Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots

If she hadn’t mentioned it, Xu He would have forgotten about the bruise on her arm.

She looked down at the small, hand-ground ointment in her hand.

Others might find it odd, but she did not.

That’s because her Little Tiangao had always liked tinkering with such things since childhood.

Who could imagine a child of merely three years old, with soft, white little hands that could barely open wide, covered in the juice of herbs, seriously and carefully tinkering with them?

It was incredibly cute.

In her memories, Little Tiangao had made her remedies for back pain and also for her husband’s toothache.

How could a child truly know how to make medicine, but it was this filial heart that touched her and her husband deeply.

Moreover, it turned out that mood really does have a great effect on pain.

Using the “medicinal ointment” made with Little Tiangao’s good intentions, their pains healed quite quickly.

Recalling the past, Xu He became visibly moved, “That reminds me, I heard that mother fainted yesterday, and it was you who revived her?”

Xia Ye nodded, “The bruise was caused when I was pressing on an acupoint.”

Xu He pursed her lips and pulled her into her arms, “Silly child, it’s okay, mom knows you had good intentions, you were just anxious to wake mom up quickly.”

Xia Ye, hearing her comforting tone, knew she had misunderstood, “No, you don’t understand, I was really trying to save you…”

But Xu He didn’t let her finish, hugging her more tightly, “How could mom not understand?

If you blame yourself over this again, mom will really be angry!”

Xia Ye was squeezed almost to the point of suffocation: …

Blame myself my ass?

I was seriously trying to save you!

Xia Xing shared the news about calling off the marriage with the Jiang Family in the group chat.

Xia Secretary (eldest brother): Perfect.

Enviable Sir (third brother): It’s good that the kid knows better, saves me from having to step in personally.

It seemed to be the popular sentiment.

When they were younger, their father might have considered using marriage to secure the Xia Family’s position.

But now, with the three of their abilities…

Does the Xia Family still need to sacrifice Little Tiangao’s happiness for some marriage alliance?

Laughable.

FB Team Xia Xing: Eldest brother, third brother, when are you guys coming back?

I’m not in a rush, it’s good for Little Tiangao and me to spend time together and build our relationship~

Xia Secretary: Tomorrow.

Enviable Sir: Tomorrow morning.

Xia Xing squinted at these two responses and felt a sense of crisis.

They could arrive as soon as tomorrow?

Then he needed to make the most of today.

Deciding this, he twirled his phone skillfully in his hand, turned off the screen, slid it into his pocket, and got up with flair.

Next to the bar in the dining room, Xia Ye’s fair fingertips reached toward the entire row of fine wines cherished by Xia Yuzheng—

“Little sister!”

The voice of Xia Xing, full of mirth, came from behind her.

Xia Ye’s fingers paused, then, without a change in expression, moved away and picked up a bottle of cool boiled water, pouring herself a cup.

She turned around in response, to see a gleaming golden card in front of her.

“Pocket money from your second brother, no PIN needed.”

Xia Xing had won many honors for the team over the years, and his super popularity had also led to constant advertising endorsements.

Not even Xia Xing knew how much money was on this card, since clients kept making deposits into it every day.

But even with such a card, Xia Ye only glanced at it with an unchanged expression, showing no sign of excitement, “Keep it for yourself, I have money.”

“You have?” Xia Xing was taken aback, but soon he wore a look of sudden realization, “From mom, right?

You little thing, even complaining there’s too much pocket money?

Take it, ask for more from your brother if it’s not enough.”
