Chapter 765: Chapter 765: She’s My Sister
Wu Xin’s abilities are really quite formidable.
"Can’t you change your way of addressing me, Wu Xin? You can call me Xiao Yue." Tang Yue corrected for the umpteenth time: "Calling me Miss Tang sounds so awkward, doesn’t it? Like we are strangers."
"Miss."
Wu Xin finally amended his address.
Tang Yue: "..."
"You are my employer, Xiao Yue..."
Before Wu Xin could finish, Tang Yue said: "The old saying goes, ’Jianghu people are not particular about trifles.’ Aren’t you also Jianghu people? Why are you so... rigid?"
"Xiao Yue."
Wu Xin finally changed his address.
Tang Yue said with a smile, "That’s more like it."
Her eyes darted around, and she snatched a White Rabbit Creamy Candy from the coffee table in the living room and handed it to him, saying, "Here, Wu Xin, a reward for you."
Wu Xin: ...
"This White Rabbit Creamy Candy is really delicious, fragrant, sweet, with a creamy flavor." Tang Yue’s manner was like she was coaxing a petulant child.
"Xiao Yue, I don’t eat candy." Wu Xin refused.
She had never eaten candy since she was little, let alone now that she’s grown up.
"But it’s really tasty," Tang Yue insisted, peeling the candy wrapper and holding it to her mouth, "Just try it."
Tang Yue looked hopeful, and after all, the candy was already touching Wu Xin’s lips.
Wu Xin reluctantly ate one.
Tang Yue peeled one for herself, the sweet candy making her very happy, her eyes squinted with delight as she asked, "How is it? Isn’t it sweet?"
"Mhm."
Wu Xin nodded. The candy was indeed very sweet and had a creamy flavor, but even sweeter was Tang Yue’s smile.
Having eaten the candy, Tang Yue got busy. During the past few days at home, she hadn’t been idle at all. She made new clothes for her parents and for Tang Jun, woolen overcoats for her father and Xiao Jun, in dark navy, solid and dirt-resistant.
Tang Zhengde was tall, and looked lean and smart in an overcoat. Tang Jun, now a strapping young man over one meter eighty tall and much taller than Tang Yue, looked young and fashionable with the subtle changes she made to the design.
For her mother, Zhang Hualian, she made a woolen vest dress, perfect over a sweater, and when it got cold, it could be worn with a cotton-padded jacket, both stylish and warm.
When the weather warmed up, it could be worn alone to great fashionable effect.
She packed all the clothes nicely and went out with Wu Xin to mail them.
After posting the clothes at the post office, she called Zhang Hualian to remind her to look out for the parcels.
The mother and daughter hadn’t seen each other for a while, and even a phone call seemed to bring endless conversation.
After ending the call, Tang Yue began to think about visiting Wangjiang County in a few days.
The end of the year was approaching, and the garment factory would need to settle its accounts and also discuss plans for the next year.
She couldn’t be an absentee proprietor, taking the profits and only focusing on design while leaving everything else to Uncle.
These years, Uncle had put a lot of hard work into the garment factory.
And there were also her old teachers whom she wanted to visit.
Following Wu Xin, Tang Yue leisurely strolled through the streets of Jin City. She hadn’t properly explored the city during her stay, and now was a good time to look around.
Suddenly, Tang Yue stopped in her tracks as she saw Xie Ziyue and Lian Qingqing walking towards her, hand in hand, very close to each other, clearly a couple, their eyes brimming with love – weren’t they crazy in love?
Xie Ziyue and Lian Qingqing?
Tang Yue never expected that they were actually a couple.
It was such an encounter that even if Tang Yue wanted to leave, she couldn’t.
"Tang Yue?" When Lian Qingqing saw Tang Yue, she was also greatly shocked and asked, "Aren’t you in F country? Why did you come back?"
"It’s the New Year," Tang Yue briefly replied.
"You know each other?" Xie Ziyue curiously looked at Lian Qingqing. Meeting someone familiar, Xie Ziyue also felt a bit embarrassed and let go of the hand he was holding.
Lian Qingqing felt somewhat displeased inside. She and Xie Ziyue were openly together, not like there was anything to hide.
She nodded and said, "Yes, I know her."
After saying that, Lian Qingqing belatedly asked, "Brother Zi Yue, you know Tang Yue too?"
"I’ve met her twice," Xie Ziyue responded.
Tang Yue nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xie, for the two rescues."
Lian Qingqing asked in detail and learned about the causes and consequences of these two incidents. Then she wondered aloud, "Tang Yue, did you provoke someone you shouldn’t have?"
"I haven’t been in Jin City for long and haven’t offended anyone. Maybe they mistook me for someone else," Tang Yue vaguely replied, planning to get the conversation over with.
Tang Yue and Lian Qingqing didn’t get along. After exchanging a few words, they went their separate ways.
Lian Qingqing did not want to introduce Tang Yue, but Xie Ziyue asked curiously, "Qingqing, are you and Tang Yue classmates by any chance?"
"No," Lian Qingqing shook her head. Feeling a bit awkward, she took a moment before saying, "Truth be told, Tang Yue is my sister."
"Sister?" Xie Ziyue was puzzled.
Apart from those few cousins, where would Lian Family have another sister?
He had met all of those cousins of the Lian Family.
"She’s my dad’s..." Lian Qingqing paused, then said, "She’s my dad’s daughter, and she’s older than me, so she’s my sister."
"I see," Xie Ziyue nodded.
Lian Qingqing added, "But although she’s not much older than me, she’s already married."
"I know, it’s Meng Siyu. He also knows my brother," Xie Ziyue said this and holding Lian Qingqing’s hand, he said, "Qingqing, should we talk to Uncle Lian and Aunt Lian about us, too?"
Lian Qingqing said shyly, "Brother Zi Yue, I’ll listen to you."
*
After separating from Tang Yue, Lian Qingqing truly opened my eyes. Lian Qingqing and Xie Ziyue are a couple, and by the looks of Lian Qingqing’s shy demeanor, she must genuinely like Xie Ziyue.
However, whom Lian Qingqing liked and wanted to be with was just a curiosity to Tang Yue, and she promptly put it out of her mind.
Lian Qingqing came to Jin City originally because of a jewelry branch store, but because of Xie Ziyue, she returned to Sea City, this time bringing Xie Ziyue back to the Lian Family home.
Old Sir Lian, Lian He, and Lian Qingyang were all waiting at home.
Lian and Xie Families were well-matched in terms of social status. The two of them were in love, and the families’ union through marriage could not be more perfect.
In just a few short days, Lian He took the lead in discussing engagement matters with the Xie Family.
Before the engagement, Lian He called Lian Qingqing to the office.
"Daddy." Lian Qingqing felt these days were like a dream. After marrying Brother Zi Yue, she would still be the adored daughter of both grandfather and father.
Lian He looked at Lian Qingqing; her brows and eyes were very attractive. In his memory, she had always been compliant and sensible. With Xiang Yazhi involved, other than financial support, Lian He had not offered much else.
Now, Lian Qingqing was about to get engaged. Lian He said, "Qingqing has grown up, becoming more and more beautiful."
