Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 26
Chapter 26 Sink Deeper And Deeper
Tang Jin Chen and his father stayed in the study room to discuss some of the Tang Clan’s decisions. Unknowingly, half of the time had passed. Tang Yu Xin paced back and forth outside the study room, and did not dare to disturb the conversation between the two of them and their relatives.
Knowing that she couldn’t help with Tang Corporation’s big and small affairs, she could only stay outside the door and try not to disturb them. Although she had long since lost her patience, Tang Yu Xin circled around the door a few times until she was dizzy and didn’t wait for her father and brother to come out of the study. She simply sat down on the ground.
Mother saw that Tang Yuxin hadn’t moved for a long time in the study, so she anxiously went up to see that Tang Yuxin was sitting on the ground, bored and drowsy. Mother looked at her, feeling both heartache and amusement. She immediately took out the courage of the Tang Family’s hostess and chased the father and son out of the study.
Tang Yu’s heart swept away the haze, jumped up from the ground, and pulled Tang Jin Chen’s arm again. However, she always felt that the two of them hadn’t chatted for long before the sky darkened. Tang Jin Chen stood up and said that he wanted to go back to deal with some matters.
“Brother, as soon as you come back, you hide in the study room with your father and talk about your fortifications. After waiting for a long time, Mom finally pulled you out. It hasn’t been a while, but you have to go back again. No, I won’t allow you to go back so early.”
As she spoke, Tang Yuxin tightened her grip on Tang Jin Chen’s hand. She put her head on Tang Jin Chen’s skeleton and said nothing to let Tang Jin Chen leave.
The two of them stalled for a long time. In the end, Tang Jin Chen could only agree to let the driver send the two siblings back to Tang Jin Chen’s apartment, so that Tang Yu Xin could have a chance to chat more with her brother.
Tang Yuxin was very happy about this rare opportunity. Ever since she returned home, she had not had the chance to talk to her brother alone. The most she did every day was to wait, but she should not be like this.
The distance between the Tang Family and Tang Jin Chen’s apartment was about forty to fifty minutes by car, Tang Yu Xin especially cherished this hard-won relationship. Ever since she got on the car, she couldn’t wait to pull Tang Jin Chen and talk nonstop. She talked about her friends abroad, the interesting things she had encountered abroad and the time she missed. Tang Jin Chen found that Tang Yu had said it for so long without mentioning the interesting things that had happened at home, not even a single word.
Tang Jin Chen knew that his sister, whom he usually cherished, had never returned as happy as she had imagined.
“I seldom hear you mention your friends in the country, and I don’t see how you can go out.” Tang Jin Chen pretended to ask inadvertently.
Tang Yuxin, who was still chattering nonstop just now, suddenly stopped and glanced out of the window. Her expression also darkened.
‘”My parents said they wanted me to stay by their side for a few years, so the matter of working was temporarily delayed, and they didn’t like my social occasions where I came and went. I’ve been abroad for so many years, and all my friends are abroad, so my companions who used to play in China have long disappeared, let alone …”
Tang Yu Xin wanted to say something but hesitated. She bit her lip and didn’t say anything else. Tang Jin Chen knew what Tang Yu Xin meant and rubbed her head with her big hands as usual.
“Mom and Dad are doing this for your own good. The business circle is already complicated. In addition, the media also likes to write exaggerated reports. Selling a gimmick is also for fear that you will be troubled.”
“But they have to ask me what I think.” Tang Yu argued in her heart, and then as if she was trying to get Tang Jin Chen’s opinion, a last glimmer of hope lit up in her eyes. “Brother, do you also agree with my parents keeping me at home like this? You know I don’t want to do this at all.”
Tang Jin Chen looked at Tang Yu Xin’s earnest gaze. His pair of talking eyes blinked non-stop. He knew that his sister was locked in the safe house they had carefully built for her. She was not happy.
Tang Jin Chen would always satisfy Tang Yu Xin’s request. No matter how difficult it was, Tang Jin Chen would find a way to do it for her. However, Tang Jin Chen was powerless and unable to satisfy her.
“You should spend more time with your parents.” It was a gesture.
Hearing Tang Jin Chen’s reply, Tang Yu Xin revealed a disappointed expression. Her shoulders sank, and she could only sit and bury her head obediently.
There was an unprecedented silence between the two siblings …
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of Tang Jin Chen’s apartment. Tang Jin Chen saw that Tang Yu Xin was still unhappy, but Tang Jin Chen recalled Anzi Xi’s wronged appearance last night.
“Hurry up and go back. I’ll make time to go home often.” After saying that, Tang Jin Chen got out of the car.
“Really?”
Tang Yuxin’s eyes lit up and her whole body became excited again. She jumped out of the car behind Tang Jin Chen and pulled his arm and laughed.
Tang Jin Chen chuckled and nodded. As his younger sister, her emotions came and went quickly. Her curiosity was extremely high and she was easily satisfied.
Tang Yuxin rubbed her elder brother Tang Jin Chen’s arm for a long time, afraid that Tang Jin Chen would play tricks on Tang Jin Chen next time, next time, next time when she returned home, her hearty laughter sounded happy to An Zi Xi who was also walking to the apartment door.
An Zixi was infected by the laughter without any impurities, so he did not encourage her to look for the source. An Zixi saw a luxurious black car parked at the entrance of the apartment, and the lights flickered at night.
Standing in the dim light was a man and a woman. The woman wore beautiful curly hair and butterfly-shaped hair ribbons on her head, revealing a bright face. She pressed her face tightly against the man’s arm. The man wore a straight suit and outlined a tall and plucked figure. The man’s face was facing An Zixi. She immediately recognized that the man was Tang Jin Chen.
In an instant, it was as if an invisible hand had grabbed onto her heart tightly, causing her breathing to stifle. An Zixi could even imagine the smile on Tang Jin Chen’s face at this moment, his eyes filled with love that she had never seen before.
It turns out that not everyone is born with an indifferent face. Being indifferent to you only means that he doesn’t care.
An Zixi was dumbfounded on the spot, hesitating whether he should continue forward or whether it would be better if he turned around and left.
She looked at Tang Jin Chen’s appearance. Not only did she not resist the woman in front of her at all, the relationship between the two of them seemed to be very intimate, so An Zi Xi naturally did not need to step forward.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Tang Jin Chen took a step closer to look in her direction. An Zi Xi was at a loss for words. He turned around and raised his leg to walk forward in panic.
“Stop.” Tang Jin Chen’s words came from behind him, returning to his usual indifference. He said in a life-threatening tone, “Come here.”
An Zixi knew that he had no reason to flee, so he could only slowly turn around and walk towards Tang Jin Chen again. His eyes couldn’t help but drift towards the woman beside Tang Jin Chen with a look of pure curiosity. For a moment, An Zi Xi, who had always been polite and generous in front of him, suddenly felt helpless.
An Zixi stopped in front of the two of them and deliberately moved a little distance away. Tang Jin Chen, however, approached by himself. He lowered his head slightly and looked at An Zi Xi, who was only as tall as his own body. It had only been half a day since he saw An Zi Xi, but he felt that An Zi Xi had already left his line of sight for a long time.
“I’m back. Where else do you want to go?” Tang Jin Chen asked coldly.
“Ah?” An Zixi was shocked by Tang Jin Chen’s words. Didn’t he ask so clearly that the two of them lived together? An Zi Xi couldn’t help but look in the direction of the woman. The woman’s face was still filled with pure curiosity.
“Brother, do you two live together?” Tang Yu Xin tilted her head to look at Tang Jin Chen, as if she had seen through his little thoughts. “No wonder she hasn’t come home to see me lately. I caught her!”
Brother?
An Zixi looked at Tang Jin Chen doubtfully. She had never heard Tang Jin Chen and the surrounding people mention that Tang Jin Chen had a younger sister.
Upon closer inspection, the two of them were actually very similar. However, the gap between their speech acts made it impossible for them to connect, which was why they ignored this point.
Ever since An Zixi appeared, Tang Jin Chen’s gaze had been tightly locked onto An Zi Xi, not letting go of even a slight expression. Tang Jin Chen put An Zi Xi’s expression in his eyes from beginning to end, and now it was his turn to be happy.
It could only be said that An Zixi’s reaction made him very satisfied.
Tang Yuxin’s pair of big eyes wandered between Tang Jin Chen and An Zi Xi. No matter how ignorant she was, Tang Yu Xin could still see the subtleties between men and women. Moreover, Tang Jin Chen’s unusual reaction allowed Tang Yu Xin to be certain that there was something unusual between her brother Tang Jin Chen and the woman in front of her.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Tang Yuxin’s mind and she smiled craftily.
“Brother, this sister is so beautiful. No wonder you’ve been staring at her motionlessly.” Tang Yuxin walked over to An Zixi and drew her face closer.
“You are two years older than her. You should call me sister.” Tang Jin Chen, who hadn’t spoken for a long time, corrected him from the side.
An Zixi secretly glared at Tang Jin Chen. Other than his age, how could the person in front of him look older than him? Tang Jin Chen deliberately emphasized that he was simply digging a hole to make An Zi Xi jump down with shame.
‘”Hello, my name is Tang Yuxin. I haven’t made any friends since I returned to China. You look so beautiful and my brother likes you so much. Let’s make friends! Remember to accompany me in the future.”
Tang Yu Xin grinned, her pair of agile eyes blinking at An Zi Xi, and then she reached out to stop in front of An Zi Xi.
An Zixi looked at Tang Yuxin’s harmless appearance and unconsciously raised his hand to greet her in confusion. Just as he was thinking about how to explain his relationship with Tang Jin Chen, Tang Jin Chen raised his chin slightly and spoke with an arrogant expression.
“Mm, I don’t have time for you to stay at home alone in the future. Just accompany my sister more.”
…
An Zixi had a feeling that he was getting deeper and deeper …
There is no contract to accompany my sister …
