Give Me Another Smile

Chapter 26: Different



Chapter 26: Different

"Cough, cough" Tang Yu choked on her food, her delicate face turning beet red.

Yin Zhao-an hurriedly poured Tang Yu a cup of warm water when she saw this. Then, while gently patting Tang Yu on the back, she naggingly said, "Don't be in such a hurry when eating. No one is fighting over the food with you."

Meanwhile, Yin Changcheng held his head and sighed. He felt as if his daughter was an exact copy of his wife. Even the way Yin Zhao-an spoke resembled Wang Zhen perfectly.

After waiting for Tang Yu to recover, Yin Zhao-an returned to her seat.

Although the conversation was interrupted, Yin Changcheng still chose to correct his daughter's misconception, saying, "An-An, you can't just casually call someone your wife."

"Why?"

Yin Changcheng took a moment to organize his words. Then, he cleared his throat and said, "You can only call someone your wife after you have married them. Your mother and I are married, so I can call her my wife. You, however, must refer to Little Yu as your big sister."

Tang Yu fervently nodded on one side, expressing her approval.

After pondering over her father's words for a moment, Yin Zhao-an suddenly smiled and said, "Then, I'll just have to marry Tang-Tang. That way, I can say she's my wife, right?"

"You little s" No! I must endure it! Yin Changcheng's face turned bright red from anger. After taking a deep breath, he said, "Nevermind. I won't continue talking about this with you, but you best get this notion out of your mind. Otherwise, your mother will take care of you once she comes home."

Not wanting to let his blood pressure rise even more than it already did, Yin Changcheng wolfed down his food and fled to the study. Before closing the door, he said, "Bring the dishes into the kitchen once you're done eating. Also, stop serving food to Little Yu. I don't think she can finish that much food."

Yin Zhao-an, putting another fat prawn into Tang Yu's bowl, froze. However, after hesitating for only a second, she resumed adding more food into Tang Yu's full bowl. Then, she smiled and said to Tang Yu, "No problem. You can just give it to me if you can't finish."

Although Yin Zhao-an was smiling, the expression she wore was evidently strange.

Tang Yu silently observed Yin Zhao-an, noting the distress that was written all over the face of the child who didn't know how to hide her true emotions. However, she couldn't figure out what Yin Zhao-an was stressing over.

Tang Yu was never a big eater, so she couldn't help but feel a little frustrated when faced with the big bowl of food before her. Just when she was about to sneak into the kitchen to throw away the excess, she saw Yin Zhao-an looking at her with a smile.

Tang Yu felt a little embarrassed as she held her bowl. Then, she softly asked, "C-Can I stop eating?"

"You shouldn't waste food~" Yin Zhao-an said in a gentle tone.

"...Oh."

Tang Yu dejectedly picked up her chopsticks again. However, before she could resume eating, her bowl was snatched out of her hand. Even her chopsticks were stolen.

Subsequently, a scene that gave her mind a violent shock appeared in front of her eyes. The scene was so shocking that even her face twitched a little.

When Yin Zhao-an noticed Tang Yu's consternation, she simply gave Tang Yu a smile before she continued scarfing down Tang Yu's leftovers.

"Stop eating it," Tang Yu said, frowning as she walked over to snatch back her bowl. The Yin Zhao-an in her memories would never behave like this.

Yin Zhao-an was a little confused by Tang Yu's reaction. However, she could clearly sense that Tang Yu was in a bad mood. At a loss on what to do, she rubbed the tip of her nose and said, "Then...okay. I won't eat it anymore." Then, she tentatively took the bowl in Tang Yu's hand and pointed at the dining table, saying, "I'll clean up the table, then."

Tang Yu stood in place as she watched Yin Zhao-an busily move the dirty dishes into the kitchen, falling into deep thought.

She's different

Tang Yu found that many things about Yin Zhao-an had changed after she reincarnated.

The first time Tang Yu saw Yin Zhao-an appearing before her covered in scars was in middle school. Yin Zhao-an had fought against some delinquents off-campus at the time. That was also when Yin Zhao-an started growing out her hair. She did so to use her bangs to cover a scar on her forehead.

Yin Zhao-an protected Tang Yu because she was weak. However, she did so with the mindset of a child leader. More specifically, whenever others asked Yin Zhao-an why she was protecting Tang Yu, she would answer with something like, "I'm the only one who can bully her."

Yin Zhao-an was a picky eater and never ate food that wasn't freshly prepared. She never changed this bad habit, even after getting beaten up by Wang Zhen numerous times.

Yin Zhao-an disliked following others from behind. She liked to walk at the front like a leader...

Yin Zhao-an would never care about other people's eating habits

"Tang-Tang! Tang-Tang! Why are you crying?"

When Yin Zhao-an left the kitchen and saw Tang Yu idly standing next to the dining table shedding tears, she couldn't help but be startled. Hurriedly, she walked over to Tang Yu while wiping her wet hands against her shirt. Then, she clumsily embraced Tang Yu with one arm and reached for the box of tissue on the table.

The sudden feeling of grievance Tang Yu felt made her lose control of herself. Even though she felt that she looked like a fool for crying suddenly, she still couldn't help but let her tears run.

"I'm fine," Tang Yu said as she snatched the tissue from Yin Zhao-an's hand and fled.

Yin Zhao-an also wished to cry after experiencing this confusing situation. Fortunately, her father didn't see this situation. Otherwise, she'd have to receive a scolding for no reason.

...

Tang Yu had packed all the clothes she needed and brought them to Yin Zhao-an's room. However, even though she was familiar with every part of the room, she dared not go ahead and use the bathroom first. After all, this was supposed to be the first time she had visited Yin Zhao-an's room, and it would be very impolite of her to use the bathroom without the host's consent.

Thus, when Yin Zhao-an returned to her room, the first thing she saw was Tang Yu staring at a fresh set of clothes.

When Yin Zhao-an saw this scene, a few drops of cold sweat formed on her forehead. Her Tang-Tang's emotion's truly were erratic, coming and going as they pleased.

"Go ahead and take a bath first, Tang-Tang. I'll go..." Before Yin Zhao-an could finish her words, Tang Yu had already swooshed into the bathroom, her speed shocking Yin Zhao-an. "...after you."

Have I been...keeping Tang-Tang awake?

Oh, no! How sinful of me!
