After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 403 - 401: Are You Angry?
Chapter 403: Chapter 401: Are You Angry?
Pei Huai didn’t look at Xia Wenyan again; instead, he spoke to himself, "Then do you think you can act it out in front of Zhaozhao?"
"..."
Xia Wenyan seemed to be stuck all of a sudden.
He had genuine feelings for his precious little sister; how could he possibly mix acting into that?
Upon thinking this, Xia Wenyan instantly understood.
He looked at Pei Huai with a look of admiration, "Brother Pei, you really do think ahead!"
Pei Huai raised his hand to touch the tip of his nose, and casually said, "Save the flattery for later; go make your phone call first."
"Got it, I got it!"
After finishing his words, Xia Wenyan immediately mustered up some emotions and started making the call—
The moment the call was answered on the other end, Xia Wenyan opened his mouth, "Zhaozhao, it’s me. It’s an emergency, your fourth brother is waiting for you to save him."
Lu Zhaozhao glanced at her phone with a puzzled face, hearing Xia Wenyan’s slightly tearful voice caused her eyebrows to frown involuntarily, "Fourth Brother, don’t panic, tell me what’s going on slowly."
Xia Wenyan, who has always been fearless, the sky could fall and still not a wrinkle on his brow, was almost crying now?
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she began to worry faintly.
Song Sinian, who was by her side, slowly walked over and wrapped his arms around her slender waist from behind.
His cheek rested against the nape of Lu Zhaozhao’s neck, positioned perfectly to hear her conversation on the phone.
"Avril went to our house, and mom said I should come back. I feel like the odds are not in my favor." Xia Wenyan, following the method Pei Huai had given him, briefly informed Lu Zhaozhao of the situation.
Lu Zhaozhao nearly blurted out immediately, "I’ll swing by the Xia Family later too. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be on your side."
Upon hearing this, Xia Wenyan was so delighted he almost jumped on the spot, but luckily Pei Huai pressed down on his shoulder to prevent him from becoming too exuberant.
He took a deep breath to suppress the excitement in his heart, mumbling, "My life and death are in your hands, Zhaozhao. I would rather die than marry that woman Avril!"
Xia Wenyan’s words carried a hint of gritting teeth when he reached this point.
"Don’t worry, even if you want to, I don’t." Lu Zhaozhao spoke softly, comforting Xia Wenyan.
In fact, she was serious.
Someone like Avril, who was only interested in personal gain, didn’t fit the Xia Family’s style at all.
Xia Wenyan didn’t like her either, yet she was still eagerly trying to marry into the Xia Family, just the thought of it gave her a headache.
With these words from Lu Zhaozhao, Xia Wenyan was completely reassured.
"Then I’ll head home first, and later Four Brother will be waiting for your rescue." Xia Wenyan’s words were a bit nasal, but somehow they sounded more pleasant than before.
Indeed, crying and whining were really not suitable for Xia Wenyan.
Lu Zhaozhao hung up the phone and realized Song Sinian was still clinging to her.
She shook her back lightly, "Sinian, let go of me first, I need to get ready to go to the Xia Family."
"I don’t want to." Song Sinian almost cut her off with his refusal, which took her by surprise.
In her memory, Song Sinian was almost always willing to satisfy her requests; this kind of reaction was really rare.
She looked at him doubtfully, raising her eyebrows, and turned her head to look at Song Sinian on the side, speaking faintly, "Are you angry?"
Song Sinian gently shook his head, his nose nuzzling against the nape of her neck.
Seeing that Song Sinian hadn’t spoken, Lu Zhaozhao tentatively asked another question, "So... do you not want me to go to the Xia Family alone?"
"..."
Song Sinian remained silent, yet his hand holding Lu Zhaozhao suddenly tightened.
It seemed that was the issue.
Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes suddenly curved into a smile, and she raised her hand to rub Song Sinian’s head, "If you’re not busy, could you accompany me to the Xia Family? I might not be able to handle my fourth brother’s issue..."
As she spoke, she looked at Song Sinian with feigned pitifulness.
As if she had truly encountered some immense difficulty.
Song Sinian knew that he was currently being childish, but Lu Zhaozhao was indulging him.
She was so overt in her indulgence that it made him, a grown man, feel somewhat embarrassed.
He let out a silent sigh and kissed Lu Zhaozhao on the cheek, "I’ll have Zhao Xi get the car ready. You wait at home for me, don’t rush, I’ve got everything under control."
"Okay, my Mr. Song," Lu Zhaozhao smiled warmly at him, deliberately emphasizing the word "my."
Song Sinian slightly curved the corners of his lips before he finally turned and left the room.
As soon as he stepped out, he took out his phone and sent a message to Pei Huai, "Don’t come troubling Zhaozhao with your damn issues in the future."
Then he followed it with another message, "I’ve had Zhao Xi compile information on all the places Avril frequents and the people she can contact, and sent it to you. Find someone quickly to lure this woman away, and don’t let her keep flitting around under Zhaozhao’s nose."
Pei Huai was sitting on the sofa in the living room when he received the message.
As expected, Song Sinian had seen through the fact that he had sent Xia Wenyan to find Lu Zhaozhao.
Pei Huai looked at the stack of documents that had appeared in his inbox, his eyebrows raised slightly, but this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
At least he had obtained Avril’s information.
Although he had resources at his disposal, getting all of Avril’s information in such a short time was certainly not as efficient as from Song Sinian’s side.
Luckily for him, Avril, oblivious to her fate, had previously offended Lu Zhaozhao, otherwise Song Sinian would never have intervened.
Pei Huai’s eyelids drooped as he finally tapped out a line on his phone, "With President Song’s help, this matter will surely be handled smoothly."
"..."
When Xia Wenyan returned home, Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian hadn’t arrived yet, but his three brothers were already there.
Seeing Xia Wenyan enter, Xia Wenjue, Xia Wenqing, and Xia Wenmo all looked at him with a trace of sympathy.
They had heard that Avril was back, and initially didn’t care much.
But hearing that she had made a scene at the Xia Family, insisting that she had been bullied by Xia Wenyan and demanding him to take responsibility, the three of them had a hard time staying calm.
They all disliked Avril, and if someone like her entered the Xia Family, living under the same roof with them, it would be the end of the Xia Family.
Every year, Avril used to stay at their place for a while, and they couldn’t avoid her fast enough, let alone living under the same roof in the future.
That would truly be a fate worse than death.
Sensing their sympathetic gazes, he couldn’t help but purse his lips, "Mom, I’m back."
"Xia Wenyan, you heartless thing, you bully me and refuse to take responsibility, waaaah..." As soon as Xia Wenyan spoke, Avril immediately stepped forward and unleashed a barrage of accusations at him.
Xia Wenyan’s temper flared instantly, "What do you mean ’bully you’? Have some shame, okay? I’ve never even touched a finger of yours. I hardly ever see you, how could I bully you? Stop trying to pin your crap on me!"
