When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase
Chapter 865: Sheng Yanxiao vs. Su Weiyi (Middle Part 1)
At the dining table, Su Weiyi was about to take the college entrance exam. Her grades were good, so as long as she didn’t perform abnormally, she could basically get into any school she wanted. However, since this was a crucial exam in life, the conversation at the table gradually shifted to the exam.
"Xiao Yi, have you decided where you want to apply?"
Su Weiyi smiled slightly and was about to speak, but her eyes suddenly met a deep and somewhat nonchalant gaze, and the words she was about to say were swallowed. Su Weiyi obediently said, "Not yet."
When she spoke, she habitually lowered her eyes, which made her appear a little nervous to others. Although this exam wouldn’t determine her entire life, it was not something to be taken lightly. As parents, they didn’t want to put pressure on Su Weiyi. So upon seeing her seemingly tense appearance, the topic was dropped.
Sheng Yanxiao’s gaze remained on the demure girl with lowered eyes. Growing up together, no one knew the girl across from him better than he did. Not decided yet? Heh... she just didn’t want them to know.
The boy’s unruly eyes darkened, and his clearly defined hand silently clenched into a fist.
After dinner, they returned to the Mu Family’s villa. Since Su Weiyi came to S City for school, she chose to live on campus, never wanting to trouble her Aunt Sheng Jiayu. But Sheng Jiayu still prepared a separate room for her. Su Weiyi folded the clothes she brought back and put them in the wardrobe when she heard a knock on the door. She went over to open it.
She saw Sheng Yanxiao leaning against the door frame, legs crossed, a faint smile on his face but with a hint of danger in his eyes.
Su Weiyi instinctively shrank her neck: "What’s up?"
Her voice was soft and gentle, making one’s heart tremble.
Though Su Weiyi was older than Sheng Yanxiao, the difference between boys and girls showed. At fifteen, Sheng Yanxiao was already one meter seventy-eight tall, while Su Weiyi was just reaching one meter sixty-five.
Sheng Yanxiao bent down, his handsome and clean face coming very close to Su Weiyi, his dark eyes staring straight at her. Su Weiyi instinctively took a step back, but her arm was firmly gripped by the young master’s strong hand: "Mom asked me to tell you to come down and have some fruit, my dear sister."
Sheng Yanxiao emphasized the last two words, causing Su Weiyi to shiver all over again.
She was introverted and quiet, but not timid, except that she was particularly afraid of the person in front of her.
He was her brother in name, but she absolutely couldn’t say this in front of Sheng Yanxiao. He never recognized her as his sister; whoever mentioned it, he would immediately turn hostile.
No one knew when it started, but the relationship between them had changed. Sheng Yanxiao always seemed to bully her, and his temper became unpredictable, often losing his temper inexplicably and saying some strange and sarcastic things to her.
He almost never called her sister, always referring to her as "Su Weiyi Su Weiyi," but whenever he called her "sister," Su Weiyi knew he was angry again.
But she hadn’t provoked him today.
Su Weiyi kept her head down. Never mind, she wouldn’t think about whether she had offended him in some way. She was already used to Sheng Yanxiao’s inexplicable outbursts.
The boy looked at the girl in front of him, who only reached his shoulder and had her head buried low, and felt an inexplicable irritation.
She could smile so happily at anyone else, but as soon as she saw him, she turned into this turtle-like posture, as if he could eat her alive, which made him furious just looking at it.
