Chapter 55 - 55. Rivalry

Third person POV

Weisheng immediately threw away the file and ran out of the room. Qiyi and Qier were terrified by Weisheng's action, they quickly hid the files and followed Weisheng. ( Weisheng's bodyguard) Weisheng stomped his way to Lotus Pavilion and was greeted by Hong er being hugged by 3 boys.

He immediately stepped up and hugged Hong er from behind, he snatched Hong er from the three of them. They were surprised by the newcomer, even Hong er was shocked when a giant suddenly tightly hugged her. Weisheng put his right hand around Hong er's shoulder and his left hand around Hong er's waist. He put his face on her neck crook, inhaling her jasmine scent.

He glared at the three Xu little brothers while protectively hugging Hong er. And the dense Hong er gently patted his head and laughed.

Hong er: " Hahaha, Sheng ge, what are you doing?"

Weisheng: " nothing."

Hong er: " Oh! Let me introduce you to these three cute little boys. This is Liang er, this one is Rui er, and this little one is Yu er. They are very lovely right?"

When three of them heard Hong er called them lovely, they smugly smirked at Weisheng. They had been glaring at each other since Weisheng came and hugged Hong er. Hong er who was clueless introduced Weisheng to the three little Xu brothers.

Hong er: " Everyone, this handsome brother right here is Sheng ge. Please be kind to him because he is an important person to Jiejie."

Weisheng was dumbfounded by Hong er's words.

Weisheng: ' Handsome…important…'

Overexcited by Hong er's words, Weisheng kissed Hong er's cheek for a few times before he snuggled to her. Lin Yingyue who was silently standing at the side was flabbergasted, she knew about Weisheng's identity since he lived beside Xu residence a year ago. But she never seen his affection towards Hong er with her own eyes. Sometimes he would smile gently to Hong er when he talked to her, but never this shameless. But she chose to shut her mouth as Hong er wasn't bothered by him.

Xu Yongliang: " Stop, you giant!"

Xu Yongrui: " Let go of Hong Jiejie!"

Xu Zhaoyu: " Hong Jiejie, come here, we will protect you from that giant!"

Hong er: " Hahaha, he really is a giant but he isn't a bad guy."

Weisheng: " En, Hong er knows me the best."

Hong er: " Okay, okay. Since it is your first day here, I will reward the three of you with my special chicken herbal soup."

The three little Xu brother: " Really?! Yay! Hong Jiejie's chicken herbal soup is the best!"

Lin Yingyue: " Hong er, can you cook some for me to bring it home?"

Hong er: " Sure!"

Lin Yingyue: " My husband had been noisy about your soup."

Hong er: " Hahaha, then I will excuse myself."

Lin Yingyue: " En."

Hong er wanted to move but Weisheng was still hugging her tightly. Hong er patted his arm and smiled at him.

Hong er: " Sheng ge, could you please let me go?"

Weisheng's face was planted on Hong er's neck, he moved his head and peeked Hong er's smiling face. He planted back his face and shook his head.

Hong er: " Hahaha, Sheng ge, please act up your age. You can hug other girls, I have to cook."

Weisheng flinched by Hong er's words, he lifted up his head and directly looked at Hong er's eyes. He scrunched his eyebrows, Hong er was a bit uncomfortable with Weisheng's stares so she looked away. But Weisheng gently turned her head with his hand on her cheek. His voice was desperate.

Weisheng: " I only want y-"

The three little Xu brothers: " Hong Jiejie!"

Then Hong er whipped her head towards them.

Hong er: " Yes?"

Xu Zhaoyu: " We are hungry, could you please quickly cook for us? Pretty please~~"

Hong er: " Okay."

Hong er faced Weisheng again and gently pushed him away.

Hong er: " Sheng ge, I'm sorry, I will listen to what you want to say before at dinner. I need to go. Bye~"

Then Hong er quickly escaped from Weisheng's embrace. Weisheng gazed at his empty arms, he turned his face towards the three little Xu brothers and glared at them. The three of them jolted, they were scared but they didn't want to lose to Weisheng. They glared back even though their bodies were shaking from fear.

Weisheng was too heartbroken to fight with them, he dejectedly walked back to his study room. Qiyi and Qier who looked at the situation was starting to sweat. They were afraid but pitied their master.

Qiyi & Qier: ' Young Miss, how can you say such hurtful words?!'
