"I like both home-cooked meals and expensive, elaborately prepared delicacies, as well as everyday foods and snacks with a rustic, down-to-earth feel."
Ye Zhixi listened attentively and took notes.
After Ye Qi finished speaking, she neatly tidied up the bowls and chopsticks and stacked them aside so that the cleaning lady could easily take them away.
"What about your sister? What kind of food does your sister like?" Ye Qi asked Ye Zhixi in return.
Ye Zhixi hadn't expected Ye Qi to ask her this, and her reaction was a moment slow. But then, realizing it was her adorable little sister asking, she sincerely revealed her hobby:
"I like wontons, takoyaki, fish head with chopped chili, sweet and sour meatballs, honey chicken wings, osmanthus cake, hot and sour beef, spicy hot pot, scallion and egg noodles, steamed egg custard..."
Ye Zhixi realized she had said too much and smiled sheepishly, "I've said a bit too much."
Ye Qi smiled happily: "I like what you've mentioned too. Let's eat together from now on."
Hearing these words, Ye Zhixi felt as if she had been shot in the heart. She was deeply moved and secretly resolved that as the older sister, she must protect her younger sister and earn lots and lots of money for her when she grew up!
After dinner, Ye Qi and Ye Zhixi watched a movie and strolled along a quiet path at night, looking for a place to park their car.
Ye Qi was having a pleasant chat with Ye Zhixi when their path was suddenly blocked.
A group of blond-haired lads blocked their way. The group of ugly, slovenly-looking lads strode over with an arrogant air, licking their lips and wearing what they considered to be trendy clothes, tight-fitting pants. They stared at them with lustful eyes, as if they had spotted some tempting and delicious prey.
Fortunately, there were no other passersby around.
"Hey, two pretty hot chicks!" One of the blond-haired guys raised an eyebrow, brushed his hair back with his hand, and gave them a wicked smile.
"Where are you going, little beauty? Do you want to play with your brother?"
"Yeah, it's not safe for the two of you to be out so late. Your brothers will protect you!"
"Going home is so boring, how about trying something exciting? I'll give you two a different kind of night."
The group of thugs, spewing vulgarities, walked towards them. Ye Qi stepped forward to block Ye Zhixi, and was about to comfort Ye Zhixi by saying "Don't be afraid" when she suddenly felt a pain in her neck.
Ye Qi fainted in Ye Zhixi's arms.
Ye Zhixi's eyes were no longer filled with fear as before. Instead, she looked calmly at Ye Qi, who had fainted in her arms. Looking at Ye Qi's peaceful sleeping face, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
When the group saw Ye Qi faint, they laughed even more unrestrainedly: "Oh! The beauty couldn't wait any longer! Hahahaha!"
The next second, the person who had just mocked Ye Qi was kicked away and crashed into a telephone pole.
Seeing his brother being kicked away, before he could even react, Ye Zhixi grabbed Ye Qi, squeezed his neck with one hand, lifted him up by the neck, and threw him hard, causing him to slam to the ground with a heavy thud.
The person whose neck was being squeezed gasped for breath, terrified and sweating profusely, their legs trembling uncontrollably. Ignoring the pain in their back, they realized with panic that they had just almost stepped into the gates of hell.
Even while carrying Ye Qi, Ye Zhixi's speed was not affected at all, and she knocked the group of people to the ground with one hand.
The group of people were covered in wounds, and their gazes toward Ye Zhixi were no longer lustful, but filled with panic and fear.
"Help...help me!"
"Run!"
They didn't have time to beg for mercy; they scrambled to their feet and ran as fast as they could, as if some heinous monster was behind them that would devour them.
Ye Zhixi glanced at Ye Qi in her arms and saw that the little one was still fast asleep. The corners of her mouth involuntarily curved up. She teasingly pinched her sister's nose, and when she saw her sister's eyebrows furrow and her little mouth pout, she let her go.
Before the main personality returned to the Ye family, she thought the Ye family was cold-hearted and there wasn't a single good person in them. Until today, she felt the main personality's happiness and saw the main personality having a lot of fun with Ye Qi, which also stirred up the other personalities' feelings for Ye Qi.
Ye Zhixi really liked this sweet and soft little sister; it felt very comfortable to hold her.
She simply picked Ye Qi up horizontally, carrying her in a princess carry, letting Ye Qi nestle in her arms.
Ye Zhixi picked up Ye Qi and then remembered the toys scattered all over the floor.
emmmm.
Ye Zhixi hesitated for only 0.2 seconds before deciding whether to take the doll with her, but it would be difficult to bring her younger sister home.
She simply put Ye Qi down, letting Ye Qi lean against her chest, and used her free hand to take out her phone and make a call.
The call was answered very quickly, almost immediately after it was dialed.
"Hello?"
The background noise from the other end of the phone sounded like a lot of people playing around and making a fuss, as well as the static that comes with singing in a karaoke bar.
After a long while, the boy's lazy voice finally came.
"It's me."
Ye Zhixi's words quickly stirred the other person's emotions, and the other person's previously languid tone soon became excited:
"Holy crap! Sister Xi! Sister Xi actually called me! Damn, today is definitely a good day! I'm going to open a few more champagnes."
"Stop talking nonsense, come and help. I'll send you my location, I'll be there in five minutes."
"Okay, sis!"
Ye Zhixi hung up the phone and sent him her location.
Within five minutes, a pink Lamborghini sped up, the deep roar of the sports car piercing the silent night, leaping like a cheetah to their feet.
The boy in the driver's seat of the Lamborghini opened the door, bent down and got out. The moment he saw Ye Zhixi, he was extremely excited: "Wow! This is the first time I've seen Sister Xi wearing such a pure and innocent dress!"
Ye Zhixi raised an eyebrow: "How about it, am I beautiful?"
The boy enthusiastically replied, "Of course! My sister Xi is the most beautiful woman in the world!"
Another handsome young man stepped out of the passenger seat, looked at Sister Xi with gentle eyes, and smiled as comforting as a gentle breeze and the bright moon.
Just as the handsome young man was about to greet Ye Zhixi, Ye Zhixi saw him and directly took out the car keys from Ye Qi's pocket and threw them to him.
The boy barely caught it, looking completely bewildered: "?"
"The electric scooter is over there, please help me drive it back."
Upon hearing this, the boy was not angry; instead, he smiled.
"good."
The boy went directly to the parking lot across the street to drive his car.
Ye Zhixi sent the location of the Ye family villa area to the boy who was driving, and let the boy drive.
The boy helped Ye Zhixi open the door, and Ye Zhixi let Ye Qi in before crawling in herself.
After getting into the driver's seat, the boy stepped on the gas and chatted casually: "Sister Xi, who's that little girl next to you?"
Ye Zhixi closed her eyes to rest, but upon hearing this, she slowly opened them and began to play with Ye Qi's hair with great interest.
"Isn't my little sister cute?"
Ye Zhixi gave him a look, and the boy saw it in the rearview mirror. His heart skipped a beat, as if Ye Zhixi could kick him out of the car if he said he wasn't cute.
"Of course it's cute!"
The boy wasn't lying. Ye Qi, who was napping on Ye Zhixi's lap, was already adorable, and when she slept, she looked like a delicate and beautiful doll.
