Chapter 336 Lost the Target?
Thanks to the little raccoon who made the introduction, and Tong Yao’s charming personality, she struck up a connection with Wang Chun without trying to curry favor, but also without maintaining distance. The two slowly became friends.
Tong Yao realized that Wang Chun was kind-hearted and had a deep affection for small animals. She didn’t put on airs, she had a harmonious relationship with her husband, and she maintained a peaceful home life. Due to Wang Chun’s concerns about her safety, she didn’t welcome having many friends around.
Although Wang Chun appeared to be alone when she came out, a bodyguard was always following her in secret. For instance, when she was at Tong Yao’s shop, the bodyguard would observe from across the street.
The more Tong Yao got to know Wang Chun, the more she liked her personality. Wang Chun was open and gentle, spoke her mind, disliked pretense, and was disinclined to show off her wealth. Tong Yao thought about her initial motive for befriending Wang Chun and suddenly felt guilty for taking advantage of her sincerity.
However, without Wang Chun’s help, buying a house would indeed be difficult. Even Tong Yao, who was usually decisive, was finding it hard to make a decision, tossing and turning sleeplessly at night.
Si Chen, who was reading a book at the head of the bed, set down his book and asked with concern, "Something on your mind?"
Tong Yao initially did not plan to discuss this with Si Chen; she was afraid that as a man who was known to be forthright, he might not accept her cunning side. However, since Si Chen asked, after a moment of hesitation, she decided to share her thoughts.
Tong Yao sat up and said gloomily, "Ahchen, remember when I mentioned earlier that I had a way to buy a house? Actually, that way was to make friends with a specific goal in mind. My original intent was to buy a house, but I later found out that Wang Chun was a good person, and she was not even slightly on guard against me. I suddenly felt guilty for using her in this way."
