"Xiao Li?" Tang Youyou narrowed her eyes. Before Jiang He came, she had already drunk several glasses of wine. The mixture of different alcohols made her a little tipsy now.
"You call me so intimately. Do you still remember that Tang Li is my aunt?"
"What's wrong with your aunt? Xiaoli is younger than you, and we are friends. It's just a nickname." Jiang He said indifferently.
"Why, do you still care about this kind of relationship?" Jiang He said, looking at Tang Youyou: "Youyou, how do you feel about Xiaoli?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Tang Youyou shook his head.
"I mean, Xiaoli has a gentle personality, is pretty, and is especially caring. She's also your favorite type. Don't you have any ideas?"
"Jiang He, are you kidding?" Tang Youyou frowned and said, "Tang Li is my aunt, my relative, that's all. How could I possibly have any thoughts about her!"
"Is that so? What if Tang Li falls in love with someone else in the future?" Jiang He asked.
Tang Youyou's movements suddenly paused. She stared blankly at the pink beauty in her hands, and suddenly felt an uncontrollable annoyance in her heart.
"I... who she likes has nothing to do with me. I'm just her relative and there's nothing I can do except give her my blessings." She replied a little irritably.
"what do you want to say in the end?!"
"Really? Then I feel relieved." Jiang He smiled and finally expressed his thoughts: "Youyou, I found that I like Xiaoli, so I want to confess to her."
"I want you to help me because we are best friends..."
Before Jiang He finished speaking, a white fist appeared in his field of vision.
The next second, she felt a dull pain on her face, then her vision spun and she fell to the ground.
Chen Zhi's scream startled Jiang He, who was seeing stars. She looked carefully and found that Tang Youyou was raising her fist and looking at her with a ferocious expression.
"Tang Youyou, what's wrong with you?!" she cried in pain.
"Jiang He, what the hell!"
I treat you as my best friend, and you want to be my dad?!
234.Haunted
Jiang He didn't understand. Even if she felt a little uncomfortable about her best friend falling in love with her relative, she wouldn't ignore their friendship of several years and hit her, right?
Besides, even if Tang Li is Tang Youyou's aunt, she is only in her early twenties, which is an age when she is ready for love. What's more, she is very outstanding, so there must be countless people who like her.
Could it be possible that Tang Youyou would beat up all the people who liked Tang Li just because of that little awkwardness?
The possessiveness is a bit too strong, almost to the point of being yandere.
Wait… possessiveness?
Jiang He covered his face, his pupils shrank slightly, and thought of a possibility that had been buried deep in his heart -
Tang Youyou's possessiveness towards Tang Li was obviously not something that a simple relative should show, and when they usually got along, there wasn't much of a feeling of aunt and niece.
At least Tang Youyou's feelings for Tang Li are definitely not the feelings of a niece for her aunt!
"Tang Youyou, you... like Tang Li?" she asked in astonishment.
Tang Youyou, who was originally full of anger, froze on her face when she heard this, but her heart was in a mess.
"……what?"
"Jiang He, what are you crazy about? How could I possibly like Tang Li!"
She was like a popped balloon, all the energy accumulated due to anger was released, and she became completely panicked.
Jiang He sat on the ground, looking at Tang Youyou who was in a panic just because of her question, and suddenly a hint of enlightenment arose in her heart.
She rubbed the side of her face which was aching slightly, and suddenly couldn't stop laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"
The embarrassment on Tang Youyou's face was almost overflowing. Jiang He hadn't said anything and was just smiling, but she had the illusion of being ashamed, as if Jiang He had seen through all her thoughts.
She threatened in a rather timid tone: "What are you laughing at? You deserve a beating, don't you?!"
"Hahaha... Stop, that punch just now hurt me so much." Jiang He said, and fell directly to the ground: "But I still want to laugh!"
"Tang Youyou, I always said you were a coward, but I was wrong. I didn't expect you to be so brave."
"So you're not a novice who doesn't dare touch a woman, but a Liu Xiahui who already has someone in his heart and has a special affection for her."
"No wonder you like women who exude maternal love. I wonder where your Oedipus complex comes from."
"So it's all based on what Tang Li likes, Tang You You, you're awesome!"
"Hahaha……"
"Don't say anymore!" Tang Youyou's voice trembled a little, and it was hard to tell whether she was angry or timid.
Jiang He's words were like an invisible giant hand, constantly peeling away her inner thoughts, tearing off the thin film that obscured her true heart layer by layer, until the fragile and humble heart protected inside was revealed.
"Why don't you say it?" Jiang He's voice couldn't help but rise. She stared at Tang Youyou's evasive eyes and said, "Do you think liking Tang Li is a shameful thing?"
"She is my relative..."
"What's wrong with relatives? Tang Li is only your aunt in name. Do you think you and Tang Li are related by blood?" Jiang He raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Wake up, Tang Youyou. No matter how happy your life is now, it can't change the fact that you are an orphan. To be frank, you and Tang Li have no relationship at all!"
"If you still hold on to your self-deceiving shame and reserve, then just wait and see Tang Li being snatched away by someone else. Then you can only watch Tang Li lying in the words of others and facing the tenderness that once belonged to you."
"And you are destined to only hold on to your insignificant modesty and feel sorry for yourself!"
Jiang He's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Tang Youyou's already completely exposed heart, causing her eyes to turn pale.
Yes, Tang Li is so cute and outstanding, and there are so many people who like her. Even if she can stop Jiang He from confessing to Tang Li now, what about the future?
In the future, more and more outstanding women will appear around Tang Li. They will continue to launch offensives, and sooner or later they will break through her heart formed due to the gap in age and experience.
If Tang Li brought a woman back at that time and told her that they would be together with that person in the future, and together... they would treat her as their child.
Tang Youyou's heart suddenly ached.
She couldn't imagine such a future, she couldn't accept such a future!
She raised her hands to cover her chest, her inner thoughts almost blurted out, but it seemed as if something was blocking her throat, making it impossible for her to say it no matter what.
Jiang He looked at Tang Youyou who was still struggling with her self-righteous ethics, and a hint of disappointment appeared in her eyes, but she was also somewhat relieved.
Because no matter what Tang Youyou thought, she would not change her decision——
"I will still confess to Tang Li." she said.
"you!"
"I'm not you." Jiang He interrupted Tang Youyou's outburst and said calmly, "From childhood to adulthood, I have gained very little and lost a lot."
"So I made up my mind a long time ago that I would fight for what I want. Only after fighting for it, I won't regret it."
"I like Tang Li, this is an indisputable fact. I am not afraid to express my feelings to her, nor will I give up because of your existence."
“All the reasons that persuade you to give up are just another name for cowardice.”
……
Since they had become rivals in love, there was naturally no reason for them to sit down and have a drink and chat.
Jiang He finished the cocktail in the glass in one gulp and left the bar directly.
Since she has made up her mind, she will act with great drive, especially when it comes to making a decision like confession which can affect her whole life, she must prepare seriously.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and if successful, she might be able to take Tang Li back to meet her parents.
Tang Youyou sat at the bar in a somewhat decadent manner, drinking one glass of wine after another.
As a person who had experienced this, Chen Zhi could naturally see that his two bosses seemed to have a conflict because of a certain girl.
But outsiders have no right to comment on matters of the heart, so she tactfully kept silent and just quietly changed the base liquor to one with a lower alcohol content.
Even so, Tang Youyou was still drunk.
She didn't even know how she got home. When she came to her senses, she was already standing at the door with her palms pressing on the door.
She knew very well that there was a person behind this door who had been haunting her dreams, and as long as she pushed open the door, she would be able to see him/her.
But at this moment, although it was within reach, she felt it was so close yet so far away.
235. Tang Li's Voice
"call……"
Tang Li wiped the sweat from her forehead and subconsciously glanced at the wall clock.
It's already seven o'clock in the evening. It's rare that Youyou hasn't returned home at this time. Even if there is something at the company, they will call her.
But now the phone on the table was silent, which made her feel a little sad.
Where is Youyou? I cooked a table full of her favorite dishes, but she went out to play and neglected the family.
Tang Li wiped the water stains on her hands and picked up the mobile phone on the table.
This is the smartphone that Tang Youyou bought specifically for her after she was reborn. I heard it cost several thousand yuan.
She would never have bought such an expensive mobile phone before. After all, in her eyes, there was no difference between a touch-screen phone costing thousands of dollars and a keypad phone costing hundreds of dollars - they were both used to make calls.
But as she was reborn as a girl in her twenties and came into contact with many young girls, she gradually realized the convenience that touch-screen smartphones brought to her life. At least now she no longer had to call or send text messages when she wanted to contact anyone. Instead, she could communicate through the screen with Aipipi, a phone called Penguin, and making Internet calls didn't cost so much.
In just a few months after her rebirth, her life was shattered and reconstructed by all kinds of new and strange things.
It seems that in this day and age, calling your children has become commonplace.
She looked at Tang Youyou's silly husky avatar on the screen, and her cheeks puffed up involuntarily.
"You are already so old, but you are still so ignorant."
"You didn't even call me when you didn't come back, and you made me worry for nothing!"
"I'm not going to call this stinky girl."
"If she doesn't call me, I'll scold her when she gets back!"
She muttered to herself like an old mother, but her fingers couldn't help but click on Tang Youyou's profile picture. By the time she came to her senses, she had already dialed her eldest daughter's penguin phone.
"Forget it... I'm already a grown-up, why should I bother with a child..."
"If there is something that you really can't get away from, then I can understand..."
Tang Li was trying to find an excuse for her actions, but heard a familiar ring coming from outside the door.
She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, thinking what a coincidence, Tang Youyou arrived at the door just after she called.
This is good, since she is still angry, she can teach that naughty girl a lesson and show her authority as a parent!
Thinking of this, Tang Li wiped her hands, walked into the living room angrily, with a (.oˇ_ˇo.) look on her face.
However, just as she opened the door in a rage, she was forced to take a step back by the strong smell of alcohol that made her feel dizzy.
Why did you drink so much?!
Tang Li looked closely in astonishment, and what she saw was a somewhat flustered Tang Youyou.
Tang Youyou realized belatedly that she was drunk after she returned home. If Tang Li saw her drunken and drunken appearance, she would definitely be scolded. As the most obedient and sensible child in the Tang family, this was what Tang Youyou was most proud of.
But now she is like a rebellious teenage girl who goes to the bar to show off her strength, which is undoubtedly against the bottom line of Tang Li, who has very traditional ideas.
Thinking of the usually gentle and virtuous Tang Li getting angry, Tang You You couldn't help but shrink her head - never mind that she was the CEO, even if she was the king, she would have to pinch her nose and admit defeat in front of Tang Li.
She was even considering going to the company and spending the night on the couch, then using the excuse that she was working overtime.
Even if I was seen in such an embarrassing state by my employees the next day, it was better than being spanked on Tang Li's knees!
However, before she could realize her thoughts, the cell phone in her handbag rang. She took it out dazedly and looked at it, and her face immediately changed.
Why is Old Tang calling me at this time? !
She wanted to hang up the phone in a panic to avoid being discovered by Tang Li at the door.
But after getting drunk, she even had double vision when looking at people, so how could she see clearly what was on the phone screen? She didn't even realize that she was holding the phone upside down, and she pressed the "hang up" button several times but failed to successfully hang up the phone, until Tang Li suddenly opened the door, and her movements froze.
The two looked at each other, and seeing Tang Li being scared back half a step by her, despair gradually arose in Tang Youyou's heart.
