Problematic Little Sister Fell In Love With Me

Chapter 449 - Inexplicable Anger

Chapter 449: Chapter 450 Inexplicable Anger

Sister Tiger was a quick-tempered and petty-minded woman. This was something that I have known about for a long time. But what I didn’t expect was that a hot-tempered person like her would also start a cold war with me!

I’d said sorry many times, but let alone answer me, she didn’t even look at me directly, which made me feel so frustrated. I was even ready for her to challenge me to a duel again.

“Elder Brother, did you quarrel with Elder Sister Xiaoye?” Before I could change my shoes after coming back from outside, Chu Yuan asked me.

I knew that Chu Yuan would find out that there was a problem between Dong Xiaoye and me, but I didn’t expect that she would spot it so quickly.

I deliberately chuckled helplessly and said: “Quarrel? I wish that was the case.”

Chu Yuan was dazed. She turned to look at Dong Xiaoye, who went straight to the refrigerator. Just when she wanted to ask Dong Xiaoye what happened, she saw her take out the iced still water, unscrew the lid, and gulp it down, finishing 550ml of water in the blink of an eye. The water was too cold, causing her to frown with a headache. After an inelegant burp, she who was still not satisfied took out another bottle of water.

However, because she drank it too quickly, she was choked by it just as she took the first sip of water and coughed repeatedly. Seeing this, Chu Yuan hurriedly ran to stroke her back, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, don’t drink too much, we are going to have dinner soon.”

Dongfang, who had just walked out of the kitchen, was also quite curious, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, did you just come back from the Sahara desert? Why are you so thirsty?”

Seeing that Sister Tiger was hesitant to answer Dongfang, I couldn’t hold back my resentment and grumbled, “She didn’t stop talking for the whole day, so of course she would be thirsty…”

Dong Xiaoye glanced back at me fiercely and snorted coldly, but unexpectedly, she held back her urge to scold me. She turned around to sit on the sofa and asked Dongfang: “What are we having for dinner? I’m starving…”

From her reaction, it seemed like she wanted to continue the cold war.

Chu Yuan frowned her delicate eyebrows and moved to Dong Xiaoye’s side, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, did my elder brother make you angry again?”

“No, how can it be? It was me who made him angry,” Dong Xiaoye’s tone was obviously ironic. After pulling Chu Yuan to sit down, she laid down, resting her head on Chu Yuan’s legs. While hugging her small waist, she buried her face in her belly, and acted like a kid, “Yuan Yuan, please comfort your elder sister. Your elder sister is upset~”

This woman said one thing but did another thing. In the end, she still blamed me. But… What she said wasn’t wrong. What I said today was indeed too unkind. so I calmly caught the sofa cushion that Chu Yuan threw at my face.

Dongfang also imitated Chu Yuan, trying to stand up for Dong Xiaoye, but the thing she threw over terrified me so much that I hurriedly lowered my head. That thing flew over me, almost scratching my head. It slammed on the security door and caused a loud sound that echoed in the entire stairway.

“You little brat! Do you want to kill me? Do you know that metal ladle is also very lethal?”

“Oops, it’s my instinct!” Dongfang argued: “I was making porridge just now, and that was the only thing in my hand, so …”

“Should I thank you for not cutting vegetables just now?”

“That’s not necessary, if it is a kitchen knife, I think I will think about it before throwing it.”

“…”

Dongfang stood with arms akimbo and her back straight, not showing any sign of guilt and regret, “Anyway, you deserve it. Who asked you to bully a woman?”

Originally, Chu Yuan and Dong Xiaoye had also been startled by the noise just now, but after hearing what Dongfang little brat said, the worries on their faces immediately disappeared.

The two bratty girls sided with Dong Xiaoye, treating me like an enemy. I couldn’t help smiling bitterly.

It is really difficult to get along with women. Not only are they petty-minded, but they are also not very forgiving. It seemed like before Dong Xiaoye forgave me, I would have to suffer…

. . .

Two days had passed since I told Min Rou that I wanted to meet the Third Lady. The strange thing was that Ziyuan has not yet asked me for confirmation. Ziyuan was always a passive person. If she knew that I wanted to take the initiative, she would definitely oppose it.

Since she didn’t say anything to me, it meant that she did not know that I had made a request to meet with the Third Lady. If this was the case, then two possibilities could be drawn. First, Min Rou actually didn’t take my request seriously; she just agreed to me perfunctorily. Second, in the eyes of the Third Lady and Min Rou, Ziyuan’s role wasn’t that important, so there was no need to tell her everything.

The possibility of the first possibility was smaller. After all, although the cunning and sly Min Rou was proficient in all kinds of tricks, they were all built on the basis of ‘concealing’. She had never gotten back on her words before. This probably had something to do with the Third Lady, the woman who she admired. After all, in her mind, the Third Lady would also never go back on her words.

Since the first possibility was unlikely, then it was only left with the second possibility. Ziyuan’s role wasn’t that important and they didn’t take her seriously. In fact, this could be seen from Ziyuan’s low self-esteem attitude. However, this also made me wonder that since her role wasn’t important, what was the purpose of arranging for her to join Fengchang?

Min Rou said using Ziyuan was the Third Lady’s revenge against me, but so far, apart from what happened that night, she hasn’t done anything. She hadn’t ruined my relationship with Liusu and Mo Fei, nor did she show any sign that she would do it. Instead, she was acting like a complete outsider, as if she didn’t want to create trouble for anyone…

As for the Third Lady, I became more and more curious. How exactly did I offend her, and why would she want to both help me and create trouble for me? The most important thing was that what exactly was Ziyuan to them? A valuable chess piece, or a chess piece that could be discarded at will…

On Friday afternoon, Team Leader Elder Sister Liu was notified to attend a meeting, but when I went to the toilet and passed the financing team, I noticed that Dong Xiaoye was surrounded by a group of men exactly like what had happened yesterday. Amongst those men, there was Lu Hao as well.

“Cousin, so you are here…”

Seeing that it was me, Dong Xiaoye’s face turned cold at first, but then immediately she put on a smiling face, “What’s the matter, cousin?”

She asked sweetly, but there wasn’t any trace of genuine smiles in her eyes. She was still angry at what I said yesterday. I knew she was doing it for me, but I still couldn’t help but feel annoyed when she chatted with other men like this.

Originally, I had decided to ignore it, thinking that as long as I didn’t pay attention to it, I would not feel annoyed. However, I just couldn’t help myself but wanted to check what she was doing with the men in the financing team. Because of this, I used the excuse of going to the bathroom more than fifteen times. It even made Brother Wei ask me if I was okay…

The last few times I could still bear it, but when I saw Dong Xiaoye laughing and placing her hand on Lu Hao’s shoulder, I finally couldn’t bear it and unconsciously went into the financing group.

It was fine if she wanted to chat with other men, but there was no need for physical contact, right?

“Huh? Chu Nan, you came here just at the right time,” A handsome man next to Lu Hao smiled at me: “We just agreed to go to ‘Edinburgh’ for two drinks after work with Cousin Dong, so do you want to join us?”

While smiling, this damn guy also put her hand on Dong Xiaoye’s shoulder. Although he said those words to me, he was looking at Lu Hao provocatively. Obviously, those two guys were secretly competing for Dong Xiaoye.

I remembered that this guy was called Hao Shuai, and he has been in Fengchang for less than three months. His father was one of the company’s shareholders, so he was temporarily learning in the financing team. Although his position was low, he was not afraid of Lu Hao. Song Jia once said that Hao Shuai was indeed handsome, but sadly he was a typical spoiled child of a rich family. It could be seen from the way he behaved. It was said that he had graduated from a university abroad, however, he didn’t show any abilities at work. Instead, he often bragged about his background and used it to pick up girls.

Song Jia had a close friend who worked as an English translator in the investment department. However, only after she slept with him did she finally find out that this so-called overseas graduate couldn’t speak any English.

Seeing that Dong Xiaoye could even hang out with this kind of guy, I felt even more annoyed; even though I knew that I didn’t have the right to decide who she should hang out with.

“Thanks, but I can’t go, nor can she go,” I pushed away Hao Shuai, grabbed Dong Xiaoye’s hand, and pulled her away, “Liusu is looking for you, come with me.”

“Wait!”

Although my action had made all the men around Dong Xiaoye angry, no one dared to say anything. After all, I had fought with my colleagues many times before, and almost all of them knew about it. In addition, I was Dong Xiaoye’s “cousin”, so Lu Hao and others could only stay silent. But Hao Shuai’s reaction was completely different. He grabbed Dong Xiaoye’s other hand and said, “Chu Nan, What right do you have to decide what she can do?”

What right do I have? If she was happy to do it, naturally I would not say anything. But if she was forcing herself to do it, then I would not ignore it! . . After hearing what he said, a wave of inexplicable anger surged within me. I couldn’t help but blurt out, “Do you even know why she came here during her day off?”
