43 As Long as Ninth Imperial Uncle Interacted With Yaoyao Frequently, He Could See How Smart She Was
Huo Junhan’s gaze landed on the girl’s chest, and his palm shrank slightly.
Only then did Shen Yaowei realize how ambiguous her posture with Huo Junhan was. She suddenly let go of his hand and jumped up like a frightened rabbit, her face burning.
“Ninth, Ninth Imperial Uncle, I just wanted to warm your hands…”
In all honesty, she did not want to take advantage of him!
Huo Junhan sat up from the soft couch and pinched the space between his eyebrows. “Didn’t I say that you’re not allowed to step in here again…”
As he spoke, he turned his cold gaze toward Shen Yaowei.
Shen Yaowei was slightly stung by Huo Junhan’s cold gaze. Fear could not help but grow in her heart, and she subconsciously wanted to take a step back.
But the moment she realized she wanted to flinch, she forced herself to take a step forward.
“Ninth Imperial Uncle, do you feel uncomfortable now?” Shen Yaowei looked at Huo Junhan timidly with her big eyes.
Huo Junhan took in Shen Yaowei’s worried expression and pursed his thin lips.
“How long have you been here, little fool?”
The man’s hoarse voice was unfathomable.
Shen Yaowei pinched the corner of her shirt with her small hand and said softly, “From morning to night…”
As soon as she finished speaking, the wooden house fell into an eerie silence.
Seeing that Huo Junhan did not speak, Shen Yaowei felt that her heart had become a bottomless abyss.
“Little fool, do you really think I won’t kill you?” A moment later, Huo Junhan’s cold voice sounded again.
Shen Yaowei looked at Huo Junhan and grinned at him, revealing her white teeth and dimples.
“Ninth Imperial Uncle can’t bear to kill Yaoyao! Yaoyao is so obedient, and she won’t make Ninth Imperial Uncle angry!”
“I can’t bear to…” Huo Junhan sneered. The cold aura around him almost froze the air. “Little fool, you’re really interesting…”
Hearing the danger in Huo Junhan’s tone, Shen Yaowei watched as he raised his hand expressionlessly and an Ice Soul Short Sword condensed from spiritual energy flew towards her.
Her heart raced uncontrollably, but she stood still.
Whoosh—
Just as the Ice Soul Short Sword was inches from her neck, it stopped.
Huo Junhan looked at the girl, who was standing rooted to the ground, and pursed his thin lips unhappily.
However, before he could flare up, Shen Yaowei pursed her lips and cried.
Tears rolled down her face like broken beads as she covered her face and squatted down, whimpering.
Huo Junhan’s handsome face darkened completely. As his hands curled into fists, the Ice Soul Short Sword fell to the ground.
“Little fool, since you’re afraid, why didn’t you dodge?” Huo Junhan asked slowly.
Shen Yaowei looked up at Huo Junhan with teary eyes and burped. “My… My legs turned weak, and I couldn’t move. Otherwise, does Ninth Imperial Uncle think Yaoyao is stupid and doesn’t know how to hide…”
Huo Junhan was speechless.
“Why did Ninth Imperial Uncle bully Yaoyao…” Shen Yaoyao’s crying shoulders trembled, as if she had suffered a great grievance. “Yaoyao just wants to accompany Ninth Imperial Uncle. Ninth Imperial Uncle is so pitifully sick…”
Being stared at by Shen Yaowei with an aggrieved and accusing gaze, Huo Junhan slowly turned his face away and looked elsewhere. He said coldly, “It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have frightened a fool like you. Don’t cry.”
Shen Yaowei’s tears welled up even more. Like a little beast that had been stepped on, she stood up from the spot. “Yaoyao isn’t stupid! My father and my brothers all say that Yaoyao is the smartest! As long as Ninth Imperial Uncle interacts with Yaoyao often, he can see how smart she is!”
