The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 1037: Chapter 1097

"Dad, I’ve already done the test, she’s my daughter." Rong Shu was excited.

"Dad, I really know I was wrong. I swear I’ll never do anything stupid again. Please, for the child’s sake, give me another chance." Mrs. Rong wasn’t young anymore; having a baby at this age was dangerous in itself.

Even if Elder Rong didn’t like her, he still had to give the child some face.

"This is your own business, you handle it yourself." Elder Rong said.

"Alright, Dad, I got it." Rong Shu nodded and smiled. He really liked this little daughter of his; these past two days he couldn’t even bear to let go of her when he slept.

"Qiqi, you came at just the right time, come take a look at your little cousin." Lening smiled when she saw her daughter come in. In her view, adding a new member to the Family was always a good thing.

Qiao Qiqi’s gaze fell on the baby’s face. "Let me hold her," she said.

Lening wanted to take the child and hand her to her daughter, but Mrs. Rong hurriedly held the baby tight and dodged, saying, "She’s still little and shy around strangers. She doesn’t like strangers holding her."

For a moment, the atmosphere turned a bit awkward, but Mrs. Rong still avoided them with a firm look on her face, not letting anyone touch her daughter.

"Then forget it, there’ll be plenty of chances when she grows up. I’m going upstairs." Qiao Qiqi said with a smile and left first.

"Dad, I’m not staying over tonight. The baby’s small and won’t adapt well to changing environments. When she’s older, I’ll move her back." Mrs. Rong kept holding the baby tightly, not letting anyone touch her.

She also had a maid with her, one she’d brought along. Other than her, only this maid was allowed to hold the baby.

Elder Rong didn’t say anything. He said he was tired and went back to his room to rest as well.

When she got upstairs, Qiao Qiqi glanced back down at Mrs. Rong and the baby. She frowned in puzzlement. Why did this former aunt seem so afraid of anyone touching the child?

"What’s so great to look at? It’s just some dumb kid. Look how smug she is! It’s not like she’s made of ice cream and we’re going to eat her or something!" Rong Che snorted angrily, clearly in a bad mood.

"Jealous?" Qiao Qiqi looked at this Brother Wu in amusement.

"Who’s jealous? Who’d be jealous of some dumb little kid? Quit talking nonsense!" Rong Che turned his head away in embarrassment.

"..."

"What? I wasn’t trying to say anything about you, I just..."

Qiao Qiqi had been lost in thought, and when she heard Brother Wu’s words she laughed. "I know, how could I hold a grudge against my little brother? I was just thinking about something, that’s all."

Seeing that she really wasn’t angry, Rong Che finally relaxed. "Who’s your little brother? And you’re not allowed to bring that up ever again."

"Ha, it wasn’t easy for me to finally get a little brother, why wouldn’t I bring it up? I never had any younger brothers or sisters... now I’ve got a little sister." Qiao Qiqi said with a smile.

"The old man is really something, having another kid who’s even younger than his own granddaughter. What kind of messed‑up situation is that?" Rong Che still felt annoyed.

...

Rong Yun happened to come home today, and in the evening he went to his sister’s room to chat for a bit. "I saw that little girl, she actually looks quite a bit like me."

"Second Brother, she’s just a baby, how could she look like you?" Qiao Qiqi was speechless. It seemed Second Brother had taken the news of his biological father giving him a new little sister quite well.

"She really does. Her nose and mouth are exactly the same, just the eyes are a bit different. She’s definitely going to be a beauty in the future, though she’ll never be as pretty as our Qiqi." Rong Yun said with a smile.
