Xia An 'an was stunned. Why did she feel that Si Lijue was angry?
She suddenly felt a little fluke. Was Si Lijue worried about her injury? But just as she was thinking that, one of the maids sneered and said, "Xia Anan, I know you're eager to show off, but you don't have to add so much drama for yourself. Miss He just said that she wanted to eat your cooking when she had the chance. You ran to the kitchen with an injured hand, did you want to say that?
Are you trying to say that Miss He is oppressing you and tormenting you despite your injury? "
Xia An 'an was stunned when she heard that.
"I …"
He Nianchu suddenly stood up and apologized to Xia An 'an, "An, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect you to cook tonight. Is your hand okay? I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. "
Xia An 'an met He Nianchu's apologetic eyes. She looked very innocent and pitiful. She was beautiful to begin with, and when she was wronged, she immediately attracted pity. At least, Xia An' an couldn't bear to be angry at He Nianchu's pitiful appearance.
At that time, it wasn't He Nianchu who forced her to cook, but the two maids beside her were making a fuss and gossiping. As long as she was a little stubborn, she would have done it.
Xia An 'an admitted that she was a little angry. If they wanted to eat, then cook. Anyway, her hand wouldn't die from the pain.
But now, she was the one who had to cook.
Once the roles were reversed, the person responsible was also changed.
Now that she was making a fuss, it was to prevent her from complaining to Si Lijue, so she had to act first, right?
Xia An 'an didn't understand why He Nianchu was so against her. Her relationship with Si Lijue was already so strained. She was also kicked out of the equation. Why was he still making things difficult for her? Did he have to force her to leave the Si family?
"An 'an, please forgive me."
He Nianchu had walked up to Xia An 'an. Tears were rolling in her eyes. She looked pitiful.
Xia An 'an could only play by ear. "It's okay. My hand doesn't hurt that much. Cooking isn't a big deal. It's not as serious as you think. You don't have to take it to heart."
He Nianchu smiled. "Really?"
"Yes."
"That's great. I was really worried that your hand injury would worsen because of my desire for food. If that happened, I would be guilty."
Xia An smiled faintly, then said to the silent Si Lijue, "Sir, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave.."
After that, he turned to leave.
Si Lijue looked at Xia Anan's departing figure and an unknown emotion flashed across his eyes.
He Nianchu secretly bit his lip.
... that's. She's making Si Lijue hate He Nianchu even more,'s, her's's.....'s's, she didn't expect. She didn't tell him the truth...... her's to make '' ''s... that's to.....
This woman was much smarter than she thought.
Although He Nianchu felt it was a pity that her plan didn't work tonight, it didn't matter. She was going to stay here for a long time. She had to get rid of this Xia An 'an!
Late at night.
Xia An 'an tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Her hand hurt badly. The doctor told her not to use too much strength, but how could she not use strength when cooking? She thought it would be fine for a short while. Who knew she would suffer the consequences of her own actions?
She pressed her aching arm. She couldn't sleep. The room was stuffy. It was hard to breathe.
Xia An 'an got out of bed. She wanted to go outside for some fresh air.
During this period of time, the people in the villa were not very friendly to her. Xia Anan did not like to go out and listen to those people's sarcasm, but it was not realistic to hide in the house all day long, so if she felt bored during this period of time, she would go out at night and stroll around the small garden to breathe in the fresh air.
It was late at night and there weren't many people around. She didn't have to endure those people's gossip.
Xia An 'an went to the garden as usual. She thought she was alone, but Si Lijue was in the garden too. She was shocked and quickly turned around, hoping that he didn't see her.
However, she had only taken a few steps when Si Lijue's voice came from behind her.
"Am I an evil spirit? Running away when you see me? "
Xia An 'an froze. She could only slowly turn around. She lowered her head and greeted Si Lijue. "Sir, it's so late. Why aren't you sleeping?"
"I can't sleep."
Xia An 'an was surprised that Si Lijue actually talked to her. She could only follow the topic. "Is there something bothering you?"
"There is something bothering me."
Si Lijue looked at Xia An 'an meaningfully and said, "Some people always make me worry. I'm really annoyed."
Xia An 'an's scalp went numb. He wasn't talking about her, was he?
The wind started to blow. The gentle night breeze blew past, causing the flowers to sway. Xia Anan's long hair that hung loosely behind her back and the corner of her light muslin dress fluttered. Fortunately, she had a shawl draped over her shoulders, so she didn't feel very cold. She looked up and realized that Si Lijue was much less than her. He was only wearing a thin dark blue shirt.
The corner of his shirt fluttered in the wind, as if it was one with the darkness.
Xia An 'an said out of habit, "It's late. You'll catch a cold if you stay out for too long."
Si Lijue glanced at her and said, "Aren't you going to get me some clothes?"
Xia An 'an laughed dryly. "It's so late. Let's go back to the house."
"I just want to stay outside."
Si Lijue's stubbornness was a headache.
Xia An 'an thought about it. She took off her shawl and handed it to Si Lijue. She said seriously, "If you don't mind, you can wear this first."
Si Lijue looked at the shawl and raised his head slightly. He said arrogantly, "I'm a man. Do you think I'll wear this? And it's so tattered. "
Xia An 'an thought about it and agreed. Why would a CEO like him use something like this?
She smiled awkwardly. "You're right. I only bought some cheap stuff. It's not good enough for you …"
She was about to withdraw her hand when Si Lijue suddenly took the shawl and put it on himself.
Xia An 'an was stunned.
Si Lijue said, "You don't have to feel inferior because of this. I grew up in the slums before I was 15. I've suffered all kinds of hardships." This was the first time Si Lijue had talked about his past to Xia An 'an. In the past, he never mentioned these things. Xia An' an wasn't sure how Si Lijue felt about living with his adoptive mother. Now that he had brought it up, she couldn't help but ask, "Sir, were you happy in the slums?
？”
Xia Anan really wanted to know if Si Lijue had ever been happy living with his adoptive mother. This was very important to his adoptive mother.
Si Lijue didn't expect someone to ask such a stupid question. Normal people wouldn't be happy living in the slums.
But he noticed that Xia An 'an's expression was serious. It seemed like he cared a lot.
Si Lijue's eyes flashed with surprise. He looked down as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said, "I …"
"Eh? Ah Jue, An 'an. You're here too. What a coincidence! "
