Wu Jiaheng refused, but he couldn’t dissuade her. In the end, he accepted it.

Wu Jiaheng bought some boys’ toys, but the sales assistant was not surprised.

In the end, Wu Jiaheng asked, “I want to buy a bracelet for a friend. Can you help me try it on?”

Xiao Xi nodded.

“I’m not very good at picking. Tell me if you see something good.” Wu Jiaheng stole a look at Xiao Xi.

“Sure.” Xiao Xi chose seriously. “I think this is good.”

“Then please take this out so that she can try it on,” Wu Jiaheng said to the sales assistant.

It fit just right on Xiao Xi. Wu Jiaheng bought it without hesitation.

After getting into the car, Wu Jiaheng handed her the gift box.

Xiao Xi: “?”

“The bracelet is for you. Thank you for helping me so much recently,” Wu Jiaheng said sincerely.

“This is too expensive. There’s no need to give me such an expensive gift.” Xiao Xi declined.

Wu Jiaheng said, “You’re worth it.”

Xiao Xi’s hand paused. The brocade box was already in her hand.

“My life is simple. I don’t have many other friends. Don’t mind me.”

Xiao Xi pursed her lips and held the brocade box.

After Wu Jiaheng and Xiao Xi fetched Lil’ Hua, they went to Nirvana Entertainment.

After a period of adjustment, Lil’ Hua regained some of her lively personality. Her big eyes were very round, and she looked very obedient.

After she entered Nirvana Entertainment, many people came to see her.

The receptionists who had misunderstood Wu Jiaheng previously also sent a pile of lollipops over. “Lil’ Hua, these are for you.”

“Also, tell your father not to mind what we said before.”

Wu Jiaheng smiled tolerantly. It felt good to walk freely without being judged anymore.

All of this was thanks to Su Bei.

He carried the toys and Lil’ Hua as he knocked on Su Bei’s office door.

“President Su.” After he entered, he brought the gift over. “This is for the child from that day.”

“Thank you.” Su Bei accepted it without hesitation. When she saw Lil’ Hua, she couldn’t help but smile. “Lil’ Hua, you’ve grown taller.”

Lil’ Hua smiled at her, and Su Bei’s heart softened. “Lil’ Hua, can I give you a hug?”

Lil’ Hua obediently walked toward her.

Su Bei picked her up. Having a daughter would be so good. Daughters were so gentle and delicate.

“Come to the office often in the future, okay?” Su Bei’s voice softened when facing her.

“Okay.” Lil’ Hua smiled again.

After a while, Xiao Xi came over. Lil’ Hua followed Xiao Xi out to play.

Only then did Su Bei say, “Lil Hua’s treatment must have been quite effective recently. She doesn’t seem to be afraid of strangers and is smiling more now.”

“Yes, she no longer has nightmares at night.” Wu Jiaheng was relieved.

“That’s good. After filming this drama, shoot two more advertisements to maintain your popularity. Then you can rest for half a year and accompany her more.”

Wu Jiaheng nodded.

In the Lu family’s mansion…

Madam Fu naturally came to talk about Li Hua and Wu Jiaheng.

“I didn’t expect Li Hua to be a complete liar. Yujia is too sympathetic to the weak, which is why she was deceived by someone like her. The human heart is really unpredictable!” Madam Fu said bitterly.

Old Madam Lu also said, “That’s right. It’s difficult to know one’s heart.”

“But I don’t think that Wu Jiaheng is truly a good person,” Madam Fu said.

Madam Fu glanced at Old Madam Lu and said, “There are always many twists and turns in the entertainment industry. Now, Yujia doesn’t know what to do even if she wants to do good. It’s actually difficult to completely conclude what happened between Wu Jiaheng and Li Hua now. Li Hua is a liar, but Wu Jiaheng is probably no better.”

At a time like this, she still had to help speak up for her daughter.

Old Master Lu sat at the side drinking tea. He did not like to hear such gossip. When he heard her mention Wu Jiaheng, he said, “No matter who’s the liar, the little girl is innocent.”

“I’m afraid that the little girl will suffer with Wu Jiaheng, so Yujia will continue to investigate Wu Jiaheng.”

Old Master Lu did not comment. The butler came to refill the tea and said softly, “Old Master, Wu Jiaheng is the person who sent Young Master Gun Gun back that day.”

Old Master Lu perked up. “Then how could he be a bad person? I think Wu Jiaheng is very good!”

The butler said it so softly that Madam Fu didn’t hear him. Even if she did, she wouldn’t know the whole story.

Hearing Old Master Lu’s sudden words, she was at a loss for words.

“Stop talking bad about Wu Jiaheng. I don’t like it,” Old Master Lu said. “I’ll go outside and sit down.”

Madam Fu looked confused. What was going on?

She didn’t know what was wrong with Old Master Lu, but she didn’t dare say anything else. She could only hurriedly bid farewell and leave.

…

Su Bei carried the toys given by Wu Jiaheng and bought another set. When she returned home that night, she gave them to Da Bao and Gun Gun.

Da Bao was no longer interested in such toys. He just thanked her politely and put them down.

Su Bei had long guessed his attitude. After all, it was like giving a university student a rattle drum. The other party would not like it.

However, Gun Gun was very happy with the gifts. “So, these are from that uncle the other day?”

“Yes. Do you like them?”

“I do!” Gun Gun immediately took them out to play.

Da Bao glanced at Su Bei and walked up to her. He stroked her hair and said, “I don’t like to play with such toys. You’re busy, so there’s no need for you to specially make a trip to buy them for me.”

“How do you know I bought your share?” After saying that, Su Bei knew she had misspoken.

Sure enough, Da Bao’s eyes were filled with understanding.

“That uncle has only seen Gun Gun. He doesn’t know your true identity, let alone my existence. He definitely wouldn’t think of buying two sets of gifts. You bought another set of gifts back because you didn’t want to neglect me. You want to show me the same love as Gun Gun.” Da Bao seemed to have seen through Su Bei’s thoughts.

“Oh, you saw through me.” Su Bei raised her hands in surrender.

Da Bao smiled. “I know you love me as much as Gun Gun. It has never changed. I won’t question your sincerity just because of toys.”

“My Da Bao!” Su Bei hugged him. He was so cute at such a young age. What would happen when he grew up?

“Don’t go to the mall for such things next time. I’d rather you come home early and swipe your phone or daydream and rest more.”

Su Bei ruffled his hair. “Okay, I understand.”

When Lu Heting returned, he saw the mother and son whispering to each other. He strode over and asked, “What are you talking about?”
