This was not the first time that little fat Xi Muqi was scolded by his sister. He immediately frowned and turned his head, but said nothing.
The atmosphere was at a stalemate when footsteps sounded outside. Everyone looked subconsciously and saw a woman wrapped in white walking over delicately, holding a tray in her hand. It was Xi Wenya's cousin, Xi Wanru.
Tuantuan's eyes lit up instantly: "Cake!"
Even before you get close to the golden and translucent crabapple cake, you can already smell the delicious sweet aroma, especially the outermost yellow-orange meringue, and you can already imagine the crispy texture.
Xi Wanru saw her eyes and smiled slightly, then turned towards Xi Wenya.
"I was looking for my sister when I had something to do, and I happened to meet a servant. She was hesitating outside the door with a pastry, so I helped her bring the pastry over."
When Xi Muqi heard this, his chubby face covered in red rash twisted for a moment, and he spoke angrily.
"If you think my family is in trouble, then get out. If you don't work hard with the money, you should sell these people out!"
Xi Wanru immediately covered her mouth in panic: "Cousin Archie, how can you talk like this and let others listen, and then say that you are domineering and that our family has committed evil stars and yet you still don't admit it."
"Master, what's wrong with me being so domineering? This is my house and I can't be the master anymore?!" Xi Muqi's voice became hoarse with anger.
Tuantuan looked at him baring his teeth and claws, and his crescent-shaped eyebrows immediately wrinkled in disgust. What a stupid fat man!
Xi Muqi had been observing her secretly, and when he saw her expression, he thought she was afraid and immediately became arrogant.
"How ugly you are, you should be afraid. If you are afraid, then leave quickly!"
Tuantuan pouted and was about to speak, but Xi Wanru frowned.
"Why is Archie talking to guests like this? My sister is still here. She will definitely be sad and disappointed when she hears this."
Xi Wenya: "..."
In the past, I only thought that Xi Wanru really cared about her younger brother's upbringing, so she always mentioned it, but now it sounds like it's all just gossiping and sowing discord!
Xi Muqi subconsciously looked at his sister, and Xi Wenya frowned.
There was a feeling of frustration in his heart, and it was like this again, my sister always turned towards this outsider!
He was furious in his heart, and was about to speak, but he saw Tuantuan approaching him without knowing it, with big dark eyes that looked like stars.
"What are you doing!" He was startled, then he clenched his fist and shook it.
"How about it? If you're afraid, then..."
"It's you who's afraid!"
Xi Muqi was stunned for a moment, and then he exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I am the future head of the family. I am afraid of nothing in this family!"
Seeing his reaction, Xi Wenya still didn't understand anything. She sighed softly and reached out to hug her silly brother.
"Yes, Archie shouldn't be afraid in the first place."
Xi Muqi was stunned. If he had said that in the past, his sister would have just scolded her harshly. If she didn't listen, she would have told her parents that they were being beaten by mixed doubles. What happened today?
Just as she was thinking about this, she heard Xi Wenya look at Xi Wanru displeased: "Wanru, Archi is the future head of the family after all. How he behaves is our family's business, so you don't have to rush to teach him."
Xi Wanru was surprised. In the past, when she would just say something casually, her stupid sister would immediately teach her stupid brother a lesson. What happened now? Is it because there are guests today?
But with these two poorly dressed little kids, there seems to be no need for superficiality, right?
Thinking of this, she smiled quietly and put the pastries on the table.
Tuantuan immediately came over with the little puppy in his arms. Each of them looked at the cakes eagerly, but they behaved and did not move. They just waited obediently to eat.
Xi Wenya couldn't help but smile, asked the maid to fetch water, wiped Tuantuan's hands, and then pushed the cake in front of her.
"Try it. This is my mother's favorite food. The pastry chef also hired someone specially to bring it."
Tuantuan immediately smiled and rolled her eyes: "Thank you, beautiful sister!"
Xi Wanru immediately came over: "Little girl, you look so smart, why don't you thank me? I brought the cakes for you."
Tuantuan glanced at her and ignored her, but solemnly took a bite of the pastry, and then showed a satisfied look.
“So, so delicious!”
Xi Wanru was ignored, her face darkened, and she turned around to look at Xi Wenya helplessly...
