"I'm not eating! Get out! All of you, get out!"
The sound of porcelain hitting the ground was followed by a loud crash as the door slammed shut.
Ye Sinian's fingers, resting on the table, slowly tightened, and the coldness in his eyes almost overflowed.
He walked upstairs with a cold face, and when he reached Ye Chuyue's door, he kicked it open.
The loud noise startled Ye Chuyue, who was hiding under the covers.
She looked up and saw Ye Sinian standing at the door with a gloomy expression, his eyes, which seemed to be filled with ice, staring straight at her.
Ye Chuyue trembled inexplicably, but she still stubbornly held her neck and met his gaze.
Are you going to eat or not?
His deep voice carried suppressed anger, and even the surrounding air seemed to turn cold in an instant.
Ye Chuyue bit her lower lip tightly to keep her tears from falling.
She stubbornly met Ye Sinian's gaze, remaining silent with her lips pursed.
Ye Sinian slammed his fist on the desk, the loud noise startling Gu Baiwei, who had followed him over.
"You don't want to eat it, huh? Fine, very well then you can't eat it anymore!"
After saying that, he kicked over the chair next to him in frustration, turned around and strode towards the door.
Ye Chuyue trembled at the noise, and tears welled up in her eyes and burst forth instantly: "Ye Sinian, I hate you! You don't care about me at all! You only bully me!"
Ye Sinian stopped in his tracks, turned around and looked at her, his eyes filled with anger and disappointment: "Ye Chuyue, don't I care about you? Who am I working so hard for every day?"
Veins bulged on his forehead, his chest heaved violently, and each breath seemed to be an effort to suppress the rage about to erupt from his chest.
After his parents died, he took on all the responsibilities of the family, forcing himself to grow up as quickly as possible and never daring to relax for a moment, all for the sake of protecting the family and his only sister.
"You don't understand me at all!"
Ye Chuyue cried even harder. The girl, who was usually like a fighting rooster outside, now let go of all her sharp edges and cried her whole body trembling.
Ye Sinian was annoyed by the crying, so he strode to the bedside, grabbed her arm, and pulled it, hurting Ye Chuyue despite his efforts to control himself: "Enough, stop crying!"
A sigh sounded in his ear, and Gu Baiwei reached out and gently patted the back of his hand: "Niannian, calm down first."
Ye Sinian froze for a moment, his gaze sweeping coldly over her hand on the back of his, before releasing Ye Chuyue without a word.
Gu Baiwei turned to look at her daughter, who was curled up on the bed with red eyes, and felt a pang of pain in her heart. When she died, her daughter was the one she couldn't let go of the most.
She was only a few months old then, barely able to sit up, and now she's grown up so much. Thinking about this makes my eyes well up with tears.
She gently sat down on the edge of the bed, took her hand, and, noticing her resistance, softly comforted her, "Yueyue, don't cry. If you cry again, you'll turn into a little kitten and won't be pretty anymore."
"Who do you think you are, interfering in our family affairs!"
Ye Chuyue wiped away her tears, roughly shook off her hand, and her still slightly chubby face was full of disgust.
Ye Sinian is rich and handsome, and countless women are scheming to get close to him. Ye Chuyue naturally regarded Gu Baiwei as one of them and naturally did not give her a good look.
Gu Baiwei was speechless after hearing her words and didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at Ye Sinian for help, but when their eyes met, he just looked away expressionlessly, clearly not intending to help her.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely awkward. Gu Baiwei thought of the original plot, in which Ye Chuyue developed an obsession because of the warmth given to her by the female lead, and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
She took a deep breath, squatted down, and looked up to meet Ye Chuyue's gaze on the bed.
The moment Ye Chuyue saw that face, she stiffened. Then, as if she had realized something, she sneered, "You do have some tricks up your sleeve. You got plastic surgery to look like my mother, planning to use this face to seduce my brother? You've got your hopes up. Someone as cold-hearted as my brother won't be moved by your face."
Gu Baiwei ignored the sarcasm in her words and smiled gently: "Yueyue, don't worry, I'm not here to take your brother away, I just want to have a good talk with you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chuyue snorted coldly and turned her head away: "Whatever your relationship is is none of my business."
"Yueyue, your brother really cares about you, but he doesn't know how to express it."
As soon as Gu Baiwei said this, the two people in the room exchanged a glance, snorted coldly, and turned their heads away.
"Who cares about her!"
"I don't need his concern!"
She sighed helplessly and tentatively took Ye Chuyue's hand: "Don't wait until you lose something to regret it. I once lost the two most important people in my life because of my own willfulness. I don't want you to be like me and regret it after losing them..."
In the original book, her two children developed a rift because of the female protagonist, and they even disliked each other, eventually reaching the point of irreconcilable differences.
Given a second chance at life, she would never stand by and watch such a thing happen again.
“In this world, we will meet many people, but those who truly care about you are rare and hard to find. Although your brother is a bit cold-hearted, he is genuinely good to you. Look, what in this room wasn't carefully prepared for you by your brother? Whatever you want, when has your brother not given it to you…”
Her voice was soft yet firm, as if it possessed a certain magic that could instantly calm people down.
Ye Chuyue looked down at her, remaining silent.
"Let's go downstairs and eat together, it'll get cold soon."
Gu Baiwei smiled and extended her hand to her. Ye Chuyue glanced at Ye Sinian beside her, bit her lip, and remained silent.
"Niannian, tell your sister to come down for dinner. I'm going down first, I'm starving."
Gu Baiwei stood up with a smile. As she passed Ye Sinian, she stood on tiptoe and patted him on the shoulder. Honestly, why is this brat so tall?
As she came downstairs, Aunt Liu was pacing around like a headless fly. Seeing her come down, she hurriedly came up to her: "Miss Gu, are the young master and young lady here?"
"Aunt Liu, reheat the food and add another set of chopsticks and bowls. Miss will be coming down to eat with us in a bit."
Gu Baiwei knew what she wanted to ask and answered with a smile.
A look of joy appeared on Liu Ma's face, and she immediately agreed to heat up the food.
By the time the food was reheated, the brother and sister were already sitting silently at the table.
Gu Baiwei coughed lightly and picked up her chopsticks first: "Come on, have a taste."
Before he could finish speaking, the doorbell rang.
Gu Baiwei paused in her actions, her face filled with despair. When would this ever end? She just wanted to eat in peace, why was it so difficult?
