Chapter 297: Chapter 279: Wei Family

"Sister Xi, don’t you need to help Auntie?" Although she didn’t see the meat, Luo Qianqian heard the sound of Chang Xi taking the meat, and she took it three times.

"No need," Chang Xi shook her head, "How about I show you some photos?" she said, taking out a thick photo album from underneath the coffee table.

Turning to the first page, there was a picture of a fair and delicate child, but something was off, there was something extra compared to Chang Xi...

"Hey, this is my older brother, he used to look so fair, but now he’s completely unrecognizable, as dark as a piece of coal," Chang Xi said nonchalantly, not minding exposing her own brother’s privacy in front of two strangers: "You see, his hair was this yellowish color when he was young, and now he goes to the barber shop once a week, you wouldn’t believe what he’s up to, he goes there to dye his hair black..."

"This is my younger brother, a bit darker, but much more steady than my older brother, at least he doesn’t go to the barber shop to dye his hair, but he dyes it black too," Chang Xi turned the page, muttering to herself, "Could it be favoring sons over daughters? My photo should be right on top."

She quickly flipped through the next few pages before she found her own photo. A fair and delicate little girl, with big eyes and black newborn hair.

Flipping another page, there was a delicate oval face, big eyes, curved lips, and two sweet dimples.

Luo Qianqian looked at the photos and then at Chang Xi sitting next to her: "Is this really you?"

It wasn’t that she doubted, but could the woman sitting in front of her, burly and artistically dark-skinned, have been so delicate and cute as a child?

Chang Xi’s expression darkened slightly, but she nodded, "Yeah, it’s me."

"Such an unusual difference, you weren’t poisoned out of jealousy, right?" Luo Qianqian curled her lips, even if she wasn’t concerned about her own weight, her mother who cared so much about her physique definitely would be, unless she had some obesity disease.

Chang Xi’s hand trembled, and the next page fell, still showing a cute and delicate appearance.

Wild Wolf noticed Chang Xi’s trembling hand and frowned slightly.

"So be careful yourself, not everyone who is nice to you is a friend," Chang Xi said softly, flipping through the album.

The album continued with that delicate appearance until it stopped at the age of thirteen. The pages following were blank, void of pictures.

Luo Qianqian was stunned, could she have really guessed right?

"I’m sorry..." Luo Qianqian apologized instinctively.

Chang Xi shook her head: "It’s not your fault, it’s my poor judgment, but evildoers will eventually be punished. It’s just that I never decided to lose weight, and that’s why I’ve remained this way."

"It’s not good, not only will others make fun of you, it could also lead to hypertension, diabetes, and other vascular diseases. In old age, you might end up only being able to eat boiled vegetables," Luo Qianqian shook her head repeatedly, she really cared about her physique, even if she didn’t care, she wouldn’t dare maintain such a body shape.

In the kitchen, Madam Wei, hearing her daughter bring out the photo album, stood nervously behind the kitchen door watching the three people, and burst into tears when she heard what Luo Qianqian said. How could she not know these things? But whenever she wanted to speak up, her daughter would argue that if it wasn’t for her traveling the world, or if her father and grandfather weren’t always busy with official business, leaving only her at home, would she play with the child who flattered her? Over time, the topic of losing weight also drifted away from the Wei Family. Not only did she dare not speak up, but her husband and grandfather-in-law didn’t dare either, fearing that Chang Xi would storm out and not return home. Her two brothers were equally silent, always vetting her friends carefully after knowing about their sister’s issues.

Now, Luo Qianqian and Ye Liang’s information lay on the desk of Chang Xi’s younger brother. It was Luo Qianqian, not Ye Meng, and a pair of slender hands was examining their details. After reviewing it all, he sighed softly, dealt with the source of the message, picked up his coat, and planned to go home, it was time to visit his sister.

"Are you done?" Naturally, the three busy men of the house got the news and were waiting outside. Standing there was Chang Xi’s father.

"Yes," Wei Ming nodded.

"Take care of it for her, after all, it’s the Luo Family," Wei Shenmo instructed his son, "Don’t tell Little Xi about this."

Wei Ming nodded, but then asked, "Dad, do you think Luo Qianqian really made that decision for Luo Shufan’s sake?"

"Probably, after all, a child with such good performance..." Wei Shenmo nodded and then clenched his fists, "It’s really unknown who took action, not a single clue, but I hope it really isn’t the Han Family."

"The Luo Family still doesn’t know, we..."

"We don’t know anything; this child is just Ye Meng." Wei Shenmo emphasized, "The sister of the former special forces member Ye Liang."

"What if..."

"Send it to your brother, and send Little Xi there too, it’s time to cut down." Wei Shenmo made the decision and turned to leave.

Wei Ming was stunned for a moment, then gave a wry smile and nodded, murmuring, "Sister, it’s not that I’m not helping you."

"Hello? Wei Guang? I want to tell you something..."

"Xiao Meng, let me show you the clothes I wore when I was little; you can wear them now too." Chang Xi suddenly remembered something, took Luo Qianqian, and ran upstairs.

Wild Wolf looked helpless, girls changing clothes, he couldn’t very well follow them, could he?

Madam Wei watched Wild Wolf sitting alone, no longer watching him, leisurely cutting the meat and placing it in the pre-prepared sauce, marinating the meat.

Wild Wolf had no choice but to play chess by himself. It didn’t feel right to turn on the TV when the host was not around, playing Gomoku alone.

"Wow, so many clothes?" Turning on the room light, Luo Qianqian was stunned, a room full of various clothes, hanging, folded, a whole roomful of girls’ clothes.

"These were made by my grandmother, my grandmother made very beautiful clothes, look, this is the last piece my grandmother made, it was my wedding dress, now I can’t even fit one leg into it." Chang Xi took out a wooden box, opened it to show Luo Qianqian the brilliant red wedding dress inside.

"It’s so beautiful! Your grandmother’s hands were so skilled," Luo Qianqian praised.

The clothes were arranged by age, but there were both male and female ones, ranging from infant to adult sizes.

Seeing Luo Qianqian’s gaze, Chang Xi smiled and said, "My brothers also have them, but they can still fit into them. After promising to take good care of them, grandpa gave them the clothes."

"You’ll get slim." Luo Qianqian looked at the clothes and said earnestly.

"That’s right, after all, I was a great beauty loved by everyone when I was little." Chang Xi also laughed, pulling Luo Qianqian to the teens section, "Some of these I have worn, and some are still brand new; keeping them here is just a waste. Don’t be shy, if you like them, wear them, my grandma will be very happy to see someone likes them." Chang Xi pointed at the clothes in front of her, "Even if I slim down, I can’t wear them anymore, I have grown up, grown taller."

Luo Qianqian nodded happily, "Then I shall gladly accept them, they really are beautiful, thank you Sister Xi."

Hearing that Luo Qianqian was not going to be polite, Chang Xi also smiled brightly, "Come on, try them on, my grandmother’s craftsmanship, you won’t find a second like it in the entire Capital City."

Luo Qianqian nodded, having never seen handmade gowns before, she touched each piece one by one, full of amazement, "Your grandmother was truly an artist."

Chang Xi nodded smilingly, looking at the gown in her hands, and hesitated for a moment, "Do you think... if I got slimmer, would your brother like me?"
