Chapter 1118: Chapter 1117: He’s Thirteen Years Old

Luo Yirui was just teasing him, and seeing this, she asked, "How did you know I was fooling you?"

Little Fatty was initially a bit displeased, but when he saw Luo Yirui admitting it openly, he realized this kid was actually teasing him!

"Of course, who would like that girl Lu Xuehan? She once made a joke out of insisting on an arranged marriage between her family and the Hou Family just because of Hou Baiyu, but the Hou Family refused to agree no matter what, disgusting Hou Baiyu. Since then, he completely ignored Lu Xuehan. I heard Lu Xuehan even threatened to jump into the river afterwards, whether it was for real or not, who knows? Anyway, she’s living just fine now."

Luo Yirui was dumbfounded, not expecting such a melodramatic thing to happen. How old are they? Lu Xuehan is ten, and Hou Baiyu, seven or eight, maybe eight or nine years old? At this age, they’re clamoring for an engagement?

Wait a minute, Luo Yirui suddenly realized a problem: Hou Baiyu looks younger than Lu Xuehan, but Lu Xuehan calls him Brother Baiyu?

Does she want to call him that?

"Hou Baiyu isn’t much older than me," Luo Yirui asked.

Little Fatty had an odd expression, "Not at all, Hou Baiyu is already thirteen! But he looks seven or eight years old, isn’t that strange?"

Luo Yirui opened his mouth, surprised he’s actually thirteen. Why does he look so different?

However, despite Hou Baiyu’s youthful appearance, he’s not short in stature, so maybe he’s just naturally baby-faced?

Little Fatty looked at Luo Yirui coolly, "Hurry up and tell me, I’ve already answered two of your questions!"

The second question is actually something you could find out easily, so it’s not a secret.

Luo Yirui spread his hands, "He praised me."

Little Fatty was stunned, seeing Luo Yirui speaking nonchalantly this time, and frowned, "Are you tricking me again?"

"Really, I’m not joking this time, he really praised me." Luo Yirui said with a smile.

Little Fatty kept a straight face, "How did he praise you?"

"He said I wasn’t too bad," Luo Yirui thought for a moment and said.

"What else did he say?"

"That’s it. In such a short time, just those two sentences."

Little Fatty knew that indeed it was like that in such short time. If what Luo Yirui said is true, then this kid must be something else. He had never heard Hou Baiyu praising anyone before, not even Nie Kaihuan got that treatment.

But is it really true?

Little Fatty actually had no way to judge, just like Luo Yirui couldn’t determine whether Hou Baiyu was really adopted or not.

However, the fact that Hou Baiyu actively sought out Luo Yirui for conversation suggests that Luo Yirui is special compared to other kids. If he indeed praised him, Little Fatty thought he might pay more attention to Luo Yirui.

To prove if it’s true, honestly, it would just take more interaction with Luo Yirui.

Little Fatty wasn’t interested in hanging out with the family kids anyway. Among those who came, none were his preferred playmates. So he’d rather stick with Luo Yirui.

After Luo Yirui finished speaking, seeing that Little Fatty had no intention of leaving and seemed to want a heart-to-heart, he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, wondering what Little Fatty was up to now.

"It’s this time already and there seems to be no plan from the Nie Family. Looks like we’ll have to entertain ourselves," Little Fatty said.

It was already half past ten, and still no one from the Nie Family had come to invite them. There were quite a few people from different clan sects gathered by the lake, some already heading towards the castle, while others were walking further along the lake.

Only the people from the Modern Family stayed by the lake, still waiting for any potential plans from the Nie Family.
