Xia Chuyi thought to herself, "She should check the almanac, is today a day to offend villains?"
Glancing casually at Xia Lan, Xia Chuyi really didn't want to deal with Xia Lan and stepped forward, ready to walk away.
"Chuyi!" Xia Lan saw this and quickly came forward, anxiously saying to her, "Chuyi, don't go yet, listen to me!"
"I know I was wrong about the past!"
"But after all, we are sisters, here in the Capital City, we have no other relatives, we should support each other!"
Xia Lan, fearing that Xia Chuyi would get impatient listening to her, spoke very fast.
She followed beside Xia Chuyi, and quickly made her intentions clear in a few words.
After finishing, she looked at Xia Chuyi with a face full of appeasement.
Honestly, Xia Chuyi had to admit, Xia Lan's tactic was quite effective.
At least, whether she liked it or not, she heard every word Xia Lan said.
Xia Chuyi stopped, frowning, looking Xia Lan up and down.
After looking over Xia Lan, her frown deepened.
Honestly, today's Xia Lan was a bit different—throughout their lives, she had never seen Xia Lan show such a "sincere" face.
"Sincere" in the sense that the appeasement in Xia Lan's eyes was truly genuine, without any discount, completely different from before.
In the past, before they had completely fallen out, Xia Lan also often pretended to be good and charming, but that "goodness" and "charm" were mixed with disdain, slightly deceptive.
But now, Xia Lan's "appeasement" was visibly hugely "sincere."
"Xia Lan, what trick are you trying to play now?" Xia Chuyi didn't bother to beat around the bush and directly asked Xia Lan.
Now, Xia Lan's ability to control her expressions had improved much more than before.
She saw that the smile on Xia Lan's face hadn't changed at all.
"Chuyi, what are you talking about? What tricks?" Xia Lan spoke softly with a smile, "I truly feel that we sisters should support each other, watch over each other…"

Support each other? Watch over each other?
Xia Lan really had the nerve to say that.
Seeing that Xia Chuyi still hadn't reacted much, Xia Lan then changed her expression.
"Chuyi, I was wrong in the past…" Xia Lan's smile gradually faded away, turning into an utterly remorseful expression, her eyes slowly reddening, she said, "I hate myself, I blame myself, I know all that…"
"But nobody is perfect, right?" Xia Lan looked at Xia Chuyi with incredibly sincere eyes, saying, "Chuyi, after all, we are sisters!"
"You know the situation of the Xia family."
"Preferring boys over girls, not taking girls seriously…" Xia Lan shed two lines of clear tears, continuing, "I too was driven to desperation!"
After speaking, Xia Lan lowered her head, quietly sobbing.
Xia Lan's appearance now drew the continuous attention of the people around.
However, Xia Chuyi wasn't new to being watched by others; she didn't care at all and coldly watched Xia Lan's performance, thinking to herself: Xia Lan's acting skills have really reached perfection.
Hmm, it could even be said to have reached the ultimate realm.
However, the spectator had already woken up, no matter how skillful the actor, their whole body was full of flaws.
The reason Xia Chuyi was just watching Xia Lan's performance without speaking was that she was analyzing: Why would Xia Lan suddenly do this?
She knew that Xia Lan was a person who wouldn't act without a purpose.
Xia Lan suddenly coming to appease her must definitely have an ulterior motive.
