Chapter 693: How to Interact with a Sister?

At this point, it was unfeasible for Su Ruowan to get to Shen Xi. Shen Xi was a pain in her ass, so was the Su family. So long as one member of the Su family remained alive on earth, Su Ruowan would always have to look over her shoulder.

Su Ruowan saw the push notification on Weibo. Su Yi died in a car crash. His death was not worth the mention, but why did Su Muyan not die with him? What was she to do if he were to come after her?

With that in mind, Su Ruowan held her phone in terror as she dialed a number and muttered, “I can promise you a million yuan, but you have to move fast. I want to see Su Muyan’s dead body by morning. Otherwise, I won’t give you a penny.”

Shen Xi was out of the woods for now as the Fu family had her back. Hence, Su Ruowan had no choice but to deal with the Su family first. Su Yi was dead and Su Muxuan was facing the death penalty for his murder charges, while Su Mushi was a dead man walking. He would not survive for long even if Su Ruowan left him alone.

As for Li Jingran, she had already lost her mind. A madwoman in the throes of insanity lived a life worse than death. Su Ruowan could write Li Jingran off her kill list.

Half an hour later, Su Ruowan was gritting her teeth menacingly at trending news about Shen Xi when four men in black barged into her room and put something over her head, mouth, and nose without warning. She went blank and soon lost consciousness.

The snow grew heavy outside as the sky darkened.

The campus grounds of Capital University became lively as students got off their classes. Many students took pictures and fooled around in the snow.

At the girls’ No. 6 apartment building, the lady in charge of the dormitory watched as a handsome young man registered his details and occupant’s information before entering the building and disappearing into the stairway. She then took a glance at the registration form.

This was the third person here for Shen Xi. She knew that Shen Xi in this dormitory was the one going viral online. Shen Xi was an impressive girl with many identities to her name.

The dean had personally given the lady a call, instructing her not to tell anyone that Shen Xi had returned to school. Those who came looking for Shen Xi could simply be registered and let in.

In the dormitory, Shen Xi gazed at two good-looking men of distinctive miens on the sofa. They were Fu Qingli and Yu Yuan, who had just arrived. Without giving Fu Qingli any attention, she turned to Yu Yuanxi. “Brother, why don’t we go home?”

“Mom and Dad said it’s dangerous to stay at home.” Yu Yuanxi looked at her earnestly before glancing at Fu Qingli. “Your eldest brother said your parents are on their way. Let’s wait a little longer.”

“Fine.” Shen Xi was put in a spot. Afraid to be a bother, Jiang Xuanxuan and Yan Xiaoxiao excused themselves to study in the study hall for the upcoming term examination when Fu Qingli came over.

Silence befell the room following the brief exchange. There was a weird tension in the air.

Since Shen Xi had no idea how to break the silence, she occupied herself with the phone by sending a text message to Li Yuan.

Yu Yuanxi was not a man of many words. Sitting with his back straight, he flipped through a book.

Doing nothing at all, Fu Qingli quietly sat there while his eyes were fixed outside the window. By the corner of his eyes, he would steal a glance at Shen Xi every now and then.

What should he say? What should he say? As a brother, how should he communicate with his sister? He had no experience in this sort of situation. It never occurred to him that his relationship with his sister would come to a standstill.

After much thought, he whipped out his phone and typed on the search engine. “How to interact with a sister?”

The replies that followed were a colorful variety. The comment with the most likes was giving the sister a lot of attention and showing patience even when she was all over the OP.

Fu Qingli furrowed his brows. This question was harder than a billion-dollar business deal. Her being all over him? Would he need to ask the question if she was all over him?

He scrolled down for more answers, but none suited his current predicament. These people, who complained that their sisters whine for attention, were blatantly showing off!

Shen Xi paid no notice to Fu Qingli as she was busy doing her own thing.

Yu Yuanxi would keep an eye on Fu Qingli periodically. In the beginning, Yu Yuanxi tried to make Fu Qingli at home by smiling warmly and making small talk.

However, there really was nothing much to say. In addition, Fu Qingli’s imposing presence put quite the pressure on Yu Yuanxi. Yu Yuanxi later gave up on initiating any conversation.

It did not take long before Yu Yuanxi realized that Fu Qingli was focused on something. Although the latter maintained a blank face, his eyes were ever-changing. Fu Qingli even peeped at Xixi.

As the trio sat in silence, awkwardness filled the air until there was another knock on the door. Then came Shen Zhangqing’s voice. “Xixi, Xixi. It’s Dad.”

Shen Xi had not had the chance to get up and open the door.

Yu Yuanxi was a step ahead as he bolted to open the door. Looking around the corridor warrily, Yu Yuanxi asked Shen Zhangqing to come in. “Dad, when is Mom coming back?”

“Your mom’s on the flight now. It’s going to take some time.” Without looking at Yu Yuanxi, Shen Zhangqing only had eyes for Shen Xi. He drew close and stood before her for a while, quivering in the lips at a loss for words.

Lifting her head, Shen Xi felt a lump in her throat to meet Shen Zhangqing’s teary eyes. She reached out her hand with a smile. “Old Shen, what good food did you bring me this time?”

Shen Zhangqing came empty-handed, also forgetting his own bag. Following her words, he fished out a toffee from his pocket. The smile on her face broke his last defense as tears began to flow down his cheeks.

Shen Xi extended her arms to hug him while lifting her eyes to meet his. “Old Shen, why are you crying?”

Shen Zhangqing wiped away his tears, but his tear ducts only produced more. For a man his age, Shen Zhangqing had never cried in front of anybody. Yet now, he was wailing in front of his daughter. There was no stopping the tears. The more he wiped, the more tears came out.

Standing up, Shen Xi unwrapped a toffee and stuffed it in his mouth before wiping away his tears. “Don’t cry, Old Shen. I’m going to cry if you cry.”

“I’ll stop. I’m just so happy,” Shen Zhangqing immediately said. With candy in his mouth, his speech was barely audible. “Look at me all happy. A lot more people will dote on you from now on.”

It was better this way. His darling daughter was not a member of the Su family, but the Fu family. It could not be better. He should be happy.. The Su animals did not deserve his darling daughter.
