Chapter 497 - 497 My Su Jin
497 My Su Jin
Fang Su Jin looked at the three people in front of her and noticed that they were wearing matching clothes. Her movement halted.
The three of them looked adorable together. She suddenly wondered just how they would look if Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi had a baby together.
Fang Su Jin snapped out of her trance and walked over. “Li Xue, you’re here.” The smile on her face was especially bright. Only God knew just how anxious she was when her best friend had not shown up.
Her mind was running wild and nothing that Zhang Yi Hai said could make her calm down.
Fortunately... Zhang Li Xue still showed up.
Her eyes and nose were stinging again. Fang Su Jin had the urge to cry. However, she tried her best to suppress that feeling.
Zhang Li Xue noticed that her friend’s reaction and started to worry that this friend was going to cry again. “Alright. Su Jin, why didn’t you give us a tour? This is Xi Xi’s first time visiting. She’s very excited to look at your paintings.”
Fang Su Jin sucked in a deep breath before she turned around to the little girl. “Xi Xi, let’s go. Let me take you around the place.”
Bai Xi Xi took Fang Su Jin’s stretched hand and the two of them walked into the hall together.
.....
Fortunately, there were not many people around this time. Bai Xi Xi was given a private tour to look at the paintings around the exhibition center.
It was Bai Xi Xi’s first time looking at paintings by professional artists. She could not help but marvel at the styles.
They spent more than an hour to tour around the place. When they were finally done, Fang Su Jin looked at the little girl and asked, “Xi Xi, what do you think?”
The little girl pondered over her question seriously before giving her answer. “They are very pretty. Sister Su Jin, you are very good at painting.”
Fang Su Jin laughed happily. She did not expect that being praised by a little girl would make her very happy as well.
“Sister Su Jin, when you have time, can you teach me to paint as well?”
Fang Su Jin smiled. “Of course.” She hugged the little girl and spoke, “Then, Xi Xi, you will be my first student.”
Seeing that it was time for lunch, Zhang Yi Hai suggested that they eat at a nearby restaurant. As he had been in F Country for a few days, Zhang Yi Hai could recommend some good restaurants that would suit everyone’s taste.
The atmosphere around the restaurant was quite good and the garden outside was pretty.
Fang Su Jin noticed that Bai Xi Xi seemed interested to look at the garden and decided to bring her out for a walk. Anyway, it was inconvenient for Zhang Li Xue to move around as she was in her wheelchair.
Just in time, Bai Qi’s phone rang and he stepped outside to answer the call from the hospital.
It was then that Zhang Yi Hai realized that he was left alone with his sister. He raised his head and realized that his sister was staring at him.
Zhang Yi Hai let out a cough as he avoided her gaze. “Sister, why are you staring at me like that?”
Zhang Li Xue sneered. “Zhang Yi Hai, you’re good.”
“Of course. I know that I am good.”
Her brother was too shameless and Zhang Li Xue had the urge to beat him up. Unfortunately, she could not stand up with her injured leg.
“When did you start to like my Su Jin?”
“Sister, what are you talking about? Su Jin is my girlfriend. Of course, she’s mine.”
Zhang Li Xue stared at his brother in disbelief. She inhaled a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. “Su Jin is an innocent girl. Zhang Yi Hai, if I ever found out that you are bullying her, I will beat you even though you are my little brother. Don’t make her cry.”
The look on Zhang Yi Hai’s face turned serious. “You can rest assured. I won’t do anything to hurt her. Sister, I am very serious about Su Jin. I also hoped that this relationship would last for a very long time.”
The siblings stared at each other for a long time.
In the end, it was Zhang Li Xue who looked away first. She reached for the glass in front of her and took a few sips.
She wanted to scold Zhang Yi Hai for keeping such an important matter from her. However, Zhang Li Xue remembered how she had asked Fang Su Jin to keep her secret when she was dating Bai Qi.
“Sister, I have something I would like to ask from you,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke after a long silence between them.
Zhang Li Xue noted that her brother’s expression had turned serious. “What is it?”
“Regarding me and Su Jin dating, can you keep this matter a secret from our family?” Zhang Yi Hai said. “I don’t want them to know about this.”
Zhang Li Xue sneered. “Why should I help you to keep this secret?”
“Su Jin did not want the others to know,” Zhang Yi Hai said. “Sister, you also know how our parents misunderstood my relationship with Su Jin when we were at the hotel a few months ago. Su Jin did not want this to turn awkward between everyone.”
“Didn’t you say that you are serious about Su Jin? Zhang Yi Hai, are you planning to keep this secret from our parents forever?”
“Not forever. Just that... we agreed to keep this a secret until I completed my study,” Zhang Yi Hai said. “Su Jin wanted me to concentrate on my study first. She is worried that dating would be affecting my study. We started dating for a few months. We hope to understand each other more before we could announce this to others.”
Zhang Li Xue pondered over her brother’s request for a while and decided to help them. “Very well. I can keep this secret.”
Zhang Yi Hai heave a breath of relief, knowing that his sister would be helping him.
“But you should know that I am only doing this for Su Jin,” Zhang Li Xue said.
