It turned out that he came to beg for food.
Zhou Wang held the door frame with his other hand and lightly uttered two words.
"No!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door slammed shut.
Chen Yun stared at the door for a moment, stunned by the scene before him. This man was so stingy and cheap that he wouldn't even give her a single cherry.
So, why did she come here to seek abuse?
Shen Yun rolled his eyes and returned to his room.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. As soon as my butt touched the bed, I stood up immediately and ran downstairs to look for it, but my aunt said it was gone.
She didn't believe that she wouldn't be able to eat, so she rushed into Chen Xi's room again.
Chen Xi seemed surprised as well and asked, "Didn't my brother send it to you?" She had clearly told him to send it to Chen Yun, so as to bring the siblings closer and the family together in harmony, which was exactly what parents wanted to see.
If he didn't know that Chen Xi had a kind heart and no ill intentions, Chen Yun would have thought that she was showing off invisibly.
A plate of tempting red cherries, but Zhou Wang didn't give any to Chen Xi, and he wouldn't let her have any when she asked for them herself. Damn it, what kind of brother is this?
Chen Yun stared at Chen Xi's shocked face. Suddenly, malice rose in his heart. A look of grievance appeared on his face, and he spoke helplessly, "Sister, does he dislike me? Does he think that I, a country girl, don't know the etiquette? I'm embarrassed to be his sister."
Although she brought the two together, Zhou Wang's attitude was bound to make him feel a little frustrated.
"No...right?" Chen Xi consoled himself, feeling guilty.
Based on her understanding of Zhou Wang, it is really hard to say.
"I wanted to eat cherries, but he refused to give them to me when I asked him. He just locked me out. Sister, I know the first impression I gave you was terrible, but I can't blame brother for being so cold to me." Chen Yun stood by the bed with red eyes, looking like a well-behaved boy who would accept punishment for doing something wrong.
Seeing that she was too aggrieved to sit still, Chen Xi got up from the bed and patted her head soothingly, "Come on, I'll take you to find him."
Chen Xi was about to pull Chen Yun away, but Chen Yun grabbed her arm with his backhand, looking embarrassed. "Sister, this is not good. Brother will definitely think I'm saying bad things about him behind his back. I don't want to offend him again. It's just a cherry, I won't eat it."
That made sense. Chen Xi secretly blamed herself for being too impulsive. She had excitedly brought Chen Yun to ask for cherries, and who knew he might have had more thoughts in his mind.
Chen Xi pushed Chen Yun to sit on the bed, "You sit here and wait, I'll go up and ask him if he wants it. Just say you want to eat it."
Shen Yun nodded and looked at Shen Xi with hope on her face. "Sister, you are so kind."
Chen Xi felt embarrassed by her praise and smiled, "Wait for me."
Not long after Chen Xi went out, the phone on the bedside table rang.
Chen Yun wasn't curious at first. She had no interest in peeking at other people's phones, which were private things. Suddenly, a sudden thought came to her mind: could it be the male protagonist's message?
As far as she knew, the two of them exchanged numbers during their first meeting.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she suddenly became uneasy and stretched out an arm to lift the corner of the quilt to check.
No, it's shameful to peeke into someone's privacy!
OK, cut off the bad karma, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!
As if he had made a great decision, Chen Yun pinched the corner of the quilt and slowly opened it, and a blue phone case came into view.
"What are you doing!"
A cold and slightly questioning voice suddenly sounded.
Chen Yun, feeling guilty, nearly lost her soul. Her heart sank, and she lamented that she really couldn't do bad things behind someone's back. The trust she had worked so hard to gain couldn't be as cold as her current heart. Fortunately, she didn't have time to grab her phone, so the bad thing didn't happen.
No, Shen Xi? This isn't Shen Xi's voice!
Chen Yun slowly shifted his gaze, his hands quietly behind his back. Raising his head slightly, he met a pair of cold, indifferent, and sarcastic black eyes. The person who came was tall and slender, wearing a white home suit, and his hair had not been blow-dried yet.
No, what is Zhou Wang here for?
Didn’t Chen Xi go to him to ask for cherries?
Shen Yun sat up straight and tilted his head to look behind him, looking puzzled as there was no one here.
"Why are you here? I was just about to tidy up the quilt. Where's my sister?" Except for the shock on her face at the beginning, she now calmed down and looked at Zhou Wang calmly.
As soon as Zhou Wang came in, he saw her acting suspiciously. He glanced at her from the phone on the bedside table and scoffed at her words. He asked bluntly, "Oh, I thought you were going to peek at your phone?"
What do you mean by stealing? This is so insulting!
Chen Yun stood up instantly and was about to argue, but he found that he was a head shorter than him and suddenly felt that his momentum was gone.
She moved her toes, took off her soft, creamy white home shoes, and stepped directly onto the bed. She put her hands on her waist and said with full force, "Hey, please don't misunderstand me like this and make such a petty assumption about me. Why would I peek at my sister's phone?"
Now it was Zhou Wang's turn to look up at the aggressive woman. Her pink nightgown reached her knees, revealing her slender white arms and calves. Her hair hung down behind her head, which was wrapped in a white headband. She looked angry and embarrassed.
Zhou Wang clicked his tongue twice, "You have to ask yourself, what good will it do you to sneak a peek at Chen Xi's phone?"
One, she didn’t touch her phone.
Second, what does her actions mean?
Thinking of this, Chen Yun felt even more justified.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
When Chen Xi came in with a fruit plate, she saw the two of them facing each other, especially Chen Yun standing on the bed with an imposing manner. She felt helpless for a moment, wondering why they were arguing again.
The first impression is very important. If Zhou Wang tells her about peeking at her phone first, Chen Xi will probably be suspicious even if she doesn't believe it. So she has to take the initiative.
She withdrew her hand from pinching her waist, and immediately sat on the bed with her legs crossed, looking up at Chen Xi. Her expression instantly turned pitiful, and she said in a soft voice, "Sister, brother wrongly accused me of peeking at your phone."
Zhou Wang glanced at her. Thanks to her, he had the opportunity to watch a Peking Opera face-changing performance live.
"Your phone was on the bedside table, and I pulled the quilt. He saw it and said I had ulterior motives."
Chen Xi glanced at her phone. It was indeed untouched. She had set a password, so Chen Yun wouldn't know it. It was also her brother's fault for being so prejudiced against her. She had originally asked him to come down and talk to her about Cherry, to ease the situation and say he wasn't targeting her, but now it backfired.
Seeing Chen Yun pouting and looking at me with tears in his eyes, my heart warmed. Why did he act like a child complaining?
On one side was Chen Yun, who was looking at someone with a wronged look in his eyes, and on the other side was Zhou Wang, who had a cold look in his eyes.
"Brother, how about you apologize to Ayun?" Chen Xi said this unsurely, her eyes darting back and forth between the two of them. She had never heard Zhou Wang apologize since she was little.
Apologize? Zhou Wang snorted coldly. Does she deserve it?
Without saying a word, he turned around and walked away, his whole body and back exuding a cold and hard look.
Chen Xi expected Zhou Wang would not give her face, so she had to comfort Chen Yun, "I brought the cherries. Brother doesn't understand you, but you'll be fine as you get along. He's cold on the outside but warm on the inside and not good at expressing himself, so don't be angry with him, Ayun."
Cold on the outside but hard on the inside!
Shen Yun was making up his mind.
She smiled shyly at Chen Xi and said, "I'll listen to my sister."
