Chapter 20
The words in his voice were sincere, full of regret for Lin Xinghai's inability to seek help and heartache for Chi Yunyi after being beaten.
Since this road is temporarily blocked, Lin Xinghai will think of other ways.
Chasing a top-tier nerd girl was incredibly difficult. If he wanted to see her, he had to find a way to arrange a date. He had to consider how and under what circumstances to arrange the date.
Lin Xinghai flipped through the chat logs. He didn't believe Chi Yunshan was someone who would resort to violence. Knowing her, he knew she was the type to talk things over and solve problems slowly.
The reason Xiang Yu gave might be just to appease him.
Just now, Ms. Yi uploaded a dance video. She danced to "The Red Sarlang" in the green mountains and green fields. Wearing pea-green sweatpants and a jacket, paired with a matching baseball cap, she looked like a happy little bird, lively and sunny.
It doesn't look like he just got beaten by his sister.
My wife is so beautiful!
[What a great dance! It's like the breath of a living person!]
[Give the photographer a thumbs up!!!]
[Mr. Yi: Hehehe, it was my mom who took this photo!]
[Where is this, my wife? ]
[Mr. Yi: Celebrating my sister’s birthday in the mountains~]
“…” Lin Xinghai felt that Xiang Yu had set him up.
When Chi Yunshan was just an adult, Chi Youkun gifted her a mountaintop of several hundred acres. Later, Chi Yunshan built a private club on it, and the remaining land was used to build five guesthouses. This became Chi Yunshan's personal property. The mountain's air was exceptionally fresh, its trees were numerous, and its magnetic field was strong, which in turn boosted one's mood.
Xiang Yu’s comments appeared in the comment section.
[Mr. Yi’s fiancé (getting a marriage certificate): “Love” “Love” “Love”]
Mr. Yi: "Lips" "Lips" "Lips"
These three lips jpgs reminded Xiang Yu of that drunken night. His lips suddenly felt hot for no reason and he licked them.
Ignore me: Positioning
[Ignore me: Are you coming? I'm on the mountain~]
【X1Y: Immediately】
【X1Y:～】
Xiang Yu turned around and sent a message to Lin Xinghai: [Come to this place and you'll have a chance to meet your goddess. Today is her birthday, let's celebrate here.]
Lin Xinghai: OK!
Xiang Yu exited the chat page and navigated to Chi Yunshan's private club. The Cullinan was driving along the mountain road, winding its way up.
Before getting off the car, Xiang Yu did not forget to take the jewelry box and put it in his pocket.
This piece of jewelry was definitely not for Chi Yunshan. You could rest assured about that. It wasn't his turn to buy Chi Yunshan a birthday present, and Xiang Yu wouldn't be so idle and have so much money that he wouldn't buy her a gift.
The two of them disliked each other and had a feud since high school. They were the type who couldn't stand each other. It was only because Xiang Yu changed his identity, from "that annoying person" to his brother-in-law, that the two of them were forced to eat under the same roof.
As Xiang Yu entered the room, the two sisters immediately began to fight, their quarrels raging. Chi Yunyi was no match for her sister and, breathless, she retreated behind Liang Qian for protection. Liang Qian, annoyed, retreated to the side, not bothering to pay any more attention. Xiang Yu felt a little awkward.
The fight stopped temporarily. Chi Yunshan sat alone on the sofa playing with her mobile phone. On the sofa opposite, two people sat cross-legged together, very close to each other, whispering.
Xiang Yu said, "Close your eyes, and I will give you a gift."
"Do I have a gift today?"
"right."
Chi Yunyi closed her eyes obediently. Xiang Yu took out the jewelry box, took her hand, and placed the ring box in her hand. He made it seem a bit mysterious. Chi Yunyi opened it and suddenly realized that this was the ring she had set her eyes on today.
"How do you know I like this?" Chi Yunyi really liked this sapphire ring. However, she had something urgent to do during the day and didn't have time to buy it.
"Yeah, I know."
Chi Yunshan hadn't finished rolling her eyes when a work call came in, and she went to the side to answer it. The young couple on the sofa behind her were sweetly flirting with each other. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath as she listened to the voice coming from the phone.
Chi Yunyi was watching a video and saw a delicious dish. It was probably made by frying preserved eggs and duck eggs in a pan until bubbles appeared, then adding water, vegetables, and cooking rice noodles. It looked delicious. She asked, "Can you make this?"
"Yes, it's very simple."
The stove was large, and besides the area Chi Youkun was using, there was still plenty of room. Xiang Yu simply said hello to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, then joined in the cooking. He skillfully stir-fried the food, and the aroma emanated, attracting Liang Qian's attention. Leaning over, she saw a layer of golden egg yolk simmering in the pot, with beautiful golden bubbles rising. Liang Qian couldn't help but praise Xiang Yu from the bottom of her heart, "Ah Yu, you cook really well. Our Yi Yi is lucky to have you."
Chi Youkun didn't know what was wrong with him, so he moved a little too much and asked Liang Qian, "What else do you want to eat? Tell me."
Chi Yunyi also praised: "Baby, you are really amazing. I only showed you once, and you learned it by yourself." She said, "Dad, you cut the vegetables so neatly."
Chi Youkun: "That was cut by your mother."
"...Oh, Mom, you're amazing. You cut it so well. Dad, you know, when we were at home before, my sister and I really wanted you to cook, because you're just like my baby, and any dish you cook is delicious."
Chi Yunyi can praise three people in one sentence. Three people is not the upper limit of her ability, but there are only three people in front of her.
These words touched Chi Youkun's heart, "From now on, whenever I have time, I will cook for you."
"That's great, Dad." Chi Yunyi looked at Liang Qian, who smiled.
This was the scene Chi Yunshan saw when she came back after finishing her work call.
The family gathered together, the lights above their heads were not turned on, only the candles were burning, and the number "28" was flashing.
"Happy 28th birthday, Shanshan."
"Congratulations, baby, on turning another year older."
"Happy birthday, sister. Stop hitting me when you're 28."
"Happy birthday." Xiang Yu also said.
The candles are out, the cake is cut, and the new year begins.
Chi Yunyi took photos, Xiang Yu provided fill-in lighting, and Liang Qian adjusted Chi Yunshan's skirt. Chi Youkun wasn't idle either; he was also using his phone to record the family's happy moments.
In fact, he cares about and cherishes this family very much.
An embarrassing incident happened earlier, when Chi Youkun was questioned about his loyalty by his family members.
The reason was that year, a prominent figure was caught in a shocking scandal involving his wealthy family. Rumors circulated that he had eight mistresses and 12 illegitimate children. Including two children born to his wife, a total of 20 children were fighting over the family fortune. This scandal spread rapidly online, and many wealthy daughters and sons rushed home overnight, questioning whether their fathers had sired children outside.
Chi Yunshan and Chi Yunyi are among them.
Chi Yunyi was responsible for recording evidence, Chi Yunshan was responsible for checking the accounts, and Liang Qian also joined in to question and investigate Chi Youkun's whereabouts. With the efforts of everyone, regardless of whether he had any connections outside, they forced Chi Youkun to sign an agreement notarized by a lawyer.
Chi Yunshan's original words were: "Dad, sign this agreement and prove your innocence to us."
Chi Yunyi: "Dad, I'm recording a video. Everything you say and do will be recorded as evidence. Please answer our questions seriously."
Liang Qian: "Do you have anyone outside?"
Chi Youkun: "No! Absolutely not!"
Liang Qian's facial expression softened slightly: "Do you have an illegitimate child outside?"
Chi Youkun: "No! It's unfair! I wouldn't dare to do that even if you kill me!"
Liang Qian: "Are you going to sign this agreement or not?"
Chi Youkun: "Sign, sign, sign. I'll sign now!"
After taking a shower, Chi Yunyi admired the sapphire ring she had just gotten before going to bed.
After Xiang Yu went to bed and turned off the lights, Chi Yunyi turned on the flashlight on her phone and shone it on the sapphire. "It's really beautiful."
"Yeah, as beautiful as you."
He spoke so pleasantly that Chi Yunyi laughed twice, smiling even wider, and complimented him, "You're handsome too."
Xiang Yu's lips curved, "You're right."
Turning off the flashlight, Chi Yunyi covered herself with the quilt and chatted. There was a cool breeze outside, and the air conditioning in the room was at a suitable temperature. The bed was soft and comfortable. She had just taken a shower and smelled good. She didn't feel like urinating either. Before going to bed, she sighed, "I feel so happy."
She was curious, "What is the happiest thing in your 25 years of life?"
"have no idea."
His situation was different from Chi Yunyi's. She grew up in love, but he didn't.
It had been a bumpy road. He had endured much hardship and suffering. There hadn't been many moments of happiness. Even though some love had found him later, it always came too late.
What you lack in childhood can never be made up for no matter how much you have when you grow up.
That scar-like thing will always exist, forever.
Even if it heals, there will still be a raised, ugly shape.
"Do you ever feel unhappy?" Chi Yunyi propped herself up and looked at his expression.
"Of course."
"I'm the best at making people happy. If you're unhappy, come to me and I promise to make you happy."
Xiang Yu couldn't help but recall something that happened before.
She always says she can't comfort people.
But when he was feeling very sad, she handed him a dessert and said, "People need to eat. Only by eating can they live. Only by eating delicious food can they be happy."
"Oh, if you're really sad, just cry. Come, I'll cry with you." She sat cross-legged in front of him. It was obvious that she was trying hard to cultivate the feeling of wanting to cry, but before she could hold back many tears, long, glistening snot ran out. She was blowing her nose here.
Chi Yunyi screamed and ran away embarrassedly.
Xiang Yu burst into laughter.
He took the small cake next to him in his hand, felt the breeze, and took a bite. He would always remember the taste.
Xiang Yu turned around and left his back to her. "You've coaxed me many times."
"What??"
"Good night, time to go to bed."
(A quick question: Audit, is there any problem here? Why is it specifically marked? Does this have anything to do with "yellow"? I really don't understand your audit standards)
Are you going to bed at nine o'clock?
Xiang Yu was motionless. Chi Yunyi lay down beside him, her eyes rolling as she thought about her own things.
She deliberately waited until the person next to her had even breathing before she stretched out her evil little hand.
Xiang Yu, who had not fallen asleep yet, suddenly opened his eyes.
For no apparent reason, a sense of satisfaction surged from my chest, down along my heart to my spine.
Just as Xiang Yu was about to grab the naughty little hand, Chi Yunyi shifted her position.
(Audit, can this be considered a standard? Don’t lock me, please, I really didn’t write anything, are you targeting me?)
