Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

At that time, Tang Junyao and the others were all ready and waiting for the barbecue delivery to arrive.

After the women left, Ji Hancheng carefully instructed Xu Mingkai to buy barbecue, repeating everything Lu Jinnan had mentioned at the dinner table.

Seeing that the barbecue and drinks hadn't arrived yet, Tang Junyao went to the window and called her godmother to inquire about her health. After hearing from her godmother that Xiaomei was taking good care of her, she hung up the phone with peace of mind.

After seeing her hang up the phone, Su Xue asked with concern, "How is Aunt Zhang? Is she feeling unwell?"

Tang Junyao sat down next to her, crossed her legs, and sighed, "Godmother has been used to housework all her life and can't stand being idle. Her health has improved, but now she's cleaning the kitchen again. Xiaomei said the kitchen is actually quite clean, but Godmother just wants to find something to do."

In fact, Tang Junyao could understand her godmother's behavior. Busy people feel like every part of their body is rusting when they have free time, unlike young people who can lie down on weekends, eating breakfast and lunch, sometimes only once a day, and then adding a late-night snack.

Su Xue suggested, "Then let Aunt Zhang do something she likes; it'll help her pass the time."

Tang Junyao was about to say something when the doorbell interrupted her. She stood up, put on her slippers, and ran to open the door. Xu Mingkai was outside carrying three large bags of snacks, drinks, and barbecue, which looked like a lot of work.

She gave a slightly apologetic smile, "Assistant Xu, thank you so much, I'm really sorry."

Xu Mingkai didn't hand the things to Tang Junyao, but insisted on carrying them himself, even though his hands were already marked with deep lines. He refused to help, saying, "Young Madam, let me do it."

As she spoke, she turned sideways and carried the things inside. Tang Junyao didn't stand on ceremony anymore, thinking that Ji Hancheng must have instructed her to do so. "Just put them on the coffee table. Thank you for your trouble."

Xu Mingkai scratched his head sheepishly. The young mistress was just being polite and courteous, so she was able to become the young mistress based on her own abilities. "You're welcome, it's my duty. Then, young mistress, I'll be going now. If you need anything, just let me know."

Tang Junyao responded with an "okay".

After Xu Mingkai left, Xixi came out of the restroom. "Did the food arrive? Wow, so much stuff! I just went to the restroom and the delivery arrived. That's amazing!"

Su Xue smiled and said, "Assistant Xu brought it over. Your kind brother-in-law has really become incredibly tactful; he arranges everything perfectly."

"I really want to know which amazing master blessed Young Master Ji. He must have paid a lot of money."

Upon hearing this, Tang Junyao shook her head helplessly, pursed her lips, and remained silent. In truth, she also wanted to know.

Xi Xi didn't hold back her praise, saying, "Brother-in-law is amazing!"

As they talked, the group sat down on the carpet, moved the inconvenient coffee table aside to place the barbecue, and opened the snack bags.

If it weren't for the fact that Little Pomelo and Little Strawberry can't eat these snacks, Tang Junyao would really like to invite them over to eat some together.

Su Xue held the cards in her hand and kept shuffling them. "With three people, we can only play as the landlord. If Guoguo were here, we could also play Double Deduction."

Tang Junyao thought this was a good idea and suggested, "Xixi, why don't you ask Guoguo if she's coming?"

After saying that, Tang Junyao took out a pack of Weilong spicy strips from the bag, opened it, and shared it with Su Xue, saying that this taste from her childhood was the most authentic.

Su Xue ate a spicy snack and exclaimed, "Yaoyao, do you remember who shared this good stuff with us?"

Tang Junyao smiled slightly, "I remember, it was when we saw a little boy being bullied after school, and we stepped in to help, and he gave us a pack of Weilong cigarettes as a thank you gift."

Su Xue nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, I didn't dare to eat it at first, but I got addicted after eating it. I even hid the shell and went to buy the same one from many stores before I found the same one."

Recalling the funny things they did when they were little, they both laughed. Wei Long still had the same vibe as when they were kids, but they were now mothers.

Xi Xi had never eaten this before. Her eyes were fixed on the Wei Long bag, and she tentatively asked, "Is this delicious? I want to try it."

Tang Junyao handed it to her, and Xixi took one and put it in her mouth. Su Xue asked expectantly, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Xi Xi nodded, took a tissue to wipe her fingers, chewed a few times, and said, "It tastes pretty good."

Su Xue slapped her thigh and said, "I knew it! The snacks your sister and I make are always delicious. They've all been tested and proven by us. Next time, I'll take you to eat snail rice noodles and hot and sour noodles. I guarantee you'll love them."

Speaking of snail rice noodles, Tang Junyao couldn't help but recall Ji Hancheng's disgusted expression. She remembered what he had said two years ago: "Ask her, 'Don't you feel like you're standing in a cesspool when you eat this stuff?'"

He really doesn't know what's good for him. This is such a delicious food. If he ever makes a mistake in the future, I'll make him eat snail rice noodles in front of him. No, I'll make him eat it with me too.

As she thought about it, the corners of her mouth involuntarily curved into a smile, without her even realizing it.

Su Xue nudged her shoulder. "Where's Sichun? Judging from your expression, is it because Young Master Ji is impotent? Are you really a slippery eel...?"

The "loach" meme is probably going to stick around forever. Luckily, Su Xue doesn't know that Ji Hancheng is dressed as a woman, otherwise she probably would have laughed herself silly.

He reached out a hand and turned her face back, saying, "Just eat your food; food won't shut you up."

After wiping her hands, the action-oriented Lan Yunxi immediately grabbed her phone from the coffee table and made a video call to Han Guoguo. The call rang for a long time before being answered, but the scene shocked the three people present.

Han Guoguo weaved through a pile of packages, as if looking for something. The ground was littered with cardboard boxes. The three people in front of the screen looked at each other, completely bewildered.

What is this girl doing? It's all messy, full of cardboard boxes. It must be a warehouse.

Xi Xi voiced everyone's question, squinting her beautiful eyes, blinking her eyelashes, and staring at the screen, "Sister Guo Guo, what are you doing here? Are you organizing the warehouse?"

On the screen, Han Guoguo, covered in sweat and panting heavily, gave up and slumped heavily onto the sofa, saying to the screen, "I bought a bag, but there are so many packages that I don't know which one it is. I've been looking for ages and still can't find it. Forget it, I'll just open them all first."

Xi Xi couldn't hide her surprise. "So all of these were packages you ordered? Weren't you in the warehouse?"

Han Guoguo glanced at the living room filled with cardboard boxes, which looked a bit like a warehouse. No wonder Xixi misunderstood. She smiled and said, "It's Han Duidui's living room. I bought a lot of things and haven't had time to unpack them yet. They're all piled up. I'm exhausted."

Su Xue was already stunned and speechless. Online shopping wasn't done this way. How much money must have gone into this? She wanted to ask tentatively, "Guoguo, may I be so bold as to ask how much you spent on all these online shopping items for this living room?"

Han Guoguo thought back for a moment, and it seemed that she didn't know either. It was Han Yue's supplementary card that was swiped, and she wasn't the one receiving the message, so it shouldn't be much. "I don't know the exact amount, but it shouldn't be much. The message wasn't mainly sent to me."

Tang Junyao listened quietly the whole time, but she was still shocked by the extent of the online shopping. Whether Han Guoguo was torturing Han Yue or herself, she didn't know.

Xi Xi was a little envious. "Sister Guo Guo, your brother is so good to you."

Han Guoguo didn't deny that Han Yue treated her well, just that he had a sharp tongue, but she didn't want to continue the topic. "What are you doing? Are you having fun?"

Xi Xi nodded and smiled, "Yeah, are you coming or not? We've all finished showering and are getting ready to play cards and have a late-night snack."

How could Han Guoguo be left out of this? She originally wanted to open the package, but now she thought she'd leave it to Han Yue to open tomorrow. "Wait for me for half an hour. I'll take a shower and come over right away. Which floor do you live on?"

Xixi gave the floor and room number.

The person on the screen was about to remind her to drive carefully when Han Guoguo hurriedly hung up the phone. After hanging up, Han Guoguo called Han Yue, her tone neither good nor bad, a little insincere, "Dear brother, can I ask where you put your car keys?"

Han Yue, on the other end of the phone, got goosebumps. "Speak like a human being, don't use a voice changer."

Han Guoguo cursed inwardly, "What a jerk!" and simply stated, "I'm going to Tihou."

Han Yue glanced at his watch. "It's almost 10 o'clock. What are you doing jumping around like that so late at night instead of sleeping? Stay home and behave yourself. If you're bored, you might as well sort through your packages."

Han Guoguo touched her chest with one hand, calmly saying, "Han Duidui, oh no, my brother and the others are having a party at Tihou. I'm so bored at home alone, I'm scared. Just tell me where the car keys are."

Han Yue rubbed his temples, his heart throbbing. A sigh could be clearly heard coming from the phone. "20 minutes. Wait."

Han Guoguo was surprised, "You're coming to pick me up? No need, I have a driver's license."

Han Yue exposed his shortcomings, "Don't you have any idea how bad you are at navigating? Don't you know you can only go in a straight line and can't go around corners? I'm afraid you'll drive my car to the Pacific Ocean and wreck it."

Han Guoguo: We can't be nice to him, you cheap Han Yue.

Fifteen minutes later, Han Guoguo had changed her clothes—or rather, her pajamas. When Han Yue opened the car door and got out, he saw his sister standing at the villa entrance wearing a gray t-shirt pajama set, with a knot tied at the right side of her waist, revealing a bit of her fair skin.

Han Yue approached and, without saying a word, untied the knot at the waist of Han Guoguo's top. "Can't you just wear your clothes properly? Why do you have to make them look so weird?"

Han Guoguo slapped his hand hard. "Hey, what are you doing? It won't look good if you take it off like that. Don't you know how to appreciate things?" She then tied the knot back up.

Han Yue didn't want to bother with any more trouble and simply opened the driver's seat and got in.

After getting into the car, Han Guoguo said to Han Yue beside her, "I'm going to stay there for a few days. Could you bring my luggage over tomorrow?"

"Come back and get it yourself."

Han Guoguo: "I have no sense of direction."

Han Yue: ".............."

"Running around Beijing in pajamas late at night, are you trying to act crazy?"

Han Guoguo felt that she needed to be immune to being with Han Yue. "You're the one who's crazy. Don't you know what a pajama party is? Xi Xi and the others are all wearing pajamas. I can't fit in."

Han Yue pursed his lips and drove quietly, leaving the bored Han Guoguo to continue rambling about the pajamas.

"Xixi is wearing beige princess-style pajamas tonight, with a flat lace collar. The top and bottom are made of pure cotton and look very cute and princess-like, though a bit conservative. Yaoyao is wearing a gray and white translucent moonlight white satin pajama set, a long top and pants, the more conservative kind, but the fabric is very comfortable. Xiaoxue and Yaoyao are from the same series, but Xiaoxue's is pink. So, to match the atmosphere, do I have to wear pajamas?"

Han Yue was driving intently when he suddenly said, "I'm not planning to set up a pajama factory for you, so you don't need to analyze the fabrics with me."

Han Guoguo gazed at the receding night view outside the window. The night view of the capital was still quite beautiful. "I thought you wanted to know, but I guess I was just being nosy."
