“Alright, let’s go in shall we?” Tang Qinghong spoke, before walking into the house, curious at who the mysterious owner of the house was.

 When he first came to this village, he was welcomed by the villagers, but they started disliking him and refusing him and just based on that, it was clear to see that the owner of this house was quite well respected in the area. Who was it, and why did they garner such respect?

 The first thing he saw upon entering the house was a pile of money on the floor, then a beautiful girl in a white T-shirt and a pair of jeans.

 The girl looked over at him when she heard him come in, and he blinked in surprise for a moment…It was her?

 He was amused by this girl when he saw her on the train a few hours ago, thinking that she was probably a student on their way back home for the holidays, but before they could have a conversation, she vanished.

 Now, she appeared in front of him again, and was the house owner that he had been curious about? What were the odds?

 “You…”

 “Ah, the last one is back I see. Go pack your bags and get out of my house.” Gu Xiqiao glanced at him, speaking with a cold and demanding tone.

 Tang Qinghong realized that she was angry, and with a glance at the money on the floor and another at Bao Xinyi that was still shivering slightly behind him, he pieced together what was going on pretty quickly. He was still curious, however. How did this girl manage to scare Bao Xinyi so badly?

 “Wait.” As Gu Xiqiao was about to walk upstairs, Tang Qinghong stopped her with an amiable tone, as if he wanted to look for a compromise. “I’m sorry on behalf of my friend for getting mad at you, but we really need to stay here. Can we reach an agreement?”

 Hearing his words, both Bao Xinyi and Su Wen made an expression of equal surprise.

 To them, Tang Qinghong was like the moon in the sky, far and unreachable, and even if they lived under the same roof, they still treated him with respect and even fear. Not only did they differ largely in social status, but also in other factors too, and they already felt lucky beyond belief to be able to live here together with him this time.

 Upon hearing his tone, it was hard for them to process what was going on for a few moments. Who was Tang Qinghong? He was someone that even the mayor of the Imperial Capital had to give respect to, and now he was being so polite and humble to this girl? This was too surprising, and Su Wen’s expression was one of someone that had seen a ghost.

 Meanwhile, Bao Xinyi understood Tang Qinghong’s reaction. This girl probably wasn’t as simple and harmless as she looked.

 “Sorry, but that’s impossible.” Gu Xiqiao didn’t even turn her head as she refused, nary a pause in her steps.

 This girl really was too brash, and Su Wen couldn’t help but look towards Tang Qinghong. Judging from the looks of it, was he about to get angry? There weren’t that many people that could refuse Young Master Tang so directly, after all.

 Tang Qinghong sighed softly as he heard the refusal. So he had to go about this in another way? He looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist and smiled. “Say, do you know the people from the Yin family?”

 This time, Gu Xiqiao stopped walking up the stairs and looked back down at him, raising her chin slightly in a silent order for him to explain.

 “Tang Yanling is my aunt.”
