Chapter 585: Where’s The Other One?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at what they had done, Xiang Wan actually had mixed feelings about it.

She knew that it was Xie Wanwan’s goodwill and not wanting to create trouble for her.

Seems like she should be glad.

Now, she could interpret this as having three more helpers to take care of the house.

Xiang Wan tied up her hair and smiled. Then she sorted out the shopping bags to place the stuff into their respective places.

At this moment, Xie Wanwan sent a message to her.

“I went out to meet an investor today and left before you came back. My apologies… We won’t be coming back for dinner so please don’t wait for us. You two can have some time to yourselves tonight. Enjoy your dinner~”

Problem was, circumstances wouldn’t allow them to have a romantic dinner.

Bai Muchuan most likely wouldn’t make it back for dinner, he might not even come back home.

Xiang Wan sat on the sofa idly. She looked at her mobile phone and started to take some selfies.

Undoubtedly, Xiang Wan was beautiful in the pictures.

But if compared to Xie Wanwan’s pictures, there was no “wow” factor…

Xiang Wan suddenly had an urge to laugh at herself.

She knew she was envious and a little jealous at the same time when she had such strange thoughts.

She patted her face a few times to sober up and replied to the message.

“Alright, please be safe.”

Without the guests at home, Xiang Wan felt more at ease.

She could do whatever she wanted since she was home alone.

She wrote her story for a while and felt too lazy to cook lunch. She simply warmed up the leftover food from the morning as her meal.

In the afternoon, she started to prepare the ingredients to make some soup for dinner. After that, she carried Blackie to the living room and wrote her story.

After Blackie played with her for a while, he started to feel sleepy and slept in an especially strange but adorable position.

Some sunlight shone inside the house. She looked up with her eyes narrowed and saw a sight—the windows seemed to be dyed in shimmering gold. The sunlight was also clear and warm.

Such a moment in time…

It was comfortable and relaxing.

As if it brightened up her life.

Xiang Wan yawned and stretched herself. For the first time, she was actually eager for the case to be solved as soon as possible.

So that Bai Muchuan could make good on his promise…

“Women often regard marriage as the shelter of life. Yet they always end up being hurt by its shackles. Rong Xiaonuan was an independent woman – her head told her that women shouldn’t have too many expectations for marriage. Nonetheless, if her future spouse was Fang Yelan, even if she would end up getting hurt, she was willing to give it a shot.”

While Xiang Wan wrote this, the sound of the keyboard seemed especially loud.

These words that she typed on the document, were a little bashful.

As if being wrapped in warmth and a little worried about the future, emotions start to well within her.

She wrote a lot and the chapter was especially lengthy.

However, it mostly consisted of her emotional thoughts and feelings…

In the end, when she read through them, she deleted everything.

With regards to all these emotional thoughts and feelings, only those who had the same emotions could feel the same as her.

For those who didn’t feel the same as her, the author’s thoughts and opinions might be seen as complaining when no actual pain was being experienced.

Delete!

Delete!

Delete!

She felt heartache for the deleted portions that she had written.

When these emotional parts got deleted, her heart was back to normal…

She was back to her usual self—the rational and clear-headed Xiang Wan.

“So, you’re telling me that you’ve wasted your afternoon writing something that you’ve deleted, is that right?” Fang Yuanyuan called her up and deeply sympathized that her love rival had moved in to stay with them. “Do you want to know why you wasted the whole afternoon writing a heap of emotional stuff that you trashed?” Fang Yuanyuan seemed to have arrived at a conclusion.

Xiang Wan replied lazily, “Why?”

Fang Yuanyuan tittered. “This is because you’re feeling insecure and your emotions got to you. You actually do mind her moving in a lot yet you got tagged as a friend and you couldn’t refuse her… In simpler terms, it’s as if you tasted some bitter gourd and felt peeved inside, yet you have to say… ‘Wah, it’s sweet’!”

“Hahah! Just scram!”

“Admit it, girl. You are not as magnanimous as you make yourself out to be… I don’t believe that any woman will like the woman who likes her husband. I also don’t believe that both of you can get along under one roof and behave like each other’s bestie…”

“Well… She no longer likes Bai Muchuan,” remarked Xiang Wan.

“Are you sure? If she didn’t like Bai Muchuan, why would she do this?”

Fang Yuanyuan’s opinion on Xie Wanwan was more towards the negative side. She kept “educating” Xiang Wan. “The man she likes already has a girlfriend yet she still chose to come between you two. I don’t believe that her life is being threatened. She’s just trying ways and means to come near him. Come to your senses, cousin!”

“…”

Xiang Wan remained silent for a while.

“What if she’s telling the truth? That she thinks her life is being threatened?”

“So what if that’s the case? Are you the police?”

“Bai Muchuan’s the police.” Xiang Wan then mulled over for a moment and continued. “In fact, I really believe that Xie Wanwan has put her feelings towards Bai Muchuan behind her. She’s someone with very high self-esteem. If she loves Bai Muchuan, she wouldn’t be willing to be looked down upon by Bai Muchuan… Therefore, if this is not a matter of necessity, it would be that she has already put Bai Muchuan behind her.”

“Did you hurt your head or something?”

“No, I’m perfectly fine,” said Xiang Wan calmly, “if she still likes him, she wouldn’t have done this risky act which could cause him to loathe her entirely in his heart…”

What?!

Fang Yuanyuan had to hand it off to her.

“Miss, do you have any misconceptions about women?”

Xiang Wan: “… Not everyone thinks the same as you, alright?”

“Come on, just listen to me.” Fang Yuanyuan behaved like a frustrated bestie whose words were not being heeded. She wished she could fly to the Capital and chase that “vixen” out of the house personally. Her words were filled with pain and bitterness…

She tried her best to convince her.

Of course, she had Xiang Wan’s best interests at heart.

Xiang Wan did not know if she should be annoyed or amused.

“You should take good care of your Huanghuang first! When he gets better, you can come here and keep me company.”

“No, no, no! I’ll come tomorrow, no, two days later. I need to help you keep an eye on them, otherwise you wouldn’t even know if your house got torn down…”

“…”

Did she think of her as such a weak person?

“Geez, let me ask you this,” Xiang Wan puffed a sigh. “If Xie Wanwan came to seek help from us yet I chase her out mercilessly and something bad really happened, what kind of trouble do you think I will be in? I can already foresee drowning in a sea of malicious remarks and held as the epitome of a vicious woman who left her in the lurch. Besides, she has helped out Little Bai greatly in the past, it might’ve even been something that she put her life down for… Otherwise, Little Bai wouldn’t have told me he owed her.”

Fang Yuanyuan: “So? You’re being kinda bound on moral grounds?”

She might be right.

It did feel a little like that.

Xiang Wan looked around the house which was clean and tidy and consoled herself.

“Just forget it, she seems to be quite dependable actually.”

“Hurhurhur, Xiang Wan, kindness is a disease. Cure it!”

When Fang Yuanyuan was teaching her about how to identify a scheming b*tch, the doorbell rang.

“I gotta go. Someone’s at the door.” Xiang Wan was glad the doorbell rang at this moment and ended the call.

Through the peephole, Xiang Wan saw that it was Xie Wanwan and one of her assistants.

Xie Wanwan’s cap was lowered and through the peephole, she seemed uneasy and looked weary.

Xiang Wan stood for two seconds then she opened the door.

“You’re back?”

She had a smile on her face.

But that was just a smile that she had plastered on.

She suddenly thought of what Fang Yuanyuan had said – that she was actually feeling peeved inside?

Somehow, after thinking about this, she actually smiled, sincerely.

Xie Wanwan was dazed for a moment when she saw her smile and was a little infected by it.

“My apologies, did I disturb you?”

Xiang Wan replied, “It’s okay.”

The next moment, she felt that her reply might be too polite. When she passed a pair of slippers to Xie Wanwan, she asked another question.

“I thought you mentioned you have an appointment tonight? You’re back rather early.”

“I…”

A dark glint flashed past Xie Wanwan’s eyes.

That was just an instant and she showed a smile. “It ended early so we came back.”

Xiang Wan asked with a smile, “Do you still want dinner?”

Xie Wanwan turned towards the kitchen and smelt the aroma of food.

“Would that be too much of a trouble for you?”

“Nope.” Xiang Wan was friendly.

“That’s great. I’ve not tasted home-cooked food for a long time. Hmm, actually, it’s not that long but the flavor from the memory is almost gone.”

Xie Wanwan sounded a little blue.

Xiang Wan halted her steps. “I heard that celebrities don’t really take meals so as to stay in shape?”

Pffft!

Xie Wanwan cracked up. “Yeah, and the frequency is high. But when I thought of the fact that you’re the one making dinner, I feel like eating already.”

“Alright then, since you say so, I think I have to cook for you every day…”

“No, no, no, just once will do! If you cook for me every day, Little Bai is going to chase me out the door.”

Xiang Wan shrugged, showed a smile and went to the kitchen.

She was a decisive person.

Since she accepted the arrangement, she would not make things difficult for them.

Although Xie Wanwan was now here with them, Xiang Wan could still live comfortably.

The three of them quickly cleaned and laid the dining table.

Before dinner was served, Xiang Wan also sent a message to Bai Muchuan to ask if he would be coming back for dinner.

Unless something unusual happened, he would not be back.

Without him at home, Xiang Wan would actually feel more comfortable.

After all, the guests were women…

When she thought of this, Xiang Wan suddenly looked towards Xie Wanwan.

“Umm, isn’t there supposed to be one more person?”

Only then, she noticed that Xie Wanwan only brought back a female assistant with her.

The three of them came this morning.

And the three of them went out together.

But when they came back, there were only two of them.

Xiang Wan noticed that the atmosphere wasn’t quite right when she asked that question. Subconsciously, it piqued her curiosity and made her more focused.

She took a glance at Xie Wanwan and noticed a faint reddish mark on Xie Wanwan’s neck.

Xie Wanwan was also quite fair. Even though the reddish mark had faded somewhat, the mark was still visible. It didn’t seem like the mark was an accidental scratch…
