"Wanwan, are you busy today?" Tong Nuanchen's voice on the phone was trembling, as if he had made a great decision.

"I'm not busy. What's the matter?" Tong Nuanwan put down the list in her hand and walked out of the office door.

"Not busy...please ask for a leave. I have something to tell you."

"I'm going home now."

"Don't go home, come to the North City Hotel."

Tong Nuanwan hung up the phone and went to Beicheng Hotel.

Tong Nuanchen took Tong Nuanwan to a separate private room.

Tong Nuanchen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the private room, overlooking the scenery outside the window.

The high-rise buildings are arranged in an orderly manner, and the roads are interconnected, allowing for unobstructed travel.

"This private room is not booked, let's talk here." Tong Nuanchen did not look back and still stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Sister, what happened?"

"Wanwan, look at this huge North City, it is so prosperous and full of lights. People are rushing here and there, just to have a hot meal at home."

“Sister…” Tong Nuanwan wanted to put her hand on Tong Nuanchen’s shoulder, but that skinny body was already carrying too much, and she was worried that her hand would crush her sister.

"Wanwan, I once thought that family love was the strongest emotion in the world," Tong Nuanchen turned around and looked at Tong Nuanwan, "Who knew it was even more fragile, and it could give in to any emotion."

Tong Nuanwan hugged Tong Nuanchen and closed her eyes. Did she already guess what happened?

"It's just... I thought about it and I want to transfer the house to Mingxu."

Tong Nuanwan did not answer. After a moment, she let go of Tong Nuanchen, took Tong Nuanchen's hand, and sat on the chair.

They didn't speak, as if they didn't know what words to use to describe the family love they valued.

"Sister, I'm not plotting against Mingxu, but... I feel that Chen Xinyan can't tolerate us. Before I got married, I cooked for Chen Xinyan and washed her clothes, but she always bothered me. If we lose this house, I will have nothing. What will you do, sister?"

"I know, and that's why I made this decision. I still have half of the loan on the house. If I transfer the house, I will definitely not repay the loan. I can use the remaining money as a down payment on a house."

"Sister, buying a house is not something you can just talk about casually."

She knew very well how much thought went into buying this house. If she bought a house now, it would be like starting from scratch.

"I know, but it's not that difficult. When people are pushed into a corner, their potential is endless. We have no home to begin with, and we drifted here. Wherever we land is home."

"Sister, I'm married and I have a place to live, so what can you do?"

"The hotel has staff dormitories. After I transfer the ownership of the house, I will move to the hotel. They can do whatever they want with the house! Mingxu has grown up and has his own home. We will also have our own home. Growing up is not easy. We should cherish it. However..." Tong Nuanchen patted Tong Nuanwan's hand, "You probably won't get the money back. You have been frugal for so many years, but in the end it's all for nothing."

"Why did Mingxu become like this?"

"After our parents left, all we cared about was eating well, wearing warm clothes and going to school. Fifteen years have passed, and everything has changed."

"Sister, we bought this house so that we could have a home, but now... we have nothing."

"Wanwan, we are already exhausted. We can't continue to waste our energy for people who don't care about us."

Tong Nuanwan nodded.

"Okay, I'll go discuss it with them then. Wanwan, no matter how hard it is, we have to persevere."

Tong Nuanwan hugged Tong Nuanchen, blinking her eyelids violently, leaving the tears in her eyeballs.

Tong Nuanchen turned and left, not daring to look at Tong Nuanwan's expression. Tong Nuanwan followed her out of the private room.
