Outside the house, there were sounds of firecrackers and children playing. Four people sat in silence in the house, and awkwardness spread silently.
Xia Luo had a cold face. If Ji Changye had not been there, she would have walked away. Xihe, on the other hand, adapted well. She ate the food on the table comfortably and gave Ji Changqing instructions from time to time.
She and Ji Changqing cooked the dishes tonight, including chicken, duck, fish, and a bottle of red wine sent by Bai Lan.
The fish had bones, and she never liked eating such troublesome things. However, Ji Changqing calmly picked the bones out for her and put the white, tender and fresh meat into the bowl in front of her.
It was so detailed that not only Xia Luo but even Ji Changye felt a pain in his teeth.
He has always been against Xia He, thinking that she was targeting Xia Luo everywhere. After joining the army, she even bossed his brother around. She had no sense of being someone else's wife and didn't know how to feel sorry for others.
But no matter how many times he said it, his brother didn't take it seriously. Instead, he lectured him about being seduced by beauty and not being deceived by Xia Luo.
Deception? Who was being deceived? Xia He was even more annoying when she looked like that, okay?
What other wife is like her, doing nothing all day and asking her husband to do the dishes and laundry? Sooner or later, she'll telegraph and tell Mom!
He felt aggrieved and just started eating in silence.
Little did she know that Xia Luo was even more angry at this moment.
She already had an old grudge with Xia He, and Ji Changqing also sent her to the police station. Both of them were her enemies.
She had made up her mind to never have anything to do with these two people in her life, but Ji Changye insisted on asking her to come and celebrate New Year's Eve together.
"That incident is over and my brother is not the kind of person who would hold on to things. This is a good opportunity to repair our relationship," said Ji Changye.
Xia Luo: “…”
She had made up her mind to marry Ji Changye, so she had no choice but to come.
But at this moment, seeing her two enemies eating and drinking and being affectionate in front of her, the fire in her heart was burning and she wanted to scratch their faces.
These two people were obviously doing it for her to see!
Glancing at Ji Changye who was eating happily, she felt angry and aggrieved. This guy didn't even know how to help her with her facial!
The meal ended with everyone having different thoughts. After the meal, Xia Luo could no longer bear it and just left with a wave of her sleeves.
Ji Changye quickly chased after him. From his back, it was not difficult to see that he was carefully coaxing people.
Ji Changqing's face darkened instantly. Xihe pursed her lips and smiled. Honestly, she did have some intention of putting on a show, but who knew Xia Luo would be so impatient? She was directly angered and left.
"I won't invite him anymore."
Ji Changqing brought a basin of water over and the two of them soaked their feet together.
Xihe nodded, leaned her head on his shoulder, finished washing, blew out the light, and fell into a deep sleep.
After the Chinese New Year, Xihe received a call from home.
Ji's mother went to the town specifically to find a phone to call her. The two of them talked about this and that, and asked her indirectly if there was any movement in her stomach.
Xihe: “…”
I was speechless for a moment.
She has indeed been here for half a year.
She casually glossed over it, and Ji's mother asked about Ji Changye again.
Only then did Xihe realize that Ji Changye had not sent money home since September.
Ji's mother's voice was filled with annoyance: "Xiaohe, are Changye and Xia Luo still in contact now?" She suspected that the money was probably used by Xia Luo.
Xihe blinked and said, "We had dinner together on New Year's Eve, and we haven't seen each other since then."
Ji's mother secretly hated this woman in her heart. She was simply haunting her.
Advised: "Let Changqing take care of his money."
