"Yeah, I know, sis. I'm all grown up now, not like I was when I was little."
If Xia Yiyang were to see this person in the family compound, he would definitely look at him in a new light. He is really different now than when he was a child.
As soon as the two entered the canteen, they were stared at by the people eating there. Even though Xia Yiyang had grown up in the military, he felt a little uneasy being stared at by so many people. He turned and moved closer to Chu Xingyue.
"Who's that kid next to the class monitor?" Chen Zhongbin nudged Liu Jie, who was buried in his work.
Liu Jie looked up at Chu Xingyue, then at Xia Yiyang beside her, and replied directly.
"I don't know" went back to eating.
"They're about the same age and behaving intimately, could they be boyfriend and girlfriend?" Fu Jingcheng said after looking at them.
"Judging from his walking posture, he's a soldier, but probably not from our military region; he's wearing civilian clothes."
Yang Run finished swallowing the food in his mouth.
"Sis, everyone's watching us, I'm a little nervous," Xia Yiyang whispered to Chu Xingyue beside her.
"What are you afraid of? You haven't done anything wrong."
"That's true."
"Could you please order five servings each of braised pork, spicy chicken, stir-fried pork liver, and beef and potato? Also, please order five baskets of mutton buns today, and pack them all up for me. Thank you!"
"Little Chu is here!"
"Uncle Liu, my sister-in-law is here. Get her some good food to take home," Chu Xingyue said with a smile to Old Liu inside.
"Uncle Liu, do you still remember me?" Xia Yiyang leaned closer and said happily to Liu Shulin inside.
"Poplar tree?" Old Liu asked with a hint of uncertainty.
"That's me! I'm back!"
Xia Yiyang walked straight inside, familiar with the route.
"Uncle, I really miss your braised pork. It's been so long since you've had it. I dream about eating your braised pork."
"I miss my braised pork, but why haven't you come back?"
"Uncle, you don't know, there's a chef in my school cafeteria who can cook braised pork. When I miss your braised pork, I can only eat the ones in the cafeteria, but they're still not quite as good as yours."
Xia Yiyang's disgusted little expression made Liu Shulin laugh.
"Haha, then eat more today. Is five servings enough for your sister? With your sister around, you probably won't get any more."
"Uncle, let me tell you, my sister is here too. She can eat just as much as my older sister. You'd better prepare more of your signature dishes for the next couple of days, or I'm afraid it won't be enough for both of them," Xia Yiyang whispered in Old Liu's ear.
"Oh?" Liu Shulin's eyes lit up. There's another one that can be eaten too?
This chef likes people with big appetites; if they eat a lot, it means his cooking is delicious.
"What bad things are you saying about me?" Chu Xingyue's voice came from behind Xia Yiyang.
"No, I didn't say anything, sis. I was just catching up with Uncle Liu. We haven't seen each other for years." Xia Yiyang immediately backed down.
Liu Shulin had never seen a monkey afraid of anyone before, and he looked at the two of them with great curiosity.
"Xiao Chu, Yang Shutou said your sister is here too? Come have dinner together tomorrow, I'll cook for you all myself, you can eat your fill."
"Yes, Uncle Liu, my sister has quite an appetite, so I'll have to trouble you with that tomorrow. I'll treat you to drinks later."
"Haha, I'll be waiting!" "Definitely, definitely."
"It's all packed, Uncle Liu. We're heading back now. You can rest."
"Go on, go on, come back if you need more."
"Alright, Uncle, let's go."
Xia Yiyang's hands were full of bags, and Chu Xingyue carried a few more for her. Xia Yiyang's hands were simply too full. If it weren't for the fact that she could carry them all, she would never have to lift a finger as long as her younger brother was around.
"Sister, you take the lighter ones, I'll take the heavier ones. I'm strong enough."
Let's go.
Xia Yiyang carried a full bag in both hands, while Chu Xingyue walked beside him carrying a small bag. The two chatted as they walked.
The gazes that had been watching them in the cafeteria turned away as they walked away.
"Siblings?"
Fu Jingcheng muttered to himself as he watched the two figures walk away.
The people most likely to know Xia Yiyang are those living in Kyoto.
However, the others were a few years older than him, and Xia Yiyang had spent most of her time growing up in the Chu family, where family discipline was strict, so Fu Jingcheng had never met Xia Yiyang.
"This kid knows Old Liu inside, so he must be from our military region, probably from the family compound."
Jiang Yu analyzed.
"We'll just ask the class monitor when we run into each other tomorrow. Who knows, we might even bump into each other again. Let's eat."
Many people are still speculating about the relationship between the two, but this little storm will soon pass.
After dinner, Gu Si took Chu Jiaojiao upstairs to see the clothes she had prepared for her.
Chu Xingyue and Xia Yiyang chatted with Xia Lin in the study.
"Uncle, I'm not preparing lunch for Yangyang and Jiaojiao tomorrow. Those guys are treating me to dinner and drinks. I'm taking Yangyang and Jiaojiao with me. Old Liu is giving us a special meal."
"Oh? These guys are treating you to drinks?" Xia Lin said with amusement.
"Yes, I know exactly what they're thinking."
"Sis, is someone giving you trouble here? I'll beat them up for you."
Before Xia Yiyang could speak, Chu Jiaojiao, who had just entered, couldn't help but speak up upon hearing Chu Xingyue's words.
"Me too, me too!" Xia Yiyang couldn't help but say.
"Which brats dared to cause trouble for my sister on my turf? They probably won't even know how they died."
"Slap!" He got slapped on the head.
"Whose father are you? Whose father are you?" Gu Si heard Xia Yiyang's words as he followed in.
"Mom, Mom, my dear mother, my dad is my father, my dad is my father, please be gentle, or your son's ear will be gone." Xia Yiyang's ear was being pulled by his mother, Gu Si, and he quickly begged for mercy.
"I was just saying you've become sensible, but now you're spouting nonsense again."
"Dad, am I still your dearest son?"
“You’re not our son anymore. Your sisters are our children. Get lost, you piece of trash. You’ve only just come back and you’ve already made me angry.” Gu Si, with his arms linked with the two sisters, proudly raised his chin at Xia Yiyang.
"Mom, is there really no love left between us?"
"No, we only address each other by our titles."
"Hahaha"
Chu Jiaojiao laughed so hard she almost fell over when she saw Xia Yiyang's antics.
"Your sister needs your help to teach her a lesson? These troublemakers have already been taught a lesson by your sister countless times before you arrived. They're always bruised and battered."
Xia Lin was very proud. Her niece had a way of dealing with these boys. So there's nothing that a beating can't solve. If one beating doesn't work, then two, and if two don't work, then more. Look how well-behaved these boys are now.
“Yes, troublemakers need to be beaten up. You can’t leave them alone.” Xia Yiyang agreed after hearing this, as he had been beaten up by his sister quite a bit.
"Sis, are you planning to take Yangyang and me out to dinner tomorrow?"
"Yes. These people all come from good families. Let me introduce you to them."
"Can I drink tomorrow?" Chu Jiaojiao winked at Chu Xingyue in a flattering manner.
