Mr. You, Please Dote On Me

Chapter 125: Can You Afford to Support Her?



“I’ve been thinking about visiting your grandpa, but was afraid to meet the Qins there. Alas, He was healthy and always came here for meals a few days ago. How could this suddenly happen to him?”

Shi Nian poured tea for them while lamenting.

“Why not?” Shiyao looked straight into her mother, who was confused by her question.

“You haven’t done anything wrong. Why don’t you dare to face them?” Shiyao hysterically roared. Why the culprit remained at large and they had to be tolerant all the time?

“Yaoyao, don’t talk with your mother in that tone!” Feeling the embarrassment of his sister, Shi Xiang hurriedly stopped Shiyao.

Shiyao sneered, wondering why her mother was such a coward.

Being cut to the quick, Shi Nian froze in situ with her mouth sadly open. She didn’t know why Shiyao suddenly said so. An awkward silence followed, and You Ze took Shiyao away after a few words.

Shi Nian almost collapsed to the ground as she watched her daughter leave without looking back.

Shi Xiang gave his sister a reassuring pat on the shoulder. As their eyes met, they understood each other’s grief.

Shiyao leaned against the car window with her eyes closed. You Ze had no choice but to drive her home.

In the living room, Jiang Fengyi listened to the butler reading news, her pale fingers holding on to crutches.

“How dare they!”

Jiang Fengyi was pissed off, which greatly frightened the butler who had not seen her get angry for many years.

Upon walking into the living room, Shiyao heard Nana’s angry voice, so she put on a sweet smile and took Nana’s arm to gently appease her,

“Oh, Nana, calm down.”

“This is clearly nonsense! You must stop them!”

Jiang Fengyi shouted to You Ze, who glanced around, sat on the couch and caught a glimpse of the newspaper.

“Since you know this is nonsense, Nana, why are you so angry?”

“Bullshit! I’ll never allow anyone to discredit the You family! Solve the problem as soon as possible!” Jiang Fengyi’s silver hair shook slightly with anger. She was old, but it didn’t mean that the Yous were easy to bully!

The constant challenging of her bottom line finally ticked her off. Those arrogant guys really thought the Yous were all pushovers!

Considering her health, Shiyao quickly appeased Jiang Fengyi in a gentle tone, and repeatedly assured her that they would solve these problems as soon as possible.

Jiang Fengyi lovingly took Shiyao’s arm in hers, with distress in her eyes. The audacity of the Qin family was beyond her expectation. Jiang Fengyi felt aggrieved at what Shiyao had suffered.

You Ze lounged on the couch, leisurely tasted the newly bought tea, and turned a deaf ear to what they said. It was not until Xiao Qing took Nana to play chess that the living room regained its tranquility.

Shiyao slumped on the sofa, drowsy.

“How do you think I should investigate?” Shiyao was careless and simple, and had never done anything to hurt others. She could figure out neither the Qin’s trick nor how to start. Nevertheless, she believed that You Ze was innocent, just as Jiang Fengyi had trusted her unconditionally.

“Just stay at home and don’t make trouble.” You Ze said faintly. Shiyao rolled her eyes at him and sighed repeatedly.

“Well, I’m going to bed.”

Worn-out, Shiyao decided to have a good sleep right now. Then she would try to find a solution.

You Ze smiled and shook his head. These rumors were nothing to him. A clean hand wants no washing. He really didn’t know why Nana was so anxious.

It was already dark after she woke up from a sound sleep. The clock on the wall showed not yet seven o’clock. Shiyao got up and took a shower, refreshing herself.

Recalling the quarrel with her mother today, Shiyao felt a little guilty. She sent an apology message to her mother with her mobile phone and sighed helplessly.

Suddenly, a stranger sent her a friend request on Wechat. Shiyao clicked the icon curiously and found the Avatar was a handsome cat.

“Who is it?” Shiyao accepted the request, quickly dried her hair and slipped downstairs. Everyone had been seated around the dining room table. Shiyao touched her flat stomach. She was already starving.

“You Ze is going to get you!” Xiao Qing smiled and patted the chair next to her, motioning Shiyao to sit beside her.

“Eh? Where’s Nana?” Shiyao looked around and couldn’t find Jiang Fengyi.

“Nana went out for dinner with her friends. Don’t worry.”

Xiao Qing gave Shiyao a bowl of soup. They didn’t have such a leisurely and nice dinner for a long time.

“Wow! It smells good!” Shiyao greedily sniffed. This really tickled her taste buds.

“Pig!”

You Ze murmured. Shiyao gave You Ze a glare, and went on eating with a better appetite.

Shiyao was not affected by his words at all, but enjoyed the food even more.

“You’d better slow down.”

Shiyao smiled innocently at Xiao Qing. She would pig out when she was down, for food made her happy. So, under Xiao Qing and You Ze’s astonished gaze, she ate two bowls of rice and almost polished off the dishes on the table. By this time, Xiao Qing and You Ze had just started.

“I’m full. I’m going back to my room.” Shiyao was satisfied and wiped her mouth. Then she went back with a round stomach.

“You’d better get back to business,” Xiao Qing raised her head and looked at You Ze. Shiyao really had an enormous appetite!

“Why?”

“Do you think you can afford to support her?”

“…”

Shiyao lay leisurely on the bed, in an extremely good mood.

“Buzz…”

The phone kept buzzing. Shiyao turned on it and saw a few unknown messages on the screen.

“You are?”

Shiyao looked at the Avatar and found that he was the one she just accepted.

“I’m Xing Shenzhi.”

“Eh,” Shiyao sent him a smiling face emoji.

“Hello, what is the matter?”

“Um… No big deal. I’m just feeling bad.”

“Oh? For what?”

“I lost my job.” Xing Shenzhi reluctantly replied with a sad face emoji.

“Ah? Why?” Duoduo jumped onto the bed and rubbed itself against Shiyao’s face. She felt itchy and started to giggle.

“I don’t know. The boss fired me without telling me the reason.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“What? How can there be a boss like this? Where do you work?” Shiyao couldn’t help sympathizing with Xing Shenzhi. It was a nightmare to have such a boss.

“UK Group.”

Shiyao was astonished. He worked for You Ze.

“Eh… There must be some misunderstanding,” Shiyao replied, embarrassed.

“Maybe. I got an email early this morning. I don’t even know what’s going on.”

Xing Shenzhi gently clicked to send, a playful smile spreading across his mouth. She was really a nice girl, but that was what made the game more interesting.
