The little girl tilted her head back, just as she finished licking her lollipop, and said, "Didn't Mom tell me to go and call my sister-in-law over?"

Tang Zhu was surprised and squatted down to ask her daughter, "When did I tell you that?"

She never told her daughter about it.

“It wasn’t my mom who said it, it was an aunt who told me. My mom told me to go find my sister-in-law.”

Which auntie?

The youngest daughter looked around and shook her head, saying, "Not here."

They had already finished eating; some had gone home, while others were still at the old house. Tang Zhu didn't know who it was for the time being, so she whispered something bad.

He stood up and said to Luo Huai, "I'm sorry, the child doesn't know any better. I'm fine. You should go inside quickly so no one sees you."

Especially, don't let the high and mighty Madam Xing see it.

The uncle also realized what had happened, his expression changed slightly, and he smiled and said to Luo Huai, "I'm sorry, my daughter is ignorant. We will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

Tang Zhu glanced at her husband, her expression slightly melancholy.

Her husband immediately put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her, saying, "It's okay, it's okay, so many years have passed."

"Hmm." Tang Zhu looked at Luo Huai apologetically.

Luo Huai did not retreat, but stood still and waved with a smile.

Anyone who's paying attention would have seen it long ago.

I saw her the moment she came out holding her uncle and aunt's daughter's hand.

As she waved, her aunt poked her head out of the car and kept gesturing for her to get in quickly. She then hurriedly sat back down and rolled up the car window.

Luo Huai turned and went inside, and unsurprisingly encountered Xing's mother and Pei Youyou.

Xing's mother spoke first: "You seem to have a good relationship with them."

Pei Youyou curled the corners of her lips: "He even came out to deliver it in person."

This time, the mother-in-law will definitely hate Luo Huai to death.

Thankfully, her mother called her last night to tell her a secret, telling her to stay away from Tang Zhu at all costs.

Tang Zhu and Xing's father used to be a couple, a serious relationship that everyone knew about.

They eventually broke up because of their unequal family backgrounds.

That's how she managed to win over her cousin, who was several years younger than Xing's father, Tang Zhu. He's the cousin they now call her "Uncle."

"My uncle and aunt are elders, and my aunt gave a congratulatory gift today. As a junior, it's only right that I come out to present it to them." Luo Huai's words were indeed impeccable, but those who dislike you will dislike you no matter what.

She was able to remain calm in the face of Xing's mother's dark expression.

She used to have to fawn over the Pei family while living under their roof, and now that she's gone, she'll have to fawn over them again. She might as well just beg for the rest of her life.

Luo Huai only smiled.

Xing's mother sneered again: "You show respect to outsiders, but you don't show any filial piety or respect to the elders in the family."

"Here she is." Xing Yanzhao's voice came from the front door; they had finally found her.

Upon hearing the voice, Xing's mother and Pei Youyou grabbed each other's hands, moved closer, and then simultaneously took a half-step back to the side.

As if startled.

I don't understand why Xing Yanzhao is here again!

Every time they said a few words about Luo Huai, Xing Yanzhao would appear.

It always startled them.

Xing's mother couldn't stand her own son any longer and scolded him, "Are you a dog? You come here just by smelling Luo Huai! Honestly!"

Pei Youyou swallowed hard, met Xing Yanzhao's sharp, hawk-like eyes, immediately looked away, and took her mother-in-law's hand, saying, "Let's go, let's go."

The two hurried inside.

Luo Huai thought to himself, "Brother Zhao really can exorcise evil spirits."

"Xing Yuru said you came looking for me, and you found your way here?" Xing Yanzhao walked towards her, holding the blue scarf and hand warmer that she had taken off before dinner.

Hand it over.

Luo Huai took the scarf, wrapped it around her neck, and, holding a hand warmer in her hand, recounted what had just happened.

Xing Yanzhao frowned: "There are no surveillance cameras installed in the old house."

"It's alright." Her mother-in-law didn't like her anyway.

Xing Yanzhao also felt that everything was fine, as Luo Huai and she wouldn't stay in this house forever.

……

The whole family is staying overnight at the old house today.

Xing's parents already had their own rooms, as did Xing Zhengyu, but Xing Yanzhao did not, so a guest room needed to be prepared.

The old man and woman went to bed early, and Xing's mother decided on the room arrangements.

Xing's mother said, "Clean the guest room for Yanzhao and Luo Huai. The bed in the guest room is a bit small, so we'll get a bigger one."

The biological son was staying in the guest room.

Luo Huai subconsciously looked at Xing Yanzhao, afraid that he was feeling bad.

Xing Yanzhao looked at her, acting as if nothing had happened.

Looking across at Xing Zhengyu and Pei Youyou, they were feeding each other fruit, looking very affectionate.

It's so disgusting.

Xing Yanzhao couldn't bear to watch.

Soon, the maid came over and said that the guest room had been cleaned.

Xing Yanzhao pulled Luo Huai to her feet and walked in the opposite direction. To everyone's astonishment, they pushed open the door to the room where Xing Zhengyu had previously stayed.

Pei Youyou suddenly stood up.

"Brother Zhengyu, they went to our room!"

Xing Zhengyu smiled and saw that his mother also looked displeased, so he quickly said, "It's okay, it should be the eldest brother's anyway. Youyou, it's fine for you to sleep in the guest room."

"How could Brother Zhengyu be alright? We're not guests!"

Luo Huai suddenly came out of the room, her body slightly stiff. She had been pushed out, and her gaze kept glancing at Xing Yanzhao beside her.

Xing Yanzhao leaned to one side, gesturing for her to speak.

Luo Huai pursed her lips and said, "We're not guests either. Does what you're saying mean that Mother-in-law treats us as guests? Whether someone is a host or not isn't up to them to decide whether or not they stay in a guest room."

Xing's mother's expression changed several times.

Pei Youyou's face turned ashen.

Luo Huai smiled gently: "Goodnight, Grandma."

After saying that, he immediately fled back to his room.

Xing Yanzhao closed the door behind her, crossed his arms, and watched her try to laugh but dared not, then chuckled softly.

Hearing him laugh, Luo Huai immediately stopped smiling and looked over.

"Why aren't you saying it the way I taught you?" Xing Yanzhao asked.

He had already guessed that Pei Youyou would be furious. When he heard the words "not a guest," he immediately decided to go out and ask, "If you're not a guest, then who is? Who's your dog here and you think you're the master?"

On second thought, it's better to teach someone how to fish than to give them a fish; I should teach Luo Huai how to fight back.

Civilized people, if they don't use their hands, at least use their mouths.

Luo Huai explained tactfully: "We can't start with high intensity right away."

Xing Yanzhao chuckled.

Also.

Luo Huai is still a young girl, not that rascal in the wilderness. It's already quite impressive that she was able to fight back.

"Are you happy?"

"Yes!" Luo Huai nodded involuntarily, "Enjoy life while you can."

Xing Yanzhao nodded and said, "It wasn't a waste of time teaching you."

There weren't many of Xing Zhengyu's belongings in the room; Xing Yanzhao had someone come and clean it all out, and the bed sheets and duvet covers were all replaced with new ones.

However, there was only one bed and two single sofas in the room.

We can only sleep together.

Luo Huai lay on his side, his body slightly curled up. Hearing footsteps approaching behind him, he immediately closed his eyes.

The blanket was pulled back, and a gust of cold wind blew in.

The blanket was quickly pulled back over her head, and there was no sound of her getting into bed behind her. Then footsteps started again and stopped at the window.

Luo Huai turned slightly and saw Xing Yanzhao standing by the window making a phone call. He said, "Thank you for coming over tomorrow."
