Xiao Qian really liked money, but she couldnât buy the obedience of her ex-rival in love with money. Instead, she preferred to rip off Ye Xiaoyu and receive a different kind of reward, which was quite satisfying.
After reaching an agreement, Xiao Qian sent Professor Liu home from the hospital.
â5,000 for an hour?â Professor Liu asked with a dangerous tone as he buckled his seat belt.
Without turning on the air conditioner, they already felt a chill. Xiao Qian answered with a smile on her face.
âI occasionally do charity work, never forget the original intention!â
Professor Liu was amused, but when he thought about it, Xiao Qian did indeed do some charity work this time, even though it also had the suspicion of cleaning up her ex-rival in love. Overall, her performance was not bad.
âSteel Cannon, why are you so devoted to this child? You donât need to be with a depression patient day and night, do you?â
Moving the patient to the house opposite to hers seemed a little too devoted.
For a black-hearted doctor who dared to charge people 5,000 and even more, Xiao Qian cared a lot about the younger sister of her ex-rival in love.

âThatâs my original intention.â Xiao Qian looked straight ahead and drove steadily.
Professor Liu understood it as Xiao Qianâs original intention to treat patients with benevolence.
But what Xiao Qian was thinking about was her little angel, Xiao Wei. If Xiao Wei asked her to save someone, she would do her best to save them.
Three days later, Xiao Qian got up at noon, and the diligent Yu Liumei had her breakfast and lunch ready on the table, standing by the window with a towel on her head.
âSister-in-law, good afternoon!â
âWhy did you make this hairstyle?â Xiao Qian asked, puzzled.
âI have a job interview this afternoon, Iâm afraid my hair will get greasy from cooking. Sister-in-law, donât you think I look like a teacher now?â Liumei made a serious posture, and Xiao Qian nodded.
âPretty good.â
She remembered that Yu Liumei had an interview at a private middle school this afternoon to be a PE teacher.
âSomeone is moving in. It seems like someone is coming to our house across the street. You eat first, sister-in-law; Iâll go check.â Liumei was kind-hearted, but Xiao Qian stopped her.
âNo need to check. Sheâll come to us on her own later. Weâll have someone to help us with housework in the future.â Xiao Qian ate soup leisurely, and with her silk pajamas on, she indeed gave off a landlady vibe.
âAh! Itâs her! Isnât she the radio host?â Liumei recognized her, the one with delicate makeup and sunglasses who came out of the car was the host she had seen on stage two days ago. It was said that she came to do an interactive outdoor program for the radio station.
âSheâll also have another identity, which is our free laborer. Donât be too polite to her. Write down the dishes you want for dinner and let her buy groceries and cook. Also, let her wash our clothes.â
ââ¦Sister-in-law, is this appropriate?â Liumei didnât know much about Ye Xiaoyu and felt a bit reluctant to let such a beautiful girl do the chores.
She and Xiao Qian lived together, taking turns to do housework. Xiao Qian didnât cook, so she washed clothes while Liumei cooked, and they both cleaned the house when they had time.
âThis person had a crush on your brother in high school. Now she needs my help, so I want to train her. Do you understand?â
Yu Liumei understood immediately and stood up.
âWhat are you looking for?â Xiao Qian asked curiously.
âI remember I have a pair of dirty running shoes that need cleaning. Let her do it.â Dare to ruin the perfect marriage of her brother and sister-in-law? Unforgivable!
Pfft! Xiao Qian laughed.
âMy martial arts master has a famous saying: people who think too much do so because they are idle. Sister-in-law, rest assured, I will keep her so busy she wonât have time to think about other peopleâs husbands!ââGood~â The boss loves such a good roommate, one that can instantly understand.
After the meal, the doorbell rang on time, and Ye Xiaoyu was there, carrying a small bag and wearing sunglasses, looking like a big star. Beside her was the pale Ye Xiaowei, who had just come out of the hospital.
âSister Meiwei!â Seeing Xiao Qian, Ye Xiaowei showed a brilliant smile.
âThe little beauty is here~â Xiao Qian reached out and hugged her.
âI heard that I could live with sister and was so happy. I didnât expect to be neighbors with Sister Meiwei too. Wow, am I dreaming?â Weiwei had dark circles under her eyes, looking tired, but trying hard to smile.
It was hard to imagine that this child tried to commit suicide with such extreme measures just a few days ago. Her radiant smile made Yu Liumei, who was meeting her for the first time, feel very fond of her.
Even Ye Xiaoyu felt that her sisterâs condition didnât seem that serious; after being discharged from the hospital, she had been trying hard to smile and chattering with everyone in her now-hoarse voice from stomach pumping.
Only Xiao Qian could sense the helplessness of the child, who was pretending to be cheerful.
In fact, she couldnât really smile and didnât feel happy at all. She just thought that if she behaved like this, the people around her would feel more at ease. The child was forcing herself.
âItâs okay, you donât have to smile if you canât. Do whatever you want here.â Xiao Qian hugged Ye Xiaowei, and after feeling her stiff body, her pity for the girl increased.
She was not much older than her own brother, but Chen Zilong was an utterly heartless person, always laughing and never taking anything to heart.
Being truly heartless and pretending to be cheerful are two different feelings. Itâs like wearing a mask while your soul watches everything without any fluctuations from above, yet your body still has to pretend to fit into society. Knowing that behaving this way would make the people around her feel at ease, so she tried hard to disguise herself.
But this way, itâs even more painful. Xiao Qian took her hand and made Ye Xiaowei sit on the sofa, then called Liumei over.
âMeizi, tell her what we want for dinner tonight. Once Comrade Xiao Yu arrives, our hourly worker and shift worker can take a break.â
When have we ever had hourly workers, Sister-in-law? Yu Liumei winks at Xiao Qian.
Now we do! Isnât it Ye Xiaoyu? Xiao Qian winks back at her.
Oh, I get it!
âWell, Comrade Xiao Yu, my sister-in-law and I are not picky eaters. Letâs have something light for tonight, like Buddha Jumps Over the Wall or something like that.â
âYou want to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?â Ye Xiaoyu thought, why not choke them to death?
âLetâs save that for another day; letâs have something simple instead. Can you make Northeastern stew? Letâs have that and then Cold Noodles, Fried Pork in Scoop, and Five-Color Steamed Buns for the staple food. Make sure itâs nutritious. Also, buy some beer to put in the fridge. My sister-in-law and I occasionally like to have a drink. And about the midnight snackâ¦â
As Yu Liumei said each dish, Ye Xiaoyuâs face turned greener.
âCan I order takeout?â
Xiao Qian looked up and saw that Ye Xiaoyu was already helpless when met with her all-knowing gaze, âFine, you canât; I get it!â
She wanted to keep a straight face, but when she saw her sisterâs clear eyes, she had to restrain her anger.
So she put on a smiling face, âWeiwei, what would you like to eat? Sister will cook for you.â
âIâm not picky.â Weiwei didnât feel like eating anything; even eating had become a pain.
âPrepare a balanced meal for her, in addition to the dishes mentioned above, make some Large Shrimp for Weiwei. From now on, this child will eat with us.â Xiao Qian looked at Ye Xiaoyu, who was about to lose her temper, and seriously added.
âIâm not teasing you this time; food is also a way of treatment.â
Ye Xiaoyu took a deep breath, fine, Iâll endure it!
