It seemed that she had hit Jin Lin's weak spot. She slumped onto the sofa, trying but failing to regain her composure. After a while, she decided to gloss over the matter, saying laboriously through gritted teeth, "I don't have a place to stay upon my return to the country, I need to live here for now."
"I will send someone to pick you up and arrange for a hotel," Shi Yuhuan replied.
"I don't want to live in a hotel, I want to stay at your place. After all, I am your aunt. I've come from far away to see you, you shouldn't lodge me at a hotel. If your mother....."
As she spoke, she slapped herself hard on the cheek, then remorsefully looked at Shi Yuhuan.
Seeing Yuhuan's negligent and unmoved expression, she changed her tone and said, "I speak fast and don't think much before I do, you know that. I won't speak further, but I know you understand what I was going to say."
Shi Yuhuan glanced at her with a deep, inscrutable gaze that seemed as cold and fathomless as the abyss.
