Indeed, after that, Tang Huai Zhang had beco much more lenient with her.
Thinking back, Tang Wu concluded that playing the pity card really was the most effective strategy.
A rush of mories ca flooding back, and Jian Yun’s smile gradually turned bitter.
Ye Tiao noticed Jian Yun’s smile and quickly, with wit, changed the subject. Glancing at the wound she was bandaging, her face lit up with surprise, "You know what? The bandaging actually looks pretty nice!"
Just as Jian Yun was about to say sothing, the phone beside her rang.
Checking it, she saw that familiar string of numbers.
Jian Yun wiped her hands and answered the phone, "Hello, hubby."
"Hmm," Tang Huai Zhang’s voice sounded a bit weary, "I accidentally fell asleep and am almost ho now. Are you at ho?"
"No," Jian Yun slowed her voice, "Tired? Have you eaten?"
"Not hungry," Tang Huai Zhang responded succinctly, "Are you still at school? I’ll co pick you up."
"No need, I’m over at Building 2, rember the Senior Sister I ntioned to you?" Jian Yun’s eyes sparkled with anticipation, "It’s that Senior Sister who sings very well; mom has been talking about her non-stop. Last ti, she even played the lute at Aunt Shen’s birthday celebration."
Upon hearing ’Senior Sister’, Tang Huai Zhang’s brow furrowed slightly.
He had certainly heard of her.
He had listened to his mother talk about her at ho, and his wife would join in as well; yet Tang Huai Zhang did not hold a favorable impression of this girl he had never t.
His daughter was irreplaceable, and no matter how outstanding she might be, she wouldn’t be Tang Wu.
So whenever his mother and wife enthusiastically discussed Senior Sister, Tang Huai Zhang felt nothing but impatience.
Now, hearing the excited voice of his wife on the phone, he did not want to dampen her spirits, "I rember."
Jian Yun was delighted, "I’m at her place now. Hubby, co over. Let’s have a al together, I’ll ask Shi Lingyan to pick you up."
"Shi Lingyan?" Tang Huai Zhang asked, a bit surprised, "Ling Yan?"
"Yes," Jian Yun’s voice was filled with deeper amusent, "Shi Lingyan. Where are you now?"
Tang Huai Zhang didn’t respond directly, his voice sounded more distant as if addressing soone else, "Head to Building 2."
A respectful answer ca from the other end, "Yes."
Jian Yun, visibly happy, turned to Shi Lingyan, "He’s coming."
Shi Lingyan stood up, "I’ll go pick him up."
Ye Tiao watched him with a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile, "How considerate."
Shi Lingyan raised his eyebrows, remaining silent, and left.
It was no joke; that was none other than his future father-in-law. It was only right to be attentive and thorough.
Shi i had already walked into the kitchen and, seeing the fairly acceptable looking dishes, expressed surprise, "You really can cook?"
"Of course!" Tang Jingming was extrely proud, "I am the undefeated little genius!"
"Hehe!" said Ye Tiao, glancing over, "But we’ve got quite a few people here. Will there be enough to eat?"
"If it’s not enough, I had originally prepared five dishes and a soup, but now not only did I ruin one of the dishes, even the rice..." Tang Jingming couldn’t bear to look straight at Ye Tiao, "Whoever marries you is cursed!"
"Damn!" Ye Tiao sprang up from the sofa, "Say that again! What’s wrong with , what’s wrong with the rice I cooked!"
Shi i decided not to get involved in their war and silently went to check the rice cooker.
Emmm...
After putting the lid back on, Shi i turned to Tang Jingming, "Who gave you the courage to let her into the kitchen?"
Tang Jingming was filled with regret, "I was deceived by her sworn promises, sigh..."
