Chapter 129 It’s not easy to be my younger brother
Only then did Xu Xiaoyan stop crying.
She quickly wiped away her tears and forced a smile, "Sun Yu, then I won't cry."
"Xu Xiaoyan, you look really ugly when you're crying and being so cowardly. Can't you just be more graceful?"
Sun Yu frowned and said disdainfully, "My sister and the others haven't treated you and your mother badly. Why do you still look so poor? If others don't know, they might think the Xu family is mean and bullying you and your mother."
Out of consideration for their distant relative, the Xu family arranged for Xu Xiaoyan's mother to be admitted to the intensive care unit, which was very expensive. If it were another family, they would have kicked her out to fend for herself long ago.
So it’s good enough.
Xu Xiaoyan listened to the scolding and subconsciously lowered her head. She apologized immediately: "Sun Yu, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I..."
"Xu Xiaoyan, that's enough. Don't listen to Sun Yu's nonsense."
Xu Yi glared at Sun Yu and interrupted Xu Xiaoyan, saying, "She didn't mean to criticize you. She just wanted you to live a happier life."
Xu Xiaoyan nodded obediently.
"Shu Mowan said you wanted to commit suicide. What's going on?"
Xu Yi asked about this matter. "I was the one who decided to transfer Auntie to the intensive care unit. Didn't I promise to consider asking Shu Mowan to see her? Why are you still so upset?"
After being scolded and taught a lesson by Shu Mowan, she became much more restrained and had some compassion. So when she saw that Xu Xiaoyan's mother was more seriously ill, she decided to change to a better hospital and arranged for her to be admitted to the intensive care unit. She even considered whether she should put her face aside and ask Shu Mowan for help.
Xu Xiaoyan lowered her head even lower and said embarrassedly, "Sister Xu Yi, I thought you were just talking, so..."
Xu Yi thought about his previous willfulness and unreasonableness, and it was no wonder that Xu Xiaoyan thought so.
"Forget it, let this matter pass. Don't think about it again in the future."
Xu Yi waved his hand.
Xu Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded obediently.
"I think Shu Mowan treats you very well. Can you say a few good words for me in front of her?"
Xu Yi coughed lightly and said a little embarrassedly.
When Xu Xiaoyan looked up at her in confusion, she pretended to be arrogant and said, "I'm not trying to please her. I just want to make our relationship better and not be as bad as before."
After all, Shu Mowan is a thousand-year-old tree spirit. If the relationship is too strained, she is afraid that it will affect the development of the Xu family.
Xu Xiaoyan understood what she said and agreed.
"Sister Xu Yi, I will help you put in a good word for Miss Shu."
Xu Xiaoyan said obediently: "But I don't know if she will listen."
"Just say it."
Xu Yi didn't expect Xu Xiaoyan's words to have much effect. "Okay, go back and rest. Auntie, I'll take care of you today."
Xu Xiaoyan was flattered, but still hesitated and asked, "Sister Xu Yi, will this be too tiring for you?"
"Not tired."
Xu Yi ordered Sun Yu, "Sun Yu, send her back."
Sun Yu agreed, but before leaving, she reminded Xu Yi: "Sister, when Miss Shu comes out, don't forget to say a few good words for me."
"I know, you can give it to someone without worry."
Xu Yi made a solemn promise.
After the two left, Xu Yi stayed outside obediently and did not move even when Shu Mowan brought people in to perform the operation.
She waited until evening before Shu Mowan came out with a tired look on her face.
"Shu Mowan, are you tired? Are you thirsty?"
Xu Yi came forward and said, "I asked someone to buy you some food and drinks. Would you mind eating some for your honor?"
Shu Mowan looked at her suspiciously, "Did you poison the food?"
Otherwise, how could he change from being so aggressive to being so flattering?
"Shu Mowan, I haven't seen you for a while. I didn't expect you to become more humorous and witty."
Xu Yi said embarrassedly.
Shu Mowan just looked at her calmly.
"Shu Mowan, don't worry, I didn't poison it, I just..."
Xu Yi chose his words carefully, "I just want to be friends with you, is that okay?"
"reason?"
Shu Mowan raised an eyebrow.
"You are beautiful and powerful, and I heard that you are going to be adopted as Mr. Yang's goddaughter. I don't want to go against you anymore."
Xu Yi gave the reason.
Shu Mowan crossed her arms and smiled, "Miss Xu, there should be more reasons than these, right?"
There was a rumor not long ago that Old Yang wanted to adopt her as his goddaughter. Given the Xu family's sources of information, it was hard to believe that Xu Yi had not heard of it.
"Isn't it because you're a thousand-year-old tree spirit who can crush me to death with just one finger that I now realize how ignorant I was before?"
Xu Yi smiled awkwardly.
When Shu Mowan was adopted by the Shu family, she dared to go against them, but when she suddenly turned into a thousand-year-old tree spirit, she was really scared.
A ten thousand year old monster is even older than the five thousand year history. She is so bold as to go against the real ancestor. She is really tired of living.
Shu Mowan raised her hand and pinched her brow, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Do you really believe it?"
"Believe."
Xu Yi took it for granted, "If you weren't a thousand-year-old tree spirit, how could you know everything at such a young age?"
Even a genius can't do this.
Shu Mowan looked at her deeply, raised his hand and patted her shoulder: "Miss Xu, you finally have some good sense."
"Just call me by my name."
Xu Yi raised the bag and asked, "Would you be so kind as to eat these?"
Shu Mowan was about to take it when she saw her raise her hand and pat her head, "Look at me, I forgot that you are a thousand-year-old tree spirit and don't need to eat."
As she said that, she trotted to the trash can and threw the bag away.
"..."
Shu Mowan looked at her quick movements, circled her lips with the tip of his tongue, and almost laughed out of anger.
She was certain that Xu Yi was a monkey transformed specifically to tease her.
"Shu...Oh, no, ancestor, you don't need to eat. Do you want to meditate facing the moon and absorb the essence of the sun and the moon?"
Xu Yi came back jogging, and even the way he addressed Shu Mowan changed.
Shu Mowan, who is not even twenty-one, is happy to be addressed as ancestor. She feels that she has been called old by Xu Yi.
"Xu Yi, you should read less immortality novels in the future. They are all lies."
Shu Mowan gritted her teeth and said, "I'm just like a normal person. I eat when I need to eat and sleep when I need to sleep. Do you understand?"
If she didn't eat, drink, defecate and urinate, she would have starved to death long ago.
Xu Yi scratched his head, looking a bit silly: "Grandfather, I didn't know that monsters also need to eat."
Shu Mowan almost laughed out loud.
"Xu Yi, don't call me ancestor in front of others from now on, and don't tell others that I'm a thousand-year-old monster. Got it?"
She suppressed her laughter and warned.
They were afraid that Xu Yi would foolishly spread the word that she was a thousand-year-old monster, which would alarm the higher-ups, so they sent people down to capture her and dissect her as a rare specimen.
Jokes are jokes, but just keep them in private.
Xu Yi almost raised her hand and swore that she would never tell anyone about it.
"Grandfather, I'm already learning about body shape, posture, and acting skills from all the teachers. When I win an award based on my own abilities, can you personally come on stage and present it to me?"
Xu Yi carefully made a request to Shu Mowan, "I just want to tell everyone that I have your approval."
"sure."
Shu Mowan agreed readily.
It is better for Xu Yineng to work hard to climb up the social ladder than to be a willful and spoiled rich girl.
"When you win the award, I'll tell my people that you're my new little brother."
Shu Mowan assured her, "They are all protective of their own shortcomings. As long as you have any problems, they will help you."
My little brother...
Xu Yi's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Thank you, ancestor. I will behave well."
She expressed her determination.
Shu Mowan patted her shoulder again.
"Xu Xiaoyan looks pretty good. Once she's fatter, I'd like to send her into the entertainment industry. Do you have any objections?"
Shu Mowan told Xu Yi about Xu Xiaoyan's future career plan.
Xu Xiaoyan is prone to low self-esteem, so she sent her into the entertainment industry to build her confidence.
Xu Yi was startled and said carefully: "Grandpa, she doesn't even dare to speak loudly. How can she enter the cannibalistic entertainment industry?"
"Do you doubt my ability to train people?"
Shu Mowan raised an eyebrow and asked.
"No, no, I'm just afraid that her timid and inferior appearance will make you angry."
Xu Yi rubbed his hands and explained.
After all, Xu Xiaoyan is nominally linked to the Xu family. If she really angers Shu Mowan, won’t the Xu family suffer?
Shu Mowan waved his hand, "Don't worry about that. No one who has been through my hands is unconfident."
Xu Yi naturally trusted Shu Mowan's abilities.
"Grandfather, can I sign for you together with Xiaoyan?"
Xu Yi smiled apologetically and said, "The one with my agent, she's quite powerful in the entertainment industry."
"You can if you want."
Shu Mowan had no objection.
Xu Yi was so surprised that he wanted to jump up and cheer.
Now that she is in Shu Mowan's hands, how far can she be from reaching the pinnacle of acting?
Seeing her expression as if she were dreaming about receiving the award, Shu Mowan poured cold water on her: "Xu Yi, I'm notoriously strict. I don't allow anyone to slack off during training. Are you sure you can handle it?"
