Chapter 832: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (4)
Perhaps the Penalan royal family even found out about random people Yu Bao’er had come across with. But even if it was so random she had no recollection of it.
Following Huo Yingcheng over there, Yu Bao’er indeed saw at first glance Yao Yanshen and his family.
There were a lot of people around, and everyone was familiar with each other, so they were gathered together.
Even the noble and elegant Hilda was merrily chatting with Gu Qingjiu’s parents.
Yu Bao’er thought that she would feel awkward, but when she saw Yao Yanshen, it was quite alright.
Yao Yanshen wasn’t as restrained as Yu Bao’er. When he saw her walking over, he even walked over to her with interest. “Bao’er, you’re here too?”
He knew that Gu Qingjiu and Yu Bao’er were pretty close, and had guessed that she would invite Yu Bao’er.
Yu Bao’er curled her lips. “Yeah.”
This was the legendary awkward smile.
“What are you worried about? We broke up peacefully back then.”
Yao Yanshen smiled and looked towards Huo Yingcheng who was standing beside her.
Since he had never seen Huo Yingcheng, he raised a brow in curiosity. “Is this your new boyfriend?”
“No, no, no, no, no!”
Yu Bao’er instantly shook her head vigorously and said, “Just look at him and you’ll know he’s not my type.”
There wasn’t malicious intent behind her words, but when Huo Yingcheng heard this he let out a ‘tsk.’ “Yu Bao’er, you can’t kick someone to the curb when they’ve outlived their usefulness. Even though we’re not boyfriend and girlfriend, you don’t have to say something so hurtful. What do you mean by ‘I’m not your type?’ Am I ugly or what?”
Yao Yanshen cast a meaningful look at him and Yu Bao’er.
Yu Bao’er widened her eyes. “Commander Huo, I’m not kicking someone to the curb when they’ve outlived their usefulness. I’m speaking the truth!”
“You...”
“Yingcheng!”
All of a sudden, a voice rang.
Huo Yingcheng’s expression froze.
Yu Bao’er and Yao Yanshen looked over, and saw an elegantly dressed middle-aged woman, who had accompanied Gu Qingjiu’s parents, standing up.
Even though age could be seen on her face, it didn’t conceal her elegant aura.
Huo Yingcheng slightly coughed at the sight of her. “Mom.”
Wah, Commander Huo’s mother, was truly the standard example of beauty with an excellent disposition.
What astonished Yu Bao’er was, this beautiful woman was gazing at her with interest. “This young lady is...?”
Huo Yingcheng tugged at his mother and let out a dry cough. “Mom, don’t let your thoughts run wild. I was just joking around with this young lady. She was a soldier under my charge when I was in the Chinese army.”
“Aiyoh, so you’re superior and subordinate? Wasn’t Qingjiu Niancheng’s subordinate as well?!”
The woman glanced at Yu Bao’er with a bright sparkle in her eyes.
Regardless of how slow-witted Yu Bao’er was, she could tell that this woman was looking at her with an abnormal gaze. She instantly retreated one or two steps.
Seeing Yu Bao’er behave in this manner, Huo Yingcheng glared at her.
He looked kind of scary when he glared at people like this.
Yu Bao’er felt that she was very innocent.
She immediately stuck out her tongue at Huo Yingcheng, clearly mocking him.
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
Dammit. He merely wanted to tease this lass a little just now, but it hadn’t occurred to him that his mother was around.
His mother had been pressing him to get married for a few years now. Hearing him joke about something like this, you could just imagine how excited she felt.
