Chapter 1709: The Cabbage at Home is About to be Rooted Up by a Pig

~7 min read 1,313 words

The pupils of the two reflected one another.

The air, too, gradually grew ambiguous...

"Tiantian, look what I brought you..."

Wei Yangyang walked in, carrying large and small bags.

But upon seeing the two figures intertwined on the sofa, she gasped.

Then she said: "You two... have things progressed this quickly?!"

The two people on the sofa immediately separated.

They sat on opposite ends of the sofa, pretending nothing had happened.

But embarrassment was written all over their faces...

Jiang Motian tucked a strand of hair behind her ear uncomfortably, then smiled at Wei Yangyang and asked: "When did you get back?"

"Just now. I came straight to your place after returning, but it seems I came at a bad time."

Wei Yangyang had been away on a business trip during this period, busy day and night.

Now that she was back, she came to report to the Art Studio.

Yet she never expected...

The cabbage at home was about to be rooted up by a pig!

Jiang Motian did not want Wei Yangyang to misunderstand, so she explained: "Xie Wanyi wasn't feeling well, so he was just lying here for a moment."

After speaking, Jiang Motian turned her head to look at Xie Wanyi and asked: "Are you... feeling better?"

The subtext of her words was to let Xie Wanyi leave first, so as to avoid Wei Yangyang continuing to misunderstand.

But Xie Wanyi had no intention of leaving at all.

He remained leaning on the sofa and said: "No, I'm still dizzy. I want to lie down for a while longer."

"... Alright then. If you still don't feel well, go to the Hospital and get checked out. It just so happens you can let the doctor who treated you last time take a look."

"Okay."

Xie Wanyi did not stand on ceremony and lay back down.

And Wei Yangyang, watching the familiar way the two interacted, couldn't help but ask: "You two, have you made up?"

Jiang Motian first gave a "Mm," then pointed to the courtyard, signaling for the two of them to go outside and talk.

As it turned out, the moment the two walked into the courtyard, Xie Wanyi sat up.

What to do? He really wanted to hear what those two were talking about!

Xie Wanyi was very conflicted.

He hadn't decided whether to go eavesdrop or lie back down as if nothing happened.

And in the courtyard, Wei Yangyang was already standing with her arms crossed, looking at Jiang Motian with a scrutinizing expression.

"Speak, what exactly happened while I was away on my business trip?"

"It's nothing much, just..."

Jiang Motian gave a concise summary of what had happened recently.

Although she omitted and trimmed details, Wei Yangyang was still left looking astonished.

She blinked, then calmed her mood.

Then she muttered: "I actually missed so much! You tell me, if I had come back any later, would you have already married Xie Wanyi?"

"Don't talk nonsense! There's nothing between us!"

Wei Yangyang slanted a look at her and asked a soul-searching question: "You were about to kiss, and you say there's nothing?"

"At that time... it was just..."

Jiang Motian wanted to explain it properly.

But before she could think of the right words, her face turned into a red apple.

Seeing her like this, Wei Yangyang sighed softly.

Then she said: "Alright, alright. My lips are sealed, I won't say anything. You should also... develop things slowly."

Develop slowly...

Jiang Motian dropped her shoulders and whispered to herself: "This kind of thing, there's no point if only one person is trying, right?"

"But how do you know he isn't trying?"

Wei Yangyang's words made Jiang Motian freeze.

She was not an unobservant person; she could feel the care Xie Wanyi showed her.

But to say whether there was that kind of meaning behind it...

Jiang Motian could not be sure.

Yet with the topic brought up by her good friend, Jiang Motian urgently wanted a result.

In order to get a result, she even sought advice from Wei Yangyang: "Do you think I should just ask him directly?"

"Ask what directly? Don't tell me it's something like... 'Do you like me?'"

Jiang Motian nodded.

But before Wei Yangyang could respond, she negated it herself: "No, no! If he denies it, it would be too embarrassing!"

Wei Yangyang looked at Jiang Motian's conflicted state and knew in her heart...

This woman had truly fallen for him.

It wasn't hard to understand why she would fall for Xie Wanyi.

After all, that man was so handsome and so gentle.

But then again...

Wei Yangyang is also a novice in love; she has no experience and cannot offer any valuable advice.

She could only say, "Keep adjusting to each other; deepen your feelings first."

Jiang Motian nodded and fell into deep thought.

Wei Yangyang fell silent along with her.

But while she was silent, her eyes were not idle; she was looking around the courtyard.

It was just from this look that she discovered something.

"Huh, these flowers are blooming so vigorously!"

Jiang Motian raised her eyes to look faintly and said, "It's all thanks to Xiaoshi; he is very good at gardening."

Xiaoshi...

Wei Yangyang thought of something and asked a bit nervously, "If Xiaoshi were to run into Xie Wanyi..."

"There is no such hypothesis; Xiaoshi has found a job, he has been very busy lately and hasn't come over."

"... In other words, as soon as Xie Wanyi comes, Xiaoshi stops coming?"

"Mm."

Jiang Motian responded, but then noticed that Wei Yangyang had gone quiet.

She looked up and saw that the smile on Wei Yangyang's face... was very strange.

"Hey, what are you pondering again?"

"Nothing."

Wei Yangyang said there was nothing.

But in reality?

She had made a big discovery: this fool Jiang Motian still wants to deepen her feelings with him... little did she know, Xie Wanyi is thinking the same thing!

And he even laid out his plans a step ahead!

Tsk tsk, this man, his thoughts are deep!

Wei Yangyang sighed inwardly, then turned her head to look inside the Art Studio.

She saw a shadow flash past the window!

This discovery made Wei Yangyang raise her eyebrows.

Afterwards, she gave a light cough, raised her voice, and said, "Tiantian, you've been so busy lately that you've lost weight; this won't do!"

"Ah, have I lost weight?"

"Of course, you haven't been eating properly lately, right? Now that I'm back, I must arrange some good food for you!"

"There's no need for that..."

"Yes, there is, yes there is! Let's go have a big meal right now, let's go!"

Wei Yangyang was impulsive and dragged Jiang Motian, intending to head out.

But Jiang Motian said, "I still have work to finish, and besides..."

Before Jiang Motian could finish her sentence, she heard the person inside the house say as he walked out, "Go ahead, you need to be full to have the energy to work well."

As his voice fell, Xie Wanyi looked at Wei Yangyang and said, "I'm hungry too; you wouldn't mind if I joined, would you?"

Oh, how could she mind?

Wei Yangyang was just waiting for Xie Wanyi!

Today, let Wei Yangyang see exactly how much sincerity this Xie Wanyi has for Jiang Motian!

The corners of her mouth curled up slowly, and Wei Yangyang said, "If you're paying the bill, then we'll take you along!"

"No problem, so where shall we eat?"

"A music restaurant opened recently; it feels pretty good, shall we go try it?"

"Sure."

The two of them made the decision happily and then looked at Jiang Motian together.

Jiang Motian looked to the left and then to the right.

Then she sighed.

It seemed she had no choice but to go.

But thinking of her disheveled appearance at this moment...
