"Don't be afraid. You saw it today too. Butler Zhao and my brother are both easy to get along with, as is Huo Huo. You'll see when you meet him tomorrow."

I'll only be gone for two days, I'll be back soon. Call me if you need anything. Don't stay cooped up at home all the time, go out whenever you want, you can take Tang Jun or Lin Zuo with you.

"Mmm!" Song Chuxia nestled in his arms and nodded in a muffled voice. "Brother Tang Yu, please be careful on your journey. Don't worry about me. I'll take good care of myself."

"Ok!"

After Tang Yu agreed, he released the person.

She took off the agarwood prayer bead bracelet that she always wore and placed it in Chu Xia's hand.

"This Buddhist prayer bead bracelet was left to me by my father, and I have been wearing it ever since I returned to Nancheng."

So basically anyone from a prominent family in Nancheng will recognize it. If you're going out in the next couple of days, take it with you.

If you encounter trouble outside, show it to others, and no one will dare to make things difficult for you anymore.

Chu Xia's slender, pale fingers held the prayer beads, and she obediently nodded.

Tang Yu hugged the person again, reluctant to part, then turned and left.

The next morning.

Just like yesterday, I took a book and sat on the sofa on the first floor to bask in the sun.

A moment later, the sound of footsteps approached, and then a cute little boy with curly hair ran in.

After Tang Yan entered, he intended to rush straight to Tang Jun's room as usual. However, halfway there, he noticed a pretty young woman watching him.

He immediately turned a corner.

As soon as Chu Xia saw the child walking towards her, she immediately sat up straight, flashed her warmest smile, and asked softly, "Are you Huo Huo?"

Upon hearing his name called, Tang Yan's eyes lit up. He quickly ran to Song Chuxia's side, and with a powerful scramble of his chubby legs, he climbed up to her.

I sat down next to Chu Xia on the sofa.

"Sister, it's me, Huo Huo! How do you know me?"

The little boy's soft arm pressed against her, and Chu Xia didn't dare to move, her heart melting. "Your uncle told me. He said you would be here today."

Tang Yan nodded, and realizing that Song Chuxia did not reject his approach, he took advantage of the situation and hugged her arm directly.

"What's your name, sister? And why are you at my second uncle's house?"

He tilted his head deliberately after he finished speaking.

No one can resist a child's cuteness, especially a beautiful child with delicate features who looks like a porcelain doll.

The early summer of the Song Dynasty was no exception.

If she hadn't still had some sense, she would have wanted to reach out and rub Tang Yan's plump cheeks a few times.

“Ahem…” Chu Xia cleared her throat, trying to keep her voice normal. “My name is Song Chu Xia. I have some family matters to attend to, so I will be staying at your second uncle’s house for a while.”

Also, according to seniority, Huo Huo, you should call me aunt, not sister.

Tang Yan turned her little head, frowned her delicate brows, and thought about it very seriously, "But I don't want to call you aunt, can I call you sister instead?"

"Why?" Chu Xia had never spent time with such young children before, and she couldn't quite figure out their thought processes.

Tang Yan sighed deeply like a little adult, looking very troubled, "Because my sister is very beautiful!"

I want my older sister to be my eighth girlfriend.

But if I call you aunt, you become my elder. You'll become like my mother. My mother says elders can't be my girlfriends.

girlfriend?

It's still the 8th one!

Song Chuxia was at a loss as to which issue to focus on first.

She wanted to explain to Tang Yan that she was already 18 years old, much older than him, and that it was impossible for her to become his girlfriend.

Furthermore, a guy should only have one girlfriend at any given time.

The problem is, can a four-year-old understand these things?

Fortunately, Tang Jun came downstairs at that moment.

Chu Xia quickly called him over and presented him with the difficult problem.

"Tang Jun, come over here and explain to Huo Huo that he should call me aunt, and that I can't be his eighth girlfriend."

Upon hearing her words, Tang Jun knew that Tang Yan had fallen back into his old habit of wanting any pretty girl to be his girlfriend.

He stepped forward and pulled the child away from Chu Xia.

In a flash, she placed him on the sofa furthest from Chu Xia.

"Tang Huohuo, according to seniority, Chuxia is your aunt. You must call her aunt, not sister."

You dare let her be your eighth girlfriend? Do you believe your second uncle will come back and give you a good beating?

Upon hearing him mention Tang Yu, Tang Yan's small frame involuntarily shrank back. He quickly covered his bottom with his chubby little hands.

But he quickly remembered what his father had told him last night: that his second uncle wasn't home today. So he immediately perked up again, "Hmph! I'm not afraid of my second uncle!"

Besides, my second uncle is so old, he must understand some of these principles.

Feelings can't be forced. As long as Chu Xia is willing to be my eighth girlfriend, he can't break us up!

"Heh!" Tang Jun sneered, and like petting a cat, he placed both hands on Tang Yan's little head and stroked it several times.

"Then ask your Aunt Chuxia if she's willing!"

Tang Yan raised both hands to hold his head and rolled his eyes at Tang Jun.

I'm going to pet him again, and pet him again!

My uncle is so annoying!

However, Tang Yan couldn't care less about arguing with him at the moment. He looked at Chu Xia expectantly with his eyes full of anticipation.

Although Chu Xia was a little soft-hearted, she still firmly shook her head.

"Waaaaahh ...

Chu Xia thought she had made the child cry, so she stood up immediately, wanting to go and comfort him.

But Tang Jun stopped her and silently shook his head at her.

This kid has always been a drama queen, with endless tricks up his sleeve to cheat.

She only met him in early summer, which is why she was deceived by him.

He won't indulge you.

"Tang Huohuo, it's already 9:50. Hurry up and get your things ready. I'll take you to your tutoring class."

Tang Yan still wanted to play dumb, lying there without moving, "No, I'm too sad to get up. I need Aunt Chu Xia's kiss to get up."

"Ha!" Tang Jun sneered, hands on his hips. "I think you need me to slap your butt a few times before you can get up."

Upon hearing his words, Tang Yan immediately stopped crying and making a fuss.
