274 No Ragrets (1/2)
That one wait was one hour thanks to the traffic jam, full parking lot, and a large detour. Eventually, Ye Shuang found a parking space in the underground parking lot of a mall and had to walk all the way.
This was such a tragedy, and in that time, Little Brother Ye's emotion transformed from the initial anxiety to nervousness to finally complaint. With impatience, he asked his two buddies to join him at the café to chew on snacks and sip on drinks. Therefore, when Ye Shuang and Anthony arrived, they saw three boys enjoying themselves, laughing and chatting.
Completely no sign of regret… Ye Shuang sat down with her brow raised. ”You seem to be enjoying a great time, huh?”
Little Brother Ye had completely forgotten that he was awaiting judgement from Ye Shuang. When he saw Ye Shuang, he even had the audacity to complain. ”Sis, you're so slow. Do you know that we have something else to do? If there's nothing else, we'll… Ouch! Why did you hit me‽”
”If I really wanted to hit you, do you really think you'd still be alive‽” Ye Shuang cracked her knuckles and warned him. Little Brother Ye instantly remembered that his sister had the ability to punch a hole in the wall with her bare hands.
”Sis, forgive me!” Little Brother Ye apologized instantly and put up his paws in surrender.
…
After the temporary detour, the group finally went back to the early question—why did Little Brother Ye lie to get money from Ye Shuang?
”So, tell me, why did you lie to me?” Ye Shuang tapped the table to get everyone's attention. ”From the looks of it, it doesn't seem like you've acquired some expensive habit. Also, what have you bought? Let me see… potatoes, apples, meat…”
These are all daily products. Are they going to help the poor?
Ye Shuang wanted to mock them, but she suddenly remembered the words that Little Brother Ye's friend had said earlier, and she silently swallowed back the words. As she expected, before Little Brother Ye could say anything, the shy boy explained, ”Sister Shuang, actually, Xiao Feng asked for money from you because of me…”
”It has nothing to do with anyone!” Little Brother Ye finally thought that he had had enough. Therefore, compelled by justice, he stepped forward and pounded his scrawny chest. ”It's me who…”
”Shut up, it's not your turn!” Ye Shuang grabbed the pudding on the table and shoved it into Little Brother Ye's mouth. ”I'm here to know about the process, not to see you guys shouldering the guilt for each other!”
She hated this kind of story where they were each trying to help one another, and she would fail to get the main point.
Anthony grabbed Little Brother Ye's head and giggled. ”Your sister is very feral. Don't toy with her.”
Is this foreigner's Chinese is not good or too good? The crowd moved their gaze to Anthony before quickly moving away. Without the interruption from Little Brother Ye, the boys started to explain Little Brother Ye's lies.
The boy had a brother-in-law, one that had not signed the registration with his sister. The main reason that they did not have legal validity was because of the disapproval from his mother.
The brother-in-law had graduated from a normal university and came from a normal farmer's background. After graduation, he had gotten a normal job. Since the sister came from a good university, she had a good job and good looks.
When the brother-in-law came to visit for the first time, the mother had asked three questions, and they had completely rejected the man. They first asked about his job. Next, they asked about his family's professions. Finally, they asked where he planned to buy a home after marriage.
