With a gasp, Shi Xi suddenly awakened from her sleep, outside the brilliant sunlight was already high.
Shi Xi wiped off the cold sweat on her face, embraced the quilt, and gradually sat up. However, her body felt as if it was run over by a heavy truck, with aching pain everywhere, and between her legs…
The memories of last night abruptly came back to her, and Shi Xi’s originally rosy face turned stark white in just a few seconds.
She abruptly threw off the quilt, rushed naked to the bathroom.
The numerous traces of kisses and bruises on her body reminded her of that man's violent actions last night!
"Ah!!!" Even the always calm and cool Shi Xi couldn't help but vent her fury and humiliations to the point of craziness. She roared in fury and everything in the bathroom was swept to the floor
Meanwhile, Ji Su Han and the other two, who were leisurely awakened on the sofa outside heard Shi Xi's shout and were immediately brought to consciousness.
"Little Xi Xi, open the door!" Ji Su Han knocked on Shi Xi's room door with his eyebrows furrowed.
"I’ll go find the waiter for the spare key." Lu Lixing turned and left.
"Me too!" Ji Su Kai also became anxious.
Just as the two were leaving, the door suddenly opened. The neatly dressed Shi Xi walked out of the room with a stern face.
Looking at Ji Su Han, she finally managed to hold her trembling hands together: "Ji bastard, take me to the hotel's surveillance room!"
"Ok." Ji Su Han fixed his eyes on the red mark on Shi Xi’s neck, his eyes suddenly grew apprehensive.
"I'm sorry, Miss Shi, Young Master Ji, we don’t know why, but the hotel’s surveillance footage from yesterday was artificially destroyed. With our current technology, I'm afraid it will be difficult to restore."
After leaving the Longya Grand Hotel that day, this sentence kept lingering in Shi Xi's head - who possesses such capability, to come and go unnoticed in the largest hotel in Canghai City leaving no traces? And why would such a man choose her?!
One day, two months later, at the Shi family dinner table, Shi Zhengnan leaned over, affectionately pinching her nose, "Xixi, what are you daydreaming about?"
Shi Xixi suddenly came back to reality, looking at the man in front of her who was gentle as jade and had loved and taken care of her since childhood, her voice unintentionally softened, "Brother Zhengnan..." She was just a girl who had just turned eighteen, experiencing such an event, she was equally anxious and at a loss.
"Have you been bullied?" Shi Zhengnan couldn't help but ask, he had noticed that Xixi had been frequently lost in thought these past few days.
"Enough, brother, no one in Canghai City would dare to bully Sister Xixi with you protecting her." Shi Xiang, who had just come down the stairs, looked at the scene and couldn't help but speak, "Brother, shouldn't you remember that I'm your real sister? If you treated me half as well as you treat Sister Xixi, I'd be smiling even in my dreams."
"Shi Xiang, sit down and eat your meal." Shi Qihuan, seated at the head of the table, frowned and spoke up after hearing this, "Xixi and you are both Zhengnan's sisters, there's no need for comparison."
"Dad..." Shi Xiang tried to retort, but was silenced by a dismissive glance from her mother.
"Eat more, you've just finished your exams, make the most of these two months to eat well." Shi Zhengnan stroked Xixi's head with one hand, while picking up a piece of red-braised pork for her with the other.
But after Xixi took a glance at it, she felt a wave of nausea.
"Um!" Unable to bear it anymore, she covered her mouth and ran towards the bathroom.
The people around the table watched Xixi's retreating figure in confusion, glancing at each other, puzzled.
"Hey, brother, you didn't make Sister Xixi pregnant, did you?" Shi Xiang glanced at Shi Zhengnan with wide eyes, setting her chopsticks down and sneaking him a thumbs up. She was heading towards becoming an aunt at a junior high school age?!
Shi Zhengnan was helpless, looking at the horrified eyes of his parents, he stood up quickly and explained, "Dad, I like Xixi, but..."
Unexpectedly, Shi Qihuan, always kind-hearted, didn't wait for him to finish speaking. He took a large step forward, and gave him a hard slap, "You scoundrel! She is your sister! How could you..."
