170 “Zhao’s Daughter [NP]” Chapter 169

Chapter 168 Butler Huo comes in person

Facing Gao Qinxue’s smiling eyes, Zhao Shuyu was silent for a moment and then nodded slowly.

When Gao Xiheng saw this, his expression immediately softened.

But still with a bad face, he took something out from behind and stuffed it in front of Zhao Shuyu.

“Here, take it.”

Zhao Shuyu lowered her eyes and saw that it was actually a frog lantern.

Gao Xiheng actually bought that lantern and waited for her here all the time?

For a moment, Zhao Shuyu felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

It seems a little warm, but more of it is inexplicable.

There has never been anything good between Gao Xiheng and her, and just now he publicly laughed at her for falling in love with this frog lantern.

But he didn’t expect to buy it for her again in a blink of an eye.

But there was still a look of disgust on his face.

Seeing that Zhao Shuyu did not reach out to take the lantern, Gao Xiheng soon became a little overwhelmed.

Seeing that he was about to have another attack, Gao Qinxue took the initiative to take the lantern and put it in Zhao Shuyu’s hand.

“This lantern is different. It’s very cute. It’s quite similar to sister Yu’er. Please accept it, sister.”

Zhao Shuyu glanced at Gao Qinxue and felt that her words sounded a little strange.

Moreover, they were clearly not together just now, but Gao Qinxue said that they were watching the lights together——

Zhao Shuyu didn’t know if Gao Qinxue had found clues from those reed leaves, but she saw that Gao Qinxue looked calm and composed, but she, the eavesdropper, behaved very unnaturally.

Zhao Shuyu reluctantly accepted the lantern handed to her by Gao Qinxue, feeling really at a loss.

However, Gao Qinxue still smiled brightly, “My cousin has a bad temper. Sister Yu’er, you have to be more tolerant in the future.”

These words were really ambiguous, and even Gao Xiheng heard the difference. His face suddenly turned red, but he frowned and said, “Third cousin, what are you talking about? Who should let this stinky girl have to deal with it! You don’t know how arrogant and domineering this stinky girl is on weekdays-”

Zhao Shuyu was made angry when Gao Xiheng called her “stinky girl” to the left and “stinky girl” to her right, but it was difficult to get angry because Gao Qinxue was here.

Just as Gao Xiheng was chattering endlessly, a large carriage drove up and stopped next to the three of them.

The car curtain was lifted from the inside, revealing half of an indifferent face, “Fourth Miss, it’s time to go home.”

Zhao Shuyu was stunned, “Huo, Butler Huo?”

Huo Yikun, the chief manager of the Zhao Mansion, came to the west of the city to pick up the fourth young lady Zhao Shuyu back to his home.

At this time, there were several sisters from the Gao family standing not far away. Everyone heard the voice and looked curious on their faces.

It is said that the Zhao family’s properties in Jinzhou are all managed by Huo Yikun.

Huo Yikun is smart and acts as well as Zhao Xingyuan, but he is willing to be subordinate to others and become a general manager of the Zhao family.

But in Jinzhou City, anyone with a little knowledge knows that the chief manager of the Zhao family is not an easy person to get along with.

If you want to meet and talk with him, the schedule must be arranged in half a month.

As for bringing the young lady back to his home, why bother him to do it himself when it could be solved by just sending a groom and a girl?

Everyone couldn’t help but look at Zhao Shuyu and sighed in their hearts. It seemed that this little daughter of the Zhao family was really extremely valuable.

The appearance of Huo Yikun gave Zhao Shuyu a reason to leave openly.

After saying goodbye to Gao Qinxue and Gao Xiheng, Zhao Shuyu turned around and got into her carriage.

The beam of this large carriage was quite high. Even though the driver put a low stool on the ground, it was a little difficult for Zhao Shuyu to get on it.

Not to mention that she was holding a frog lantern in her hand, and her petite body was swaying. The moment she stepped onto the beam of the carriage, a hand suddenly stretched out from inside, held her arm steadily, and pulled her in.

Then the heavy curtain was lowered, the coachman got into the car, rode away.
