Chapter 4012: A Perfect Match (208)

The actor said, “She’s been busy recently and doesn’t have time to come, so she asked me to send the gift over to thank you for your hospitality and care throughout our vacation. In addition, she asked me to wish Yueyao a happy birthday on her behalf.”

As he spoke, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. Do people really have a sixth sense? At least he thought so! Because… he obviously could feel the sinister presence of the demon king right behind him.

Horrified, he turned around and indeed, saw Gong Jie standing behind him, looking as though he was surveying him from above.

Gulp. The sound of swallowing.

Yun Shishi looked at the actor, then swept her gaze over to her brother, not knowing how to react. Somehow, whenever the two of them run into each other, they were always in this low-pressure standoff. They didn’t get along at all!

Frustrated, she tugged at her brother’s sleeve. “Why… are you staring at Hua Jin as if you want to swallow him alive?”

Gong Jie turned to face her and immediately smiled warmly. “Why would I? Big Sister.” He smiled as gently as he could at her.

The actor quickly diverted his attention. He knelt in front of Yueyao and clapped his hands to get her attention.

“Shall Uncle Hua Jin accompany you to unwrap the presents?”

Yueyao shook her head and said in her childish voice, “I’m tired of unwrapping. I want to play with this.”

The little guy was only three years old, hence she spoke in a childish voice and manner. If one had to describe it, she was like a kitten that had just weaned, she was babbling. Now she finally had a row of new teeth. When she smiled, it was like a mosaic of beautiful shells.

Because it was her birthday, Yun Shishi had dressed Yueyao in a beautiful princess dress. The loose hem wrapped around her fair and tender legs, and she wore a “Frozen”-style crown on her head.

Everyone who saw her simply wanted to pick her up and give her a hug. However, not everyone could carry this noble little princess. With the twins and Mu Yazhe, the daughter slave, around, there was usually no chance for her little feet to touch the ground.

She had always said that even a girl should not be so spoiled, in case she ended up suffering from princess syndrome.

So what did the man say in the end? Mu Yazhe’s daughter is a princess to begin with, so why would she suffer from princess syndrome?

In a rare move, Gong Jie supported his brother-in-law’s perspective. “Our Yueyao was born a little princess. What’s wrong with being as delicate as a princess?”

As much as Yun Shishi was amused, she also had some vague concerns. Just Mu Yazhe and Gong Jie alone had spoilt Yueyao rotten. And on top of this, the girl’s twin brothers.

However, the most ridiculous thing was that even though Yun Shishi did not spoil Yueyao much, the girl seemed closest to her. Mu Yazhe was equally surprised.

Once, he’d specifically asked Yueyao about everyone’s ranking order in her mind. That was how Yueyao prioritized. Yun Shishi was the greatest! Below, in that order, Mu Yazhe, Youyou, Gong Jie, Little Yichen, Hua Jin…

Gong Jie felt especially aggrieved! He doted on Yueyao as much as her father did. Why was he so far down the list?

Actually, he was usually too busy. Now that he was in charge of the Gong family’s matters, he was always flying around and rarely accompanied Yueyao. It was the same for Mu Yazhe. Yun Shishi accompanied Yueyao the most, more than anyone else.
