Just as she was about to jump up and pull Secretary Si away, Tang Li tugged at her clothes.

Tang Li smiled and whispered to her, “Second Sister, don’t you think Secretary Si is very nervous now?”

Tang Zitong immediately widened her eyes and stared at Secretary Si. She wanted to say that she couldn’t tell if Secretary Si was nervous or not, but at that moment, she suddenly saw that his ears were completely red.

She suddenly didn’t want to stop Secretary Si. Instead, she felt that he was actually a little cute.

At this moment, Secretary Si looked at her.

Tang Zitong looked back at him provocatively.

Secretary Si said, “I want to date Zitong on the premise of marriage. I hope you all can agree.”

The Tang family widened their eyes and looked at Secretary Si in disbelief.

Tang Li said, “Secretary Si, you haven’t even spent the time to get to know my second sister, nor have you told her your feelings. Don’t you think it’s too rash to come to see her parents and… make such a request?”

Tang Zitong, who felt like she had been struck by lightning, suddenly came back to her senses and shouted angrily, “That’s right. You haven’t even told me your feelings yet, and you never said anything nice to me. Why should I date you? Also, you were so mean to me before. Who knows if you’ll continue to be mean to me in the future? I’m not a masochist. Why should I agree to date you?”

As Tang Zitong spoke, she jumped up and pushed Secretary Si to the side. “Go, just go.”

Secretary Si stood there without moving and looked at her with pursed lips.

Tang Zitong grabbed his hand and glared at him. “Are you leaving or not?”

Only then did Secretary Si follow her to the side.

Looking at the two of them leaving hand in hand, Second Madam smiled and patted her thigh. “That young man is really honest and straightforward. I think Si…”

Tang Li reminded her, “Si Haocheng.”

“Ah, right. Si Haocheng is not bad.”

First Madam smiled and nodded. “He is indeed honest and capable as well.”

At this point, she asked Tang Li, “Li, do you know about Secretary Si?”

“I heard from Yihan before that his parents are university professors and he has an older sister who’s a researcher.”

“Ah! An intellectual family!”

“Right.”

First Madam suddenly became worried. “With Zitong’s personality, if she really marries into such a family, will she be incompatible with his family?”

Hearing that, Second Madam was a little worried too. “Will their family think that our Zitong is illiterate?”

Tang Lin added, “With Second Sister’s education level, she’s really illiterate in his family.”

Tang Huan nodded as well.

Tang Li smiled and said, “Don’t worry. If Second Sister can marry Secretary Si in the future, that means she is approved by Secretary Si’s family. Maybe they prefer someone like Second Sister to be their daughter-in-law.”

First Madam and Second Madam looked at each other and smiled.

Second Uncle, who was sitting at the side, also smiled and said, “What are you worried about so early? They haven’t even dated yet.”

After about ten minutes, Tang Zitong walked back alone.

Everyone surrounded her and asked her what was going on.

Tang Zitong blushed, but she didn’t say anything. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. “Stop it. Ask me after we started dating.”

With that, she pulled Tang Li up. “Fourth Sister, let’s go and see Ziqing first.”

With that, they walked away.

After walking for a while, Tang Zitong heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest. “Ah, I was really scared to death by what that Secretary Si did just now. He’s really weird. He actually talked to my family before talking to me about it.”

Tang Li smiled and said, “Just now, First Aunt and Second Aunt said that Secretary Si is an honest person.”

“Pfft! He’s not honest. He did it to prank me and make me embarrassed.”

“Do you have feelings for him?”

Tang Zitong was suddenly lost in thought. After a while, she mumbled, “He has always been a sharp-tongued person, so I didn’t find him likable. But since last night, I think he has a cute side.”

Tang Li looked at her and smiled without saying anything.

The two of them went straight to the courtyard.

The two little ones did not go out. When Tang Li and Tang Zitong entered, they immediately ran out of the room to welcome them.

“Godmother, Second Aunt.”

“Hey, two little darlings. I haven’t seen you for a few days. Second Aunt misses you.”

Tang Zitong touched Linlin’s face and touched Qiqi’s head. She asked Tang Li, “Why didn’t you take them out these two days?”

Tang Li only said, “There are too many people. Everyone is busy and doesn’t have time to take care of them.”

Tang Zitong felt that it made sense, so she stopped talking and asked, “Where’s Ziqing?”

Tang Li brought her to a house next door.

Other than the main house, there were several other small ones. One of them was occupied by two butlers, the other two by servants, and the last one was empty.

Su Ziqing was resting there.

Tang Li had treated Su Ziqing when she came back last night. Now, she looked like she was asleep.

Tang Zitong stood by the bed and looked at Su Ziqing. She frowned and asked Tang Li, “Fourth Sister, how did Ziqing get injured?”

Tang Li thought for a moment. It was easier for Tang Zitong to accept things that science could not explain, so she said, “Someone used a special power to damage her internal organs.”

“Ah! That serious?” Tang Zitong remembered how powerful Tang Li was and asked, “Fourth Sister, can you cure Ziqing quickly?”

“Yeah.”

Tang Zitong was relieved.

“Who is that person?”

“Qi Lingxuan.”

“The one from the Qi family?”

“Yeah.”

Tang Zitong frowned.

Tang Li said, “This person is very capable. If you meet him in the future, don’t provoke him if I’m not nearby.”

Tang Zitong nodded. She believed everything Tang Li said. Although she was very angry that Qi Lingxuan hurt Su Ziqing, she knew her limits and would definitely not hit a rock with an egg.

Tang Li still had to entertain the guests. Many guests were leaving today, so she had to send them off with Qi Yihan. She let Tang Zitong, Qiqi, and Linlin stay here while she went out alone.

After sending all the guests away, Tang Li went to give Situ Jin one last acupuncture treatment.
