You Are My Starlight

Run Away From Home (Part 4)

But she couldn’t say for sure, given the boss’s character.

He wouldn’t chase Su Mianmian away, but he would personally send her home.

The boss would definitely say things like he couldn’t keep underaged girls overnight etc...

Sigh. Su Mianmian actually hadn’t thought of what to do.

She was definitely not going home.

Why would she want to go home? Since she already knew that she was going to be sold by her family, would she still want to go back and help them count money?

Seeing Su Mianmian not talking, Dongdong pulled her hand and asked, “Do you want to come and play at my house?”

The idea stayed in her mind for a second before Su Mianmian shook her head and rejected it.

“Huh? That wouldn’t be nice.” It seemed a little imposing to go the house of a new friend whom she hadn’t known for long.

“There’s nothing wrong. There’s only Little Fire and me in the house. My father has gone on a business trip and I don’t know when he’ll be back.”

“Well…”

“Miemie, are we not friends? You can’t reject a friend’s invitation, that would be disloyal to friends.” Dongdong pestered Su Mianmian.

“All right then.” She would just go take a look, since she had no place to go anyway. Moreover, it was still early, and she could leave if it wasn’t convenient.

...

Su Mianmian stood at the entrance of the villa and was totally shocked!

The floor area was a few thousand square feet, and standing on both sides of the entrance were servants in neat uniforms.

After seeing Dongdong, they took a ninety-degree bow and said loudly.

“Welcome back, little young master.”

What does Dongdong’s family do? They don’t look like just normal mass affluent.

“Dongdong…” Su Mianmian pulled at Dongdong and said, “I suddenly remember…”

“That you have something to do? Miemie, this excuse is too cliche.” Dongdong held Su Mianmian’s hand and said, “Come on, you’re already here, just go in and play for a while.”

And then Su Mianmian was pulled into the house by Dongdong.

Perhaps because Su Mianmian wasn’t used to having many people around, the servants left after putting some snacks on the table.

Dongdong sat on the chair, happily eating cake while he said, “Sure enough, strawberry cake is still the best.”

Seeing him gobble up one in a few bites and dirtying his mouth, Su Mianmian took out a tissue and helped him wipe his mouth.

“Miemie, come have some too.” Dongdong comfortably used his hair to rub Su Mianmian’s hand.

Su Mianmian was delighted at once seeing him behave like a small animal.

“Why do you behave like Little Fire?”

“Little Fire learned it from me.” Dongdong said proudly, “Oh, I”ll bring Little Fire over.”

With this, Dongdong jumped down from the chair and ran out.

Su Mianmian looked a little helplessly at the room in which she was alone.

After a while, a man around fifty years old walked in. After seeing Su Mianmian, he asked politely, “Hello miss, how should I address you?”

Su Mianmian looked up and guess from his outfit that he was the housekeeper.

“My name is Su Mianmian.”

“Hello Miss Su, this is the first time little young master brought a friend back.” The housekeeper said with a smile. “We are already preparing dinner. May I know if you have any dietary restrictions?”

Su Mianmian shook her head a little embarrassed and said, “I’m fine with anything.”

The housekeeper looked at the cake in front of her and said, “Is the cake not to your liking, Miss Su? We have cakes of other flavors.”

“Erm, I’m just not hungry, not that the cake is not to my liking.”

The housekeeper smiled. “All right, I’ll get someone to come in and add some tea for you, Miss Su.”

Su Mianmian rarely had people show concern toward her, and was suddenly at a loss. Fortunately, Dongdong came in at this moment.

“Grandpa Housekeeper, I want chicken wings in Coca Cola tonight.”

“All right, little young master. Play with your friend first, I will get the kitchen to prepare.” The housekeeper left after he finished speaking.

“Baa…” Little Fire who was in Dongdong’s arms looked up at Su Mianmian with a cute face.

Su Mianmian’s heart melted at once, and she reached out to touch Little Fire’s head.

It was nice to touch something so furry.

Little Fire stuck out its tongue and licked her hand. It felt a little itchy.

“Miemie, let’s play with Little Fire.” Dongdong suggested.

“How?”

Dongdong stood up, threw some grass that he had gotten out of nowhere, and said loudly, “Little Fire, run like lightning!”

“Baa!” Little Fire ran off wildly with its short legs. Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om

“...” Isn’t this like playing fetch with a dog?

So you can also play fetch with a lamb?
