As soon as she said that, He Jing laughed, whether out of anger or amusement, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons, charming yet tinged with a hint of mockery.
This was the first time she had ever heard of forced apologies, and she couldn't help but wonder, "What if I say no?"
He Sui immediately reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and its fur stood on end, shrieking, "He Jing, don't go too far!"
He Jing raised an eyebrow: "So what if it's excessive? If you're so capable, kick me out of the He family and bring your precious Xiaoyi back. See if my brother and parents agree."
It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned his older brother, because the mere mention of his brother reminded He Sui of He Yuan. He turned around angrily and went to find a landline to call He Yuan.
If He Yuan also agrees to drive He Jing away, then He Jing is definitely leaving, and they never want to see her again.
He Ning looked at He Jing: "Big brother dotes on Xiao Yi, he won't take your side."
He Jing remained calm and composed, a slight smile playing on her lips: "If my older brother won't help me, then there are still Mom and Dad. I don't believe there isn't a single reasonable person in the He family."
In short, she disliked their habit of wrongly accusing people.
The call was quickly connected, and He Sui, in front of He Jing, launched into a long tirade against He Yuan. His tone was anything but exaggerated, portraying He Jing as utterly wicked and beyond redemption, as if there were no more despicable people in the world than He Jing.
He Yuan listened patiently, and finally asked, "So what exactly happened between He Jing and Xiao Yi?"
He Sui choked abruptly, suddenly realizing that he didn't seem to know the situation. So he turned to He Jing and shouted, "Hey, tell me honestly what happened when you bullied Xiao Yi at school."
He Jing found it amusing: "If you just tell me to talk, I'll lose face."
He Sui was so angry that his liver hurt. He immediately turned around and continued to complain: "Brother, you heard it too. In short, in this family, it's either her or me, it's either her or me."
He Yuan then said, "Okay, I understand. I'll look into it. I'm working part-time right now, so I'll hang up."
Then, with a "beep," the phone went dead.
He Sui put down the phone, as if he could already see the day He Jing was sentenced to death. He turned back and said triumphantly, "He Jing, you're finished."
He Jing chuckled, "Then I'll wait."
After saying that, she slammed the door shut.
The living room returned to silence. He Sui remained silent for a while, then muttered "Damn it" under his breath. He Ning frowned as he looked at He Jing's bedroom door, his eyes dark.
The next day, He Sui got up to make breakfast, deliberately not making He Jing's portion. He wanted to teach He Jing a lesson and let her know what she should and shouldn't do.
He Xiaoguo secretly used a spoon to cut off her portion, intending to leave it for He Jing.
Although it's really annoying that the new older sister bullies the old one, Mom says it's not okay to skip breakfast.
To everyone's surprise, after washing up, He Jing glanced at them and their breakfast in front of them, then went downstairs without any emotion.
Five minutes later, she returned and sat down in front of the three of them, carrying a steaming bowl of ramen.
This is not an ordinary bowl of ramen; it's a deluxe version with He Xiaoguo's favorite fried egg, He Ning's favorite cilantro, and He Sui's favorite braised beef.
The aroma of meat, eggs, and cilantro filled the entire living room through the swirling steam. He Ning's fingers, which were holding a spoon to scoop porridge, paused. He Xiaoguo stared intently at the tiger-skin fried egg in He Jing's bowl and swallowed hard...
This is fucking...
He Sui suddenly felt that the breakfast in front of him didn't taste so good anymore.
