Chapter 1299: Yaoyao Likes Miaomiao!
"Miaomiao, have you seen your brother? You should call him brother!"
On the video call, Ye Qingcao was holding her daughter Yan Miao, trying hard to introduce Yan Miao to Huo Yao.
Almost two-year-old Yan Miao had developed her language skills quite well and could already say many words.
Ye Qingcao taught her to say brother, and her little mouth opened and she called out in a cute voice, "Brother~"
"Hee hee hee..."
Huo Yao immediately beamed with a smile and turned to Pu Sangzhi, "Mom, she called me brother!"
"Yes, you are already her brother. Sister Miaomiao will also come to play at our house someday." Seeing Huo Yao’s smile, Pu Sangzhi understood that he was in a good mood.
She pinched the little guy’s cheek and explained to Ye Qingcao in the video, "Our brother Yaoyao got abandoned by a little girl today and is sulking alone."
"No worries, Sister Miaomiao will keep brother company."
Ye Qingcao moved Yan Miao in front of her, fitting both Yan Miao’s cute round face and two-thirds of Ye Qingcao’s face into the camera.
Yan Miao had a small ponytail, wore pink clothes, had fair skin and red lips, with chubby cheeks; she looked incredibly adorable!
Huo Yao liked this little sister at first sight!
"Brother~"
Yan Miao’s rosy little mouth called again.
"Hehe, Mom! Sister called me again!"
Huo Yao cheerfully turned, poking the screen with his finger to tell Pu Sangzhi.
The little guy was very happy.
"Yes, sister called you again."
Pu Sangzhi also smiled, "Sister is still very young and doesn’t understand many things. When she grows a bit older, you can play together."
"Okay! Yaoyao wants to play with the sister!"
Huo Yao excitedly raised his small fist, happily shouted.
On the other side of the video, Ye Qingcao was overjoyed after hearing this, "Okay, Sister Miaomiao will wait for Brother Yaoyao to come over! Sister really wants to play with brother, right, sister?"
"Brother~ Brother~"
Yan Miao repeated the word cheerfully without caring whether she understood it or not.
Listening to the little sister’s adorable voice, Huo Yao was so delighted that he twisted his small body, tugging at Pu Sangzhi’s clothes, "Mom~ I want to meet the sister~ Where is the sister! Let sister come visit us! We have a puppy at home! A very good and well-behaved puppy!"
"Alright~"
Ye Qingcao agreed, and as an adult, she was also thrilled like the kids, "How about I visit you this summer? Is that okay?"
"Yes!" Huo Yao answered gleefully.
"This summer might... not be possible, Xiaocao."
Unexpectedly, Pu Sangzhi apologized and refused the idea.
Both Huo Yao and Ye Qingcao were disappointed.
Ye Qingcao was very disappointed.
"Why? I haven’t seen you in ages, Sangzhi~ Don’t you want me as a friend anymore?" Ye Qingcao said displeasedly.
"How could that be..."
Pu Sangzhi chuckled lightly, "Didn’t Yan Siyuan tell you? This summer, Huo Feng and I plan to take the kids on an RV trip, which should last two months and will end before September 1. So this summer, we won’t have time."
"An RV trip! What an amazing plan!"
Even through the screen, Pu Sangzhi could feel her ears hurting from Ye Qingcao’s shrill voice.
"Ah~ I envy your family of three so much, you know how to enjoy life!"
Ye Qingcao spoke with immense envy while pinching Yan Miao’s chubby cheek, playing with her face as she talked.
Pu Sangzhi had a peculiar feeling watching Ye Qingcao with the child.
Will she play badly with the kid?
"Hahaha, Sister Miaomiao is so cute~"
Seeing Ye Qingcao pinching Yan Miao’s chubby cheeks, Huo Yao laughed heartily and was very pleased.
Returning to the topic, Ye Qingcao seriously asked Pu Sangzhi, "But how can the two of you take a two-month trip? Don’t you need to work? Doesn’t Feng have to work? Feng is the CEO! If he leaves, won’t my husband be even busier? He needs to manage both companies!"
Pu Sangzhi squinted and smiled, "Yan Siyuan is so capable, he can manage both companies."
"Ah~ that’s so unfair!"
Ye Qingcao screamed, "I can’t stand it! This year you’re going RV traveling, next year it’s our turn! Feng should manage two companies next year too! Give my husband a two-month vacation, let him spend time with me and my daughter!"
Just as Ye Qingcao said this, the door opened and Huo Feng entered with a plate of fruit, overhearing her words.
"Little green grass is talking nonsense again!"
She, of course, faced Huo Feng’s merciless denial.
Ye Qingcao heard Feng’s voice and shouted from across the screen, "Feng! I’m not happy! How could you leave my husband struggling all alone? I demand you give my husband a two-month vacation next year!"
"It’s impossible."
Huo Feng directly refused.
He squeezed onto the bed with Pu Sangzhi and their child, forcing the family of three into the camera to face Ye Qingcao and her daughter.
Seeing the adorable outfit of their daughter in the other family was enough to ignite jealousy in Huo Feng’s heart.
He was determined not to let Ye Qingcao get her way.
Huo Feng said, "Let me tell you this, at Yuanfeng Company, if I’m gone for two months, there’s no problem at all. If your husband disappears for two months, the company would go bankrupt! I’m not exaggerating~"
As he spoke, Huo Feng popped a strawberry into his mouth, and then fed one to Pu Sangzhi.
Then he passed the entire fruit plate to Huo Yao, letting him grab fruit himself. He wouldn’t feed Huo Yao.
Huo Yao picked up a strawberry with a chubby hand and wanted another one when Huo Feng had already moved the plate back to his side...
Huo Yao’s bewildered eyes looked at Huo Feng; Huo Feng didn’t pay attention to him at all.
"Feng, don’t think I believe you just because you said that! You were merely making yourself sound useless to make my husband take on more work!"
Ye Qingcao bluntly exposed Feng’s cunning plan.
"It’s true! Your husband manages the company’s quality, while I handle development. If the company loses me, it would only develop a bit slower but still hold its ground in the industry. But if it loses your husband, well... no products, no quality, no future." Huo Feng bit into an apple slice and then stuffed an apple slice into Pu Sangzhi’s mouth.
Pu Sangzhi hadn’t even finished chewing the strawberry before he offered her the apple slice; she frowned but still accepted it.
Between them...
Huo Yao looked up to see Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi, eyes fixated on Huo Feng’s fruit plate.
Huo Feng showed no intention of offering him any fruit.
Huo Feng’s attention was still on the video with Ye Qingcao!
"Hmph! I can’t argue with you, Feng! My husband really agreed to give you two months off for RV traveling? Truly agreed?" Ye Qingcao sounded incredulous.
Her disbelief was understandable.
Because initially, Yan Siyuan indeed disagreed with Huo Feng taking a two-month trip.
Later, Huo Feng proposed to stream online while traveling, using his personal influence to promote the company’s development.
Eventually, Yan Siyuan agreed to Huo Feng’s request.
In fact, Yan Siyuan knew clearly that Huo Feng’s journey wouldn’t be easy.
Though they said it was a trip, it would prove much more tiring than work.
"He agreed."
Huo Feng smiled, "Think about it, in the years when Sangzhi wasn’t here, I worked overtime at the company every New Year. Wouldn’t he have a guilty conscience if he didn’t give me some holiday?"
Ye Qingcao pouted, "Alright then! Your family of three should have a good time! I and my daughter can only envy your family..."
Ye Qingcao continued pinching Yan Miao’s chubby cheeks.
Huo Feng looked at Ye Qingcao’s daughter...
Heh...
As if he didn’t envy their family as well!
He was envious of their daughter too!
After chatting with Ye Qingcao for a while, they hung up, and Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng started discussing the RV trip.
Huo Feng ate fruit while feeding Pu Sangzhi, focused entirely on her.
Later, Huo Yao proactively reached his chubby hand out to grab a strawberry from the fruit plate, and Pu Sangzhi noticed, bringing him between the two...
Finally, Huo Yao got to eat his strawberry.
The little guy took a big bite of the strawberry, looked up, and saw Huo Feng biting an apple slice, saying to Pu Sangzhi, "Honey, eat the apple piece from my mouth."
Pu Sangzhi: "..."
Huo Yao: "..."
