Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

The dinner table was unusually quiet, with only the occasional clinking of bowls and chopsticks.

No one spoke up; everyone at the table except Qin Yebai ate in silence, and a subtle tension hung in the air.

Cheng Xihe observed everyone discreetly.

"Ahem!"

Seeing that the atmosphere wasn't good, Qin Jian glanced at Zhang Zhiyue.

Zhang Zhiyue put down her chopsticks, raised her eyes, and gestured with her chin towards Qin Ruosu.

Qin Ruosu understood, looked at Cheng Xihe with a smile, and said gently, "Xihe, you just came back from Z City, right?"

You grew up by the sea, so you must really love seafood.

King crabs aren't commonly seen. Here, try some and see if it's good.

As she spoke, she turned her head and smiled at the maid standing to the side, who was waiting for her, and said, "Go and peel the crab legs for Xihe."

The maid stepped forward and replied, "Yes."

"etc."

Cheng Xihe stopped her, his voice calm: "I don't need it, don't come any closer."

"Snapped!"

Qin Jian slammed his chopsticks heavily on the table: "Cheng Xihe, Su Su is so good to you, yet you keep making excuses."

For some reason, Qin Jian couldn't help but lose his temper whenever he saw Cheng Xihe.

"Go to the hospital if you're sick."

Cheng Xihe spoke calmly, and amidst Qin Jian's shocked gaze, said, "I'm allergic to seafood, you had no idea."

She had no idea what was going on, yet she asked someone to pretend to be nice to her.

Does he even deserve to be fierce?

Even if...

"It's so noisy, are we going to eat or not?"

A child's voice came over, interrupting Qin Jian's words.

Qin Yebai seemed to have finished the game.

He tossed the tablet aside, and the maid quickly caught it.

Looking up, I saw a ten-year-old child with a fierce expression.

He glanced around the table, then looked up and yelled at the maid, "Don't you know I like crabs? Peel them for me now!"

"Yes, young master."

Turning his gaze away, Qin Yebai glanced across the street and only saw Qin Ruosu: "Hey, where's Qin Shengxia? Why isn't she here?"

"Ye Bai, speak properly." Qin Ruosu's expression was about to crumble.

This younger brother has been arrogant and domineering since he was a child, and he ignores everyone.

Qin Yebai retorted without hesitation, "What business is it of yours? This whole house belongs to me. If you keep making noise, I'll kick you out!"

Qin Ruosu's expression twisted slightly.

At home, Qin Jian and Zhang Zhiyue treated her very well.

But no matter how good it is, it's useless.

When it was Qin Yebai's turn, he had to step aside.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiyue quickly said, "Ye Bai, stop fooling around, your second sister is back."

She steered the conversation toward Cheng Xihe.

She smiled and diverted Qin Yebai's anger.

Qin Yebai turned his head, his gaze falling on Cheng Xihe, his eyes filled with undisguised provocation.

He spread his hands, leaned back, and said in a sharp tone, "Hey, I don't need any second sister."

Hey newbie, bring over your shrimp and peel a few for me!

Where did Qin Shengxia go? She used to peel the meat and feed it to me.

Qin Jian frowned, but tacitly approved of this behavior.

Zhang Zhiyue said in a pretentious manner, "Ye Bai, you have servants, let them peel it for you."

"There are servants both on and under the table, what's the difference? Grandpa and Grandpa Ma have said I'm the boss in this family!"

Qin Yebai showed no restraint whatsoever.

"Ye Bai, have the maid peel them for you, and the older sisters want some too..."

Qin Ruosu was just about to smooth things over and ease the tension when Qin Yebai interrupted her.

Qin Yebai slammed his hand on the table like a little tyrant, raising his voice: "Hey, you, did you hear me? Peel shrimp for me!"

Cheng Xihe seemed not to hear.

She picked up a shrimp and put it in Qin Shengxia's bowl, saying coldly, "Eat it, I'll get you more if you need more."

She completely ignored Qin Yebai and continued eating by herself.

Seeing that Qin Yebai was about to get angry again, Qin Jian couldn't help but speak up: "Xihe, Yebai is also your younger brother, peel shrimp..."

"Come here."

Cheng Xihe raised her eyes, her expression indifferent, and she had already formed an opinion of Qin Jian in her mind.

I thought Qin Jian was so capable, but he turns out to be an incompetent father at home who can't control anyone.

Qin Yebai had always gotten whatever he wanted since he was a child, and had never been ignored like this before.

The little kid felt he was losing face, so he grabbed his chopsticks and tapped them on the rim of the bowl, making a jarring sound.

"what!"

Qin Shengxia was startled by the sound.

In the past, the appearance of this sound meant that Qin Yebai would beat him up.

"Don't hit my sister!" Qin Shengxia quickly rushed over and hugged Cheng Xihe, protecting her.

Cheng Xihe calmly said, "Don't get excited, just sit down and eat."

Discovering that Qin Shengxia liked to eat shrimp, Cheng Xihe picked up a few more and put them on the plate next to her.

She looked up at the maid who dared not move and said, "Peel it for her."

"Yes."

"No, that's what I like to eat! You're not allowed to eat it!" Qin Yebai glared angrily at Cheng Xihe.

Cheng Xihe calmly said, "If you're not going to eat, then get out."

Her cold gaze was like an icy blade, startling Qin Yebai.

"You, you..."

Qin Yebai was suddenly a little scared, but he still stubbornly said, "Give me a chicken leg!"

This request is not excessive.

But Cheng Xihe still refused: "Get it yourself."

"Xihe, it's just a chicken leg."

Qin Jian couldn't help but speak up.

All he wants to do right now is eat!

Seeing that Qin Shengxia was not eating properly, Cheng Xihe patted her on the back.

She picked up a plump chicken leg and, under Qin Yebai's gaze, placed it in his bowl.

Seeing that Cheng Xihe had given in, Qin Yebai seemed to have won a battle. He swayed slightly, picked up a chicken leg, and took a bite.

"puff!"

Just as Cheng Xihe was about to continue eating, a piece of chicken flew over and landed in her bowl.

The chicken was covered in rice grains and traces of chewing.

Qin Yebai wore a wicked smile: "This stuff is awful. Consider it a favor, you can eat it!"

"Ye Bai! Stop fooling around!" Qin Jian saw Cheng Xihe's face getting colder and colder, and a bad premonition suddenly welled up in his heart.

Seeing this, Qin Ruosu's eyes darted around: "Ye Bai, how could you do this? Xi He is also your sister."

Zhang Zhiyue did not stop her, but instead spoke lightly:

"Oh dear, Xihe, don't mind him. Ye Bai is still just a child, he's just being mischievous..."

Before she could finish speaking, Cheng Xihe had already moved.

There was no warning, no premonition.

Cheng Xihe suddenly pushed the stool away and stood up, his movements so fast that the wind seemed to explode.

In a situation where everyone was caught off guard.

Cheng Xi grabbed Qin Yebai by the collar and forcefully pulled him off the chair.

Qin Yebai is only in the third grade and is only 1.4 meters tall.

Like a little chick.

"Hey, what are you doing! How dare you bully me!" Qin Yebai screamed and struggled.

Cheng Xihe smiled and said, "I've given you three chances."

"Xihe!"

Just as Qin Jian was about to speak, he saw Cheng Xihe throw Qin Yebai to the ground without hesitation and slap him on the buttocks.

"Snapped!"

"what!"

Qin Yebai's wails filled the entire villa.

Cheng Xihe didn't stop; his hands, like iron palms, relentlessly pounded on Qin Yebai's buttocks...
