He Jing nodded and said, "Okay."
Anyway, she can wait.
Just when she was desperately short of money, someone handed her a pillow.
If the Zhou family is willing to offer a high price to recruit her, they won't have to worry about any expenses for this semester.
Zhou Xueer looked at He Jing again and again, unable to understand why she agreed, and afraid that she would change her mind. She said nervously, "Then I will contact you as soon as my dad comes back."
He Jing: "Let's add each other on WeChat."
The fake heiress had never added Zhou Xueer on WeChat, and it was even less likely that she would.
Zhou Xueer finally felt a sense of security, as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart. After receiving a WeChat message from He Jing, she returned to her seat.
...
After a dull and boring Saturday, He Jing finally welcomed Sunday. She distributed tickets for the horror-themed escape room to her brothers and received different reactions from each of them.
He Sui's eyes lit up as he held the ticket with obvious delight, exclaiming, "Wow, how did you know I like horror stuff? This looks so fun!"
He Ning frowned slightly, seemingly not very interested in such things, but still put the ticket in her pocket.
He Zhou threw the ticket directly onto the living room table and said, "I'm at home taking care of Xiao Guo."
He Xiaoguo muttered, "No, I don't want to stay at home, I want to go too."
He Yi raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "Isn't Third Brother going? If Third Brother isn't going, I won't go either."
He Chen smiled: "I'll take care of Xiao Guo, and Fifth Brother will stay at home with Third Brother."
He looked like he couldn't be happier, as if he wished he could appear on camera separately from He Yi.
He Zhou glanced at He Yi, then at He Chen, coldly picked up the ticket from the table, and turned to go back to his room.
"There will be classmates tomorrow, and I'll be in a group with them. So please do your best, everyone! The fastest solver will get a reward!" He Jing smiled.
He Sui suddenly remembered and asked, "Will Xiao Yi go?"
"Probably not..." He Jing said with a faint smile, "unless Fourth Brother wants to invite her."
He Sui pursed his lips and said, "Forget it, Xiaoyi is a girl, she's timid, she definitely won't like this, let's play instead."
He Ning glanced at He Sui. He felt that He Sui's heart had already strayed to the Pacific Ocean. Ever since he wronged He Jing once, he had been treating He Jing better than anyone had ever expected. He had never been this enthusiastic when Cheng Yi was their little sister.
Hearing He Sui's words, He Jing's smile deepened: "Alright, then brothers, go to sleep early, we'll set off first thing tomorrow morning."
He Xiaoguo performed a spinning around in place for everyone, as happy as a little bird.
The next morning, as soon as He Jing got up, she saw He Sui sitting in the living room reading the newspaper after washing up, as if he was afraid that she would leave him behind.
He Jing smiled and said, "Good morning."
The others also came out of the room one after another, and began their daily routines in an orderly manner.
He Zhou silently went into the kitchen and started making breakfast. He Jing glanced at He Zhou's face through the glass door. It seemed that he hadn't smiled since celebrating He Ning's birthday.
He Sui pulled her to sit down next to him, and secretly stared at He Zhou, saying to her, "Third Brother has suffered a blow."
He Jing looked surprised and asked, puzzled, "What blow did Third Brother suffer?"
He Sui muttered under his breath, "Of course it's because of you. Third Brother always thought he was very talented at cooking, but after meeting you, he was completely outclassed. I bet he feels like his life is in vain right now and he can't muster any enthusiasm for anything. He'll be fine after a while."
The setback is only temporary; given Igasu's indomitable nature, he will soon recover.
He Jing understood. She lowered her head and pondered for a while, then smiled faintly, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons: "If it's because of this, I'll give him a good talking to when we play the escape room later."
