Chapter 350

"Why is it you? How could you come here?"

Shu Hong questioned with a dark face.

"I am your sister, and also Mom's biological daughter, why can't I come? Today is the weekend, I've come to visit Mom," Lin Miao responded with a feigned air.

In her heart, she was annoyed to death by Shu Hong.

Did he not know about the closeness of blood relations? She was his own sister; instead of currying favor with her, he treated her with such a poor attitude. He truly lacked upbringing.

Shu Hong said with a cold face, "You are not welcome today. In the future, call ahead before you come; don't just show up at the door."

With a bang, Shu Hong closed the door directly.

Today was a day for their family to gather together happily, and he did not want anyone to disturb them.

Especially Lin Miao.

No matter how Lin Miao disguised herself, he felt that she harbored evil intentions and was certainly not up to any good.

Lin Miao watched as the door closed right in front of her, and her face turned black instantly.

She had rushed over on the weekend precisely because she wanted a chance to see Shu Xuan and hoped to improve her relationship with her brother; she had even smelled the aroma of food just now.

Her peripheral vision caught a table full of dishes set out, and it seemed there were quite a few things placed in the living room as well.

Looking like this, it was very possible that Shu Xuan had returned.

As a result, she hadn't expected Shu Hong's hostility toward her to be so great.

Damn it!

Shu Hong was just too unlikeable.

At this moment, Jiang Ye, who had walked over upon hearing the noise, asked Shu Hong, "Who was knocking at the door just now?"

She had just gone to change her clothes again.

Xia Xia had bought her two or three outfits, and she liked them all very much.

Shu Hong said, "Someone knocked on the wrong door."

Jiang Ye didn't think much of it, "Look at this outfit, how is it? Your sister's taste is truly excellent; every piece of clothing is very suitable for Mom."

Having not dressed up seriously for many years, Jiang Ye seemed to see her former youthful self through the mirror.

Her heart couldn't help but warm slightly.

"This outfit is also very good," Shu Hong praised.

Shu Xia had finished making two dishes and brought them out from the kitchen.

Seeing Jiang Ye, who was all smiles, she also smiled.

Meanwhile, Shu Xuan and Shu Chen had also arrived downstairs, both carrying things as they climbed the stairs.

The two brothers chatted about their recent situations while climbing the stairs.

In their careers, both brothers had made progress and were earning more than before; they were even discussing buying a house, as this residential complex was a bit old, and climbing the stairs every day—once or twice was fine, but doing it every day, they were afraid Mom's body wouldn't be able to handle it.

The two of them had almost identical thoughts.

"Brother, one day I saw Shu Xia eating with a strange man; could he be her suitor?" Shu Chen suddenly thought of this matter.

Shu Xuan was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to look at the stairs, saying, "Xia Xia has grown up; let her handle her own private affairs. Even if he is a suitor, she will have her own judgment. After all, after the incident with Fu Chenyan, she has already grown."

Shu Chen was still a bit uneasy, "If he is Xia Xia's suitor, I still need to figure out what kind of character this person has. There are few men nowadays who can be trusted; we cannot let Xia Xia get hurt again."

Hearing this, Shu Xuan glanced at Shu Chen.

"Brother, why are you looking at me? Did I say something wrong?" Shu Chen felt a bit bewildered.

Moreover, he felt a bit strange inside, a sense of bewilderment as if Shu Xuan knew something he didn't.

Shu Xuan's tone was indifferent, "It's nothing, keep climbing the stairs."

"I saw Xia Xia's car just now; she should have arrived a long time ago." Shu Chen made up his mind to ask Xia Xia when they were eating.

When they arrived at the door of the house and saw Lin Miao standing in front of it, both of them frowned.

"Why did you come?" Shu Chen asked first, in a bad mood.

Shu Xuan's expression sank.
