Song Jingwan smiled apologetically. "Sorry for the embarrassing scene."

"Wait!" a sweet yet cold voice sounded.

Song Yaoyao, who had been watching from the sidelines, approached and pointed at the water stains beside the pool.

"You're plan would have been perfect if you cleaned these water stains..."

Song Yaoyao glanced sideways and smiled at Song Jingwan. "I believe in Ye. He would never lie."

Yi Ting did not chase after his son. There were security guards outside, so he was sure that they would never allow Ye to run too far. He crossed his arms and chuckled when he heard what the girl said. "I believe my son too. Since Mrs. Song doesn't believe him, then let's investigate further."

"Y-you—" Zhou Manli was furious. "This is my home!"

Yi Ting smiled. "Ye is my son."

He was firm on where he stood. It didn't look like he was giving up until he achieved his motive. His message was clear: sure, this was the Song Family Home, but his son was also aggrieved.

He was investigating this matter to the end!

The atmosphere grew tense. How did the birthday party turn out like this?

Everyone looked at each other.

"Let me go! Punk, let me go!"

At that moment, a youngster approached with a smile, holding Ye by his clothes.

Behind him followed a dozen or so black-suited men.

Ye's limbs and head hung low as he was held by his suit like a flopping chicken.

When he saw who had arrived, Song Rui's expression immediately changed.

"Huo Qi!"

Song Yaoyao's eyes lit up and she quickly ran over to him.

The girl's footsteps were light and fast like she was stepping on clouds, as her face filled with anticipation. Those that didn't know would have thought that Huo Qi was her boyfriend.

But...that was not the case...

Before Song Yaoyao managed to say anything, Huo Qi already knew what she was going to ask. "Miss Song, the Master told me to escort you home."

The crowd began to chatter.

Although the master of the house barely showed himself in public, Huo Qi often attended events in his stead, so these influential people all knew who he was.

They also knew who his master was.

He was here to take the Second Miss of the Song Family home? Did he mean what they thought he meant?

Song Yaoyao's eyes curved. "Okay!"

As though her heart had found a place to belong, her grievances immediately felt minuscule.

"Huo Qi, let Ye down."

Lin Shuang tried to catch her breath as she caught up to them. It seemed, Ye had run into Huo Qi after not getting very far. Since Huo Qi recognized the rascal, he decided to bring him back.

"Punk! Let me go!"

"Ye, don't be rude!" Lin Shuang warned.

Huo Qi chuckled. "Sister-in-law, you heard him. The little punk was yelling at me!"

He held the little boy up and dangled him in mid-air, scaring him until he grew fiercer. "How can you bully a child? Wait until I grow up! I'm going to challenge you, one-on-one!"

"Ha!"

Huo Qi was amused. "Haven't you heard that a child should be bullied early?" If he didn't bully him now, he would not have the chance in the future.

Ye's face turned red as he yelled unhappily, "Daddy!"

Yi Ting crossed his arms and held back a smile as he glanced at him. "You finally know to call me? Let me tell you, it's useless."

He spoke coldly. It was as though the child wasn't his.

Lin Shuang was speechless.

In a state of despair, Ye's arms and legs drooped, as well as his neck. He decided to play dead.

Song Yaoyao was the only one who couldn't stand it any longer. "Let him down."

"Fine. Little punk, I'll let you off this time. Next time you run into me, I'll make you pay. Understand?"

Huo Qi let Ye down and he quickly ran towards Song Yaoyao. He wrapped his arms around her leg and said, "Big Sis, you're the only one that treats me well!"
