"Messing with me? Why me? Out of the four siblings, why choose me?" Ruan Tingyi sounded somewhat aggrieved.
"Because you’re the weakest, the most foolish." Wei Yubao spoke bluntly, seeing Ruan Tingyi pout, he added, "Because I care about you the most."
Ruan Tingyi was happy again.
Jiang Zhe turned his head silently. He suddenly thought that perhaps mom fell for Uncle Ruan because he’s easy to coax, a simpleton?
"Didn’t big brother say you and Angel get along well? Could you introduce mom? She wants to visit. Is there anything she’s particularly fond of?" Wei Yubao asked, "My current opponent this time, I don’t think I can handle them. I want to ask her for help."
"Mom, generally people like that probably desire nothing, treating money like dirt, everything returning to the true. This might be challenging, right?" Jiang Zhe interjected.
"No." Qi Feng, who was bringing out dishes, denied, "What you said might be the exact opposite."
"Oh? Big brother, tell us more." Wei Yubao turned to Qi Feng.
"I think Angel is someone who enjoys life. Whether it’s gourmet food or fancy clothes, she likes them. Also, I’ve seen the decorations in her room; they’re all genuine. You know, this massive ornament, I touched it—it’s gold. Also, there’s a fan hanging on the living room wall, sparkling. I looked at it, and it’s studded with various diamonds, real ones. The accessories she wears are often limited editions. Her clothes, I noticed, are all creations from several internationally renowned designers." Qi Feng spoke slowly, "Although some people indeed don’t care about these things, I believe Angel is not one to live a makeshift life. Her lifestyle is very exquisite and meticulous."
"Good, no wonder they’re the big brother." Wei Yubao applauded, "So let’s eat first. After eating, let’s go to my warehouse to pick something, then let’s have the chubby one contact Angel, ask when she’s free, and we’ll visit to show our appreciation."
"Wow, Lao Qi, your observation is quite detailed." Ruan Tingyi admitted defeat.
"Maybe in the family, you’re the only... careless one." Qi Feng glanced at Ruan Tingyi, initially wanting to quip about her being simple-minded, but wisely changed his tune in face of Wei Yubao’s warning look. Mom is the most authoritative person in the family.
"Let’s eat first." Muye’s father, Mu Hengzhi, was a charming middle-aged man, in his forties, yet appearing like he’s in his thirties, very amiable.
"Let’s eat." Wei Yubao also spoke.
The family began to eat quietly.
...
Gao Yuxin was currently distracted while eating with Jiang Cheng.
"What, still thinking about that thing?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"Huh? Yeah, I am. It’s too incredible." Gao Yuxin nodded, forcing a smile.
"Don’t overthink it. Although it seems unbelievable, anything is possible. I’ll find someone to inquire about Angel’s background. Don’t think about it, just eat." Jiang Cheng said.
Gao Yuxin nodded and continued eating. But only she knew she wasn’t thinking about Tianmiao’s matter. She was thinking about a person, Kong Shubai. She still remembers, at such a dangerous moment, Kong Shubai held her hand. In just two days of interacting with Kong Shubai, it felt like a long time. Every detail etched in her heart. Kong Shubai’s kindness and attentiveness, along with the last moment of holding hands, gradually dissipated the anger in her heart.
Gao Yuxin looked up at Jiang Cheng. She recalled what Kong Shubai said: in life, everyone takes wrong turns, but as long as one finds their way back, everything goes back on track.
Can she turn back?
