NOVPUBFeeling a little embarrassed, Tina opened the door carefully.
But what she heard was some cursing.
"Oh my god, Lyla, you are such a nanny, why are you going up to grab the head?"
Lyla cursed rudely, "I have milk for you to drink. Come on, hurry up and kill him for me."
In the living room, Ryan was lying on the chaise longue next to her, and Lyla was lying directly on his lap, both playing with their phones and yelling.
The scene on the other side of the main seat was just as exciting. Abigail was fiddling with her phone with a depressed look on her face, feeling quite at a loss.
Gemma, who was always gentle, well-behaved, docile, and lovely, pressed her phone excitedly and said angrily, "I'm also no way, fuck, a professional jungler is giving away heads..."
Everyone was playing excitedly, and when they saw her come out, they just glanced at her and ignored her, continuing to play the game.
This atmosphere made Tina very happy and relaxed naturally. She walked over and sat down, looking at the empty table, and asked, "Have you not eaten yet?"
"Shut up, eat my feet first if you're hungry, you bunch of rubbish."
Even the elegant and lovely Gemma was concentrating on her phone and didn't really want to pay attention to her.
This wave of games is really full of the flavor of youth, without any of the vulgar meaning as imagined.
All three of them changed into refreshing pajamas. The style of shorts and vests was very cool, relaxing, and casual.
Tina looked to the side and saw that the tableware was already laid out, and the base of the double-flavored hot pot on the newly bought induction cooker was also ready, but from the neatness, it was obvious that the food had not been eaten yet.
Tina's eyes turned red, and she asked tremblingly, "You haven't eaten yet?"
Abigail was the first to answer. She played with her phone without even looking up and said, "Nonsense, we're not awake yet, today is the housewarming banquet... Damn, you're stealing my head again."
The game was over in about ten minutes, and everyone was in a very relaxed state, and no one asked her why she was crying.
"I'm starving!"
Gemma said coquettishly: "Tina, you are sleepy enough, let's eat."
Tina was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Okay!!!"
This seemed like a community ritual. Tina felt everyone's kindness, and her emotions were completely calmed down.
We sat around the dining table. We were not allowed to use open flames in the dormitory, so we planned to have a hot pot as our first meal after moving into the house. It was simple and convenient.
"Gemma is so considerate!"
As soon as Tina sat down, she didn't hesitate to praise Gemma. She bought a double-flavored hotpot, half of which was spicy.
The other half was a plain water base, with a few slices of ginger, pepper, and scallion, all pretty common ingredients.
The dining table was rectangular. Ryan sat at the main seat against the wall. On his left were Tina and Lyla, and on his right were Gemma and Abigail, sitting in tacit agreement.
At this moment, he really felt like the head of the family. Looking at this large group, Ryan even felt a little proud.
Sitting down, Ryan coughed and said, "Let me make this clear first. Everyone, make your own dishes and don't pass them around, especially don't pass them to me."
Abigail rolled her eyes charmingly and said, "I see. You are quite self-aware. Tina is talking about you. Stop showing off your affection here."
"Well, I'd love to!"
Tina said this proudly, already holding the beer and cup.
After pouring a glass for each of them, Ryan raised his glass and said with a smile, "Congratulations on moving into your new home. Congratulations on moving into your new home. You all have your own rooms."
"Cheers!"
He drank it all in high spirits. Gemma, who claimed that she never drank, also finished it with a frown.
After finishing the first cup, she blushed and poured herself another cup, saying softly, "I want to thank Senior Abigail. She paid for all my shopping. I'll toast to you."
Abigail smiled and clinked her glass with hers, then touched her face teasingly and said, "Don't say such polite words in the future."
"Kindness!"
Gemma nodded obediently, and the other three were speechless. Why did it feel like these two were starting to have an affair?
Lyla and Gemma bought vegetables together. Since Lyla was responsible for paying, she naturally would not save money. She is a wealthy woman now.
The beef they bought was all marbling parts, cut very thinly and sold based on the knife skills. Yellow throat, ox tongue, heart tube, and the like were naturally indispensable.
They also bought a lot of seafood, including big golden abalone, extra-large mantis shrimp with roe, and fish meat sliced from melon seeds.
The seafood alone cost several thousand dollars. Gemma was so amazed at the sight. For an ordinary family, such a meal would definitely be considered extremely extravagant.
They started chatting lively while eating hotpot. Gemma was the quietest one, but her burgundy little face looked cuter the more she looked at it.
Abigail usually doesn't talk much, but Lyla and Tina were chatting happily, though no one tacitly mentioned that Tina had just cried.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Ryan lay on the sofa smoking a cigarette. The air conditioner in the living room was very cool.
Abigail and Lyla were not so virtuous. When Tina and Gemma cleaned the table, they only had to wash the pots and dishes and pack up the rest and throw them away.
Ryan stretched lazily and asked, "Abigail, how busy are you over there?"
Abigail said with a smile, "The furniture and appliances have been ordered, and they've been arranged to be delivered together tomorrow. I won't stay here tonight. I have to go back and buy new bedding with my mother."
They had already been to the provincial capital that morning to take photos and submit various documents to apply for passports. With Professor Anglo's students busy running around, the situation wasn't a complete mess.
After all, Ubaya had been rootless for so long. Abigail, like her, had visited many homes since leaving her father, and they all lived in rented, shabby houses.
Now she finally had her own home and a sense of belonging.
Ubaya still felt a little nervous and guilty.
But she was inevitably happy. Under Abigail's guidance, she gradually relaxed and began decorating their little home with great interest.
With Professor Anglo's intervention, Ubaya now went straight into vacation mode.
Although, according to the treatment plan, she would be cured in one month.
However, considering the journey, she was given a two-month vacation, and a formal employment contract would be signed after her return.
From a contract worker to a regular employee—it was a kind of protection for her, providing stability in the future.
"Gemma, come and help me pack my things when the time comes."
When Abigail spoke, she rested her head directly on Gemma's thigh.
Gemma nodded shyly. Her look of first love made Ryan firmly believe that Abigail's mischievous claws would sooner or later ravage this lovely little girl and make her moan continuously.
Abigail answered the phone and left first. They said they wanted to take a walk after dinner and buy some things.
Ryan would never go to such a place, so he started looking at the menus of Talia's store and Declan's store.
The prices of meat were almost the same, with Talia's place being slightly more expensive. The prices of alcohol and beverages were also very competitive, so there wasn't much to compare.
It was past dinner time and not busy anymore, so Ryan went straight to Talia's barbecue restaurant. She was still handing out flyers at the door, looking very eager.
The mature, beautiful, and hot beauty had changed into a cheongsam.
Her round, plump, and voluptuous figure—a classic Eastern allure—made the men passing by drool.
After finding an empty private room and sitting down, Ryan took the three menus and said directly, "I took a look, and it's not that complicated!"
"Just use some crude and ruthless malicious competition. Make a new menu and cut the prices of all dishes by one-third."
