Tang Yue remained silent.
Lian He wanted to bring the sisters closer, but seeing Tang Yue’s silence, he somewhat understood her intentions.
The room was quiet.
"Dad, Sister Xiao Yue is very busy every day, and besides, she doesn’t like these kinds of occasions," Lian Qingyang spoke up for Tang Yue.
"Right, dad was too anxious," Lian He continued after Lian Qingyang.
He was just too eager to see the sisters reconcile. He added, "It’s okay if you don’t go, it’s just an engagement ceremony, just a formality."
"Yeah, the New Year is coming soon, I’d rather not join in on this bustling event," Tang Yue followed up.
Just thinking about encountering the Xiang Family, Tang Yue felt extremely anxious at heart.
After dinner was over and the guests had left, Meng Siyu closed the door, arranged the charcoal fire in the room, and opened half of the window to allow for air circulation.
"Wife, I want to continue investigating, to find out who Lian Qingqing’s real parents are," Meng Siyu suddenly spoke.
Not only Lian Qingqing, but he also wanted to investigate Lian Qingyang.
Before, he felt that not investigating Lian Qingyang was better for fear of the truth upsetting Tang Yue, but now he felt that some things, if you don’t clear them up, maybe when it really explodes, who knows if it will hurt Tang Yue?
Are the twins, Lian Qingqing and Lian Qingyang, not Lian He’s at all?
Back then, was Lian He happy to be a dad, or was there actually a child, just that Xiang Yazhi had switched it?
These mysteries, Meng Siyu felt, were better unraveled.
"Maybe someone else brought them here," Tang Yue said, yet something felt wrong. Why would someone bring home someone else’s daughter?
But if they weren’t brought, then where did they come from?
Could Xiang Yazhi have split into two?
Tang Yue was puzzled.
Meng Siyu hugged her and said, "Wife, leave this matter to me. Once there’s a result, I’ll tell you. Wife, shouldn’t we go to sleep now?"
Meng Siyu kissed her earlobe; her smooth earlobe always elicited an adorable reaction from Tang Yue every time he kissed it.

Tang Yue did not attend the engagement ceremony; she was drawing drafts at home, snuggled on the sofa, enjoying the warm fire and snacking on fruits and pastries, comfortably enjoying her day.
Taking advantage of the free time to draw more drafts.
"Xiao Yue, these grapes are really sweet," Wu Xin brought the freshly washed grapes into the living room, only to find Tang Yue asleep on the sofa.
Wu Xin set down the grapes, pulled the small blanket over her, and quietly left.
Just as she reached the yard, she felt someone outside the door. Indeed, as soon as she opened the door, there stood Lian Qingyang, hand raised, about to knock.
"Xiao Yue is asleep; if you have something, maybe wait a bit?" Wu Xin suggested.
Tang Yue always worked very hard in everything, and now that she finally had a nap in the afternoon, Wu Xin naturally did not want Lian Qingyang to disturb her.
She could be with her loved ones, and although Boss Shi hadn’t been caught yet, she believed it was only a matter of time. As long as she could be with Gu Chun, she wasn’t afraid of anything.
"They look good." Tang Yue glanced at her dumplings. Lian Tong’s dumplings were indeed shapeless, simply pinched together on both sides, quite ugly, however, as long as the dumplings were edible, it didn’t really matter how well they were wrapped.
Grandma Gu originally wanted to help, but having just been discharged from the hospital not long ago, she wasn’t very fit, so she just sat watching.
Having her grandson and granddaughter-in-law by her side made Grandma Gu feel very happy about this New Year.
Having the New Year’s lunch in Jin City, although it was a very foreign city, but with Meng Siyu and the aunt being there, the celebration was quite enjoyable.
Lian Tong helped with washing the dishes, and aunt and niece made up for the time they had not been able to spend together properly in the past.
Seeing the smile on Lian Tong’s face, Tang Yue couldn’t help but ask, "Aunt, did you attend Lian Qingqing’s engagement?"
"I didn’t go." Lian Tong didn’t like Lian Qingqing. She said, "Your father came to look for me, but I didn’t go. I’ve severed ties with the Lian Family, it’s better not to attend. Besides, I’ve never been close with Lian Qingqing, so I didn’t bother going." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"It wouldn’t have mattered if I was there or not." Lian Tong’s candid words slightly bewildered Tang Yue.
She had thought that everyone attended except her.
"Xiao Yue, let’s not talk about this. After the New Year, will you still stay in Jin City? When will you leave?" Lian Tong asked, "Gu Chun and I are thinking of moving to Sea City with grandma. It’s just that grandma has always lived in Jin City and doesn’t really want to leave."
Jin City was nice, but in terms of safety, Lian Tong and Gu Chun were worried. Moreover, Gu Chun had duties to attend to and couldn’t always stay in Jin City.
They were just worried about the elderly lady having an accident while alone at home.
"I will leave a few days after Zheng Yue, and as for Si Yu, he will probably leave once his company is completely stable."
