I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family
Chapter 523 - 523 532 Thats all flattery toward themChapter 523: Chapter 532: That’s all flattery toward them. Chapter 523: Chapter 532: That’s all flattery toward them. These two people, under the premise that they believed she was Nan Jin’s child, actually still forbid her from acknowledging Nan Jin as her “father” and wanted Nan Xi to continue impersonating Nan Jin’s daughter.
To say they have moral principles would be overpraising them. This matter only needed one question, and all answers would be laid out, yet they were reluctant. However, seeing the cautious manner of Nan Xi, she still felt very happy.
As for the misunderstanding between Nan Xi and Nan Jin, what did it have to do with her? She certainly wouldn’t eagerly tell Nan Xi, “You and he are actually father and daughter.”
Bai Zhi had changed her clothes into a red cotton garment. It seemed that people nowadays preferred reds and oranges, finding them festive for children. After all, it was Ye Xiu who had opted for this color.
Her own garment was beige, very pretty, but as Bai Zhi wanted to say—it’s just not practical.
Yet, it really highlighted a different temperament. Compared to the rustic reds of the village, it was like being several streets ahead in terms of grace.
Even Bai Zhi’s current red outfit was the type suitable for a little girl, looking cute and resembling a lucky doll.
When they returned downstairs, Ye Xiu was very pleased, thinking her Xingxing looked incredibly beautiful in this dress. She tugged at her while looking and smiling.
“Xingxing, you look so good in this dress. Mommy will buy you more in the future. A little girl should dress beautifully and festively.”
Her daughter’s willingness to wear the clothes she bought made Ye Xiu exceptionally happy, willing to do anything for her.
…
Bai Yu’s words brought a touch of determination to Nan Xi’s misty, large eyes.
That’s right, she couldn’t lose Brother Ouyang. Brother Ouyang was so good to her, having promised to protect her for a lifetime.
She couldn’t, absolutely couldn’t.
She couldn’t let Nan Jin know that Bai Zhi was his child; otherwise, Ouyang’s family would definitely not allow her to be friends with Brother Ouyang.
She still had to help Brother Ouyang, getting goods from Nan Jin for him. Brother Ouyang seemed very troubled recently, and she must help so that Brother Ouyang would treat her better.
“Then what should we do, brother? Should we tell Second Brother? It seems like he isn’t close to us anymore. Does he dislike me now?”
Nan Xi noticed that lately, Bai Ye hadn’t been very intimate with them. Before, everything was done together as three, but now, even when practicing martial arts, it was only her and eldest brother.
“Never mind him; he has his own thoughts now. He’ll understand it later.”
Bai Yu got annoyed just thinking about Bai Ye and didn’t want to mention him anymore.
Bai Ye was becoming increasingly intolerable lately. Was he trying to distance himself from them?
Fine, let’s see how far he could go without him, Bai Yu.
With that brainless brawn-over-brains attitude of his, wasn’t he just fit to be a lackey? If it weren’t for him, Bai Ye would be nothing over these years!
“Brother, you can’t say that. Maybe Second Brother just hasn’t figured it out yet. He’ll definitely understand. One day I’ll have a good talk with him. We three siblings absolutely can’t quarrel. Right?”
Nan Xi tugged at Bai Yu’s hand and blinked at him.
Though her eyes were nearly squeezed shut, let’s just assume he saw it.
“Alright, alright, I’m doing this for your sake, or else I really wouldn’t want to. That guy, he’s been getting more and more arrogant. I told him to listen to me, to let Mom know about our resolve, and what did he do?”
Bai Yu had believed that he could make their mother understand that her selfishness was wrong, yet Bai Ye suddenly started dragging his feet, almost infuriating him to death.
“Brother, I believe that as long as we talk it out well, he’ll understand.”
Nan Xi always felt that one more person meant additional strength.
“Fine, Xixi, go down now and just say I’m asleep. I can be capricious, but you can’t.”
Bai Yu frowned, letting Bai Yu bow his head was naturally not an option. But now was the time for Xixi to show her obedience. Only in this way could she make Nan Jin feel even more pity for her.
“Okay, brother, I’m going down now.”
Nan Xi also knew that she had to make herself even more obedient and sensible to continue to receive Nan Jin’s affection, so that she and Brother Ouyang could have a future.
Brother Ouyang, he was the person she liked the most. In the future, they would be together for a lifetime, being lifelong best friends.
Nan Xi nodded, walked downstairs, and found Bai Zhi and Nan Jin sitting together, laughing and talking, which immediately stung her eyes.
It made her heartache unbearably, feeling that Nan Jin was being too much. She couldn’t hold back any longer and immediately walked over, sat down next to Nan Jin, and even took his hand, then began to speak.
“Daddy, what are you and sister talking about that’s so cheerful?”
Bai Zhi gave her a faint smile, then immediately turned away, no longer looking at Nan Jin.
Actually, they hadn’t been talking about anything special, just Bai Zhi asking what Ye Xiu liked.
Nan Jin knew that Ye Xiu really wanted to mend their relationship with her daughter and naturally answered whenever asked.
Unexpectedly, Nan Xi suddenly ran over; she thought she had hidden her emotions well, but actually, not so much at all.
In comparison, she looked like a child desperate for attention, impatient to steal his attention away. Compared with the well-behaved Bai Zhi, Nan Xi…
“Why are you so fidgety? Didn’t I tell you to walk slowly? I’m not talking about anything important with Xingxing, sit down, it’s time for dinner.”
Ye Xiu brought out the last dishes, starting to get ready for the meal.
Nan Xi looked at the dishes, wanting to stand up.
“What’s wrong?”
Ye Xiu asked somewhat puzzled, thinking Nan Xi needed something.
“Mom, I was thinking that brother hasn’t eaten, we should save some for him.”
What a well-behaved and obedient appearance.
If it had been before, Ye Xiu would definitely have thought so, but now…
“There’s no need. If he’s throwing a fit and not eating, then he shouldn’t eat at all. We shouldn’t indulge him.”
Ye Xiu would not coddle Bai Yu, and in a while, she might not even save any dishes for him. How could such a grown person still be so unreasonable?
“But…” Nan Xi felt somewhat wronged, but brother hadn’t eaten.
“Nan Xi, sit down. Ah Xiu is Bai Yu’s mother; she has his best interests in mind. As a child, you should act like a child. If in the future you throw a tantrum and refuse to eat, I will do the same.”
Although he didn’t know what had happened, to be angry at Ah Xiu like that, his impression of Bai Yu worsened a lot.
“Dad, you have no idea what happened, how can you say that?”
Nan Xi frowned, somewhat puzzled.
“You also don’t know, and how to discipline a child is your aunt’s business, Nan Xi. Are you also thinking about being disobedient?”
Nan Jin’s face darkened all at once, his expression growing stern.
A sense of grievance surged in Nan Xi’s heart.
