Chapter 114: Chapter 109: I’ll Save This Job for You from Now On
The hall suddenly became empty, and Tong Yao smiled helplessly, "These kids... No matter how old they are, as long as they gather together, they act like little children. Shiqing, how long will you stay this time?"
Yan Zi watched Tong Yao and Shiqing chat back and forth, and couldn’t help but admire her sister-in-law again. Even though she didn’t like this girl, she still managed to face her with a smile.
Yi Luowa and Tong Airui had just reached the third floor when the sound of footsteps came from behind them. The two turned to look back.
"Don’t look at us with that stare! You two do your thing, we’ll do ours." Tong Aino pouted, pushed open a door, and walked inside.
"This room was our go-to place before bedtime when we were kids." Tong Airui pointed to the room Tong Aino had just entered and said, "Every day, we’d mess around for a while before heading back to our own rooms."
"It must’ve been lively!" Yi Luowa peeked inside, "Such a big bed!"
"All eight of us used to lie on it—of course, it had to be big." Tong Airui chuckled, "When I was little, I often lay on this bed daydreaming. I said I wanted to lie on a bed and see the world for the rest of my life. And yet, now, I’m the one stuck with the toughest grind."
"Yeah right!" Mi Chenxuan walked over, "You’ve got people preparing even your foot bath water for you, and you call yourself suffering?"
Tong Airui gave him a sidelong glance, "I’ll leave that job to you next time."
"My aunt is sitting downstairs!" Mi Chenxuan laughed slyly, swaying into the bedroom, "Hey, little girl, once you finish the tour, come play poker with us!"
Before Yi Luowa could respond, Tong Airui pulled her into the study room, pointed to a chair, and said, "When I was young, I studied here. This chair is mine, this one belongs to Aino, that one is Ai Ni’s, Shuoshuo sat here, Kaikai here, and that one was Xuanxuan’s. My brother and sister had their own study rooms."
Yi Luowa smiled, "Were you always together? Did you ever fight?"
"We never had serious fights, but we did bicker—like we’re doing now." Tong Airui wrapped his arm around her waist and walked out, pointing at a bedroom, "This was my and Aino’s room."
Yi Luowa asked curiously, "You always slept together?"
"I did until I left for college."
"Two grown men..." Yi Luowa rubbed her arm, feeling a little cold.
Tong Airui tightened his grip, pulling her closer to him, "What’s wrong?"
"I’ve got goosebumps all over." Yi Luowa extended her arm for him to see.
"Definitely a little yellow minion!" Tong Airui chuckled and playfully bit her ear, pushing open the bedroom door and leading her inside.
Tong Airui saw the gold watch left on the bedside table and laughed, "Aino slept here last night."
"Maybe he’s reminiscing about your cohabitation days." Yi Luowa smirked mischievously at him.
"Nothing to reminisce about. Ever since I returned to the country, he’s often barged into my bed." Tong Airui laughed, pinching her cheek, "When we’re sleeping together, remind me to lock the door; otherwise, he might sleepwalk his way into our bed."
Yi Luowa swatted his hand away, puffing her cheeks, "Who else has burrowed into your bed?"
"Hmm?" Tong Airui paused, then laughed, "Should I take this as a sign you’re getting jealous?"
Yi Luowa glared at him, "Jealous my ass!"
Tong Airui pulled her down onto the sofa and patiently explained, "I overheard the conversation between you and my sister. If I had any feelings for Shiqing, it wouldn’t be possible for nothing to have happened by this point."
Yi Luowa pouted, "My conversation with Sister Yu was just random chatter. Why are you explaining so seriously?"
"Because I don’t want any misunderstanding between us. It’s best to address things immediately, right as they happen." Tong Airui raised his hand to brush aside the strands of hair over her forehead. "I’ve got good news for you: we’ve passed my dad’s test."
Yi Luowa pursed her lips and smiled, "My second uncle just called me earlier, asking about it."
"What did you say?"
"I said I haven’t been kicked out yet."
"Cheeky!" Tong Airui laughed, tapping her nose lightly.
"Your dad is kind of intimidating." Yi Luowa held onto his hand, speaking softly, "When he talked to me, my heart almost jumped out of my chest."
"You’re usually so gutsy! My dad doesn’t bite—what’s there to be scared of?"
Yi Luowa cupped his face, inspecting it from side to side, "True. You and your dad look exactly alike. I’m not afraid of you, so why would I be afraid of him?"
"Spend more time with him, and you’ll understand what kind of person he is. He’s good to the people he cares about—especially to my mom. He’s incredibly considerate towards her."
"And you?"
"Of course, I have to be even better..."
"Sweet words, huh?" Ai Ni entered, carrying Yi Luowa’s bag alongside You Jia, "Yuan Hang gave this to you."
"Thanks." Yi Luowa took the bag, smiled, and said, "I also think Tong Airui just talks big. He’s so unpredictable—I doubt he can be that good."
Tong Airui glanced at the two of them, "Stop pairing up to annoy me! Ai Ni, what did Dad say to you two?"
