Chapter 372: Chapter 372: The Little Guy is Really Nice_1

But it was only for a moment, she quickly calmed herself down.

After all, she had over twenty years of life experience, there was no reason for her to be shaken by a little boy of merely seven years old.

Besides, this child would become an uneducated profligate spender twenty years later.

With that thought, Chu Yanxi immediately regained her composure, and she explained to Huo Ting, "Huo Ting, you’ve misunderstood, I wasn’t speaking ill of Susu, I just wanted Yunyun to know that her family is not in good shape right now and she needs to work extra hard to change her fate and live a life like Susu’s!"

Chu Yanxi did not want to make an enemy of Huo Ting just yet, for no matter how recklessly Huo Ting wasted his fortune in the future, or how uneducated he became, as long as his father Huo Chengyi was around, his social status and worth would always be out of reach for others; offending him was not a wise choice.

So Chu Yanxi quickly corrected what she had just said.

"But I just heard you tell the crybaby that Susu was giving her handouts!"

"Isn’t a handout a way of helping people?" Chu Yanxi put on a confused and bewildered expression.

"Of course not! A handout is..." Huo Ting wanted to explain, but after thinking it over, it seemed that a handout indeed meant helping people...

If that was the case, then using the word ’handout’ didn’t seem incorrect.

Huo Ting felt that something was off about what Chu Yanxi said, but with his limited knowledge of language, he couldn’t pinpoint what specifically was wrong.

After pondering for a moment, Huo Ting changed the subject, "Then didn’t you also say something like ’you think they actually care about you’?"

"Is what I said wrong?" Chu Yanxi batted her eyes, a face full of innocence and guilelessness, "I thought people should rely on themselves, they can’t just depend on others being kind to them!"

This... Looking at Chu Yanxi’s young face, Huo Ting was somewhat persuaded.

"Then why were you and the little one unhappy at the Lotus Pool today?" Huo Ting asked further.

"I... I know she didn’t do it on purpose... but I really was upset because she bumped into me..." As Chu Yanxi spoke of the incident, she began to feel genuinely wronged.

This time, her grief was not feigned but genuine.

Just the thought of that distress and desolation made her eyes turn red.

"Alright, don’t be sad, the little one didn’t mean it, she’s actually a nice person, just a bit too strong and sometimes doesn’t know her own strength, you should not blame her," Huo Ting comforted her.

"Yes, I know she didn’t mean it, I won’t get angry," Chu Yanxi agreed.

"Good, that’s more like it!" Huo Ting said sternly, trying to act mature.

Though more sensitive and insightful than his peers, he was, after all, just a seven-year-old child who sometimes failed to recognize highly disguised lies.

Under Chu Yanxi’s explanation, Huo Ting was convinced.

Seeing Huo Ting’s reaction, Chu Yanxi revealed a satisfied smile within her heart.

She thought, if only Lu Zhanyu would fall for her lies as easily as Huo Ting.

Looking at Huo Ting who had easily believed her lies, Chu Yanxi conceived a plan, since she couldn’t deal with Lu Zhanyu in the short term, why not start with Huo Ting and first sow discord in his relationship with Qin Susu.

Thereupon, Chu Yanxi said to Huo Ting, "Oh right, Susu and my cousin went out."

"They went out? What are they doing?" Huo Ting became annoyed upon hearing the news.

Why is the little one out with that surnamed Lu again!

They were still in a quarrel! Is she just ignoring him like that?!
