Chen Xia zhi was stunned.
Did she look down on me?
Thus.
She grabbed a corner of the quilt and pulled it directly open.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Two consecutive screams rang out.
The first was from Chen Nan. He hadn't expected this to be real.
Because from his understanding of Chen Xia zhi, since she was jealous of him and Chen Hanlu, she wouldn't be over it for at least ten days to half a month.
Let alone waking him up with such a gentle tone early in the morning.
Before this, he had always thought he was dreaming.
He only realized it wasn't a dream when the quilt was pulled open!
The second scream came from Chen Xia zhi.
She hadn't expected Chen Nan to be sleeping naked.
Beneath the quilt, he was as bare as a loach.
But.
There was one thing that scared her pale and made her heart flutter like a frightened deer.
"Had enough?" Chen Nan covered himself, his eyes full of resentment.
Chen Xia zhi snapped back to her senses, her face flushed: "Big brother is indeed big brother!" Then she ran away with a red face.
Looking at her retreating figure.
Chen Nan fell into contemplation.
Chen Hanlu had provoked her immensely yesterday, and she had been very angry.
But why did she seem like a completely different person after waking up?
Did she truly forgive him?
To be honest.
This didn't seem like her personality!
Forget it!
Let nature take its course.
As the ancestor of the Outer Eight Sects, a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage, why would I fear this little girl?
After washing up, Chen Nan went to the dining room downstairs.
His mother had already prepared breakfast.
In Jizhou, the first meal after moving in must have steamed buns, symbolizing prosperity in the future.
There must also be bean sprouts, symbolizing rooting and sprouting here.
One dish and one meal were simple.
But for the family to gather for a quiet and warm breakfast was priceless.
"Brother, this place isn't far from my school. I don't want to board anymore!" Chen Xia zhi scooped a bowl of congee and handed it to Chen Nan, her eyes shining with pleading.
Chen Nan thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you still stay at school? The atmosphere there is better and can help you integrate better into your future studies."
Chen Xia zhi nodded obediently and smiled, "I'll listen to everything brother says."
Chen Nan: "???"
Chen Shan: "???"
Jia Cui: "???"
What was going on?
Why had their second daughter's personality changed so much overnight, becoming so obedient?
She used to be so good at acting spoiled, you know!
This girl was acting strangely!
Very strangely!
"If you don't want to board, you can come back too." Chen Nan sighed in his heart. He knew that Chen Xia zhi's obedient demeanor was actually a strategic retreat.
So, he had to compromise!
After all, Chen Hanlu's No. 1 High School was further away than Chen Xia zhi's Yingcai International School. If Chen Hanlu was allowed to come back and she wasn't, wouldn't that be showing favoritism?
Damn it!
I've been completely defeated by my sister in a battle of wits and courage early in the morning. I'm such a failure of a brother!
Just then.
Chen Hanlu arrived at the dining room with cheerful steps.
The moment she appeared, everyone gasped.
Mainly because her development was too obvious.
Although she wasn't very large now, she had at least reached a C cup.
Before, she was an A!
"Oh, the heavens!"
Jia Cui felt an indescribable sense of frustration.
Now she knew why the third child was so close to Chen Nan.
It was obvious that her transformation had something to do with Chen Nan.
Chen Xia zhi looked at her chest with a complicated expression.
Could I also grow a little bigger?
------
As the family was eating, the doorbell rang.
"I'll get the door!" Jia Cui quickly stood up and, upon seeing Jian Ning outside, her eyes lit up. She immediately called out, "Son, come out quickly, your friend is here!"
This shout brought everyone out.
However.
Upon seeing Jian Ning, a hint of hostility flashed in the eyes of the two sisters, who had been at odds with each other. They then decisively returned to the dining room to continue eating breakfast.
"Second sister, I feel we should be united against a common enemy!" Chen Hanlu said.
Chen Xia zhi nodded: "Although I really dislike your smug attitude, what you said is right."
The sisters hit it off immediately!
In the face of a common enemy, they quickly became allies.
"Old sir, please come in, please come in!" Chen Nan enthusiastically invited Jian Ning and Grandpa Jian into the villa.
Actually, he wasn't too surprised by their appearance.
After all, Grandpa Jian himself liked him very much.
Moreover, old people of this age valued etiquette highly.
His family had just moved in last night, so he was bound to come over to say hello today.
The arrival of Grandpa Jian and Jian Ning delighted his mother immensely.
"Uncle, according to tradition, it should be us juniors visiting you, an elder. You've made us feel so embarrassed!"
Jia Cui had always liked Jian Ning.
What's more, after they moved in, the grandfather and grandson came to visit with gifts.
What was this?
Meeting the parents!
With Jian Ning's presence, she no longer worried about her two daughters having inappropriate thoughts about Chen Nan.
Grandpa Jian exchanged pleasantries, toured the villa, and then left with Jian Ning.
After leaving the villa, he said earnestly, "Ning'er, you must act first when it comes to some things. You can't wait!"
"I don't understand what you're saying?" Jian Ning was bewildered.
"You're still too young!" Grandpa Jian shook his head helplessly. "If I remember correctly, Chen Nan's family is a bit unusual, right?"
Jian Ning said, "Yes, Uncle Chen and Aunt Jia are from blended families."
Grandpa Jian asked, "Did you see the look in the eyes of Chen Nan's two non-blood-related sisters when they looked at you?"
Jian Ning was confused: "Is there a problem?"
"I saw hostility in their eyes. Although they hid it very well, your grandfather isn't blind and naturally noticed it."
Speaking of which, Grandpa Jian sighed, "If I'm not mistaken, both of those sisters have feelings for Chen Nan. Of course, this is normal, as Chen Nan is a very outstanding guy."
"Besides, they aren't related by blood. Anyone would like such an outstanding man when they meet him."
"So, sometimes, some things cannot wait."
"Not only can't you wait, but you even have to be more proactive sometimes."
"Otherwise, a good man will be snatched away by someone else!"
Jian Ning shivered in fright: "It shouldn't be, right?"
Grandpa Jian: "Think carefully about their attitude towards you. Although they were polite, they lacked enthusiasm; they were simply going through the motions!"
Hearing this, Jian Ning couldn't help but recall what had happened when she met the two sisters.
The first time was when Pei Jian's hotel opened and Chen Nan was drunk. She took him home. At that time, the two sisters had also appeared indifferent when they saw her.
And this time...
It seemed to be just as her grandfather said.
They were truly hostile towards her.
Thinking of this, Jian Ning said, "Even if the sisters harbor hostility towards me, it's not a bad thing!"
"It's not only not a bad thing, but it's even a good thing." A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
