Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Tan Ming saw Si Cheng take out his phone, she hurriedly pounced forward and stopped Si Cheng from clicking on his phone camera. Her face was filled with anxiety. “No!”
Si Cheng grabbed Tan Ming’s wrist and ordered in a tough tone, “Move back home immediately!”
Jiang Huai was afraid that Tan Ming would compromise for his sake. He couldn’t let his sister run away just to fall into the wolf’s den again. Hence, he went forward and pulled Tan Ming’s other arm. “An’an, we’re upright, so we have nothing to hide! Some people are such cheaters that whenever they see others with the opposite sex, they only think that the other party is cheating on them. Ignore him!”
Tan Ming looked around and was a little hesitant. The netizens had higher moral standards for public figures. Although they were innocent siblings, they could not withstand the slander of those keyboard warriors. Once such news was exposed, even if they could explain it clearly later, it would still cause a certain negative impact.
Si Cheng raised his phone with his free hand again, wanting to take a photo. “Alright, you’re not afraid, right?”
Tan Ming hurriedly stopped him. “Si Cheng, don’t be rash!”
Seeing this, Jiang Huai stretched out his slender arm and quickly reached over. Si Cheng was caught off guard, and the phone in his hand was sent flying and smashed against the wall, falling to the ground.
Jiang Huai took the opportunity to pull Tan Ming behind him and turned his head slightly to look at her. “An’an, go home quickly. I have to make a trip to the company.”
Tan Ming was also thinking about the fact that the main issue of the dispute had disappeared. Even if Si Cheng wanted to take a photo, he couldn’t. Hence, she quickly took out her key and opened the door to go home.
Si Cheng pushed Jiang Huai away forcefully. When he wanted to barge in, Tan Ming had already closed the door.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Si Cheng slammed the door forcefully. “Tan Ming! Open the door! Get home now!”
Jiang Huai crossed his arms in front of his chest and leaned against the door leisurely. He smiled and said, “Take whatever pictures you want. The soundproofing of this door is good. As long as you don’t mind some pain in your hands, you can take photos all the way until night time.”
The burning sensation on his palm confirmed Jiang Huai’s words. Si Cheng calmed down. Thinking of the conversation between the two of them just now, he felt that they should at least be innocent now, and the anger in his chest subsided a little.
Si Cheng turned around and glanced at Jiang Huai. He pointed at Jiang Huai with his index finger and sneered. “Don’t be so smug! I’ll strip you naked!”
With that, Si Cheng turned around and walked to the elevator. Jiang Huai curled his lips slightly and walked to Si Cheng’s side to wait for the elevator with a fearless expression.
The banging and howling that Tan Ming heard from the door had already become as soft as a mosquito’s cry. She knew that her third brother could handle it, so she ignored it.
In the living room, Li Mei and Jiang Hai were playing with Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi. When they heard the noises at the entrance, they turned around and saw Tan Ming.
Li Mei immediately put down the doll in her hand and walked forward with a smile. “An’an is back!”
Tan Ming changed into her slippers and quickly went forward to hug her parents. “Daddy, Mommy.”
Jiang Hai helped Tan Ming take off her backpack. “Quick, sit down and drink some water.”
Li Mei looked around Tan Ming and frowned. “You’ve lost weight! You definitely didn’t eat well overseas, right? I have to nourish you well these two days!”
Tan Ming finally understood the saying: There’s a kind of hunger; called the one where your mom feels you’re hungry.
Tan Ming didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Mom, I’ve been eating quite well these past two days. I even felt that my clothes were a little tight when I wore them this morning. I was just about to pay attention to my figure and lose some weight.”
Li Mei pulled Tan Ming into the living room with a disapproving expression. “What’s there to lose? Don’t learn from those who just talk about losing weight all day. Health is the most important thing! The clothes might have shrunk a little, that’s why they’re tight. Mom will bring you to buy new clothes in two days.”
Jiang Hai, the doting father, also chimed in, “Your figure should be the standard. It’s a matter of ill-fitting clothes if your clothes are too small. What does it have to do with you? I’ll transfer some money to you tomorrow. When you’re free, let your mother accompany you to go shopping.”
Tan Ming smiled helplessly and did not dare to continue the conversation. She was afraid that they would transfer money again if she disagreed.
The babies grew up especially quickly. Tan Ming touched the two little fatties wearing undergarments on the sofa and said with a smile, “I feel that after not seeing them for a few days, the two little fatties seem to have grown up a little more.”
Li Mei nodded. “That’s right. Children are different every day.”
When Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi sensed their mother’s presence, they involuntarily took the initiative to approach Tan Ming’s hand. Tan Ming’s heart softened when she saw this. She kissed her son and daughter’s little faces..
