C471 Partnership Bullying

When Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingshen returned home, Xiaohu was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons. Hearing the commotion, he got up from the sofa and walked to the door. He looked at Huo Mingshen and asked, "Mr Mingshen, why are you back so soon?"

He had purposely given Mr Mingshen a chance just now, but why didn't Mr Mingshen make good use of it and come back so soon?

"Xiaohu, can you only see you, Mr Mingshen, right now? Ms Soong, I'm a living person, can't you see me standing here? Ms Soong's heart really does not feel good … " Soong Shiyan saw that Xiaohu didn't notice her at all, so she said helplessly — — Was this kid, Xiaohu, given a bewitching soup by Huo Mingshen?

Hearing that, Xiaohu raised his head, looked at Soong Shiyan with a smile, and said in a childish voice, "Ms Soong, come, let me help you with the dishes..." Saying that, Xiaohu reached out his hand, wanting to help Soong Shiyan carry the shopping bag in her hand.

Since the shopping bag was full of food, Soong Shiyan naturally wouldn't let Xiaohu, a kid with small arms and legs, carry it. Soong Shiyan smiled as she shook her head at Xiaohu. Then, she stuffed the shopping bags into Huo Mingshen's hands and said, "Xiaohu, this shopping bag is something a man should do — but Xiaohu is still a child right now. So, this shopping bag should be carried by the person who should be carrying it, right?"

Xiaohu nodded and glanced at Huo Mingshen. Then, he was pulled into the house by Soong Shiyan.

Huo Mingshen looked at Soong Shiyan's back and shook his head helplessly. She was still angry about what happened in the supermarket!

Huo Mingshen placed the dishes he bought in the kitchen. When he was about to leave, he saw Soong Shiyan walk in.

"You can leave first. I'll call you guys when the food is ready." Although Soong Shiyan was still angry in her heart, but thinking that Huo Mingshen was a patient, she still showed a lot of friendliness towards him.

With that, Soong Shiyan swiftly took the apron and tied it to her own body.

"Let me help you." Huo Mingshen was naturally unwilling to let go of the opportunity to be alone with Soong Shiyan.

"No need, you go out and play with Xiaohu. Xiaohu came to see you today on purpose, do you have the nerve to leave him by himself?" Soong Shiyan said to Huo Mingshen while arranging the dishes. The words she said gave off a sense of irresistible firmness.

Huo Mingshen nodded awkwardly and said, "Alright, I'll go out first-- Xiaohu and I are just outside. If there's anything you need my help with, just call me."

Soong Shiyan originally didn't know how to cook. That's right, before something happened with her Soong Family, she was Soong Qigang's precious daughter, a young miss whose fingers were not even touched by the Yang Spring Water. Naturally, she wouldn't do such a thing. However, after something happened with her Soong Family, she slowly learned these things. During that period of time where she was in the Gaoshun Island, although her culinary arts had started from zero, she had actually greatly improved.

Huo Mingshen was sitting in the living room with Xiaohu watching TV, but his eyes kept drifting towards the kitchen.

"Mr Mingshen, what are you looking at?" Xiaohu looked at Huo Mingshen and asked with a confused expression.

"Nothing." Hearing this, Huo Mingshen came back to his senses. He looked at Xiaohu and replied without interest.

Xiaohu covered his mouth and laughed before saying, "Mr Mingshen, let's go to the kitchen and help Ms Soong!"

Huo Mingshen, of course, did what he was looking for. Hearing what was said, he hurriedly brought Xiaohu to the kitchen.

As soon as he arrived at the kitchen, he saw Soong Shiyan busying herself in the kitchen. He felt moved.

"Mr Mingshen — —" Xiaohu saw that Huo Mingshen was lost in thought so he shouted in a low voice.

"Ah, what's wrong?" Huo Mingshen asked as if he had just woken up from a dream. He looked at Xiaohu with a puzzled expression.

"Kneel down, I need to talk to you about something." Xiaohu looked at Huo Mingshen mysteriously and said to him with a smile.

Hearing that, Huo Mingshen did not ask any further questions and directly squatted down. Xiaohu whispered in his ear for a while. He could not help but look at Xiaohu with a praising expression. "Xiaohu, you really are a coward. Where did you learn all this?"

"Mr Mingshen, I learned this from a TV show!" Xiaohu looked at Huo Mingshen and replied with a smile.

Huo Mingshen couldn't help but feel lucky. Luckily, Xiaohu was on his side. If Xiaohu was standing on Huo Mingyang's side, then he had no chance of winning at all.

"When everything between you and my brother is settled, I'll definitely give you a big red packet!" Huo Mingshen said with a smile as he rubbed Xiaohu's head.

Then, Huo Mingshen took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to Xiaohu. Then, he walked into the kitchen.

"What are you doing here?" "Where's Xiaohu?" When Soong Shiyan was busy, she saw Huo Mingshen walk into the kitchen. She stopped what she was doing, looked at Huo Mingshen and asked helplessly.

"Ms Soong, it's too hard for you to cook alone. I can play by myself, so I don't need Mr Mingshen to accompany me. Just let Mr Mingshen do something for you!" Xiaohu stuck his head out of the door and said to Soong Shiyan with a smile.

Since Wu Tie had already said so, Soong Shiyan naturally wouldn't refuse again. She looked at Huo Mingshen, pointed at the side dishes and said, "Since you want to come over and help, then pick the dishes and wash them clean." With that, Soong Shiyan went to do some other things.1

Huo Mingshen nodded, picked up the side dish and stood beside Soong Shiyan. While picking the dish, he nodded at Xiaohu at the door.

The sunlight lazily shone in through the window, softening their shadows even further. Looking at their backs, he really did seem like a loving couple. Xiaohu stood at the door with Huo Mingshen's phone in his hand. He was patting the two's back.

… ….

Soong Shiyan paced back and forth in the kitchen a few times before she heaved a sigh of relief when the dishes were on the table. It seemed like she hadn't cooked for a long time. After cooking three dishes and a soup today, she really did tire him out.

Huo Mingshen took a few pictures of Soong Shiyan's hard work with his phone. Looking at Huo Mingshen's expression, Soong Shiyan was a little speechless — — Why was such a nice man like him slapping the table even when he was eating?

Sensing Soong Shiyan's slightly contemptuous gaze, Huo Mingshen smiled awkwardly and kept his phone.

"Xiaohu, it's time to eat — —" After Soong Shiyan put the dishes on the table, she shouted at Xiaohu, who was watching TV on the side.

Huo Mingshen was aware of it. He walked into the kitchen, took out the chopsticks and put them away one by one.

Before Soong Shiyan could shout twice, Xiaohu walked over. Seeing the food on the table, he said with surprise, "Ms Soong, the food you made looks really delicious!"

This was the first time that Soong Shiyan had shown her culinary skills in front of Xiaohu. Back then, she had escaped with Xiaohu, homeless and unable to eat. How could she have had the chance to cook? Now, even though she was reborn, she had never eaten a single meal — that was to say, whether she was Soong Shiyan or Jing Sung, the person who had eaten her cooking turned out to be Huo Mingshen.

Soong Shiyan shook her head, trying to put that absurd idea out of her mind.

"Mr Mingshen, look, Ms Soong treats you so well — this is the first time I've seen Ms Soong cook!" Xiaohu looked at Huo Mingshen and said with an envious expression. Then, he turned around and looked at Soong Shiyan, smiled and asked, "Ms Soong, why are you so good to Mr Mingshen? "Could it be …"

"Xiaohu, what are you thinking about at such a young age?" Hearing this, Soong Shiyan's voice rose up like a cat whose tail has been stepped on. Her face had a tinge of red as she said this.

"Ms Soong, I haven't said anything. What are you denying?" Xiaohu pretended not to understand as he tilted his head to look at Soong Shiyan. However, Soong Shiyan was momentarily at a loss for words.

Huo Mingshen sat at the side and the smile in the corner of his eyes deepened.

Song Shishi glanced at Huo Mingshen and felt that she lost all her face. With a fierce face, she looked at Xiaohu and said with a serious expression, "Don't talk during dinner, otherwise you will become a toothpick in the future, do you understand?"

Even though Xiaohu was still young, he already had a difference in beauty. As the saying goes, love beauty, everyone has it. Hearing this, he nervously covered his mouth with his hand, afraid that he would become like what Soong Shiyan had said.

Seeing this, Huo Mingshen smiled and rubbed Xiaohu's head, saying to him, "Xiaohu, don't listen to Ms Soong's nonsense — these are all superstitious words. Xiaohu, you've already started studying, so you must believe in science and not in these weird and disorderly ideas, do you understand?"

Hearing this, Xiaohu wanted to say something, but in the end, he nodded his head and said to Huo Mingshen: "Mr Mingshen, I understand!"

Soong Shiyan, who was sitting at the side, laughed disapprovingly when she heard Huo Mingshen's words. In the beginning, she didn't believe in the theory of gods and monsters. However, after experiencing all this, she couldn't help but start to suspect that science and superstition were really opposites.

"If you don't want to eat, don't want to sleep — since we're at the dining table, then let's eat in peace!" Soong Shiyan lightly coughed and said.

This time, Soong Shiyan really felt that Xiaohu and Huo Mingshen were in the same group and that they were going to bully her together. Huo Mingshen was not easy to deal with. Now with Xiaohu, she would probably be defeated little by little. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh internally — — I wonder what medicine Huo Mingshen gave Xiaohu, but Xiaohu actually turned his elbow outward!

Huo Mingshen saw that Soong Shiyan's face was slightly red, so he stopped immediately. He signaled Xiaohu to quiet down so as to not make Soong Shiyan unhappy.
