Ch72 - Not Bitter

“We came too early.” Zhu Xia smiled at Yan Ting. “Bo… Xiao…”

It wasn’t appropriate to call him boss or Xiao Yan. It was too difficult for her.

“Sister Xia, just call me Xiao Yan.” Yan Ting knew they were worried about Li Zhao, which was why they had come so early. “You don’t have to worry. All the hot topics on the Internet have been removed and Zhao Zhao hasn’t been affected much.” 

“Yan Ting, thank you for being with Zhao Zhao.” Zhu Xia smiled bitterly. “Zhao Zhao is too sensible. He won’t say it even if he is wronged. Fortunately, you are here so I can rest assured.”

“These are all things I should do.” Yan Ting didn’t like people saying thank you because it made him feel that Zhao Zhao was more familiar and intimate with these people.

After a while, Zhu Xia heard footsteps from upstairs and looked up. She saw Li Zhao wearing pyjamas, his hair messy and he didn’t seem to be fully awake yet. Looking at the housekeeper’s ordinary appearance, Zhu Xia was almost certain that Li Zhao lived with Yan Ting when he wasn’t filming.

“Sister Xia, Brother Ming, Brother Xiaojun, Sister Linlin, you’re early.” Li Zhao went to Yan Ting’s side and naturally leaned his head against Yan Ting while yawning. “I slept too late yesterday and didn’t even go for a run today.” 

The four people saw that Li Zhao’s expression was normal and were relieved.

“Why do you want to run? Aren’t we going to have a barbecue?” Zhu Xia reached out to pat him on the head. Just before she patted him, Yan Ting’s hand was faster than her and stopped on Li Zhao’s head.

“I will go upstairs to change my clothes.” Li Zhao got up. “Ting Ting, wait five minutes for me to come down and I’ll have breakfast with you.”

Zhu Xia quietly retracted her hand, pretending that nothing happened. 

The baby had a ‘daughter-in-law’ so as the big sister, she should be at ease. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was a big problem. She should study hard.

After breakfast, the barbecue was set up in the yard. Li Zhao pulled the clumsy Yan Ting and taught him how to cook on a barbecue.

The housekeeper uncle stood not far away, watching Yan Ting be commanded by Li Zhao in a bewildered manner. The housekeeper uncle couldn’t conceal the smile on his face.

“Li Zhao as a child… was really so miserable?” In the dressing room, Song Yu read the news about Li Zhao and his mood became very complicated.

In the Overbearing Female President crew, he had laughed at Li Zhao for being poor. Now his conscience was struggling very hard.

No wonder why Li Zhao always ate cleanly when Song Yu bought him high-calorie foods. No wonder why Li Zhao pretended not to understand whenever Song Yu sneered at him and still took the food boxes with a smile.

Li Zhao was so abused and almost lost his life. Yet Song Yu relied on his foresight dream and wanted to take away the resources originally belonging to Li Zhao. He was nothing but a scum. If he wasn’t popular then he would go home and inherit his property at most. If Li Zhao wasn’t popular then he would have nothing.
