Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng were being affectionate for a while before she returned home, only to encounter Yang Ruyu; one entering and the other leaving.
"Eldest cousin," Yang Ruyu greeted Yang Ruxin very formally, nodding her head, then turned back to wave at Xun Hui, "Auntie, please go back." She then hurried off.
Yang Ruxin turned to watch Yang Ruyu’s retreating figure, her eyebrows slightly raising. Was this girl starting to make house calls again? She hurriedly pushed the door and went in.
"Xinxin, you’re back? Are you tired?" Xun Hui quickly put on a smile.
"What’s going on?" Yang Ruxin slightly raised an eyebrow, "Why would that beautiful and delicate lady be at our home?"
"She just came by to sit for a bit..." Xun Hui appeared a bit awkward.
Yang Ruxin’s brows furrowed slightly.
"Eldest sister, you don’t know, but Yang Ruyu has been here several times, always when you’re not around..." Sanni said with a pout, actually wanting to tell her elder sister sooner, but their mother said it wasn’t a big deal. She came over just to help with some sewing; there was no need to upset her sister. But today, they ran into each other, "I scolded her a few times, but each time she remained silent, so I felt it wasn’t right to take action..."
"Oh." Yang Ruxin suddenly let out a cold laugh, looking at Xun Hui, "So in your heart, Yang Ruyu is more important than me..." She immediately felt a chill in her heart.
"Mother, how could you forget the instructions from our eldest sister?" For the first time, Erni stamped her foot anxiously.
Yang Ruxin looked at Erni in surprise. It seemed that the power of love was indeed great. Although nothing had been explicitly disclosed, ever since she got closer to Gu Yao, the girl appeared to have become more insightful.
"That’s not it." Seeing Yang Ruxin’s cold expression, Xun Hui became flustered, "Xinxin, listen to me..."
"Speak!" Yang Ruxin nodded, her temper settling.
Xun Hui looked into Yang Ruxin’s disappointed eyes, suddenly feeling overwhelmed. She really didn’t think it was such a big deal. Why was her daughter upset again?
"Speak up!" Yang Ruxin’s voice rose slightly, "My patience isn’t very good."
"I’ll speak!" Xun Hui jumped in fright, hurriedly gesturing with her hand, "It’s just that after you helped Rusong, your second aunt... that’s to say, Rusong’s mother would come over to chat sometimes, and Ruyu tagged along..."
Yang Ruxin nodded slightly, signaling for her to continue.
"Initially, I didn’t want to entertain them, but after she came, she would just sit there helping me with sewing without talking. She would sit for an hour or two then leave. How could I just drive her away?" Xun Hui felt somewhat wronged, "She came over today because Rusong asked her to bring over a cotton-padded jacket, which Rusong had made for your Uncle Xiaowu..."
"Why couldn’t you just send her away?" Sanni snorted, "Every time I try to do it, you stop me..."
"I..." Xun Hui was at a loss for words, but she didn’t look at Sanni; instead, she looked to Yang Ruxin, "Xinxin, this..."
Yang Ruxin glanced at the blue cotton-padded jacket, her lips curling slightly, "Hmm, indeed I was too hasty just now..." She had calmed down by now, thinking that since the other party was trying so hard to get close, there was no need to push her away, "Such matters indeed are difficult to refuse."
Xun Hui’s face showed surprise.
"Let her be," Yang Ruxin glanced at Xun Hui, then entered the room. This Yang Ruyu was definitely a scourge; she must expose her sly maneuvers sooner rather than later.
