Chapter 333 Feeling ashamed
night.
Xi Yu had just finished showering and was sitting on the bed when she casually opened the notification letter next to her.
This is indeed a legitimate invitation to join the team.
So... Yan San really did come all the way from the capital to deliver this notice!
Just as Xi Yu was struggling with her decision, Xi Hua's voice came from outside the door.
"Baby, are you still awake? Would you like some warm milk?" Xi Hua brought in a glass of milk and placed the warm thermos in Xi Yu's hands.
Xi Yu obediently took a sip, noticing that her mother seemed to want to say something but hesitated to speak.
"Is this an invitation to join the team?" Xi Hua touched the envelope beside him and smiled. "I've heard your grandfather say before that only those with outstanding talent can receive an invitation from the legion. My Xiaoyu is amazing; she has truly inherited her grandfather's skills."
Xi Hua's tone was tinged with relief. She herself was physically weak and unable to inherit her father's mantle, but her child did, and was exceptionally outstanding.
Xi Yu smiled slightly; she knew her mother hadn't come to say these things.
After chatting for most of the day, Xi Hua finally couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyu, did you run into... your father in the capital?"
"No." Xi Yu looked steadily into Xi Hua's eyes, her eyes devoid of any expectation or nervousness, only filled with deep worry.
Xi Hua breathed a sigh of relief, but then she thought that her daughter would join the military after graduation, which would give her even more chances to run into An Changhai. She didn't want her and her daughter to have any further involvement with the An family.
Xi Yu gently covered her hand and said softly, "Don't worry, Mom. The An family won't hurt us anymore. I will protect you, and we have no reason to back down. We weren't the ones who did wrong, were we?"
Xi Hua was momentarily dazed. Looking at her outstanding daughter, she realized that she couldn't let her daughter retreat in frustration.
She nodded shyly: "Mom doesn't think as clearly as you, a child... But Mom is also a little worried, after all, he is your father."
"He's just my biological father, he doesn't deserve the title of father." Xi Yu corrected with a faint smile. If she hadn't taken over this body, she wouldn't have even mentioned a man like An Changhai.
Xi Hua felt a pang of heartache. Other girls had loving fathers who doted on them, but her Xiao Yu only had her useless mother.
"Let's not talk about that, Mom. Are you getting used to life here? Uncle Mu often comes to help out at the shop, so it shouldn't be too busy, right?" Xi Yu asked casually.
Without much thought, Xi Hua replied, "It's great here. It's even more fulfilling than life in City A. We're getting more and more regular customers! We're only able to keep up thanks to Mr. Mu's help. He knows a lot and has taught me a lot."
When she spoke of Mu Junze, she had a gentle smile on her face, but Xi Yu still keenly caught a trace of her inferiority complex.
In front of Mu Junze, Xi Hua still unconsciously felt ashamed of himself.
Xi Yu didn't point it out, but simply chatted with her about trivial matters in the shop.
For Xi Hua's conservative and docile personality, it's better to cultivate feelings slowly and gently. Then it all depends on Mu Junze's abilities.
They chatted until 1 a.m. before Xi Hua realized how much time had passed. She quickly told her daughter to rest and went back to her room to sleep herself.
Xi Yu was in good spirits. After practicing the Thousand Brocade Technique for about an hour, she slowly fell asleep.
Not long after lying down, she suddenly opened her eyes again.
Although the lights were off, she could still clearly see Yan San sitting on the balcony railing, waving at her.
Why is this guy jumping onto her balcony in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?!
