“I’ve already told mum, dad, and our sisters that you’re thinking of finding yourself a girlfriend,” said Huo Sanyan. “They really liked the idea and are probably looking for suitable candidates. If they do find one, they might set up a date–”
When did I even said that?
“I don’t need it!” Huo Yunshen shouted, stopping his sister from finishing her sentence. He’d finally lost his temper and pushed Huo Sanyan out of his house. He slammed the door and took a deep breath.
This family… he sighed. Each and every one of them is so persistent. Can’t they at least give me a few days to live in quiet?
After Huo Sanyan had left, Huo Yunshen took out his phone and called Xu Xiyan to tell her that it was all right for her to come out.
Xu Xiyan went to the living room and looked around. “She left?”
“Yes,” Huo Yunshen said with a look of stress on his face.
“Your sister is quite nice. She cares a lot about you.” Xu Xiyan had heard everything Huo Yunshen and Huo Sanyan were talking about.
“You’d understand my feelings if you had three sisters all like that.” All three of his sisters were worried about him, bombarding him with concern.
“I’m actually jealous of you for having such good sister,” Xu Xiyan said. The only sister she had was her half-sister from the same father, and all she did was make her life harder.
“Isn’t Xu Xinrou your sister? She’s an A-list celebrity now. I heard that you two are very close, and that you might be able to see more of each other since she’s the second female lead in ‘Red Sleeved Beauty.'”
Oh my god!
Which idiot said that I’m close with Xu Xinrou?
“Xu Xinrou and I had a falling out. Please don’t speak of her in front of me again.” Xu Xiyan was depressed by the thought of it.
“I’m sorry, did I say something I shouldn’t have?” Huo Yunshen grew worried.
Xu Jinshan was the one who told Huo Yunshen that the two sisters were very close. But Xu Xiyan had just told him they weren’t. He began to wonder what could have happened between them.
Is it because Xu Xinrou was already in the spotlight and Xu Xiyan wasn’t?
“No, it’s not your fault,” Xu Xiyan smiled. “But I should get going.”
Just as Xu Xiyan walked passed Huo Yunshen, he grabbed her hand and said, “Jing Xi, don’t go.”
Xu Xiyan looked at her hand and then looked at him, filled with questions.
Huo Yunshen realized that what he did was too sudden and quickly released her hand. “My third sis used to be an entertainment reporter,” he quickly explained. “I bet she’s still waiting outside.”
Entertainment reporter… Does that mean she used to be a paparazzi… What a sister he has!
Xu Xiyan nodded and asked, “Then what should we do?”
Huo Yunshen eyes shone with a bright idea and said, “Why don’t you stay over for one night?”
Xu Xiyan stared at his bright eyes for a moment, uncertain of his intention and replied, “Alright.”
“…” Oh yeah!
He’d finally found a reason for her to stay, all thanks to Huo Sanyan.
Xu Xiyan stayed in the guestroom that she used to stay in. When she woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, she didn’t even notice that she’d entered the wrong room, and she went straight back to sleep.
