Xia Weiwei angrily left.
Xia Yangyang lay on her bed, her heart in agony.
She had no idea what to do next.
The next day was the weekend.
Xia Yangyang didn’t need to go to school.
She slept in until the afternoon sun was high in the sky.
Besides having lunch, Xia Yangyang stayed in her room all day and didn’t go out.
In the evening, there was a knock on the door.
Xia Yangyang thought it was Nanny Yang calling her for dinner.
Unexpectedly, it was Xia Weiwei standing at the door.
Xia Weiwei looked to be in good spirits, a broad smile on her face: “Sister, let’s go to the dining room for dinner. Mom cooked herself today, everything is your favourite.”
Xia Yangyang looked at Xia Weiwei and furrowed her brows.
Xia Weiwei was never this polite when talking to her.
And her attitude now seemed suspicious.
Moreover, Xia Weiwei looked different today, wearing a white dress.
Her usually curly hair was now straight and long, and the usually heavily made-up Xia Weiwei had only light make-up on, yet she looked exquisitely beautiful.
She seemed to be a completely different person compared to usual.
Xia Yangyang furrowed her brows, simply said, “I know.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t really want to have dinner.
But tonight seemed to be unusual.
Xia Weiwei cheerfully said: “Hurry up and get down, we are all waiting for you.”
Xia Weiwei left the room.
Xia Yangyang was still in her pajamas, she changed randomly into clothes before heading downstairs.
But as she entered the dining room, seeing the people inside, Xia Yangyang was taken aback for a moment.
At this moment, the man seated at the dining table, who could it be but Gu Qichen?
Gu Qichen was conversing with Xia Liangdong, who was all smiles.
And Xia Weiwei was sitting beside Gu Qichen, occasionally chiming in.
She kept calling him “brother-in-law.”
Xia Weiwei was the first to notice that Xia Yangyang had come in.
She got up and went to her, affectionately taking her arm: “Sister, you finally came down. Brother-in-law has been here for a while.”
Xia Weiwei was smiling, but Xia Yangyang saw a glint in her eye.
No wonder Xia Weiwei had been so kind a moment ago, no wonder she was dressed so plainly today.
Obviously it was because of Gu Qichen.
But why was Gu Qichen here?
Xia Yangyang was pulled toward the table by Xia Weiwei.
Xia Liangdong with a slightly reproachful tone said, “Yangyang, you should have told us earlier when Ah Chen was coming.”
Xia Weiwei immediately broke in: “Brother-in-law, sister said you were on a business trip in Japan, when did you get back?”
Xia Yangyang knew Xia Weiwei would bring this up.
But she didn’t feel guilty, she just calmly looked at the man in front of her.
Gu Qichen naturally replied, “I just got back from Japan, and came here as soon as I got off the plane.”
Xia Weiwei’s expression froze for a moment.
He clearly hadn’t gone on a business trip to Japan, but he just casually went along with the story.
Xia Weiwei said this to expose that Xia Yangyang was lying.
But Gu Qichen not only did not expose the lie, he even helped to cover it up.
Xia Weiwei’s fingers clenched tightly.
Liu Ruyan came out of the kitchen, all smiles: “Yangyang, it’s your fault for not telling me earlier. I would have prepared more dishes, today was rushed and we can only have ordinary home cooking.”
She said it was home cooking, but the table was full of dishes.
Xia Yangyang spoke offhandedly, “He is not some national leader, you treat him as a VIP. Don’t you consider him a part of the family?”
