182 [Bonus chapter]I Like My Brother More

Bai Qi paid for their dinner.

Initially, Zhang Li Xue planned to treat them since she was the one who suggested having dinner together. However, seeing the look on Bai Qi’s face, she decided not to argue.

Anyway, she could always use this as an excuse to ask them out again.

The corner of her lips tilted into a smile. Zhang Li Xue thought that coming up with this idea was pretty good.

The trio left the noodle shop together and Zhang Li Xue walked them back to their apartment as her car was parked nearby.

Zhang Li Xue heaved a sigh, thinking that the time she spent with Bai Qi was too short.

It was rare for Bai Xi Xi to be out at this time. Considering that she will have to sleep early and head over to school tomorrow, Zhang Li Xue suggested for they send her back to the apartment first.

As Bai Qi too was unwilling to part with his little fairy, he decided to follow her suggestion.

“Pretty Sister, you have to promise to come over and look for me again,” Bai Xi Xi spoke, knowing that it was time for them to part.

.....

Zhang Li Xue laughed. She stretched her hand and patted the girl on her hair. “Un. I promise.”

“You can come over and see Xi Xi whenever you liked even when I’m not around,” Bai Qi said. “I will let Auntie Ji know that you would accompany Xi Xi.”

Zhang Li Xue looked at the tall man in front of her. “Do you mean to say that you trust me with your little sister?”

“Of course.”

“Xi Xi is too cute. What if I kidnapped her?”

Bai Qi saw the teasing look in her eyes and chuckled.

The voice in his head was saying that it would be better for her to kidnap the brother too. However, those were not the words that Bai Qi would dare to say out loud.

“Pretty Sister...”

Bai Xi Xi’s voice broke their eye contact.

The little girl held her brother’s hand tightly while looking at her with her bright eyes. “I like you, but I like my brother a lot more.”

There was a brief silence between them before both Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi burst into laughter.

Bai Qi pinched his sister lightly on the cheek. He was happy to know that his little sister picked his side. But as for liking...

His gaze shifted to the little fairy. His feelings for Zhang Li Xue were something more than familial love.

In the beginning, he was entranced by her cuteness and wanted her attention. But soon, her kindness and friendship touched him so much that he was unable to forget her even after years of not seeing each other.

Bai Qi could only apologize to his sister in his heart. He could not expect his little sister to understand his feeling at her age.

“Alright. Xi Xi, you should go back to your room and prepare to sleep first,” Bai Qi said. “You still have to go to school tomorrow.”

“Oh.” Bai Xi Xi nodded before turning to Zhang Li Xue again. There was a hint of anxiety in her eyes. “Pretty Sister, please come over again. I still like you a lot.”

The little girl was suddenly worried that her Pretty Sister would stop coming over to play with her just because of her words earlier.

Zhang Li Xue smiled.

Of course, she did not mind the little girl’s words. She was not trying to compete with Bai Qi.

“Un. I know. I will definitely come over and play with Xi Xi again.”

Bai Xi Xi smiled brightly upon hearing her words. It was only now that she felt more at ease.

The little girl bid her goodbye.

Habitually, Bai Qi walked Zhang Li Xue to her car. They walked down the stairs in silence while trying to figure out what they should say before it was time for Zhang Li Xue to leave.

Bai Qi heaved a sigh when he could already see Zhang Li Xue’s AUDI from a distance.

Time seemed to move so fast whenever he was with his little fairy.

“Thank you for coming over and accompanying Xi Xi,” Bai Qi spoke before they reached her car.

Zhang Li Xue turned to meet his gaze. “It’s alright.”

Bai Qi tightened his hand into a fist, thinking of a way to delay her return.

“Then, tomorrow, will you have to work the night shift?”

“Uh-huh.” Bai Qi nodded. “When I have to work on the night shift, Xi Xi would usually stay at the landlord’s house. Although Xi Xi is older enough, I still could not be at ease to let her stay at home alone.”

“You are right. It is safer for Xi Xi to stay under adult supervision, especially at night.”

“If you want to see Xi Xi again, tell me. I will let Auntie Ji know that you’re someone we could trust.”

Zhang Li Xue smiled. “Then, what if I wanted to look for you?”

Bai Qi looked at the girl in front of him in surprise. His heartbeat gradually accelerated.

He suppressed that feeling and cleared his throat. “Of course, you can come over and find me whenever you want.” Bai Qi hesitated for a while before continuing, “But, I might not always be free. If I did not reply to your message quickly, then I should be busy.”

“Then, what if I wanted to look for you tomorrow? Will that be alright?”

Bai Qi began to feel that there was something strange, but he quickly suppressed that feeling away.

In his mind, he was just someone who would not be able to provide anything for her. There was no way for someone like Zhang Li Xue would like him.

Bai Qi quickly made an excuse that this was merely two friends getting together to catch up.

“Then, can you accompany me for a meal?” Zhang Li Xue said. “I will bring something for both of us. We can have our meal at the cafeteria or something.”

“Why?” Bai Qi could not help but ask.

“You still have to eat dinner tomorrow, right?” Zhang Li Xue smiled. “I just thought that I enjoyed spending time and chatting with you about a lot of things.”

His heart skipped a beat. Bai Qi wanted to say something, but the questions he wanted to ask were stuck in his throat.

“Then, I will see you again tomorrow.” Zhang Li Xue did not give him any chance to reject her. She quickly entered her vehicle and waved her hand before driving home.
