In that instant, Ji Yebai felt his left atrium was completely filled.
Even if the whole world abandoned him, her simple "I believe you" was enough to outweigh everything.
He pushed the door open and saw Ning Xixi nonchalantly hang up the phone and toss her cellphone onto the bed.
"Erxi, ti to eat."
He called out casually and asked, "Who was on the phone?"
"Not telling you~" Ning Xixi made a funny face at him.
Ji Yebai calmly picked up her phone and checked the call history. It was an unfamiliar number. He called it back, and soone quickly answered.
"Ning Xixi, co to your senses! I’m genuinely doing this for your good! Do you know how terrifying Ji Yebai is, and yet you still married him! Believe , he’s not a good person at all!" A rapid-fire string of words like a machine gun erupted over the phone.
Ji Yebai raised his brow, "Su Wanxia?"
Hearing his voice, the person on the other end instantly fell silent.
After a while, Su Wanxia angrily said, "Ji Yebai, you know clearly what you’ve done! What right do you have to marry Ning Xixi? You’re nothing but a murderer! A murderer!"
"And what’s it to you?"
These four words, like a well-tid move in Tai Chi, lightly retorted, leaving Su Wanxia almost speechless.
This guy... How can he still be so self-righteous?
"I won’t stand by and watch Xixi be ruined by you, Ji Yebai, you’ll regret this!" After saying, Su Wanxia hung up the phone abruptly.
Ning Xixi furrowed her delicate brows, "What did she say to you? I know she’s just talking nonsense, don’t take it to heart..."
Feeling his heart soften, Ji Yebai put his big hand on Ning Xixi’s shoulder, "Erxi... what if she wasn’t talking nonsense?"
Ning Xixi let out an "Ah," and as she realized what Ji Yebai ant, a chill ran down her spine.
"Dabai... did you really, kill soone?"
...
The little girl’s question reverberated clearly in the silent room.
Ji Yebai pressed his thin lips together, just about to speak, when a figure burst through the door with a rush!
"Yebai, Xixi, you two made it to Weibo’s trending topics!" Ji’s mom announced gleefully, an iPad in her hand, "Look, you see!"
Ji Yebai twitched his mouth, "Mom, before you co into our room, could you knock first? What if we’re... not decent?"
Ji’s mom was surprised and covered her mouth, "Xixi can’t even get out of bed, what do you still want to do? You beast!"
"It’s not what I want to do, it’s..."
"Didn’t you two not do anything?" Ji’s mom gave him a sidelong glance, "If you did anything, I wouldn’t acknowledge you as my son!"
Ji Yebai felt exhausted.
"Mom, am I really your biological son?"
"Silly child, of course not."
"...I must’ve been a promotional offer with a phone recharge."
"Overthinking it, you were a raffle prize."
"..."
Feeling utterly slighted by his own mother, Ji Yebai silently picked up a bowl and cooled the porridge, spooning it to Ning Xixi.
Ning Xixi was holding the iPad, looking at the trending Weibo post Ji’s mom ntioned.
