Nian Xiaomu hanya tercengang beberapa detik, dan saat sadar kembali, dia teriakkan kata-kata yang ingin dia sampaikan ke punggung pria itu.
Hanya tujuh kata sederhana, tapi membuat semua orang di ruang tamu menarik napas kaget.
Bagaimana dia bisa begitu berani dan kurang ajar?
Beres-benar memanggil nama Tuan Muda dengan nada seperti itu…
Ekspresi orang-orang di sekitar Nian Xiaomu penuh belas kasihan, seolah mereka sudah membayangkan nasibnya dilontarkan keluar vila.
Pastilah Nian Xiaomu terbawa amarah.
Saat dia akhirnya menyadari tatapan semua orang, dia sadar apa yang sudah dilakukannya.
Tapi memikirkan Yu Yuehan benar-benar memecatnya tanpa menelusuri siapa benar siapa salah, membuat amarahnya berkobar lagi. Tidak mungkin dia yang tunduk dulu!
"…" Mendengar itu, Yu Yuehan berhenti di tempat.
Badan tinggi di tangga dibungkus kesembelitnya.
Suasana ruang tamu berubah dalam sekejap.
Semua menahan napas dan berkeringat dingin khawatir nasib Nian Xiaomu.
Detik berikutnya, sosok kecil lembut berlari keluar kamar dan lari ke sisi Yu Yuehan, merangkul betisnya.
"Ayih nggak boleh usir Kakak Cantik! Liuliu mau Kakak Cantik jaga Liuliu!" Xiao Liuliu mengembungkan pipi dan memelototi ayahnya dengan mata bulat lebar.
Tangannya terluka dan tangan lain tidak bisa memeluk erat. Alih-alih itu, dia gunakan tangan dan kaki untuk melekat di badan ayahnya, menolak melepaskan.
"Sudah kasih dia kesempatan, tapi dia tidak bisa kerjakan tugasnya dengan baik." Yu Yuehan menatap gadis kecil yang melekat di badannya, dan kedengkian di wajahnya mereda.
Dia membungkuk dan mengangkat anaknya.
"Ayih janji cari kakak yang lebih cantik besok buat jaga Liuliu."
"Tak mau! Liuliu mau kakak cantik ini!" Xiao Liuliu menjeling dan mendengus sedih.
"Jangan nangis, Xiao Liuliu!"
"Wah-wah…"
Belum sempat Yu Yuehan selesai bicara, gadis kecil di pelukannya sudah meneteskan air mata memikirkan harus pisah dengan Kakak Cantik.
Ekspresi patah hati dan putus asa itu menyayat hati.
Kepala kecil menggosokkan ke dadanya, sambil menahan tangis dengan merana, "Liuliu… cuma mau… Kakak Cantik… Ayih Jahat…"
Yu Yuehan: "…"
"Bisa janji apapun, tapi soal ini tidak. Dia harus pergi hari ini!" kata Yu Yuehan dengan muram. Tanpa menatap Nian Xiaomu, dia membawa Xiao Liuliu naik ke atas.
Kegaduhan pecah di ruang tamu.
Hanya Fang Zhenyi yang tak bisa menyembunyikan kegembiraan di wajahnya.
"Yu Yuehan, jangan kamu menyesal!" Nian Xiaomu berteriak ke punggung pria itu.
Saat dia menghadap Fang Zhenyi yang sombong, dia menyipitkan mata, mengambil gelas dari meja kopi, dan berlari lurus ke depan.
"Wah—"
Sebuah gelas air penuh dihujankan ke wajahnya tanpa ampun.
"Ah! Nian Xiaomu, kamu gila!" Fang Zhenyi berteriak ketakutan. Dia tak pernah duga Nian Xiaomu benar-benar menyiram air ke wajahnya di depan begitu banyak orang.
Air hangat langsung merusak make up-nya.
Diserbu tangisan dan teriakan, pemandangan sedih tak layak ditengok.
"Gelas air ini balasan dari aku. Kamu lebih baik jangan bertemu aku lagi kalau keluar. Kalau tidak, setiap ketemu aku pasti siram air!" Nian Xiaomu membanting gelas di tangannya ke meja kopi. Lalu dia berbalik pergi tanpa menoleh ke orang-orang di ruang tamu.
Pembantu rumah tangga baru sadar dan berkata, "Nian Xiaomu, gajimu hari ini…"
"Tidak usah! Simpan untuk Tuan Muda dan carikan dokter buat perbaiki kepalanya!"

Nian Xiaomu was only stupefied for a few seconds, and when she recovered her senses, she blurted out what she wanted to say to the back view of that man.
It was only seven simple words, but it made everyone in the hall inhale in shock.
How could she be so bold and insolent?
To actually call out Young Master’s name and in such a tone…
The looks on the people’s faces around Nian Xiaomu were filled with sympathy, as if they could already picture her fate of being thrown out of the villa.
Nian Xiaomu must have let her anger get the better of her.
When she finally noticed how everyone was looking at her, she realized exactly what she had done.
But the thought of Yu Yuehan actually firing her without finding out who was right and who was wrong made her rage with fury again. No way would she bow down first!
“…” Hearing that, Yu Yuehan stopped in his tracks.
The tall figure that stood at the foot of the staircase was enveloped in iciness.
The atmosphere in the living room changed in an instant.
Everyone held their breaths and broke into cold sweat over Nian Xiaomu’s fate.
In the next second, a soft and cuddly little figure ran out of the room and straight to Yu Yuehan’s side, clutching his calf.
“Daddi cannot chase Pretty Sister away! I want Pretty Sister to look after me!” Xiao Liuliu puffed up her cheeks and glared at her father with her big round eyes.
Her arm was injured and her other arm could not hold onto Yu Yuehan tightly. Instead, she used her hand and legs to cling onto his body, refusing to let him go.
“I have already given her a chance, but she could not even do her job properly.” Yu Yuehan looked at the little girl who was hanging onto him, and the frostiness about him dissipated.
He bent over and lifted her up.
“Daddi promises to look for an even prettier sister tomorrow to look after you.”
“I don’t want! I want this pretty sister!” Xiao Liuliu pouted her lips and sniffled sadly.
“Do not cry, Xiao Liuliu!”
“Wah-wah…”
Before Yu Yuehan could finish his words, the little girl in his arms started shedding tears at the thought of having to be apart from Pretty Sister.
The look of heartbreak and despondency was heart-wrenching.
The small head rubbed into his chest, aggrievedly choked back tears, and said, “I, only want, Pretty Sister… Bad Daddi…”
Yu Yuehan: “…”
“I can promise you anything, just not regarding this matter. She has to leave today!” Yu Yuehan’s said grimly. Without looking at Nian Xiaomu, he carried Xiao Liuliu in his arms and turned to go upstairs.
An uproar broke out in the living room.
Only Fang Zhenyi could not disguise the delight on her face.
“Yu Yuehan, don’t you regret it!” Nian Xiaomu hollered at the turned back of the man.
When she turned to face the conceited Fang Zhenyi, she narrowed her eyes, reached out to pick up a cup from the coffee table, and walked straight ahead.
“Wah—”
A full cup of water was mercilessly splashed onto her face.
“Ah! Nian Xiaomu, you’re insane!” Fang Zhenyi shrieked in horror. She had never expected Nian Xiaomu to actually splash water onto her in front of so many people.
The warm water messed up her makeup in an instant.
Accompanied by that howling and screeching, it was a pathetic sight that was unbearable to watch.
“This cup of water is what I return to you. You better not bump into me when you go out. Otherwise, I will throw water at you every single time I see you!” Nian Xiaomu slammed the cup in her hand onto the coffee table. She then turned to leave without a second look at the people in the living room.
The butler snapped out of his trance and said, “Nian Xiaomu, your salary for today…”
“No need for it! Keep it for your young master and get a doctor to fix his head!”
