Much later, Erbao was already in her cartoonish pajamas and was laying down when someone knocked on the door.

“Please come in,” Erbao called out in a long, draggy voice, imitating Ning Ran’s usual tone.

Dabao came in with a tablet in his hand.

“Dabao, what’s the matter?” asked Erbao as she got up.

“Look at this!”

Dabao passed the tablet in his hand to Erbao as she peered to take a look. On the screen was the photo of them together with Ouyang Qing.

There were words accompanyqing the photo. Yet Erbao found it hard to read because firstly, she could not understand, and secondly, she found it troublesome to do so.

Therefore the easiest solution was to ask her brother. “What’s going on?”

“Miss Qing posted the photos of us eating and playing together and shared them among her circle of friends. Somehow the photos were picked up by the media and were reposted online. Now they’re being circulated publicly,” Dabao briefly explained.

“I feel it’s okay. After all, those photos are taken really well. I look pretty, and you look handsome.” Erbao nonchalantly pointed out.

“Even right as we speak, there is a rumor circulating that Ouyang Qing is going to marry Daddy.” Revealing the rumor, Dabao emphasized, “Right now those photos have become the evidence that Ouyang Qing is going to be our stepmother. These things are happening right under our noses!”

Dabao used to call her “Miss Qing”. However, the way he addressed her had changed, as she was now referred to as mere Ouyang Qing.

When Erbao heard the revelation, her expression immediately changed.

“What? She wants to marry Daddy? What about Mommy then?”

“That woman. She does all these on purpose,” Dabao clenched his teeth as he spoke accusingly.

“But why? Why would she do all these?” Erbao still had a hard time comprehending the whole situation.
