"Hey! Yun Mei Nu is here! When did you arrive? Why didn’t you notify me to come pick you up?" Shi Tian chuckled and replied, "This is all Ye Ge's fault. I had plans with my classmates, but halfway there, he called me, saying he heard I graduated and insisted on treating me to fish! I ended up missing my appointment!"
"And what happened? I bought a ticket and flew over, only to find out he just wanted to show off that he caught a Stonefish weighing less than three pounds! After a whole day of travel, by the time I got here, all I got was a fish head! You need to talk to Ye Ge about this; it’s outrageous!"
Unconsciously tucking the knife away into the cabinet, Shi Tian turned to focus on Yun Wan'er, hoping to divert her attention from the topic. If Yun Wan'er kept insisting on this matter, it would surely lead to trouble for him!
"Hey, Yun Mei Nu, have you seen this villa? This is Shi Ye's way of expressing his apology; it's my graduation gift!"
Yun Wan'er immediately came at him with accusations, clearly having been through quite a bit on the way. As long as he could keep her distracted, handling the rest would be much easier.
Upon hearing about the villa, Yun Wan'er smacked him on the head: "Is this villa a gift from your Ye Ge? Just because it has your name on it means it's for you? It’s actually for me and Lao Shi. It has nothing to do with you!"
"After your grandfather passed away, it was me and Lao Shi who raised your Ye Ge, putting him through college! This is your Ye Ge showing respect to us! The reason it’s in your name is because of inheritance tax; putting the house in your name now will save a lot of taxes later! Understand?"
With that slap, Shi Tian was left a bit dazed. So according to Yun Wan'er, this villa had nothing to do with him? This seemed a bit deep!
Hadn't he taken the blame for Ye Ge before? Why couldn’t it be that Ye Ge was compensating him for his guilt by giving him this villa? After being confused for a moment, Shi Tian argued back.
The value of this villa was high, but whether it belonged to Shi Tian or Yun Wan'er, they really didn’t care. Yun Wan'er just wanted to give Shi Tian a little wake-up call; this kid had gotten a bit too wild after graduation and needed some discipline!
"You took the blame for him? He must have taken quite a few for you too! You two can settle your own scores! After dinner, hurry up and find yourself a place to stay; otherwise, you'll end up sleeping on the street tonight!"
After threatening Shi Tian, Yun Wan'er turned and went upstairs to continue tidying up her space.
Whether or not Shi Tian would end up sleeping on the street was unknown to her; if she didn’t hurry up and clean the second floor, she definitely wouldn’t sleep soundly tonight!
Outside in the yard, as soon as that RV honked, not long after, Shi Chui came in from the yard and peeked into the kitchen. He saw Shi Tian pulling out a three or four-pound Carp from the fishing bucket.
"You caught this? When did you catch such a big one?" Rubbing his hands together, Shi Chui felt proud.
Earlier he had gone down to the underground garage and rummaged through Shi Tian’s Fishing Gear; he was quite satisfied with what he found.
That Golden Silk Nanmu Rod Case finally came into his hands, filled with an entire set of Rods now resting in his RV. He planned to carve his name into that box later; that set of Rods would be his.
"This one is small; I just caught a Big Carp weighing over thirty pounds! But I couldn’t bring it back alive; I left it for my friend!" Turning around and patting Shi Chui on the shoulder, Shi Tian smiled slightly. "Help me get past this hurdle with Old Yun, and I'll take you fishing. I guarantee you'll catch plenty!"
They had managed to invite someone over, but getting past this hurdle wouldn’t be easy. He guessed that Yun Wan'er was probably plotting how to deal with him right now!
Just one sentence had cost him a villa; if he didn’t perform well today, who knows—maybe Yun Wan'er would really kick him out!
Having received Shi Tian's promise, Shi Chui chuckled and leaned closer to whisper in his ear: "No problem! I've already arranged everything. Just perform well today. I've ordered an ancient zither that should arrive this afternoon. When it does, just say it's your gift for her; that should get you through this!"
Hearing this made Shi Tian give a thumbs-up to Shi Chui. When dealing with Yun Wan'er, you really needed some cleverness!
"Lao Shi is reliable! You’ve raised me well; in that cabinet next to the safe in the study on the third floor, I've prepared a set of Rods specifically customized for you."
"Go take a look yourself, but make sure Old Yun doesn't find out! Otherwise, if I prepared a gift for you but not for her, your son's life will be difficult!"
Shi Chui waved him off as Shi Tian smiled slightly and turned to grab a small jar of tea leaves, running upstairs. This was something a few old gentlemen had left him before they departed. He wasn't particularly interested in tea, but he knew it was good stuff, so he had casually stored it in the kitchen.
"Lady Yun, a few old gentlemen from the capital visited before and saw that I had some high-quality tea leaves. I shamelessly asked them for a jar, just for you. Quickly put it away so Lao Shi doesn't see it. You all came so suddenly that I didn't prepare any gifts for you. If he sees it, he'll get jealous!"
He stuffed the tea leaves into Yun Wan'er's hands and hurried downstairs to get busy with lunch. It was easy to bring them over, but keeping them around would be another challenge!
Watching Shi Tianxia's retreating figure, Yun Wan'er couldn't help but smile. Although it was just a packet of tea leaves, the boy was thoughtful!
Looking at the tea leaves in her hand, she opened the jar and took a whiff. It was indeed good quality; Shi Ye had sent her two jars before that had the same aroma—nothing like what was available on the market!
She placed the tea leaves in the drawer of the tea room and suddenly felt inspired. She went downstairs to retrieve a Zisha Tea Set from the car, set it up in the tea room, washed the teaware, and decided to brew a pot first!
