“Can you keep up with his stamina?” Tang Yanxi asked in surprise.

Why didn’t she think that Liuli went jogging with her brother!

“Basically, when I go up the mountain, he’s the one who chases me. When I go down the mountain, he carries me down!” Liuli was stunned.

Tang Yanxi was stunned for a moment before she couldn’t help but laugh.

Tang Sheng laughed too. His hearty laughter filled the entire car!

“Sister-in-law, don’t mind him. My brother’s physical fitness is not something ordinary people can keep up with, let alone us girls,” Tang Yanxi comforted Liuli.

Liuli could only nod in embarrassment.

The point was not that her physical fitness couldn’t keep up, but that she did not like sports at all!

Was it understandable to be forced to do it because you didn’t like it?

“It’s good to run more. It’s good for your health!” Tang Sheng encouraged her.

“Yes, I won’t have to worry about failing the 800 meters in the future,” Liuli replied with a smile.

This was the only thing that comforted her the most!

“Do you still want to take the 8oo-meter test?” Tang Yanxi asked.

“I have to take the physical education exam!” Liuli nodded.

“Then you’ll definitely be fine. You can even get an A or something.”

“If you follow my brother, there will be meat to eat!” Tang Yanxi joked.

Liuli also smiled.

She thought to herself –

Fortunately, it’s just a run. If he takes me rock climbing or skiing…

The three of them chatted happily as they reached the base of the mountain.

Liuli pushed Grandpa Tang’s wheelchair, and the three of them strolled along, engaged in conversation.

“Sister-in-law, you’ll have to go back to school when it starts, right?” Tang Yanxi inquired.

“Of course. School begins on the tenth day of the lunar calendar.”

“What about you guys?” Liuli responded.

“We’ll be late. I’ll probably arrive in March.”

“Oh, you guys have such a long vacation!”

“I took a month off.”

“Oh, you can do that!”

“It’s easier to get leave once the project is completed,” Tang Yanxi explained.

Liuli smiled and said, “You guys mainly do reports, while we focus on exams!”

“It’s great that you can learn something!”

“Definitely!” Liuli nodded.

Then, she remembered that she had scored 59 points in English and would have to take a makeup exam when school resumed.

Instantly, she felt a sense of despair about her future.

“Liuli, Jingxing will be heading to headquarters after the Spring Festival. You can go with him,” Tang Sheng suggested.

“No, I won’t leave with Brother A/Ioxi. I’ll only return to school after the winter break!”

“It’s only a few days away, isn’t it?” Tang Sheng asked.

“I want to spend more time with Grandpa, Grandma, and my parents!”

“Haha, then my brother is so pitiful. When the time comes, he will have to be alone,” Liuli remarked with a laugh.

“After returning to school, we also…” Liuli stopped mid-sentence.

She almost mentioned that they wouldn’t be living together once they returned to school!

It was like reverting to their initial, unconnected lives!

“What about going back to school?”

“After returning to school, I went to find Brother Jingxing. A few days won’t make a difference!” Liuli insisted.

“Liuli is the best!”

“Grandpa, you’ll surely feel lonely at home when we’re not around.”

“Why don’t you move in with Brother Jingxing?” Liuli suggested.

“I’m an old man, I won’t go wandering around with you.”

“It’s comfortable to stay at home!”

“Jingxing needs to work, so he has to stay there.”

“And you need to go to school.”

“If you have a vacation, you can come back more often to visit Grandpa!” Tang Sheng replied with a smile.

Liuli and Tang Yanxi exchanged glances and said,

“Sure, visit whenever you have free time in the future.”

The three of them continued their leisurely stroll and conversation. Unbeknownst to them, time flew by.

The sky gradually grew darker.

“Grandpa, it’s getting cold. Let’s head back!” Liuli bent down and said to Grandpa Tang.

“Liuli, call Jingxing. We’ll have dinner out tonight.”

“Yanxi, give Yunxi a call!”

“Sure, Grandpa! Where are we going to eat tonight?” Tang Yanxi asked.

“We’re going to have Old Zhang’s dishes!” Tang Sheng replied.

“Okay!” Tang Yanxi responded and called her sister.

“Grandpa, I told Brother Moxi that we’re going to eat at Old Zhang’s. Does he know where it is?”

“He knows,” Tang Sheng assured.

“Alright!” Liuli said and called Mr. Tang.

She couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

It seemed like there was no need to worry about sleeping tonight.

Because Mr. Tang had mentioned that she could rest once she finished translating the two emails at night.

Still no answer!

Liuli glanced at Tang Yanxi awkwardly and then lowered her head to address Grandpa Tang,

“Grandpa, Brother Moxi didn’t answer the call.”

“Call the study directly!” Tang Sheng suggested.

“Huh? Is there a landline in the study?” Liuli blurted out.

Tang Yanxi smiled and provided her with Mr. Tang’s phone number.

Only then did Liuli hurriedly call Mr. Tang.

It was her first time entering Mr. Tang’s study that morning, and she had been occupied with translating emails the entire morning.

She hadn’t even paid attention to the appearance of ATr. Tang’s study or its decorations!

Splitter

The phone rang several times, but nobody answered. Liuli looked up and exclaimed,

“No one is picking up!

Just as she said that, the call was finally answered, and Mr. Tang’s voice came through.

“Liuli…”

“Uncle, how did you know it was me?” Liuli blurted out.

“There’s a caller ID!” Tang Moxi sighed.

“Oh, right… Grandpa asked me to call you. We’re going to have dinner outside tonight.”

“You have to come too.”

At Old… Zhang’s restaurant.”

“You know where it is, right?” Liuli said with an innocent smile.

“Old Zhang Restaurant?”

Liuli covered her cellphone and lowered her head to speak to Grandpa Tang.

“Grandpa, it seems like Brother Moxi doesn’t know where Old Zhang’s restaurant is?”

“Tell him about Old Zhang, and he’ll figure it out.”

“Oh!” Liuli replied and continued talking to Mr. Tang. “Brother Moxi, it’s Old Zhang’s place!”

“I understand. What time? Should I come over now?”

“Something like that. We’re heading there right now too.”

“Alright, be careful. I’ll leave from home.”

“Okay, see you later!” Liuli hung up and informed Grandpa Tang, “Grandpa, I’ve already made plans with Brother Moxi. He’s coming over now.”

“Great!” Tang Sheng said.

The car had already arrived. The driver and bodyguards helped Tang Sheng into the car, followed by Liuli and Tang Yanxi.

“Liuli, what did you call Jingxing earlier?” Tang Sheng asked.

“Brother Moxi!” Liuli looked at Grandpa Tang in confusion.

“That came later. Initially, it wasn’t called that!” Tang Yanxi replied with a smile.

“Then what should I call you?” Liuli gazed up at Tang Yanxi in confusion.

“You can call me Uncle! Haha!” Tang Yanxi couldn’t help but laugh.

This must be the reason why Mr. Tang didn’t want her to call him uncle!

Because it’s easy for people to get accustomed to something and then inadvertently reveal it.

Just like how she always referred to him as Brother Moxi in front of Grandpa Tang.

She didn’t dare to call Mr. Tang Uncle at home.

However, when she heard Mr. Tang’s voice on the phone just now, she almost called him uncle reflexively.

She didn’t notice it herself, but Grandpa Tang and Tang Yanxi did.

“Sometimes, when I joke with Brother Moxi, 1 call him that!” Liuli could only explain like this.

“Is my brother upset about it?” Tang Yanxi smiled.

“He didn’t even let me call him that!” Liuli replied with a pout.

“Haha, I’ve even called him ‘old,’ but my brother is indeed several years older than you.”

“Grandpa said you just turned 18 during the new year!” Tang Yanxi said with a smile.

“I’ll be turning 19 during the new year!” Liuli replied awkwardly.

The next moment, she curiously asked Tang Yanxi,

“Yanxi, how old are you?”

“Sister-in-law, I’m older than you. I’m 22 years old this year. Yunxi is 21!” Tang Yanxi replied honestly.

“All, oh!” Liuli was momentarily taken aback.

Then she recollected what Mr. Tang had mentioned earlier…

“My sisters are still quite young.”

This comparison made her feel even more deceived.

Mr. Tang, do you think I appear older in comparison to your two sisters?

Or are you simply lying to pursue marriage with me?

Ultimately, Liuli chose the latter explanation.

Mr. Tang has been secretly infatuated with me for a long time!

“Sister-in-law, are you surprised?” Tang Yanxi smiled. “Do I appear older than my actual age?”

“No, no. I thought both you and Yunxi were younger than me!”

“How is that possible? You’re only 18 years old. Don’t tell me you think Yunxi and I are 15 or 16!” Tang Yanxi asked with a hint of amusement.

“Because your brother mentioned that you were still young!”

“Alright, in my brother’s eyes, we might as well be in our seventies or eighties, but he still thinks we’re young!”

So, Sister-in-law, you’ll definitely be happy marrying my brother.”

“My brother is great at taking care of people. You’re much younger than him. He’ll definitely spoil you!” Tang Yanxi replied.

Liuli almost let slip…

He’s actually trampling on me and making my life miserable!

Liuli could only put on a foolish smile.

Upon reaching the dining area, Liuli realized that…

Only then did Liuli understand why Mr. Tang hadn’t reacted when she mentioned the Zhang family’s restaurant.

It turned out that the eatery owned by Old Zhang wasn’t called the Zhang family’s restaurant, but rather… Chef Zhang’s.

It was such an elegant name for a dining establishment, yet she had mistakenly portrayed it as a fast food joint.

Later, she witnessed Old Zhang entering the private room to greet Grandpa Tang.

It was then that Liuli realized.

Master Zhang and Grandpa Tang were comrades, although they belonged to different ranks.

No wonder Grandpa Tang insisted on dining here!

“My granddaughter-in-law, Liuli.”

“Liuli, call him Grandpa Zhang! He’s my fellow comrade and your Grandpa’s as well!” Tang Sheng introduced.

“Hello, Grandpa Zhang!” Liuli respectfully bowed.

“Alright, alright. We previously met at the wedding.”

“What a beautiful and well-behaved granddaughter-in-law.”

“Old Tang, you’re truly fortunate!” Lord Zhang said with a smile.

“Of course. How can the granddaughter of the Yu family’s residence not be well-behaved?”

“You’re intelligent and insightful. You got engaged at an early stage.”

“I still have two grandsons who are single!”

“Haha, indeed!” Grandpa Tang happily nodded. “You must have a drink with me tonight!”

“Not today. I don’t have any good wine. I’ll have someone send it over in two days.”

“Let’s enjoy a good drink!”

“If you insist, it’s a deal!”

“Alright!”

After catching up with Grandpa Tang, Grandpa Zhang went out to offer assistance.

Grandpa Tang and Liuli continued reminiscing about their past.

Liuli burst into laughter upon hearing their stories.

It was truly amusing. Despite enduring hardships during their time in the army, they still managed to find moments of laughter!

Tang Moxi arrived first. Tang Yunxi was nearby and even called her brother, but she couldn’t locate the place.

Tang Moxi went out to escort her.

The two of them entered the private room.

“Why has this place changed so much? 1 couldn’t even recognize it. 1 circled around twice, but 1 couldn’t find it,” Tang Yunxi said as she stepped into the private room.

“How dare you!” Tang Sheng glared at her.

“Grandpa, 1 was wrong. I’ll come back often in the future!” Tang Yunxi said ingratiatingly.

She had indeed not been back for more than two years.

After she had a conflict with Tang Yanxi, she ran away from home.

Although her brother found her later, she never came back.

Because of this, Grandpa was very angry. He even said that he would pretend that he didn’t have a granddaughter like her. In the future, when he died, she wouldn’t have to come back to send him off.

When everyone was here, they started to order.

Tang Sheng asked Liuli to order her favorite dishes.

“Grandpa, 1 haven’t eaten Grandpa Zhang’s dishes before. I’m not familiar with them.

“Can you help me order?” Liuli pushed the menu back to Grandpa Tang and said.

“Alright, Grandpa will order a few of Grandpa Zhang’s best dishes for you!”

“Your Grandpa Zhang doesn’t cook easily these days!”

“If I hadn’t come, he would still be enjoying himself with his legs crossed!” After saying that, Tang Sheng turned around and instructed the dishes without even looking at the menu.

It was all thanks to Grandpa Zhang’s son who came to take charge. Otherwise, with Tang Sheng’s way of ordering, no one would know what he was ordering.

Because they didn’t say their full names, only the main ingredients.

After Tang Sheng ordered, he asked his grandchildren to order more.

After ordering, they waited for the dishes to be served.

“Liuli, you have to eat more later. Grandpa Zhang’s dishes are very good.”

“Alright, this will be my supper,” Liuli replied with a smile.

“Even if you eat too much, that won’t do.”

“If you like it, ask Jingxing to bring you here often in the future.”

“Sure!” Liuli said, then turned to look at Mr. Tang.

She couldn’t help but criticize him in her heart.

Did Mr. Tang have the free time?

“Just let me know when you want to come!” Tang Moxi replied calmly.

“Haha, sure!” Liuli was momentarily stunned before replying.

She thought, Mr. Tang, you must know how to read minds, right?

Otherwise, how could you tell what 1 was thinking!

“How was your hiking trip this afternoon?” Tang Moxi asked again.

“I had a great time. Grandpa, Yanxi, and 1 walked around the mountain. The air was really refreshing!”

“Brother Moxi, let’s not run on the road next time. We’ll just jog at the base of the mountain!”

“Are you going to suggest we run around the house next time?”

No, I just feel that the air at the base of the mountain is better!” Liuli muttered in embarrassment.

“Alright, I’ll join you tomorrow morning. Just don’t back out then!”

Of course not!” Liuli pouted.

She thought to herself that running on flat ground was much easier than running uphill!

However, the next morning, she regretted it when she went for a run with Mr. Tang!

Mr. Tang seemed to never tire of challenging her!

The dishes were served one after another.

Liuli’s mood improved as soon as she had something to eat.

She momentarily forgot about the task of translating emails at night.

In that moment, her focus was solely on enjoying her meal.

Liuli was biting into a tea-infused prawn, savoring its delightful fragrance.

Just then, Tang Moxi placed some peeled prawn meat onto her plate.

Liuli turned to face him.

“In the future, don’t eat the shell along with it,” Tang Moxi casually remarked.

“Um… it’s more nutritious with the shell!” Liuli mumbled, unwilling to admit that she knew more about eating than cooking.

Tang Moxi glanced at Liuli.

Mr. Tang, could you please not look at me with such evident disdain?

Do you realize it hurts my self-esteem?

However, it seemed that her message wasn’t conveyed through her eyes alone.

She only heard Mr. Tang ask,

“Would you like more?”

“What do you mean?” Liuli asked, puzzled.

“More shrimp!” Tang Moxi clarified.

“Yes!… Uh, no, I can do it myself! Thank you!” Liuli snapped back to reality and swiftly responded.

If it were just the two of them, she wouldn’t mind having Mr. Tang peel the prawns for her.

But with everyone from the Tang family present, it wouldn’t be appropriate.

She didn’t want Grandpa Tang and Tang Yanxi to think that she was a handicapped person who couldn’t take care of herself. Even though she resisted, Tang Moxi still assisted Liuli in peeling a few more.

“Grandpa, please have some too!” Liuli insisted when she noticed that Grandpa Tang had stopped eating.

“I’m satisfied. You eat more!” Grandpa Tang Sheng replied with a smile.

“Grandpa, why are you full after eating so little?” Liuli asked, surprised.

“Grandpa, you shouldn’t consume such high-salt and oily food,” Tang Moxi stated frankly.

“Grandpa, you should have asked Grandpa Zhang to cook something lighter for us earlier, so you could eat more!”

“It’s fine. I’m content now. Seeing you both enjoy your meal makes Grandpa very happy,” Tang Sheng shook his head.

“In that case, 1’11 prepare red braised pork for you tomorrow as compensation,” Liuli offered.

It was the only dish she knew, coincidentally Grandpa Tang’s favorite.

Thus, she would say this every time.

“Alright!” Tang Sheng nodded.

After dinner, the young man went to explore Chef Zhang’s buildings and decorations, while Tang Sheng and his comrade conversed in the private room.

There might not be another opportunity.

Tang Sheng was well aware of his own health. Every day was crucial now!

It was nearly ten o’clock when the family returned to the Tang residence.

Liuli and Tang Moxi went back to their own house.

The first thing Tang Moxi did was rush upstairs to take a shower, buying more time to translate the remaining email before going to sleep.

When Liuli emerged from the shower in her casual clothes, Tang A/Ioxi was already working late in the study.

Liuli entered the study and took the notebook.

“Liuli, I’ve gone through the manuscript you translated. There are numerous translation mistakes and vocabulary issues.”

“Revise it first and send me a new copy!” Tang A/loxi looked up and instructed.

“Huh? Oh!” Liuli replied slowly.

An uneasy feeling started to creep in.

She turned on the laptop, accessed her email, downloaded the attachment, and opened it…

Liuli noticed that the document was heavily marked in red, with the reasons for the errors in parentheses.

She almost fainted.

It was completely covered in red!

Was this some kind of joke?!

Red marks everywhere!

Liuli could only accept her fate and make changes one by one.

She realized just how disastrous this translation was.

Let’s not even discuss whether the translation was good or if she had considered literary proficiency and refinement.

The sentence flow itself was problematic.

Even after reading it once, she felt deceived, let alone someone as nitpicky as Mr. Tang.

Liuli painstakingly went through it, changing word byword, not even letting go of a single punctuation mark.

They spent over an hour carefully working on it and then sent it to A4r. Tang once again.

Liuli began translating the next email.

However, before she could make any progress, she heard Mr. Tang calling her again.

Liuli turned to Mr. Tang with a sense of dread.

In her mind, she couldn’t help muttering,

Is this man planning to keep me up all night?!

Tang Moxi intended to address the numerous unstandardized translations that still needed to be rectified.

But when he met Liuli’s innocent gaze, he found himself unable to criticize her.

All he could do was cough and say,

“Liuli, just focus on translating that email for now!”

“Really? Thank you, kind sir. No, thank you, Brother Moxi. Thank you, Hubby!” Liuli exclaimed with excitement.

She could hardly believe her luck!

Mr. Tang was truly kind-hearted and handsome!

“After you finish that, go and rest. You can also make the necessary changes to the previous one,” Tang Moxi concluded.

Liuli was momentarily taken aback before responding slowly,

“Oh, there’s still a mistake? Then 1’11 continue to make the changes.”

After saying that, Liuli lowered her head and accessed her email. She received the new email and downloaded the attachment.

This time, it wasn’t as heavily marked in red as the previous one.

It was mostly concentrated in one section, like a patch of red.

But every instance of red was accompanied by brackets indicating the specific issue.

For instance, the first remark clarified that “averaged” referred to individual losses, not overall averages.

Liuli made the necessary modifications to each sentence based on the bracketed hints. She then reread them, adjusting the flow of certain individual sentences.

She realized that the entire translation had indeed improved significantly and was much smoother than before.

Liuli sent the revised translation to Mr. Tang and couldn’t resist adding one more sentence to the email…

Hubby, you’re the best!

After sending the email, Liuli hugged her laptop and gazed intently at Tang Moxi, awaiting a reaction.

She thought that if it didn’t work, she would immediately notice.

However, after staring at Mr. Tang for a while, she didn’t see any change in his expression.

Could it be that he hadn’t received her email yet?!

So, Liuli softly reminded him,

“Brother Moxi, I’ve edited it and sent it to you!”

“Okay!” Tang Moxi responded, looking up at her.

Liuli met his gaze and couldn’t react for a moment.

What did Mr. Tang’s expression mean?

It only heightened her anxiety. “Liuli…”

“Yes!
