Chapter 522


    Charlie nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. White informed me that the work will bepleted next month


    and we can move in then."


    ire said, "Would it be good to move in right after the renovation ispleted? Shouldn''t we wait


    for a while for the smell of the paint and whatever to disappear first?"


    ine interjected, "Ah, it''s okay. I went to see the progress with your dad the other day. They used


    imported non-polluting materials for the renovation containing zero formaldehyde. There was really


    no smell at all in the house. In fact, they installed an air purifying system in the house that reces


    fresh air twenty-four hours a day, it is very advanced and healthy!" 6


    ire nodded without a word. She was rather indifferent and aloof about the whole idea of moving t


    0 the Thompson First vi, but Charlie was right. They would not live on the same floor as her


    parents after moving into the new house. In this case, they would have more privacy and personal


    space, unlike now, where there was no such thing as privacy even in their own room.


    Moreover, she promised Loreen that she would reserve a room for her in the vi and invite her to


    live in. After all, it wasn''t so nice for a girl to stay alone at


    a hotel.


    Charlie couldn''t be bothered by the vi. He lived a great andvish life before he was eight, and


    spent the rest of his childhood and adolescence in the orphanage. He was already at the stage


    where he was not pleased by external gains and not saddened by personal losses.


    At this moment, ine received a text message that made her smile when she nced at it.


    She lifted her delightful gaze and said, "An old friend o f mine is asking me to y eight rounds of


    mahjong at her ce this afternoon. I won''t be home for dinner.”


    Jacob asked in surprise, "Eight rounds? Won''t it take about ten hours then?”


    ine rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "So what if it’s ten hours? I even yed for two days


    straight when I was young!”


    Jacob tried a persuasive voice instead. "You said it yourself, when you were young, but you''re not


    young anymore! Sitting for long hours makes one prone to many illnesses-lumbar disc herniation,


    cervical problems, high blood pressure, all of which are caused by sitting for too long."


    ine waved her hand agitatedly, "Ah, shut it! I’m feeling fine, don''t curse me!”


    ire frowned and said in a concerned tone, "Mom, I don''t mind if you y mahjong for leisure, but


    please, there are two things I want to say, so listen. One, don''t y for too long and two, please


    don''t y by the rules that will make you win or lose thousands of thousands per round, okay?”


    "Argh, you''re no fun! We''re just ying to pass our time!” ine said nonchntly, "Besides, I’m


    doing this for our family! Look at your dad who’s a loser.


    Look at Charlie, who isn''t only a loser, but also a liar who goes around deceiving people-I bet he will


    cause trouble to our family! And you, you are still in the beginning of your business and have not


    earned any money yet. How else can your dad and I retire leisurely? I’m depending on mahjong to


    earn some side ie for the family!"

    Charlie was agitated by his mother-inw''s harsh remarks. She still mocked him once in a while and


    even felt that he was a big liar. In his mind, he imagined such a scene-he would p her across the


    face and said, "Since you think I''m a big liar, then don''t move into the vi that I''ve gotten from


    deceiving people!"


    His mother-inw needed to learn some lessons for herself!
