Chapter 540: I Won’t Let Her Down
Those words meant that Xiang Chen accepted s.h.i.+ Sui despite being upset.
It was because s.h.i.+ Sui was the person that Xiang Yi liked.
s.h.i.+ Sui took a deep breath and tried to contain his emotions, which was evident in his voice.
“I won’t let her down.”
“I hope you can understand the significance of that statement,” Xiang Chen said with an austere gaze that was full of a warning.
After saying that, Xiang Chen walked out of the living room without looking back.
He needed to smoke a cigarette to calm down.
However, Xiang Yi hated the smell of tobacco.
…
Xiang Yi adjusted her emotions and scurried towards s.h.i.+ Sui. “Does any part of your body hurt? I’ll see if it’s serious…”
The Xiang brothers saw that and found it a huge eyesore.
However, Xiang Chen had been akin to the head of the family since they were kids and his att.i.tude was clearly proof that he had accepted s.h.i.+ Sui.
Xiang Yu clenched his fist and said seriously, “Brother s.h.i.+, I have always respected you like you’re an older brother since we were children. My sister is the precious gem that our family has cherished and doted on since she was born, so I hope you will treat her well.”
Xiang Qi’s tone was much more aggressive. He warned, “s.h.i.+ Sui, let me tell you, if you let my sister suffer, I will not let you off!”
Xiang Li wiped his gla.s.ses with an alcohol wipe and his aura was rather graceful and scholarly but the words he said made others shudder for no reason. He said, “You’d better understand that Xiang Yi is definitely not a girl that you can treat casually.”
s.h.i.+ Sui nodded and said, “I’ll take your words seriously, Brothers.”
“…”
‘What should I do? I still feel like beating him up when I hear him calling me ‘Brother’.’
They suddenly understood why Xiang Chen went outside.
The three men stayed silent and left the living room unanimously.
They were afraid that if they were to stay any longer, they wouldn’t be able to resist the urge to beat s.h.i.+ Sui up.
Until they left, Xiang Yi was still stunned and overwhelmed with disbelief.
“Have my brothers…approved of our relations.h.i.+p?”
s.h.i.+ Sui chuckled and said, “Looks like it.”
“!”
Xiang Yi’s eyes lit up. “Great, great, great!”
“Thank you, Xiang Yi, for taking me to meet your family, and for giving me a proper status.”
At that, Xiang Yi was still a little embarra.s.sed. “It’s only right to take your boyfriend to meet your family.”
s.h.i.+ Sui rubbed her soft hair, and said in an apologetic tone, “I’m sorry, Xiang Yi, I’m afraid I can’t take you to meet my family for now.”
Xiang Yi had heard a little about s.h.i.+ Sui’s family situation.
s.h.i.+ Sui was brought up by his father, and the two of them were very close. His father was a famous painter who had high attainments in art and could be considered a master but unfortunately, he had been suffering from mental problems and was currently receiving treatment abroad.
His mother was a businesswoman who had previously been bankrupt but managed to make a comeback. She was a bona fide career woman and Xiang Yi had once heard that she and s.h.i.+ Sui had a deep conflict, but she wasn’t clear about the details.
“It’s okay, just let nature take its course.” Xiang Yi not only did not take it to heart, but also comforted s.h.i.+ Sui instead. “Uncle will definitely get better.”
The two of them were talking when they were suddenly interrupted by the sound of footsteps.
“Oh my gosh, Xiang Yi, how come you summoned all your brothers?” Li Jianyu danced with excitement and asked, “How long are they staying at the manor?!”
Xiang Yi thought for a moment before answering, “They should be here all day today.”
Li Jianyu dashed towards Xiang Yi with an exaggerated sliding knee. “You know what, Xiang Yi? You have a halo around your head!”
‘The four brothers of the Xiang family are all together. How interesting and newsworthy this must be!’
Other guests would make the director worried sick.
Guests like Xiang Yi were hard to come by!!
