Chapter 235 - 223: Trimming Nails (Third Update)
Yi Luowa and Tong Airui returned home. The atmosphere was a little tense, but come on, this is Yi Luowa we’re talking about—her sweet little mouth worked wonders, and soon enough, she had the two angry men smiling again.
Tong Airui looked at his wife with concern. She wasn’t feeling great herself, yet she still had to cheer up her grandpa and dad.
Finally, the storm clouds lifted for the day. Tong Airui pulled her upstairs, and as they went, he left a parting remark, "Luowa’s going to help me refine the car’s shock absorption issue. We won’t be coming back for the next few days; we’ll stay at the camp."
Everyone understood the implied message: From now on, don’t bother them with household matters.
Long Che watched the couple go upstairs and lowered his voice to ask Tong Yao, "Did you put the stuff in their drawer?"
Tong Yao gave him an exasperated look. "I live with one question: You’re the father-in-law—why do you care about such things? Anyway, yes, I put it in. But your son doesn’t need it for now!"
Long Che frowned in confusion. What did she mean, "doesn’t need it for now"?
Tong Yao rolled her eyes playfully. "Luowa’s been feeling unwell these past few days—her face is practically snow white! Honestly, you’re a piece of work. If you’d just stop meddling, Luowa would’ve been resting by now."
Long Che pursed his lips defiantly. Not sure who’s being troublesome here—him or that old man surnamed Teng.
As for what was placed in the drawer, Tong Airui only discovered it when he went searching for a nail clipper. A drawer packed full of ’tao-tao,’ courtesy of some "well-meaning" soul.
"When I need to get things done, everyone sabotages me. When I don’t need to, they give me this stuff!" Tong Airui grabbed the nail clipper and slammed the drawer shut.
Yi Luowa was sprawled out on the bed and turned her head to glance at him. "What are you muttering about?"
