Chapter 713: Chapter 717: This is Love
Ye Xingbei was both amused and helpless. She took the little guy from Qiao Zui’s arms, poked his little head and said, “Xiao Shumiao, ‘determined despite defects’ doesn’t apply here. Your cousin isn’t disabled. Saying such things can hurt his feelings.”
Xiao Shumiao hugged Ye Xingbei’s neck and asked in confusion, “Why?”
Lingyue said, “Because you should never point out other people’s shortcomings.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
Qiao Zui: “…”
Luckily, his heart was strong enough, otherwise, he would definitely vomit blood in anger because of these two.
The little sapling was still clueless and was about to ask again when the housekeeper hurriedly walked over, “Madam, Cousin of Young master, Miss Mi and Miss Situ have returned.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
Well, next to Qiao Zui, she lost the “young” part of her “Young Madam” title!
She was really young!
She was indeed very young!
She didn’t want to be called “Madam” at all!
On hearing that Mi Sheng had returned, Qiao Zui was all smiles. He took Xiao Shumiao back from Ye Xingbei and said, “Let’s go, baby, let’s check your cousin sister-in-law.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
She had to repeat it again — Student Xiao Qiao and Fifth Lord of Gu were indeed nephew and uncle. Like uncle, like nephew, both were shameless to the core!
When they returned to the living room, Ye Xingbei was shocked by the sight before her.
The living room was filled with dozens of shopping bags of various sizes.
Seeing Ye Xingbei, Mi Sheng quickly greeted her, “Aunt.”
Ye Xingbei twitched the corners of her lips, thinking about Student Xiao Qiao’s enthusiasm for Mi Sheng, she could only bear it and said, “Xiao Mi, Jinse, you are back.”
“Yes,” Mi Sheng bent down and picked up a bag at her feet, “Aunt, Jinse and I didn’t bring any gifts for you and uncle last night because it was unexpected. We went out just now and bought some gifts for you, uncle, Xiao Shu and Xiao Yue. I hope you like them.”
Ye Xingbei quickly said, “Xiao Mi, you are too polite, why did you buy so many things?”
These two girls were too generous. How did they manage to bring so many things back from their homes?
Mi Sheng and Situ Jinse took out the things they had bought one by one from the bags and put them on the coffee table.
There were clothes, jewelry, health products, as well as toys and study materials for the children. There were dozens of items, big and small.
Ye Xingbei kept saying, “You two are too courteous, why did you buy so many things? It must have cost a lot.”
“Not at all,” Mi Sheng shook her head, “Thanks to Instructor Qiao’s help last night, Jinse and I didn’t encounter any danger. We also appreciate you for taking us in, or we wouldn’t have been able to sleep soundly last night. We are grateful to both you and Instructor Qiao.”
“Yes indeed,” Situ Jinse echoed, “Especially since the mansion is so beautiful and safe, no matter how you look at it, Xiao Mi and I are the ones who have benefited. Please, don’t be so formal with us.”
The items were already bought, and Ye Xingbei certainly couldn’t let them return them.
They could only reciprocate in the future.
Looking at the value of the gifts brought by Mi Sheng and Situ Jinse, as well as their demeanor and conversation, Ye Xingbei could see that both girls came from well-off families.
But that was secondary. More importantly, Ye Xingbei had noticed that Student Xiao Qiao was not just casually interested in Mi Sheng.
It was apparent that Mi Sheng also had feelings for Student Xiao Qiao.
It was because she cared, that’s why she was so thoughtful and bought so many expensive gifts.
