Chapter 2225 Brother Who Protects His Sister
Hearing her crying voice a little hoarse, Li Jinnian, with a flattened mouth, got up, poured a glass of warm water in silence, whispered to Xia Jinyuan, “The weather is dry; let her drink a glass of water. first.”
Drink a glass of water first, then only cry again; this was Li Jinnian’s thought.
Xia Jinyuan nodded slightly, took the glass he handed over, lowered his head to Ye Jian’s ear, and said softly, “Little Fox, come, drink some water first; your voice is already hoarse.”
Seeing his one arm around Ye Jian’s shoulder and the other holding the water, Li Jinnian’s eyes became a little dark.
His cold gaze glanced over the man holding his younger sister, and Li Jinnian’s tight mouth became a little tighter. In the future, if he dared to bully his younger sister, he would teach him a serious lesson.
Plus, they weren’t even married yet, and he was already hugging and kissing her. He had to remind his sister appropriately next time. Don’t let Xia Jinyuan take advantage of her.
Li Jinnian, who had not yet received Ye Jian’s personal recognition, now considered himself a “brother.”
Xia Jinyuan, who was lowering his head to persuade Ye Jian to drink some water, suddenly felt a blade-sharp gaze at himself. When he looked up, he saw Li Jinnian sitting on the side of the hospital bed and staring at him for a moment. His gaze was a little bad, and he was glaring at his arms around Little Fox from time to time as if his eyes were sharp enough to cut off his hands.
If Little Fox becomes Sir Fu’s granddaughter, then… then does that mean Devil King Li is Little Fox’s brother?
Doesn’t that mean that I’m Devil King Li’s brother-in-law?
Xia Jinyuan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Devil King Li’s eyes were so unkind now, with an expression saying “he kidnapped his sister.” Once Ye Jian called him “brother,” Xia Jinyuan’s life would be a bit unpleasant.
That really did not seem so good. Li Jinnian was already dissatisfied with Xia Jinyuan cuddling Ye Jian, but he didn’t immediately say it. He knew that he was not qualified and had no position to disagree yet.
It was also evident from Ye Jian’s expression that she trusted Xia Jinyuan very much, and she could tell Xia Jinyuan everything in her heart. Therefore, his status as a brother was temporarily unrecognized in Ye Jian’s heart and was far worse than Xia Jinyuan.
Li Jinnian knew this, so he looked away after only one glance.
Fortunately, Ye Jian did not cry anymore. After crying for almost ten minutes, she vented all the negative emotions in her heart. The crying gradually subsided. Upon hearing Xia Jinyuan persuading her to drink a glass of water, she breathed in steadily to calm her fluctuating mood. Then, she waited until her breathing was much smoother before raising her head from his arms.
“I’m sorry, I’ve cried too much.” Ye Jian took the glass, her eyes flushed like a bunny, and she apologized. “I thought of something, and the tears suddenly flowed out, and I couldn’t hold it back. I just felt like crying it all out.”
It was probably the worst cry she had in this life. Even when she was “beaten” by Major Xia and was admitted to the hospital, she never shed a single tear.
Knowing that her biological father didn’t intend to abandon his wife and children, instead, he just didn’t know what was going on, the grievances in her heart suddenly couldn’t be suppressed. So she only felt like crying.
“You never need to apologize in front of me.” Li Jinnian took out a paper towel and handed it to Ye Jian. His usual cold voice was incredibly soft now, as he urged, “Wiping your tears away, your eyes are so swollen.”
Her eyes and nose were red. She really looked like a little white rabbit. Li Jinnian, whose mouth was still pressed tightly, could not help smiling slightly.
