"Huh?" Song Yaoyao lifted her head aggrievedly and looked into the man's eyes which were as calm as a lake. She pouted her lips. "Of course, not! I don't like Huo Ningxi at all! I like Gege the most~ He's not as handsome as you, nor is he as tall and refined. I would be blind to be interested in him!"

"Song! Yao! Yao!"

Hearing her belittle him until he was worth nothing, Huo Ningxi was furious. "You don't like me? I'm the one that doesn't like you!"

"I understand," Huo Yunque nodded his head, his voice was low and deep.

Song Yaoyao tugged on the corner of his shirt and clearly saw a smile appear in the man's phoenix eyes like gradual ripples on the water's surface.

"Since you don't like him, then I will take charge of this matter. The verbal agreement that your father unilaterally made cannot be taken seriously,"—Huo Yunque turned to Huo Ningxi with a calm expression—"From now on, you have nothing to do with her. Are you willing to accept that?"

Huo Ningxi was more than happy to accept it, so he immediately nodded his head. "Of course!"

Even looking at Song Yaoyao for a little longer was annoying! Especially since this brat was violent like a possessed person.

She was even acting like a victim! How shameless!

"Okay, what about you?" Huo Yunque lowered his gaze.

"I never had anything to do with him!" Song Yaoyao scrunched up her nose. "His father made the agreement with my parents; what does that have to do with me? I am a human, not a doll. I will definitely marry the person I like in the future. Their decision has always been a trifling matter~"

She pouted her lips unhappily. No matter the reason, they had applied pressure with their authority and unilaterally set this agreement.

Did they ever host an engagement party?

It was never official! Initially, it was fine because the original owner of her body liked Huo Ningxi, but the current her had absolutely no interest in the childish boy~

"Okay," Huo Yunque's smile increased as he nodded his head. "Huo Ningxi, visit the Songs tomorrow, bring an apology gift, and clarify your relationship to the public."

"Why should I?" Huo Ningxi's eyes opened wide with reluctance.

He never liked Song Yaoyao and never agreed to the wedding. Why should he apologize?

"Huo Ningxi, what you need to understand is"—Huo Yunque's gaze was cold and piercing—"this is not a negotiation. It is an order. You can choose to walk there yourself or be carried there. Do you understand?"

Huo Ningxi stood in place; the atmosphere was suppressing. The man's presence was so suffocating that Huo Ningxi could barely breathe.

He looked at the girl that was standing next to his Small Uncle. His gaze contained a sense of reluctance, humiliation, and helplessness.

He had never felt the disparity between him and his Small Uncle as clearly as he did at that moment.

They were so far apart that it felt like they were separated by an entire galaxy! Huo Yunque was at a height that he could never reach.

"Yes..." Huo Ningxi mumbled. "I understand."

After speaking, he didn't want to stay around any longer, so he quickly found an excuse and returned to his room.

As soon as he left, Song Yaoyao immediately smiled.

The expression on her fair and delicate face was lively, and there was an inconcealable slyness in her eyes.

"Were you worried about me, Gege? Love you~~"

She lifted her arms and made a heart on top of her head.

Huo Yunque glanced at her domineeringly. "Song Yaoyao, did Huo Ningxi really bully you?"

"Ahem..."

Song Yaoyao didn't expect Huo Yunque to go after her.

She stuck out her tongue and her eyes wavered. The helpers noticed her gaze and lowered their heads, pressing their noses against their chests.
