After the two entered the room, Xu Zhi washed Xu Bai's hands, then placed the plate of mung bean cakes on the kang table. Looking at her younger brother sitting opposite her, she smiled and said, "Come on, tell your sister, what's troubling you?"
Xu Bai felt that even his favorite mung bean cakes had lost their flavor. He picked one up, looked at it, and then put it down, saying, "Sister, I know you like Brother Zheng."
After Xu Bai finished speaking, Xu Zhi's face immediately turned red, and she said somewhat guiltily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xu Bai said, "Sister, don't worry, I haven't told anyone. Really, I knew you liked Brother Zheng the first time you met him. I always made things that Brother Zheng liked and sent them to him. Actually, liking someone is fine. As long as Brother Zheng is an upright person, kind-hearted, and treats you well, I have no objections. I just feel that Brother Zheng's family is a handful. They all have so many ulterior motives. It's exhausting to be around them."
Xu Zhi stood up, picked up the plate of mung bean cakes, and said angrily, "If you keep talking nonsense, you won't be allowed to eat any more of my desserts."
Xu Bai quickly grabbed Xu Zhi's hand and said ingratiatingly, "Sister, don't be like this. Since there's a problem, let's solve it properly. How can you have the right attitude to solve a problem like this? Come on, put the plate down, sit down, and let's have a good talk."
Xu Zhi was pulled to sit down by Xu Bai, who said, "Little brother, you can't do this. What you're saying not only ruins my reputation but also Brother Zheng's. He's in trouble and is staying at our house temporarily, so we have to take good care of him. How can you talk about him like this?"
Xu Bai said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I misjudged. Dear sister, please don't be angry anymore. I won't say it again, okay? Sister, I think the mung bean cakes you made taste much better than last time. I like them just the way they are. Can you make them for me again in the future?"
Of the three children in the family, Xu Bai is the best at coaxing people. Whenever he wants, he can shamelessly coax you into being happy, taking advantage of his young age. How could Xu Zhi, such a naive child, be a match for him? In just a few words, Xu Zhi forgot all of Xu Bai's words, which were like daggers to her heart.
