58 The Brat Is Back (1/2)

”Because?” My patience was starting to run out with Tang Liang saying things halfway slowly. ”Just tell me everything in one go, or else you'll kill me by making me all anxious!”

”I have you down as 'Aunty'!” Tang Liang embarrassedly admit, covering his eyes with his hand as though Yun Anong was there to witness his confession.

He never wanted Yun Anong to find out what he put her down as on his contact list.

”Awww, you did what?” I squealed after taking a few seconds to process what he just said.

How adorable of Tang Liang! I always knew he acknowledges me as his aunt, but his pride was way too high to apparently say it out loud. I can imagine how his face looks like right now. It'd be red as a cherry if it were not currently covered with black ink.

”Ahem, anyway I feel that you should still have my older brother investigate this issue. Prepare for damage control,” I advise.

My gut feeling was telling me it wasn't because Tang Liang put my contact name down as 'Aunty.' It seemed odd that Tang Liang's 'friend' will contact me out of everyone. Tang Liang had me on his contact list as 'Aunty,' then it wouldn't be strange for him to have my brothers' contact name be something similar.

But obviously, I wasn't one hundred percent sure either. I could just be overthinking for all I know. However, one thing I learned in life is that I will rather be distrustful of others than let them get the opportunity to betray me.

Seeing that Yun Anong had calmed down and was talking to Tang Liang like normal. Mu Yi laid down next to her and prop himself up with one arm.

”Are you feeling better now?”

Mu Yi reached out his hand to touch her face. He wanted to check she wasn't running a fever or injured anywhere else. A moment ago her temperature was skyrocketing but all the sudden it dropped to normal.

When he stroked her face, he made sure to touch the side Shu Meiying had slapped. He'll make sure to pay Shu Meiying back ten folds, but he's going to let Yun Anong get in on the fun first. It doesn't matter if it was him or Yun Anong who deals with Shu Meiying, but he knows Shu Meiying was done for.

”Who was that...” Tang Liang pressed the phone closer to his ear. Hoping to hear the other person's voice again to better identify them.

”It's CEO Mu,” I sat up stretching my arms and legs. ”Remember the meeting I have with them today?”

”Still!” Tang Liang exclaimed, how can a meeting take longer than three hours long? What are they doing there, throwing a party to celebrate the collaboration?

”What it's only probably nine...” I moved the phone away from my face to look at the time. Instead, I saw many many missed calls from my best friend. Ah, crap! ”I'm late! I'm late!”

”He's going to kill me!” I mumble to myself while I scramble to grab my belongings off the counter. ”Later.”

I got rid of Tang Liang to have Mu Yi blocking my pathway.
