Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

However, Lin Xi did not live the life she had imagined without being displaced. Although Ye Zhenkai was very good to Lin Yurou and Lin Xi, Lin Yurou became more and more disgusted with this daughter who was the only one to accompany her when she was down and out.

As the saying goes, the first thing a person with a leg injury does after recovering is to throw away the crutches that have been with him for many years. After Lin Yurou lived a life of well-fed, happy and sweet life, every time she saw the timid Lin Xi, she would think of her own miserable days in the past, which made her more and more intolerant of Lin Xi.

So, in the second year after marrying into the Ye family, Lin Yurou sent Lin Xi, who was only eleven years old, to study abroad in the name of broadening Lin Xi's horizons and learning culture. She stayed there for more than ten years.

A little girl in her teens was alone in a foreign country where she couldn't speak the language and was unfamiliar with the place. Although the landlord couple of her host family were very friendly to her, they had many children and naturally didn't have any extra energy to devote to Lin Xi.

Moreover, a little Chinese girl not only has to deal with the pressure of studying abroad, but also has to be vigilant against discrimination and bullying that may occur at any time. This has led her to gradually dress herself up as a bad girl in her battle of wits with those malicious "Teenagers", and she has also developed a superb ability to escape.

Lin Xi frowned. Just receiving the original owner's memories made her feel heavy-hearted. She couldn't bear to think about what kind of mood the original owner, who had experienced all these things personally, must have been in when she spent more than ten years of helpless life in a foreign land.

Ye Huai looked at her in a daze, not understanding why a photo made her become like this. He looked at the photo in his hand again, trying hard to recall the situation when the photo was taken from his memory.

Back then, Ye Zhenkai insisted on marrying Lin Yurou despite Grandpa Ye's opposition. In the end, he acted without first reporting to Grandpa Ye and only informed Grandpa Ye after getting the marriage certificate, which made Grandpa Ye so angry that he almost fainted.

But the matter was done and there was no way to change it. Grandpa Ye had no choice but to accept the reality. However, when he thought of his unpromising children, he felt a little disappointed. He began to place the family's hopes on his thirteen-year-old grandson and became increasingly strict in educating Ye Huai.

On the day when Ye Zhenkai brought Lin Yurou and her son to visit, Ye Huai was being punished for not completing the task assigned to him by Grandpa Ye yesterday. The teenage boy was feeling depressed and thinking about his mistakes, but his uncle's family came to visit with smiles on their faces. Ye Zhenkai even teased him with a playful smile, which made Ye Huai even more irritated.

After finishing a tasteless family dinner, Ye Zhenkai and his family were finally going to leave amidst the sullen face of Old Master Ye. However, when they reached the door, he insisted on taking a photo with Ye Huai and Lin Xi. Ye Huai wanted to refuse, but Old Master Ye, who had a sullen face and disliked Lin Yurou and her daughter, bucked his behavior and nodded in agreement.

Ye Huai looked at the little girl who was only as tall as his chest. She looked at him timidly and hesitantly, but when she heard the adults' instructions, she still mustered up the courage and wanted to hold his hand.

Ye Huai hated being touched by others the most. The moment her hand just touched his fingers and hadn't clenched yet, he subconsciously shook her hand away.

Lin Xi's face showed astonishment, and her big round eyes were full of hurt, as if tears were about to flow out at the next moment. Her already thin body shrank a little bit, which made people feel pity for her.

Ye Huai was stabbed by her gaze and realized that it was wrong for him to vent his anger on her. He frowned and fumbled around for a long time before he took out a sticky candy from his pocket and handed it to her, saying impatiently, "I don't like others touching me."

Lin Xi hesitated for a moment, but still took the candy, lowered her eyes, and whispered, "It's okay, Xixi is used to it."

Then she raised her head again, slowly moved half a step to the side, increasing the distance between them, hugged the doll in her arms tightly and looked at the camera. Their first meeting was frozen at that moment.

After the recollection ended, Ye Huai looked at Lin Xi, who looked unhappy. He thought she was thinking about what happened in the past. He suddenly felt guilty and said in a calm voice, "I'm sorry about that year."

Lin Xi came to her senses and heard Ye Huai, who was always calm, apologize to her in a low voice with a guilty look on his face. She knew that he also remembered what happened that year. She forced a smile and shook her head, saying, "It's okay. If a stranger held my hand, I would subconsciously shake it off. I don't blame you."

Yes, such a small matter is not worth mentioning at all compared with the cold eyes and abuse the original owner suffered in different families, and the injuries she encountered when she was alone abroad. What's more, Ye Huai had already apologized to her on the day the original owner boarded the plane to go abroad.

In the end, Lin Xi did not take the photo away. The relationship between her and Ye Huai, which had become closer over the past two days, became cold again because of this photo. Although she felt sorry for the original owner's experience and Ye Huai felt guilty, they had the same goal. The two did not say anything extra from the afternoon to the evening.

At the dinner table, Grandpa Ye looked at Ye Huai and Lin Xi who were eating in silence. He couldn't understand why the two people who were so happy at noon suddenly became cold. But he knew Ye Huai's character. On the surface, he looked cold and indifferent, but in fact, he was the most stubborn. Lin Xi had just returned to China and was not close to him, so it was not easy for him to persuade her. He could only say some words to ask the two to get along well and take care of each other.

On the way back, Lin Xi finally calmed down and began to think that now that her memory was finally complete, she still had to figure out the family incident that led to the final outcome of the second male lead. However, it was still early for that incident to happen, and now her relationship with Ye Huai had not reached the point where he could confide in her. It seemed that there was still a long way to go to change his destiny.

Ye Huai, who seemed to be concentrating on driving but was actually glancing at Lin Xi from the corner of his eye from time to time, witnessed the rich and changing expressions on Lin Xi's face the whole time. He saw that her brows were furrowed at one moment, and then she looked relieved, and in the end she seemed to have made up some kind of decision. For some reason, he found it somewhat funny, and unknowingly, his somewhat depressed mood also relaxed a lot. He didn't even notice that the corners of his mouth, which had always been pursed, were slightly raised.
