Chapter 362: That would take some grinding.

However, as she confronted Tang Shu’s puzzled expression again, it seemed she understood something, with a flash of comprehension in her eyes.

So this beauty still hasn’t caught on?

Well, that would take some grinding.

"Nothing, just pretend I didn’t say anything. Let’s just move," she said.

Tang Shu stood still for a moment, recalling how she had jokingly teased Zhang Yilin and Chen Xin before, and decided not to mind and followed them.

Two minutes later, the three of them got into the car heading to their new home.

Since there was an additional person, Jing Yu remained silent throughout the trip, until they arrived at the villa’s entrance 40 minutes later.

"Xiao Shu, you’ve finally arrived!"

Aunt Xia, who hadn’t been seen for nearly ten days, stood at the villa’s entrance in very casual clothing, holding a cleaning rag in her hand.

"Aunt Xia, are you... cleaning?"

"Yes, there’s been a lot of wind these past few days, and a layer of dust has settled on the furniture, so I asked Aunt Lin to help me clean up a bit."

"Thank you so much, but I could have done these myself."

"What’s there to be polite about between neighbors for such small matters?"

Xie Wuxia first observed her son and Tang Shu, then was quickly drawn by the new presence of Su Xiaochi.

"Who might this be..."

"This is my new assistant, Xiao Chi."

"Hello, Madam Jing."

"Ah, this assistant... doesn’t seem like an ordinary person, and is quite good-looking too."

Clearly, both mother and son had noticed something different about Su Xiaochi.

It wasn’t just her outstanding appearance, but also her eyes and dress that carried a certain casualness.

Su Xiaochi touched her nose with a hint of chagrin, promptly taking the cleaning rag from Mrs. Jing’s hand.

"Madam Jing, I can take care of these matters, you two go ahead and talk."

As her figure disappeared down the hallway, Jing Yu looked at Tang Shu with a smile, "Assistant?"

That assistant was certainly not ordinary.

Seeing that both were suspicious of Su Xiaochi’s identity, Tang Shu simply explained.

"Strictly speaking, she’s my friend, and will be staying close by me for a while. She’s quite skilled, and can be considered a bodyguard, too."

Mrs. Xie, remembering Tang Shu’s profession, understood and didn’t inquire further, nodding her head before changing the subject.

"Little Yu, go help with the luggage... oh my, is that all you have?!"

"Yes, I don’t have many daily clothes, this is enough."

Xie Wuxia shook her head in disapproval, "That’s too little. I’ll go shopping with you one of these days!"

In her opinion, a young girl should dress up nicely, changing outfits three or four times a day was the norm.

Tang Shu smiled and accepted the kind offer, "Alright, I’ll have to trouble Aunt Xia in the future."

"What’s troubling about that? You two clean up, I’ll go have Aunt Zhang start cooking, you don’t need to cook since you just moved in. Let’s have lunch together."

Xie Wuxia was a brisk person and soon vanished from the entrance.

Jing Yu’s attention, however, still lingered on Su Xiaochi’s identity.

"She’s a bodyguard? Did your company hire her, or..."

With that said, Tang Shu couldn’t help but take it more seriously, "What do you want to ask?"

"I’ve read the news about those Tomb Raiders and heard some rumors recently. Your current situation isn’t very good, and Miss Su doesn’t seem like an ordinary bodyguard."

As she spoke, Jing Yu scrutinized her for a moment, then didn’t continue.

Tang Shu knew he had guessed some of the truth and admitted it, yet she was still surprised at Jing Yu’s astuteness.
