Xia Zhibai turned around and paused. Did he notice it?
Her mind raced, and she thought of something. She turned her head and looked at him calmly, saying, "I've checked it out. It doesn't look like he's been entangled by anything."
Xia Wenkang was stunned. His younger sister said no. Could it be that he was overthinking it?
"Don't you understand why he went to the imperial capital to ask the Mo family to break off the engagement?" Xia Zhibai seemed to see through his thoughts.
Without waiting for his reply, she sighed and said, "Have you ever thought that maybe Mr. Xia doesn't want to develop in the imperial capital, so he cut off his ties with the Mo family."
This is the best explanation Xia Zhibai could think of.
Xia Wenkang felt a pang of worry when he heard this. It seemed that his father was consolidating funds and had slowed down the idea of expanding outwards in the past two days.
We took the initiative to contact some major customers. Although we did not say what the future direction would be, we also did not indicate that we would renew the contract in the future.
Xia Zhibai looked at him in silence and knew that he had heard it.
"It might not be a peaceful time these days. Your body has just been through such a great ordeal. If you can stay at home, you should just work from home. The sun is shining brightly now. Why don't you bask in the sun here?"
Xia Zhibai did not remove the barrier, but left Xia Wenkang on the balcony and let him sit in the hanging basket to rest.
"Daughter, are you okay?"
"Zhibai, has that dirty thing been driven away?"
"Sister, are you and brother okay?"
When the three people from the Xia family saw her coming downstairs, they immediately sat up from the living room and walked towards her quickly.
Xia Rouxin even asked Xia Wenkang, but he did not follow her downstairs.
"He's a little tired, so I let him bask in the sun to get rid of the bad luck."
In fact, it is the midday when the sun is at its most vigorous. It is good for Xia Wenkang to get more sun exposure.
After hearing what Xia Zhibai said, the three members of the Xia family breathed a sigh of relief.
"Daughter, the food is ready. Are you hungry? How about I ask Aunt Zhang to serve the food first?"
Xia Zhibai was indeed hungry. Facing Xia's mother's concerned look, he smiled and nodded: "I am indeed a little hungry."
"Okay then, ask Aunt Zhang to serve the food, and I'll take it to Wenkang."
I have to say that Xia's mother really loves them. She treats both her and Xia Wenkang equally.
Father Xia originally wanted to say that he would go and see it off, but Mother Xia stopped him.
"You eat with your two daughters first, I'll take them there."
So after Xia's mother brought the food down, Xia Zhibai started eating.
Seeing her being so particular, Xia's mother's eyes were sore and she sobbed, "Zhibai, I have made you suffer over the years."
As she spoke, she picked up several more pieces of braised pork for Xia Zhibai, indicating that she should eat more.
Looking at the small bowls that were almost piled up in front of her, Xia Zhibai felt warm in her heart. She used to be used to living alone, and when she came here, she also tried to keep a distance from others.
But in front of Xia's mother, she seemed unable to pretend.
"Sister, this braised pork was cooked by mom herself, you must eat two more pieces." Xia Rouxin put down her chopsticks and looked at her gently, as if she would be sorry for her mother if she didn't finish it.
The original owner was 1.7 meters tall and very thin.
Even though she came and ate a lot, she was still very thin.
The skin is a healthy wheat color, not white and tender.
At first glance, this would give the impression that she is malnourished.
"Yes, Zhibai, I saw that you are still doing live broadcasts. Is that company withholding your fees? Do you want dad to help you?"
Xia's father also felt that Xia Zhibai was too thin. He had also watched Xia Zhibai's live broadcast and saw that she received gifts from fans all the time. His daughter should not be without money to eat.
When he thought about the past, he felt sad, and there was a rare trace of worry and self-blame on his face.
Xia Zhibai glanced at Xia Rouxin, then comforted the sobbing Xia's mother: "Auntie, I didn't have a hard life before. The abbot was very kind to me and never treated me badly with food. Otherwise, I wouldn't have grown so tall."
As she spoke, she pointed to the top of her head with a satisfied smile on her face.
After seeing her comparison, Xia Rouxin couldn't keep the fake smile on her face anymore.
Height is Xia Rouxin's weakness. She is not tall and is petite.
Xia's mother was very worried about this and invited a nutritionist from abroad to prepare nutritious meals for her. However, after two years, the meals were of no use, so she gave up.
She was furious in her heart, but her face showed a cute and envious smile: "If I were as tall as my sister, I would be able to endure a little more hardship."
"Well, I have to thank Sister Rouxin for living a good life for me and letting me grow so tall." Xia Zhibai had a sincere smile on his face, as if he was really thanking her.
Are you pretending to be a green tea in front of her?
Xia Zhibai raised his eyelids and glanced at her lightly. She looked petite, delicate and lovely, with big eyes full of innocence, which made people feel distressed.
But her words were like a thorn that pierced Xia's mother's heart, making her feel uncomfortable all over.
Xia Rouxin couldn't help but shudder, and carefully raised her eyes to look at her mother, tears filling her eyes. She whispered in self-blame: "I didn't mean to steal my sister's identity, I, I..."
"Okay, eat. You are all daughters of my Xia family. There is no need to fight for your food." Father Xia couldn't bear to see his adopted daughter and biological daughter being wronged, so he comforted them gently without any airs of an elder.
Xia Zhibai was a little surprised by his behavior.
Father Xia seemed to be trying to mediate, but in fact he was still helping Xia Rouxin.
As the daughter of the Xia family, she has been away from the Xia family since she was a child.
Sure enough, Mother Xia frowned slightly when she heard this. She patted Father Xia's arm and signaled him to look at Xia Zhibai with her eyes. Xia Zhibai didn't say anything, but there was something strange on his face.
