"Aunt Mo, you really misunderstood, there’s nothing else going on between me and... Uncle Siyu. After all, Siyu is going to be a wealthy tycoon, rich and all that, and I’m just an ordinary woman. I better not hold others back." Tang Yue explained anxiously, aware that Siyu’s future held fortunes she didn’t wish to complicate.
"Okay, okay, okay." Mo Xiaolin saw how hurriedly Tang Yue explained and felt a sudden pang in her heart. Could she have really gotten it wrong?
With a quick thought, Mo Xiaolin immediately said, "Xiao Yue, you’re Siyu’s classmate’s niece, so let’s interact like friends from now on. Looking at you, I feel a sense of warmth and just can’t help wanting to be close to you. Why, don’t you like your aunt?"
Mo Xiaolin thought to herself that regardless of whether there is currently a romantic involvement, or if, as Tang Yue said, it’s all a misunderstanding, she had to turn the fake into reality.
"There’s nothing like that. Auntie, your smile is so warm, I feel close to you too." Tang Yue replied with a smile, feeling a sense of regret inside her. Aunt Mo had been so wonderful in her previous life, how could something have happened to her?
"That’s good then, Xiao Yue. I only have that brat Siyu, and, you know, I’m particularly fond of girls. It’s very close to Number One High School here. When you have time, feel free to come over to my place." Mo Xiaolin invited her warmly.
"Sure." Tang Yue responded with a smile.
Mo Xiaolin didn’t harp on about the assumed relationship between Tang Yue and Mo Siyu, instead engaging in casual conversation, making sure Tang Yue didn’t feel pressured and bringing them closer.
Tang Yue had been nervous the whole time, afraid that Mo Xiaolin would keep bringing the subject up, but when she saw that Mo Xiaolin had dropped it, thinking she had believed her, Tang Yue also felt relieved.
She herself wanted to befriend Aunt Mo. If something happened to Aunt Mo in the future, she might have some insight. Who knows, Aunt Mo might be able to avoid the tragedy of her previous life.
Mo Xiaolin enthusiastically offered to have Tang Yue stay for dinner, but she declined. Around five o’clock, Tang Yue left the Mo Family.
As soon as she stepped out, she ran into Cai Wanwan.
"Oh, Xiao Yue, you know Aunt Mo? How come I’ve never seen you here before?" Cai Wanwan looked at Tang Yue with curiosity. She had bought a lot of clothes like the ones Tang Yue wore last time, and whenever she wore them, she always received a lot of compliments, even from her husband, who remarked on how good she looked in her recent outfits.
"My uncle is classmates with Aunt Mo’s son." Tang Yue explained like it was a tongue-twister.
She smiled and asked, "Sister Cai, is this your home?"
"My father-in-law’s place. You see, I brought my son over today." Cai Wanwan replied with a smile, then a thought struck her and she asked, "You just met my father-in-law, right? The one with white hair but very vivid eyes?"
"Mr. Hu?" Tang Yue said uncertainly, recalling that Aunt Mo had referred to him as Mr. Hu, so it should be right to call him Grandpa Hu?
"That’s right, my father-in-law’s last name is Hu." Cai Wanwan smiled, thinking about what her father-in-law had said just now. It used to be that Xiao Yue was expected to be Aunt Mo’s future daughter-in-law, but now it seemed there was no relation at all.
Cai Wanwan didn’t press further, instead saying, "Xiao Yue, the clothes you made for me last time were great. I was actually thinking of having you make some more."
"Sure, you can come to the store tomorrow to see if there’s anything you like." Tang Yue invited her warmly and with a smile.
Right after Tang Yue left, Cai Wanwan made her way to Mo Xiaolin’s home. She got straight to the point, asking, "Aunt Mo, what’s the deal with Xiao Yue and your Siyu?"
