He would sneak into his room to sleep at night.
That extra hour was his time to shower and use the toilet.
Now that I have some free time, I should definitely take advantage of it.
Jiang Yao took two steps forward, blocking Xi Xingxue's path, and raised an eyebrow at him like a hooligan, whistling: "Come on, you're not an outsider."
Shen Yu's eyes turned cold, and he looked at him with a warning gaze.
Jiang Yao quickly said against his will, "After all... you'll be my sister-in-law from now on."
Shen Yu's expression softened; he was relieved that they weren't trying to take him away.
Xi Xingxue was startled, feeling that there was something strange about what he said.
In a corner where Shen Yu couldn't see, Jiang Yao's gaze towards him was anything but simple.
At least it wasn't the way he looked at his sister-in-law.
Soon, the three of them went up to the rooftop to enjoy the breeze.
They didn't notice that as they went up to the rooftop, someone noticed them and hurriedly walked towards Zhu Yuan's class.
"The walls around your college are so high, I almost twisted my ankle."
Jiang Yao loosened his wrist, seemingly talking to Shen Yu, but actually glancing at Xi Xingxue out of the corner of his eye.
At this moment, Xi Xingxue herself was leaning against the railing, staring blankly at the scenery of the school.
The light cast two intersecting lines of shadow on his face, further emphasizing his well-defined bone structure.
Jiang Yao secretly glanced at him.
Oh my god, she's so beautiful. No wonder he couldn't forget her after seeing her. If only he could take her back as his wife. Damn it, Shen Yu had to take a liking to her. How can he possibly win her over?
Shen Yu raised his foot, his tall figure blocking Jiang Yao's view, and looked over with a wary and cold gaze.
"You came all this way just to say this?"
Jiang Yao rolled his eyes and realized that Shen Yu had noticed something was wrong. He remained calm and his expression finally turned serious.
"It's about our enemy."
"The men I sent out killed them all, but... one of the lieutenants escaped."
"But his arms and legs were broken, and he ran off to a den of thieves. He probably won't live much longer."
After a moment's thought, Shen Yu nodded and said, "Send spies to keep watch in that area. Once they discover any trace of the deputy, make him disappear completely."
"Okay," Jiang Yao agreed.
At that moment, they had no idea that a small fish with a broken leg who had slipped through the net could later stir up a huge storm that they would regret.
After exchanging a few more words about other things, Jiang Yao turned his eager gaze to Xi Xingxue and said with a grin:
Why isn't your sister-in-law saying anything?
Xi Xingxue's hair stood on end: "Shut up."
Shen Yu gave Jiang Yao a complicated look. On one hand, she was worried that Jiang Yao would compete with her for the girl because she knew him well, but on the other hand, she thought the title sounded really nice.
Jiang Yao grinned and asked, "Is your sister-in-law shy?"
Xi Xingxue: "......"
He looked at Shen Yu.
Shen Yu then said, "Alright, don't call him that, he'll be shy."
...Xi Xingxue's silence was deafening.
The two laughed, but Xi Xingxue didn't laugh.
The door on the rooftop, which had been gently closed, suddenly made a loud bang, and a tall figure rushed over.
"Xiao Xi".
His long hair was whipped by the wind, carrying a gentle scent, but his face was terrifyingly dark, only softening when he looked at Xi Xingxue.
Jiang Yao glanced at Zhu Yuan and cursed inwardly: "You damned freak."
Zhu Yuan walked step by step to Xi Xingxue, and glanced at Shen Yu with a forced smile.
"That person is like a pesky fly; whenever I'm not around, they come and sting the eggs I'm tending."
Xi Xingxue: "?" This adjective sounds a bit strange...
Shen Yu didn't speak; he didn't argue with him, seemingly not taking Zhu Yuan seriously.
Zhu Yuan warned, "Shen Yu, the Xi family and the Zhu family will be holding an engagement banquet next week. This is not a place where you can control everything, understand?"
Shen Yu then turned his gaze to Zhu Yuan. As their eyes met, a spark of "I want you dead" exploded between them, his killing intent palpable.
Jiang Yao: Let's fight! Let's fight!
Then he secretly snatched Xi Xingxue away, hehe.
Xi Xingxue: I don't exist, I don't exist.
If you want to escape, just make sure they don't kill you.
Shen Yu sneered: "Oh, then we'll just wait and see."
Zhu Yuan could no longer tolerate his arrogant attitude.
Even the most ordinary mistresses can't compare to him.
......
After the rooftop incident, Zhu Yuan's methods quickly came to fruition.
The principal asked Xi Xingxue to switch shifts.
Soon, Xi Xingxue sat down next to Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan was extremely satisfied.
Because afterwards, Shen Yu didn't cause much trouble and remained very peaceful.
Time flies, and next week will be the day of the engagement party.
This day marked a turning point in Xi Xingxue's life.
It's important to understand that the plot outline cannot be changed; he is destined to be driven out of the Xi family.
These days, with Zhu Yuan's help, the Xi family's crisis seems to have been truly resolved, and everything is developing in a "good" direction.
Father Xi said happily, "Wife, since Shen Yu hates us so much, why don't we kick him out of the Xi family?"
Xi's mother was shocked, as if she were looking at a stranger: "You've kicked our own son out of the house, Old Xi, are you even speaking human language?"
"He is not our son, he is the devil." In the darkness, Xi's father's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"He came back to take revenge on us."
If none of this had happened, and without the help of the Zhu family's daughter, he wouldn't have seen through someone so quickly.
Xi's mother staggered a few steps, her lips trembling: "If you... if you think like that, Xiao Yu will never forgive you!"
