Chapter 625 Sisterhood
Jia gasped and turned her head in shock. Lihua was already awake and adjusting her position on the bed.She pursed her lips. “I was wondering why sis didn’t come to meet us yet. So this was the real reason…You thought I won’t need you anymore?”
Jia glared at Mingshen and shot him an accusing glance.
”What? I did nothing,” Mingshen shrugged. “Oh. Seems like she heard our whispering. “I must say a mother’s senses become quite strong after giving birth? Oh, that’s a new area to explore. Little chilly, why don’t you become my research subject?”
Lihua threw a pillow at him. “Shut up! Mingshen, leave us alone. Sis and I have something important to talk about.”
”Nope.”
”…”
”If my Spicy is here, then I won’t leave,” he sneered, “You two don’t mind me and keep talking. How about I look after Weiyun? How heartless. He is sleeping alone in the crib, and nobody is looking at him.”
Jia fumed. “It’s not like that! Of course, I was going to hold him after Limei. Don’t spout nonsense!”
Lihua sighed. “Let him say whatever he wants. For now,” she narrowed her eyes, “How about we talk a little bit, sis?”
Jia didn’t know why but a gulp passed down her throat. She promptly sat beside Lihua holding onto Limei in case she needed her niece’s help.
Lihua said, “Sis, something like this was bothering you and you didn’t even tell me? Have we become so distant now?”
Jia hesitated. “It’s nothing like that. I just-“
”You just what sis?” Lihua bit her lip, “How can you think that I won’t need you anymore? Even if I am married to Wei or even if my real family is back, does it mean that you are not my sister anymore? I see. So you don’t treat me as your sister…”
Jia panicked. “Of course not!”
Lihua trembled. “Is it because you cannot accept that we are not blood related? So, we are not sisters because our parents are not the same.”
Jia furiously shook her head. “You are wrong, Lihua! H-How can I think that? You are always my sister. I never cared about blood.”
”Then why did you feel awkward or out of place? We are still sisters! We will always be sisters! You are an important part of my life, sis,” her eyes ached, “How can you feel awkward? I feel hurt…”
”Lihua…” Jia’s body language expressed how anxious and strained she felt.
Mingshen, who was poking Weiyun’s cheek in the crib, raised his brow. This was his first time seeing Jia’s panicking side. His daze didn’t last for longer when Qingqing scratched him with his paw.
Don’t wake him up! She hissed.
Mingshen glared at her.
Hey! Don’t scratch me you traitor!
Lightning seemed to crackle between Mingshen and Qinging.
Jia quickly said, “I am sorry Lihua! I really didn’t mean to hurt you!” Tears formed in her eyes, “It just…felt lonely seeing everybody surround you like that. I felt happy and sad, both at the same time. Happy because there are so many people who love you now. Sad because you grew up so quickly,” she chuckled as she wiped her eyelashes, “I wanted to keep you by my side for a little more and take care of you. Even though you are a mother now, I still see you as my cute baby Lihua who always followed me around, giggling and laughing.”
”Sis…” Lihua’s voice choked in her throat. “But I am still your baby Lihua! I still need you to take care of me. I am only twenty-three. I have hardly grown up!” She harrumphed.
Mingshen sneered from his side. “No matter how many years pass by, you will never grow up considering your intelligence. I won’t let you hog my Spicy for your entire life!”
”…”
Jia gritted her teeth. “Shut your mouth, Mingshen or I will shut it off myself.”
He gleamed. “By kissing me? I would gladly let you do that! Let’s kiss!”
Lihua threw a pillow at his side. “Don’t speak nonsense, Mingshen! As if I will ever let you have my sister!”
He easily dodged the vicious pillow attack and smirked. “That’s not for you to decide, little chilly~ Spicy and my fate is already written in stone. We are made for each other. I have even touched her heart. What more proof do you want?”
Just then, the door opened and Wei stepped in. He saw the tear in Lihua’s eyes, and the temperature instantly dropped.
”Who made my Lihua cry?” He questioned in a dangerous voice.
He eyed Mingshen and spewed icy winds at his side.
Mingshen said, “You bastard, how dare you accuse me!? I did nothing! It’s my Spicy who made her emotional!”
Wei’s brows crinkled and he glanced at Jia.
She coughed. “It’s nothing.”
”Then why is she crying?” He warned. “I won’t let anybody hurt her even if she is her sister.”
”…”
Mingshen’s gaze darkened. “You fucker don’t get to threaten my Spicy, or you will join the research subjects here!”
Lihua quickly intervened. “No, no! Sis didn’t make me cry! We were just reminiscing our childhood days, so I got a little emotional hehe~”
”Lihua…”
She shook her head. “If we are sisters, then we stop that conversation there. No buts.”
Wei frowned and didn’t understand the conversation. He went to her side and wiped her eyes. “Don’t cry anymore. I don’t like it when you cry.”
”Oof. Wei, you are too adorable,” Lihua grinned.
”It’s because you are adorable.”
”…”
”Wei, can you not take a compliment without involving me in it?”
He pursed his lips. “Whatever I am today, it’s only because of you. All compliments should go to my wife.”
Jia choked and looked at him, stunned.
Is he seriously the same man who shot a bullet in my chest? The Mafia King can be this mushy?
Mingshen eagerly said, “Spicy, do you want me to be this mushy with you too? I will compliment as much as you want.”
”No, thanks. I don’t want to die by your hands or your words that make my skin crawl.”
