I insist

Chapter 300: Watching the Show

“Of course, I’ll have a servant invite Yu Huailin. You and I will go to the main room to wait for him!” Song Miqiu led Liu Xiaoyue to the main room.

Liu Xiaoyue was even more excited when she saw the spacious main room. If Song Miqiu was so rich, then Yu Huailinran couldn't be much worse off. She hurriedly found a stool and sat down, placing the food box on the table next to her.

Yu Huailin walked into the hall with a happy expression and saw a woman sitting next to Song Miqiu. He then suppressed his joy.

Yu Huailin put on a cold expression. He had been overjoyed, thinking that Song Miqiu was going to see him, but he didn't expect there to be another person next to him.

Upon seeing the man in white, Liu Xiaoyue immediately displayed a lovesick expression.

"Young Master Yu, Young Master Yu..." Liu Xiaoyue saw Yu Huailin and immediately stood up and ran towards him.

Yu Huailin looked disgusted and frowned.

Who are you?

Liu Xiaoyue was somewhat unhappy to see Yu Huailin being so indifferent and pretending not to recognize her.

"Young Master Yu, this is the osmanthus cake I made. Please try it. If you don't like it, I'll make it again." Although Liu Xiaoyue was unhappy, she still didn't forget her purpose.

“I won’t eat it.” Yu Huailin refused without any politeness.

"I made this myself, I'll be very sad if you don't eat it." Liu Xiaoyue looked hurt.

"So what if I'm sad? What does it have to do with me?" Yu Huailin was absolutely annoyed by the woman in front of him.

"Young Master Yu, why are you keeping me at arm's length?" Liu Xiaoyue saw that Yu Huailin kept rejecting her, and tears streamed down her face, covered with a thick layer of powder.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoyue's makeup had all come off, Song Miqiu thought to herself, "Did Liu Xiaoyue put all the powder in the house on her face?"

Yu Huailin was so bothered by Liu Xiaoyue that he wished he could throw the woman out right now.

"Young lady, have you mistaken me for someone else? I don't know you." Yu Huailin barely suppressed his anger.

Seeing that Yu Huailin didn't recognize her, Liu Xiaoyue quickly said, "Yesterday I fell down, and you helped me up."

Song Miqiu, munching on the apple beside him, said with an indifferent attitude, "Oh, I see, a hero saving a damsel in distress."

Hearing Song Miqiu say this, Liu Xiaoyue lowered her head shyly, but Yu Huailin stared at her with a dark expression on his face.

Yu Huailin was furious. Not only did Song Miqiu not help him, but she also made fun of him like this.

"When did I ever help you up? I didn't even touch you."

Although he was unhappy with Song Miqiu's indifferent attitude, he still didn't want her to misunderstand him.

Song Miqiu was well aware that Yu Huailin, with his personality, would not meddle in other people's business.

"Just yesterday, at the market..." Liu Xiaoyue persisted.

"You got up on your own; it has nothing to do with me."

Liu Xiaoyue had always wanted to get close to Yu Huailin, while Yu Huailin wished he had nothing to do with her.

"How could you be so heartless?" Liu Xiaoyue said, and then burst into tears.

"Get out of here right now!" Yu Huailin didn't want to say anything more to this woman and directly ordered her to leave.

Liu Xiaoyue stared at Yu Huailin with what she thought were tender and affectionate eyes, hoping he would change his mind.

Yu Huailin didn't even glance at her.

"Young Master..." Liu Xiaoyue wanted to say something more.

Yu Huailin had reached his limit of patience, his murderous eyes fixed on Liu Xiaoyue.

Liu Xiaoyue felt a chill run down her spine from Yu Huailin's gaze. She grabbed the food box and ran outside.

"They're leaving already? That's too fast!" Song Miqiu put the apple aside with some disappointment; she hadn't had enough of looking at it yet.

"What, haven't you had enough yet?"

Yu Huailin's cold tone carried a hint of anger. Not only did he not help him, but he also stood by and watched the show.

Song Miqiu could sense that Yu Huailin's tone was off, so she quickly smiled and said, "What are you saying? I didn't find that Liu Xiaoyue."

"It was Liu Xiaoyue who asked me to bring you osmanthus cake. She asked me about it, but you have so many things to do, and you even said you wanted to repay her kindness. What could I do?"

Song Miqiu pouted, her face full of displeasure, lamenting the trouble she had attracted.

Why didn't you tell me I wasn't there?

"They came prepared, how could I refuse?"

“Unlike some people, who attract unwanted attention but don’t want anyone to talk about it.” Song Miqiu deliberately emphasized the word “unwanted attention.”

Yu Huailin felt as if someone had grabbed his throat and made him speechless; only Song Miqiu could make him experience such emotional ups and downs.

He forced out a single word: "You..."

"What do you mean, 'I'? I'm perfectly fine, unlike some people who rely on their good looks to attract attention."

Yu Huailin was so angry with Song Miqiu that he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

"I do not have……"

"There's nothing I can do about it; being good-looking makes it easy to attract romantic attention."

Yu Huailin tried to calm himself down.

"What kind of peach blossom is she? Look at her, she's not even as pretty as you, an old woman, dressed up today."

When Song Miqiu heard Yu Huailin mention him, he was momentarily distracted.

"Aren't you afraid of hurting people's feelings by talking about them like that?"

"I'm not afraid of hurting other people's feelings, I'm just afraid of hurting you."

Yu Huailin understood Song Miqiu. He knew he couldn't win an argument with her, but he still had ways to shut her up.

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu's cheeks flushed instantly. This Song Miqiu was really something; she never missed an opportunity to flirt with him.

Seeing Song Miqiu blush, Yu Huailin's mood instantly lifted from the frustration he had just felt from Liu Xiaoyue's unreasonable nagging.

"Don't say such things in broad daylight," Song Miqiu said, trying her best not to stutter.

“Okay, okay, I know our Miqiu is shy and can’t say anything.” Yu Huailin said, leaning close to Song Miqiu’s ear.

Song Miqiu's cheeks were originally red, but now even her ears were red.

"Don't get so close to me." Song Miqiu pushed Yu Huailin away.

Yu Huailin wasn't angry; on the contrary, he was very happy.

Liu Mansion

"You're back! How did it go?" Liu's mother hurriedly went out to greet Liu Xiaoyue.

Liu Xiaoyue was not unhappy at all because of Yu Huailin's rejection; on the contrary, she believed that she could definitely win him over.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll definitely make him fall in love with me and marry me in a few days." Liu Xiaoyue's resolute demeanor reassured her mother.

"Then you'd better seize the opportunity and not miss it."

Liu Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly.

"I will do everything in my power to capture you, young master."

After finishing his meal, Song Miqiu lay on the swing in his backyard, the warm sunshine making him feel comfortable and relaxed. He squinted his eyes.

Yu Huailin bent down and brought his face close to Song Miqiu's. Song Miqiu felt a breath and quickly opened her eyes. When she saw that Yu Huailin's face was almost touching hers, she jumped up.

She said, flustered, "Why are you so close to me?"

"Whether you're asleep or not, what can I do, or what do you want me to do?" The tone was ambiguous.

Song Miqiu blushed, unsure how to respond.

Yu Huailin stopped teasing her.

"I need to talk to you about something."

Upon hearing that Yu Huailin wanted to see her, Song Miqiu feigned composure and asked, "What is it?"
