“Male” Became a Group Favorite with Her

Chapter 45: Battle of the Bears

Ao Jingyi was keenly aware of the change in her expression, and took a bite of the jelly, but there was no problem.

Xiaomei also keenly found that the atmosphere between the two was not right, and tears of fear quickly filled her eyes.

Yu Qiuran immediately showed her a bright smile when she saw this: "Little Cent's jelly is delicious, I was surprised because it was so delicious."

Xiaomei felt the sincerity of her praise and broke into a smile. For the first time, she took the initiative to explain to her: "I also like the desserts made by this sister."

Yu Qiuran coaxed Xiaomei and heaved a sigh of relief.

In the original book, Su Tiantian did appear at Ao Jingyi's birthday party as a part-time waiter, and she was recently thinking about how to deal with this as a "male protagonist".

But it turns out that the other party has been lurking so early (no), have you applied for it?

Afternoon tea passed in a pleasant atmosphere.

But Ao Jingyi, who did not forget this incident, returned to the room and asked the old butler who managed the manor to call up the employment list. He found that Su Tiantian was the one who was in charge of making children's desserts for Xiaomei since the summer vacation. .

He seemed to feel something, but now that his guess came true, complex emotions surged up.

A Ran only took a bite of the dessert made by the other party and found out, is Su Tiantian so special? Will "he" secretly find her later?

Ao Jingyi frowned subconsciously and said, "Compensate Su Tiantian three times her salary and dismiss her."

Seeing his gloomy expression, the old butler thought that something was wrong, and took the initiative to explain: "This employer came to apply for the job at the beginning of the summer vacation, and his background investigation is very innocent."

Because of the kidnapping incident two years ago, it was due to the lax audit of the employees of the Ao family's house. Mr. Ao and Ms. Ling only have outside work in their eyes, and they don't care too much about family affairs.

At that time, Ao Jingyi was only a half-year-old child. He knew that he was at home alone and only had all kinds of servants to accompany him growing up. So he felt very relieved to see that his sister had an aunt who was willing to accompany him.

Before he went to school that day, he ran into the female kidnapper, and the other party greeted him specially, saying that he had discussed with Xiaomei to go out to play. Looking at his sister's expectant eyes, he responded without thinking much.

In the end, Xiaomei was kidnapped, and even because the rescue was not timely, the kidnappers cut off **** as a threat.

After the investigation of the case, it became clear that Ao Jingyi's nightmare that day he personally agreed with the "nanny" to take Xiaomei out.

Since then, the auditing standards for the employees of the Ao family have been raised again and again, and Ao Jingyi is very strict in this aspect.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the old butler continued to explain: "We found out that she is a student of Shenxia Kyushu College during our investigation. She has a good reputation and good dessert skills."

"And her family was poor, so she needed such an opportunity, so I finally chose to hire her. Su Tiantian has been doing it for more than a month, and she has performed well without any problems."

Ao Jingyi came back to his senses and felt guilty for what he had just blurted out. His first reaction was to separate A Ran and Su Tiantian, but it was too despicable to do so.

The old housekeeper carefully added: "Miss likes the desserts made by Su Tiantian very much. She said that there is a taste of happiness in it, and she went to see her specially."

This is the first time Xiaomei has offered to meet a stranger since she was kidnapped.

It seems that Su Tiantian has merit, Ao Jingyi turned his back to the old housekeeper, and saw the hesitation and admonition on the other's face through the reflective glass.

He sighed: "Then leave her."

The old butler seemed very happy for Xiaomei, he saluted and walked out.

Before he closed the door, Ao Jingyi paused, but couldn't help but say, "If Young Master Yu goes to find Su Tiantian, remember to tell me."

The old butler was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to answer, he heard Ao Jingyi overturning his words a little irritably: "Forget it, don't tell me."

Ao Jingyi felt that it was not good that he wanted to monitor Ah Ran.

The old butler answered in confusion. Then he suddenly remembered something, and said, "When this classmate came to apply for the job, the lady asked her name specifically and said she was very good."

Hearing this, Ao Jingyi's eyes sank.

There is not much time left for the holiday. Before Ao Jingyi's birthday party, the four members of the Dongmang Club are planning to take Xiaomei to an amusement park.

Xiaomei has celebrated her seventh birthday at the beginning of the summer vacation. In fact, according to convention, she should have entered the primary school of Shenxia Kyushu College as early as a year ago.

But because of her autism and hand disability, Ms. Ling did not want the outside world to explore this matter too much, and planned to let Xiaomei receive education at home.

Ao Jingyi has always opposed this. He still hopes that Xiaomei can gradually have more benign contact with the outside world, get rid of the shadow of the past, and go to school like a normal child.

He did a lot of work on this. This amusement park plan is an event he has been preparing for a long time.

He specially reserved the largest amusement park in China for a whole day. After screening, he invited many people with physical disabilities or living in disabled families, but he was still brave, optimistic and friendly. Pretty little boy of the same age.

He tried to let Xiaomei learn to connect with "similars" first, feel and learn something from them, and then try to communicate with outsiders.

Although she still showed apprehension and fear, Yu Qiuran also found her expectations for the trip to the amusement park in Xiaomei's eyes.

She is very happy for Mei to take this step.

However, just when everything was going well, on this day, Ms. Ling suddenly came back early.

Ms. Ling returned to the manor through the side door and went through the central garden to go to the hall.

As she passed the garden path, she was walking and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Ms. Ling turned her head suddenly and saw Yu Qiuran who was sitting leisurely at the small round table under the flower vines, the old **** was drinking tea.

Seeing that the other party found him, Yu Qiuran calmly put down the cup and stood up, nodded at the other party: "Hello, ma'am."

Then she clapped her hands and called out calmly, "Someone."

Many servants immediately appeared in the originally silent garden. After seeing Ms. Ling, they saluted and said, "You're back, ma'am."

Then a few came over to help Ms. Ling with the umbrella under Yu Qiuran's gesture, but more of them performed their own duties - replaced Yu Qiuran with new snacks, added tea to her, She put ice in the ice mirror next to her, and carefully placed the decorated vase on the table.

Ms. Ling was a little stunned for a while, and even wondered if she had gone to the wrong place and entered the Yu Family Manor by mistake.

But she looked at the familiar dress of her servant and was convinced that it was at Ao's house.

"What's the matter, Ah Ran?" Hua Chengya came out from behind the flower wall holding a bunch of freshly picked flowers.

Yu Qiuran turned her head and said, "Ms. Ling is back. Ayi is still in the study, please let him know."

Ms. Ling saw that the bright smile on Hua Chengya's face faded. He greeted him politely and stopped talking.

Ms. Ling felt very strange. She actually felt a strong sense of rejection like an unwelcome outsider in her own home.

She pulled her face down involuntarily.

She was about to speak when she heard Yu Qiuran say: "Is Arang still digging soil with Xiaomei by the river? call."

After speaking, Yu Qiuran didn't give Ms. Ling a chance to speak at all, she turned around and smiled at her: "Then we'll leave first, ma'am, please do it yourself."

Seeing Yu Qiuran holding Hua Chengya, Shi Shiran was surrounded by everyone and left. Ms. Ling's face was ashen.

Yu Qiuran actually invited her master at Aojia Manor!

The other party is really getting more and more arrogant, not only in the academy's reputation is gradually approaching Ao Jingyi, but even in the Ao family manor, can he put on a master style!

Ms. Ling went to the study to stop and question Ao Jingyi.

In her dissatisfied expression, Ao Jingyi lightly explained the whole story to her.

The two were talking when Yu Qiuran and his party came back with Xiaomei.

Xiaomei holds a small pot of flowers in her arms. It was transplanted with the help of Hua Chengya, and just now she followed Zhan Shenlang to the river to dig fertile soil for it.

Xiaomei seems very happy to see her mother back. She trotted over and held up the small flower pot in her hand: "Mom, give it to you."

Ms. Ling smiled and took it over: "Xiaomei is really good, my mother likes it very much."

She took Xiaomei's hand and motioned to the servant to bring the person behind the door: "Xiaoyue, come and play with my sister."

Xiaomei flinched, but Ms. Ling hugged her tightly.

She put her arms around Xiaomei and persuaded in a low voice, "This is brother Xiaoyue from my uncle's house. You often played with him when you were young, have you forgotten?"

A little boy in a neat children's suit with a round face and a hairy head was held by the servants, jumped in, and said hello to everyone in a loud voice.

Xiaomei was still a little scared, but she was soothingly patted on the back by Ms. Ling, and she finally took a look at the little boy.

Ms. Ling pushed the two children together and instructed the servant: "Take them down to play."

The servants looked at Ao Jingyi hesitantly, and seeing that he had no instructions, one picked up Xiaomei and the other took Xiaoyue's hand and left.

When it was confirmed that the children were all gone, Ao Jingyi finally couldn't help asking: "What are you doing!"

Ms. Ling frowned and glanced at Yu Qiuran and the others, who seemed to be deliberately showing her authority in the family, so she dealt with her son's anger in a perfunctory tone:

"Xiaomei was better with Xiaoyueduo before the accident. I haven't seen each other for more than two years, and the relationship between relatives has faded. I heard that she is in a good mood recently, and you are not insisting on letting her date Friends? I found a familiar child, is there something wrong?"

Ao Jingyi looked cold: "But you should at least discuss with Xiaomei in advance, so that she has a psychological preparation. Bring Xiaoyue to the house rashly, in case..."

Ms. Ling cut off his words in disapproval: "Isn't there any problem? Xiaoyue will stay at home for a while, and then accompany Xiaomei to your birthday party."

Ao Jingyi took a deep breath: "I haven't decided whether to let Xiaomei participate, and I have to ask her if she wants to."

Ms. Ling glanced at Yu Qiuran and them and smiled: "I see that she gets along very well with strangers in the family, you have been clamoring for her to learn to contact outsiders. This year Your birthday banquet is a rare opportunity."

Because of Ao Jingyi's frequent participation in the affairs of the Ao family in the past six months, many times he can even take charge of himself, and can be regarded as a mature adult. So this birthday party was very grand.

Yu Qiuran looked at the confrontation between the mother and son.

Ms. Ling brought back Ling Yue, Uncle Ao Jingyi's son, ahead of time, probably with the idea of ​​letting the next generation of the Ling family show his face at the banquet.

If Ling Yue can get along well with Xiaomei and bring her to attend, it will kill two birds with one stone.

Yu Qiuran watched as Ms. Ling planted Xiaomei meticulously, and placed the little flowers she solemnly gave away.

Then she turned her head and walked to the study, calling the old housekeeper and instructing him to prepare a room and toys for Ling Yue, making sure that the two children deepened emotion.

The blooming flowers in the flowerpot hung their heads woefully.

Before leaving with Ao Jingyi, Yu Qiuran deliberately walked over and picked up the flower pot.

Many soft things, if they are not carefully cared for and cherished, will one day disappear due to too much damage.

Ao Jingyi and Ms. Ling "divide and rule" in Aojia Manor.

The two are one east and one west, and their lives basically do not interfere with each other.

Only Ling Yue was an accident, he was forced by Ms. Ling into the East Garden where Ao Jingyi lived.

In all fairness, Ling Yue is not a nasty child.

He is half a year older than Xiaomei, lively and cheerful, optimistic, full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge, and was taught very politely by Uncle Ling.

In addition to being a little boyish and naughty, he is a pretty good playmate. Therefore, he, who had a childhood relationship with Xiaomei, was quickly recognized by her.

Although Ms. Ling's move had a strong purpose, the smile on Xiaomei's face did gradually increase.

And because of the innocent heart of children, Ao Jingyi, who was unwilling to refuse too much, so as not to hurt his cousin, pinched his nose and recognized it.

Four eldest children and two young children live together in the East Garden.

After a short observation, Yu Qiuran found that Ling Yue is a little follower who likes to stick to Ao Jingyi and blow rainbow farts to him anytime, anywhere.

Maybe this little brat grew up under the brilliance of Ao Jingyi, and after hearing too much of his cousin's glorious deeds, he seemed to look forward to him very much.

Yu Qiuran suspects that Xiaomei can get to know him so quickly, and she likes and admires Ao Jingyi may be an important reason.

Because of the previous contacts, Ling Yue also respects the tall and mighty Zhan Shenlang and the kind and gentle Hua Chengya, even to the unfamiliar Yu Qiuran...

Seems to always want to target her.

For example, now, Yu Qiuran touched his chin and glanced at the bear child out of the corner of his eye. Taking advantage of the maid and sister not paying attention, he took out a small bag of white powder that looked like salt from his pocket. Poured into a milk glass.

She's a little weird. She considers herself to be a person who attracts all small animals, including human cubs, why does this little brat always play tricks on her?

She looked at Ling Yue politely and offered to serve everyone drinks, then put the glass of added milk in front of her, and smiled at her obediently: "Brother, this is you sweet milk."

Probably because the OOC value was too high, Yu Qiuran was accidentally recruited a few days ago - she was wearing a raincoat and treading water in the rain, and unfortunately caught a cold after a crazy game.

Everyone is at war. Zhan Shenlang handed her hot water at every turn. Hua Chengya chased after her with her coat every day.

Ao Jingyi strictly supervised her taking medicine, and also instructed all the servants not to let her fool around.

Although she recovered quickly.

But now when everyone is having afternoon tea together, the maid still follows Ao Jingyi's instructions and resolutely refuses to give her coffee and black tea, not even milk tea, and directly replaces her with two Sweet milk like a child.

Yu Qiuran took the milk from Ling Yue as if nothing had happened, and squeezed his tender, soft baby cheeks with a smile: "Thank you, Xiao Yue."

Ling Yue was looking forward to her embarrassment of drinking milk for a while, and forcibly held back Yu Qiuran's hand that smashed his face.

But Yu Qiuran did not drink it immediately, but put the cup on the table and greeted Ling Yue behind him: "Ayi, are you here?"

Ao Jingyi took Xiaomei's hand and was walking here.

"Cousin is here!" Ling Yue's eyes lit up. He immediately did not care about saying goodbye to Yu Qiuran, turned around and rushed towards Ao Jingyi.

Yu Qiuran took the opportunity to quickly exchange the milk on her and Lingyue's seats.

Because everyone uses a set of cups, they can only be distinguished by the different patterns of each teaspoon.

Yu Qiuran quickly dropped his cat's claw teaspoon and the other party's bear teaspoon, and carefully straightened the coaster to adjust the direction of the pattern on the cup.

Hua Chengya watched her a series of smooth movements. Although he didn't know what Ling Yue did, seeing Yu Qiuran like this, he could roughly guess a little.

He sighed indulgently at her, shook his head with a smile, then picked up the rag and wiped off the few drops of milk she had spilled on the table when she changed the teaspoon, helping her destroy the last bit trace.

Zhan Shenlang silently brought a glass of white water and placed it in Ling Yue's place to mourn for him in advance.

Yu Qiuran smiled brightly with her shining white teeth, and gave her two good brothers a thumbs up of thanks.

She turned her head and found that Xiaomei in a princess dress was looking at them curiously with round eyes like black grapes. She winked slyly at Xiaomei, put her index finger in front of her lips, and whispered "Shh-".

Xiaomei pursed her lips, and a small dimple with a shy smile appeared on her face.

Ling Yue, who had his back to him and didn't know anything, had bright eyes and was busy talking to Ao Jingyi.

He raised his head all the way and reported his "work" to his cousin today. After being praised by Ao Jingyi rubbing the dull hair on the top of his head, he was visibly excited.

This excitement continued until he returned to his seat and saw Yu Qiuran gracefully holding a cup and sipping milk.

He observed that a trace of doubt flashed in Yu Qiuran's eyes, and immediately held his breath nervously.

Yu Qiuran calmly looked at Ling Yue's clenched little fist and couldn't help but laugh. She lowered her head and stirred with a teaspoon, but she didn't drink it.

When the other party couldn't help it, she took another sip. Facing the other's excited eyes, she smiled and said, "Xiaoyue, today's milk is delicious."

Ling Yue was a little shocked and wondered if Yu Qiuran had a problem with his sense of taste. He obviously put a lot of salt, why is the other party still enjoying the delicious expression on his face.

Is there something wrong with the salt he stole from the kitchen?

Ling Yue saw Ao Jingyi smiling helplessly and handing Yu Qiuran a hand towel, motioned her to wipe the milk froth on the corner of her mouth, and held up her milk in a huff.

Why is my cousin always so nice to this outsider. He also wants to drink a mouthful of milk foam to let his cousin care about him!

So he wanted to bury his whole face in the cup, drank a huge gulp of milk, and then immediately spit it out.

Ling Yue picked up the glass on the seat and drank the white water inside in one breath, barely able to relieve the bitter and tingling taste in his mouth.

He stared at the milk in front of him tearfully.

This is impossible, he clearly gave it to Yu Qiuran, why is his milk salty?

Yu Qiuran looked at the little boy with an unbelievable expression, stretched out his hand to scratch the dull hair on the other's head, and asked with great concern, "Xiaoyue, what's the matter with you?"

Ling Yue, whose eyes were dazed, reacted, and a small flame of anger rose in his eyes: "It's you!"

She acted like an expert and said: "Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil. If there are bad children who want to make fun of others, they will eventually return to themselves~"

Ling Yue blushed with anger, but looking at Xiaomei's clear eyes, he couldn't cry because of his face as a man.

And he didn't want his cousin to know he was playing a prank on his friend - he thought he wouldn't like him.

In the end, he looked at Yu Qiuran's arrogant smile, snorted heavily, and sat down.

After that, Yu Qiuran battled with him many times, and spent a few days in the joy of playing with little kids.

There was no Ao Jingyi in the Dongmang Club for three people to make up time for homework.

For a moment of leisure, they discussed this topic.

In the past few days, Hua Chengya has been watching Ling Yue's repeated defeats and defeats, and she has been in a relationship with Yu Qiuyan, which is a bit incredible.

He asked, "I saw him as a polite and good boy before, why is he targeting you this time?"

Yu Qiuran actually had some headaches. To be honest, she couldn't bear to see the little kid lose so badly.

She supported her chin lazily and replied, "I don't know either. I also think that after he has learned a few lessons, he will be able to settle down."

Zhan Shenlang on the side listened to them discussing for a while, and suddenly interjected: "Because he is jealous."

Hua Chengya was taken aback when she heard the words. He seemed to understand something, looked at the bouquet on the table, and fell silent.

Yu Qiuran pondered for a while, and magically came to the truth: "Is it because Ayi is too good to me?"

She laughed and said, "What kind of vinegar is he eating? There's no comparison at all. He actually provokes me for this?"

Yu Qiuran geared up: "I originally wanted to give him some water, let him win once and let it go. It still doesn't work. You can't compare yourself too much, this kind of bad The character has to be thoroughly learned, and it’s better to take advantage of the small changes.”

Hua Chengya and Zhan Shenlang looked at her heartless smile and remained silent.

So the childish struggle between Yu Qiuran and Ling Yue entered a white-hot stage.

The simple and kind-hearted Xiaomei was worried that she seemed to be a less and less intelligent cousin, while looking forward to Yu Qiuyan's endless fresh ideas, and gradually became lively by the two of them.

Ao Jingyi watched the big and small two bear children in the family making a fuss, almost ruining the well-behaved sister, and said to the remaining two with great emotion: "It turns out that I am the most It's not Xiaomei who needs to worry, but Ah Ran."

Hua Chengya and Zhan Shenlang:…

No, we don't think you need to worry about Ah Ran, you should worry more about your cousin, he is about to be ruined by Ah Ran.

However, as a mature "adult", Yu Qiuran still has a measure of the level of mischief.

Although the hair on the top of his head is often so angry, it doesn't really hurt him.

As a child, Lingyue is not so thoughtful.

Before a dinner party, he secretly smeared oil on the edge of the platform between the stairs on the second and third floors of the hall. There is a shadow of the stairs above. be found.

Then in order to reduce Yu Qiuran's vigilance, he went downstairs with her.

His plan was a success this time.

Yu Qiuran walked to the corner of the stairs on the second floor, descended from the platform, and just stepped on the first step, she slipped.

But she reacted immediately, spun her waist gracefully, and jumped back with strength, jumping directly onto the railing bar.

Seeing that he was about to roll down the high stairs, he realized that he was not mentally prepared. He closed his eyes in panic and fear, but felt his neck suddenly tighten.

After a while in desperation, he dared to open one eye secretly, took a careful look, and found that he had been lifted up by the collar.

Yu Qiuran squatted on the railing, grabbed Ling Yue's collar, held him, who was so scared that he burst into tears, and shook it funny.

Seeing him huddled in the air like a kitten caught by the back of the neck, she clicked his tongue and put him in a safe area.

Then she got up and stepped forward lightly, walked to the part of the handrail that was sloping down, and slid down on the handrail.

Ling Yue sat on the platform, grabbed the railing under the handrail and stared blankly at her handsome figure. Finally, she landed gracefully, bowed her head dejectedly, and completely conceded defeat.

The people who were attracted by his screams just now saw this thrilling farce from a distance and rushed over quickly.

Ao Jingyi severely criticized Ling Yue and ordered him not to play pranks again in the future.

But when facing Yu Qiuran, he worried and cared: "Is your wrist okay? Is there any strain?"

Yu Qiuran moved a bit and waved his hand: "It's okay, this little brat is not heavy."

Ling Yue, who was criticized with a cold face by his cousin, watched his idol whisper softly to Yu Qiuran. Although he had already admitted defeat, he could no longer hold back the anger in his heart.

With tears in his eyes, he roared loudly: "It's all your fault! Who made you like him so much, cousin! You like him the most among all! Why! You don't like me so much! ooooooooooooh-"

Ao Jingyi looked stiff.

Hua Chengya and Zhan Shenlang couldn't help but tighten their faces.

Yu Qiuran first looked at Xiaomei's expression, seeing that she didn't seem to care, and only focused on comforting Ling Yue who was aggrieved and crying.

She looked back and was surprised to find Ao Jingyi's red ears.

Yu Qiuran raised her eyebrows and asked, "So Ah Yi likes me the most?"
