"Just like a study partner, let the beautiful sister be my study partner, what do you think?"

Han Ting didn't say anything, but his expression clearly showed his disagreement.

Xinyue's expression turned distressed: "Brother, if you think that beautiful sister is not a good person, then why don't you meet with me, or investigate her first?"

"I promise, if you have a beautiful sister as my companion, I will never skip class when the teacher comes to teach!"

Han Ting knocked her head. "Hasn't experience taught you that beauties are all thorny? The more beautiful, the more poisonous!"

"Besides, who knows if it will be another ugly monster wearing human skin?"

Upon hearing this, Xinyue loudly retorted, "Sister Meiren is not like that. I think she is really wonderful. She lives her true self and doesn't care about what others think. She says whatever she wants."

Han Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze became even colder: "That means the other party is deliberately trying to attract your attention, which means he has other intentions."

Xinyue was dissatisfied: "Brother, why do you always think the worst of people? You always use the greatest malice to speculate on others. If you look carefully, you will find that there are actually many good people."

Han Ting: "Alright, stop thinking about those nonsense and put your thoughts aside. Anyway, you are not allowed to bring any bad people into the house."

"Brother!" Xinyue stomped her feet at his back! !

"If I don't bring my beautiful sister back and support her, Xu Jingwan's white glutinous rice balls with black sesame fillings will bully my beautiful sister to death."

"The Xu family is the same. Not a single one of them is a good person. My beautiful sister may have a bad temper, but she is also isolated and helpless."

"If I show up even slightly, I think people will be willing to do nothing for my sake."

"Brother, will you just let me out? My beautiful sister has come to the capital alone. How can she survive without someone to support her?"

"And judging from what happened yesterday, I'm afraid that once the door to the Shangshu Mansion is closed, my beautiful sister will be bullied."

"After all, Minister Xu is so concerned about his reputation and likes to put on airs. After what happened to the beautiful sister yesterday, there's no way he'll have a good time back home."

Xinyue became more and more worried as she spoke, and didn't notice that her brother had stopped and was listening to her seriously.

"Go on, what happened yesterday?"

Xinyue thought the person had already walked out the door, but she didn't expect him to suddenly turn back and was shocked.

"Brother, you also feel pity for the beautiful sister, right?" Xinyue thought her brother had changed his mind, and her tone became a little happy.

"Tell me what happened yesterday, I'll think about it."

Xinyue became excited and told every word that happened in Shangshu Mansion yesterday.

Han Ting's eyes gradually became doting and gentle, with a smile between his eyebrows.

Thinking of the reason why she appeared in the ancestral hall yesterday, his eyes became fierce.

After leaving in the morning, he sent two secret guards to protect her, but that was not done openly, for fear that Minister Xu would make things difficult for her.

Thinking of this, Han Ting looked at his sister and said, "Forget it, since you don't want to go to class today, just take a day off."

"Your mind is wandering off anyway, so you can't concentrate on the lecture."

Xinyue jumped up happily: "Thank you, brother. I'm leaving now."

Afraid that her brother would suddenly change his mind, Xinyue ran away very fast.

In the afternoon, Xu Jingwan became more and more angry the more she thought about it. She was a young lady, but she was actually tricked by a man who came back from the countryside.

In order to get back at her, she took the banknote she got yesterday and deliberately ran into Xu Jinyi.

Xiufen followed and saw Xu Jinyi feeding the fish on the bridge in the garden from afar.

Xu Jingwan winked at Xiufen, then walked towards the bridge with a happy look on her face.

"Miss, Madam is so good to you. How many families can get five thousand taels of pocket money all of a sudden? When Madam gave it to you, she didn't even blink an eye. It shows how much she loves you."

"Xiu Fen, don't talk nonsense. Now that my sister is back, she must be my favorite. Don't say such things in the future."

Xu Jingwan pretended to scold, but the ten silver bills in her hand were clearly visible.

"Although the eldest lady has returned, she is not raised by the Madam after all. She is not as close to you as the young lady. The Madam must like you the most."

"Look at this banknote. The young lady doesn't get this kind of treatment."

Xu Jingwan was so delighted that she deliberately glanced at Xu Jinyi before she said in surprise, "Sister, are you feeding the fish?"

Then she walked to Xu Jinyi in a hypocritical manner: "Sister, don't mind me. I, a maid, can't speak. You are definitely the one that mother loves the most."

"I also know that my sister has suffered for more than ten years outside, and she feels wronged and blames and hates me, but Wanwan really has no intention of competing with my sister."

"I can apologize to you for what my biological parents did to you, but it wasn't my fault after all. Sister, can we get along well in the future?"

"Mom and Dad will definitely be happy to see us being as close as sisters." Xu Jingwan grabbed Xu Jinyi's wrist and said.

Xu Jinyi curled the corners of his lips and glanced at the water flowing under the bridge, realizing that she was trying to play the same trick as in her previous life again.

Glancing at the figure not far away, Xu Jinyi smiled. "Xu Jingwan, do you know what you look like now? Like a clown. How was it? Did you sleep well last night? Did you dream that everything you wanted to hold on to was taken away by me?"

Xu Jingwan's face froze as she thought of last night's dream. She didn't understand why she knew that.

"Sister, what are you talking about?" Xu Jingwan smiled awkwardly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You know me. I can't stand seeing those disgusting people jumping around in front of me. If you see me next time, you'd better hide away. Otherwise, I don't mind making your dream come true."

Xu Jingwan suddenly felt wronged: "Sister, I really didn't want to snatch it from you. Now that I can stay and serve my parents to repay their kindness in raising me, I am already very grateful. I will never snatch it from you."

"Really? Then why are you showing off the banknotes in front of me?"

Xu Jingwan's eyes were filled with tears. She quickly put away the banknotes and moved closer to Xu Jinyi: "No, sister, I'm not showing off, I..."

Xu Jinyi's eyes flashed: "Really? Aren't you deliberately trying to make me realize my status and deliberately playing the role of family affection in front of me?"

Xu Jingwan lowered her voice and regained her true nature: "Yes, I did it on purpose, Xu Jinyi, you see clearly how much your parents hate and despise you."

"In that case, why don't you leave? If you insist on staying and humiliating yourself, then you can't blame me."

Xu Jinyi sneered, "What? You're not pretending anymore? You'll know later if you're bringing shame upon yourself."

"Besides, I find it hilarious to watch you acting like you hate me to death but can't do anything to me."

"Where can I find such fun? Is that right?"

"Xu Jingwan, the show is about to begin, are you ready?"
