272: Pretentious Shisui 

Pretentious Shisui 

...2

Since Xiang Yi had received the recognition and praises from an official heavyweight culinary magazine, the Shisui Sisters had nothing to say even though they wanted to insult Xiang Yi further. Instead, they even got ridiculed.

Some of them were stomping their feet furiously, but some came to a sudden realization. 

'Ah...there are so many people who are praising Xiang Yi.' 

'Come to think of it, it seems... it seems that this woman is probably...quite brilliant.'

Many of Xiang Yi's haters formed a new impression of her and had turned into her fans instead. After looking through the fan page that was full of fans shipping Xiang Yi and Shi Sui, they hopped onto the bandwagon too. 

In France. 

"Great! Viscount Albert has agreed to let us use his castle for the shoot!" the creative director exclaimed excitedly while holding his head with both hands. 

Shi Sui said with a faint smile, "It's been hard on everyone. Well done, guys."

Xiang Yi said in a gentle tone, "We'll count on you guys for tomorrow's shoot." 

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now!" 

The creative director left, as happy as a lark. 

Shi Sui's phone vibrated non-stop. He took it out, only to see that it was a call from a number that he didn't recognize. With a slight frown on his face, he swiped his finger across the screen to decline the call. 

'Seems like my number got leaked.' 

Feeling rather helpless, he had no choice but to turn off his phone for the time being. 

Back in China. 

"All is Well Year Round" used more than ten different phone numbers to call and text Shi Sui countless times, but he didn't reply to a single one of them.

'Why!!!'

'Why is he not replying me?' 

'I adore him so much, and I spent a large sum of money for the sake of getting his phone number!'

Her eyes were full of maniacal obsession. At this moment, she borrowed her maid's cellphone and tried to call Shi Sui again... 

However, all she heard was a sweet but robotic voice. 

"Hello, the user you have called has switched off his mobile..."

'What? How can he switch off his cellphone!?!' 

"All is Well Year Round" scratched her hair in frustration and roared in agony. 

...

On the following day. 

There had been heavy showers in the city lately, but the weather was fair today, which was rather rare. 

The old but lofty and luxurious castle was located halfway up the mountain. Rays of extravagant and opulent glass mosaic windows and sculptures. 

Shi Sui got out of the car and pulled the door open for Xiang Yi as a gentlemanly gesture. 

He was chatting with Xiang Yi softly, but he was suddenly interrupted. 

"Hey, Shi Sui, stay away from my sister!" 

Xiang Yi looked up in surprise, only to make eye contact with Xiang Qi who was standing near him. "Brother!" 

Xiang Qi was dressed so fashionably that he'd put a supermodel to shame. 

He strode toward Xiang Yi and pulled her behind him. Staring at Shi Sui warily with his guard up, he barked, "You're not allowed to speak to my sister!"

Shi Sui blinked and looked at Xiang Yi whose gaze was innocent and pitiful. He looked down, but he seemed to be talking to Xiang Qi. "Okay, I got it." 

He was a handsome, tall, and mature man. When he pulled the "puppy eyes" trick, it would work countless times better than when pretty boys did. 

Who would be able to stand that!?! 

Xiang Yi had indeed wavered. "Brother, be more polite to Shi Sui..." 

Before Xiang Qi could answer, Shi Sui smiled faintly and somewhat bitterly. "It's okay, I've already gotten used to it." 

Xiang Qi was speechless. 

'What on earth is happening? Didn't this person use to be very arrogant!?' 

"He's not a good man!" Xiang Qi was extremely agitated. "Have you forgotten how he used to gang up with Xiang Chen against us!?" 

Xiang Yi asked in confusion, "Oh, did he?" 

Xiang Qi suddenly realized that the both of them would occasionally bully Xiang Li, sometimes himself and Xiang Qi, and most of the time, they would bully their Uncle Xiang Feng... 

However, he had never bullied Xiang Yi before. 

Shi Sui suddenly tugged Xiang Yi's sleeve aggrievedly, which seemed somewhat pretentious and unlike his usual self. 

He complained softly, "Xiang Yi, he badmouthed me..." 

Xiang Qi was flabbergasted! 

'Damn it, why are you so two-faced?!' 

...

Xiang Chen: I'm nice only to my little sister Xiang Yi.

Shi Sui: I'm acting like this, only in front of Xiang Yi.
