"Looks like you know your Sister Tongtong very well!" Lu Beichen asked.
"Of course!" Shen Congling replied with great confidence, "That’s why I’m Sister Tongtong’s close little sister!"
"Did she ever mention her mother to you?"
Lu Beichen suddenly asked this question, and Shen Congling went quiet for a few seconds, then responded with a question instead: "Why is the handsome brother-in-law asking this? Did Sister Tongtong ever mention it to you?"
Lu Beichen shook his head, "Never mentioned it, so I’m curious!"
Li Yi also turned his head curiously to look at Shen Congling.
She puffed her cheeks, looking quite embarrassed with a baby face, "I haven’t heard her talk about it either! Seems it’s because of Uncle Ji that it’s never brought up, and Sister Tongtong herself doesn’t mention it! I’m starting to wonder if Sister Tongtong’s mom passed away right after she was born, no one’s ever seen her, not even a photo! Hmm..."
Forget it, I should keep my mouth shut!
She glanced at the person in his arms, "Sister Tongtong hasn’t made a sound, she must be asleep, otherwise she’d hit me if she heard!"
"She hits people?" Lu Beichen’s originally gloomy face suddenly carried a hint of smile.
"Never seen her do that!" Shen Congling laughed, ducking her head down.
The car quickly arrived at New City Villa, Lu Beichen carried Ji Niandong into the elevator, while Li Yi turned the car around, preparing to leave.
Shen Congling glanced sideways at him, folded her arms, and rolled her eyes, "I really thought you were kind enough to take me in, turns out you immediately went to report to Sister Tongtong and the handsome brother-in-law. Don’t worry, once I get paid, I’ll pay you back!"
"What are you talking about?!" Li Yi replied, dissatisfied.
"You don’t know what I’m talking about?" Shen Congling was exceptionally angry, "The moment I saw Sister Tongtong today, she asked if I was being a nuisance staying at your place. She went on her honeymoon, I thought she’d bring me a gift, but instead I got a scolding, all because of you! Was I really a nuisance at your place? Was I?"
"Well, if the wallpaper ruined by posters doesn’t count, the sofa dirtied by snacks doesn’t count, the garbage covering the living room floor doesn’t count..." Li Yi took a deep breath, "Then you truly didn’t trouble me!"
"You’re really holding a grudge, you sulky lump!" Shen Congling said, gritting her teeth with a grimace, "I told you I’d pay for the wallpaper, for the sofa cover I offered to wash it, but you refused, and I cleaned the living room myself afterwards. But you insisted on cleaning again. So it’s my fault?"
Li Yi nodded, gritting his teeth, "Fine, let’s disregard the rest, just counting the wallpaper and the money you owe me, that’s over ten thousand, right? No wait, the wallpaper needs to be completely replaced, twenty thousand!"
"You’re extorting me, huh? If these cost that much, shouldn’t you pay me? You think I don’t know you stole a kiss while I was asleep yesterday, you know that’s my first kiss? First kisses are priceless, you hear me! Can you afford it? That’s reserved for my Big Sunshine! If only I had pressed him to the ground and kissed him that time!" Shen Congling became more and more aggrieved as she spoke.
Li Yi initially felt a bit guilty, but hearing her last sentence, he opened his mouth and finally said, "When did I ever kiss you? You must have dreamed it!"
"You...!" Shen Congling pointed her index finger at him, Li Yi slightly turned away not to look at her, only after a while did she joyfully ask, "Was it really just a dream? Oh, thank goodness!"
She patted Li Yi on the shoulder, "Don’t misunderstand! You’re always popping up around me, so I thought I dreamt about you. Actually, the one I kissed must be my Big Sunshine!"
She laughed uncontrollably, while a streak of annoyance appeared on Li Yi’s forehead!
