Chapter 1125 - Exhausted (1/2)

Xia Yanran had always been a responsible person who owned her actions. She was the one at fault when she threw the water on Yi Ran’s face in a fit of anger.

Pursing her lips, she said to Tang Chao, “I’ll apologize to Yi Ran later.”

Tang Chao was not a person who would not let this matter go. Seeing Xia Yanran owning up to her actions, the familiar smile appeared on his face. “I’m also to blame. I couldn’t find a suitable house recently and Brother Xiao is loyal and said that it’s big here so he asked me to stay here temporarily. I didn’t expect this kind of misunderstanding to happen this morning. Sister-in-law, don’t take it to heart. I’m a straightforward person, I’m not defending anyone, I just think that Yi Ran’s not wrong.”

Xia Yanran nodded thoughtfully. “I know your character.”

“Brother Xiao is still asleep. His room is the first one on the right at the end of the corridor.”

Xia Yanran hummed and went over with her suitcase.

After Xia Yanran entered Xiao Yi’s room, Tang Chao knocked on Yi Ran’s door. “a.s.sistant Yi, have you finished changing?”

Yi Ran opened the door.

Looking at her face that was still tear-stained, he looked carefully at her and found that her fair neck was slightly red. “You injured your neck?”

Yi Ran shook her head and turned away, avoiding Tang Chao’s gaze.

Tang Chao went up to her, frowning. “Were you scalded by that cup of water Sister-in-law threw at you?”

Yi Ran lowered her eyes, her eyelashes that were wet with tears looked even more dark and long. She said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Sister Yanran didn’t do it on purpose. Let’s forget about this. I’m also not scalded that badly. I’ll apply some medicine when I go back later and it’ll heal in a few days.”

She was so delicate and there was such a large patch of red on her neck. He felt pained looking at it and she still said it was not serious!

After interacting more with Yi Ran at work, Tang Chao found that although she was young and could be considered a workaholic. She was not afraid of hards.h.i.+p, was smart, willing to learn and she was able to accomplish anything handed to her extremely well.

Although Tang Chao was usually careless and casual, he admired girls who were smart and willing to endure hards.h.i.+p.

Even though Yi Ran was just an a.s.sistant, she would not be shy when there was a need for her to entertain clients. She would drink how much the clients wanted her to drink, was dedicated to her work, but was slightly silly.

He could see how she was doing the best for the company.

She was pretty and a lot of male colleagues in the company were interested in her, but she never got too close with them and focused on her work. This was what Tang Chao admired about her.

Tang Chao frowned. “It was a cup of hot water?”

Yi Ran bit her lip. “Young Master Tang, it’s really nothing. Don’t tell Brother Xiao Yi about this, Actually, I know how miserable Sister Yanran feels. She has her difficulty so she is sensitive and didn’t believe Brother Xiao Yi…”

Tang Chao raised his eyebrows. “What is it?”

“Stop asking. I’m not badly scalded so just forget about it!”

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll go tell Brother Xiao right now and ask him to decide what is right.” Tang Chao pretended to leave.

Yi Ran pulled him back hurriedly and looked at him with a troubled expression. “Don’t go bother Brother Xiao Yi for such a small matter.”

“Then are you going to tell me about it?”

Yi Ran sighed. “Then you must promise not to let Brother Xiao Yi know and can’t tell anyone.”

Looking at Yi Ran, who looked like she was about to cry if he did not agree, Tang Chao raised his right hand. “Okay, I promise.”

“When Brother Xiao Yi and Sister Yanran went to visit the Old Madam, the Royal Hospital’s doctor, Doctor Wei was also with the Old Madam and when she saw Sister Yanran, she told the Old Madam about how Sister Yanran can’t get pregnant. I overheard their conversation accidentally.”

Tang Chao looked incredulous.
