Gong Yi’s eyes darkened. At this time, she was probably the only one who would feel itchy.
To prevent himself from burning up, Gong Yi changed the topic. “Your mother… hit you too?”
Bai Beibei was stunned for a moment, and sadness welled up in her eyes. “Yes, she did. But that was because my mother was sick. I know she loves me!”
She said with certainty.
Gong Yi felt his heart being pricked by a needle, and it hurt a little.
Did her mother love her?
He didn’t know.
But what he knew was that this silly girl loved her mother deeply, even if her mother was a mental patient who had never given her a day of maternal love.
This topic was too painful, so the two of them didn’t speak.
Bai Beibei hugged her knees and looked at the night sky outside the window. Then, she said timidly, “Brother-in-law, can I… stay at your place for one night?”
She was homeless.
Gong Yi’s expression was calm. He snorted, “The Bai family chased you out?”
Bai Beibei’s long eyelashes fluttered. “Yes. Brother-in-law, just for one night. I’ll leave tomorrow morning. I’ll go out and look for a house…”
Gong Yi interrupted her. “You can stay here from now on.”
“What?” Bai Beibei looked back at him.
Their faces were almost touching. Gong Yi could smell the fragrance of her body. The young girl’s fragrance was clean and pleasant, it was very nice on smell.
“Do you know how to do housework?”
“MHM, I do. I know how to wash clothes, cook, and clean the room.”
“Alright, I need a nanny here. You can stay. I’ll give you food and accommodation. I’ll give you… 5,000 a month.”
“Really? Can I?” Bai Beibei’s eyes were as bright as the stars. She looked at Gong Yi with anticipation and gratitude.
Gong Yi nodded under her gaze.
“That’s great, brother-in-law. Thank you. I’ll work hard. I won’t let you down.” Bai Beibei smiled.
Her smile was really beautiful, like a cute little angel. The multicoloured light was breathtaking. Gong Yi rolled his Adam’s apple, and the large palm that was resting on her skin slowly moved to her s-shaped waist. He grabbed it, stared at her, and said, “How are you going to thank me?”
How?
Bai Beibei thought for a moment. She had nothing, so she didn’t have anything to give him. “Brother-in-law, how do you want me to thank you?”
Gong Yi frowned and retracted his hand. He despised himself. What was he doing?
She was an innocent little girl and did not understand what he meant. Could it be that he wanted her to kiss him or relive what happened that night in the bathroom?
She treated him as her benefactor and he was a bad guy!
Gong Yi got up and pretended to be serious. “I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll tell you when I’ve thought about it. You have to work hard and don’t slack off.”
“Yes, yes, brother-in-law, don’t worry!”
Gong Yi turned around and walked out.
The next morning.
Gong Yi woke up late because he couldn’t sleep last night, he was tossing and turning.
Whenever he thought of how he couldn’t control himself when he was facing a green fruit, he would be annoyed. He thought of Ye Xiaotao again. He loved this girl whom he had loved deeply for more than twenty years. But he felt his body was towards another person while he was in love with someone else. He felt that he was an sc*mbag.
He opened the door and went down the stairs. At this moment, a petite figure ran out from the kitchen. “Brother-in-law, you’re awake. Breakfast is ready. You can eat now.”
Gong Yi looked at the dining table. There was a bowl of millet congee, two small steamed buns, and two freshly fried seasonal vegetables on the table. It was very simple, but it was very appetizing.
He suddenly remembered that he had asked her to be his housekeeper last night. He only wanted to take her in and didn’t expect her to work, but it seemed that she had done quite well.
He sat on the dining chair. “Did you make this steamed bun?”
Bai Beibei had a bright smile on her face, “Yes, I saw that there was some flour in the fridge, so I took it out to make steamed buns. Because it’s my first day here, I don’t know what you like to eat, brother-in-law, and there aren’t many dishes in the fridge, so I made it simpler. It’ll get better and better in the future.”
The children of the poor did their household early. She knew how to do everything. Her grandmother was best at making noodles, and she wasn’t inferior either.
Her cooking skills were quite good.
Gong Yi nodded. He picked up his chopsticks and then paused. “Why is there only one bowl? Aren’t you going to eat ?”
“I’m not going to eat it.” Bai Beibei quickly shook her head.
In the Bai family, she wasn’t qualified to sit at the dining table. Now that she was a nanny, she wasn’t qualified to sit with the master and eat together.
“Sit opposite and eat together.”
“Brother-in-law, there’s no need. I’ll eat later.”
“Then you can leave this place because I don’t need a disobedient employee…”
Before she could finish, Bai Beibei had run into the kitchen. Soon, she took a small bowl and sat across from him.
Gong Yi smiled. This little girl was easy to scare with.
He reached out his chopsticks and placed a small bun in her small bowl.
Two buns, one for each.
Bai Beibei’s long eyelashes trembled. Then, she raised her eyes secretly to look at the man across from her. Today, he was wearing a green V-neck thin sweater. His face was exquisite and handsome. Because he received a high-class education, therefore, when he ate, he exuded a sense of nobility and elegance. He was the number one Young Master from a prestigious family.
Bai Beibei’s eyes were wet. She was touched because, in the past, she would sit opposite her grandmother like this, and her grandmother would serve her delicious food.
He was only her brother-in-law, but he had helped her so many times, and he was so nice to her.
“Didn’t you change your clothes?” The man across from her asked.
Bai Beibei was stunned. Then, she looked down at the white dress she was wearing. The dress was wrinkled. Compared to him, she was like an ugly duckling.
Because of her embarrassment, Bai Beibei’s little face turned red. “No… I didn’t bring any clothes…”
When the Bai family chased her out, they only gave her a school bag.
“After breakfast, I’ll take you to buy clothes,” Gong Yi said.
Bai Beibei was stunned. Then, she quickly waved her hand and refused. “No need, I…”
Gong Yi lifted his eyelids and looked at her. “What are you thinking about? I’ll deduct it from your salary.”
Bai Beibei:”… Oh, thank you, brother-in-law.”
The Lamborghini stopped outside the shopping mall. Gong Yi brought Bai Beibei into a clothing store.
The salesperson greeted them warmly. “Sir, Miss, what kind of clothes do you want to buy?”
Gong Yi looked at the girl behind him. “Give her a few sets of new clothes.”
“Okay.” The salesperson looked at Bai Beibei kindly. “This miss has a petite figure and has an extraordinary temperament. She can hold herself in any style of dress. However, I suggest that this miss wear a red dress.”
As she spoke, the salesperson took out a red lace dress.
Gong Yi looked at Bai Beibei. “Go try it on in the fitting room.”
Bai Beibei didn’t have the right to choose. She nodded obediently. “Alright.”
