“I can’t take it anymore, this smell is suffocating me.” Xiao Qian just wants to go home and take a shower now.
The two waved their hands weakly and got into their own cars.
Xiao Qian opened the car door and saw that it wasn’t the driver, but her eldest brother who came in person.
“Big Brother, why aren’t you sleeping so late? Just have a driver pick me up.”
“With you causing trouble outside, if I don’t escort you myself, the youngest one will come back and tear down our house – Xiao Qian, did you go to serve plates or slaughter sheep?” Eldest Brother wrinkled his nose and took the car’s air freshener, spraying it all over Xiao Qian.
“It’s all for you evil capitalists, it’s not easy for us low-level workers.”
“Give up on this task, don’t torture yourself like this. If the youngest comes back and knows that I brought you here, he’ll still tear down our house.”
“I’ve never given up halfway in anything I’ve done.”
“Is this really necessary? What exactly are you up to?”
“It’s absolutely necessary. She needs to know that every cent earned is hard-earned, to reshape her worldview, to make her start to empathize with her father, and also give her father more opportunities to pay attention to her – of course, I could actually not participate, and just direct her to do it on her own.”
“Then let her serve the plates and don’t follow.”
Xiao Qian suddenly smirked and playfully looked at her eldest brother.
“Big Brother, are you afraid of being inspected by my eldest sister-in-law? Did she ask you where you were going?”
Yu Mingli coughed lightly, “Nonsense, we’ve been together for so many years, your eldest sister-in-law trusts me the most.”
After dropping Xiao Qian off at her home, Yu Mingli handed her the phone, and Xiao Qian raised her eyebrows.
“Call your eldest sister-in-law and let her know you’re safe, otherwise she won’t be at ease.”
“Pfft!”
The inner thoughts of a billionaire real estate businessman exposed, this joke effectively relieved Xiao Qian’s exhaustion from working all day.
Jia Xiufang kept waiting until late into the night, her eyelids glued together, holding a remote control, staring at the TV, her head slowly drooping. Upon hearing the door open, she instantly perked up.
“Qian’er, you’re back!” Her daughter called to say she would be working late into the night, and Jia Xiufang couldn’t help but worry, waiting until now.
“Yeah, is the water boiling? I need to take a bath.”
Jia Xiufang took Xiao Qian’s big cotton-padded jacket, sniffed it and angrily said,
“Chen Xiaoqian, you little brat, didn’t you say you went to work at a barbecue restaurant? Why do you smell like perfume? Tell me honestly, where did you go? Did you work at some messy, decadent place?”
Xiao Qian was speechless.
Yu Mingli’s sprays on her had successfully misled her mother.
“Mom, calm down, I didn’t go to those places.”
“If you didn’t, where did you get this perfume? Since you said you’d be coming back late from work, I’ve been worried. I’m telling you, if you dare to go astray, I’ll break your legs. Our family’s not rich, but if you dare do that kind of flirtatious stuff, I’ll, 1’11-”
Xiao Qian puts her hand over her mother’s mouth, what are you excited about in the middle of the night!
“What smell…”
“The smell of lamb, I can’t get rid of it even after several washes. I told you I went to skewer lamb, but you didn’t believe me. Who wears this big cotton jacket when they flirt? They all wear super short skirts at Night Shanghai.” “Don’t talk back to me! Who knows if you’re not fooling around? Who just dropped you off?”
“Yu Mingli, Yu Minglang’s eldest brother.”
“Call him and let me chat with him.” Jia Xiufang was worried her daughter would go astray and insisted on confirming.
Xiao Qian could only call Yu Mingli back.
“Big Brother, it’s Xiao Qian. My mother wants to chat with you…”
Xiao Qian swore she clearly heard the sly businessman’s undisguised laughter, as if gloating over her misfortune, coupled with revenge for her mocking him as a henpecked husband just now.
What goes around comes around.
Jia Xiufang felt at ease after talking on the phone and couldn’t stop nagging Xiao Qian.
“What the hell were you thinking, working? If you want to make money, stay home and do laundry for me, and I’ll pay you. Now go take a shower, and I’ll heat up some food for you. My daughter, what are you doing serving others…” “Mom, there’s no distinction in professions, the more you do physical labor, the more it strengthens you. Look at Shuixian, she hardly eats, but she ate half a bowl today.”
Jia Xiufang pushed Xiao Qian into the bathroom, “Other people’s children eat half a bowl, my daughter’s so skinny she’s turned into a monkey, a monkey smelling like lamb! Chen Xiaoqian, don’t come out until you’re clean.”
As Xiao Qian was scrubbing vigorously, Lily Tang also returned to the hotel, exhausted.
Standing in front of her room, she stopped.
Since her father started doing business, she saw him less and less. Many times, he would only come home after she was asleep.
Two-thirty in the morning, it should be normal for her father.
She was so tired now that she could barely lift her arms. So this is what it feels like to work late into the night.
She hadn’t contacted Tang Daye the whole day and didn’t know if he was back. She went into the hotel to take a bath, and after using half a bottle of shower gel, she finally got the smell of lamb off her body. She changed into pajamas and, though exhausted, propped herself up and opened the door to see if Tang Daye had returned.
Tang Daye had just gotten off the plane not long ago, looking travel-worn as he walked over and saw his daughter peeking out.
Lily Tang closed the door, but her father’s tired face lingered in her mind. So this is the expression her father had when he came home late at night.
Her phone rang, and she went over to grab it, seeing it was a message from Xiao Qian.
The world in your eyes is certainly not complete; in the places you can’t see, a lot is happening. Drink up this bowl of chicken soup for the soul.
So timely, Lily Tang sent her a quick reply, hurriedly put down the phone, and ran to the door. As the door opened, Tang Daye’s hand was awkwardly raised in mid-air, yet to fall.
“Shuixian, want to have a late-night snack together?”
“Sure.”
“Was work hard? Any insights?”
“…My insight is that I think their lamb might be fake. The smell is so strong, could it be mixed with fragrance? Dad, don’t eat kebabs anymore.”
“Haha, alright, I’ll listen to my girl. Let’s go, I’ll take you out for some porridge.” Tang Daye laughed heartily.
Soaking in the bathtub, Xiao Qian grabbed her phone and saw a message from Lily Tang: Tomorrow, we’ll fight Jianghu again.
Xiao Qian put her phone on the soap holder, grabbed the milk she sneaked in, and poured the whole bottle into the bathtub for a milk bath to relieve tomorrow’s fatigue.
She wondered what Xiao Qiang was up to now. She really thought she was a contradictory person.
When she was treating and guiding Lily Tang, she made it clear that she should believe in different perspectives in the world, but she lied to her own patient..
