Shocking! A haughty and arrogant older sister was relentlessly pinned against a wall by a cold and a
Chapter 11 Please don't make things difficult for her.
After the meal, Cheng Ai leaned back comfortably in her chair, rubbed her bloated belly, frowned and sighed softly, "If I keep eating like this, I'll soon become as fat as a pig."
She turned her bright almond-shaped eyes and shouted towards the kitchen, "Xiaolin, let's make dumplings tonight. Ye Jingke hasn't been eating well these days, I want to help him recover."
"No way!" Li Xiaolin refused decisively. "I have to go back to the hospital this afternoon, otherwise my boss will kill me!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ai ran to the kitchen, pitifully took her arm, and pouted, pleading, "Sister Xiaolin~ please promise me~ we'll make dumplings together~ okay~ please~"
Li Xiaolin resisted the urge to slap her, remained silent for a moment, and then gritted her teeth to squeeze out a single word, "Fine."
"Yay! That's awesome!" Cheng Ai cheered excitedly, hugging her and rubbing against her. "Sister Xiaolin, I love you!"
Li Xiaolin was exasperated and took a big step back in disgust. "Don't get in my way and delay me from washing the dishes. Get out of here."
"Yes, ma'am!" Cheng Ai gave a playful salute, skipped out of the kitchen, and dashed into the bedroom.
Watching her lively and cheerful figure from behind, Li Xiaolin was furious and took out her phone to call her husband.
Even though Ye Jingke asked me to come and take care of Cheng Ai, I can't treat her like a donkey, can I?
Six o'clock in the afternoon.
Before Ye Jingke and Lü Hanmo even entered the room, they could hear a cacophony of voices coming from inside:
"Xiaolin, is my skin a bit too thick?"
"It's so sticky! Quick, sprinkle some flour on it."
"How do I pinch the lace? Damn! I should have bought a dumpling wand!"
Realizing it was Cheng Ai, Lü Hanmo frowned unhappily, "Even if that girl is your savior, you can't let her bully people like that, can you?"
Ye Jingke didn't say anything, but took out his keys, opened the door, and changed his shoes.
Upon seeing him, Cheng Ai quickly put down the rolling pin and went to greet him, her eyes widening in surprise. "You're back so early! We haven't even finished cooking yet."
"No rush." Seeing her rush over without any apparent sign of distress, Ye Jingke glanced at her buttocks, then stepped aside to reveal the man standing behind her. "Let me introduce you. This is Lü Hanmo, my good brother, and also Xiaolin's husband."
"Hello, Brother Lü." Although Cheng Ai greeted him, her gaze remained fixed on the black bag in Ye Jingke's hand.
Lu Hanmo took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, and strode towards Li Xiaolin. "Wife, you rest, I'll help you."
He deliberately spoke these words very loudly, hoping that the two people in the entryway would know his dissatisfaction.
But Ye Jingke ignored him. He first wiped the flour off Cheng Ai's face, then handed her the bag and said in a low voice, "It contains everything you need. If it's not enough, I'll get more another day."
Cheng Ai nodded, took it, and ran to the bedroom.
Seeing this, Lü Hanmo finally couldn't hold back any longer and exploded, "Jingke, it's not that I'm being nosy, it's just that Cheng Ai has gone too far."
Honestly, I never let Xiaolin into the kitchen at home, but that girl is different. Not only does she make her wash dishes and cook, she also forces her to skip work. Is that reasonable?
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiaolin awkwardly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Don't be angry, I've already asked the boss for a day off."
Lu Hanmo patted the back of her hand and coaxed her softly, "Wife, don't say anything. Today I must help you get justice."
Li Xiaolin lowered her eyes and shut her mouth in annoyance.
If she had known earlier that her husband was coming back with Ye Jingke, she would never have called to complain that afternoon.
Ye Jingke's expression remained unchanged, but his tone was somewhat cold, "You came in and started making dumplings? Did you wash your hands?"
"Ah!" Lu Hanmo slapped his forehead and explained with an embarrassed laugh, "I was so busy being angry that I forgot."
The next moment, the two grown men headed to the restroom together.
Ye Jingke remained calm throughout, only slowly raising his head the moment the tap was turned off. "For my sake, please don't make things difficult for Ai Ai when she comes downstairs, okay?"
Lu Hanmo stared in shock, his eyes wide with disbelief. "You're going to plead for a girl you've only known for less than three days? Are you serious?"
Seeing Ye Jingke's tightly pursed lips and deep, serious eyes, he nodded through gritted teeth, "Since you've put it this way, if I don't agree, wouldn't I seem petty?"
Ye Jingke nodded slightly as a way of thanking him.
"But don't get too excited yet." Lu Hanmo changed the subject, his smile turning insincere. "My wife has been suffering all day, you have to give me something in return, right?"
Ye Jingke raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsurprised. He slowly took out his wallet, pulled out a business card, and handed it over. "I won't compete with you for that piece of land in Linjiang City. In addition, I will invest 200 million in your new project. Is that enough sincerity?"
Lu Hanmo's eyes lit up instantly. He quickly grabbed the business card and eagerly examined it.
After confirming it was real, he immediately put it away and hid it close to his body, grinning from ear to ear, "Jingke, just for this gift, as long as Cheng Ai doesn't bully my wife, even if she causes a major upheaval, I'll protect her."
Watching Ye Jingke and Lü Hanmo return to the living room arm in arm, Li Xiaolin breathed a sigh of relief and continued making dumplings with lingering fear.
Fortunately, the two brothers didn't have a falling out, otherwise she would have been in serious trouble.
Not long after, Cheng Ai also came out of the bedroom.
She changed into a sky-blue floral sundress, her hair was tied back with a jade hairpin, and her natural beauty was breathtaking. Even Lu Hanmo, who had been married, couldn't help but swallow hard.
Ye Jingke stared at her intently, completely oblivious to the dumpling wrapper falling to the ground.
Li Xiaolin already knew how beautiful the other person was, so she only glanced at her twice before continuing to knead the dough.
Cheng Ai didn't go downstairs. She stood at the bottom of the stairs, waved, and called out, "Ye Jingke, come here for a moment."
Realizing that he was being called, Ye Jingke snapped back to his senses and hurriedly strode up to the second floor.
Cheng Ai pulled him back to the bedroom, closed the door, and frowned so deeply she could have strangled a mosquito.
Ye Jingke wanted to pinch her cheek, but his hands were covered in flour, so he had to give up. "What's wrong? Did I buy something wrong?"
Cheng Ai shook her head, looked up and stared directly into his eyes, and said seriously, "I suspect that Brother Lü and Sister Xiaolin are going to get into trouble."
Ye Jingke was shocked and was about to ask for clarification when she heard her continue, "When I saw Sister Xiaolin today, there was an infant spirit clinging to her shoulder."
I thought leaving her here would ensure her safety, but just now the infant spirit jumped from Sister Xiaolin to Brother Lü's head.
If Xiaolin attracted the infant spirit from the hospital, then it would never have any connection with Brother Lü, unless…”
