Chapter 130: Chapter 130 Such a top quality (1)_1

Her nominal grandmother... She couldn’t understand why the old woman was going along with their foolishness. Had she grown tired of her peaceful life and was now seeking some excitement at her advanced age? At this thought, Shangguan You decided to give Li Wanying and her daughter a late-night ’scare call,’ perhaps adding a hint of scandal, just to wake them up and stop them from bothering her needlessly. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Sister, in this cold weather, even if Grandma and Aunt Li want to go out, you should try to dissuade them. How could you join in their foolishness? Besides, Grandma is elderly and should be resting at home. You should have persuaded her more." Shangguan You spoke indifferently, watching Shangguan Rou’s expression darken.

"However, morning exercise is actually beneficial for people of Grandma’s age. Since I’m not in Beijing, whatever Grandma wants to do, please advise her with her health in mind. We came back late last night and also changed locations, which made it hard to sleep, so I woke up a bit late today. I believe Grandpa and Eldest Uncle will understand and forgive me. And I will be careful in the future; I definitely won’t make Grandpa and Eldest Uncle wait for me again. Thank you for reminding me today, sister." Shangguan You said this lightly, watching Shangguan Rou’s face, intending to infuriate her.

"Girl, morning exercise is good for someone of Grandma’s age; it’s beneficial for her health. You can rest assured that Rourou will accompany Grandma in the future. As for you, stay here and accompany Grandpa and my Dad. Get up quickly, you lazy pig, let’s go join Grandpa for morning exercises." Shangguan Qing said lightly, giving Shangguan Rou a glance. He gently stroked Shangguan You’s hair and started to make the bed for her.

The faint warmth of her body and a light scent of lotus still lingered under the covers. Under Shangguan Rou’s exasperated gaze, Shangguan Qing skillfully made the bed, something he had often done before. He was quite adept at it now.

"Mmm, I’ll be ready in a moment." Shangguan You jumped out of bed, grabbed a set of sportswear, and rushed into the bathroom. She greatly enjoyed Shangguan Qing’s affectionate and considerate actions. Someone to fold the blankets, someone to tidy up the bed—of course, she would enjoy it. She enjoyed it all the more, especially under Shangguan Rou’s fiery gaze.

In just a moment, she emerged dressed in beige sportswear and sneakers, her hair tied back in a ponytail, looking completely refreshed.

"Sister, why are you still here? You should be accompanying Grandma. She usually dotes on you the most, so you can’t let her down. Brother Qing, let’s go. Grandpa is waiting for us."

Shangguan You glanced at Shangguan Rou, treating her as if she were thin air. She took Shangguan Qing’s hand and walked out of the room, closing the door with a BANG. Shangguan Rou, her face white with anger, stared hatefully at their departing figures.

Shangguan Qing had never treated her like a sister, nor had he ever been so considerate towards her. Naturally, she felt resentful. She hated Shangguan You for stealing everything that was supposed to be hers. She despised her and wished her dead. Yet she still had to smile in her presence, to please her, and to make others believe their sisterly relationship was harmonious and loving.

"Sister, wait for me! I’ll join you for morning exercise. It’s been a while since we did something together, let’s do this together." Shangguan Rou put on a smile, naturally taking Shangguan You’s arm, wanting to join her affectionately.

Shangguan Qing swiftly pulled Shangguan You into his embrace, causing Shangguan Rou’s outstretched hand to meet only air. He ignored Shangguan Rou’s unsightly expression and said calmly, "No need, little sister Rou. You just came from over there; wouldn’t going for morning exercise again be pointless? Besides, Grandpa and Dad are waiting for us. You should stay and accompany Grandma. Otherwise, she’ll be upset if she’s alone." Then, the two of them walked down the stairs. Seeing Shangguan Zhi and his son waiting in the living room, they quickly joined them.

"Grandma, Aunt, Aunt Li, I’ll accompany Grandpa for his morning exercise," Shangguan You said, nodding at the women before hurrying after the men. Her good mood was spoiled early in the morning by the sight of Li Wanying and Shangguan Rou.

"Little You, let Rourou join you," Li Wanying blurted out anxiously. No matter what, she always liked to involve her daughter and have her accompany them.

"She just came from over there; what morning exercise? With that time, she might as well help Ruoling prepare breakfast and wait for our return," Shangguan Zhi said sternly, his cold gaze making Li Wanying’s intended words catch in her throat, her face reddening slightly.

Shangguan Rou stood there with an aggrieved expression, shifting her feet as if wanting to follow. But seeing Shangguan Zhi’s stern face, her steps halted. Tears welled in her eyes as she looked pitifully at Li Wanying and Madame Shangguan, looking utterly forlorn.

"Alright, Rourou never joined the old man for his morning exercise in the past, so there’s no need for her to follow today. They have to go to work soon. Go on, don’t be late. Rourou, come here, keep Grandma company and chat," Madame Shangguan sighed deeply before softly coaxing.

She wouldn’t have run over here before dawn if it weren’t for them. Not only did she arrive so early, but she had also just been harshly glared at by the old man. It seemed he was blaming her for meddling.

Originally, she hadn’t objected to the old man living here; it was all the same to her. Both of her sons lived nearby in the same courtyard, so it wasn’t far. She truly didn’t understand why Li Wanying insisted on coming over, and even dragged her along.

"Grandma, I just want to spend more time with my sister. I just want Brother Qing to treat me a bit better," Shangguan Rou said tearfully, burying herself in Li Wanying’s embrace.

Liu Ruoling’s lips curled upwards as she turned and walked into the kitchen. When little You was around, the relationship between the two families wasn’t bad. Ever since little You went to B City, they only occasionally visited the elders; at other times, there was hardly any interaction. She’d never expected that just after little You had stayed for one night, this exasperating mother-daughter duo would show up before dawn. Liu Ruoling gave a cold laugh and went into the kitchen to prepare little You’s favorite breakfast dishes.

That girl, still dreaming of Little Qing treating her the same as he treats little You? Pure fantasy! The Shangguan family has only one true daughter, and that’s little You. Others are not worthy of being called daughters of the Shangguan family. The only princess of the Shangguan family is Shangguan You.
