When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Chapter 1106: Chapter 1106: Friends

In a tastefully decorated villa, An Ge sat in a wheelchair, holding a phone in her hand. Hearing noise behind her, she turned to look at the person coming in through the door: "Brother Siyan, there was a call for you earlier, I answered it."

Xi Siyan, holding a towel, walked over while drying his hair.

Following him was another guy: "Si Yan, have you grown taller again? Why do I feel like my clothes are short on you?"

Xi Siyan ignored him, walked over to An Ge, picked up the phone, glanced at the text and call record on it, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"I’m sorry, Brother Siyan, it was just ringing constantly, I..."

Before An Ge could finish, Xi Siyan rubbed her hair and, with an exceptionally rare gentle smile, said: "It’s okay."

An Rui sat down on the bed behind him, legs spread wide, just about to say something when a gracefully dressed woman came in with a plate of fruit. Seeing An Rui, she gave him a scolding look: "Look at you, sitting without any manners."

"I..."

After speaking, the woman looked at Xi Siyan, and this time she smiled: "Si Yan, have some fruit first, and then have dinner later. I’ve asked the kitchen to make some dishes you like. You’ve gotten thinner, you must eat more."

Xi Siyan’s face softened unusually: "Thank you, Aunt."

"No need for thanks, it’s how it should be. You’re in high school now, with so much coursework, yet you still help Xiao Ge with her lessons. We should be thanking you. I’ve already had your clothes washed; An Rui can be so careless, spilling drinks and all."

Xi Siyan smiled and didn’t say a word. Mrs. An gave a couple more instructions before closing the door and leaving.

An Rui, arms around his head, looked cocky: "Can I be blamed? It was a critical moment in pushing the crystal!"

An Ge watched her brother’s explosive demeanor, smiling: "Yes, yes, nothing is more important than gaming to brother."

"Xiao Ge understands me."

While the siblings chatted, Xi Siyan didn’t join in. His fingers moved across the phone, sending Zhou Chengchen a message: [What’s up?]

"By the way, Si Yan, you mentioned you moved out? Where did you move to?"

After replying to the message, Xi Siyan put his phone back in his pocket, returning to his usual indifferent demeanor: "Near the school."

"Did the Li Family kick you out?"

Xi Siyan didn’t respond, but they’d been friends for years. An Rui was one of the few who knew much about Xi Siyan’s family situation, and seeing his expression, he understood clearly.

An Rui cursed angrily: "Damn it."

Xi Siyan instead laughed, reaching out to pat An Rui’s shoulder: "Aunt just told me you’re planning to get into competitive gaming? Going pro full-time?"

An Rui’s playful smile gradually faded, and he nodded: "You know it. I don’t like studying, and my grades are just mediocre, unlike you, being so brilliant. But I love gaming. I don’t think it’s neglecting proper pursuits. I aim to win the championship."

Xi Siyan’s eyes twinkled with a smile: "I’ll support you."

An Ge also spoke up: "Brother, I’ll support you too."

An Rui grinned again: "Of course, my brother and sister would support me!"

Xi Siyan had dinner at the An Family’s house. As night fell, Mrs. An insisted on having a driver take him home, arguing that it was inconvenient to catch a cab here and, being late, even though he’s a boy, it wasn’t safe.
