"Xiao Yue, I can't believe it, how come you're such a gossip?" Tang Mingli is practically ready to raise both hands in surrender.
Tang Yue smiles with curved eyes and says, "Uncle, this isn't called gossiping; this is your niece showing concern for you."
She says earnestly, "Uncle, I'm thinking about your lifelong happiness on behalf of my dad."
"..." Tang Mingli simply closes his mouth because if the conversation continues, there's no telling what Tang Yue might end up saying.
As they approach Sister Wei's store, Tang Mingli keeps warning Tang Yue not to talk nonsense, lest the girl gets embarrassed and it leads to misunderstandings.
"Uncle, you've reminded me eight hundred times now. If you keep going on about it, I can't guarantee I won't get annoyed and spill the beans to her," says Tang Yue, rolling her eyes in exasperation. Tang Mingli has repeated his warning so many times, she's almost getting calluses on her ears.
"Brother Tang."
