Chapter 78 Doubt Her
Although this villa is quite old, it was just renovated a few years ago and great efforts have been made in terms of soundproofing, making it much quieter when the door is closed.
Last time Lin Wan and the others moved, the sound of dragging suitcases must have been louder than Shen Qingyang's talking, but I didn't hear it at all in the room.
Ci Yuan frowned and asked me, "What's wrong?"
I pointed to the door, "I can hear the noise outside."
Ci Yuan chuckled, "I can hear it all the time. Is there anything wrong with that?"
I nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, because I couldn't hear it a few days ago, and the sound was louder than this."
Ci Yuan suppressed his smile, "That's not right. It seems that you have been changing, and no one knows why."
I felt heavy, "The only explanation I can think of is that it has something to do with my mother. Maybe this is the reason why my brother is like this."
Ci Yuan sighed, "It's a pity that I have never seen your mother. There is no good way to find her. Otherwise, finding her should solve a lot of mysteries."
I was also helpless, "I guess I have to rely on my father for this matter. He is the only one who knows my mother best, but he has never been reliable. It is too difficult to find my mother."
We chatted for a long time. Aunt Liu knocked on my door and asked me to come down for dinner. Ciyuan also went down with me, but no one else could see him.
Sure enough, my dad came back for dinner. After Shen Qingyang introduced Tao Li to him, he also gave him a red envelope. I don’t know if he was satisfied or just perfunctory.
Shen Qingyang announced a decision, "I plan to let Lily live here from now on. Do you have any opinions or suggestions?"
My dad's tone was neither salty nor bland, and his emotions could not be heard, "As long as you are happy."
I am naturally on Shen Qingyang's side, and if Tao Li lives here, I can observe her more, "Of course I welcome sister-in-law."
Ci Yuan sat in the empty seat next to him, "You are so happy to have this woman living here, so why did you refuse when I asked you to live in the cave?"
How do I answer questions in front of them? Either my dad and Shen Qingyang will guess that Ci Yuan is here, or Tao Li will think that I am just talking to myself.
Fortunately, I had an idea and took out my phone to type, then put it aside just enough for Ci Yuan to see——
[Because I still have to go to class, and I am just an ordinary person. Not only do I have to eat, drink and sleep, I am also very playful. 】
Ci Yuan immediately laughed after reading it, "It turns out that I am nostalgic for this colorful world. So if I stay in your home, will you agree?"
I took the phone again and quickly typed a few lines: [Let me eat first, and we can talk about important matters after I finish eating upstairs.]
Ci Yuan said no more, but I was disturbed by his question. He didn't really want to live in my house, right?
My dad and Shen Qingyang knew about his existence. They could guess it even if I said it to myself, but the nanny and Tao Li didn't know about it.
Tonight was Shen Qingyang's meeting with Tao Li's parents. My dad was very considerate and didn't quarrel with him throughout the dinner. In the end, the meeting ended successfully.
Although I've only met Tao Li face to face, I don't have a good impression of her and I really don't like her, but I know that I'm not jealous that she took Shen Qingyang away.
The last time we met, I thought she was introverted because it was the first time we met, but today she came to our house as a guest, but it made me feel very rude.
Whether Shen Qingyang was talking to my dad or me, she would basically interrupt, and then the two of them would start chatting as if no one was around.
If she has something urgent or important, then I can understand her, but she talks about irrelevant things, so why do she have to interrupt us?
Not only that, her dining etiquette was also bad. We didn’t use public chopsticks, but the spoons were shared, but she held the spoon to her mouth to drink the soup.
In addition, she also likes to turn the dishes. She has to use her chopsticks to pick up a good dish, and finally stirs it up.
It happened that Shen Qingyang had scolded Shen Qingyao's sister and brother severely every time he saw her acting like this before, but when facing Tao Li, she seemed to be blind and unable to see.
I noticed these details when we were in the restaurant before, but it was hard to talk about her. After all, it was the first time we met, but it seemed that it was not convenient to talk about her today.
I'm really curious, what does Shen Qingyang like about Tao Li, so much so that he can ignore even the most basic etiquette and politeness?

Bedroom upstairs.
After lunch, I quickly came up to say hello, and as soon as I entered the room, I asked Ciyuan, "What do you think of my brother's girlfriend?"
Ci Yuan had an undisguised look of disgust on his face, "It's not that good. It has no rules and no manners. I almost couldn't help but strike a few times."
I walked to the bed and lay down on my face, "I'm just saying that I'm not the only one who doesn't like her. How come such an old person doesn't have any tutoring at all?"
Ci Yuan followed and sat on the edge of the bed, "The most important thing is that Shen Qingyang dotes on her so much and obeys her every word. This is not right."
I closed my eyes and rested my mind, "I had suspected something was wrong with Tao Li earlier. Can you tell whether she is a human or a demon? Or let Sen Zai go and smell if she has any demonic aura."
Ci Yuan grabbed my hand and gently squeezed my fingertips, "Although Blazing Dogs can smell monsters, they can't tell whether they are humans or monsters."
It's been a long time since he played with my hands like this, and I'm still not used to it. "If that's the case, how could it track the painting and Tang Yan last time?"
Ci Yuan explained, "That's because we first confirmed that Tang Yan is a demon, and the Blazing Dog has already smelled the painting and the scent of the banshee."
I couldn't help but feel disappointed, "Well... well, it's a pity that we don't have a magic mirror or a sharp eye, so it seems we can't tell Tao Li apart."
Ci Yuan disagreed, "It doesn't matter, we can wait. She wants to live here. I will keep an eye on her. If she is a monster, sooner or later she will leak out."
Now, I don't even need to ask if I mind letting him live here, because he has already found all the reasons to live here.
So from that day on, Ci Yuan and Tao Li moved into my house at the same time, but I didn't tell my dad and Shen Qingyang about his stay.
My dad leaves early and comes home late anyway, so it doesn't matter whether he knows or not. If Shen Qingyang knew about this, he might tell Tao Li Ciyuan's identity.
Tao Li quit her job long ago in order to spend more time with Shen Qingyang. After she moved in, Shen Qingyang resumed his previous life routine.
He dropped me off at school in the morning and picked me up after get off work in the afternoon. So the next morning, I took his car to school and he asked me about Lin Wan.
I casually complained, "If you haven't asked me for so long, I thought you were no longer interested in Lin Wan's investigation results."
Unexpectedly, he actually admitted, "I'm really not as interested as before, because with Lily, I don't care so much about other people and things."
