Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

It was hard to imagine a four or five-year-old child having such a cold temperament. Qiao Zhan couldn't help but

wonder if someone had irked her by eating her ice cream or something.

“Hello. You are?” he asked, preventing the pretty woman from entering.

The beauty replied, “I'm Lu Jingyuan, the owner of the inn.”

That's the name of the inn's owner, all right. However, Qiao Zhan still refused her entry. “Sorry, you can't come in.”

“Why not?”

“When we rented the building, we made it clear that no one is allowed to enter, not even you. You may be the

owner of the inn, but before our time here is up, you can't stay here. It's written clearly in our contract. Feel free to

take a look at it again to refresh your memory.”

“Is there really a clause like that on the contract? A staff member showed it to me back then, but I didn't pay

attention,” responded the woman.

“Yes,” Qiao Zhan replied firmly.

“Very well.” The woman promptly turned around and left.

Her reaction confused Qiao Zhan. “Wait. Just like that? You're leaving?”

She turned her head back. “Didn't you say you won't let me in?”

“Oh, uh, there's a girl here saying she's your daughter.”

“Yes.”

“You're not taking her with you?”

“Where is she?”

When Qiao Zhan twirled around, he noticed that the girl from before was already gone. “She was still here just a

moment ago.”

“Is she a nuisance? If not, just leave her be. She'll find her way back home herself. We'll be staying nearby.” The

woman wheeled around to leave right after finishing her sentence.

Qiao Zhan was still in a state of befuddlement. This family is odd. Her daughter's wandering around, but she's

acting as though it's not a big deal and even claimed that her daughter will find her way home.

Unable to resist his curiosity, he asked, “Aren't you concerned we might be bad people and that we might kidnap

her?”

“You won't be able to do that. Also, don't give her food. She won't want to go home if she's full and will continue to

disturb you all.” After that, she glanced at her other daughter and left.

Qiao Zhan was still stupefied when he heard Lu Yunxue's laughter. “My mommy's gone! Now I can stay here and

play!”

No one knew where she hid earlier since she didn't even make a sound.

“Don't you like your mommy?” Erbao inquired.

“I do, but I get tired of seeing her every day. Right now, I prefer hanging around here,” explained Lu Yunxue.

“Then stay and play with me. I'm bored to death here.” Erbao nodded.

“Then why don't you go out and play?”

“My mommy's not around, and this man here won't allow us to go out. He said it's unsafe.”

“Why is it unsafe?” Lu Yunxue was confused.

“I'm not sure, either. But anyway, I'm not allowed to head out no matter what,” Erbao lamented in aggrievement.

“You can always sneak outside!” Lu Yunxue gave a shocking suggestion.

Cheng Xiangyun, who was standing at the side, couldn't listen to the conversation anymore. This girl's too crafty! I

mustn't let her become a bad example to Erbao, especially when Erbao's already a difficult child to manage. If I let

them team up, they'll be a pain to control. It's a critical period right now, and no mistake is too small to let happen.

We can't let anything go wrong, or the consequences will be disastrous.

Thus, she forcibly intervened, “You can't set a bad example for our girl, Lu Yunxue. How can you tell her to sneak

outside? What if she runs into a bad guy?”

“It's not good to eavesdrop on someone else's conversation, old woman!” Lu Yunxue exclaimed.

Cheng Xiangyun was infuriated. What did she just call me? I'm not old! I'm young and unmarried!

Tickled pink, Qiao Zhan couldn't help but snicker when he heard that.

Furiously, Cheng Xiangyun retorted, “Don't go around calling people that, young lady! I'm still single! You should be

calling me—”

“You are pretty young, but now that you've eavesdropped on our conversation, you're not likable anymore. So, I

can only call you that!” Lifting her chin, Lu Yunxue appeared extremely arrogant.

Judging by the way she spoke, it seemed like she knew calling Cheng Xiangyun an old woman would damage the

woman's ego. She did it on purpose to punish Cheng Xiangyun for eavesdropping on her conversation with Erbao.

This little witch is ridiculous! I can't believe she verbally attacked me just because we're not on the same page! I

can't let her do as she pleases. Still angry, Cheng Xiangyun spat, “Erbao's sick. Her body is frail, yet you're

instigating her to sneak out. Do you think that's appropriate?”

Concerned, Lu Yunxue instantly asked, “You're sick? Are you okay?”

“I was poisoned. The poison is gone now, but I haven't recovered yet.” Erbao spilled the truth straightforwardly, as

expected of a child's sincere nature.

There wasn't anything wrong with that. A child should act as naive and genuine as one. It would be pathetic if they

were as scheming and untrusting as adults.

“You poor thing! Then what will happen to you?” Lu Yunxue panicked.

“Mommy said it takes time for me to get back in shape. Don't worry, I won't die. I'll get better slowly. In fact, I'm

doing much better than before already,” Erbao consoled.

“Oh, thank goodness. You need to recover because we're going to be best friends in the future. I don't want my

best friend to get sick. Let's hug.” Lu Yunxue spread her arms open.

The girls then embraced each other, bringing tears to Cheng Xiangyun's eyes. Such a beautiful and pure friendship.

What a precious hug. In the far future, if they can still recall their first meeting, they'll realize that is the most

precious moment in their relationship.

“Where's your daddy, Yunxue?” After witnessing how Lu Yunxue hugged Erbao, Cheng Xiangyun found the girl

considerate and adorable. Thus, she wanted to improve her relationship with the latter, too.

No answer came from Lu Yunxue.

Assuming the girl was still mad at her for what happened earlier, she comforted, “I was wrong. I shouldn't have

treated you like that, but Erbao really can't go out right now. You may be familiar with the area so you can come

and go with no issue, but Erbao isn't. If she leaves this place, she'll be in danger. Do you understand?”

“Why is she called Erbao? Isn't her name Nan Sihan?” Lu Yunxue wondered.

Annoyance marred Erbao's face. “My mommy calls me that. I don't like being called that, but I don't have a choice.

I think it's super old-fashioned, but everyone has gotten used to calling me that.”

“I think it sounds nice. I'll call you Erbao in the future, too, then.”

“Don't! It's too lame!” Erbao rejected outright.

However, Lu Yunxue giggled and replied, “I think it sounds nice.”

Cheng Xiangyun realized Lu Yunxue seemed to be avoiding the topic of her father. This kid's smart. If she doesn't

want to talk about it, it means she has her own reasons not to. I should just drop that question. “Yunxue, the girl

next to your mom earlier appears very similar to you. Are you two twins?”

“Yeah. Her name's Lu Yunbing. She came out of my mommy's tummy first, so she got to be the older sister.” Lu

Yunxue pouted with dissatisfaction.

Cheng Xiangyun was fascinated. Wow, I came across yet another pair of twins! Not to mention they look so similar

to each other!

“Why didn't she stay here to play?” she asked.

“She's not easy to get along with. Unlike me, who's cute and active, she's very stiff,” Lu Yunxue explained seriously.

Cheng Xiangyun couldn't help chuckling. She really is a little devil. It's incredible how similar she is to Erbao in so

many aspects.
