Grandpa He coaxed in a low voice: Baby, be good!

"Student Mai Xiaosui, you are getting more and more daring. You even skipped classes without reason. Don't you know that you have a class with Nun Miejue today? You..." Xi Yan's noisy voice came over.

"She's sleeping." He Lingting didn't want her to wake the girl up, so he reminded her.

"What? You're still sleeping at past nine o'clock? Oh, by the way, who are you?" Xi Yan suddenly heard the man's voice and asked worriedly.

Xiaomai in the bedroom was awakened by hunger at this time. She felt her stomach was empty and couldn't fall asleep at all, so she got up and finally got enough sleep. She walked out of the room barefoot and saw He Lingting answering the phone. She wanted to leave quietly, but He Lingting also saw her.

"Your phone," he said and handed the phone to Xiaomai.

"mine?"

"Ok!"

"Who is it? What time is it now?" She muttered to herself as she answered the phone.

"Who do you say I am? It's already past nine o'clock, and you've perfectly missed the jewelry design class. Just wait for Master Miejue to kill this immature ear of wheat!" Xi Yan teased Xiaomai with glee.

"What? It's past nine o'clock. It's over, it's over..." Xiaomai shouted anxiously.

"I was just kidding. Don't worry, I've already asked for leave for you."

"I was so scared. Thank God, Xiao Yanyan, you are really my savior!"

"Of course. Given our relationship, how can I watch you get criticized, right?" Xi Yan boasted.

"By the way, Xiao Yanyan, what did you tell the teacher? The teacher will ask me tomorrow and I have to match it up!"

"I...I said you sprained your foot yesterday, and it was badly swollen when you woke up this morning. You need to see a doctor, so I'm taking a day off today." Xi Yan said hesitantly.

"What? You mean I have to pretend to be crippled tomorrow?" Xiaomai said gritting her teeth.

"There's nothing I can do about it." Xi Yan said aggrievedly.

He Lingting listened to the two girls chatting animatedly, he simply sat on the sofa and admired the little girl's expression. The little girl was anxious, smiling, trying to please, and then furious. He felt so soft in his heart, how could there be such a cute little girl, whose fair face could have so many changing expressions.

When He Xinting heard Xiaomai say that she was pretending to be lame, he naturally looked at Xiaomai's feet. His brows tightened when he saw this, and he stood up, walked to Xiaomai, bent down and picked up Xiaomai.

"Ah!" He Lingting's action scared Xiaomai. As He Lingting was 1.9 meters tall, Xiaomai was worried that she would fall down, so she hurriedly hugged the man's neck with both hands, with their faces almost touching. He Lingting's mouth corners slightly raised, and his heart was filled with happiness, but Xiaomai's face turned red with shame.

The little girl blushed and looked at him in confusion. He said seriously, "You are not wearing shoes."

"Oh, I forgot." Xiaomai said nonchalantly, shaking her delicate little feet.

"Sit here and chat." He Lingting put Xiaomai on the sofa and squatted down to put her shoes on. Xiaomai felt very warm in her heart. She had grown up so big, and besides her grandmother and Xi Yan, only uncles could do this for her.

"Mai Xiaosui, there is a man next to you. Who is he? Tell the truth quickly." Xi Yan's shouting voice came again.

"No one else!" Xiaomai muttered guiltily.

"I heard everything. I tried so hard to find a way to ask for leave for you, but you secretly met with a man outside..."

"Don't talk nonsense. I'll tell you tomorrow. Bye." Without waiting for Xi Yan to say anything else, Xiaomai quickly hung up the phone.
