The Female Villain Lost Her Memory After Rebirth - Chapter 229
Ye Jin silently put down his phone and pondered for a moment before turning to look at Xu Yan. “Yan Yan, your sister really loves you.”
Xu Yan couldn’t help but laugh. She was about to say something when her phone chimed a few times.
She held her wine glass in one hand and took out her phone with the other to check it.
“Yan Yan, I almost forgot to tell you, I just sent you a little gift. Be careful when you pick up the package, don’t let Ye Jin find out, or he’ll confiscate all the snacks inside.” Xu Yan accidentally opened the voice message, and Liu Lingxiao’s voice came through loud and clear.
Xu Yan blinked her eyes and obediently replied with a voice message: “Okay, sister, I got it!”
Ye Jin reached out and pinched Xu Yan’s cheeks. “Okay?”
Xu Yan frowned and tried to swat Ye Jin’s hand away. “Ow! Don’t pinch my face! Hmph! I’m going to tell my sister you’re bullying me!”
Ye Jin tapped her forehead. “Liu Lingxiao eats junk food all the time herself. Don’t learn from her!”
Xu Yan glanced at him and said angrily, “I want to eat it, I want to eat it, I want to eat it!”
Ye Jin: “…” This little troublemaker!
Zhao Xinze held back his laughter and pretended to be serious. “It’s okay to eat a little occasionally. We can’t suppress children’s natural instincts.”
Ye Jin felt a bit of a headache. “The problem is she wants to eat that junk food for three meals a day!”
Zhao Xinze immediately changed his tune. “That won’t do. This bad habit must be corrected.”
Ye Jin poked the little girl’s face. “Did you hear that?”
Xu Yan reluctantly agreed. “Fine!”
Mu Heng also had a faint smile on his face. Seeing that Xu Yan had calmed down, he couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Ye, what did that lady mean earlier when she said we would encounter trouble during this time?”
This was a serious matter, so Ye Jin became a bit more serious too. “Although my sister can be unreliable at times, her fortune-telling is absolutely the most accurate. Maybe someone is secretly watching you. It would be better for you to stay at my place for the next few days. There are guest rooms above the bar. At least, no one dares to cause trouble on my turf.”
Xu Yan chimed in, nodding. “That’s right! My sister is super, super awesome!”
Ye Jin glared at her. “Why doesn’t Yan Yan say I’m super awesome?”
Xu Yan hesitated, twisting shyly. “Because… I think my sister is more awesome~”
Ye Jin: “…Oh!”
How annoying! He should have sent Liu Lingxiao away back then!
Zhao Xinze was amused by this little couple. He leaned towards Xu Yan. “Little one, do you want to go to the mall? I’ll treat you to something delicious.”
Xu Yan emphasized for the umpteenth time: “I’m not a little kid, you know.”
Zhao Xinze nodded. “Alright, little one.”
Xu Yan: “…”
She couldn’t be bothered to argue with them anymore. “But I don’t want to go out again today.”
“You’re so lazy! What can you do besides eating?” A tall man walked in carrying a bunch of things, talking as he entered.
Xu Yan looked up in confusion, then her eyes suddenly lit up. “Brother!”
At her call, both Zhao Xinze and Mu Heng’s hearts skipped a beat. They looked towards the door and saw a man who bore some resemblance to Xu Yan walk in.
Xu Mo piled everything on the table. “Xu Little Yan, what are you wearing now? Why does it look so similar to what Ye Jin is wearing? Don’t tell me it’s some stupid couple outfit?”
Xu Yan pouted. “Brother, could it be that you can’t find a girlfriend, so you can’t stand seeing us as a couple?”
Xu Mo was extremely confident. “Can’t find a girlfriend? Xu Little Yan, there are plenty of girls who want to be your sister-in-law.”
Ye Jin smiled gently. “Having high standards is a good thing, but not everyone with high standards can be as lucky as I am.”
It took Xu Mo a while to catch on. “You’re not cursing me to never find a girlfriend, are you?”
Ye Jin kept a straight face. “No, to be precise, it’s not a curse, but a friendly reminder.”
Xu Mo rolled his eyes. “Well, thank you very much.”
He casually pulled out a chair and sat down between Zhao Xinze and Mu Heng, completely oblivious.
Xu Yan frowned and scolded him. “Brother, don’t sit there!”
Xu Mo looked hurt. “Xu Little Yan, do you have no conscience? I came all this way to bring you snacks, and you won’t even let me sit?”
Ye Jin coughed. “Um, it’s not that we won’t let you sit, it’s just that you shouldn’t sit between the couple.”
Xu Mo was stunned. He looked blankly at Zhao Xinze and Mu Heng on either side, then belatedly jumped up. “Sorry, I was annoyed by my sister and didn’t notice. My apologies.”
Xu Yan was full of question marks. “How is it my fault again?”
Xu Mo was quite surprised. “Oh, you actually noticed this time?”
Xu Yan: “…”
Are you being polite? Are you being polite? Are you being polite?!
Mu Heng didn’t say anything, but everyone could see that he was in a good mood.
Zhao Xinze spoke up first. “You all are really great.”
Xu Mo pulled over another chair and sat down nearby, munching on an apple. “What? How are we great?”
Mu Heng smiled self-deprecatingly. “Being able to treat everyone equally, isn’t that great enough?”
Xu Mo thought about it and understood. They probably encountered too many sneers and mockery when they were together, so now facing his normal attitude, they felt happy.
Xu Mo waved his hand. He didn’t say much, just poured himself a glass of wine and raised a toast to the two of them.
Xu Yan also slowly realized and stood up to make a toast. “Everyone is great. You’ll definitely be fine in the future.”
Seeing his sister raise a toast, Xu Mo was about to drink it for her, but then he saw her tilt her head back and down the entire glass of wine herself.
He was stunned. “Xu Yan! Since when did you start drinking?”
Ye Jin put an arm around Xu Yan. “These are all fruit wines, low in alcohol content. It’s fine to drink a little.”
Xu Mo snorted coldly. “You just keep spoiling her. She’ll end up turning your house upside down sooner or later.”
Xu Yan looked up at Ye Jin with a pitiful expression. “My brother is slandering me again.”
Ye Jin was utterly righteous. “We’ll ignore him. We won’t bother with a single dog.”
Xu Yan nodded vigorously. “Mm-hmm!”
Xu Mo: “…”
He had never been so speechless before!
As Zhao Xinze and Mu Heng watched the three of them banter and joke around, the exceptionally warm atmosphere made them feel more relaxed than ever before.
Since Xu Mo was the only single person among the five, everyone tacitly agreed to assign all the errand-running tasks to him.
Xu Mo couldn’t be bothered to argue with this group, so of course, he chose to order takeout directly!
He flipped through his phone back and forth, then said, “Yan Yan, I’ve ordered all the snacks you like. They should be delivered after dinner.”
Xu Yan, holding Ye Jin’s phone and fiddling with something, nodded without looking up, “Got it!”
Xu Mo rested his face on his hand and continued looking at his phone, “Alright, then after dinner, you’ll come home with me.”
Xu Yan paused for a moment, finally raising her head to think seriously, “Okay.”Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏(.)com
After all, she had only just officially gotten together with Ye Jin, so staying overnight seemed a bit too brazen.
