Chapter 236: Chapter 236: inexplicably nostalgic
Although Xu Yuchu was a member of the Xu family, she had treated him as her younger brother during this period of time and had protected him without any reason.
If he was still wholeheartedly loyal to Xu Yue, how could she accept this fact?
After learning the truth, Xu Wanwan’s mood became even heavier.
She silently made a copy of the test report and did not want to find trouble with Xu Yue for the time being.
If Xu Yue came looking for her in the future, she could still use this evidence to slap her in the face.
But on Xu Yuchu’s side, she had to confirm which side he was on.
After school, Xu Wanwan went straight to the rented house near No. 1 High School.
Xu Yuchu opened the door and the moment he saw Xu Wanwan, he smiled gently. “SIS, why are you here?”
Xu Wanwan looked at him with a complicated look in her eyes. She turned sideways and entered the house.
She really did not dare to imagine that such a gentle and harmless young man would put a bug in her schoolbag.
The two of them sat on the sofa. Xu Yuchu quietly poured water for Xu Wanwan. “Sister, why are you here this time?”
Xu Wanwan picked up the cup and sipped a few mouthfuls of water to moisten her throat.
After a long while, she slowly said, “Yuchu, in your heart, what do you think of me as your elder sister?”
Xu Yuchu was stunned.
The youth lowered his head slightly. His voice was very soft, but his tone was very serious. “Very beautiful, very outstanding.”
He paused for a moment before adding, “She’s also very good to me.”
Xu Wanwan looked at the youth seriously. She did not see any panic or dodging from his expression.
She let out a sigh of relief. She took out the bug from her bag and pushed it in front of him. “Then can you explain it to me?”
Xu Yuchu looked up. The moment he saw the bug, his face suddenly darkened.
“SIS, how did you... Find It?”
He suddenly remembered that a few months ago, Xu Yue had tricked him into putting the bug in Xu Wanwan’s bag.
At that time, the entire Xu family did not like Xu Wanwan.
Under Xu Yue’s careful and gentle persuasion, he did that.
But today, he had long forgotten about that part of the incident.
If he had remembered earlier, he would have reminded Xu Wanwan that he definitely did not have any intention of harming her.
“You don’t have to worry about how I found out.”Xu Wanwan’s eyes darkened. “I just need you to give me an explanation.”
“Sis, I’m sorry.”
Xu Yuchu lowered his head guiltily. “At that time... at that time, I didn’t know that your relationship with Xu Yue wasn’t good. I also didn’t know that Xu Yue would treat you in such a way.”
Xu Wanwan saw that his attitude was so sincere, and she suddenly couldn’t bear it.
So what if she knew the truth? So what if she heard a reasonable explanation?
It had already happened. Xu Yuchu might have hated himself when he did this in the first place.
However, it had already been so long. His attitude towards him had changed a long time ago.
Xu Wanwan patted his shoulder lightly. “It’s okay if you don’t want to say it. You’re my younger brother. You can do it anytime.”
“There’s no need to care so much between family members.”
Xu Yuchu was very touched. He said firmly, “Sis, I’m also at fault in this matter. I apologize to you.”
“At that time, I didn’t treat you well. I didn’t treat you as my sister. I was only deceived by Xu Yue’s appearance. That’s why I was used by her and did such things to you.”
“But SIS, I’ve changed now.”
Xu Yuchu said sincerely, “You’re my only sister. I Won’t do such things to you in the future.”
Xu Wanwan smiled lightly. “It’s alright. I know you won’t harm me.”
Fortunately, Xu Yuchu had nothing to do with this matter.
In her previous life, she had never had family love, nor had she experienced the greetings and care between family members.
In this life, she and Xu Yuchu had put the past behind them. She hoped that her sincerity could be exchanged for his understanding and respect.
Xu Yuchu nodded seriously. “Sis, don’t be angry. I’ll go make you something to eat.”
“No need.”Xu Wanwan hurriedly stopped her. “It’s not easy for me to come here. How can I Let You Cook?”
She took off her coat as she spoke and got up to walk to the kitchen.
Xu Yuchu scratched her head and followed behind her. “SIS, I want to Eat Hotpot.”
Xu Wanwan’s hand that was opening the fridge paused.
She looked in the direction of the dining table. It was dusk. The setting sun was reflected by the window, gently shining on the table. It was very warm.
She thought of the last time she had hotpot here with Li Jingran.
Memories were always so wonderful. It was always on all sorts of occasions and all sorts of times that suddenly jumped out and made people inexplicably miss it.
“Sister, can I?”
Xu Wanwan turned around and nodded with a smile. “Of course.”
She took out some vegetables from the fridge and thought for a while. Then she suddenly said, “Can you call Li Jingran and invite him to eat here?”
Xu Yuchu was stunned, and a look of surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.
“Okay! I’ll call brother-in-law now!”
He could not wait for Li Jingran and Xu Wanwan to be together, so he quickly took his phone to the living room to make a call.
Xu Wanwan was washing vegetables in the kitchen, casually picking the leaves, and her heart was already floating outside.
She was worried that Li Jingran was still angry at her.
If he refused to come, how could she apologize to him?
In the living room, Xu Yuchu was holding his phone. When he heard the man’s cold voice from inside, he cleared his throat and said, “Brother-in-law, my sister wants to cook Hotpot at my place. She asked me to invite you to dinner tonight.”
Xu Wanwan simply did not wash the vegetables. She walked to the kitchen door and listened carefully.
At that time, it was already time for the Li Corporation to get off work, but all the employees were like ants on a hot pot, making him anxious.
Just now, Li Jingran had already given the order to come up with a suitable plan within three hours. The Meeting Room was dead silent.
Li Jingran listened to the slightly familiar voice on the phone and frowned slightly. Everywhere he looked, there was an eerie coldness.
“Xu Wanwan is at your house?”
Xu Yuchu was a little impatient. “Didn’t I tell you? My sister asked you to come here for dinner. Are you coming or not?”
Xu Wanwan, who had been eavesdropping in the kitchen, could not help but hold her forehead.
She had never seen Xu Yuchu with such a bad temper before. Why was he always so fierce whenever he talked to Li Jingran?
She was even more nervous. What if Li Jingran was dissatisfied with his attitude and could not vent his anger?
Li Jingran pondered for a moment and said coldly, “Let Xu Wanwan tell me personally.”
Xu Yuchu subconsciously looked into the kitchen, but he still took the phone and stuffed it into Xu Wanwan’s hand. “Brother-in-law has something to say to you.”
Xu Wanwan held the phone in a daze. Her heart tightened and she raised the phone in a daze. “Hello?”
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone when a man’s faint voice came through
“You want to treat me to dinner?”
Xu Wanwan was stunned for a moment before she quickly said, “Yes! What do you want to eat? I’ll wait for You When I’m done.”
