Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 732 Turning the Tables

Everyone stared at Xinling, who remained unfazed, and thought that this girl was indeed quite capable.

Either she realized that everyone was maliciously smearing Guan Gu, or Xin Ling has a strong mental fortitude.

Indeed, a beautiful girl with no relatives, no friends, and a hereditary heart disease, who can live tenaciously in this world despite so many debuffs, must have some skills to survive.

Youyou knew that she now had to assert the initiative.

[Trying to steal my man?]

【dream!】

She glared at Guan Gu, who had caused her "romantic entanglements," before turning to Xinling with a smile.

"Xinling, Guan Gu does have many flaws and shortcomings, but he is my husband. I will supervise him to correct them, so you don't need to worry too much."

Xinling smiled upon hearing this, and said with a hidden barb, "Youyou, don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it."

"I just feel that there are too few good men like Guan Gu. Any woman who is lucky enough to have him should cherish him."

"In fact, both husband and wife have their own faults and shortcomings. You should be more tolerant and understanding of each other."

She smiled sweetly: "If it were me, I wouldn't care too much about Guan Gu's shortcomings."

"hiss……"

Upon hearing this, Youyou narrowed her eyes.

After Xinling said that, it seems like I was being too harsh on Guan Gu?

I initially thought she was a delicate little white flower, but it turns out she's also full of the fragrance of tea.

This is outrageous!

Before Youyou could retaliate, Xinling suddenly stood up and took her leave.

"No matter what, I'm happy to see that Guan Gu has a happy and fulfilling family."

"Guan Gu, You You, I sincerely wish you a long and happy life together."

She smiled, but a hint of reluctance flickered in her eyes: "In that case, I'll be going now, without disturbing you any longer."

Everyone was stunned by what she said, and couldn't understand Xinling's thoughts for a moment.

Just a moment ago they were all tense and ready to fight, how come they suddenly backed down?

Guan Gu didn't care about any of that; he just got up and happily saw his guest off.

"Are you leaving?"

Seeing this, Xinling's smile froze, and her tone became somewhat resentful: "Are you happy?"

Guan Gu paused for a moment, then feigned a regretful expression: "No, I originally wanted to chat with you a little longer."

It's unclear whether Xinling was waiting for Guangu to say this, but she quickly grabbed Guangu's arm and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go eat together, just the two of us."

Guan Gu was immediately in a dilemma.

"The two of us..."

He glanced around at everyone in the apartment, blinking frantically at them.

Nanfeng stood up and chuckled dryly, "Guan Gu, you're usually incredibly stingy. Now that you've finally treated us to a meal, it's not appropriate to only invite Xinling, is it?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

As soon as Curry Sauce heard about food, she chimed in without hesitation, "We're all neighbors and roommates, what neighbor or roommate doesn't ask for a free meal?"

Meijia smiled and pointed to the kitchen, "Yeah, and eating out is too expensive. Didn't we already buy the groceries today to treat Xinling to a meal at home?"

With everyone's help, Guan Gu grinned broadly and nodded vigorously, saying, "I think that's a good idea too. It's fun to eat together."

"How about... I ask Youyou to cook a couple of dishes?"

Guan Gu's words almost made everyone present want to beat their chests and stamp their feet in frustration.

Should we have Youyou cook?

Doesn't everyone know whether she can cook or not?

Guan Gu must be out of his mind!

"What are you doing...?"

As expected, Youyou's pupils contracted sharply upon hearing this.

She pulled Guan Gu onto the sofa, covered her mouth, and whispered, "What are you talking about! Have you forgotten that I can't cook at all?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Gu slapped his forehead in frustration; he had completely forgotten about it in his nervousness.

So Guan Gu could only look awkwardly at Xin Ling and said with a forced smile, "How about letting Mei Jia..."

Xinling smiled gently and said with a strong sense of ownership, "Let me do it. Let everyone taste my cooking today."

As soon as she finished speaking, without waiting for anyone's reaction, she went straight to the kitchen.

Guan Gu was stunned. He shouted at Xin Ling's retreating figure, "But you're a guest!"

Xinling turned around, her face completely unconcerned: "Don't treat me like an outsider. I love it when my home is lively."

She then walked unceremoniously to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

"Ugh."

Nanfeng slowly retorted, "What they want to make isn't food, it's their wife."

"This is outrageous!"

Youyou gritted her teeth and growled, "I'll make her pay!"

"Youyou, calm down! Calm down!"

Meijia, Wanyu, and Curry Sauce quickly stopped the furious Youyou. Meijia said in a voice barely above a whisper, "Don't be impulsive. From what I've observed, Xinling's skill level and mental fortitude are far superior to yours. You're no match for her in a battle of wits."

"If words don't work, I'll resort to force!"

"Firm fighting is even more out of the question."

Wan Yu said anxiously, "At most, they've just come to provoke us; it doesn't even qualify for a physical fight."

Youyou snorted, "Then I'll just do nothing and let her be Guan Gu's girlfriend, okay?"

"That's fine."

No one heard the second half of Youyou's sentence at all; they all nodded in agreement.

"What?!?!"

Youyou's eyes widened: "Then let her stay, I'll leave!"

No, no.

Everyone then realized what had happened and clasped their hands together in apology to Youyou.

Zhanbo reassured her, "Youyou, don't worry, we're true fans of 'Life or Death'! Anyone who ships 'Concern' is a cult!"

"You've already come up with a name for your pairing, and you still say you don't ship them?!"

"no."

Everyone looked at Youyou, who was so angry that she was baring her teeth and brandishing her claws, and they all had a headache.

"Okay, calm down."

In the end, Nanfeng gave the order: "If we're going to discuss this, let's not do it in the living room, so Xinling doesn't overhear."

"In that case, Yu Mo, Mei Jia, and I will be responsible for probing Xin Ling's true intentions. The rest of you can think about the follow-up plan."

"Show off your love or vilify Guan Gu, use whatever tricks you have."

Nanfeng looked heartbroken: "There are nine of us. If we can't even handle Xinling, Yifei and the others will laugh at us when they come back."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Yifei's jokes about them are secondary; when Teacher Zeng really gets sarcastic, he's no less scathing than Nanfeng at full power.

"very good."

Nanfeng nodded in satisfaction: "That's settled, dismissed!"

Wanyu and Curry Sauce quickly pulled Youyou toward Guangu's bedroom, while Zhanbo put his arm around Guangu's shoulder. The two brothers followed behind the girl with long sighs.

Nanfeng, Yumo, and Meijia exchanged a glance and then got up and headed to the kitchen.

"Xinling, we're here to help you."

……

In Guan Gu's bedroom, no matter how much Guan Gu apologized and tried to please her, Youyou still couldn't stand him.

After understanding the whole story, Zi Qiao couldn't help but laugh and said, "So the eight of you couldn't handle Xin Ling?"

"That's so lame!"

"It's not that I can't handle it, it's just that Xinling is too... clingy."

After hesitating for a long time, Wan Yu said slowly and deliberately, "It's not that she's not aggressive, but every time she shows that she wants to be Mrs. Guangu, she backs down before we can even retaliate."

"That's right."

Youyou said angrily, "I was just about to declare war when Xinling got up to leave. I can't exactly chase after her and say that Guan Gu is mine and you can't take him away, can I?"

"As soon as we let our guard down, she launched a surprise attack."

"Before we could even react, Xinling went straight to the kitchen to cook without saying a word."

"Oh……"

Ziqiao suddenly realized: "When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy tires, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue."

"I didn't realize Xinling was such a master of guerrilla warfare."

He, never one to shy away from a good spectacle, said, "Auntie, you should just surrender when you encounter such a formidable opponent."

"Go to hell!"

Youyou grabbed the doll from the bed and threw it at Ziqiao.

With a snap, the toy doll was instantly decapitated.

Ziqiao's eyes darted around, and he offered a compromise: "How about you take Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and she takes Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and we'll give Guangu a day off on the weekend?"

"Lu Ziqiao, why do you keep giving me such terrible ideas!"

Youyou was now completely enraged: "Am I your aunt, or is it that Xinling who's your aunt?!"

"Of course it's you."

Ziqiao smiled ingratiatingly: "Actually, I was just telling a joke to lighten the mood. Whether physically or mentally, how could I, as your nephew, not support you?"

As he spoke, he cast another ambiguous glance at Guan Gu.

[Guan Gu, this time I'll help you draw your aunt's fire, so remember this favor.]

Guan Gu understood Zi Qiao's thoughts, and he quietly gave Zi Qiao a thumbs up.

Ziqiao gestured with his lips, indicating to Guangu to coax Youyou again.

Guan Gu hurriedly stepped forward and carefully tugged at Youyou's sleeve.

"long."

Although Ziqiao had diverted some of Youyou's firepower, she was still furious with Guangu, the instigator.

"Hey, don't touch me!"

Seeing that Guan Gu was really sitting there dumbly without moving, Zi Qiao couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Hug me."

He opened his mouth and spoke silently to Guan Gu.

Guan Gu didn't understand at first and stared at Zi Qiao in confusion.

"Hug me!"

Ziqiao increased the range of motion in his lip movements.

Guan Gu suddenly realized what was happening and quickly opened his arms to hug Youyou tightly, refusing to let go.

Youyou struggled desperately against Guangu's embrace, but the more she struggled, the weaker her strength became.

Ziqiao nudged Wanyu, and Wanyu immediately understood.

She offered Youyou a way out at the right time: "Youyou, with a formidable enemy at hand, what we need to do is unite as one and absolutely avoid infighting."

"snort!"

Now that she had a way out, Youyou looked up at Guangu and said, "Wait until I've dealt with Xinling, then I'll see how I deal with you!"

Guan Gu smiled sheepishly upon hearing this, and changed the subject, saying, "We still need to think about how to win over Xinling first."

He gave a soft hum, but no longer made things difficult for Guan Gu.

She knew that she wasn't the only one feeling frustrated; Guan Gu was also caught in the middle and was having a hard time.

"So, what are your thoughts?"

Youyou raised her eyes and asked.

Ziqiao thought for a moment and said dismissively, "I don't think Xinling necessarily likes Guangu that much. She just sees Guangu as her reason for being strong and living."

"How about we introduce her to someone? Maybe we can help her find true love, and everyone will be happy?"

"Introduce me to someone?"

Youyou pondered, "That sounds good, but we don't have any guys around us who are particularly suitable for Xinling."

"Um."

Everyone nodded and fell into deep thought.

Wan Yu's eyes lit up: "Zhang Wei?"

Guan Gu adjusted his glasses and tentatively asked, "Senior Brother?"

Zhanbo frowned and hesitated before saying, "Zhao Wuliang?"

"Uncle Zhang, the gatekeeper?"

Everyone looked at the curry sauce in shock upon hearing this.

Curry Sauce gave an awkward laugh: "I was just saying it casually."
