Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 203

Chapter 203: He Doesn’t Look Like A Shy Person
Listening to Chi Xinru’s question, Chi Xiyou frowned slightly and replied, “It’s very complicated. You won’t understand.”

Chi Xinru scratched her head in confusion and said, “You are sad if you are sad. Why is it so complicated?”

Chi Xiyou knew that his younger sister was not smart, so he shook his head and said, “Even if I explain it to you, you won’t understand.”

Chi Xinru felt that her elder brother was looking down on her. She snorted and said, “How can I understand if you don’t tell me? Come on, just tell me. Maybe I can help you solve your problem.”

Chi Xiyou looked at Chi Xinru’s confident expression with doubt but still nodded and asked, “Do you understand how it feels when a pig steals the cabbage you carefully guard for years?”

“Huh? Did a pig steal your Chinese cabbage? Why didn’t I find the missing Chinese cabbage when I went to harvest them just now?” Chi Xinru asked in confusion.

Listening to her series of questions, Chi Xiyou looked at his younger sister expressionlessly and said, “Did you see it? I said you wouldn’t understand. I’m going to help Father clean our house.”

After saying that, Chi Xiyou ignored Chi Xinru and went out to help his father move the mud, trees, and stones from their destroyed house. They need to rebuild their home as soon as possible, and he can also use this work to distract himself so that he doesn’t have to see Xuan Ruiquan chasing after Duan Yixin.

It’s really uncomfortable to see a man flirting with his younger sister!

Chi Xinru watched her elder brother pass by them, glaring at Xuan Ruiquan and giving Duan Yixin a sad look.

She scratched her head and murmured in confusion, “Elder Brother said that, like me, he only regards Xin Xin as his younger sister. But why does he seem to hate General Xuan because of Xin Xin? Is he jealous because Xin Xin cares more about General Xuan than him?”

For once, Chi Xinru really guessed it right. Unfortunately, she rejected the idea and shook her head, “This is wrong. How could an elder brother be jealous of another man who is getting close to his younger sister?”

Chi Xinru thought for a few seconds, shrugged, and said, “Elder Brother must be unhappy about Xin Xin borrowing clothes for General Xuan and General Lan. He is really too stingy.”

After coming to the conclusion, Chi Xinru ignored her elder brother’s strange behavior and continued to prepare lunch. At the same time, after Duan Yixin gave him Chi Xiyou’s clean clothes, Xuan Ruiquan went to take a shower and change clothes.

After he came back, Duan Yixin said, “General Xuan, give me your clothes. I will wash them for you.”

Seeing that the wooden bucket in her hand was full of dirty clothes, he took it from her and said, “I will help you wash them.”

Duan Yixin did not refuse and said with a smile, “All right.”

The two of them then walked to a nearby well to wash clothes, but they didn’t know that Lan Zhuoyu was watching them walk away with interest in his eyes. Seeing that the two of them had gone far away, Lan Zhuoyu walked into the second wooden building and saw that Chi Xinru was the only one there.

He put his dirty clothes into a bamboo basket in the corner of the room and walked to Chi Xinru. After some observation, Lan Zhuoyu found that Chi Xinru was the simplest and most straightforward person in the Chi family. If he wants to get information about Duan Yixin, it’s best to start with her.

Sitting opposite Chi Xinru with a small stove between them, Lan Zhuoyu smiled and asked, “Miss Chi, do you need help?”

Chi Xinru raised her eyes from the porridge pot, looked at Lan Zhuoyu, shook her head, and said, “No need. It is almost done.”

Lan Zhuoyu saw her concentrating on stirring the porridge and said, “I’m sorry to bother you and your family, and thank you for taking care of me and Brother Ruiquan. If Miss Chi needs my help with anything, just tell me, and I will help you.”

Chi Xinru shook her head again and said, “It is fine. Since Xin Xin said that you and General Xuan are her friend’s supervisors, then you are our guests. A host should treat guests to meals and prepare accommodation. General Lan need not to feel bad about this.”

After hearing what she said, Lan Zhuoyu realized that it was more difficult to talk to a straightforward person like Chi Xinru than to talk to an experienced person like Madam Chi. He guessed that even if he gave her an obvious hint, Chi Xinru might not be able to understand what he meant.

Lan Zhuoyu thought for a few seconds and decided to follow Chi Xinru’s straightforwardness. He smiled and said, “Miss Chi, can I ask you a few questions?”

Chi Xinru nodded, “General Lan, just ask whatever you want.”

Looking at her casual expression, Lan Zhuoyu said, “I saw that Miss Duan and Miss Chi’s family are very close. Are you and Miss Duan maternal cousins?”

Chi Xinru shook her head and said, “We are not related by blood, but we do have a relationship that is closer than blood relatives.”

Hearing this, Lan Zhuoyu became curious and asked, “Miss Chi, can you tell me the story between your family and Miss Duan?”

When he asked this question, Chi Xinru finally looked at him and asked, “General Lan, why do you ask so many questions about Xin Xin?”

Lan Zhuoyu smiled and said, “Isn’t my friend interested in Miss Duan? I just help him learn more about the young lady he likes because he is too shy to ask by himself.”

Hearing his answer, Chi Xinru thought of Xuan Ruiquan and thought, ‘He doesn’t look like a shy person to me. The way he always follows Xin Xin and his enthusiastic attitude toward her even makes me think that General Xuan has a very thick skin.’
