Guan Tang smiled. “Sister, why do you always refuse to face the truth? How could Aunty and Uncle not know? The most important thing now is to get Cheng Che to return.”
Yin Jia looked at Guan Tang, who was smiling brightly, not knowing what to say. She really could not believe that Guan Tang was someone without desires. How could Guan Tang be like an angel like others like to say? However, she really could not find any flaws on Guan Tang.
Guan Tang looked at Yin Jia with a hint of anticipation as she asked, “Do you want to visit my new house?”
Yin Jia adjusted her expression and said, “Alright. Is there anything you need in your new house? We can buy them on the way. I’ll help you decorate your house.”
Guan Tang smiled sweetly. “Sure!”
Yin Yi had just returned at this time and clamored to go with them.
In the end, the trio left to visit Guan Tang’s house.
…
After the trio arrived at Guan Tang’s house and put away the things they bought, Guan Tang began to wash the ingredients for the hotpot they were going to have.
Since Yin Jia and Yin Yi were not good at these things, they were of no help to Guan Tang.
Guan Tang quickly prepped the ingredients as she chatted with the two sisters.
Yin Yin looked at the house and said emotionally, “Although this place is a little small, it’s very peaceful. Cousin, I really want to move in with you so my mother won’t nag me all day.”
Guan Tang said softly as she worked, “Don’t be ignorant of your good fortune. Aunty is doing it for your good. It’s a blessing to have a mother nagging at you.”
Yin Yi stuck out her tongue. She said, unconvinced, “My mother is good to you too! She treats both of you like biological daughters. However, she treats both of you better than she does me!”
Guan Tang and Yin Jia exchanged a quick look before they looked away.
At this moment, Yin Jia suddenly said, “Guan Tang, this house seems a little strange.”
Guan Tang’s eyes followed Yin Jia’s gaze and landed on a long stretch of wall. Then, she said, “That’s right. It’s because the layout of the house isn’t very good so I managed to buy it at a cheap price. Even if I don’t live here in the future, I can still rent it out. After all, young people nowadays don’t pay attention to this kind of detail.”
Yin Jia nodded. “You’re right. In the future, let me know if you see any paintings you like. I’ll buy them for you so you can hang them on the wall. It won’t look so bland that way.”
Guan Tang said, “It’s fine. I plan to buy a projector and use the wall as the screen.”
Yin Yi said instantly, “That’s a great idea!”
After a while, Guan Tang brought the dishes out and placed them on the dining table. Then, she brought out the hot pot that had been filled with soup. In just a moment, water vapor hung in the air, giving the house a warm feeling.
Guan Tang glanced at the long wall as she said with a smile, “You must be hungry. Let’s eat.”
When the two sisters were not looking earlier, Guan Tang had already packed a container of meatballs. She said to the two sisters, “Both of you can start eating first, I’m going to the bathroom.”
When Guan Tang entered the bathroom, she opened the door of a closet in the bathroom that led to a secret room.
Jiahui sat on the chair, looking outside. The wall was in fact a one-way glass. Not only could she see everything, but she could also hear everything. No matter how hard she tried, no one could hear her.
Guan Tang placed the food container by the door and looked outside. Then, she asked calmly, “Are you hungry? Have something simple for now. After they leave, I’ll give you more.”
Without waiting for Jiahui’s reply, Guan Tang left.
…
Yin Yi put the slices of meat into the hot pot enthusiastically. Among the trio, she was the most comfortable and carefree. She did not care about the image a young miss from a wealthy family should have. She was not like Yin Jia and Guan Tang who were trained to be elegant at all times.
Guan Tang took a sip of water from her glass before she said casually, “Now that I’ve left the Yin family, I believe Cheng Che will return to the family soon. The dust has finally settled.”
“I really don’t understand what’s wrong with Elder Brother? Sister, why don’t you persuade him again? If it doesn’t work, then just let him marry that doctor. He has to come back quickly so Second Brother can be released,” Yin Yi said to Yin Jia with a hint of pleading as she ate.
