Translator: 549690339

At night, when it was time to go back, Chi Yi refused to leave the old mansion.

Chi zuxu did not insist.

Before she left, granny Chi reminded Chi zuxu, have fun with Xixi. Ill go and comfort Xiao si later. Dont worry.

Chi zuxu did not reply and swiftly drove Hu Qianxi out of the Chi familys old residence.

Chi Yi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor and watched as the black Bentley drove out of her sight. She stomped her feet in anger and grabbed the curtains.Hua -, she pulled them shut and simply left the sight behind.

Chi Yi did not leave the room again after that.

Whether it was the old lady calling at the door or the old master coming over to stand outside and say good things to her, she just stayed in bed and did not move, not even responding.

An hour later, Chi zuxus car drove back into the residence.

The moment she heard the familiar sound of the engine, she jumped out of bed and ran to the floor-to-ceiling window to take a look. Her eyes lit up in the next moment.

Hes back!

The old lady was surprised to see her reply. whats going on? Didnt he go to play with Xixi? Why did you come back so quickly?

Mom, Im here to pick up Xiao si er,

Chi zuxu raised his head and glanced at the second floor.

He saw Chi Yi standing in the corridor on the second floor, looking down at him with her big, watery eyes.

Didnt Xiao si er not return? The old lady said.

She still has to go to cla.s.s tomorrow. Chi zuxu replied in a roundabout manner.

Why dont you get old Li to send her bag to school tomorrow?

Come down!

Chi zuxu ignored his mothers words and gave his order to his niece upstairs.

Chi Yi paused for a moment before she turned around and obediently walked down the stairs.

Xiao si er, if you dont want to go back, then we wont go back! Look at how aggrieved this girl is. Zuxu, did you reprimand her at home again? The old ladys heart ached for her granddaughter, afraid that she had been reprimanded by Chi zuxu.

Grandma, Ill go back. Chi Yi spoke, but she did not look at her uncle.

Sincerely? Dont be afraid of your uncle, you still have your grandmother to back you up!

Mom, well be leaving first.

With that, he pulled Chi Yis hand and left the Chi family home.

Chi Yi did not say a word along the way. Her face was turned away the entire time as she expressionlessly watched the nightscape that sped past outside the window.

Chi zuxu did not speak to her either.

The atmosphere in the car was a little depressing, but it was clear that no one had any intention of breaking the deadlock.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the villa.

Chi Yi pushed open the car door and got out of the car. Without even looking at the man behind her, she jogged into the villa, ran upstairs, and entered her room. Then, she locked the door and locked herself up.

Whats wrong? Are you throwing a tantrum again?

Aunt Chen asked the man worriedly.

Chi zuxu did not reply. He changed his shoes, loosened the tie around his neck in frustration, and went up to the second floor with heavy steps.

Aunt Chen could tell that the two of them did not seem to be in a good mood.

Deep in the night

It was close to midnight and everyone in the house was asleep. Chi Yi was woken up by her own coughing.

She lifted the blanket, got out of bed, and prepared to go to the first floor to pour herself a gla.s.s of water.

She had just reached the living room on the first floor when she accidentally b.u.mped into Chi zuxu, who was still seated on the sofa and playing with his phone.
