Reborn To Love

Chapter 49 The Duck Song

She was certain that He Xinyan was lying. . .

After a short silence, Wu Minger laughed lightly and replied, "Yep, why? Are you coming tomorrow again?"

He Xinyan smiled with satisfaction and replied cheerfully, "Nothing! I won't be coming tomorrow. Good night, Minger!"

"Good night!" Wu Minger replied.

He Xinyan hung up the call and looked up at Li Huiran, whose mouth had fallen open in surprise. Bai Jiawei sighed and glared at Li Yuyan, "Okay, good. I know Minger and she is a good kid. However, you shouldn't go bother them all the time.

"I know, dad. Is there anything else? If there isn't I'm leaving."

"You can -" Before Bai Jiawei could finish his sentence, Li Huiran seemed to come out from her shock as she looked up at He Xinyan.

"No, there is no way you were at the Wu family's house."

Bai Jiawei frowned and turned around to look at Li Huiran.

"Jiawei, I saw He Xinyan get into a black car with a man yesterday. The man is very tall and young. I'm sure I saw her leave with him!"

He Xinyan smiled. No wonder why Li Huiran told Bai Jiawei about her being gone the past few days. It was because she had evidence. . . But a mouth wasn't enough to prove anything.

"Auntie Li, what are you talking about? A man? That car belonged to Wu Minger's brother and she came to pick me up. Did you see something wrong?"

Li Huiran glared at He Xinyan, "No, I'm sure."

Bai Jiawei stood up from the dining table and slammed the fork onto the table, "Enough, Li Huiran! Xinyan already said she was over at Wu Minger's house, so why are you still making things up!"

"I'm not! I -"

"As an elder, is this how you should behave and treat Yanyan?" Bai Jiawei pointed a finger at Li Huiran angrily, "Yanyan, you can go upstairs."

"Okay, good night!" He Xinyan shrugged before going upstairs. She had to praise Bai Jiawei for his amazing acting skills. If it weren't for the fact that she knew about his secrets, she would have believed his act and really thought that he loved her and treated her very well.

But it was all fake. Maybe Bai Jiawei still had some feelings for her, because she was his daughter. However, she couldn't forgive him. His feelings were like glass; easily broken.

He Xinyan entered her bedroom and closed the door behind her. A few minutes later, she heard someone stomp up the stairs, and she guessed that it was probably Bai Jiawei.

She didn't know what Li Huiran or Li Yuyan were doing still downstairs, but she didn't care. He Xinyan washed up before climbing onto the bed with her laptop, and she began searching up recipes for omelette rolls.

Eggs, carrots, scallions, salt, black peppers, vegetable oil. . .

She scrolled through the directions and realized that it was very simple. With a smile, He Xinyan saved the recipe and closed her laptop before crawling into her blanket to watch dramas on her phone.

She watched late into midnight in her bed without closing the lights. She told herself that it was because the drama was too addicting, but in reality, it was because she was waiting for someone.

Finally, after several episodes, the balcony door clicked open. He Xinyan wasn't facing the balcony, but her eyes lit up when she heard the slight sound.

The door closed and a deep voice said, "Xinyan, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I. . ." He Xinyan closed her phone and turned around, "I was watching a drama."

Gu Yechen sighed and took her phone away before closing the lights, "Let's go to sleep."

He Xinyan nodded her head like an obedient child and helped lift the blanket up for Gu Yechen so he could get onto the bed. Gu Yechen wrapped one arm around He Xinyan's body and they laid down. He Xinyan snuggled up against Gu Yechen's warm chest and closed her eyes.

Now it was time to sleep.

---

The next morning, Gu Yechen was gone before He Xinyan woke up, but like always, there was a single red rose inside the vase on He Xinyan's bed stand.

"A duck walked up to the lemonade stand and he said to the man, running the stand, 'Hey!' bum bum bum got any grapes?" He Xinyan hummed 'The Duck Song' as she skipped over to the restroom to get ready for the day.

She walked down for breakfast and Bai Jiawei was already gone for work. He Xinyan slightly frowned when she thought of the fact that Bai Jiawei was the current boss of the He Corporation.

She couldn't do anything right now. . . But He Xinyan was determined to get the He Corporation back. Her grandpa had worked so hard to start and build the He Corporation, but now, Bai Jiawei had stolen it.

He Xinyan took a deep breath and sat down at the dining table. She was the only heir of the He Corporation now. No matter what, she was going to get everything back!

But now wasn't the time. She had nothing to fight against Bai Jiawei. . . Although He Xinyan didn't want to, she had to wait. When everything was ready, she was going to get her revenge!

As He Xinyan was eating her breakfast, Li Yuyan walked down the stairs in her nightgown. She was yawning and a large frown appeared on her face when she saw He Xinyan.

With nobody around, Li Yuyan didn't even try to act nice to He Xinyan. She pulled her chair out with a bang and sat down. He Xinyan quickly finished her food and stood up to leave.

"Where are you going?"

He Xinyan completely ignored her as she walked away.

"Are you afraid of me, He Xinyan?"

He Xinyan smirked but she continued to walk, which aggravated Li Yuyan.

"He Xinyan, I'm not going to be home today because I will be going over to. . . Su Zhiming's house for the night. Can you tell my mom?" Li Yuyan crossed her arms together and grinned.

He Xinyan rolled her eyes and stopped. Li Yuyan was truly stupid. . . Su Zhiming was the only thing Li Yuyan had against her but she didn't even care about him. It was kind of funny watching Li Yuyan attack her using the same thing over and over again and thinking that she was successful when in reality, He Xinyan didn't even care.

He Xinyan turned around and raised one eyebrow, "Do you not have a mouth or do you not know how to talk?"
