Murong Chen glanced at Xian Yu’s face emotionlessly. Then, he looked at the girl in his arms, took her, and carried her upstairs.
Nan Qiao was drowsy. She felt that she was being carried and was relieved to smell Murong Chen’s scent. She closed her eyes and leaned into Murong Chen’s arms, taking the opportunity to sleep for two more minutes.
Seeing that Murong Chen completely ignored him, Xian Yu was furious and said to the old butler, “Uncle Yang, look! He ignored me again! He really doesn’t like me at all.”
Xian Yu was the youngest child in the family and Murong Chen inherited the company, so there was no need for the other brothers to work hard at all. They could also manage the company as they had all studied professionally after all.
However, Murong Chen had shouldered all the storms alone, so they could do whatever they wanted.
The other Big Brothers’ career choices were more or less of status. Only Xian Yu chose to debut as a celebrity. Over the years, his reviews were mixed.
Uncle Yang was the old butler of the family. He had watched Nan Qiao’s mother, Murong Yan, grow up and knew every child in the family very well. Now that he was faced with Xian Yu’s accusation, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
…..
“Alright, Fifth Young Master, stop fooling around. It’s not easy for you to come home. You must be tired today. You should rest early.”
Uncle Yang had gone home on leave some time ago. When he heard that Missy had returned, he was so excited that he couldn’t sleep the entire night and rushed back to see the child.
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain. He even managed to see Xian Yu, who was outside all year round.
Normally, he might not even get to see Xian Yu during the new year.
“I know, Uncle Yang, you really don’t want to help me,” Xian Yu muttered softly.
However, in fact, it was just a child acting coquettishly with his parents. He did not take it to heart at all.
Nan Qiao woke up in a daze and looked at the time. It was six in the morning. She had slept early last night.
After familiarizing herself with the place, she went downstairs for a run.
“Where’s Uncle Yang and Qiaoqiao?” Murong Chen asked nervously.
Murong Chen habitually brought a rose for Nan Qiao after he got up, but Nan Qiao’s door was not closed today. There was no one inside.
“Missy went for a run. She should be back soon.” Uncle Yang stood at the door and looked at his watch. Indeed, he could see Nan Qiao from afar.
When Nan Qiao rushed in, she grabbed the bottle of water and drank it crazily. She only stopped after drinking an entire bottle.
Murong Chen was very pleased to see his sister in sportswear with her hair in a bun. He felt like his Little Sister had grown up.
“Qiaoqiao, come over and let me introduce you. This is Uncle Yang, the old butler of our family.”
Although Uncle Yang’s temples were a little gray, the beard on his face was trimmed clean. He looked kind and had a smile on his face at all times. He was like an amiable old man.
“Hello, Missy.”
“Hello, Uncle Yang,” Nan Qiao greeted obediently.
Uncle Yang’s eyes welled up with tears. “I really didn’t expect this old man to be able to see the day you return.”
“Missy indeed looks like your mother. You’re both so bright and moving. How gratified would the chairman be if he saw you?”
“Uncle Yang, have you seen my mother before?” Hearing the topic of her mother, Nan Qiao was excited. Her mother had passed away for many years. In addition, Nan Qiao, who had two lifetimes of memories, could not remember what her mother looked like.
“Of course. I watched your mother grow up. Miss Murong was very quiet and obedient since young. She was also proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Anyone who saw her would like her. However, no one expected Miss Murong to choose Nankang in the end…”
Uncle Yang wanted to cuss at Nankang, but when he saw that Nan Qiao was here, he remembered that that person was her father after all. In the end, he endured it. It was not good to scold the father in front of the child.
“Then Uncle Yang, can you tell me more about my mother?” Nan Qiao heard Uncle Yang’s concerns and changed the topic.
“Of course.”

Breakfast time is over and Xian Yu still hasn’t woken up. Before Nan Qiao went to school, she even took a look upstairs.
“Big Brother, Fifth Brother has work today, right? Is it really good to let him sleep in like this?” Nan Qiao was very worried that if no one called Fifth Brother, he might sleep until noon before waking up, right?
“Ignore him. Adults should have self discipline. Just let him experience some of society’s beatings.”
Nan Qiao sweated.
Murong Chen was really a good Big Brother. Who would cheat their younger brother like this?
However, it was time for her to go to school. She could only go to school obediently.
Murong Chen sent her to the school gate and went straight to the company.
As soon as Nan Qiao got out of the car, she saw An Nuo waiting for her at the side. She immediately stretched out her hands to An Nuo.
Immediately, An Nuo pounced on her.
“Qiao, you’re finally back. You don’t know how bored I’ve been the past few days since you left.”
“How boring can it be?” Nan Qiao asked with a smile.
“You’re still laughing? Don’t you know that although Nan Zhi is no longer around, a transfer student came the day before yesterday. 1 don’t know what’s wrong with this transfer student, but she’s so arrogant that she’s like a peacock. She doesn’t like anyone in her class except for the two school hunks. How annoying.”
Although the transfer student had only been here for two days, An Nuo’s resentment towards her was not small.
Nan Qiao glanced at An Nuo mockingly. “Are you jealous?”
An Nuo rolled her eyes. “Why would I be jealous? I’m a woman with Xian Yu’s private photo. How can I be jealous of her?”
“It’s just that this woman is really annoying. You’ll know when you see her later.”
Nan Qiao sneaked to Huo Yichen’s class, left him breakfast, and sneaked back to class.
When she returned to class, she found a girl sitting in the middle of the third row. The girl sat up straight and flipped through books. Every book was wrapped in an exquisite book cover.
The girl had long hair that hung down her back. It was a princess-cut hairstyle. Her facial features were exquisite, and her entire face looked cold and noble. Her skin was fair and translucent. One look and one could tell that she was the little princess of the family.
However, Nan Qiao noticed that this girl’s deskmate had deliberately kept a distance from her. Logically speaking, it was best for deskmates to stabilize their relationship. They had only been here for two days, so it shouldn’t be like this.
An Nuo only needed to glance at Nan Qiao’s gaze to know what she was thinking. “Stop looking. It’s just as you think. As soon as she sat down, she despised Xu You’s smell and said that she smelled bad. She dissed her in public. Xu You was so angry that she hid and cried for a long time.”
Nan Qiao:…
“This girl…”
“Hehe, there’s even more annoying things about her. Just you wait..”
