Chapter 376: Chapter 376: Not That Big, Nor That Small
Cheng Youran felt that Dong Yingluo was doing it on purpose!
In fact, Dong Yingluo was indeed acting with intention.
She had just sized up this hospital room. Even the outer suite was so luxurious and comfortable; one could imagine how well Ji Yebai usually treated Ning Xixi!
In her heart, if she had chosen to stay back then, she would be the one enjoying Ji Yebai’s affection now!
Therefore, Dong Yingluo’s dislike for Ning Xixi had escalated to an unprecedented level!
"Dabai, who’s here?" Behind the hospital room door, a fluffy little head peeked out. When seeing so many people outside, her eyes, clear and moist like a small deer’s, were filled with surprise.
Hearing Ning Xixi’s voice, Ji Yebai turned his head back. Seeing her not dressed in slippers, with bare, fair feet on the ground, his eyebrows instantly frowned.
"Come here." He waved to Ning Xixi.
Ning Xixi came out in a daze and was immediately embraced by him. His large hand patted her on the bottom, "Why aren’t you wearing shoes?"
As he spoke, he picked her up and put her on the sofa, personally taking a pair of cartoon bear socks to put on her feet.
In front of so many people, Ning Xixi was extremely embarrassed, her round, rosy toes curling together.
Ji Yebai just felt that this girl’s feet were too small, even smaller than his hands. No wonder she ran so slowly!
The onlookers were so shocked their eyeballs nearly popped out!
Was this still the same domineering and aloof Young Master Ji they knew? Was this man, who personally helped his girlfriend put on her socks, possessed by an alien?
A trace of jealousy flashed in Dong Yingluo’s eyes, yet her expression was filled with an apology, "Xixi, can you forget the unpleasantness from before? Can we be friends from now on?"
Ning Xixi felt somewhat uncomfortable upon hearing this. She glanced up at her, slightly startled.
After not seeing her for a few days, Dong Yingluo seemed... different.
Before, her clothes and jewelry seemed quite ordinary.
But today, she was wearing a Gucci limited-edition spring dress, with expensive high heels, and a classic Cartier diamond bracelet on her wrist.
The outfit cost at least a six-figure sum.
However, Ning Xixi did not think too much about it, assuming that she had previously kept a low profile.
"Apologizing is your attitude. Whether I accept it is my freedom. I’m not so magnanimous, nor am I petty. If someone is good to me, I will do my best to repay them. If someone stabs me... I have not yet cultivated to the point where I can smile and say it’s fine."
Ning Xixi’s attitude was very calm and frank, but in Dong Yingluo’s eyes, it was a snub!
She believed she had concealed her emotions pretty well, but Ji Yebai still caught a fleeting glimpse of her hatred.
"Dong Yingluo."
"Ah?" Dong Yingluo revealed a standard smile, the perfect angle she had practiced in front of a mirror, "Do you have something to say to me? Then let’s go somewhere quiet..."
Her voice was so tender it seemed it could wring out water, making Cheng Youran feel extremely uncomfortable. She angrily stomped on Xiao Xichen’s foot, causing him to wince in pain and ask in a low voice, "What did I do wrong again?"
"Your existence is a mistake!"
Xiao Xichen: ... /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
Ji Yebai’s voice was devoid of any emotion, "No need. You and I are not yet on the terms to have a private conversation."
