After being thoroughly rejected, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose and said with a bitter smile, "But, Auntie, just sitting here watching you all busy makes me feel a bit guilty! So let me help out, even if it's just sweeping the floor. That would lighten your load a bit, right?"
After saying this with a rueful smile, Hu Xiaobei heard Haruno Rei's response, "Xiaobei, don't think that way! You are our cash cow right now. Just sit there; do whatever you want to do, or else, should I pour you some water?"
"Pour water? Forget it, I'm not thirsty!"
Hu Xiaobei's mouth twitched slightly, and then he quickly shook his head.
Hu Xiaobei knew Haruno Rei was incredibly busy.
Asking her to pour water for him under such circumstances would really be too inconsiderate.
Faced with Hu Xiaobei's decisive refusal, Haruno Rei pouted slightly and said, "What's wrong? Xiaobei, are you worried your aunt is going to poison you?"
