"Little girl, you should pay more attention to your study." Hanson pretended to be angry and squinted at her.
"I am worried about you. Robert's 'attack' is very fierce. My aunt may not be able to withstand it." Mili frowned.
"Little girl, love can't be forced. If he likes her, he would have accepted her long ago. Why does he have to wait so long?" Poppy said.
"Auntie Poppy, don't make trouble. I just want daddy Hanson to propose to Auntie Ivy and marry her as soon as possible." Mili glared at her.
Poppy sneered. She could tell at a glance that Hanson hadn't accepted Ivy at all. Mili was just talking nonsense.
Hearing what Poppy said, Ivy felt very uncomfortable. Since Hanson kept silent, she felt even more uncomfortable.
"Robert is a good man. He was nice to me when I was in America," she said angrily.
A hint of gloom flashed across Hanson's deep eyes. He suddenly held her hand and asked, "Is it better than me?"
Ivy trembled, and a current instantly passed through her body. "No... No." She shook her head like a rattle drum. She loved Hanson so much. Any response from him would make her excited and cheered.
A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Hanson's charming mouth. He held her hand and said, "From now on, keep away from other men."
"Okay." Ivy nodded her head wildly. Her heart had been put on the wings of an angel and flew into the sky, to the clouds, to the hot sun.
Sitting next to them, Mili giggled and covered her mouth. She knew that if she encouraged her daddy Hanson with a whip, he would take actions, not as indifferent and careless as before.
Poppy was unhappy to see this. There seemed to be some feelings between Hanson and Ivy. It was estimated that Hanson was trying to win over Ivy. After all, she was the daughter of the Rong family, and Hanson would definitely not want to go against the Rong family.
"Mr. Xia, your relationship is getting more and more complicated," she said jokingly.
"It's my privacy. I don't need others to know it," Hanson said slowly.
"That's right. Is it necessary to let everyone know that my daddy Hanson is in love? My daddy Hanson is a low-key person. He doesn't like to show off their love in a high-profile way," said Mili.
Poppy pouted. It didn't matter even if they were in love. As long as they were not married, everyone had the right to pursue.
She took out her iPad from her bag and said, "Mr. Xia, let's talk about the cooperation plan of the fashion business city in A City first."
"Okay." Hanson nodded and invited her to sit down at the round table at the bow.
Ivy and Mili were sitting behind her. She couldn't get involved in business.
"Auntie Ivy, don't worry. My daddy Hanson won't like this Poppy. She is not my daddy Hanson's type." Mili reached out her little hand and patted her on the shoulder.
"Okay." Ivy nodded with a slight flush on her face. She was still immersed in the temporary tenderness of Hanson.
"Auntie, from now on, you have to provoke daddy Hanson from time to time and release his passion, so that he won't be indifferent to you," Mili said in a serious tone.
Ivy smiled and touched her head, "Little elf, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. When you grow up, you will definitely be extraordinary. I don't know how many handsome men will fall in love with you."
"My daddy and Mommy often play games to stimulate each other and strengthen their relationship, so I have heard and seen it." Mili giggled.
"It seems that I have to learn more from your mommy," said Ivy.
The nanny went to the cabin and brought washed fruits and desserts.
Mili peeled a kiwi fruit and ate it. She liked eating fruit most and ate at least five kinds of fruit every day.
Leaning against the lounge chair, Ivy was a little sleepy. She decided to have a rest and wait for them to finish their conversation.
In the Rong Mansion, when Irene was about to go out, she was stopped by Essie.
"Irene, there were so many young talents at the ball last time. Didn't you like any of them?"
"I think Mr. Alfred is a good man. I have a good talk with him," Irene said on purpose.
Hearing that, Essie was shocked. She couldn't believe that Irene did not choose one among so many normal men but Alfred, who was gay.
"Irene, Alfred is a gay."
"Sister in law, you're thinking too much. I'm just friends with Mr. Alfred. Whether he is straight or gay has nothing to do with me," Irene shrugged and said indifferently.
Essie sighed. After all, Irene was a French. French people didn't care much about sexual orientation, and she couldn't treat her as a Chinese.
"It's okay to be friends. Your brother and I are also friends with Mr. Alfred," Essie said with a faint smile.
"I know. I heard from Mr. Alfred that you are on good terms and often go to his parties," Irene said with a smile.
