I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 1040: Life Is So Long, Let’s Just Forget It 13

Ning Xixi felt like she had been hit by a million points of critical damage!

Ugh... Is he really my brother? How could he hit her like this?

"I think my cooking has improved a lot lately..." Ning Xixi blinked her clear, glassy eyes, "Brother, won’t you try just a bite, a small bite?"

As his soft and cute sister acted coquettishly, Song Zhiyang’s firm resolve began to waver.

Alright, alright, I’ll try just a bite, it won’t kill me!

After convincing himself, Song Zhiyang picked up his chopsticks and tried a bite of Ning Xixi’s dish...

"How is it? How is it?" Ning Xixi looked at him full of hope.

Song Zhiyang told himself to be strong!

The future holds much greater hardships; how can I be defeated by this one mouthful?

He swallowed it with difficulty, racking his brain to find words of praise for Ning Xixi. Just as he opened his mouth, his stomach churned uncomfortably, and he turned to dash to the bathroom, vomiting violently into the toilet.

Ning Xixi: .../(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

Failed...

A sudden urgent ringing of the doorbell interrupted.

Eh? Is Ou Fengyi back? Ning Xixi ran to open the door, her slippers clattering.

As she opened the door, a strikingly handsome face appeared unguarded!

Ning Xixi was stunned!

Ji Yebai!

How did he find this place?

Instinctively wanting to close the door, his strong arm blocked it, and no matter how hard she pushed, the door didn’t budge an inch.

She bit her lip: "Why... why are you here?"

The fatigue in Ji Yebai’s eyes vanished upon seeing her, his dark pupils deep like ancient wells, as he gazed unblinkingly into her eyes, "I came to take you home."

Six words, as if warming the universe.

Ning Xixi felt a surge of emotion, wanting to cry.

But... he’s engaged to Anna, where can she go back to?

She’s lost her mom and dad, lost Ji Yebai; she no longer has a home.

Seeing Ning Xixi remain silent, a furry head peeked out from behind Ji Yebai, and Jacks urgently said, "Miss Ning, Young Master Ji has been looking for you for so long, just go with him!"

Ning Xixi glanced at Song Zhiyang, who was still retching in the bathroom, and with her delicate fingertips, she grabbed Ji Yebai’s arm, "Let’s talk outside!"

...

This deserted island, picturesque and bought by Ou Fengyi as a vacation spot.

Ning Xixi was staying in a villa, with a fairly large swimming pool in the yard, its blue waters shimmering under the sunlight.

"Ji Yebai... I’ve thought about it, and I think you and Anna suit each other well. I overestimated myself before. I’m really quite useless, fragile... lacking ability... always wanting to escape when things happen... not outstanding at all... compared to her, I’m far behind. You and she together are truly a perfect match..."

"Ning Xi! I came all this way to find you, and this is what you want to say to me?" Ji Yebai’s face turned dark, his heart sinking to the bottom.

The thing he feared most had finally happened.

It wasn’t someone else separating them; it was Ning Xixi who chose to give up first.

Ning Xixi pretended to be indifferent, her eyes curving like crescent moons, "Maybe, you and she are true love, and I was just an accident in your life... Ji Yebai, life is so long, we should just let it go."

Having said those words, she felt relieved, turning to leave, but her collar was yanked hard by Ji Yebai, pulling her forcefully into his embrace!

"Ning Xixi! Let it go? You dare to tell me to let it go? How can you be so cruel?"
