Shen Yishan withdrew her gaze, pursed her lips, and spoke softly, but her spoiled air was unmistakable: "The Jin sisters are from the same compound as my family, but not from the same system. My younger sister, Jin Yuhong in the pink dress, and I have been incompatible since childhood."

“It’s more than just that our horoscopes don’t match,” Lin Xiangnan said, her words coming out like a machine gun. “Why don’t you just say that she’s been clinging to Gu Jinzhou like a puppy since she was a child?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yishan's face turned pale instantly, then flushed bright red.

She stiffened her neck, her voice becoming shrill: "So what if I like him! I'm Jinzhou's fiancée!"

"Yes, yes, yes, my fiancée." Lin Xiangnan rolled her eyes dramatically, showing no mercy whatsoever. "But we haven't even registered our marriage yet, and someone's already trying to steal her away. Didn't you see her scheming? She's even followed me all the way to this backwater! She's practically announcing it to the whole world!"

Lin Xiangnan was right.

Ruan Tang chewed the meat with relish, feeling quite pleased with herself.

The Jin family is really going all out; they're clearly here to poach our employees.

Unfortunately, Shen Yishan, being so naive and innocent, thought that a marriage contract was an impenetrable fortress.

She looked up and gazed at Gu Jinzhou in the distance with great interest.

He was good-looking, tall and thin, with a cool and aloof demeanor.

But Ruan Tang could see clearly that beneath his cold eyes lay unconcealed disgust and resignation at being dragged into this mess.

Then think of Jin Yuhong, a woman who was reborn and whose soul reeks of filth. She's not someone like Shen Yishan, a hothouse flower, can handle.

Out of consideration for the entire brigade, Ruan Tang swallowed the food in her mouth and spoke as if by accident.

Her voice was soft and sweet, as if she were asking a casual question.

"Sister Xiang Nan, I remember... when you bought those houses, didn't you sign documents with the brigade and put your red fingerprints on them?"

The topic changed so quickly that Lin Xiangnan was taken aback: "Yes! We signed the documents, put our fingerprints on them, and even registered them at the commune. Our respective houses are registered in our own names, and our household registrations are there too, so what?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Ruan Tang nodded meaningfully and buried her head in her food.

Yan Yu looked at his little girl's sly, fox-like appearance, and could hardly contain his amusement.

He didn't say anything, but turned on the kettle and held the enamel cup to her lips.

Ruan Tang took a sip of water from his hand, moistened her throat, and smacked her lips contentedly.

On the other side, Lin Xiangnan didn't react at first.

But she was quick-witted; after shoveling down a couple of mouthfuls of rice, she suddenly stopped!

The steamed bun in her hand fell back into the bowl with a "thud".

His eyes flashed like two sharp blades, shooting straight at Shen Yishan beside him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Yishan felt uneasy under her gaze and looked completely bewildered.

Lin Xiangnan ignored her and instead scrutinized her intently, asking slowly and deliberately, "Yishan, are the documents for that house in your hands or in Gu Jinzhou's?"

Shen Yishan looked at her like she was an idiot: "Do you think I'm stupid? No matter how much I love him, I know that money and houses should be kept in my own hands!"

Looking at Shen Yishan's angry face, Lin Xiangnan retorted righteously: "To cry and whine like Lin Daiyu every day for someone who doesn't love you, isn't that stupid?"

Ruan Tang nodded inwardly and looked up at Shen Yishan's face. Although she was still angry and sad, she seemed to be more resilient than before.

She raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Is it because she's been constantly criticized by Lin Xiangnan that she's developed immunity to it?

Shen Yishan's next words made Ruan Tang realize that this guy was truly immune.

"You're just jealous of me! Jealous that I've been engaged to Brother Jinzhou since we were kids!"

"Yue—" Lin Xiangnan exaggeratedly gagged, "Come on, please! A man who doesn't love me, unless he kneels down with a mountain of gold begging me, I wouldn't even want to look at him." (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
