As soon as he saw her, Jiang Zhiyi’s brows furrowed again, his expression heavy with gloom as he coldly said to her, "I’m not hungry, please leave!"
"Do you really hate that much?" Xu Chenxi bit her lip tightly, her eyes brimming with a hint of moisture, a look of deep sadness on her face.
Jiang Zhiyi turned his back to her and closed his eyes without speaking.
With reddened eyes, Xu Chenxi said, "I know I shouldn’t have taken pictures with your watch, but I really didn’t an to. I didn’t know Sister Yiyi would get so angry. Brother Yi, we are family after all. Are you really planning to ignore forever over this?"
"Enough!" Jiang Zhiyi interrupted her. Speaking of these things now was aningless.
He looked at the pale-faced Xu Chenxi, his voice hoarse from the high fever, "The matter is over, there’s no need to bring it up again."
In fact, his relationship with Xu Chenxi had been alright before, although not as close as real siblings. But for the sake of his father’s feelings, they usually got along harmoniously.
He was also aware that the main issue between him and that girl was on his own part.
Xu Chenxi pursed her lips but still refused to leave. "If it’s really because of this, can I go apologize to Sister Yiyi in person?"
"There’s no need," Jiang Zhiyi said. "I want to rest now, please go out."
With her eyes still reddened, Xu Chenxi walked out of the room. By the ti she reached the door, the moisture in her eyes had already disappeared. Looking up, she saw Shen Weiyi walking into the villa from outside.
Shen Weiyi had been distracted ever since going out to sea, and had returned earlier than planned after a brief stay on the island.
"Sister Yiyi," Xu Chenxi greeted her when she saw her.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Weiyi’s face turned cold instantly upon seeing her.
Xu Chenxi gave her a smile, "My brother is sick, I ca to look after him. After all, we are family."
Shen Weiyi glanced at Jiang Zhiyi’s room behind her and said, "I can’t tell that you siblings have such deep affection for each other. You have no place to sleep, so he gave his room to you, and when he’s sick, you never leave his side."
"Yes, after all, as family, we should look after each other when we are outside!" Xu Chenxi spoke cheerfully.
"Then I wish for your family to always be as loving and close-knit as ever."
Shen Weiyi walked past her and prepared to go upstairs. Behind her, Xu Chenxi’s voice ca once again, "Sister Yiyi, I know you’re still upset with my brother about the watch incident, but it really has nothing to do with him. It was all my fault; I took his watch to take pictures without telling him, and he knew nothing about it. Can you please not bla him anymore?" Xu Chenxi’s voice suddenly beca submissive, as if she had beco a different person altogether in her presence, "He really likes you a lot. Can you please stop being angry with him over this? If it’s because you dislike , I can just move out of the Jiang Family."
"I know. I’m just living under soone else’s roof, not pleasing anyone. But I truly didn’t an to do it. If it’s because of that you two break up, Brother Yi would never forgive for the rest of his life. I don’t want to be the criminal between the two of you."
"Are you done?"
Shen Weiyi looked at her with cold eyes, sarcastically saying, "It’s truly a pity you’re not acting!" She then turned around and went back to her room without giving the other any chance to retort.
Behind her, a flash of annoyance crossed Xu Chenxi’s eyes, but she soon curved her lips into a smile again.
