Love So Sweet

397 Protect Her Well

Zhang Yi Hai lowered his gaze to look at his phone. His finger tapped at the screen for a few seconds. Then, he put it back on the table. As if he was thinking of something, Zhang Yi Hai picked up his phone before putting it down again.

At the side, Zhang Li Xue was observing her brother’s strange actions. It was rare for her to see her brother this restless. Zhang Li Xue knew that her brother had something on his mind.

Fortunately for him, everyone’s attention was on Bai Xi Xi and no one seemed to notice what Zhang Yi Hai was doing. The atmosphere in the house was different with a little girl like Xi Xi around.

After watching him for a while, Zhang Li Xue wheeled her wheelchair to the dining table and reached Zhang Yi Hai’s side.

It seemed that Zhang Yi Hai was too busy looking at his phone that he did not realize that his sister was beside him.

“Li Xue, have you had your breakfast?” Zhang Yu Han asked when he saw that his daughter had returned.

“Daddy, I already ate with Bai Qi earlier.”

Zhang Yi Hai jumped upon hearing the voice that suddenly appeared behind him. He turned around to see that his sister was right behind him.

Fortunately, he did not have any food in his mouth. Otherwise, he might spit out everything due to shock.

.....

“Sister.” Zhang Yi Hai swallowed. “What are you doing, sneaking around?” He held his phone tightly, hoping that his sister would not notice the name on his phone.

“When did I sneak around? You are the one who was preoccupied with your phone and did not notice my presence.”

Zhang Yi Hai lowered his gaze to hide his guilty conscience. However, a few seconds later, he looked up again, pretending that there was nothing wrong.

“My friend was informing me about some assignments,” Zhang Yi Hai said.

His words caught the attention of the others.

His grandfather, Zhang Xi turned to him and spoke, “Yi Hai, when are you returning to Capital City?”

“Probably tomorrow evening.”

Zhang Li Xue looked at her brother in shock. “So fast?”

“Mmm... I still have some assignments and exams after this.”

Zhang Li Xue thought that her brother was going to stay for a while longer. However, it seemed that he has been staying in Y City for too long.

Initially, he came back because of her accident. Then, he stayed around upon hearing that she was going to get a marriage certificate with Bai Qi.

Zhang Yi Hai has been leaving his campus for a while. He needed to get back and continue his study.

Seeing that his sister was no longer suspicious, Zhang Yi Hai finally heaved a breath of relief.

He actually did not mind letting his sister know that he was in the middle of pursuing Fang Su Jin. However, Zhang Yi Hai had the feeling that Fang Su Jin was not going to like it if he talked to his sister.

Fang Su Jin was a shy person. If his sister knew about this, Fang Su Jin would definitely be embarrassed.

At this time, Fang Su Jin hasn’t given him her answer. Of course, he has to protect her well. Before Fang Su Jin agreed to his pursuit, he won’t say a word about it to anyone.

Zhang Yi Hai finished his breakfast and planned to head over to his room again. However, his sister stopped him before he could leave.

“Yi Hai, come with me for a while.”

His heart skipped a beat. Zhang Yi Hai wondered if his sister saw his phone screen earlier and wanted to inquire about it.

He watched as his sister turned around and followed her to the garden.

“Sister, do you have something you want to tell me?”

“I just wanted to sit down and chat with you for a while.” Zhang Li Xue raised a brow. “What is it? Are you not willing?”

Zhang Yi Hai coughed. “I did not mean that.”

“Come on.” Zhang Li Xue patted the garden chair next to her. “Sit down. It has been a while since we have talked.”

He pulled a chair and sat down beside his sister. When he turned again, Zhang Yi Hai saw that his sister was staring at him.

“Yi Hai, are you alright?” Zhang Li Xue asked. “I noticed that you have been staring into space recently. Something bothering you?”

A faint smile curled on his lips. “I was only thinking about my classes and assignment.”

Zhang Li Xue narrowed her eyes. “And here I thought that you were worrying about your girlfriend.”

“I don’t have a girlfriend yet.”

“Really? I’m sure that there are a lot of pretty ladies in your class.”

“I’m not interested in them.” Zhang Yi Hai smiled as a face came to his mind. However, he quickly hid his expression from his sister. “I’m going to graduate soon. At this time, I wanted to focus on my study first.” Zhang Yi Hai laughed when he saw his sister sighing. “Sister, you don’t have to worry about me.”

“How can I not worry about you? Yi Hai, Mommy and Daddy already said it since we were younger. We have to look after each other.”

Zhang Yi Hai saw the concerned look on his sister’s face. His heart was filled with warmth. “Sister, it seemed that after getting a marriage certificate, you have now turned gentler.”

“What do you mean?” Zhang Li Xue shot a warning look at her brother. “I’m always a gentle person.”

Zhang Yi Hai laughed.

The two siblings spend some time teasing each other for a while.

After chatting with his sister about some silly things, Zhang Yi Hai finally returned to his room.

He looked at his luggage at the side and thought about Fang Su Jin again.

Tomorrow, he was going to return to Capital City.

Zhang Yi Hai wanted to see Fang Su Jin again before he went back. However, he still remembered that he had promised to give Fang Su Jin some time to think about them. Before she give him her answer, he did not want to disturb her.

In the end, he decided to send a text to Fang Su Jin and reminded her of their promise.

Zhang Yi Hai looked at the calendar. He hoped that time would pass quickly and the one-month period would come sooner.
