“sister-in-law, how are you so smart?” Corey pursed his lips to evoke sympathy. “sister-in-law, you have to understand how terrifying it was! More than 10 old people surrounded me, asking me about my name and my family members. That’s enough, sister-in-law, do you know what happened?”
Corey stood up in excitement as he proclaimed, “They chatted by my ears one after another. At that point, I thought that I reached a duck farm where hundreds or even thousands of ducks were quacking. I was almost driven mad.”
He seemed to still be traumatized from the aftereffects of the encounter.
Rosiley raised her brows. “I have a method to resolve this situation.”
“What method?”
“Just say that you are married.”
Sachin was speechless.
Seeing that he was dumbfounded, Rosiley asked hesitantly, “Surely you didn’t immediately tell them that you are not married when they asked you?”
Corey laughed bitterly. “You are indeed a smart woman, sister-in-law.”
Rosiley was speechless as she rolled her eyes at him. “I am not too smart. You are merely too dumb.”
“I’m not dumb! It was merely unexpected that those old people would be so insistent!” Corey defended himself weakly.
He then added, “Furthermore, I’m too handsome, so they loved me.”
The corner of Rosiley’s mouth twitched. “Didn’t you find them terrifying? Why are you now being narcissistic instead?”
“since that’s the case, accompany me to find Old Chen tomorrow.”
Her words surprised Corey, whose his expression froze. “sister-in-law, are you serious?”
Rosiley nodded. “Of course I am. After all, you’re so handsome. If Old Chen has an unmarried daughter, perhaps you can help me by using your looks.”
She raised her brows at the depressed Corey, a hint of satisfaction hidden within her seemingly innocent smile.
Corey knew that she was mocking him. However, he was truly afraid of encountering that uncontrollable situation again.
Seeing that he was worried, Rosiley stuffed the report into his hands and explained, “Don’t worry. With me around, those elderly people will leave you alone.”
With a woman by his side, the old people would not have any interest in him anymore.
“Are you sure, sister-in-law?” Corey was still worried.
“Really. As long as you don’t call me ‘sister-in-law’, everything will be fine.”
since his sister-in-law promised him, Corey decided to make up his mind. Nodding his head, he replied, “Sure, I will accompany you tomorrow.”
Rosiley nodded her head satisfyingly. “I will take leave tomorrow, and you will fetch me from my house.”
“Sure.” Corey agreed.
“since the matter has been settled happily, let’s go and eat.” After Rosiley finished, she stood up and walked toward the dining room.
Corey followed over as well.
“Is Big Brother not coming back for dinner?”
“Sachin has an ongoing meeting. He won’t be back soon.”
“Oh, Big Brother is so busy! sister-in-law, let’s take him some food after we finish eating.”
