Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Encounter with Annoying Person
Xia Chuyi was moved by Aunt Xia’s words.
“Uncle, Aunt…” she softly called, her eyes slightly red.
Seeing her like this, Aunt Xia’s eyes also reddened slightly as she said, “You child, why have you been so lancholy and sensitive lately? Always with reddened eyes? You really inherited that from your mom!”
She teased her to lighten the mood.
Xia Chuyi broke into a smile.
In her heart, she sighed, truthfully, she didn’t know why!
...
Ever since she had co back to life, facing Huo Shiqian and her uncle and aunt, she found it easy to feel younger, as if she had really returned to being eighteen.
Perhaps because, in front of them, she could temporarily forget those unbearable parts of her past, returning to a relaxed state, the deanor of her eighteen-year-old self showing naturally.
“Alright, Uncle, Aunt, let’s not talk about this,” she managed her emotions and smiled, addressing the two, “Regarding marriage, I have my own plans.”
“Rest assured, I won’t aim too high without basis. To see far, one must stand high.”
“If I can’t stand high, then the view from the hill is also quite beautiful.”
Xia Chuyi spoke each word clearly and firmly.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia fell silent and then burst into laughter, “You child, your speech is so amusing, just like sothing out of a TV show, haha.”
“Uncle, you’re making fun of !” Xia Chuyi protested persistently.
Laughter echoed throughout the room.
Many things were tacitly understood by everyone.
When she returned to her room, Xia Chuyi entered her space and prepared dicinal food to feed the little ones, then took out the textbooks she needed to review.
Opening the book, she found herself unable to concentrate at first.
She pondered the earlier conversation.
Actually, on closer examination, Uncle Xia’s thoughts were the sa as hers deep inside.
Wasn’t the reason she and Huo Shiqian had agreed on a two-year period also to have enough ti for buffering?
With her present status to marry Huo Shiqian, she was destined to be seen as a parasitic plant, dependent on him.
That was not what she wanted to see.
She had not co back to life to beco dependent on anyone, much less to be a fragile parasitic plant relying on soone else to survive.
She was Xia Chuyi, her destiny should be in her own hands.
Having figured out these points, she quickly dismissed these thoughts and imrsed herself in studying.
Changing her destiny always began with action.
The next morning, as Xia Chuyi was on her routine jog, she encountered an unexpected visitor.
This ti, it was Xia i.
Interestingly, did the Xia Family agree to bother her one after another?
“Hey, about the job you said you’d help find, why hasn’t your uncle done anything yet?” Xia i extended her hands around her, looking up with arrogance and asked her.
Xia Chuyi, long immune to Xia i’s brazen attitude, calmly shook her head and responded, “What’s the rush? It’ll be arranged eventually.”
“How can I not be in a hurry? Xia Lan that wretch has found a good match, you’ve moved to your uncle’s house to enjoy good fortune, and I’m the only one left wasting ti at ho! Xia Chuyi, are you doing this on purpose?” As soon as she heard her reply, Xia i imdiately complained indignantly.
“I’m telling you, don’t think you can deny it—you signed it in black and white.” Xia i stepped forward, pointing at her nose, “If you don’t find a job by the year’s end, I’ll tell everyone that you’re not trustworthy! Humph.”
Xia i had a look of righteous indignation.
She was really brainless, spreading around that she wasn’t helping find a job or keeping promises? Why not consider people might ask, why should your sister have to find you a job in the first place, by what right?
