Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When Xu Huihui spotted Professor Sus eldest daughter from a distance that night, she was even more astonished.

As someone who valued appearance, Xu Huihuis admiration for her immediately swayed.

Auntie, Im back! Xu Huihui called out before even entering, Auntie, have you had dinner? Will you give me the autograph book I asked for? Im heading back to the Capital the day after tomorrow.

Her most coveted item in the Capital was a signed copy of The Sc.u.mbags Handbook. Previously, she hadnt realized it was published by her aunts publis.h.i.+ng house, but now that she knew, she sought to exploit that connection.

Why are you shouting? Zhou Yan emerged from the Little sisters room, mindful not to wake the two girls who had just dozed off after a busy day of meeting new people. They had been too tired to walk back to Su Wens place.

Auntie, Im back. I havent eaten yet. Is there any food left at home? Xu Huihui smiled ingratiatingly, Im starving.

Didnt Xiaoxiao take you all out for dinner?

Dont mention it. Big Brother was so furious he chased everyone away. Xu

Huihui was very familiar with Zhou Yan. Although Zhou Yan wasnt in the Capital year-round, Xu Huihui had admired this aunt since she was young. Her greatest childhood dream was to be her aunts daughter. Now, just bringing it up would provoke teasing.

If it were anyone else, it might have been too much, but Xu Xiaoxiao was entirely unsurprised. She found it perfectly natural.

Zhou Yan was on the verge of laughter.

Zishan and Jianan havent eaten either, right? Ill make some chicken noodle soup for you. Thank you, Auntie.

Thank you, Auntie Zhou.

Song Zishan and Lu Jianan thanked her quickly.

Why so polite? Xiaoxiao went too far. Im just glad youre not holding it against him. Criticizing her son first was always the right approach.

Xu Huihui was defensive.

She didnt want her cousin criticized. Though young, she wasnt naive. Those people at the restaurant had ill intentions, so her cousin had every right to be angry.

They deserved the scolding.

Had it not been for Song Zishan and Lu Jianan being her childhood friends, she might have scolded them too. It was all their fault. Why suddenly mention Professor Su?

Xu Huihui began to wonder why Song Zishan had decided to attend the banquet. She didnt expect it was for Professor Sus daughter.

Auntie, dont say that. Cousin didnt do anything wrong.

Zhou Yan chuckled, gesturing for Song Zishan and Lu Jianan to sit, nodding fondly at Xu Huihui. Youre the only one who knows how to handle Xiaoxiao. Who says that? My sisters all think that Cousin is amazing.

Xu Huihui wasnt exaggerating. While her friends daughters might fear Xu

Xiaoxiao, within the Xu family, he was seen as an exemplary brother. Xu Huihui was one of his most ardent fans, despite his disdain for her childishness and reluctance to play with her.

Lu Jianan subtly a.s.sessed Xu Huihui and Zhou Yan, then whispered in Song Zishans ear, Weve just offended Xu Huihui.

Xu Huihui wasnt Zhou Nini. She was smart!

Song Zishan lowered her gaze slightly, a hint of mockery flickering in her eyes. By acknowledging Su Xuewens daughter as their adopted daughter, the Xu family has embarra.s.sed Songs family. Who exactly has offended whom? she said.

Lu Jianans expression became complicated.

In truth, Zishan was right!
