Chapter 1389: Chapter 1389: Three People Living Together (3)

Su Hongxing fell silent.

Actually, she felt a bit uneasy. When someone who is always around you, meddling in your affairs, suddenly disappears, you need some time to adjust.

It was Little Pudding who would occasionally call her to chat for a bit, but every time they barely started speaking, Ye Qilan would cut the call short.

Over the next two days, Su Hongxing tried her best to avoid appearing in front of Ye Qilan, afraid that he would take issue with her. She thought she was doing this for Ye Qilan’s sake, but he saw her actions and interpreted them as defiance.

So, for two consecutive days, the two of them didn’t exchange a single word.

In the blink of an eye, it was Saturday again, and Su Hongxing got up later than usual that morning. When she came downstairs, she immediately felt something was off. Seeing Xiao Ji sitting in the living room startled her.

She shifted her gaze and immediately locked eyes with Ye Qilan’s dark and stormy stare. Her heartbeat quickened, and she quickly looked away.

“Amou…” Xiao Ji rose from his seat in excitement upon seeing Su Hongxing.

Jiang Su hurried forward to steady him. “Don’t get so worked up, isn’t this just seeing my elder sister? If you have something to say, take your time. Sit down first.”

“What are you doing here?” What Su Hongxing really wanted to ask was how Ye Qilan had allowed Xiao Ji into Qingmu Garden.

“I came on my own, of course. Don’t you remember? I’m also a rightful resident of this home.” Xiao Ji said, looking around the living room with a smile and sighing, “Coming back here feels like a lifetime ago.”

Su Hongxing didn’t know how to respond, so she chose silence as her reply.

Facing Xiao Ji always made her feel awkward–for one, because of the semblance of Xiao Ji, and two, because of his extraordinary identity; not to mention the piercing gaze Ye Qilan cast her way from the side.

“Sis, Xiao Ji’s injuries still haven’t healed. The doctor forbade him from leaving the hospital, but he insisted on coming to find you. The doctor couldn’t stop him, so Xiao Ji will temporarily stay at Qingmu Garden. Can you help take care of him for a while?” Jiang Su’s words, of course, were orchestrated by Xiao Ji.

Out of her sense of guilt toward Xiao Ji, she couldn’t refuse. She had to muster the courage to say it all.

Su Hongxing glanced at Ye Qilan. His expression was icy, lips pressed tightly–a sign he was on the verge of exploding in anger, wasn’t it?

“I…” Su Hongxing didn’t know how to reject this.

After all, Xiao Ji was essentially another Ye Qilan, and Qingmu Garden was also Ye Qilan’s home. In that case, she had no grounds to stop Xiao Ji from staying.

Furthermore, considering Xiao Ji’s severe injuries, from a humanitarian perspective, she couldn’t bring herself to deny him.

“Amou, I’d like to stay in the old master bedroom.” Xiao Ji’s voice reached Su Hongxing’s ears.

Su Hongxing didn’t know what to do, so she turned to Ye Qilan.

Ye Qilan’s expression darkened slightly, and he remained motionless. With his explosive temper, shouldn’t he have intervened to stop Xiao Ji from moving in? Why was he completely indifferent?

“Amou, could you help me upstairs?!” Xiao Ji asked again.

Su Hongxing was extremely anxious. She feared Ye Qilan’s anger but had no valid reason to refuse Xiao Ji. In the end, she chose to remain silent. Her eyes darted left and right, the epitome of guilt-ridden unease.

Qiao Qiao observed the scene and knew things were about to escalate.

She spoke to Xiao Ji, “I think your injuries are quite severe. Coming out of the hospital now could worsen them. Xiao Ji, maybe you should follow the doctor’s advice and focus on healing first before thinking about other matters?”

“It’s true my injuries are severe, and I shouldn’t be walking around. The doctor urged me to minimize my movements, but since I insist on being here, I’ll make sure to keep myself alive–for Amou’s sake.” Xiao Ji fixed his gaze on Su Hongxing without blinking.
