Chu Jiangyi's wishful thinking backfired.
As soon as he and Xi Ran sat down, Chu Jiangning chose to shut his mouth, and the atmosphere became quite awkward.
Chu Jiang was also puzzled and looked at Chu Jiangning with a questioning expression.
"Chu Jiangning, what do you mean by this?"
Chu Jiangning glanced at Chu Jiangyi and said indifferently, "It's nothing, but with you here, I really can't speak properly. The more I say, the more mistakes I make."
“What’s the point of speaking? Just say what you mean. Why are you being so coy? This isn’t like you at all.”
Chu Jiangning glared fiercely at her brother, who only caused her trouble; he couldn't possibly say anything nice.
"Where am I being coy? I've always been like this. Don't slander me."
Chu Jiang pointed to himself and asked uncertainly, "I'm slandering you? How dare you say that?"
"What's there to be embarrassed about? You've only ever been good at undermining me since we were kids."
"I……"
Chu Jiang was also furious.
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Xi Ran quickly tried to smooth things over.
"Stop arguing! Can't you two just get along properly? Like me and Xi Yan, get along well instead of acting like we're the wrong door gods the moment we meet. Listening to you talk is exhausting!"
Chu Jiangyi glanced at Chu Jiangning and decided to turn off the engine.
Anyway, his sister is very quick-witted, and he's no match for her. Knowing when to quit while he's ahead is the best option.
Chu Jiangning was not to be outdone; she glared at Chu Jiangyi and rolled her eyes several times.
Xi Yan was amused by the way his siblings interacted for the first time!
That's quite interesting!
The bickering sibling dynamic is quite entertaining.
He'd only ever seen this kind of relationship between couples; it was the first time he'd ever seen siblings together—it was quite novel!
"Have they always been like this?"
Xi Ran nodded helplessly.
"Yeah! Whenever these two get close, they're like magnets repelling each other, hurting each other. Sigh! I'm so used to it. When they meet, they're like fighting cocks, but when they're apart, they secretly care about each other and miss each other!"
Xi Yan nodded, seemingly understanding the way the two got along.
"Who cares about him!"
"Who cares about her!"
The two said in unison.
Xi Ran looked helplessly at her younger brother, "That's how it is. The two of them are so stubborn. No wonder they share the same blood."
"snort!"
"snort!"
The two of them turned their faces to the side in perfect unison.
Xi Yan smiled but didn't say anything. He found it quite interesting and wanted to watch the show a little longer, but he had to be concerned about his sister's health. After all, he had come back specifically for his sister. He moved over and sat down next to Xi Ran.
"Sis! Is your hand alright?"
"It's okay! You can go to the hospital to have the stitches removed in a week."
"I heard your hand injury was quite serious. Will it affect your painting in the future?"
Xi Ran smiled and said, "Actually, I just cut my hand and damaged a major artery, which caused me to lose a lot of blood. It will be fine after some rest. No bones were broken. It's just that my mother-in-law was worried and wanted to do double protection, which is why my hands are bandaged like this. It's not that serious, just a minor injury."
Xi Yan clearly didn't believe it. "Not serious? He's already taking Chinese medicine, how could it not be serious?"
"That's a pregnancy-preserving medicine!"
"But what if it harms the baby? That's why they're asking for help to save the pregnancy."
"The baby is fine, don't be so alarmed. I was just a little frightened, which is why the doctor prescribed me medication to prevent miscarriage. It's not as complicated as you think."
Xi Yan nodded. Since her sister said it was nothing, it must really be nothing.
He'll stop worrying unnecessarily!
After Xi Ran and Xi Yan finished chatting, the two siblings were still arguing like fighting cocks, their tension palpable. They needed to find a way to stop them from arguing.
My head hurts!
"Chu Jiangyi, I need to use the restroom, can you take me there?"
Since his wife needed him, Chu Jiangyi came over eagerly and helped Xi Ran up to walk towards the toilet.
"Come on! I'll help you, but be careful!"
"Okay! But I want to relieve myself in the upstairs restroom!"
"good!"
Xi Ran did whatever she wanted, and Chu Jiang had no complaints.
As long as he's happy.
Xi Ran walked halfway and turned back to give Chu Jiangning a mischievous look, which Chu Jiangning returned.
Chu Jiangyi also noticed the interaction between Xi Ran and Chu Jiangning, but said nothing. As long as his little wife was happy, that was all that mattered.
