nThe cannon fodder girl looked at Shi Xi, then at Ning Yu, and then at Shi Xi. “She’s your sister?”

n

nShi Xi gave a vague introduction. “Yes, she’s my parents’ biological daughter, Ning Yu. This is my friend, Tao Yuxuan.”

n

nThe cannon fodder girl’s name was Tao Yuxuan. Her family sold electrical appliances and had a little money in Feng City.

n

nTao Yuxuan sized up Ning Yu and said in a mysterious tone, “So, you’re the Ning Yu who flew up to become a phoenix.”

n

nShi Xi corrected her, “Even if she doesn’t fly, she’s still a phoenix. Don’t look for trouble with her.”

n

nShi Xi was kind enough to advise the original owner, this friend of the cannon fodder.

n

nWhat good ending could there be if she went against the female protagonist?

n

nTao Yuxuan felt even more heartache for Shi Xi. “Did the Shi Family spoil her and stop doting on you after she came back?”

n

nShi Xi: “?”

n

nTao Yuxuan gritted her teeth and said, “I heard that you were chased out of the Shi Family the moment she came back! Yesterday, you were even trending on the Internet. Did she get someone to do it?”

n

n“What are you thinking about?” Shi Xi felt a headache coming on. She pulled Tao Yuxuan and said, “Stop talking.”

n

nNing Yu saw the two of them exchanging words and could not be bothered with them. She walked away.

n

nThe shop assistant had already wrapped up the clothes and handed them to Shi Xi.

n

nShi Xi took back her phone. “Give her the clothes.”

n

nNing Yu said calmly, “You bought these. I don’t want them.”

n

nAfter saying that, she left the shop.

n

nTao Yuxuan became even angrier. “What is she trying to pull?! You were kind enough to buy her clothes, but she still doesn’t want them? Does she really think that she’s a rich young lady?”

n

nShi Xi had a headache.

n

nWhat the h*ll was this?

n

nThe female lead probably thought that she was up to no good and decided to play the good cop, bad cop with Tao Yuxuan.

n

n“No matter what, she’s still the daughter of the Shi Family, which means she’s half my sister,” Shi Xi said sternly. “Don’t say such things in front of her in the future!”

n

nTao Yuxuan looked at Shi Xi’s expression and said in pain, “She stole your things, and you’re still defending her! You’re just too kind, that’s why you’ve been bullied all this time.”

n

nShi Xi: …I can’t explain it.

n

nShe seemed to be even whiter than the original owner.

n

n“Alright, alright. Just don’t look for her in the future.” Shi Xi looked at the time. “Shall we continue shopping?”

n

n“Why are we still shopping? I’m not in the mood.” Tao Yuxuan said, “I’ll call out all my friends. Shall we go sing together?”

n

nShi Xi: “No, I have an appointment tonight.”

n

nTao Yuxuan looked at the bag in Shi Xi’s hand and a knowing smile appeared on her face. “Is it for Sheng Yan?”

n

nShi Xi said, “No.”

n

nTao Yuxuan thought that she was shy and blinked. “Aiya, since it’s a meal with Sheng Yan, I won’t disturb you. Make the most of it!”

n

nShi Xi said, “Then I’ll be leaving first.”

n

nTao Yuxuan waved her hand. “Bye bye.”

n

nThe shop assistant went forward hesitantly. “Miss Shi, this dress…”

n

nShi Xi asked the shop assistant to pass the dress to Ning Yu, but Ning Yu did not accept it.

n

n“Give it to me.” Shi Xi took the dress with a heavy heart.

n

nDid she offend the female lead, or did she not offend the female lead?

n

nWhat was more serious was that she still had to go meet Xie Yunzhou.

n

nWhen she thought of meeting the male lead Sheng Yan’s parents the next day, Shi Xi’s footsteps became heavy.

n

nWas the plot so tight?!

n

nShi Xi carried the paper bag and arrived at Qingshui Restaurant.

n

nXie Yunzhou had yet to arrive at Qingshui Restaurant, so Shi Xi ordered a few dishes according to her preferences and waited for someone.

n

nNot long after, Xie Yunzhou arrived.

n

nShi Xi handed over the bag in her hand. “This is for your clothes.”

n

nXie Yunzhou recalled how Shi Xi had dirtied his pants that day.

n

nBut why were there two bags?

n

nShi Xi said embarrassedly, “Besides your pants, I also picked out a belt for you as an apology.”
