Tang Xia looked at Zhou Linlin when she took out the underwear. Though she was angry, she did not show any feelings toward Zhou Linlin.

She glanced coldly at the man standing beside her, who looked embarrassed.

Then she turned to Zhou Linlin, who swaggered in front of her, and said, "There're plenty of such things in our house. You don't have to come from afar to return it to us.

"You can take it with you as a memorial. After all, you won't be seeing it anytime soon."

"Cousin, how could you talk to me like that? I took the time to give it back to you, but you didn't even thank me and spoke to me this way."

Zhou Linlin believed that she would be protected and was not afraid at all when she looked at Jiang Yuecheng, who stood beside her.

Tang Xia sneered coldly when she saw the shameless look on Zhou Linlin's face. "You are just a mistress. How dare you throw your weight in front of me, the legal wife!

"That's so interesting. What is she thinking about? How did she get the courage? Ah, no. How did the man beside me get the courage? One is a two-timer and the other is a coquette. But I must finish the task. This is so annoying," Tang Xia complained in her mind.

"Haha, you are kind? Everyone here knows what your intention is! Hmph! Fine! Do you mean you and he are from one family while I'm alone in this family? Get lost right now. This is my house."

"You're a younger cousin in this family, a stranger, a nothing. You're just an outsider who doesn't have any status."

"You're merely a mistress. How dare you pull your weight in front of me? Don't you feel ashamed?" Tang Xia snorted.

Zhou Linlin felt uneasy about Tang Xia's contemptuous and cold eyes. And Tang Xia even mentioned Zhou Linlin's status as a mistress, completely disregarding her feelings.

Zhou Linlin suddenly felt hot in her face as if it had been slapped by someone.

Zhou Linlin looked at Jiang Yuecheng beside her, but he stood there silently as if he did not know that she was looking at him.

Zhou Linlin was infuriated and said, "Alright! I'll leave. I'll leave. I'm the outsider, I'll leave!"

Then Zhou Linlin slammed the door and left.

Jiang Yuecheng was taken aback by the bang.

Then he came back to senses. He glared fiercely at Tang Xia and said unsatisfactorily, "Tang Xia, how could you talk to her that way? She's your cousin and our relative. How could you talk to her so unscrupulously?"

Tang Xia was going crazy when she heard Jiang Yuecheng's blatant defense and she shouted, "Relative? I never knew that I had such a barefaced relative who wanted to be a mistress...

"She's so shameless. If you want to marry Zhou Linlin so much, just say so and we'll get divorced right away. You don't have to find excuses."

Jiang Yuecheng looked at Tang Xia, wondering how Tang Xia suddenly became so bold and dared to argue with him.


"Then you can just wait and see. You'll be repentant!" Jiang Yuecheng said to Tang Xia ferociously.

Tang Xia glared at Jiang Yuecheng, who seemed to be feeling guilty and was red with anger as he slammed the door and went out.

"What's wrong? How can both of you slam the doors? Don't you know that it costs a lot to repair a door?" Tang Xia muttered unsatisfactorily.

Though Tang Xia felt good after she infuriated both of them with her words and made them leave, she started feeling regretful soon after.

This was not real life but a broadcast room. And she had tasks to complete. How could she do this and worsen the relationship that she had just improved with effort?

Tang Xia was somewhat upset now and wished that she hadn't been so tough.

Maybe her task could be finished earlier if she learned from Zhou Linlin, who pretended to be obedient.

When she was thinking of this, her mother-in-law walked out of her bedroom and started complaining upon seeing Tang Xia standing alone at the door.

"Why are you here? Where's my son? I heard the voices of my son and your cousin just now. Why did both of them leave but not you?

"Did you make them angry? You're so unfilial, you wicked woman!" Tang Xia's mother-in-law pointed at her nose and cursed.

Tang Xia looked down and didn't want to answer her mother-in-law. She knew she would argue with her if she replied and then it would take even longer for her to complete her task.

She’d better pretend to be obedient and let her mother-in-law curse her, who would then go back to her own bedroom once she calmed down.

As expected, Tang Xia's mother-in-law scolded her for a while and then stopped. She glared at Tang Xia and turned back toward her bedroom.

Tang Xia felt restless in the house and prepared herself to take a walk outside.

Tang Xia walked to a shopping mall, where there were beautiful clothes. Tang Xia could not help hanging around in each store and felt much better as she strolled around.

"It's true that the best way to delight oneself is to go shopping and eat," Tang Xia thought.

As she noticed a store where the clothes there were special and was about to walk in, a man suddenly popped out in front of her and knocked her down.

Tang Xia rubbed her shoulder with some difficulty, looked up, and was about to say something, only to find that the man had run away.

"What's wrong with that guy? Doesn't he know he's not allowed to run about in the mall? He's so rude."

But soon after, she found the handbag in her hand was missing. Suddenly, she came to realize that she had encountered a thief just now.

Tang Xia felt annoyed. She got up off the ground and rushed in the direction the thief had run away. Soon after, Tang Xia caught sight of the thief, who seemed to have discovered Tang Xia at the same time and ran faster. Then they began chasing and running around in the mall.

Finally, the thief was tired and was about to breakdown.

Tang Xia was about to catch him but the thief suddenly disappeared around the corner when Tang Xia lost her balance and fell down to the ground.

Tang Xia found there was severe pain in her ankle when she tried to get up—she had sprained her ankle.

Tang Xia touched her ankle and tried hard to stand up, but she failed because of the severe pain, which made her look pale in the face.

At the very same time, Chu Tiankuo showed up and stood beside Tang Xia. He squatted and looked straight into Tang Xia's eyes, and then said with a smile, "How are you so weak. How could you sprain your ankle when running behind a thief? You're so stupid."

Though it sounded like detestation, he looked at Tang Xia tenderly the whole time.

Tang Xia almost burst into tears when she saw the man in front of her, but she still pretended to be tough and said, "Yes! I'm beginning to think of myself as stupid, too."

Seeing Tang Xia like this, Chu Tiankuo frowned with dissatisfaction. Then he took Tang Xia into his arms. Tang Xia was in a panic for a moment but quickly calmed down.

Chu Tiankuo said to Tang Xia mildly, "Yeah, you're so stupid. What would you do if I wasn't by your side? Now let me take you to the hospital!"

Tang Xia didn't say anything but lay silently in Chu Tiankuo's arms. She buried her face in his arms and greedily breathed in his smell.

Tang Xia didn't know why but she felt serene in Chu Tiankuo's arms.

She smiled slightly and said to Chu Tiankuo, "Then you'll have to hold me in your arms till we get to the hospital. By the way, I'm heavy."

Now that Tang Xia was telling jokes, she had to be in a good mood at this time. Looking at Tang Xia, who looked so naughty, Chu Tiankuo also smiled. "That's ok. I can hold you no matter how heavy you are."

Then Chu Tiankuo took Tang Xia to the hospital, where he asked a doctor to treat her ankle and bind it up. Then they left the hospital after the doctor had prescribed some medicine for external application.

It got dark gradually. Tang Xia was unwilling to leave Chu Tiankuo and hoped to stay with him longer. But she had tasks to complete.

If she stayed out for the whole night, who knew how her family members would scold her? Then she would never finish her tasks.

Chu Tiankuo seemed to know what Tang Xia was worrying about. He said, "It's getting late and is almost evening. How about letting me take you home?"

Tang Xia lingered on Chu Tiankuo without saying anything. Chu Tiankuo fondled her head and said, "That's ok. We still have the chance to meet with each other. You don't have to worry about that. Let me take you home now."

"Well... ok. Thank you so much," Tang Xia said reluctantly.

Chu Tiankuo brought Tang Xia to the door. Tang Xia's mother-in-law started complaining while opening the door the minute Tang Xia pressed the doorbell. "Where did you go? Cook dinner now. Do you want us to starve to death?

"Did you still remember to come back? I thought that you were having a good time outside and that you wouldn't come back tonight."
