Miao Yijiajia carried a small pearl bag across her shoulder that could only hold a cell phone and a lipstick. She had no interest in sweet things. After walking around the store with her friend for a while, she felt bored and took out her cell phone from her bag to check her social media.
Just by chance, I glanced casually and saw the sisters.
Miao Yijia still had one hand on her bag, as if under a spell, unable to move. After a moment, she turned away, a look of resentment and resentment flashing in her eyes.
A few days passed, and Chen Songbai didn't say a word about how to deal with the matter. He just treated her like a decoration and left her aside. He also didn't let her continue living in his house. He rented a house, sent her and her luggage there, and then left her alone.
Every time she opened her eyes, she wondered why Chen Songbai hadn't divorced Xia Xuan yet.
She didn't believe that Xia Xuan didn't mind. After seeing that scene with her own eyes, how could Xia Xuan bear it?
Across the crowd, Xia Xuan glanced at Miao Yijia a few times with an unpleasant expression. Not wanting to confront her head-on, she pulled Xia Xi's arm and whispered, "We've almost finished shopping, sister, let's go."
From beginning to end, she never thought of making things difficult for Miao Yijiajia, she just didn't want to see her.
Including Chen Songbai.
As long as she didn't see them, she could barely maintain her composure.
Xia Xi shifted his gaze from Miao Yijia's face, smiled gently at Xia Xuan, and shook her hand: "I said I wanted to buy more. Can you help me pick some more? I'll go talk to her."
Since we are so destined to meet here, we can't pretend that we have never met this person.
Xia Xuan was a little nervous. She pulled her back and shook her head awkwardly. "Forget it. There's nothing to say to her."
Xia Xi knew that her sister was soft-hearted, so she patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't worry, I know my limits."
Miao Yijia caught a glimpse of Xia Xi approaching, and her heart tightened. She wasn't familiar with Xia Xi, having only shared a single meal together. This woman possessed a powerful presence and a deep mind, unlike Xia Xuan, who was soft and easily bullied. She clutched the pearl chain of her bag tightly, turned to look for her companions, and tried to leave.
Unexpectedly, my companion was bending over to pack candy.
Miao Yijiajia bit her lip irritably. She couldn't leave on her own because that would seem too deliberate.
In the blink of an eye, Xia Xi was in front of her, smiling faintly, as if she didn't know about the affair between Chen Songbai and her. But she was Xia Xuan's biological sister, how could she not know?
"What a coincidence." Xia Xi looked at her, his gaze lingering on her left wrist for two seconds. It was still wrapped in white gauze, but judging by her complexion, she looked fine. "There's a coffee shop nearby. Let's go over and chat?"
Miao Yijiajia's companion heard a pleasant voice and turned around with a transparent plastic bag in his hand. Standing in front of Miao Yijiajia was a mature and beautiful woman with long black curly hair down to her waist. She was wearing a short knitted short-sleeved shirt and a denim skirt. She looked simple, casual and beautiful, with a white waist visible between the hem of the short-sleeved shirt and the waist of the skirt.
"Jia Jia, is this your friend?" The companion was very curious. He had known Miao Yijiajia for a long time, but had never seen such a person in her circle of friends.
No matter how calm Miao Yijia pretended to be, she was still a fresh-faced woman entering the workforce, with limited experience and skills. When she met someone she wasn't sure of, she felt a bit intimidated. Her expression was strained, and she gave a dry laugh, "No."
Xia Xi smiled generously at her companion: "It's just a little bit of a relationship. I just happened to meet her, so I'll say a few words to her."
"You guys chat, you guys chat." The companion turned his head back tactfully and continued to pick candies.
Xia Xi raised an eyebrow and looked at Miao Yijia: "Let's go."
Miao Yijiajia was very reluctant, but she didn't know how to refuse. She hesitantly explained, "I... I have something to do later, so why not... forget it."
Xia Xi slowly put away the smile on her face, leaned forward, tilted her head, and whispered in her ear: "If you don't mind, I can also talk to you here, talk about how you slept in the same bed with your cousin."
Miao Yijiajia's face changed drastically and she looked around in panic, afraid that someone would hear her.
More and more people were coming into the store, most of them parents with their children. Miao Yijia's palms were sweating as she reluctantly nodded, "Okay then."
Miao Yijia lowered her head and followed Xia Xi to the coffee shop next door. The atmosphere here was very quiet, in contrast to the candy store. But the space was large enough, and the tables were well spaced apart.
Xia Xi ordered a non-coffee drink, while Miao Yijia absentmindedly ordered an Americano. She cupped the cup in both hands, the coolness dispelling the sweltering heat from her palms. Her eyes dropped low, not daring to look directly at Xia Xi. Her shoulders hunched slightly, a protective gesture.
"I heard you cut your wrists, are you okay?"
Xia Xi did not play by the rules and started to care about her health first. Miao Yijiajia was stunned, with surprise flashing in her eyes. She thought Xia Xi would be aggressive, but the facts were the opposite of what she expected, which made her even more at a loss.
"It's, it's okay." Miao Yijia's heart beat faster and her words became unclear.
"How could you be so depressed?" Xia Xi shook her head, a look of regret on her face. "You are still so young, and the road ahead is so long. If you die, everything will be gone. There are still many beautiful things in this world worth cherishing."
"After the incident, everyone blamed me. I felt helpless. I didn't think straight at the time and did something stupid. I won't do it again." Miao Yijia gradually relaxed her guard and looked up at her. "How is my cousin's wife? I'm really sorry for her."
Seeing her hypocritical behavior, Xia Xi's eyes turned cold. "Don't worry, she's fine. You saw it too. She happily went shopping with me, buying dresses and candy. She may look a little weak, but she's my sister. How could she be so vulnerable?"
Miao Yijia was stunned for a few seconds. Xia Xuan was different from what she expected. Shouldn't she be desperate to divorce Chen Songbai?
