Chapter 18: (1/2)

Zhong Xiyou went to play basketball with his friends in school during the day. When it was dark, he went home sweating with a basketball. He went to the kitchen to fill a glass of ice water. Seeing Zhong Youyou and Meng Shixuan were not at home. , Haven’t realized what’s wrong.

After all, on weekends, Meng Shixuan would go to the library for self-study, while Zhong Youyou and her group of fox friends...

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiyou sighed. He felt that when the second sister came back, it was necessary to persuade her to stop mixing with the group of friends in the vocational high school.

Of course, Zhong Xiyou from the previous life didn't even want to know Zhong Youyou in the past. He just took a detour when he saw her, and was disgusted. Why did he want to explore the deep-seated reasons of Zhong Youyou's rebellious behavior in the past.

After rebirth, his eyes fell on Zhong Youyou for a long time, and then he realized with hindsight why the second sister would play with that group of high school gangsters.

...Because I was so lonely.

Three years ago, she was brought back by Zhong's father from Meng Qian, like a small dumpling that suddenly broke into the big city, incompatible with everything around her. But before she could blend in, she was stuffed into the new aristocratic middle school. At that time, she was only given a card and a string of passwords, and no one even took her to buy some clothes suitable for the city...

Back home, they and their parents treated her coldly...

Therefore, she can only find a sense of belonging and become friends with those gangsters who also can't find a sense of existence.

Zhong Xiyou felt a little uncomfortable thinking of this.

He even regretted that he went out to play basketball today. He should stay at home with the second sister, see what she wants to do, and do what she wants to do with her. She has no friends, he can take her slowly into school.

He sat down on the sofa and didn't even bother to go back to the room to play games. He just pressed the remote control and waited absently for Zhong Youyou to return.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, there was a sound of a car stopping outside. He stood up immediately and opened the door excitedly: ”Second sister, are you back?”

It turned out that Meng Shixuan got out of the car, with big bags, and it seemed that she had gone shopping. The excitement on his face suddenly disappeared, and he gave Meng Shixuan a lukewarm look before returning to the living room to wait.

”Xi...” Before Meng Shixuan's words were finished, Zhong Xiyou had already left, and the smile on her face was also frozen.

She obviously felt that the attitudes of her parents and younger brothers toward them had changed 180 degrees in the past two days, from loving and spoiling her, to the level of being very impatient with her, and even faintly disgusted. She didn't understand what was going on, but she knew that something must have happened, or something related to Zhong Youyou, that made their impression of herself worse.

That being the case, she tried to please them and eliminate their bad impression of herself.

Meng Shixuan took a deep breath, put a warm smile on her face again, and walked in with the bag.

She didn’t believe it at all. There was a fifteen-year relationship between Zhong's family and herself. During the fifteen years before Zhong Youyou appeared, she was their relatives. So many years of sleeping together and asking for warmth, how could it be that Misunderstandings have disappeared since then?

”Xiyou, look at this, the latest model.” Meng Shixuan took out the game console.

She knows Zhong Xiyou no more. She is sluggish and cool in plain fashion and looks like a stranger. She is actually a little boy who is addicted to games. He has no scheming and is the one who can't hide his thoughts. Starting from him, perhaps you can know why parents' attitudes have changed all in one day.

It really is the latest model.

As soon as Zhong Xiyou's eyes fell on that cool red remote control, his eyes straightened.

But he was very clear about Meng Shixuan’s purpose... I don’t know why, if the second sister sent him this new game console, he would be so happy to fly, but it was Meng Shixuan who gave him his enthusiasm. Discounted. Meng Shixuan understands the preferences and personalities of everyone in the family, and has always been Zhong's intimate little padded jacket. After she comes to please herself, she will definitely please Zhong's mother...

If you still don't stick to the camp and stand on the side of the second sister, what if your parents are fooled by her again?

Zhong Xiyou's expression changed, and finally stood up coldly, and sat aside: ”What are you doing to prepare a gift for me? It's not a birthday or a holiday.”

Meng Shixuan smiled: ”I touched the gift you wanted to give last time and made you unhappy? My sister specially bought your favorite game console, a new one. You can try it. If it's not fun, don't play it.”

Even the arc of her smile at the corner of her mouth was in place. Seeing Zhong Xiyou's eyes kept falling on the game console, she knew in her heart that this younger brother had softened a bit, so she picked up the game console and passed it over.

Unexpectedly, Zhong Xiyou lifted his hand and directly pushed the game console back coldly.

”Then have you prepared any gifts for the second sister?” Zhong Xiyou looked cold and raised her eyes and stared at her: ”The last time I gave the gift to the second sister, you opened it without authorization. If you want to apologize, you should buy it. Apologize for the gift to the second sister?”

The corners of Meng Shixuan's mouth were completely stiff: ”...”

As if she was thrown a basin of cold water on her head without mercy, she said in embarrassment for a long time: ”Long time, I'm also ready, and I will give it to her when she comes back.”

”Really?” Did not buy a gift for the second sister at all.

Zhong Xiyou gave her a mocking look and left.

After rebirth, he really saw many things, such as Meng Shixuan's hypocrisy. She treats herself well, but she is purposeful. What if she has no use value? He couldn't help but think of the scene in the car accident. Yes, if there is no use value, she will forget the feelings of 15 years and leave herself in danger.

She wears a mask like this, it is really easy to get along with, but it is far less real than the second sister who is covered in thorns.

...

Meng Shixuan sat on the sofa, almost squeezed the box of the game console, her fingers turned white, and her drooping eyes passed a gloom that was completely inconsistent with her gentle and generous appearance.

Why is she so low-pitched, Zhong Xiyou still has this attitude? He obviously likes that game console, but can he hold it back for Zhong Youyou?

The hour hand turned to half past nine, and Zhong Youyou hadn't returned yet, and Zhong Xiyou was starting to feel a little bit unable to sit still. It was true that the second sister had lessons from the past, and she didn't come back drunk until midnight, so he was afraid that she would do the same today, and then he would be criticized by Zhong's father. So without holding back, he took the initiative to call Zhong Youyou.

Not connected, not only missed, but also hung up.

Zhong Xiyou: ”...”

At this moment, Zhong Youyou is here. She finally left Zhong's house and lived alone in such a large apartment. She laughed from ear to ear, and she was so refreshed that she did a set of radio gymnastics on the bed! Seeing Zhong Xiyou's call, I hung up without thinking.

That's great! Before wearing the book, she was an orphan. She lived in a small house with her best friends. She didn’t have any money to eat. She often ordered a hot pot only after receiving the prize from the competition. She didn’t dare to order more ingredients for fear of exceeding the budget. , But now...

She turned on the TV and lay down on the sofa blatantly. She couldn't help but began to be greedy.

Qin Yao said that public security in this place is very good at night, and Zhong Youyou is not afraid, putting on his trousers, pulling on his slippers and going downstairs. There is a snack street around it, which is quite prosperous. This is exactly the time when the street is full of people, and there are stinky tofu skewers.

Zhong Youyou's eyes shine!

Sure enough, I still have to eat these to be grounded, so that my belly grows greedy. When I eat those light abalone and chicken wings at Zhong's house, she has no appetite at all, and now she is about to starve to death.

She ordered a lot and picked a small shop near the window to sit down and eat.

When the mouth was full of oil, he smashed his mouth, feeling a bit lonely alone, not forgetting to take a few selfies, and sent them to Qin Yao.

She didn't know that Zhong's father and Zhong's mother had also finished their business talks, and came back exhausted from the banquet, but not long after sitting down, she learned that Zhong Youyou hadn't returned home for most of the night, and Zhong's family almost Upset the sky.

”Why haven't you come back?” Father Zhong’s first reaction was the same as that of Zhong Xiyou. Zhong Youyou, 80% of the time, went to a drunkard with her group of gangster friends, and the blue veins on her forehead jumped, feeling that the child was really worried: ”Give her a call and ask her to hurry back, how dangerous it is to be outside so late!”

Zhong Xiyou handed the phone over: ”I have called it many times, and it was all knocked off by my sister.”

His face was a bit ugly, and he didn't know whether to say: ”Steward, you say.”

The housekeeper also wiped his sweat and said: ”The young master of the Qin family came today and helped the second lady move some things. At that time, the people were eating, and they didn't notice what was moved. Maybe...”
