☆、Sixty-six、The Brothers' First Meeting (1960 words)
Recently, Feng Zihao has been leaving early and returning late, and he looks unusually tired.
Li Yaxi thought something had happened to his company, so she kept trying to get information from Zhan Xiaoyu and Zhao Yi.
But their stories were surprisingly consistent, which made Li Yaxi even more suspicious!
After Li Yaxi returned home, Cai Weisen often waited and followed him in the vicinity.
Li Yaxi spent even more time at school because of this, attending every class, which almost made Yu Le think that Li Yaxi had changed her personality.
I attend classes every day, and I also sleep every day!
If he really couldn't sleep, he would sit in the last row and play on his phone. What's even more outrageous is that sometimes when Qin Tian got out of class late, he would stay in the dormitory until Qin Tian came to pick him up.
Yu Le looked at the person who had taken over his bed and asked, "What have you been up to lately? Are you being chased by Feng Zihao? You've gone to such lengths to hide! You don't even dare to go home without bodyguards!"
Li Yaxi lay on Yu Le's bed playing Zuma. "What nonsense are you talking about! Who's hiding from Zihao? He's been so busy lately, I haven't seen him all day. I'm even considering hiring a private investigator to check if he's having an affair! These days you have to be careful around mistresses!"
"Pshaw! With your partner's loyalty, you think he'd have an affair? I bet even if you did, he might not!"
Li Yaxi clicked her tongue in disdain. "What are you talking about! Do you think I'm that unreliable? What kind of taste do you have?!"
Just as Yu Le was about to speak, there was a knock on the door. Qin Tian shouldn't have finished class yet, so she went to open the door, puzzled.
"Hello, is Li Yaxi here?"
Yu Le sized up the person in front of him. He was good-looking, but looked somewhat sickly.
"Who are you? What do you want with him?"
Cai Wenliang's gaze drifted towards the interior, and he quickly stepped aside to block Yu Le's view.
"There are some things I want to talk to him about. Tell him my name is Cai Wenliang; he knows that."
Yu Le glanced at him suspiciously, then turned and walked to the bedside, kicking the bed frame with her foot.
"There's someone outside named Cai Wenliang looking for you. Tell him you know his name."
Li Yaxi's hand missed the target, and several balls landed together, resulting in game over.
I put down my phone, sat up in bed, and remained silent for a long time, lost in thought.
Yu Le was a little worried. "Why don't we call Feng Zihao or Qin Tian and ask them to come pick you up?"
Li Yaxi glanced at Yu Le with a smile. "Am I useless or crippled? Do you think I'm a three-year-old? It's okay, when Qin Tian comes over, just tell him I'm going home by myself."
After putting on his shoes and walking to the door, he looked at the person who clearly looked sickly, his eyes devoid of any emotion, and asked, "What do you want?"
Cai Wenliang hadn't expected his younger brother to be so handsome, and his brother's indifferent expression made him hesitate.
"Let's find a place to sit down. There's a coffee shop near the school."
Seeing that he looked weak, Li Yaxi guessed he couldn't stand for long, so she nodded and walked ahead of him.
Although the wound had long since healed, it was still the first time she had ever had surgery on herself, so she was still a little traumatized. Therefore, Li Yaxi did not walk very fast, which could be considered as making way for someone who was terminally ill.
After sitting down at the coffee shop, Li Yaxi ordered a cup of hot milk and a strawberry cream cake. He loved these sweets the most, but unfortunately Feng Zihao never let him eat them.
Cai Wenliang only asked for a cup of hot water, and then kept looking at Li Yaxi.
After Li Yaxi handed the menu to the waiter, she spoke.
"How are you feeling? Dad said you just got discharged from the hospital."
Li Yaxi chuckled lightly, "She's better than you no matter how you look at her."
Cai Wenliang smiled, ignoring Li Yaxi's sarcasm. "I'm sorry, I only just found out that the person I hit while drunk a few years ago was you. I was in detention at the time, and after I got out, you were discharged from the hospital too. I haven't had a chance to apologize to you in person until now. Xiaoxi, I'm sorry."
"Don't call me that so affectionately, I'm nobody to you!"
The waiter quickly brought over their order, and Cai Wenliang only continued speaking after the waiter left.
"Don't misunderstand. Although we found you because of your bone marrow, we didn't want to reunite you because of it. The doctor also said that even if your bone marrow is a perfect match, your body and age make it impossible for you to donate."
Li Yaxi didn't say anything, quietly eating the food in front of her.
The pure white cream, paired with a boy as beautiful as an elf fallen to earth, created a dreamlike and unreal beauty that captivated Cai Wenliang.
Holding the cup in my hand, I rubbed my fingertips back and forth.
"Dad has his own company, so he's always busy and has no time for me. Before I got sick, I always felt he didn't care about me, so I acted recklessly, didn't care about anything, and lived a very absurd life. After I got sick, Dad dropped everything to be with me, and he seemed to age ten years overnight. Later, I realized that not many of my old friends who called me brothers were truly sincere. Hearing Dad tell me about you made me really happy, and I also resent God for not letting us know you existed sooner. If I had a younger brother, I definitely wouldn't have acted so recklessly before. Xiao Xi, I really didn't know you existed before, so it's not entirely Dad's fault. No matter what, you are Dad's son, my younger brother. I know you have resentment in your heart, but I really hope that one day you will understand and accept Dad... Soon, Dad will only have you left."
Li Yaxi took a sip of milk to suppress the sweet taste in her throat.
I always think about eating it, but when I actually eat it, I lose that unforgettable feeling.
Li Yaxi looked up at the person in front of her. They really didn't look alike. He looked more like Cai Weisen, while she probably resembled her mother more, though she could still see a slight resemblance.
"You came to me just to say this? Are you trying to tell me that the old man is very rich and that all that money will be mine after you die, or are you trying to make me make up for your past immaturity and lack of filial piety?"
