Chapter One Hundred and One

  "Oh?"

  Unexpectedly, she actually discovered it, but even if she did, there's nothing to be done about the fox's true identity. She had already guessed half of it anyway. What can be done now that Tang Renjie has been exposed?

  "So I asked: 'What kind of person do you think he is?'"

  "Uh..."

  It was another silence, she seemed to have thought for a moment, and then said: "I think he is very likely to be the descendant of some rich people who settled abroad, with a large family in the house, and it's a rich and oily family. Tang Renjie is the only heir of that big family."

  "What's next?"

  Along with her story, I asked.

  "Hmm, then Tang Ren Jie was entrusted by his parents to come alone to China to find his distant relatives with whom he had lost contact for a long time. Since his relatives used to live in our town for a period of time, he intentionally concealed his identity and came to our class..."

  When she sang just right, she stopped on purpose and looked at me with an evil face.

  "What's next?"

  She looked at him with this gaze, making him feel a little flustered for no reason.

  "Hehe, Xia Qinghe, a relative of your family, I don't think I've met many of them. Do you think that Tang Renjie might be your distant cousin or something?"

  "How is that possible." I quickly disassociated myself, waving my hand at her and saying: "Although there aren't many relatives in my family, however, I clearly remember that all the aunts and uncles in my family are farming in the countryside, never remembering having such a rich relative, nor do I have such an arrogant cousin or brother-in-law."

  "That's it, your family has just a few relatives, I've seen them all before."

  Xiao Su tilted her head and thought for a while, then suddenly shouted loudly: "Then do you think the person he's looking for here might be me?"

  "Very likely."

  Facing Xiao Su's expectant face, I nodded and said: "Your family has money, his family also has money, it's possible that you're not only relatives but also have a pre-arranged marriage."

  "Wow, really?"

  Xiao Su suddenly let out another shrill cry, her face filled with excitement as she stared at me.

  "No, I was just joking."

  I coldly retorted with this sentence.

  "Never mind, I'll just pretend I didn't hear that."

  She walked up with big strides, excitedly saying: "Tonight I must catch my dad and interrogate him thoroughly, to ask if among our distant relatives living abroad or in the neighborhood, there is an uncle with the surname Tang, and if that Uncle Tang has a son named Tang Renjie who is both handsome and icy."

  I nodded and smiled: "I guess there will be an uncle with the surname Tang, and you will also have a brother named Tang Renjie."

  "It's no good."

  Xiao Su let out another loud cry of surprise.

  I patted my chest and said to her, "Can't you speak calmly? Why do you have to suddenly let out a loud yell, are you trying to scare me to death?"

  "I suddenly don't want Tang Renjie to be our family's relative anymore."

  Xiao Su's gaze turned to me, his face solemn as he said, "The most tragic thing under the sky is that people with feelings end up becoming siblings. I don't want to encounter such a thing that destroys human nature."

  "Will people with feelings eventually become siblings?" I asked her.

  Xiao Su nodded.

  "Do you like that Tangerine Dream?"

  Nothing.

  She avoided eye contact with me, somewhat embarrassed and said: "He's so handsome, his voice is so good to listen to, and he has such a great personality, whether you like him or not, it's just a matter of time, I'm just being cautious."

  "It's better for you to be his sister since the water from your own field doesn't flow into others' fields." I couldn't help but chuckle and say.

  "It's no use."

  She shook her head and waved her hand, saying: "If he is really a human being and not another species, and is neither my cousin nor Tang Ge, and has no blood relation with me at all, then my goal for the past three years is to catch him."

  "Do you want girls to chase boys?"

  This is hard for me to believe.

  "Nowadays, what kind of society is this? Why can't girls pursue boys? Why can boys choose from tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of girls and freely pick the one they like, then have the nerve to confess? We girls are supposed to just wait around, when there's no boy pursuing us, we're stuck waiting, envying our peers who are being pursued, while we're left alone, like a fool, waiting until some mediocre guys come to confess to us, and by that time, we're not young anymore, and the space for choice is only this small."

  "Why can't we be like boys, choosing the one we like from all over the world and then taking the initiative to confess, regardless of success or failure, what's most important is that we've truly done it."

  I have to say that although she usually doesn't make much sense, but at this moment, what she said, I deeply agree with her and can't help but applaud.

  "I really didn't expect you to say something so reasonable and insightful. It seems I underestimated you before."

  "Hmm."

  She raised her chin, looking at me with a disdainful gaze and said: "Well, I've been dating boys since elementary school, so when it comes to relationships between men and women, I'm absolutely familiar with them. However, for someone like you who has never had a boyfriend and only kissed a stuffed fox, it's perfectly normal that you can't say anything. In front of me, you don't need to be humble."

  "I don't have to be humble."

  I never thought that if I didn't have a romantic relationship, I would feel inferior.

  "Alright, alright, don't be self-deprecating anymore, sister won't say more to you."

  Xiao Su rushed over with a package in her arms, and with one hand, she pulled me into her embrace. She leaned in close to my ear and whispered menacingly, "Do you want to help your sister out?"

  I hastily shook my head.

  "Good sister, I knew you'd help."

  She seemed not to have seen me shake my head and continued: "Take a look, who is the man in black suit on the opposite side of the road?"

  "Dad."

  I didn't even lift my head and replied directly.

  "No way, seeing my dad here, how can I get excited?"

  She pulled at my sleeve, tugging hard and urging: "Quickly look, look at the person wearing a black suit on the opposite side of the road."

  "Alright, alright."

  I had no choice but to listen to her, turned my head and looked over, the man in black suit, from the left side of the opposite road glanced at the right corner of the highway, really didn't see anyone special.

  "Xiao Su, you wouldn't be trying to tell me that after just breaking up with Chen Jie, you're now extremely emotionally unstable and have given up all hope on young men, and are now setting your sights on middle-aged uncles?"
