Sister complex!
That was the description Nangong Yi blurted out to Shan Jinxi. At the time, in order to make Shan Jinxi face reality, he childishly took out Su Xiaoxiao's ID card.
"Look carefully at my wife's name. It's on her ID card, household registration book, and our marriage certificate!"
But to everyone's surprise, Shan Jinxi's answer was even more naive.
She said, "Of course I know who your wife is, and I'm not stupid enough to mistake her for my sister. Besides, my sister doesn't even know you!"
This was the first time Su Xiaoxiao had discovered this peculiar side of them. At that time, Nangong Yi only gained a slight advantage because Shan Jinxi didn't know her true identity.
If she hadn't cleverly extended a small hand to her jealous husband, they probably wouldn't have been able to have this meal.
At that moment, Su Xiaoxiao secretly decided that she would never appear at the dinner table with the two of them again.
...
"President Shan, my husband isn't here today, so please consider this my way of apologizing to you again for what happened the other day."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded without objection. She also noticed that after Xi Yuankai left the ward, he just carefully guarded the door and did not leave immediately.
“Young Madam, I must thank Nangong Yi for his help this time. He said that he only took on this ‘difficult task’ because you insisted. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to you on behalf of my sister.”
"It's alright, you don't need to be so polite. I've also taken advantage of Miss quite a bit, so let's just consider it a return of favors."
Su Xiaoxiao really didn't want Shan Jinxi to call her that, but she was also afraid that if she changed her way of addressing him, she would unconsciously call him "Brother Jin".
It was as if only by addressing each other in such an unfamiliar way could she remember her current identity.
The two ate quietly. Shan Jinxi mostly served her food, but every time she politely said "thank you," Shan Jinxi's chopsticks would pause for a second.
Not long after the meal, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived at the hospital, but Shan Jinxi did not want to see him.
Su Xiaoxiao simply sat quietly in the ward, listening intently to the roaring outside.
The person who came was her father, Su Taihong.
Yesterday, before the matter involving Lin Wanhui and Su Xiaoyue had completely subsided, news also swept in that 'Su Taihong conspired with a fortune teller and feng shui master to destroy evidence in order to cover up the truth of his wife and daughter's murder.'
Su Xiaoxiao wasn't sure if the truth was as he had fabricated, but it was a responsibility he had to bear as a father after being fooled.
"President Shan, are you sure you're okay not to go out?"
As Su Xiaoxiao listened to her father's shouts and curses outside, her worry became more and more apparent when she turned her gaze to her grandfather.
Dan Jinxi merely gave a cold laugh. After slowly getting up, he calmly straightened his perfectly wrinkle-free coat.
But as he turned to leave, Su Xiaoxiao saw the terrifying killing intent lurking in his eyes.
"Shan Jinxi, get out here right now!"
Su Taihong was originally trying to resolve the crisis with his wife and daughter at home, but he never expected that his 'scandal' would suddenly make headlines in major media outlets.
Moreover, the news spread even faster than yesterday's news.
The family of three knew very well who the culprit was, but in order to have a calm talk with Shan Jinxi, Su Taihong carefully avoided the eyes of the media reporters and rushed to the hospital after confirming that Shan Jinxi was not at the company.
But before he could even get close to the ward, he was stopped in the corridor by Shan Jinxi's bodyguard.
