The CEO admires the strong? I have been able to breathe independently since I was a child

After leaving the house, the two brothers looked calm.

During the meal, Jiang Wan kept picking up food for Chi Xiao, acting more like a mother to her than Lu Wei.

"Xiaoxiao, I made this crab roe porridge. Is it delicious?"

"And this Beef Wellington. I'm worried you won't like it, so I also made Chicken with Mushrooms."

"Do you want to eat this shrimp? Auntie will peel it for you."

No matter how fast Jiang Wan picked up the food, Chi Xiao would put it in his mouth in one second.

Until she said she wanted to peel it, she stopped chewing, swallowed the food and politely replied: "I can do it myself, Aunt Jiang."

"Okay, shrimps taste better if you peel off the shells." Jiang Wan never spoils the fun in front of Chi Xiao.

Li Ge clenched his chopsticks tightly, thinking of the strict table manners he had been taught since childhood.

From the age of four, he was required not to talk while eating or sleeping. At the age of six, he had to peel a whole plate of shrimp with a knife and fork before he could eat.

Children’s hand movements are not delicate, so it takes more than three hours for them to completely peel a plate of shrimps.

He had no choice but to spend the entire summer staying up late to finish his homework, relying on that plate of shrimp and leftovers.

After class, Xiao Qi studied with the group and stayed in the crew during both summer and winter vacations.

Xiaohe skipped grades all the way, and finally hired a private tutor to complete the entire high school curriculum at home, and then went to Luofu Mountain to concentrate on training.

It seemed as if all the responsibilities fell on him, and he had to behave himself as a family heir who was given high hopes.

There is no interest at all.

Li Ge's talent is not outstanding, but compared with ordinary people, he is far ahead.

But even so, the heavy workload still made him breathless.

Every night, I toss and turn and can't sleep.

The consequence of severe lack of sleep is that you will not grow tall and will be very thin.

In other words, I have indulged myself in the past few years and the pressure has obviously been reduced a lot.

He peeled a shrimp with a knife and fork and put it into Chi Xiao's bowl while the chaos was going on.

It seems that no one noticed.

He seemed to have always been like this, dull, boring and mediocre in front of them.

Not long after dinner, Chi Dao came back.

He was holding an exquisite box in his hand, and when he saw Chi Xiao, he subconsciously hid it behind him.

"Chi Dao is back!" Lu Wei called out, "Go and say hello to your Aunt Jiang."

"Good evening, Aunt Jiang." Chi Dao said gently.

Jiang Wan responded and turned around to chat with Chi Xiao again.

Chi Dao frowned when he saw Li Ge wearing his clothes. He calmly handed the box to the nanny and asked her to put it in the room.

Then he took a long step and sat next to Chi Xiao.

Chi Xiao felt someone suddenly approaching him. He glanced at him subconsciously and then listened attentively to Jiang Wan's words.

The two men were instantly in danger.

While Jiang Wan was drinking water because she said she was tired, Chi Dao immediately said, "I'll accompany you to Wang Qi's house to try on dresses tomorrow."

"Okay." This casual answer caused the two men next to him to look gloomy.

didn't say anything.

He is my brother, so it is only natural for me to go with him.

Chi Dao poured her a glass of juice and said to the man opposite: "You two get ready."

The words are correct, but the tone is wrong.

It sounds so flat and breathless, like a dead person.

Late at night, Jiang Wan was reluctant to go home. Before leaving, she forcibly pulled Li Ge away, leaving behind Li He who was pretending to be sick.

Chi Dao didn't like him and didn't say anything.

Li He was itching to stay in his sweetheart's house for the first time, and Chi Dao arranged for him to stay in the side room farthest from Chi Xiao's room.

One lives upstairs and the other lives downstairs.

He jumped out of the window like a cat, then climbed onto Chi Xiao's window and climbed in through the window while the person was taking a shower in the bathroom.

He was wearing pajamas properly and sitting on the sofa, waiting to greet people as soon as they came out.

"What a coincidence."

"..."

Chi Xiao glanced at the window and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"I'm bored, so I want to chat with you."

I'm afraid he has ulterior motives.

She was about to speak when there was a knock on the door.

"It's me." Chi Dao's voice.

Before Chi Xiao could kick Li He out, he threw himself onto her bed, turned over, and wrapped himself tightly in the quilt.

“…Hey! You…”

This guy did it on purpose!

Just as Chi Xiao was about to pull the person out, the door was pushed open.

"Is there anyone else in the room?" Chi Dao's eyes quickly locked onto the big bulge on the bed.

Chi Xiao smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.

My parents' room is next door to the one next door. If the old couple comes over and sees it, they will definitely misunderstand.

She simply remained silent.

"If your parents knew someone broke into your room, they would definitely have a bad first impression of that person. After all, the elderly are quite conservative." Chi Dao walked into the room wearing a black silk bathrobe and handed over the milk in his hand, "Warm. Have you been feeling unwell these days?"

Chi Xiao frowned, took it and drank two sips.

In a few days, it will be my period.

When she was a teenager, he would bring her milk every month, a few days before and after her period, whenever she was home.

When I was little, I didn’t think it was a big deal, but now that I’m so old, it’s a bit embarrassing.

"Thank you, second brother."

"Would you like me to sit down?"

"...Sit down." Chi Xiao threw the messy clothes on the sofa onto the bed.

Chi Dao didn't sit down immediately. "I haven't seen you for a long time. Will you be at home more often in the future?"

"I can't say for sure. I recently accepted a variety show and will be out shooting scenes from time to time."

"Yeah." He looked at Chi Xiao's hair that was still dripping with water, and moved closer to force him to sit on the bed, "I'll wipe your hair."

Chi Xiao subconsciously handed over the towel, then froze.

The towel rubbed her head gently and softly, making her heart rise.

"Second brother?"

"Ok?"

"Why did you come to see me?"

"Catch the thief." Chi Dao chuckled, "But the thief seems to have left. Mom and Dad were just muttering that today's guests are very strange. They haven't been here for years, and now there are three of them. I don't know if we didn't treat them well enough."

Chi Xiao was sweating profusely.

Li He, who was lying under the quilt, originally wanted to come out, but was so frightened by these words that he dared not move.

If this gets out and Chi Dao tells the elders about it, her image as a well-behaved and obedient person will be completely ruined.

"Xiaoxia?"

"...Ah, I think you're right."

"What do you think of these two today?"

Chi Xiao always felt something was wrong and asked, "What do you think?"

"Neither of them has good intentions."

Li He scowled under the quilt.

"I thought you were going to say something nice."

Chi Dao lowered his head and gently sniffed the scent of shampoo on her hair.

Even though we use the same shampoo, I always feel that hers smells better.

"You actually have other options."

Chi Xiao was not a very insensitive person. She had long ago keenly noticed that her two brothers had completely different attitudes towards her.

"Yeah, I've recently discovered that Xia Lin is pretty good too, interesting and fun."

Chi Dao paused while wiping his hair. "The Xia family has many illegitimate children, and many of them have become public. They are not clean."

She didn't know this, but her curiosity was aroused by his words.

"Explain it?"

"Old Master Xia was a playboy, marrying three concubines when he was young. Chairman Xia was also a playboy. After having Xia Lin and his sister, he completely let himself go. I know of two illegitimate children. Not long ago, one of them came to the office to consult about property issues.

But now, Xia Lin's sister is the one with the most say in the board of directors. Most of the illegitimate children who have not yet been exposed have been killed in secret. "
