Chapter 355: Rumors about the Benefactor

He lowered his head to look at the small figure in his arms, who was slowly opening her eyes, and chuckled quietly.

"So my savior’s name is Suisui!"

Xiaosuisui blinked. "Didn’t I tell you my name?"

Zhao Fei shook his head. "No. The last time at the Temple, after you saved my younger sister, you hurriedly left with another savior. I didn’t even have time to ask for your name or the other savior’s name!"

Hearing Zhao Fei’s words, Xiaosuisui climbed down from his embrace. She first stretched her small body, then told him, "The beautiful older sister who was with me last time is Xie Pan’Er. She also came boating with us today. If she’s with my maternal grandmother, you’ll meet her soon."

"Wait! What did you say the beautiful older sister’s name was?"

Xie Pan’Er? Why does that name sound so familiar?

"Xie Pan’Er! The pretty older sister’s name."

Zhao Fei was stunned, his expression a little strange.

"What’s wrong? You look very strange!"

Zhao Fei hastily shook his head. "Nothing! The name just sounds familiar!"

Zhao Fei decided not to mention the rumors circulating outside to his savior; after all, she was still a child.

Zhao Fei didn’t say anything, and Xiaosuisui didn’t press further, as she had already heard the voices of her maternal grandmother and maternal aunts.

"My maternal grandmother and aunts are here," Xiaosuisui excitedly told Zhao Fei.

Hearing this, Zhao Fei nervously looked around. "Where?"

My savior’s status doesn’t seem simple, he thought. Her maternal grandmother and family must be from an esteemed and wealthy household. In their eyes, a young beggar like him was probably no different from a dead dog.

"Savior, since your family is here, I should leave first," Zhao Fei said, intending to leave. But just as he turned, his clothes were caught by the little girl.

"Your tummy must be hungry too. Wait until you’ve filled your stomach before you go!"

She had heard Zhao Fei’s stomach growling moments ago.

"No... no need..." Zhao Fei started to refuse, but...

"Hug!" Before he could finish his refusal, Xiaosuisui opened her arms and tilted her head up at him, asking for a hug.

Zhao Fei, unable to refuse her blinking, large eyes, picked her up.

"Feifei!"

Just as Zhao Fei held the little girl in his arms, a cheerful and delicate voice sounded near his ear.

Then... AAAH...

Even though Zhao Fei had experienced this once before, he still couldn’t escape being startled!

Old Madam Ji and the others rushed to the dock. From a distance, they spotted the largest, most beautiful painted pleasure barge there, so they quickened their pace.

A scream of "AAAH..." suddenly came from the sky. Everyone stopped in their tracks. They looked up; their vision blurred for a moment, and then something suddenly fell right in front of them.

Everyone stumbled back several steps and took a few deep breaths before they could clearly see what had landed before them.

"Maternal Grandmother! Second Aunt, Third Aunt, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, you’re all here!" the little girl in Zhao Fei’s arms cheerfully called out to Old Madam Ji and her group.

"Hey! You little girl, why did you list us two uncles last?"

Before anyone could express their joy at seeing the little girl, they heard Ji Youcheng’s complaining voice. Ji Youcheng had heard the little girl call out to all of them. She had called out to her maternal grandmother first, which was understandable; it was natural for a child to be close to her maternal grandmother. But why would she call her two aunts before calling them, her uncles? The main point was, he was the very last one she named!

Xiaosuisui blinked at his words but didn’t answer Ji Youcheng’s question. Instead, she looked behind them and asked curiously, "Huh! Where’s the beautiful older sister? Why isn’t she here?"

"She’s out looking for you, just like everyone else, and hasn’t regrouped with us yet. You naughty girl, you scared us all! Where did you run off to?" Huo Xing’Er stepped forward and took the little girl from Zhao Fei’s arms, chiding her, even as she glanced curiously at Zhao Fei.

This young man seems to carry a good deal of fortune! But his features... don’t suggest someone destined for great wealth!
