Chapter 843: Chapter 845: Third Wheel

Besides, searching for things can’t be done in a high-profile manner, making the whole world aware is not a good idea. Let’s just go with the flow, perhaps one day the clue will just come to us.

Xiao Yifei had read quite a few treasure hunt novels, and in the books, characters usually found treasures due to various coincidences, so he shouldn’t rush. He should first handle the tasks in front of him, he thought.

Xiao Yifei hadn’t been home for several days, and this weekend he decided to go back to see how the two girls at home were doing.

When he got home, the two of them were watching TV, though it wasn’t exactly watching since the TV was on, playing a monologue, while they each played with a phone, occasionally glancing at the TV.

Seeing Xiao Yifei back, they both exclaimed, "Wow, you finally came back! We thought you were going to stay long-term at the hospital!"

"This is my home after all, how could I not come back? The hospital matters have come to a temporary pause, and I need a few days off to rest," Xiao Yifei said.

"Who knows how many days you can rest? You might get called back by a phone call anytime. I always thought my job in advertising was tough, but having a doctor friend made me realize how hard doctors work. One call and you have to be at the hospital," Tang Rong said sympathetically.

"Don’t jinx it, it’s hard enough for me to get some time off. Just pray I can get a good night’s sleep. You really can’t understand the struggles of being a doctor."

"Exactly, Brother Xiao, I haven’t seen you for a week. I missed you so much, but I’m afraid to call you in case I disturb you," Shi Miaomiao, who was like a sibling to Xiao Yifei, said. She would just say whatever she wanted, unlike Tang Rong, who hesitated for a long time before making a call.

"If you missed me, you could’ve come to the hospital to see me! Sister Rong, you could make me some braised pork to bring over. I haven’t eaten your cooking for a week, and I’m craving it. Is there any leftover food? Let me taste the flavor of home."

As long as there were others present, Xiao Yifei could talk to Tang Rong without feeling awkward or nervous, but when they were alone, he would get so nervous he wouldn’t know what to say.

"We had noodle soup tonight, there’s still some left. You can heat it if you want to eat. Did you have dinner? Otherwise, you could order takeout, the newly opened restaurant downstairs has delicious stir-fried dishes," Tang Rong asked, concerned.

"No problem, I’ve had dinner. I just really miss home-cooked meals, especially your braised pork. The taste is superb," Xiao Yifei joked, repeatedly mentioning the braised pork in hopes of Tang Rong making it for him the next day but felt shy to ask directly.

Tang Rong understood what Xiao Yifei meant and said, "If you want to eat braised pork, just say it. No need to beat around the bush. Tomorrow, how about you buy the groceries, and we’ll make a few more dishes to celebrate your successful end of work this time, since I’m free tomorrow."

Seeing Tang Rong readily agree, Xiao Yifei couldn’t hold back his smile. He felt that finding such a great landlord like Tang Rong in this city was definitely one of the happiest things in his life.

He suddenly said, "I really hope these days could last forever, the three of us living together, I’ll earn money to support the family, Sister Rong cooks, and Miaomiao, you don’t seem to have much to do, so how about you do the laundry. Just thinking about living like this makes me happy."

"You think really beautifully, but I won’t want to do the laundry, and wasn’t laundry always your job before? Ever since you got rich, you haven’t done laundry at all. Truly, people change when they have money," Shi Miaomiao didn’t indulge Xiao Yifei’s fantasy.

"Actually, such days are quite blissful. If Xiao Yifei can earn and support us, I wouldn’t have to work myself to exhaustion every day. Xiao Yifei is so capable now, I’m sure he earns enough to support both of us. Miaomiao, just imagine how wonderful such a life would be," Tang Rong also indulged in the fantasy.

"If Brother Xiao supports us, wouldn’t that be considered keeping us? So what would our relationship with him be? Sister Rong, maybe it’s enough if Brother Xiao just keeps you, I won’t be a third wheel," Shi Miaomiao teased.

Tang Rong blushed hearing the word "keeping" and retorted, "How could it be keeping? We’re just forming a common interest group for various reasons. I provide you guys with a house, and in return, you should do something for me."

In Tang Rong’s imagination earlier, she imagined herself as Xiao Yifei’s wife, with Shi Miaomiao as their child, and she naturally thought of this relationship. She didn’t find it strange because she probably thought their current relationship was just like that.

Although Shi Miaomiao had worked for a year, because of her baby face, many people on the street still thought she was a middle school student. While this was a good thing for a woman, it also meant losing many opportunities in the workplace. Many superiors who saw her would think she was just an intern college student.

So she wasn’t given any important work assignments. Sometimes, when working on projects with superiors, the partners didn’t trust her, seeing her as a little girl and not taking her seriously. But actually, Shi Miaomiao’s work abilities were strong.

But she currently had no solution. She tried wearing more mature makeup, but it didn’t suit her and instead made her look older.

Sister Rong was different. Her aura showed she was a supervisor working in a major company. Already pretty, when wearing formal business attire, her mature allure was irresistible even to Shi Miaomiao.

"Sister Rong, if I were a man, I’d definitely want you as my girlfriend," Shi Miaomiao said, mesmerized, while Tang Rong was applying a face mask.

"Am I too beautiful, blinded by my beauty?" Tang Rong asked smugly.

"Yes, Sister Rong, every time I see you in formal wear, you’re irresistibly alluring," Shi Miaomiao continued.

"Why don’t you be my little girlfriend then? You’re so cute, you’d be quite suitable," Tang Rong joked.

"I think that’s a great idea. We both don’t have boyfriends right now, having a girlfriend to pamper me sounds nice," Shi Miaomiao clapped in agreement.

"By the way, Sister Rong, seriously, do you really plan to just let things drag on with Brother Xiao? You both like each other but never break the ice. I get anxious just watching. Can’t one of you be a little proactive?"

"Although I usually come across as carefree and strong, I actually get shy in these matters. Normally, those who like me are quite direct and clear, so someone like Xiao Yifei is a first for me too. I really don’t know what to do. Just thinking about confessing to him makes me nervous," Tang Rong admitted with a shy appearance whenever she mentioned Xiao Yifei.
