"Hasn't Auntie thought about going home?"
"Go home? Auntie hasn't had a home for a long time."
Ginger wore a gentle smile.
"Even if they are still alive, they probably won't recognize me as their daughter. If you feel sorry for me, just take good care of Tulip for me. If you ever stop liking her, just leave her a child and give her enough money for her retirement so she can live out her life in peace."
"After that, it will be up to the grandson or granddaughter to take care of things themselves."
"If I had never appeared, would you have let Tulip marry a rich man or a hardworking commoner?"
Yuan Hua was somewhat curious.
"That depends on the situation."
Ginger hugged her thighs with both arms.
"If you had never appeared, I would have preferred Tulip to marry a commoner. After all, it's not easy to marry into a wealthy family, and the rich people outside don't have your good temper."
"That's too kind of you."
Yuan Hua shook his head slightly; he didn't consider himself a good person.
“I’ve never been a good person, but I’m quite possessive, so I wouldn’t let her suffer.”
"Hmph~ At least you're the only rich person I've ever met who treats people like human beings."
Jin Jisi's feelings towards Yuan Hua were getting better and better.
In such a feudal era, saying the words "equality for all" would be laughable, and one would be thrown into prison and then be beheaded the next day on charges of treason.
"Oh, by the way, can I take a look?"
Ginger's gaze drifted downwards...
"It was too dark last night, I couldn't see clearly, but I'm a little curious."
"This...is not good..."
Yuan Hua's toes had started digging into the floor...
"What are you afraid of? It's just one look. Are you worried I'll eat you up?"
Ginger smiled knowingly...
"Uh... okay... just one glance..."
Yuan Hua stood up, hands on his hips...
"Gulu..."
Jinjisi swallowed hard, her slender fingers gripping Yuan Hua's belt...
"Just...just one look..."
"Um……"
Yuan Hua also tensed up. Because of the top-down perspective, he vaguely saw two streaks of crimson...
Bang!
As the seal was broken, Baron Nash sprang out and struck Ginger's forehead hard, knocking her unconscious immediately...
Yuan Hua: Huh? ???
Chapter 74 Tulips: Boiling Sheep, can't you be as magnanimous as Yuan Hua?
"Auntie? Are you alright?"
Well, you can tell something's wrong just by looking at the mark that went straight through the top of her head.
"Never mind, you should get some rest."
After Yuan Hua covered Jin Jisi with the blanket, he drew the curtains and left the room.
……
Did my mom say anything?
Tulip, arm in arm with Yuan Hua, lay down on the beanbag chair. Sunlight streamed through the dense foliage outside the window, filling the small room with dappled light...
"She said she wanted to hold her grandson."
Yuan Hua pinched Tulip's little nose.
"I hate it~"
Tulip threw a tantrum, acting all cute and spoiled...
"I'm not lying."
Just as Yuan Hua was about to continue his teasing, there was a knock on the door.
"Tulip! Are you inside?"
dong dong dong ——
"Looking for you?"
Yuan Hua glanced back.
"I could tell it was York just by the sound."
Tulip shrugged.
"I don't know how he found this place."
"Perhaps someone saw it. Go open the door."
Yuan Hua closed his eyes, somewhat disappointed.
……
"How did you come?"
As soon as Tulip opened the door, she saw a large bouquet of roses. Tulip didn't even need to think about who was standing behind the bouquet.
"I heard your house is about to be renovated. I've come to congratulate you."
York's flimsy reason left Tulip speechless.
If you want to see me, just say so. Why bring up renovations? It's already annoying enough that I can't find any workers, seeing you will only make it worse.
"Boiling Sheep... oh no, York, I'm currently staying at my friend's house with my mother. Unless it's something important, please don't bother me. After all, this isn't my home, so it's not convenient."
Tulip was already quite annoyed by this persistent pest. If it weren't for the fact that an engagement can't be dissolved so easily, she would have already thrown the gold coins in his face and sent him far away.
Some countries prohibit divorce, or rather, prohibit women from divorcing.
In other words, the initiative to divorce was not in Tulip's hands, which is why Tulip did not file for divorce for a long time after she became rich. She wanted to use emotional abuse to make York take the initiative to dissolve the engagement.
"Why is it inconvenient? I'm your fiancé, isn't it perfectly normal for me to come see you?"
York placed the roses he was holding into the tulip's arms.
"Here, keep it safe."
"Why are you sending flowers again? I don't like flowers."
Tulip frowned. Couldn't this person think of any other gift besides flowers?
"Oh? Then I'll choose a different kind next time."
York scratched his head.
"Hey Tulip, I rented a little cabin in the village. How about you move in and live with me?"
"Live with you?"
Tulip looked up at York.
"Forget it, you should just live by yourself. I'm doing fine at my friend's place, and I'm too lazy to move around. Besides, my mom is here too. I'll have to move back after the tailor shop is renovated, which is too much trouble."
"Actually, it's not that troublesome. Think about it, most people move in together right after getting engaged, but we've been dragging this on for so long. That's why I'm starting to get a little anxious..."
York was somewhat at a loss, having almost forgotten the words he had prepared beforehand.
“If you’re in such a hurry, go find someone else to live with. I don’t have the patience to move again. I finally managed to move all my things over yesterday, and now you want me to move them all over again. If you had come earlier, I might have been able to ‘think about it’.”
Tulip's mind is now filled with thoughts of how to get rid of this clingy simp.
"No, this is, after all, another boy's home. It's not really appropriate."
York was a little embarrassed; it turned out he was late...
"How do you know it's a boy? And what do you mean by 'other boys'? That's my best friend, my male best friend."
Tulip learned the term "male best friend" from Yuan Hua. It perfectly describes their current situation and is easy to understand. They can do anything except for being in a romantic relationship.
Tulip glanced back and saw Yuan Hua pouring water in the living room.
"Yuan Hua, my fiancé is looking for you."
Yuan Hua's body trembled. He realized he couldn't escape. "Where's Panda? Where did Panda go to play? It can't even guard the house. What's the use of keeping you? You just eat and sleep, and after you've had your fill of sleep, you go for a walk."
Bears live more comfortably than people.
"Hello, I'm Tulip's male best friend."
Yuan Hua put his hand on Tulip's shoulder, and York's eyes widened in surprise...
"You...you...you...how could you put your hand on Tulip's shoulder?!"
York stamped his feet in frustration.
"No, why are you in such a hurry?"
Tulip blocked Yuan Hua behind her.
"When you go out with your brother, don't you also put your arm around his shoulder? This is my best friend, my best friend, do you understand? Can't you be more magnanimous? We are just friends. People with dirty hearts think dirty things. He just put his hand on my shoulder and you start to get angry."
"I've never seen such a petty man as you."
Tulip looked at York with disdain, her brows furrowed...
"No, I'm sorry, I was too loud. I hope you don't take it to heart."
