488 My Brother had Not Replied

In the morning, the three of them headed to the hotel’s coffeehouse and had their breakfast together.

Bai Xi Xi looked at the choices of food on the buffet table and was at a loss for which food she should try. She thought that every one of them looked delicious. She wanted to try those dishes she never tried before, but was scared that they would not suit her taste.

Growing up, Bai Xi Xi was always taught that she should not be wasting food. After pondering about it for a while, she then decided to follow her sister’s recommendations.

Zhang Li Xue watched as Bai Xi Xi tried the pastry she recommended and saw the little girl’s eyes light up. “How is it? Do you like it?”

Bai Xi Xi nodded. “Un. The pastry you gave me is delicious.” Her movement halted when she saw her sister approaching closer with a napkin in her hand.

“There’s some cream on your lips.”

Bai Xi Xi smiled until her eyes turned crescent.

Meanwhile, Bai Qi was watching the girls’ interaction silently from the side. The two of them really looked like a pair of close sisters.

Bai Qi heaved a sigh, thinking that he would once again be ignored by his wife. Just then, a hand rested on his thigh. He turned around and saw his wife, was smiling at him. Her hand continued to stay there while she eat her breakfast.

.....

Just like that, Bai Qi was in a better mood. He reached for her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

Zhang Li Xue put down the glass in her hand before she looked up again. She took out her phone and tapped her fingers on the screen.

“What’s wrong?” Bai Qi asked when he noticed the look on his wife’s face.

“I just remembered that I haven’t texted my brother yet. If he’s in this city, maybe we can meet later.”

Bai Qi took a sip from his coffee as he waited for his wife to send his text. “Then, where are we going today?”

“Let’s go and walk around the city. There are a lot of interesting places we can visit.”

“Then, when should we go to visit your friend’s exhibition?”

“Let’s go to the exhibition center in the evening,” Zhang Li Xue suggested. “Then, we can kidnap her and have dinner together.” The smile on her face widened as she thought about her plan to surprise her friend.

Bai Xi Xi was listening to her brother and sister’s conversation. She looked up and asked, “We’re going to your friend’s exhibition?”

“Un.” Zhang Li Xue nodded. “Xi Xi, you’ve met Sister Su Jin before. Later, we will go to her exhibition. I’m sure that you haven’t seen her paintings before, right?”

Before this, Bai Xi Xi had heard that Fang Su Jin was good at drawing. However, Bai Xi Xi had never seen her paintings before. Heading that they would be visiting the exhibition center to look at some paintings made her feel excited.

After having breakfast, the three of them headed out together to play around in the city.

The guide, Leo An, acted as the driver and bring them to visit some interesting places. He was a local and knew a lot of interesting stories about every place they visited. Moreover, with his presence, it was easier for both Zhang Li Xue and Bai Qi to haggle and get the best price.

As they were visiting an old historical building, Zhang Li Xue took out her phone again and realized that her brother had not replied to her message. Zhang Li Xue could not help but feel that this situation was a bit strange. She texted him a couple of hours ago and Zhang Yi Hai had not seen her message yet.

Noticing the look on his wife’s face, Bai Qi leaned over and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

Zhang Li Xue shook her head. “No. It’s just that, my brother had not replied to my message.”

Bai Qi frowned, finding that it was a little strange as well. “Maybe he’s in a meeting and did not have the time to look at your message yet.”

Zhang Lu Xue thought that Bai Qi’s explanation made sense and stopped worrying about it. She then decided to ask her mother if her brother had not replied to her by the end of the day.

As she put down her phone, Bai Xi Xi ran over to her side and pointed at some interesting building across the street. Thinking that it was almost time for lunch, Zhang Li Xue turned to Leo An and asked him to bring them to a good place for lunch.

...

Meanwhile, Zhang Yi Hai had a reason why he had not replied to his sister.

That morning, he woke up early and took Fang Su Jin to a scenic spot around a lake. The place was a little farther than the city and the connection was not that good.

The couple spent a long time playing around the place. Then, Fang Su Jin had an inspiration and decided to sketch a few drawings for her future reference. Meanwhile, Zhang Yi Hai was enjoying himself, watching his girlfriend sketch.

By the time her sketches were done, it was already in the afternoon. The two decided to leave the place and headed to a restaurant to eat.

When they finally left the area, their phone started to buzz with incoming messages.

Zhang Yi Hai lowered his gaze as he saw his sister’s message. He thought that his sister was asking about his whereabouts because she wanted him to drop by Fang Su Jin’s exhibition to show his support. He then recalled that he had not sent a picture of his visit to Fang Su Jin’s exhibition yet.

After pondering about it for a while, Zhang Yi Hai sent a text to his sister that he was busy with a few meetings and that he would be visiting Fang Su Jin’s exhibition later.

When he put down his phone, Zhang Yi Hai noticed that his girlfriend was on the phone with Teacher Jiang.

He waited for her call to end and spoke, “What’s wrong?”

Fang Su Jin flashed a smile. “Teacher Jiang wanted me to go to the exhibition center before closing. He said that someone is interested in discussing a future collaboration.”

Zhang Yi Hai nodded. He was proud to hear that someone was interested in his girlfriend’s paintings. “Then, let’s head over to the exhibition center after lunch.”
