After lunch, Tang Yucheng confirmed that An Xiaotu was emotionally fine before sending her back to the An family.
As soon as the two stepped out of the elevator, they came face to face with an elderly man in a suit, his hair white as snow, leaning on a cane. The old man's face was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere; though his body seemed quite strong and sturdy, he exuded an aura of indomitable spirit that was undeniably imposing.
A middle-aged man, nearly fifty years old, was standing beside him with a respectful and solemn expression.
An Xiaotu was a little surprised. She didn't expect such a wealthy-looking person to appear in this ordinary, old residential area.
However, she didn't pay too much attention, just feeling that the other party should be waiting for the elevator, so she pulled Tang Yucheng and hurried out of the elevator.
In that fleeting moment of passing, Tang Yucheng and the old man exchanged glances. The former's brow furrowed slightly, while the latter's eyes grew colder.
The old man and the middle-aged man stepped into the elevator one after another. After the elevator door closed.
The middle-aged man, Lao Chen, was a bit puzzled. “Old man, why didn’t you take this opportunity to reconcile with the second Miss Maybe it could have led to…”
"It's not the right time yet, I have my own plans." The old man snorted coldly, seemingly still angry about what had happened recently.
Thinking of that man as An Xiaotu's husband, he clenched his walking stick, a few strands of coldness flashing in his eyes.
……
An Xiaotu brought Tang Yucheng back to the An family. Seeing a fruit platter and several teacups that hadn't been put away in the living room, she asked curiously, "Mom, did we have guests"
An Mu was slightly stunned, her face paling a bit. She clearly hadn't expected An Xiaotu to return at this time.
Before she could answer, An's father smiled faintly on behalf of his wife and said, “They are some old colleagues from my previous company, here for a get-together and a chat.”
"Yu Cheng, come, sit down quickly, I'll go brew a pot of tea. Have you eaten" Mother An came back to her senses and hurriedly gestured for her son-in-law to sit down.
Although my daughter didn't come home all night, seeing that she was with her husband, I didn't ask any further questions out of respect.
An Xiaotu felt that since her marriage, her position in the family had plummeted. She feigned disappointment, "Mom, I feel like you've become biased. Why didn't you ask me if I'd eaten"
"Go, go, go. A daughter who marries is like water spilled; with a son-in-law, you gain half a son. How can you compare" An mother intentionally struck her down, but there was a helpless and indulgent smile on her lips.
At this age, you're still shamelessly vying for attention.
"You hurt me and just laughed it off." An Xiaotu let out a soft whine, grabbing the sliced fruit on the table with her bare hands and eating it.
“Mom, Xiao Tu and I have already eaten dinner outside. I'm sending Xiao Tu back now, let’s have some tea and then I’ll leave.” Tang Yucheng sat upright on the sofa, his back straight, hands resting on his knees. Seeing that An's mother had already started making tea, he didn't want to refuse her kindness by leaving immediately.
"Good," An's mother nodded repeatedly, "There is fruit on the table, help yourself. We are all family, so there's no need to be polite."
"Mm," he replied faintly.
"Here." An Xiaotu held a piece of fruit to his lips.
An mother saw the interaction between the two in her eyes, she just smiled, feeling a little comforted in her heart.
What is more important than a daughter's happiness
Tang Yucheng stayed in the An residence for a while before leaving, and An Xiaotu, who had been tossed about all night, returned to her room for a nap.
Just as she lay down, she remembered Tang Yucheng's warning when he had dinner at the restaurant. She hurriedly rummaged through the drawer and took out the ring, placing it on her ring finger.
Her phone suddenly rang, and she picked it up to see — An Pingtong's name.
Thinking about how last night she was the one who went to deliver tissues to An Pingtong, and that's when that happened...
"Hey, Xiaotu, are you okay I heard about what happened last night; I'm so sorry. If it weren't for me asking you to get tissues from the bathroom last night, none of this would have happened…" On the other end of the phone, An Pingtong sobbed, her voice filled with remorse and guilt.
She had only wanted to test her luck, but she didn't expect that the man who drugged her would really follow An Xiaotu. He was so close... But unexpectedly, Tang Moqing appeared at the critical moment and saved An Xiaotu.
At that time, An Xiaotu was drugged, the effect of the drug had already taken hold, and Tang Moqing, who had always been suave and romantic at night, the two...
Thinking of these things, An Pingtong felt so jealous that her eyes turned red.
An Xiaotu didn't know that Tang Mo had already sealed the news at that time, so she didn't suspect at all how An Pingtong knew about it.
Hearing An Pingting's anxious and apologetic tone, a warmth spread through her heart. Since last night's incident, An Pingting was the first person to call and check on her.
"Thank you, Teacher Tingting, for your concern. I'm fine." She smiled and said.
Thinking of someone's ferocity last night, her porcelain-white face flushed. Although it happened under the influence of drugs, this time Tang Yucheng...
An Pintang heard a hint of happiness in her tone, and her heart sank. Her face turned cold.
Tang Moqing is who The heir to the first wealthy family in R country, even though he is charming and loves many women, he is still a man that countless women in Beisi City flock to.
Under those circumstances last night, the two of them must have...
The feeling made her instantly feel like she had swallowed a fly.
Taking a deep breath, An Pingting forced a smile and said in a gentle voice, "Since you're fine, I'm relieved. I have nothing else to do, so I'll hang up now."
"Mhm, goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, An Xiaotu rubbed her sore and soft waist. She slept until evening, as night fell.
Still being shaken violently, she was woken by a voice full of anger.
"An Xiaotu, why aren't you waking up for this young lady yet!!!" Xiao Yabai grabbed An Xiaotu's shoulders with her two fair and pretty paws, shaking them vigorously and shouting in a commanding tone.
An Xiaotu subconsciously covered her ears, her sleepy eyes slowly opening.
"Ya Bai, you're back" she rubbed her eyes, looking at her angry face, "What happened Who upset you again."
No one would have guessed that popular actress Xiao Yabai and An Xiaotu, her college internship teacher, were best friends.
"If I don't come back, you little wretch will be sneaking around and giving birth to a child behind my back." Xiao Ya Bai never expected that her best friend, who had vowed not to marry before the age of 28 while she was abroad shooting an advertisement, would ...
He actually got married.
She even went out of her way to bring back souvenirs for her from abroad, but this heartless wretch secretly eloped with someone else.
An's mother said that she and the man had been in love for five months and got married. An, based on her understanding of the situation, could only say two words: Bull**!
She could fool others, but she couldn't fool herself.
An Xiaotu's clear and innocent eyes flashed a trace of guilt. She squeezed out a stiff smile and then hugged Xiao Yabai with both hands.
"Hee hee hee... I wasn't trying to hide it from you. Weren't you overseas before I wanted to wait for you to come back and tell you, but I didn't expect Miss Xiao to be so well-informed." She said, her little head rubbing against her affectionately.noon. 。And Sima Tian said that this was a memorial day, she didn't know how to refuse. 。Just as Tang Mo was about to make an appointment for lunch with Sima Tian, Tang Moqing appeared at the right ti...
