Huo Jincheng's expression immediately darkened.
"Can you be like Sister San?" Huo Jincheng's voice also became low and cold, his tone unusually stern. "What do you mean she can't have children? We haven't even planned to have kids."
Huo Jinge was taken aback, feeling wronged yet stubborn. "Sister San is still not accomplished."
"Can it be the same? Your Sister San is married, married to me. I am willing to pamper her like this," Huo Jincheng suppressed the rage in his heart. Although he knew that this little girl in front of him spoke without thinking, he still couldn't help but speak sternly.
But being a bit fierce is fine; otherwise, this spoiled little girl wouldn't know how to write the word "respect."
"But she has been working hard herself. Just look at you; you're young, without any life plan, not knowing how to work hard. When you're unhappy, you don't want to go to school and have no idea what to do next. What qualifications do you have to look down on those who work harder than you?"
Huo Jinge was so angry that she cried, her voice soft and aggrieved. "Third Brother, you've changed. Ever since you got married, you haven't treated me as well as before. You don't even ask if I'm being bullied at school; you just directly scold me. Boohoo..."
Turning away, Huo Jinge lay on the sofa and began to cry loudly.
After a moment of silence, Huo Jincheng's voice rang out, "What happened?"
"If you don't tell me and just keep crying, I can't help you solve the problem."
"Which teacher at school scolded you again?"
Huo Jinge understood the principle of knowing when to stop, and Third Brother's angry demeanor was truly terrifying. But she felt so sad; seeing Huo Jincheng's attitude soften made her unable to resist teasing him. "You scolded me just for saying a few words about Sister San. You're a bad person; I don't want to play with you anymore."
Huo Jincheng coldly reminded her, "I don't have time or leisure to play with you right now."
Huo Jinge stood up and stomped her foot. "I'm going to tell Sister San! Hmph!"
Huo Jinge didn't bother with him. "She's abroad now."
She doesn't have time to chat with me, let alone waste time with you, a spoiled little girl.
Huo Jinge's eyes were misty as she tapped a few times on her phone, and soon the face of Jian Yunong appeared on the screen, wearing a gentle smile.
"Sister San!" Huo Jinge dragged out her nasal tone, unable to help but act cute with Jian Yunong.
Huo Jincheng, who was sitting behind the desk, immediately cast a concerned glance at Huo Jinge and pointed at her emphatically from a distance.
How dare she disturb my daughter-in-law's sleep at this hour!
"What's wrong, Jing Ge?" Jian Yunong, leaning against the bed, noticed that Huo Jinge seemed to have just cried, and her voice didn't sound right.
Who dares to upset the precious girl?
Before Huo Jinge could speak, she felt a strong gaze; Huo Jincheng was glaring at her, warning her not to say anything reckless.
Huo Jinge stuck out her tongue at him; she wouldn't behave herself!
"Third Brother is bullying me! I said I don't want to go to school anymore, and Third Brother didn't even ask me why! What if someone is bullying me?" Huo Jinge pouted. "You tell me, isn't he bad?"
Jian Yunong chuckled; being young is wonderful. The biggest worry she had was just someone saying something inappropriate that made her unhappy.
"Then why don't you want to go to school?" Jian Yunong asked.
Huo Jinge thought for a moment. "Because there are always boys bullying me. That shameless boy brought his girlfriend to our school too. It makes me angry just looking at them. And his girlfriend's grades are better than mine. The teacher praises her but not me. I don't want to learn from such a blind teacher anymore."
Huo Jinge spoke vaguely; she didn't dare to tell her family about her romantic life. The only one who knew she had a boyfriend was Jian Yunong.
Huo Jincheng listened to his sister's words and shook his head in disbelief. She disturbed them over such trivial matters? This petty competition among girls was worth getting so worked up about?
"But if you don't study or transfer schools, in their memories, you'll be an eternal failure, you know?"
Jian Yunong sat up slightly. "If you're very angry and care about others' opinions, the best way to retaliate is to present a better image. You are the Fourth Young Lady of the Huo Family; you have many advantages over them."
Huo Jinge's eyes flickered, then she pouted. "I don't care about what others think! Whoever dares to speak ill of me will face bankruptcy!"
Jian Yunong rubbed her forehead. "Who taught you this?"
"Huo Jincheng!" Huo Jinge didn't even call him Third Brother anymore, clearly very upset!
Jian Yunong was somewhat incredulous, imagining a domineering CEO standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the clear autumn sky, taking the hot tea served by a servant, and slowly saying, "It's getting cold; let's make xxx go bankrupt."
It seemed fitting to associate the domineering CEO with Huo Jincheng.
"Huo Jinge," Huo Jincheng couldn't help but raise his voice, "I never taught you these things."
Huo Jinge snorted. "Just listen to how fierce he sounds!"
Jian Yunong chuckled softly. "He is quite fierce."
Huo Jincheng: "..."
Huo Jinge laughed along; she liked this way of interacting. Her tears had stopped falling. "Sister San, when are you coming back? Let's go shopping together; I'm so bored."
Huo Jincheng appeared indifferent but was actually focused on Jian Yunong's response.
This was a question he had never dared to ask, fearing it would touch Jian Yunong's sensitive nerves. Without Jian Yunong around, he found eating uninteresting. When would his little daughter-in-law's anger subside?
Jian Yunong's soft voice came through. "I probably won't be back anytime soon. But I will bring you gifts when I do."
If there are gifts, Huo Jinge is no longer angry, "Then help me teach Third Brother a lesson!"
Jian Yunong shook his head, "Me? How could I dare to teach him a lesson?"
Huo Jinge didn't care, skipping over to the desk and directly placing the phone in front of him.
Jian Yunong and Huo Jincheng had never done video calls before, and seeing each other on the phone clearly made both of them a bit uncomfortable.
When Huo Jincheng looked at Jian Yunong, he was no longer the stern figure who had just warned his sister; his voice softened, "Why are you still awake so late?"
The room was only illuminated by an orange wall lamp, casting a warm light that filled the upper part of the room and outlined Jian Yunong's shadow.
Her features softened in this gentle light, no longer as cold as when they had parted earlier.
Jian Yunong nodded, "It is indeed quite late. I should get some sleep."
Huo Jincheng: "..."
He clearly wanted to chat with her a bit more.
Reluctantly, he could only say, "Alright then. Good night."
