"Tong!"
"Sister? You're home!" Fang Tong stepped forward and held Fang Xin's wrist. "You're finally home! I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
"Nonsense!" Fang Xin poked at Fang Tong's forehead in annoyance as she looked at her and said, "Who sent you back just now?"
Fang Tong's expression changed. "You saw."
"Was it Zhong Yang?"
Although Fang Xin had been busy with the Xi Qin Group's business overseas for the past few years, she had always been concerned about her younger sister's relationships so she naturally knew about Zhong Yang.
"Yes!" Fang Tong nodded.
Fang Xin was about to say something when she realized that the two of them were standing at the gates of the Gu residence. There were too many people and too many eyes here. If someone with ill intentions heard them, information may get to the old master and Mrs. Gu and that would be bad news for Fang Tong.
"Forget it, let's talk inside."
The two sisters went into the house together. Old Master Gu and Bai Ping were already asleep, so they went straight to the second floor.
"Come in, Sister."
Fang Xin frowned. "Gu Nancheng is here. Let's talk in my bedroom!"
Fang Tong said nonchalantly, "He can't hear us. I've been wearing high heels all day and I really don't want to walk anymore."
Fang Tong kicked off her heels and then unzipped her dress, removed it and changed into comfortable home clothes.
Fang Xin was stunned. "Do you usually change like this?"
"Yes! What's wrong?"
"But Gu Nancheng..." Fang Xin wanted to say that there was still a man in the room.
Fang Tong burst into laughter. "Sister, even if Gu Nancheng is here, what do you think he can see?"
That's true also.
Fang Xin looked at the unconscious Gu Nancheng and frowned slightly. "Has the doctor come to see him recently? is his condition getting better?"
"Fu Yan comes every two or three days. He always says that his vitals are normal and that he could wake up soon, but there are no signs of him waking up." Fang Tong hugged a pillow and sat cross-legged on the bed. She patted the space next to her, inviting her sister to sit down.
"But he looks much better nowadays, and the nutrient solution can be injected into him. He's even fatter than when I first moved in!"
Fang Xin was not used to sitting on other people's bed. She found a chair and sat down. "It must be hard on Auntie, having to protect her son and the Gu family."
"Indeed! That's why I can't leave the Gu family at this time. Look at how good my mother-in-law is to me. Even when it's about you, she does her best."
"But what about Zhong Yang?"
"I've already made it very clear to him."
Fang Tong continued plainly, "Sister, even without Gu Nancheng, it's impossible for Zhong Yang and I to be together! I can't forget the cold and even disgusted attitude of the Zhong family when something happened to our family. They don't want me, but a daughter-in-law from the Fang family. I wouldn't be happy if I married into such a family."
If it was in the past, Fang Xin might have advised Fang Tong to be more optimistic, but she had just come out of a failed marriage. Fang Xin felt that no man could be relied on.
"Since you've thought it through, I won't say anything more! Actually, I came back today because I have something to tell you."
"What's that?"
"Qin Jianmin has transferred some money to me. Although he still owes me much more, the funds on hand are enough to buy back our clothing factory. I hope you can come and help me."
Fang Tong's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly nodded. "Sister, whatever you need, I'll do my best ."
