"I'm not going. I don't have time." Yu Xi resisted the urge to laugh coldly and coldly as she rejected him. If possible, she would rather never step into that house.
Hearing her rejection, Yu Qinghui was displeased. "What do you mean you don't have time?" How come he didn't even have the time to eat? What are you busy with! "
"I was very busy. Besides, I didn't want to step into that house. If I remember correctly, that house doesn't seem to be mine anymore."
"What do you mean it's not your home!" Yu Xi could even imagine Yu Qinghui's furious expression. "I don't care how busy you are, come home at noon!"
"I …" Yu Xi wanted to reject again, but Yu Qinghui's next sentence instantly stopped her.
"Think of your mother in bed. I don't mind talking to her." Yu Qinghui's voice was very low, and it carried a strong sense of threat.
Heh, as expected of her father. He knew what she was most afraid of right now, to actually threaten her mother, whom she cared about the most. How shameless!
Yu Xi bit her lower lip tightly. Her eyes were icy cold. "Using that poor ex-wife of yours to threaten your own daughter, your father is truly a one in a hundred chance, hur …"
Yu Qinghui, who was on the other end of the phone, choked for a moment when she said that. In just a short moment, he then coldly said, "Hmph, you don't want to make your mother worry. Come home at noon."
Heh … "Is there still any possibility for her to reject it?" "I'll go." Saying that, he hung up without any hesitation.
Yu Xi, who hadn't had a good rest in the first place, was even less in the mood now that Yu Qinghui's call had made her. She sat on the bed and blankly stared for a while, then lowered her head to look at the time on her phone.
Standing at the front door of her home, Yu Xi hesitated for a moment before not wanting to go in. Once, this place had been where her closest family lived, but now, everything had changed. The person inside was the person she avoided like a scorpion.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Xi knocked on the door. Yu Hua was the one who opened the door, but she didn't look too pleased when Yu Xi arrived. However, taking into account Yu Qinghui inside, she only shot a glance at Yu Xi before silently walking in.
Yu Xi didn't care about her attitude at all. She was merely forced back by Yu Qinghui. As for his motives, she had no idea. She only wished to finish this meal and leave as soon as possible.
Entering the once familiar home, Yu Xi looked around without leaving a trace. The previous furnishings had now all been replaced with new ones. It seemed like Yu Hua was sparing no effort to erase all traces of where she and her mother once lived.
Yu Xi couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Yu Hua isn't feeling good either, right? At this time, Yu Qinghui walked out. Seeing that Yu Xi had arrived, he didn't have any expression on his face. He only said in a rough voice, "You're here. Let's eat." After which, he walked straight towards the restaurant.
There was only Yu Qinghui and Yu Hua at the table. After Yu Xi sat down, she secretly let out a sigh of relief in her heart. Jiang Huai … It seemed like he wouldn't come back to eat today. It seemed like his worries were unnecessary. After being rejected so many times, was he finally going to give up?
Yu Xi lowered her head and silently ate the rice in her bowl. She knew that she would definitely be called over today. It would definitely not be a simple greeting.
Yu Qinghui's voice broke the awkward silence in the air. He cleared his throat and spoke with a deep voice, "What are you doing now? Where do you work? "
Yu Xi's hand that was holding the chopsticks paused slightly. She put it down and with a bland expression, she said, "We're at the nightclub now." Her voice was calm and without any ripples. She did not care about how Yu Qinghui would react to her words.
"What?!" Nightclub? "Which nightclub?" As expected, Yu Qinghui was shocked. He did not expect Yu Xi to be in such a miserable state. He stared at her with wide eyes.
Yu Xi, on the other hand, had an indifferent expression. She glanced at Yu Qinghui and indifferently replied, "You should know that I'm quite lucky to be able to enter such a high-end nightclub."
Yu Hua had been silent the entire time, but after seeing this, he suddenly snorted lightly and pretended to persuade her, "Qing Hui, don't worry about her. Since when has she heard of you? I'm afraid that she doesn't care about your family."
She then looked at Yu Xi, her gaze full of mockery, her mouth full of merciless ridicule, "I was still wondering what you're doing now, ha …" "A famous building, it can't be just a drinking lady, right? Your father has truly been humiliated, and has truly done the right thing to keep our River Huai away from you."
Yu Xi was listening silently the whole time. She did not have much emotion towards these words, but her heart still twitched a little when she heard Jiang Huai's name.
Yu Xi lifted her head and glanced at Yu Hua, her gaze deep and cold, immediately silencing Yu Hua. Only then did she unhurriedly look at Yu Qinghui and ask the question she had been wanting to ask, "Why did you call me here today? Don't beat around the bush."
Yu Qinghui's eyes flashed with anger. He didn't think that Yu Xi would ask so directly. However, he had something he wanted her to do today, so he didn't mind saying it out loud.
"Jiang Huai, he's your little brother, you know that he should be around the age of marriage by now. Your aunt and I have already chosen a girl for him, and we intend to play matchmaker for the two of them, but Jiang Huai is not willing to see her no matter what, so your aunt and I have no choice but to take him. We can only think of you and advise him otherwise."
