"Hey, why so polite?" Xia Dabao said with a smile, then took Axian's hand again. "Let's go see if there's anything we can help with at mom's."
Watching the siblings' retreating figures, Tian Xiaobei gave another warm smile.
Having just listened to Xia Dabao and Ye's conversation, he felt once again that this family was especially warm and wonderful.
He set down the accounting book and pen, peeled a lychee he was about to eat, but before it could reach his mouth, someone kicked it away. He was startled for a moment, then upon looking up, he saw Zhao Datu.
Zhao Datu didn't speak either, simply crossed his arms over his chest with a "you know what I mean" look, arrogantly staring at Tian Xiaobei.
He wouldn't allow Tian Xiaobei to get close to Xia Dabao, let alone let him eat her food.
Tian Xiaobei didn't resist, simply picked up the paper and pen from the ground, dusted off the dirt on his buttocks, and walked over to the transport cart to check the numbers.
