Tang Li didn’t stay in bed for too long.
The set of loungewear was folded neatly on the bedside table.
As for who folded it, it was self-explanatory.
Stepping into the bathroom, Tang Li also saw herself in the mirror. Her dium-length hair had the laziness of just waking up, still the sa look, but she knew her mindset had changed.
Everything about the Lai Family seed to be drifting away from her day by day.
By the ti she finished washing up, it was almost ten o’clock.
At this ti, Song Baiyan was naturally in the downstairs office area.
Tang Li stayed in the bedroom for a while longer, peeled a red egg to eat. Since Xiao Minglan was here, as the daughter-in-law, it didn’t make sense to stay in the room and wait for her mother-in-law to send soone to call her for lunch. So she tidied up the bedroom a bit, changed her clothes, and went to the living room.
In the living room, Song Jingtian was standing on the sofa watching TV.
"What are you watching?" Tang Li asked.
The little guy pursed his lips, glanced at her, and continued watching his "One Piece."
Tang Li wasn’t interested in a cartoon with over 800 episodes. She was about to go to the kitchen to have a look when she noticed a dish on the small round table by the sofa. The dish contained sothing she was familiar with.
"Did you take this Blessed Rice from the fridge?"
Last night, she mixed so Blessed Rice and left half of it in the kitchen.
Even when caught sneaking food, Song Jingtian remained unflustered: "Tiger Whip was hungry, so I took it to feed him."
Seeing the tea leaf on the corner of his mouth, Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief: "You scared . Good thing it wasn’t you who ate it."
The little guy perked up his ears and couldn’t help but turn to look at her.
"I once heard from the elders in the village that if an unmarried young man eats Blessed Rice made by soone else’s bride, he’ll be a bachelor for life."
Song Jingtian: "..."
"But, you know, these are all superstitions," Tang Li said as she took a strawberry from the coffee table, "Besides, Tiger Whip is already neutered, so whether he finds a mate or not doesn’t matter."
"Who said it doesn’t matter?" the little guy retorted.
Saying this, he directly took the bowl of strawberries and refused to share any with her.
Tang Li was only teasing the little guy and didn’t an to really scare him, "There’s also a way to break the curse."
Song Jingtian imdiately asked, "What way?"
"It seems you just need to drink a bowl of soy sauce soup to break it."
The little guy snorted, seemingly unconvinced.
At this mont, Aunt Min appeared at the living room door, smiled at Tang Li, and said, "Since everyone’s here, I don’t have to go to the master bedroom."
In the dining room, Xiao Minglan was setting the table with the staff.
In these dostic matters, Xiao Minglan always preferred to do things herself.
Seeing others carrying dishes or arranging chairs, Tang Li went with Aunt Min to the small kitchen next door to help. She took towels from the sterilizer, folded them one by one, and placed them on a tray.
"Not ready yet?" a familiar magnetic voice ca from the small kitchen door.
Tang Li glanced sideways and indeed saw Song Baiyan.
The next second, she turned back, and Aunt Min had already replied, "Almost. Do you need hot water?"
After speaking, Aunt Min took a kettle and went out.
Tang Li vaguely heard footsteps, but this ti she didn’t look back.
Soon, a white porcelain cup was placed by her hand.
Seeing the man’s watch-wearing left hand, she couldn’t help recalling last night.
It wasn’t the first ti, yet it was far more embarrassing than the night at Yunqi Villa.
So details beca increasingly vivid.
The towels were folded, and Tang Li picked up the tray, deliberately avoiding looking at the man behind her. As she turned, her arm brushed against Song Baiyan’s shirt, but she kept moving, shouting ’make way’ as she walked out. Her usual indifferent behavior was betrayed only by her flushed red ears.
