After finishing his words, Lu Yichen turned around and went downstairs to fetch sothing from the car. Luo Qiao had told him to bring so money for Yiting, urging him not to let her suffer without it, as he had forgotten it in the car earlier.
This apartnt building housed over twenty families on just one floor, and nobody had clearly heard what the three of them had said earlier, but it was apparent from Woo Mo and Feng Qin’s expressions that they were not looking good.
It was dinner ti now, and so gossipy won gathered together, "What did you guys think Yiting’s brother said to Woo Mo and his wife just now?"
"Definitely nothing pleasant, look how dark Woo Mo’s face got."
"Feng Qin is just full of it, always eyeing Director Kong’s family every day, either complaining about his love for this or griping about that. I really don’t know what she’s thinking."
"What she’s thinking? You guys don’t know? She has a younger sister who’s about to graduate from university, and she visited their ho a few months ago. Feng Qin guaranteed to find her sister a good match."
"What? Are you suggesting that she ddles with Yiting every day with an ulterior motive?"
"I can’t say for sure, but don’t you think she targets Yiting a bit too much?"
"That’s true, and whenever Director Kong gets off work and cos ho, Feng Qin is always there right on ti to strike up a conversation. Isn’t that weird?"
"If that’s the case, then Feng Qin is really out of line. Director Kong’s child is almost ten months old now; what she’s doing is simply immoral."
"So do you think Yiting’s older brother sensed sothing and was warning them just now?"
"It’s possible. Otherwise, what else could explain Woo Mo’s expression?"
"What does Feng Qin think she’s doing with Director Kong? I heard that Director Kong and his spouse have known each other since they were kids, that’s true childhood sweethearts. I think she must have water in her brain."
"Don’t spread this around; after all, it’s all just speculation without proof. Let’s not make things difficult for Director Kong, who has done us no harm."
"Right, right, right, let’s disperse, it’s ti for dinner, let’s stop spreading rumors."
Lu Yichen, coming back up, heard all those words, his facial expression extraordinarily ugly.
The woman who first ntioned Feng Qin’s sister graduating was peeking through the door crack, spotting Lu Yichen walking by and revealed a smug smile.
She didn’t get along with Feng Qin, who hadn’t stopped gossiping about her usually. She had just seen Lu Yichen fetching sothing from the car and walked back, so she deliberately said those words, wanting him to hear.
She considered herself just and determined, regardless of what Feng Qin intended, she was set on thwarting her plans.
Lu Yichen entered the room and surreptitiously handed the envelope he had prepared earlier to his sister, behind Big Brother’s back: "Keep this, it’s from your sister-in-law. She told to give it to you, to help you get whatever you need for the house."
Lu Yiting glanced at the money in the envelope: "This isn’t right, I’m already married, how can I still take my sister-in-law’s money?"
"Stop refusing, this has been discussed between your sister-in-law and , it’s our sincere gesture. Hurry up and take it, don’t make Big Brother feel awkward when he sees it later."
With no alternative, Lu Yiting accepted it.
"Don’t worry, your sister-in-law said, with you being her only sister-in-law, she doesn’t want to see you struggling."
Tears welled up in Lu Yiting’s eyes: "Thank you, Big Brother and sister-in-law, it’s great to have you guys."
Just as Lu Yiting was preparing to cook, she heard soone outside asking, "Excuse , is this Lu Yiting’s ho?"
Kong Xiangrui, who was about to steam rice, answered the door: "Who are you?"
"Soone ordered a al at our restaurant, and I’m delivering it."
Kong Xiangrui glanced inside and Lu Yixuan, hearing the conversation, also ca out: "Let him in, it was Big Brother who ordered it."
Kong Xiangrui felt a bit embarrassed: "You’ve made a special trip to see Yiting, brought food and drink, purchased a refrigerator, and now even the als are ordered. I really don’t have any opportunity to contribute here."
Lu Yichen ca out of the bedroom: "Alright, quit your jabbering. We’re doing all this for my sister, not for you."
The delivery man set the food: "The al is ready, you guys go ahead and eat, I’ll co back in an hour to collect the dishes."
Lu Yiting picked up so peaches she had washed earlier: "Thank you for this, have so peaches on the way."
The delivery guy felt a bit embarrassed, but Lu Yiting insisted and put them into his hands: "Don’t be shy, just take it."
