Song Tan did say, “Feel free to do so,” but it didn’t mean this.
Moreover, Shen Yin’s change is too abrupt.
Song Tan knew he had been pretending before, but at least he should give her some time to react, let her adapt to him being her ‘husband.’
Now, seeing Shen Yin’s wolf-like gaze, her heart trembled.
Seeing her like this, Shen Yin knew he couldn’t continue.
He twitched his lips, concealed his emotions, and when he raised his head again, he had returned to his calm and composed demeanor.
It’s okay, he has the patience to wait.
“No rush, we have plenty of time to play together.”
Shen Yin’s lips curled up, and he pinched her face with his fingers.
Song Tan : “…”
Now that Shen Yin has confronted the Huo family, it’s naturally impossible to idle away like before.
He arranged for someone to protect Song Tan on this side.
“Focus on preparing for your exams, don’t think too much about other things.”
Obviously, Shen Yin is still angry.
He doesn’t want to look at her, but even though he’s busy, he still needs to settle things here before leaving.
This person… so stubborn, yet kind of cute.
Shen Yin had his back to Song Tan, and seeing her silent for a while, he frowned and glanced back at her.
At this moment, Song Tan, too, didn’t know what he was thinking as he looked at her.
Shen Yin’s lips moved slightly, wanting to ask her what she was thinking, but then he remembered how carefree she was, letting him go play with other girls…
“When are you coming back?”
Song Tan seemed oblivious to his anger, still asking like before, like a gentle wife asking about her husband’s return time.
Shen Yin was both indulgent and somewhat impatient.
He frowned and said, “I’m not sure, you don’t need to wait for me, someone will come to take care of you later.”
Song Tan obediently said, “Oh.”
Shen Yin : “…”
—Forget it, there’s no point in arguing with her.
He didn’t say anything more, turned around, and left directly.
After Shen Yin left, Song Tan glanced at the arrangement he made.
This time she saw Shen Yin arranging it with her own eyes, so she saw clearly how he managed to bring a group of people into the house and not be easily discovered.
Hmm… if this were ancient times, he’d definitely be a martial arts master.
Although having more people in the house made her somewhat uncomfortable, these people were here to protect her, so she sat outside on a stone bench with a book, trying to adapt to their presence.
Her every move was reported to Shen Yin.
After listening, Shen Yin remained silent for a moment before laughing again.
This is something Song Tan could definitely handle.
He had just worried that she might feel uncomfortable with so many people in the house.
Totally unnecessary worry.
Song Tan could calmly share a bed with him at night, not to mention during the day with a group of people protecting her.
Shen Yin laughed.
But there was a hint of sarcasm in his laughter.
She really… no matter what the situation, she could adapt well.
“You’re saying that Song Tan and Shen Yin moved out of the Huo’s mansion?”
Song Jiaojiao was originally going back to the Huo’s mansion to get something and also to give Huo Yanlin a way out.
But she didn’t expect that when she returned, she saw Shen Yin and Song Tan standing among a group of menacing-looking people in black, then walked out of the Huo’s mansion openly.
Seeing this, Song Jiaojiao didn’t know what was going on, so she didn’t go back to the Huo’s mansion and went straight back to her own.
“You think they’ve been kidnapped?”
Song Jiaojiao found the sight of those black-clothed people quite intimidating.
“In broad daylight, directly kidnapping two people into the Huo family mansion, is that possible?”
Although Song Zhiwen and his wife weren’t very clever, they weren’t as imaginative as Song Jiaojiao.
“Go and find out if something has happened.”
They temporarily withdrew from the Huo family.
One reason was because Huo Yanlin had gone too far, and the other was because the Huo family had been restless recently.
Although Song Zhiwen and his wife weren’t very clever and didn’t earn much money, they were still quite sensitive to certain things.
Otherwise, with their brains, they wouldn’t have gotten this far today.
Song Zhiwen went to find out the news, while Song Jiaojiao went to the old mansion.
She had just heard that Song Tan and Shen Yin had returned to the old house.
She had sold half of the house… and hadn’t told Song Tan about it yet.
If Song Tan knew about it, Song Tan would probably be furious, right?
Song Jiaojiao was a little scared.
When she sold it, she was just feeling angry, but after selling it, she regretted it.
But when she tried to contact the buyer again, she couldn’t reach them.
With a heavy heart, Song Jiaojiao arrived at the old mansion.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she froze for a moment.
How come she feels this yard is so cool?
Song Jiaojiao rubbed her arms and, seeing the greenery shading the yard, thought it must be because of the plants, so she didn’t dwell on it.
She walked while surveying.
It was obvious the yard had been renovated. Since the old master passed away, the yard had never been this tidy and clean.
With a puzzled expression, Song Jiaojiao crossed the yard and arrived at the small garden.
There she saw Song Tan wrapped in a blanket, sitting on a stone bench reading a book.
Song Jiaojiao was initially stunned, then somewhat incredulous.
It had been a while since she last saw Song Tan, and… the change was significant.
Her skin remained fair, but not as pale as before, rather a kind of rosy fair complexion.
The biggest change was in her figure.
That waist… clearly seemed to have gained some flesh, yet why did it appear thinner?
Song Jiaojiao bit her lip, feeling somewhat resentful as she glanced at her own waist.
She had gained quite a bit of weight recently and was struggling hard to lose it.
Why couldn’t she have a figure like Song Tan’s?
Song Tan had known Song Jiaojiao was coming.
But Song Tan ignored her, waiting for her to come over on her own.
By the time Song Tan finished reading a page, Song Jiaojiao was still standing there. Curiously, Song Tan raised her eyes and looked at Song Jiaojiao.
Seeing Song Jiaojiao’s envy and jealousy, Song Tan raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Song Tan : ?
“Did you use some skincare products?”
Song Tan : “…”
“Your skin does look much better.”
Song Jiaojiao had already forgotten why she had come, determinedly asking Song Tan for skincare products.
Song Tan pressed her temple.
Talking to a fool was indeed difficult.
“And you seem to have gained weight, right?” Song Jiaojiao stared at Song Tan’s waist, looking and looking again. “But why does gaining weight make your waist look even thinner?”
Song Tan could tell Song Jiaojiao was genuinely asking.
“Because, the waist is emphasized.”
Song Jiaojiao : “What do you mean by emphasized?”
Song Tan remained calm : “Some areas become larger, making the waist appear thinner, right?”
Song Jiaojiao suddenly understood, her gaze shifting from the waist to the upper body.
Then she glanced at herself.
Song Jiaojiao instantly felt disheartened.
It was so unfair, heaven was truly unfair.
They gave Song Tan a slender waist, so why did they have to give her a big chest?
Darn it!
“Are you here just to discuss this issue with me?”
Seeing that Song Jiaojiao had forgotten her purpose for coming, Song Tan reminded her.
After this reminder, Song Jiaojiao came back to her senses and remembered why she had come.
“Why did you move here? Couldn’t stand it at the Huo family anymore?”
Song Tan didn’t deny it and admitted directly, “Yeah.”
“Why? And what about those men in black?”
Song Jiaojiao looked around the courtyard, but there was only Song Tan.
As for the hidden henchmen, she didn’t find a single one.
Song Tan glanced at her silly cousin.
“Have you made up with Huo Yanlin?”
Mentioning Huo Yanlin, Song Jiaojiao felt irritated, “No.”
Since their argument, he hadn’t made a single call or sent a single WeChat message.
“That’s your fault.”
Song Jiaojiao : ???
“How is it my fault?”
Clearly it was Huo Yanlin who went too far!
“Think about it, after getting married, are you a bit too sensible?”
Of course!
Before getting married, she wasn’t this sensible even in front of her own parents!
“You’re just too sensible. Children who are too sensible won’t get candies.”
Song Jiaojiao found Song Tan’s words reasonable.
But she still had some doubts: “Song Tan, have you ever had a quarrel with Shen Yin too?”
Those two are usually very affectionate.
Would Song Tan quarrel with Shen Yin?
“Why wouldn’t I? Having an occasional quarrel can help strengthen the relationship.”
Song Jiaojiao nodded as if she understood.
She completely forgot that she had come to Song Tan to gather information and ended up chatting with Song Tan.
Rarely, Song Taan didn’t scold Song Jiaojiao, and instead taught Song Jiaojiao quite a few secrets of ‘married couple’s love.’
Song Jiaojiao listened with relish.
When she left, she even felt a bit reluctant to part.
Song Tan smiled faintly and waved her hand.
Although Song Jiaojiao was a bit silly and naive, bothering Huo Yanlin a bit was still quite enjoyable.
If not, what if male and female leads really work together to overcome the difficulties?
She can’t do anything else, but adding a bit of difficulty for them is still possible.
[Host, are you doing something bad?]
007, though retired now, still has a duty, which is to supervise its Host from not doing anything bad.
Previously, although its task of transforming the supporting female character was completed, the main system still doubted the task data for Song Tan.
If Song Tan continues to do things that a malicious supporting female character would do, then the previous task will be directly judged as a failure and she will need to be reformed again.
[How could that be, I’m clearly doing good deeds.]
Song Tan’s face remained unchanged. [I just taught my own sister a bit about how to get along with her husband, is there anything wrong with that?]
007’s data ran for a moment. [No, there isn’t.]
[That’s right then.]
Clearly, she’s just a warm-hearted person doing good deeds.
How could she be a malicious supporting female character?
[Oh, right, I need the medicine.]
As soon as Song Tan spoke, 007 began beeping.
[Don’t pretend, even as a Retired Version, the coins aren’t locked.]
With coins, exchanges can be made.
Although the reward pool has turned gray, 007 must have a way to help her get the medicine.
[If I die, you’ll be in trouble too.]
007 certainly didn’t want its Host to die.
Although its Host doesn’t follow the rules and likes to trick it, after fighting side by side with its Host for so long, it still hopes its Host lives a long and healthy life and enjoys a wonderful retirement.
“Mainly because you don’t have enough money.” The system stated a cruel fact. “You’re not in a mission now, so you can’t accept tasks, you can only exchange with real life money.”
The exchange rate between real-life money and system coins is 1000:1.
In other words, one thousand yuan for one coin.
It’s not much different from robbery.
[With your current situation, you haven’t earned much money.]
Song Tan : “…”
The few million she has now is the money she got from selling prescriptions to Song Jiaojiao.
She was planning to use this money to buy the Song family’s old mansion.
But now, the old mansion has been taken by Shen Yin.
She’s not in a hurry to buy the house now.
But the money she can exchange for coins is limited…
Shen Yin has already confronted the Huo family, and she doesn’t know if Shen Yin can win.
If they can’t win… they won’t starve, right?
She wonders if Shen Yin has any money on hand.
After some thought, Song Tan realized that there were places to spend money everywhere, and she really couldn’t afford to use the money to buy medicine at this time.
Song Tan sighed softly.
It seems that she still has to work hard to earn money.
“What is she doing?”
Shen Yin is quite busy.
Busy creating loopholes for the Huo family to keep them occupied.
It was originally a pretty cool thing, but whenever his mind was idle, he thought of Song Tan.
Song Tan must be quite eager to see this scene.
Although he didn’t know why she hated the Huo family so much, as long as they had the same goal, they were on the same boat.
“She’s playing on the computer.”
The person arranged by him beside Song Tan reported.
“Playing on the computer?”
Song Tan doesn’t play games, so she must be looking up something on the computer.
Shen Yin tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
Once, twice…
Finally, he picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Song Tan.
Song Tan was diligently typing away.
Her last book had already finished, the data was okay, but she didn’t earn much money.
Because the end-of-the-world theme is niche, the audience is relatively small, so there are fewer readers.
She is also a newcomer, able to earn a few thousand yuan, which is actually considered a good performance in this industry.
Song Tan was still not quite satisfied, so during this period, she researched again.
This time, she planned to start another book with a popular theme.
She had already figured it out, a theme that young girls nowadays like to read: domineering CEO!
She was brainstorming when her family’s domineering CEO sent her a message:
[Have you eaten?]
Author’s Note:
Song Tan : Really domineering.
