“Alright, alright. Don’t stand outside. Let’s talk inside the house.” Duan Yarong saw the old master being condemned by his grandchildren. She could not help but laugh a little and tried to help him out.

After saying that, he also took the initiative to take An Yue’s hand and led her inside. “When I heard that you are coming over today, I specially asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of food. I don’t know what you and Chen like to eat, so if you don’t like the food, you must tell me.”

An Yue’s nerves were finally eased a little by Duan Yarong’s friendly attitude. She smiled a little and said, “I am not very picky, Chen … Chen prefers to eat spicy and sweet things. He doesn’t really like to eat sour things.”

An Yue and An Qi grew up in the orphanage. Although they did not starve, the food there was not very good. As long as the food was not too horrible, they were fine with everything.

As for Han Yichen, after An Yue took him back, although the two girls and he were not exactly ‘living together’, all the food he ate was personally made by An Yue.

Although Han Yichen always pulled a poker face and he did not show any expression when he was eating, An Yue, who was attentive, still noticed what he liked.

When Duan Yarong heard An Yue’s words, her eyes lit up. The way she looked at An Yue became even softer.

From what she heard from Zhao Youlin, this young girl had only met Han Yichen for over four months. And these four months included the month that Han Yichen left, which meant she had only spent time with Han Yichen for over three months.

She had taken in An Yue’s dependence on Han Yichen and Han Yichen’s doting on An Yue.

Now that she heard An Yu being able to say Han Yichen’s preference accurately, she could see that the girl really cared about Han Yichen. She was attentive and she knew how to take care of him.

After that, Duan Yarong could no longer hide her smile. “Okay. It is still early now. I will ask the kitchen to keep your preference in mind. Let’s go there and have a chat. We will eat later.”

“Okay.”

An Yue obediently let Duan Yarong lead her to the living room and take a seat. After Han Yichen handed the gifts he prepared in advance to the maids on the side, he followed Zhao Youlin and the others into the room.

“Is it okay if I call you Yue Yue?” Duan Yarong asked with a smile as she held one of An Yue’s hands.

An Yue was a little stunned before she nodded hastily.

“How old are you, Yue Yue? Can you tell me about your family?”

Actually, Duan Yarong had already asked Zhao Youlin about her background before, but some things were always better to hear from the person herself.

When An Yue heard Duan Yarong ask about her family background, a trace of panic and concern could not help but emerge in her eyes.

She did not know what she should say, but she suddenly saw Han Yichen, who was sitting across from her, fixed his gaze on her. There was some encouragement in his eyes.

An Yue’s heart settled down at once. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “I am 22 years old. There are only two people at home, my sister and myself. We grew up together inside the orphanage, without parents.”

“You have a sister?”

“Yes! My sister … My sister and I are not related by blood, but we both grew up together. My sister is a little older than me. She has been taking care of me as if I were her own sister or her own child since we were little. I also … I have always treated her as my own sister as well.”

After An Yue finished saying that, she nervously clenched her hand that was not held by Duan Yarong and subconsciously lowered her head, as she was afraid to see a trace of shock and disgust from Duan Yarong’s eyes.

Over the past ten years or so, she and An Qi had suffered too much cold treatment because of their background.

At first, she was still little. She did not understand why her classmates and partners around her would often say that she and her sister were unwanted illegitimate children.

At that time, she hid behind her sister every time. She helplessly watched those people insulting and slandering them with a disdainful expression on their faces. Then, she watched her sister take her away in an angry and helpless manner. And then, her sister would secretly cry in the night and try to avoid letting her see it.

Later, as she grew older, she realized that they were really unwanted children. She had no parents, and even her sister was not related to her, but did it really matter?

They had lived together for more than twenty years. Even if they were not related by blood, the bond they had was deeper than anyone in this world.

Therefore, the moment An Yue lowered her head, she had already begun to think that if this person in front of her, Han Yichen’s mother could not accept her, could not accept her sister, she would never give up her sister for this place that could become her future home.

An Yue was still preparing herself internally when she heard Duan Yarong suddenly mused after staying silent for a moment, “So, your sister must have suffered a lot for you. If there is a chance, bring her over to our place. After all, we will be a family soon.”

An Yue suddenly widened her eyes and stared dumbfoundedly at Duan Yarong, who did not show the expression of disdain she had envisioned and was still as gentle and affable as before.

She opened her mouth and after a long moment of pause, she uttered a word. “Okay.”

When Zhao Youlin and Han Yichen saw this, a smile crossed their eyes. They knew that An Yue had truly accepted Duan Yarong.

After that, Duan Yarong continued to ask about An Yue’s information. She also asked about Han Yichen and the details of the process of the two from meeting each other to falling in love.

An Yue was really shy, her face was reddened from those questions, but she still intermittently answered all of Duan Yarong’s questions.

Just when An Yue felt like her head was going to be melted by the emerging heat, Uncle Zhao’s timely appearance finally rescued her from Duan Yarong’s excessive enthusiasm.

“Old Master, Master, Madam, Young Master, Young Lady, the lunch is ready. Would you like to …”

“Oh, look at the time now. I am getting forgetful. I was so indulged in the conversation that I forgot other things. You guys must be hungry. Let’s have some lunch first. We will talk later.”

An Yue was slightly relieved. She cast a grateful look toward Uncle Zhao, who politely returned a smile.

Zhao Youlin glanced around, and was a bit puzzled. “Uncle Zhao, where is Joy? Didn’t he just follow you outside to play? Where is he now?”

When Uncle Zhao heard Zhao Youlin ask about Joy, he smiled and said nothing. Then, he glanced meaningfully to the direction behind Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin frowned and followed his gaze to look back, but after seeing Joy and the person standing next to Joy, she exclaimed in surprise, “What are you doing here?”
