Xue Rui pushed Lin Ruoxi's hand down, his expression serious. "You put so much work into this gift; you can't just give it away so easily. She hasn't even called you 'sister' and she expects a present? Life isn't that easy."
He knew Lin Ruoxi wanted to thank Xue Yao for the clothes, and that this was also her way of breaking the ice with his family.
But with the way Xue Yao was giving Lin Ruoxi the cold shoulder, he couldn't stand for it, even if Lin Ruoxi could. He wouldn't let the gift be handed over unless Xue Yao changed her attitude.
Xue Yao stared at Lin Ruoxi in disbelief. 'How can this girl be so completely obedient?'
She listened to Xue Rui too, but that was only because he'd use all sorts of threats, not to mention the lingering psychological trauma from past beatings…
'But why is Lin Ruoxi so afraid of Xue Rui?'
'My brother has two girlfriends,' she thought, her mind immediately jumping to Gu Muxue.
