Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Pushed to the Limit (Third Update)

"Really?" Tang Yue responded with a smile, not saying anything else.

Bai Qing continued to talk about how much she missed her grandmother, with Tang Yue standing by, wearing a light smile and not saying much.

Finally, Bai Qing asked, "Tang Yue, is it possible for me to pay to rent this place? I just need one room."

Bai Qing looked expectant and pleading, with her eyes full of innocence and harmlessness, it seemed difficult for anyone to refuse her.

"No," Tang Yue refused, unclear of Bai Qing’s intentions, and moreover, Qin Anyu had been constantly reminding her about Meng Yanzhi’s situation, so naturally, Tang Yue dared not relax at all on this matter.

"Why?" Bai Qing asked innocently, "We are all students from Jinghua University, we have the same classes, and there are so many rooms here, I just want to rent one, I won’t disturb you."

Bai Qing looked at Tang Yue sincerely and earnestly.

Originally, Bai Qing truly thought that Tang Yue was the type to easily trust others, but it was only at this moment that Bai Qing realized, although Tang Yue seemed gentle, she was very firm about certain things.

"Sorry, this place is rented by my friend, I cannot sublet it to you," Tang Yue explained, "Besides, although there are vacant rooms here, this is also a workplace, and if you were to live here, I’m afraid we would be the ones disturbing you."

"Of course, if you occasionally want to come by to reminisce about your grandmother, you are very welcome." Tang Yue emphasized the word ’occasionally’, her tone very firm, implying that occasional visits were fine, but living here long-term was out of the question.

"Tang Yue, let me reintroduce myself, my name is Bai Qing, Mo Siyu’s distant... cousin." Bai Qing clapped her hands, withdrew her smile, and looked seriously at Tang Yue. The previous innocent and naïve appearance instantly transformed, her eyes becoming inscrutable.

"Distant cousin?" Tang Yue looked at Bai Qing skeptically.

Bai Qing gave a brief explanation, "It just so happens I am coming to Jinghua for my studies, and Mo Siyu said there’s a place here, so I thought of living with you and keeping you company."

"Wait a moment," Tang Yue asked Bai Qing to stay in the yard for a while, then went inside the house to call Mo Siyu.

It must have been Tang Yue’s luck, as the call went through immediately. Tang Yue inquired about Bai Qing’s situation, and Mo Siyu confirmed her explanation.

Tang Yue still felt something was off, but couldn’t quite put her finger on it. Does the Mo Family have a distant relative with the surname Bai? Why hadn’t Aunt Mo mentioned it before?

Bai Qing cleared her throat and said, "Tang Yue, I just wanted to test if you were easy-going. You don’t mind, do you? Coming to Jinghua for school took much effort for me." Indeed, crafting this false identity and getting Jinghua University to acknowledge it was not easy at all.

And indeed, it had taken much effort.

Since it was someone brought by Mo Siyu, Tang Yue naturally agreed and cleaned up a room for Bai Qing.

"There’s no quilt inside..." Tang Yue looked at the bare room, because it was unplanned for a guest room, so the room was empty and had nothing.

"No worries, I’ll go buy one." Bai Qing left in a flash.

Tang Yue was cleaning up this room at home; it was usually used to store fabric, which was now moved to another room. She took up a rag and broom and began to clean up.

When Bai Qing came in carrying a quilt and two large suitcases, Tang Yue stepped forward to help and couldn’t help asking, "Your suitcase is so heavy."
