He placed the items he was carrying on the coffee table, “Eat up.”

After two seconds, he added, “Just picked it up on the way.”

Tang Xi didn’t expect Xiao Chi to co so late to bring her dinner, she was stunned for a mont before opening it, and instantly, the aroma of the dishes filled the room.

Tang Xi looked towards Xiao Chi.

She hadn’t anticipated that he would bring dinner for her?

A faint warmth welled up in her heart at that mont.

Despite seeming like a rich heir who is always ready to argue, he is actually…

quite considerate.

Tang Xi took out the food from the bag.

They were all snacks.

It must be the seaside food street developed by the Fu’s that he ntioned, and to Tang Xi’s surprise, there was even a cup of milk tea.

After taking a sip, her throat felt warm.

Having filled her stomach, Tang Xi smiled at Xiao Chi, “Thank you, Xiao Chi.”

“Thank for what?” Xiao Chi froze for a mont as he watched Tang Xi’s serious deanor and the smile on her lips, suddenly finding that she seed even prettier after not seeing her for just a few hours, despite being ill.

Without makeup and in plain pajamas, her smile was stunningly beautiful.

Xiao Chi hastily waved his hand in a dismissive gesture, “It was nothing.”

In truth, it wasn’t “nothing”.

He knew she was stuck in the room with a fever and specifically bought so snacks before leaving.

He stood up, “You’ve finished eating, so I’ll be leaving.

Rember tomorrow…” He coughed twice, “Forget it, seeing you looking so weak is really troubleso.

Just rest up well, I won’t call you tomorrow.”

Watching Xiao Chi’s retreating back, Tang Xi had wanted to inquire about Chen Jinyan, but then thought better of it.

Xiao Chi had already helped her a lot; without his connections, she wouldn’t even have managed to et soone like Chen Jinyan.

Chen Jinyan’s assistant had contacted her several tis, briefly updating her on Tang Shiyue’s situation.

This year’s college entrance examination was fast approaching, and he certainly wouldn’t be able to participate.

If Fu Chenglin’s parents decided not to settle and instead pursued legal action, she heard that Fu Chenglin ca from a well-off family… she feared that Shiyue’s future might be ruined.

–

The next day, Tang Xi’s fever had subsided, though she still had a sore throat and a stuffy nose.

She went to the front desk wanting to find out Chen Jinyan’s room number, but then thought that it might be inappropriate, so she decided to wait for him in the lobby’s lounge area instead.

She figured, didn’t they organize a trip to the island today?

Then Chen Jinyan should be going as well; she should be able to et him here.

Laughter and footsteps approached.

Su ngshu, Xu Manxue, Jiang ngrou, and a few other ladies walked out together, wearing brightly colored bikinis that were very eye-catching.

The air was filled with the rich scent of won’s perfu.

Su ngshu, draped in a shawl, revealed a pair of long, fair legs.

She raised an eyebrow and glanced at Tang Xi, muttering under her breath, “So people really have nine lives…”

“Why do we have to go to the island with this bumpkin?

It’s so bad for luck, really puts a damper on things.”

“Oh co on, let’s not bother with such a person.

Look, she doesn’t even have a decent outfit…” A socialite in Su ngshu’s entourage comnted, then suddenly covered her mouth, “Oh ngshu, my apologies, I forgot she is your sister…

I didn’t an to target you.”

Su ngshu quickly said in a mild tone, “Xiao Ning, it’s who should apologize, I didn’t manage my sister well.”

Engaged in their own conversations, they had already perford a whole drama without Tang Xi saying a word.

Right now, Tang Xi didn’t want to bother with them and remained seated in the lounge area, taking her phone out to check the ti; it was exactly nine o’clock in the morning.

“I just bought this bikini, I wonder if Mr.

Chen will like it,” one of the socialites said, blushing.

“Xiao Ning, with your figure, I bet Chen Jinyan will notice you right away, I’ve heard he’s quite the prestigious lawyer in North City and it seems he doesn’t have a girlfriend…”

Su ngshu walked up to Tang Xi and spoke loudly on purpose, “Tang Xi, I have an extra swimsuit, do you want to change into it and co with us?”

“No need.” Tang Xi smiled slightly, her tone slightly heavier, “Thank you for your kindness.”

Su ngshu maintained an elegantly proper smile on her face.

She bent over and said in a tone audible only to the two of them, “You really are lucky, Tang Xi, to have not died in the sea.

Rest assured, I won’t make things easy for you.”

Tang Xi’s fingers clenched tightly.

She knew that her fall into the water had sothing to do with Su ngshu!

However, at the mont, she didn’t let Su ngshu’s words provoke her emotions but instead stayed calm and collected in her response, “My dear sister, rest assured, you’re still alive, how could I dare to go ahead of you?”

Su ngshu gritted her teeth, about to say sothing, when footsteps approached.

Then ca the respectful voice of the receptionist, “President Fu.”

Fu Tingzhou walked out, followed a few steps behind by young masters like Xiao Chi.

Tang Xi stood up, her gaze sweeping around, but she did not see Chen Jinyan anywhere.

When Xiao Chi saw her, he walked over and naturally blocked her shoulder, “Didn’t you get told to rest?

Why are you out and about?

Since you’re out, co join us.”

Tang Xi stepped back, subconsciously trying to avoid Xiao Chi’s touch.

That’s when Xiao Chi grabbed the back of her collar, leaning in close to her, “Stop avoiding, Fu Tingzhou has already gone with your sister.”

Tang Xi looked towards the entrance; by now, Fu Tingzhou and Su ngshu had already left, and only a silhouette could be seen.

She breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

Recalling her composure, she looked at Xiao Chi, “I’m not avoiding, I just feel…

uncomfortable.”

Xiao Chi bit on a cigarette, not bothering to argue with her, “Let’s go.”

Tang Xi had no choice but to follow.

Today, everyone was preparing to play on a small island.

The tourist district developed by the Fu family is backed by Haiwang Island.

A tourist area developed with tens of billions invested, the biggest investnt was on this naturally ford island.

As well as the surrounding chain of products.

Several yachts were docked by the shore.

Handso n and beautiful won dressed coolly, seemingly all waiting to surf the seas and stroll on Haiwang Island.

Tang Xi, dressed in simple long clothes and pants, was pulled onto a two-person jet ski by Xiao Chi.

“Hold tight to , or don’t fall off,” he said, then abruptly twisted the throttle and sped off—

Tang Xi’s screams were drowned in the sea breeze.

Instinctively, she held onto Xiao Chi, preventing herself from falling off.

In the distance, a deep gaze kept watching her, and when he saw the woman holding onto Xiao Chi, Fu Tingzhou’s face clearly showed displeasure.

Su ngshu was wearing a light pink bikini, draped in a beige shawl.

The sea breeze tousled her long hair.

Today her makeup gave off an innocent and pure look, very calculated.

Although it appeared to be light makeup, not a detail was missing, including eyeliner and doe eyes.

“Oh my, the wind is so strong,” she exclaid.

The shawl could not fully cover her partially exposed figure; with a delicate, tiny scream, the gaze of many gentlen shifted towards her, with Zhang Chen staring intensely.

Su ngshu smiled shyly, holding her shawl, yet felt extrely smug inside.

She loved the attention, especially from these wealthy individuals, unable to take their eyes off her.

But on the surface, she acted bashfully, “Tingzhou, let’s quickly get on the yacht.”

As she spoke, she tried to link arms with Fu Tingzhou, but he had already walked ahead.

Su ngshu’s attempt fell through.
