Chapter 308: Once The Group of Bullies Speak, Hate Will Be Directed (1)
Xiang Yi didn’t say anything, but her nose felt a little sore.
Resting her forehead against Shi Sui’s shoulder, she could sense the warmness of his body that was radiating toward her continuously.
Shi Sui said softly, “I have a bad sense of hearing.”
Others may not understand what Shi Sui meant, but Xiang Yi understood it immediately.
He repeated what she said again.
She said in a nasally voice, “I’m not going to cry.”
‘She’s probably cried too often as a child so she can’t bring herself to cry now.’
Her first reaction to being sad was not to shed tears but to endure the misery.
Shi Sui chuckled and said, “Yes, Xiang Yi is a strong girl to begin with.”
He still remembered the way the fair and delicate Xiang Yi would chase away the detestable elders while crying her heart out when she was a child.
At that time, Xiang Li hugged her while Xiang Qi spat at those elders and Xiang Yu cursed at them.
Xiang Chen was even harsher toward them.
He picked up a brick and stood at the side sternly with a cold and hostile expression on his face, resembling the King of Hell. He was clearly threatening to get physical with them.
Regardless of the arguments and little fights they had at home, they would forever stay united when facing outsiders.
After trying to get a grip on her emotions for a while, Xiang Yi gradually calmed down.
She realized in hindsight that Shi Sui… had also seen that “Xiang Yi”.
When she had transmigrated back to her body, she was lying on the bed in his room…
Shi Sui did not mention that matter again. Xiang Yi thought he didn’t mind it, but after giving it some thought, she wondered if he had discovered something amiss.
“You… I… We…” Xiang Yi licked her cherry-like lips and raised her delicate face. She asked, “Uh, nothing happened between us at the hot spring lodge the other time, right?”
Shi Sui raised an eyebrow, his gaze deep and enigmatic. “Do you think something should have happened between us?”
“…”
‘I don’t know the answer to that.’
Feeling a little awkward, Xiang Yi said, “Did I…violate you at that time?”
Shi Sui asked with a smirk, “Violate?”
Xiang Yi was chagrined because she had blurted those words almost without any hesitation. ‘It’s all Ah Nan’s fault for using such evil words that I clearly still remember to this day.’
“Ahem, I’ll rephrase my question. At that time, did I do anything to you that isn’t in line with any core socialist values?”
Xiang Yi was extremely righteous and, if not for her slightly flushed earlobes, she would have seemed rather composed at first glance.
Shi Sui stayed silent for a moment, making Xiang Yi tense up uncontrollably and putting her on edge. Only then did he drawl, “You fell asleep as soon as you entered the room.”
There was a slip-up with the key cards to the room that night. “Xiang Yi” initially wanted to unlock the door to the room of another young hunk but had accidentally ended up in Shi Sui’s room.
The way that “Xiang Yi” looked at him was really repulsive.
However, she fainted soon after. Shi Sui originally thought that she was just acting. He was ready to smoke a cigarette and ask Xiang Feng to come over to take her away, but she woke up again shortly.
Her face was unchanged, but the look in her eyes was different.
Shi Sui knew that she was no longer the same person.
Xiang Yi was relieved to hear his words.
However, seeing how calm he was, Xiang Yi had a feeling that he knew something and was about to ask him about it, but there was a sudden banging on the door.
Thump-thump…
The person who spoke had a familiar accent and silly tone, “Little Xiang Yi, open the door! I know you’re in there! Look what you’ve done! As your uncle, I must teach you a lesson today!”
It was Xiang Feng, who had rushed over after catching wind of the news.
He almost passed out in exasperation when he saw the hot search list.
Creak——
The door was opened.
Xiang Feng was just about to criticize her with the authoritative attitude of an elder, but he soon saw the reddened corners of her eyes and pitiful look of uneasiness.
Xiang Feng cleared his throat and said, “Ahem, actually, I’ve thought about it. It’s not that big of a deal.”
