In reality, she is already twenty-one years old, while in the book she is not yet eighteen, so she appears more immature in the book.
After getting ready and taking a good look at herself, she went downstairs.
She decided to help her older brother; she couldn't let him work too hard.
As soon as she reached the stairs, she smelled the aroma of food, as well as the smell of pickled fish.
Wow—just smelling the aroma tells me that my brother's cooking skills are top-notch.
Shi Xi walked to the dining table, her eyes shining as she looked at the dishes. Delicious food!
"Big brother, you cook so fast! And the food looks, smells, and tastes amazing. Your wife is in for a treat." She picked up a piece of Mapo Tofu and put it in her mouth, a satisfied smile on her face.
Shi Hao handed her the rice, sat down opposite her, and said with a delighted expression, "What nonsense are you talking about! Where did you get a sister-in-law? I think you're in for a treat."
His younger sister was no longer afraid of him; in fact, she would joke with him. Thinking of this, the smile in his eyes deepened.

Shi Xi took a small sip, and instantly her eyes widened even more. "So fresh, so delicious!"

Shi Xi shook her head and said, "No need, just do it once when you have time. My brother is already working hard enough, how can I make him work hard when he comes home?"
"It's so nice to have a younger sister; she even knows how to care for her older brother. Besides, cooking for my sister isn't hard work."
"Oh, by the way. Did you lose your phone? I tried calling you this afternoon but no one answered," Shi Hao asked.
Shi Xi nodded, feeling guilty, and said, "I don't know where I lost it."
"It's okay, we'll buy one after we finish eating," Shi Hao reassured him.
"Mmm." Hehe, she can buy things online again.

Di Chenxiao looked at the information in front of him. The information showed that Shi Xi had lived with her maternal grandmother since childhood, grew up in the countryside, suffered from heart disease, was timid and afraid of trouble, afraid of seeing people, and afraid of talking to people. She was very different from the person she was today.
Would a shy person stop a car with a gleam in their eyes?
His eyes gradually deepened, and then filled with a smile. "Xixi, you're finally back. I'm so glad I waited for you."
