Chapter 324: She Was a Little Helpless
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When the siblings’ private conversation was discovered, they were asked what they were talking about.
Qi Lei felt a little embarra.s.sed.
Xing Jiuan said confidently, “Would it still be considered a private conversation if I let you guys know?”
No one could refute her.
Xing Jiuan brought Qi Lei out to buy clothes in the afternoon.
Now that the weather was slowly turning cold, it was time to prepare some warm clothes.
Qi Lei was a very qualified model.
He would try whichever piece of clothing Xing Jiuan asked him to try. When Xing Jiuan asked him what he liked, he said that he would listen to her. When Xing Jiuan asked him which color he liked, he said that he was not picky.
Therefore, Xing Jiuan experienced the joy of dressing up a child.
She suddenly understood why her Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters always sent her a bunch of clothes.
Also, Lin Ling always wanted her to try on clothes!
It felt so good!
Qi Lei’s figure was especially good. Every piece of clothing made him look extremely good with his long legs.
Even though he was just a teenager, his clothes gave off a different feeling. In short, he was very likable.
He had a good figure and was good-looking. He would probably look good even in a sack.
Xing Jiuan brought Qi Lei to buy a lot of clothes. At the end, when the two of them were about to go back, Qi Lei had already taken a bunch with his left and right hands.
Actually, Xing Jiuan still wanted to continue buying, but Qi Lei stopped her with difficulty.
Xing Jiuan wanted to help Qi Lei share the burden, but Qi Lei refused.
In the end, Xing Jiuan only took two small shopping bags and went back with Qi Lei, who was holding large and small bags.
Xing Jiuan thought that it was fortunate that they could take the elevator to the underground parking lot. Otherwise, it might not have felt good to have so many things.
However, Qi Lei did not feel uncomfortable.
He was not weak to begin with. He might have looked like he had a lot of things, but in fact, they were just clothes and shoes. Some of them were even bigger than packages, so he did not think they were very heavy.
When they returned home, Qi Lei went up to place the clothes while Xing Jiuan was called over by her master.
“Master, is something the matter?”
Master did not seem to be able to say anything.
Uncle-Master spoke.
“Jiuan, it’s like this,” he said slowly.
“It’s Old Master Huo’s birthday in two days. Your master and I are going over. Are you coming along?”
Xing Jiuan stopped in her tracks.
Actually, she had already set the Huo family aside.
She no longer cared about the Huo family and did not want to think about anything else.
However, in her previous life, she was still a little unwilling.
She hated the Huo family to the core, but she could not get rid of them completely in this life.
She was a little helpless.
She was like a turtle hiding in her sh.e.l.l. She did not want to go against her morals and do anything to the Huo family, but she did not want to forgive them either. She did not want to interact with the Huo family, but she would always unintentionally b.u.mp into them.
She could not feel at ease after all.
Even if those two years were just a joke, they were still a thorn deeply rooted in her heart!
Even if she had forcefully pulled out the thorn, it would still bleed. When the wound healed, there would still be scars.
There was no pain that could be easily forgotten!
When Master saw Xing Jiuan’s silent expression, his heart ached a little.
He could not predict what Xing Jiuan had experienced in her previous life.
However, he had once told Xing Jiuan that her life was actually not that unbearable.
Actually, she was not that weak in the Huo family.
If Xing Jiuan knew more, she might feel better.
