Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

She cries all the time, as if everyone in the world has let her down. It's so boring.

In comparison, Tang Ting is more likable.

When he thought of Tang Ting, Lin Yaozong became even more depressed.

Fortunately, there were no more unexpected problems afterwards.

After dinner, the Lin and Xu families left the Yuan family.

On the way back, Xu Wanning told her second aunt about the matter of transferring Tang Ting's household registration.

"In theory, since she already has a job, she can register her household registration at the school. This procedure is very easy to handle."

Xu Wanning explained: "Tang Ting asked the school, and due to certain policies, the whole process would take at least three months. But their family... In short, they encountered some very difficult problems. She was worried that her parents and other elders in the family would use her marriage as a threat and force her to marry someone she didn't like, so she wanted to move her household registration out as soon as possible."

Second Aunt didn’t know what exactly happened in Tang Ting’s family, but she had heard of many cases where parents had to forcefully decide their marriage partners for them.

Some girls, due to their lack of ability and weak character, can only obey their parents' arrangements and marry someone they don't like.

Some girls already have someone in their heart, and because of their strong personalities, they don't want to commit themselves to someone they don't like, so they commit suicide and other drastic reactions, and lose their lives in vain.

Precisely because she had seen too many similar cases, Second Aunt was somewhat worried about Tang Ting’s situation.

After all, she is Xu Wanning's good friend, so I should help her if I can.

"I just heard you say that she has already bought a house? Did she buy it independently?"

"Yes. She has been running a boutique with me and has made some money, enough to buy a not-too-big house in Beijing. The house is registered in her own name and is considered her personal property. It has nothing to do with her family."

"In that case, we can consider moving her household registration out and registering it directly in her house. We just need the cooperation of the Housing Authority so that the procedures can be processed faster. Otherwise, it will take several more months if we delay it."

"Then I'll go ask my uncle. After I find out the necessary procedures, I'll let Tang Ting handle it. I'll have to trouble you, my second aunt, for help then."

"Look at what you said. We're family, but you're still being polite to your second aunt? Your second aunt is also very happy to be able to help you and your friends."

The truth is, after returning from Heilongjiang Province, Xu Wanning has behaved so well that she is no longer the child who needed help from her family for everything before going to the countryside.

Moreover, over the past few years, the family has benefited from Xu Wanning, and now that she can help Xu Wanning, Second Aunt is really happy.

Xu Wanning found her uncle again and told him what had just happened.

"Your second aunt is right. In theory, this is feasible. But the procedures may be a little troublesome. But it doesn't matter. Take your time to take her to see Secretary Chen, and Secretary Chen will help you arrange it."

"Thank you, uncle! Because this matter concerns Tang Ting's happiness for the rest of her life, I won't be polite to you!"

When they reached the fork in the road, Xu Wanning was still thinking about going to the boutique to find Tang Ting, so she said goodbye to her family and left.

Lin Yaozong originally wanted to follow along and had walked for some distance when he suddenly thought of Tang Ting's ambiguous attitude towards him, and he paused again.

He is currently unsure what Tang Ting thinks of him. What if he keeps getting closer to her and really makes her angry?

Let's just wait and wait for his sister to give him feedback.

Xu Wanning went straight to the boutique and opened the locked door with the key.

There was no one on the first floor, so she went directly to the third floor, and sure enough, she found Tang Ting in the bedroom.

Not only Tang Ting was there, but Chen Qiaoqiao was also there.

One of them was lying on the bed, and the other was curled up on the sofa, each holding a book in their hands, reading with great interest.

"Wan Ning, you're here!" Tang Ting put down the book in her hand and jumped up from the bed. "Are you done with your work?"

"Today is not my home court. After my aunt and the others finished discussing things, they had a meal and then left. Qiaoqiao is here too."

"I called Qiaoqiao." Tang Ting sat next to Chen Qiaoqiao. "I thought, it's Chinese New Year and we're alone and helpless, so why not spend the New Year together?"

Chen Qiaoqiao pinched Tang Ting through her thick cotton coat and said unhappily, "When you called me, you clearly said that you were bored staying in the boutique and couldn't leave, so you asked me to bring some books to you!"

"Hey, the result is the same, right? Don't you have to stay with me for the next few days to celebrate the New Year?"

"Okay, okay, I'll spend the New Year with you, okay!"

Chen Qiaoqiao had already heard from Tang Ting what she had experienced, and was also worried that in the next few days, if Wang Jianqin instigated Brother Tang to cause trouble for Tang Ting, she would inevitably be unable to cope with it alone. Having her by her side would make things a little better.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else first. Tell me about you and Lin Yaozong."

Xu Wanning got straight to the point, her tone was straightforward, leaving no room for Tang Ting: "I remember before I went to Heilongjiang Province, you told me that you had taken a fancy to Lin Yaozong and wanted to get in touch with him. What about now? Did you feel that he was not suitable after getting to know him, or was there another reason?"

"Tang Ting, I told you from the beginning that your purpose in getting close to Lin Yaozong was not pure. Although you are my good friend, Lin Yaozong is my cousin, and I cannot accept that you would hurt him because of this. Now, what exactly do you think? I hope you can tell me everything, for the sake of our friendship."

After listening to Xu Wanning's words, Tang Ting was silent for a long time.

She curled herself up on the sofa, holding a pillow in her arms, not daring to look at Xu Wanning.

She knew that what she did was not fair.

"Don't think you can get over this matter by just keeping silent." Xu Wanning's voice was still cold.

Tang Ting had no choice but to raise her head and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "I didn't hurt Lin Yaozong, and I didn't want to hurt Lin Yaozong. I just... I just don't know how to face him."

"I admit that at first I was tempted to get in touch with Lin Yaozong because he met all the requirements. But as I got to know him better, I found that I really liked him. I have never met anyone who is so compatible with me."

"But Wan Ning, you know, I was almost killed by that scumbag... I also have such a bad family background, I can't become a burden to Lin Yaozong."

"So, you actually like him, right?"
