Chapter 1014: Don't Even Think About Staying Another Day

~7 min read 1,312 words

"How could you bully anyone? I was just asking; as long as you didn't, it's fine. Besides, she's moving out soon anyway."

Li Xiao answered fluently, a meaningful look flashing in the depths of his eyes.

She naturally wouldn't bully anyone, but she would pay others back in their own coin.

So...

Luo Wanwan must have done something.

But that probably didn't matter anymore.

"Right! She's moving out soon anyway!"

Cai Xiaotang's voice pulled Li Xiao's attention back.

She felt good whenever she thought about this, her face practically written with happiness; as she spoke, she happily prepared to jump off Li Xiao.

"Where are you going?"

Li Xiao hooked her back with a casual motion, forcibly trapping her in his embrace, and directly, deliberately pinched Cai Xiaotang's waist in an ambiguous way.

"Didn't you just ask someone to close the door? Could it be... that you didn't want to do something?"

"This is the study! Can you be any more of a beast?"

The moment Cai Xiaotang heard that deliberately lowered voice, she instinctively sensed danger and struggled to escape, only to have her chin hooked by Li Xiao again.

Her exclamation was completely blocked.

Her body softened instantly along with it.

In the quiet room, only ambiguous, soft sounds remained.

Evening—Cai Xiaotang rubbed her stomach and walked downstairs.

She had originally intended to find something to eat to tide her over, but she hadn't expected that as soon as she went downstairs, the table outside was already almost full.

"This is..."

Cai Xiaotang was somewhat surprised, then glanced over and saw Luo Wanwan in the kitchen, busy with something, seemingly cooking.

"Madam."

Lao San walked over from the side, and seeing Cai Xiaotang's confusion, he hurriedly explained: "Wanwan said she's moving out soon and wanted to have a meal with everyone; it's rare for everyone to be here these past few days..."

"So that's how it is."

Cai Xiaotang nodded and glanced toward the kitchen again, saying nothing more, though she gave a cold, disdainful snort in her heart.

Having a meal...

I'm afraid her intentions aren't really about the meal, are they?

What kind of act does she want to put on at the dinner table again?

Regardless, the fact that she is moving out is already set in stone!

Half an hour later—Luo Wanwan finally finished a table full of dishes, and even Li Xiao was somewhat surprised when he came downstairs.

Everyone took their seats at the table.

Li Xiao glanced at the dishes on the table, a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Laoqi hurriedly explained what he had told Cai Xiaotang again.

Li Xiao nodded and said nothing more.

Immediately after, Luo Wanwan spoke up: "Li Xiao... I wanted to have a meal with everyone today, since I'm moving out soon..."

"You've already found a place, right?"

Cai Xiaotang suddenly interrupted Luo Wanwan.

She had been hearing about her house-hunting these past few days, but hadn't paid much attention to the progress.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Laoqi reply from the side: "Yes, it's basically been decided..."

"But it still needs to be cleaned."

Luo Wanwan snatched the words back, smiled at Cai Xiaotang: "I've really disturbed everyone during this time, and thank you all for taking care of me. Once that place is tidied up, I'll be moving out..."

By the end, her tone had actually become somewhat choked, looking as if she were very reluctant to leave everyone.

Seeing this, Lao Wu hurriedly said: "It's okay, Wanwan, we can go visit you when we have time..."

"Yeah, we can go visit you when we have time."

The others hurriedly chimed in as well.

Only Li Xiao remained silent, silently putting food into Cai Xiaotang's bowl.

Luo Wanwan waited a few seconds, and seeing he had no intention of speaking, she could only swallow her resentment and continue: "Yes, everyone can come visit me. Once the place is tidied up, I will invite everyone over as guests."

"Have you found people to do the cleaning?"

Cai Xiaotang suddenly asked again, looking at Luo Wanwan with a concerned expression.

Then, without waiting for Luo Wanwan to speak, she smiled and continued.

"If everyone is free these next few days, we could actually go over and help you tidy up the place ourselves, or... I also know some pretty good housekeeping services; they're guaranteed to be high-quality and affordable, and they're very meticulous. You haven't been back long, so you definitely don't know these things as well as I do..."

"Is that so..."

The smile on Luo Wanwan's face stiffened for a moment, and she was just about to refuse.

When she heard Li Xiao, who had been silent the whole time, speak up as well.

"Xiaotang is right. You probably aren't very familiar with these things; just leave it to her, no need to be polite."

Luo Wanwan: "..."

Since Li Xiao had spoken, she naturally had no room to decline further and could only grit her teeth and agree: "Then I'll trouble you, Xiaotang..."

"Don't mention it."

Cai Xiaotang responded immediately, and looking at Luo Wanwan's expression, she felt incredibly elated.

No wonder she arranged such a big meal today...

Isn't it just because she wants to use the excuse that the house is still being tidied up to stay for a few more days?

To what extent it has been tidied up and whether it is habitable, isn't that entirely up to her to decide?

She would not give Luo Wanwan that opportunity!

Very soon, everyone started chatting about other topics, and no one mentioned Luo Wanwan moving out again.

Once the meal ended, Luo Wanwan immediately found an excuse to return to her room.

Then, the moment she entered the door, she immediately grabbed the pillow on the bed and smashed it directly against the wall!

The soft pillow hit the wall, making a muffled thud, and slowly slid to the floor.

She dared not make too much noise to attract the attention of others, so she could only use this method to vent her anger.

But the hatred in her heart was not relieved in the slightest; instead, it grew more and more intense.

"Cai! Xiao! Tang!"

Luo Wanwan gritted her teeth as she recited the name of Cai Xiaotang, and a trace of murderous intent gradually surfaced in the depths of her eyes.

That cheap woman, ever since she left and came back, it is as if she has become a different person!

She had originally thought that she was someone easy to manipulate...

But she had not expected...

Luo Wanwan replayed the events of the entire day in her mind, and thinking about how she had been rendered speechless by Cai Xiaotang several times, she was so angry she nearly vomited blood.

She is very good at talking, is she?

Her mouth is very sharp, is it?

Then she would tear her mouth apart so she could never open it again!

Thinking this, Luo Wanwan picked up her phone directly and quickly dialed a number.

A few seconds later, the call was answered.

Before the person on the other end could speak, Luo Wanwan said in a low voice: "Have people prepare; I plan to act in these next few days. Once I move out of here, keep a close watch on that woman for me and find an opportunity to strike at any time!"

"Yes."

The person on the other end of the phone responded quickly.

Luo Wanwan did not say anything more and hung up the phone directly, nearly smashing the phone away in the process.

Then, not knowing what she thought of, she suddenly curled her lips and laughed.

Heh...

It is finally coming.

Let's see how much longer that Cai Xiaotang can be smug!

Li Xiao, she is determined to have him!
