He Sui grumbled, dissatisfied: "Who are you insulting?"
He Zhou glanced at him sideways, his meaning clear: who else could he possibly be cursing?
He Ning passed by the two of them, paused for a moment, looked at He Zhou, but didn't say anything. He put one hand in his pocket and walked away.
The Zhu family lived in a residential area not far from the food stall. The building was brand new. The Zhu family lived on the ninth floor and had to take the elevator up. Qian Lizhen suddenly felt that He Jing was unsophisticated and couldn't help but show off, saying, "We bought this apartment as soon as it opened. Look how convenient it is to get in and out. No need to climb stairs. Jingjing, did the Cheng family's apartment you lived in before have an elevator?"
Qian Lizhen didn't know the specifics of the He family's situation, only that the He family's daughter had been switched at birth. The He family's parents didn't reveal much, only casually mentioning that the family that had been switched at birth was surnamed Cheng.
He Jing said, "No."
Qian Lizhen immediately smiled and enthusiastically took He Jing's hand: "Hey, then you can come often in the future. You don't have to climb stairs to come to your aunt's house. There is a balcony with a good view and a large area."
He Jing knew exactly what she was thinking, and without even lifting her eyelids, she replied indifferently, "If Auntie is happy to see me in the future, I will definitely come often."
"Of course I'd like to. Your aunt would love for you to come every day."
"oh."
After they finished speaking, the two had already reached the ninth floor.
There are only three households on the ninth floor, surrounding the elevator. The Zhu family's house is the one on the left after exiting the elevator. Qian Lizhen took out her key, opened the door, and went inside. He Jing, who was behind her, suddenly smelled a sour odor inside. Looking around, she saw a plate of leftover food on the table that had gone bad.
Not only that, the entire Zhu family home was in a terrible mess, with things scattered everywhere on the ground, making it impossible to find a place to step.
He Jing: "..."
Qian Lizhen seemed completely unaware, and walked with practiced ease to a bedroom, knocked on the door, and called out, "Qianqian."
There was no response from inside, and when I turned the doorknob, it was locked from the inside.
Qian Lizhen was immediately embarrassed. She put down her hand, turned around, and said, "Why don't you sleep in my room?"
He Jing said, "No need."
She originally didn't want to sleep in the same bed with anyone.
Her eyes swept across the room, landing on the sofa. "I'll sleep there."
Qian Lizhen was delighted and didn't feel embarrassed at all. She quickly put away the blankets, toys, and remote controls on the sofa and said, "It just so happens that Qianqian likes to snore, so I'll have to trouble you."
Fortunately, Qian Lizhen still had some conscience. She remembered to throw away the leftover food on the table and clean up the things on the floor, making the whole living room much better.
He Ning and He Sui followed closely behind. When they heard that Zhu Qian had locked the door, their expressions turned grim. They were trying to guard against Cheng Yi, but instead managed to keep He Jing away.
Seeing their stiff expressions, He Jing smiled gently and comforted them, "It's alright, it's just one night."
He Zhou's eyes sneered: "Who do you think cares about you? You brought this on yourself."
He Ning sighed, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
He Sui felt extremely aggrieved: "Damn it, He Jing, you'd better not come here again."
He Yi and He Chen remained silent, clearly feeling bad as well.
He Jing said helplessly, "Yes, I brought it on myself. I'm sleepy."
After saying that, she lay down on the sofa, covered herself with the blanket, and the He brothers looked at each other and had no choice but to go to sleep.
...
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.
He Jing was awakened by a scream. When she opened her eyes, she saw a disheveled girl in pajamas standing by the coffee table with her eyes wide open.
She kept shouting at the top of her lungs, "Mom, Mom..."
Qian Lizhen flung open the door and asked anxiously, "Qianqian, what's wrong?"
Zhu Qian: "A thief broke into our house!"
