Standing Right Next To You Chapter 21
Advertisement
Lina watched as the scenery changed from the bustle of the city and the big buildings to the serene and calming greenery that made the air feel clean.
The car pulled into the driveway of Yang Manor.
"I'll never get tired of this beautiful place!" She exclaimed.
They saw the Yang Manor getting bigger and bigger as they got closer to it.
The beautiful Manor looked even more breathtaking with the different shades of yellow, orange and red spilling on it, thanks to the sunset. The tall trees surrounding it made it look like a house hidden in the woods.
She quickly took her phone out and snapped a couple of pictures and posted it on her Instagram which instantly got likes and comments. Many from her college friends and colleagues back in America.
'Why are these people awake now?' She wondered then quickly replied to a few of them.
The car came to a halt in front of the main door and she looked up from her phone.
She saw the chubby ass fountain and decided to share it with her friends.
"Wade, let's take pictures here!" She dragged him along.
Posing in different ways she let Wade do a mini photoshoot for her.
The pictures started out like a typical Instagram model poses and then led to funny ones.
The former pictures were of her posing while standing with her hands in her pocket, the 'look at how my hair flies with the breeze' candid shot, the turning to look back and the standing in the sun set.
Soon the sun had set and the gardener switched on the lights in the driveway and the fountain.
This time they clicked the pictures that would be saved in a safe place never to see the light of social media!
Wade clicked pictures of her standing on the ledge of the fountain where she was peeing like a man, she even had one where she was poking the cherubs butt with a long stick she found.

They ended the shoot with a multitude of selfies that Lina forced Wade to co-star in.
The winky face, pout and many more and sent them to her other two brothers on their message group *FIERCE FOUR* with the caption,
"This is what you get for staying away for too long! Brother Wade is my new fave!! #1bro"
Wade's phone vibrated and he read the texts she just sent.
"You are my #1 sister too!!" He reached out for a hug.
Swiftly avoiding him,, she looked at him like he was an idiot.
"I am your only sister!" She told, standing with her hands on her hips.
"I do have cousins on my mother's side, in case you forgot?" He reminded her.
"I'm your only sister still in the same country as you! Precise enough?" She challenged with her eyebrow raised.
Wade just nodded seriously.
Then they both started laughing at their childish behavior.
Their laughter attracted the attention of Lucille and Mandy who were returning from the pavilion beside the Manor after their evening tea.
Mandy walked while holding Lucille's hand, supporting her.
"There goes my peace." Lina muttered when she saw them from the corner of her eye.
Wade too went back to his poker face when he saw the two women walking towards them.
Mandy stood and gave Lina a nasty look which caused Wade to glare at her.
'That's him!!! I finally met him after so many days.'
Mandy's expressions changed from the arrogance that she showed Lina into a blush when facing Wade.
'Wait, there is something different about him today.' She then observed him closely.
Feeling her scrutinizing eyes, Wade squirmed a bit.
Feeling his discomfort, Lina stood in front of him protectively, hiding him behind her body. At least how much she could cover with her body which was small compared to his.

Mandy saw Lina's move and glared at her again, then she walked into the house like a queen.
The servants had already moved Lina's shopping bags to the hall while they were clicking pictures.
She leisurely walked in with Wade following her and was satisfied with what she saw.
---
On the couch inside, about a dozen of her bags filled with her shopping haul were placed neatly.
'They are placed according to the bag's size in ascending order. OCD much?' She felt that the same person must have arranged her room.
Mandy who had entered before Lina was staring wide eyed at the brands on the bags.
'Few of those can be found only in one place. Phoenix Mall !' She stepped forward to look into the bags.
Excitedly she wanted to pull out the items in the bag. But was stopped by a strong and menacing voice.
"What do you think you are doing?" Said Wade, when he saw Mandy picking up the smallest bag from the pile.
It contained the watch that Lina had bought for him, a watch collecting maniac.
He wanted to buy it but looking at the price he always coaxed his heart and looked away. So how was he supposed to control himself when his kiddo offered to gift it to him?
'That's Lina's compensation for making me work hard these two years! Now it's getting dirtied in this rodent's paws!' Wade, who had a serious case of possessive tendencies was provoked. He hated it when other people touched what was his.
Hearing his voice, Mandy and Lucille looked at the new guy who was disrespecting them in their own house.
Lina just sat on a single seat couch on the side and munched the sour gummies that Butler Ping had discreetly given to her when he passed by.
"Who are you to question me?" Mandy roared.
'He may look like that guy, but seeing that he has no piercings, I'm sure that they just look similar.' She thought, then faced him with arrogance.
"My father brought these gifts for me. Who do you think you are to stop me from opening them?" She questioned him.
Lina who choked on the gummy was immediately offered a glass of lemonade which she gulped down, then looked up to see who had given her the refreshing drink.
She saw the same young man who had supported her argument when Mandy fell on her face at the dinner table.
Smiling gratefully, she turned back to watch the show.
"When did I father a child? That too such an old child?" He looked back at Lina as if he was really confused.
Once again Lina choked, on the lemonade this time.
Mandy's arrogant expression soured at being called OLD by the guy who looked like her crush.
"This is Mandy Rong, I had told you about her before, brother. Our new sister." Lina explained her identity.
"And that's her mother, Lucille Rong." She gestured to Lucille and introduced her.
"Aunt, cousin, this is Wade Luo. Our brother." Lina stressed the word 'brother' to stop any thoughts that Mandy might have about him.
Listening to Lina call them cousin and aunt, everyone had different thoughts about it.
Lina- 'Let's mess with them a little.'
Wade - 'Here she goes again, playing around. This little demon!'
Lucille - ' What is this brat planning? She can't have accepted us so quickly.'
Mandy - 'Daddy must have asked her to be nice to me. I am the older sister anyway.'
Mandy was as delusional as always.
