Hua Ruoling tightened her grip, pinching the cat too hard. The cat jumped off her arms, meowed twice, and ran away.
"I... I'm no longer the young lady of the Hua family. How could I be worthy of the only son of the Xie family?" Hua Ruoling seemed to be mocking herself, but hatred surged in her eyes.
Hua Xuan noticed the tension between the two and interrupted, "There's no need to discuss this anymore. Xi Xi is still young. Let's talk about her marriage in a couple of years. Xi Xi, go find your aunt."
Shi Xi nodded. "I'll go take a shower and change my clothes first."
After Shi Xi left, Hua Ruoling said to Hua Xuanhe in a leisurely manner, "I knew it, my brother doesn't like me."
Hua Xuan said with a headache, "You are all my sisters."
Hua Ruoling said, "Even among sisters, there are close and distant relationships."
Hua Xuan was even more speechless.
In his heart, he hoped that the two of them could get along amicably, but their relationship remained so fraught with tension.
Hua Ruoling said, "It's getting late, I'm going to rest now. You should rest early too, brother."
Hua Xuanhe: "Good night."
After taking a shower and changing into her pajamas, Shi Xi went to find Hua Wenying.
Hua Wenying was looking at the design drafts when she saw Shi Xi return. Her eyes lit up with joy. "I was just thinking of going to see you, but I didn't expect you to come."
Have you looked at your walk-in closet? I bought you lots of clothes; they'll definitely suit you.
"Thank you, I'll take a look tomorrow." Shi Xi knew she had a separate walk-in closet at the manor, but she didn't expect that Hua Wenyin had bought all the matching outfits for her.
"How many days can you stay this time?" Hua Wenying asked.
"I'm flying abroad tomorrow to continue filming with the crew," Shi Xi said. "The production schedule is also very tight, so they only gave me three days off."
It was supposed to be a three-day holiday, but most of the time was spent on the road or resting.
She has very few moments to relax.
"It must be so hard," Hua Wenying sighed, then added, "If it's something you enjoy, a little hardship is nothing. If you don't want to do it anymore, you can come back and rest anytime."
Shi Xi: "Okay."
With her current assets, she could easily live a life of leisure or simply inherit a company.
But there's an indescribable charm to the entertainment industry.
Once you're under the lights, you don't want to leave.
Whether it's filming, appearing on variety shows, or performing on stage, Shi Xi always feels a sense of enjoyment.
Since you have to work anyway, why not do something you enjoy?
That's what Shi Xi thought.
Besides, even if she did inherit a company, she'd have to start all over again, and it might not even be as much as she earns from acting.
"By the way, I heard you're in a relationship, is that true?" Hua Wenying asked.
"Yes." Shi Xi nodded readily, without hiding anything.
Shi Xi has always acted very naturally when it comes to dating.
Hua Wenying asked, "Is it Xie Yunzhou?"
Shi Xi continued to nod.
Hua Wenying's expression changed slightly, and she said earnestly, "You are still young. If you just want to date and have fun, Mom won't stop you."
But marriage is a serious matter, you must think it through carefully.
Shi Xi felt a headache coming on when she heard these words, but she didn't want to argue back, so she replied perfunctorily, "I'll think about it carefully."
She didn't know why either.
Why is everyone so resistant to Xie Yunzhou?
Xie Yunzhou is clearly tall, handsome, and rich.
Although he is not a biological child of the Xie family, he still holds the title of the eldest young master of the Xie family.
