I'm In Love With the Guy I Grew Up With-Chapter 885: Repayment 1

Xiao’s father let out a long sigh, saying nothing.

-

Outside the western restaurant.

Cheng Youran dragged Xiao Xichen to buy some medicine, had him sit on the edge of a flower bed, and carefully applied the medicine with a cotton swab.

"It’s just a small wound." He said with a smile, which pulled at the wound on the corner of his mouth, causing him to gasp in pain.

"Don’t think I don’t know, you did it on purpose to make your dad angry, didn’t you?" Cheng Youran had seen through everything.

Xiao Xichen was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Haha, you found out, Ruran, aren’t you touched?"

Cheng Youran quietly looked at him for a while, then leaned in and hugged him.

"You idiot..."

Hehe, Ruran felt sorry for him.

Xiao Xichen tugged at the corner of his lips, smiling as brightly as never before.

......

Ning Xixi propped her chin and waited for a long time without receiving a reply from Cheng Youran, eventually falling asleep herself.

Miaomiao hugged her cat pillow and came to sleep with Ning Xixi, and after staring at each other for a long time with her brother, Ji Yebai had no choice but to leave in discomfort to avoid suspicion.

With nothing better to do, Ji Yebai wandered to the room of Han Naisen, who had moved into the Ji Family a few days ago.

Han Naisen squatted in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, absent-mindedly stroking Oreo’s fur. Hearing footsteps, he raised his head and said, "Brother Dabai." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Hmm, have you finished your homework?" Ji Yebai found a topic.

Han Naisen nodded, "Mm! Finished! I even did Ji Yexing’s homework too!"

Ji Yebai: "...You shouldn’t spoil her too much."

But thinking about it, he had no right to lecture Han Naisen. When they were kids, whenever Ning Xixi wanted to watch cartoons and couldn’t finish her homework, it was him who helped her write it.

...

The next day.

Ning Xixi and Ji Yebai arrived at the film set. The two didn’t have many scenes in this drama and managed to wrap up all their parts from the morning until eight in the evening.

Though they were just supporting roles, the director still held a proper wrap party for them.

The location was a famous hot pot restaurant near the film city.

Unexpectedly, Wen Sinian’s crew also came here for a meal.

Due to Wen Sinian’s previous bullying of Ning Xixi, the Only Love You In This World crew didn’t look favorably upon him, and tensions between the two crews were palpable.

Xu Liuli clung to Wen Sinian’s arm, her smile radiant like a flower.

She covertly watched Ji Yebai’s movements, and seeing him step out to take a call, she softly said, "Sinian, drink less to protect your health. I’ve asked the kitchen to prepare some hangover soup for you. I’ll go get it now."

Wen Sinian looked touched, "Liuli, you’re so good to me."

Xu Liuli returned with the soup and, passing by Ning Xixi’s table, she held the tray with one hand and patted Ning Xixi’s shoulder with the other, "Xixi, you’re here too."

"Hmm?" Ning Xixi turned around, frowning when she saw her, "What do you want?"

Xu Liuli apologized, "I came to apologize for what happened last time. It was me being overly assertive. Please don’t take it to heart..."

This white lotus was quite something—overly assertive? Meaning she was right, and Ning Xixi was wrong?

"Unimportant people, unimportant matters, I never keep them in mind," Ning Xixi said coldly, successfully countering!

Xu Liuli said dejectedly, "Got it."

She stepped back just in time to bump into Ji Yebai as he returned to his seat, and the bowl of hangover soup in her hands spilled all over herself!

"Ah—" The entire restaurant echoed with Xu Liuli’s screams.
