Chapter 177
I said to her without much tone, “Auntie, it’s already late now, please take the soup back, I want to sleep.”
My aunt looked at me with a sad expression and said, “Esmeralda, do you really hate us, mother and son? Look at the tone of your words now, it’s like you’re chasing after me. You didn’t used to be like this before.”
I didn’t want to say anything.
She lived for so many years, what didn’t she understand?
Why doesn’t she know the reason for my current tone?
I saw through their game, while the mother and son pretended to be clueless.
My current attitude must be resolutely indifferent, otherwise they, the mother and son, will keep bothering me endlessly in the future.
Auntie glanced at me again and said, “Yes, I was wrong about seducing the big boss last time.”
But looking at it from a different perspective, I also helped you, if it weren’t for me going to the big boss first to test the waters, then it would have been you who got kicked out by the bodyguards.
You see, today you didn’t do anything, so the boss punished you to do a day’s hard work.
If that day you went up to seduce him and he got angry, it wouldn’t be as simple as punishing you to do hard work.

I sneered in my heart.
What I disliked the most was their tendency to shirk responsibility and distort the truth.
They were wrong, and yet they shamelessly claimed to have helped me.
Our values did not align, so there was no point in talking to her further.
I said lightly, “Auntie, I am really tired today, please go back.”
“Please don’t come knocking on my door anymore in the future, both you and Trevin. It really disturbs me.”
I spoke to this extent, and surprisingly, Auntie didn’t get angry.
She just sighed and said, “Alright, alright, I can see that you’re really tired.”
Don’t worry, in the future, neither I nor Trevin will come to disturb you again. It’s just that Trevin was not fortunate enough.
She stood up as she spoke, looking like she was about to leave.
I felt relieved and followed her to see her off
Seeing the bowl of silver ear soup on the coffee table, I quickly picked it up and handed it to her, saying, “Auntie, don’t forget to take this bowl of soup with you.”
Auntie said to me, “Hey, I’ve brought this for you. Just drink it, otherwise if I take it back like this, that naughty boy will pester me again.”
I shook my head, firmly refusing to drink.
Aunt sighed and said, “Esmeralda, don’t be like this. It’s just a bowl of
Chapter177
soup, consider it as the last bit of our friendship after knowing each other for so long.”
After you finished drinking. Auntie took the bowl back and promised that she and Trevin would never bother you again.
I furrowed my brows.
What does it mean?
If I didn’t drink this soup, she wouldn’t leave?
Auntie looked at me kindly and said. “Esmeralda, we are different from you. We have been rural people since childhood and cannot stand wastefulness.”
Trevin and I were already full. We couldn’t finish this soup when it was brought back, what a waste. You should just drink it.
You finished drinking, and Auntie left immediately.
Exhausted, all I wanted was for her to leave quickly.
Upon hearing her last sentence, I calmly replied, “Fine, I’ll drink. I hope you remember your words, Auntie, and never bother me again in the future.”
After saying that, I drank the bowl of soup in one breath and returned the empty bowl to her.
Auntie took the bowl and didn’t leave immediately. She just smiled at me and asked, “Is it delicious?”
I was too lazy to answer her, so I just opened the door and said expressionlessly, “Auntic, please go back.”
“Ah, okay. Auntie has gone back, so you should rest early.”
She was speaking as she walked out, but stopped again at the door.
“Oh no, Auntie forgot something!”
I frowned at her and asked, “What’s wrong again?”
Auntie looked into my room and said, “I brought soup over and also wanted to borrow some laundry detergent from you. We ran out of laundry detergent at home, and you see, I live on the sixth floor and I’m too lazy to go down and buy it, so…”
Without waiting for her to finish, I went to the bathroom.
I gave her more than half a bucket of laundry detergent and said, “Take it and use it, no need to return it.”
This borrowing and returning only added trouble.
