Chen Yuanyuan leaned against Xiao Li's chest, tears streaming down her face, and breathed heavily for a while before calming down a bit.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Last month, my dad tested me, saying the house was a mess and he needed a woman to manage it. I had a huge fight with him, and I thought he'd given up on the idea. But I never expected..."
Su Ruyi also lowered her head and wept silently.
"Ruyi, don't worry!" Chen Yuanyuan suddenly wiped away her tears. "I guarantee he won't be able to marry you!"
Xiao Li nodded and said, "How about we do this..."
The three whispered to each other for a while, and their expressions gradually brightened.
Xiao Li exclaimed in surprise, "I always thought Ruyi was the older sister, I didn't expect her to be the younger sister!"
Chen Yuanyuan burst into laughter through her tears: "So I'm the eldest! Then I'm the eldest sister, Xiaoli is the second sister, and Ruyi is the youngest sister. Let's become sworn sisters tonight! Come on, let's go to the market!"
Xiao Li clapped her hands and laughed, "Tonight, I'm going to cook some of my signature dishes for you!"
That evening, Xiao Li indeed prepared a large and sumptuous feast, consisting of eight dishes and a soup.
Sitting at Chen Yuanyuan's dining table, the three of them raised their glasses of red wine.
The red wine was taken by Chen Yuanyuan from Chen Weixing's wine cabinet.
Chen Weixing does not eat at home.
Since his wife died, he has hired six caregivers for the family, but six of them have left.
The little devil Chen Yaozong exhausted all the nannies, who ended up carrying their luggage and running away overnight. In the end, Chen Weixing had no choice but to send him to his own sister Chen Weiyue's house.
As Chen Yuanyuan recounted Chen Yaozong's various misdeeds, Su Ruyi thought for a moment and then told him about how Su Manao had hit Chen Yaozong and how Chen Weixing had extorted two thousand yuan from the family.
Xiao Li burst out laughing and spat out a mouthful of rice: "Chen Yaozong actually ate dog poop?! Hahahaha!"
Chen Yuanyuan's face flushed again: "I'm sorry, Ruyi. My dad is a bastard. All men are bastards, let's not stoop to their level, okay? I... I have two thousand yuan, how about I give it to you?"
Su Ruyi shook her head and refused: "This is a matter between my dad and your dad, it's best if we don't get involved."
Chen Yuanyuan nodded: "Ruyi, if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know."
As she spoke, she gave Su Ruyi her home phone number.
As the three ate, Xiao Li would occasionally peek out the window.
Finally, she called out urgently, "You're back!"
The three of them quickly lit the candles they had prepared, extinguished the lamps, and knelt down together facing the window.
Chen Weixing returned home drunk, only to be met with this horrifying sight—the house was dark, and three people were kneeling by the window!
He pulled on the light cord, but he pulled too hard and the cord snapped.
In the darkness, Chen Yuanyuan said softly, "Dad, why are you back so early today? Since you're back, why don't you be a witness for the three of us sisters?"
“What…witness?” Chen Weixing heard his own voice trembling.
"My two best friends and I are becoming sworn sisters tonight! We're going to do our vows to heaven and earth, and Dad, you can be our witness!" Chen Yuanyuan said, straightening up and solemnly declaring, "I am Chen Yuanyuan!"
Xiao Li chimed in: "I am Wu Lili!"
Su Ruyi chimed in, "I am Su Ruyi!"
Then the three of them said in unison, "Today we become sworn brothers! We don't ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we ask to die on the same day, month, and year!"
Chen Yuanyuan continued, "I'm the eldest sister!"
Xiao Li said, "I'm the second sister!"
Su Ruyi said, "I am the younger sister!"
Then, in unison, they exclaimed, "Sisters sworn in marriage, our bond stronger than gold!"
Chen Weixing stood behind the group, listening with a grim expression.
As soon as Su Ruyi uttered the words "I, Su Ruyi," he felt like he was about to have a heart attack.
He came home early today on purpose so he could tell his daughter that he was going to remarry.
Although he was domineering outside, he doted on his son and daughter.
Su Ruyi actually became sworn sisters with her own daughter?
This...this is too much of a coincidence!
How exactly did his mother meet these two people?
Something's fishy!
Something's definitely fishy!
He groped his way to a stool in the dark, stood on it, and with a flashlight in his mouth, finally managed to connect the light cord.
With a snap, the lights in the room were back on.
Chen Weixing spotted Su Ruyi standing by the window at a glance.
With a small, smiling face, she greeted him, "Uncle Chen! We meet again!"
Chen Yuanyuan feigned suspicion: "Ruyi, have you met my father?"
"Yes. My younger sister and your brother had a fight a few days ago, and your dad came to my house because of it," Su Ruyi said briefly.
"Huh? He didn't cause you any trouble, did he?" Chen Yuanyuan pretended to be very nervous.
“No. Uncle just reasoned with them and appealed to their emotions, telling them not to fight anymore.” Su Ruyi looked directly into Chen Weixing’s eyes. “Both children accepted Uncle’s advice and said they wouldn’t fight anymore.”
Chen Weixing gasped.
This incredibly beautiful girl is definitely not some naive, unsophisticated little girl!
She was clearly threatening me!
Seeing his daughter's innocent eyes looking at him, Chen Weixing forced an awkward smile: "Okay, okay. Yuanyuan, you can continue playing with your friends, Daddy will..."
"What do you mean, 'keep playing'? Dad, we're serious!" Chen Yuanyuan stomped her foot in dissatisfaction.
"Okay, okay!" Chen Weixing raised his hands in surrender. "You two can continue your sworn brotherhood, but don't tell anyone outside. We're not allowed to do these feudal things now! Dad's going back to his room first."
