Chapter 3: Raising a Tiger as a Pet
"Wheat, you're back! Come in quickly."
Back at the Yin's house, the first person to come out and welcome her was her half-sister, Yin Yuqi. Her face couldn't hide her joyful emotions, as if she was truly welcoming her back home with all her heart.
Sometimes, Tong Mai really can't tell whether her enthusiasm is genuine or fake...
Tong Mai gave her a cold glance, not giving her a good look, while Yin Yuqi still had a smile on his face. "Sitting on the plane for so long must have exhausted you, hurry up and go upstairs to freshen up, waiting for you to have dinner together."
She was like a "mother" who had not seen her daughter for a long time, and as soon as she entered the door, she started nagging.
This role was originally supposed to be played by Chen Yuhua, but she sat on the sofa, reading the newspaper, as if she hadn't seen Tong Mai, with an unwelcome gaze in her eyes.
"Mom, wheat is back, what are you still sitting there for?"
Yin Yuqi perhaps also felt that her mother was too cold and couldn't help but remind her.
"Back then, just back then, do I need to beat the drum and shout welcome or what?" Her tone was cold enough, like a fox spirit's eyes scanning Tong Mai fiercely, finally stopping at Yin Yuqi. "What are you doing there joining in the excitement? Don't you have anything else to do? If not, why don't you contact Yize more often and strengthen your relationship? You've been engaged for so long, when are you going to get married?"
The same discontent and displeasure towards Tong Mai's unwelcome and dislike, the anger that was born from the bottom of his heart, all splashed onto Yin Yuqi's body.
I really don't know what this daughter is thinking?
What's the point of being so enthusiastic about this dead girl?
Look at that dead girl's appearance... a "fierce" look, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Yin family will raise a tiger and bring disaster upon themselves.
"Mom... what are you talking about!" Yú Qí winked at her mother, telling her not to say that.
Tong Mai was already used to Chen Yuhua's cold ridicule and sharp sarcasm, and after a long time, she didn't feel anything anymore!
No matter how sarcastic or contemptuous, she doesn't care. Tong Mai's eyes also held disdain as she carried her luggage upstairs, completely ignoring Chen Yuhua's presence.
"Hey... stop right there!" Chen Yuhua pointed at Tong Mai, his tone was quite urgent.
Since she was called, she still couldn't stop in her tracks, on someone else's turf, and she still couldn't be so arrogant as to ignore her. Turning around, she gazed at Chen Yuhua's slightly ferocious face, with a hint of coldness and elegance emanating from her eyes, her gaze unflinchingly fixed on her, without saying a word.
"Who do you think you are, walking into someone's home like that? You come in without a word, who do you think you are?" Chen Yuhua glared at Tong Mai's infuriating face, her temper rising.
Yu Hua...
"Mom..."
Yin's father and Yin Yuqi both spoke up at the same time to stop him.
However, Tong Mai was not someone to be trifled with. "If you don't welcome me, I'll leave!" Her words were icy cold, and she didn't believe that there wasn't a place in this world where she, Tong Mai, couldn't fit in.
"Go! If you have the ability, then leave and never come back!" Chen Yuhua couldn't wait for her to disappear from her sight forever, seeing less of her, worrying less...
"Mom, say less." Yin Yuqi pressed down on her mother and at the same time blocked Tong Mai from leaving. "Xiao Mai, go upstairs, no matter what, my mom is still an elder. No matter how big your grievances are, you're also a member of the Yin family and shouldn't have such an attitude."
Yin Yuqi is only one year older than her, but it seems like she understands things better.
While talking, he helped Tong Mai carry his luggage and went upstairs to the bedroom...
Regardless of whether Yin Yuqi is being genuine or hypocritical, it cannot be denied that on the surface, she is still somewhat concerned about her...
