Chapter 1845: Wouldn’t That Be Weird?

What haven’t been used, what degeneration, what constant grind…

Xu Tingting was thoroughly embarrassed; she didn’t even know why she felt so agitated. She covered Chu Yao’s mouth with her hand: “Stop, stop, I don’t know anything!”

Chu Yao, still thinking she hadn’t scared the little girl enough, pushed her hand away and added, “If you knew about this, wouldn’t that be strange.”

Xu Tingting raised both hands in surrender.

Why did she have to mention it?

Brother Mo is still here!

She instinctively glanced over at Mo Tingshen.

The man knew the young girl was embarrassed; it indeed was inappropriate for him to be standing there as a grown man. He naturally took out a pack of cigarettes, saying, “I’m going out for a smoke.”

“Get me some small cakes while you’re at it,” Chu Yao said.

“You,” Mo Tingshen circled behind her and tapped her, “Take it easy, don’t scare her too much.”

Chu Yao winked at him.

Watching this, Mo Tingshen felt a ripple in his heart. He lit a cigarette before even stepping out of the private room and took a deep drag.

Now that there were no men in the room, Chu Yao wasn’t ready to settle down. Just as she was about to speak, a voice came from the side: “Don’t insist on learning from Xu Qingbo, just let Xu Shu learn. Your family is interesting, protecting your own but pushing the looks to others.”

“That’s not it!”

Xu Tingting quickly explained: “My second brother originally didn’t want to learn. He was sick for a few years when he was young, always taking medicine. After his health recovered, he would vomit at the smell of medicine. It’s not that our family is protecting him. When my grandfather’s family came, he’d hide first. I learned it for a while, but I couldn’t recognize many medicines. No matter how many times Grandpa taught me, I’d forget by the next time. They saw I really had no talent and gave up. But Brother Shu is different; he truly has talent.”

Lu Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows, “Well, they certainly have keen eyes. The achievements Xu Shu has today are ones many top medical experts can’t achieve even in their old age.”

His hands are beyond value.

Even his accomplishments are immeasurable.

Though Lu Zhenzhen’s earlier words weren’t very nice, as long as she praised Xu Shu, Xu Tingting would immediately be happy.

Chu Yao wanted to tease her. As soon as she opened her mouth and before making a sound, Lu Zhenzhen interjected again: “Your brother didn’t eat much. He gets hungry after surgery.”

“I know; I’ll pack something later and bring it to him.”

Chu Yao took a deep breath, intent on speaking, but Lu Zhenzhen beat her to it, “Don’t pack the leftovers. I’ll have the kitchen make a separate serving. I haven’t been drinking; I’ll drop you off later.”

Xu Tingting responded crisply: “Okay, thanks, Sister Zhenzhen.”

“No problem.”

Chu Yao tried several times but couldn’t get a word in. The topic got more serious, and her urge to tease the little one now seemed out of place, making her instantly annoyed.

“Lu Zhenzhen, enough already. I don’t usually see you this talkative. You just love to butt in, don’t you?”

Lu Zhenzhen knew all too well her brazen nature and glared at her, “Shut up, after all these years, still can’t talk properly.”

“You’re the talker; you’re good with words, always with figurative bullets in your mouth, ready to attack anyone.”

Lu Zhenzhen huffed: “Not everyone, just depends on who.”

Fuming, Chu Yao slammed down her drink.

In a double room at a certain hotel.

Song Jin pushed the door open. Li Jiaojiao was lying in bed, talking on the phone with a friend, speaking without holding back and with a bit of a pitiful flattery.

Song Jin didn’t need to hear to know what the person on the other end was saying.
