Chapter 165 Brother's Little Rabbit
Gao Min jumped back two steps in fright, staring warily at the box in the assistant's hand.
"Alive...alive?"
The assistant looked embarrassed: "It's a living creature, but it's not dangerous."
A living creature? Ye Wanxi's expression changed slightly: "Quickly open the box."
Without thinking much, the assistant hurriedly opened the box after hearing what she said.
The next second, a white ball popped out of the box and plunged into the fiery red rose.
Then, it shook off its fur, which was stained red by the flower juice, and nimbly rushed to the top of the rose. After looking down at everyone with arrogance, it howled at Ye Wanxi.
"Ah, little bunny!" Sisi, who had been staring intently at the large bouquet of roses in Ye Wanxi's hand, got excited when she saw the little bunny and her sweet, childlike voice came out.
Ye Wanxi was stunned for a moment when she saw the little rabbit jump up. After realizing what was happening, she quickly handed the flowers to Gao Min and lifted the rabbit off.
"It really is you, Little Yuanyuan. Your master actually sent you here."
As soon as the little rabbit was in Ye Wanxi's hands, it immediately rubbed against her palm obediently before straightening its little body and starting to gurgle and complain.
How could its owner not be willing to part with it? Before, it had complained that it was useless and dumped it on the owner of that fat rabbit, causing it to live like a rat in the street for several days, hiding here and there, afraid that the fat rabbit would find it and crush it with a thousand pounds.
That's not all; the heartless owner even put it in a dark gift box.
Although it was happy to be brought to see its little owner, this does not erase the despicable behavior of the person who committed the crime.
The little rabbit tearfully recounted the unfair treatment it had suffered during this time, a story that truly moved anyone who heard it to tears.
Unfortunately, the human and the rabbit couldn't communicate.
Ye Wanxi listened for a long time but couldn't figure it out. She thought the little rabbit was expressing its longing for her.
"You missed me? I missed you too. Where's your owner? Did they come with you, or did they just leave you behind?"
The little rabbit was stunned for a moment, then became a bit frantic. It hadn't been making a fuss just to be cute!
"Sister Wanxi, a little rabbit." Qianqian tugged at Ye Wanxi's clothes, staring longingly at the little rabbit in her hand.
Upon seeing her expression, Ye Wanxi immediately understood what she was thinking: "Does Qianqian want to pet the little rabbit?"
"Uh-huh."
Ye Wanxi squatted down, holding the little rabbit so that Qianqian could reach out and touch it.
Xiao Yuanyuan had visited the Xiao family a few times with Feng Tianyu before and had a good impression of this cute little guy. So she nestled in Ye Wanxi's arms, lying flat and letting her touch her.
Children's happiness is so simple; they can be excited for half a day just by touching a soft little bunny.
Not only that, she also recognized the little rabbit's true identity at a glance.
"Little bunny, brother's little bunny."
Brother? Madam Xiao was stunned for a moment before she calmed down and carefully examined the rabbit in Ye Wanxi's hand. The more she looked at it, the more familiar the rabbit seemed.
"Isn't this... the rabbit from the Heavenly Realm?"
Ye Wanxi's hand holding the little rabbit suddenly froze. She glanced at Madam Xiao in surprise before belatedly realizing that Feng Tianyu was supposed to call Madam Xiao "Auntie," so she was caught off guard... meeting the parents?
Ahhhhh... Ye Wanxi felt like a screaming chicken had entered her heart, and she couldn't help but want to scream out loud, but her face was numb and blank, at a loss.
Fortunately, Gao Min stepped forward at this crucial moment, cleared her throat and said, "Um, don't all rabbits look pretty much the same? Are you sure you're not mistaken? This is just an ordinary little rabbit."
"You're mistaken?" Madam Xiao stared at the little rabbit in Ye Wanxi's hand for a long time with suspicion.
The little rabbit's white fur was stained with some flower juice from being pressed into the bouquet of roses, making it look quite different from Feng Tianyu's rabbit.
But when Madam Xiao saw the little tag hanging around the rabbit's neck, she finally confirmed her guess.
She opened her mouth as if to say something, when Xiao Yuti walked over from the other end of the corridor.
"What are you all doing gathered around here? Hey, whose flower is this? It's quite pretty."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanxi, clutching the little rabbit, jumped up and said, "Auntie, Mr. Xiao, I have something to do later, I have to report to the business department first. Let's talk again next time." Then she made her escape.
Gao Min was taken aback for a moment, and quickly said, "Ahem, Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, you're busy. Wanxi can't do without me, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, she grabbed the large, cumbersome bouquet of roses and ran away as fast as she could.
Left completely bewildered, Xiao Yuti looked to her wife for help: "Am I that scary? Why do they run away like cats seeing mice as soon as they see me?"
"Perhaps... a guilty conscience?"
"Huh? What did she do?"
Madam Xiao took a deep breath and said seriously, "Let me ask you, a young man has a pet that he cherishes very much, and he doesn't even let his family touch it easily. But one day, this young man gives his pet to a beautiful girl. Why do you think that is?"
Is this young person male or female?
"Of course it's a man."
"Is that even a question? This young man is definitely pursuing that pretty girl, or they're already in a relationship."
"I see." Madam Xiao couldn't help but recall the bright red roses, and suddenly realized, "So that's their relationship?"
Upon reflection, she realized that the two of them had seemed rather strange back at the Xiao family home, but at that time, she was mostly focused on Qianqian and hadn't had time to think about it further.
Xiao Yuti was completely confused: "The two of them? Who are they? What's their relationship?"
"No one."
“…Oh.” Xiao Yuti was puzzled, then thought of Ye Wanxi, “So, what’s going on with them? Did they do something bad?”
Madam Xiao rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "Isn't it because you're too unpleasant to look at? You scared people away."
"???" Mr. Xiao, who had been unexpectedly attacked by his wife, was heartbroken and turned into pieces on the spot.
"Mommy, why did Sister Wanxi leave?" Qianqian, who had been petting the little rabbit and then disappeared, ran over and hugged her mother's leg, looking a little aggrieved.
Madam Xiao reached out and picked her up: "Sister Wanxi has work to do, so she'll have to go now. I'll play with you again when I have time."
"Oh." Sisi was a little disappointed, but when she thought of Ye Wanxi and the big picture she had promised, she quickly cheered up again.
Compared to her optimism, Madam Xiao was inexplicably conflicted at this moment.
Her nephew has secretly started dating a girlfriend. Does her sister know?
If I don't know, should I tell her?
