Love So Sweet

128 Someone Familiar

After coaching Bai Xi Xi for a while, Zhang Li Xue went to the changing room and took a quick shower. Then, the group of three leave the court and headed to the nearest mall where they planned to grab something to eat.

With Bai Xi XI’s chattery voice, Zhang Li Xue was able to stop herself from thinking about that accident in court.

Noticing that the atmosphere between her and Bai Qi was no longer as awkward, Zhang Li Xue finally let out a breath of relief.

Once they arrived at the mall, Zhang Li Xue and Bai Xi Xi were holding hands as they walked around to find a place where they could eat.

His little fairy was talkative and once she met with his sister, the two of them were unable to stop chatting. As the only man, Bai Qi could only follow the girls closely from behind.

However, those who did not know them thought that the group of three looked like a family.

“Xi Xi, what do you want to eat?” Zhang Li Xue asked.

The girl tapped her finger on her chin. “Noodles. Pretty Sister, I want to eat noodles.”

“Do you like noodles?”

.....

Bai Xi Xi’s eyes lit up. “I love noodles the most!”

Zhang Li Xue laughed at her reaction. It was then that she recalled meeting Bai Qi at a noodle restaurant not too long ago. She wondered if he was buying lunch for his little sister.

After looking around, the three of them decided on a restaurant and headed in.

Just as Zhang Li Xue and the Bai siblings entered the restaurant, a young, tall man was seen coming out of a sports equipment shop.

If Zhang Li Xue was a little late, she would definitely run into her brother and panic. Her brother would keep on his guard against Bai Qi and make trouble for her.

Fortunately for her, she was a few seconds quicker. This was how she managed to avoid a certain disaster from happening.

Zhang Yi Hai exited the shop and halted.

His gaze was glued to the restaurant across him.

For some reason, he had a feeling that he had seen someone familiar...

The phone in his pocket buzzed.

Zhang Yi Hai shifted his gaze and saw that it was an incoming call from his friends. After a few seconds of hesitation, Zhang Yi Hai swiped his fingers on the screen and pressed the phone to his ear.

“Hello?” His deep voice reverberated.

“Yi Hai, it’s me. Qian Ji.”

“Uh-huh.”

“You’re still on vacation, right?” Qian Ji asked.

After being friends with Zhang Yi Hai for a few years, Qian Ji already knew that his friend did not like to speak that much.

“The guys decided to get together and play pool,” Qian Ji continued. “Yi Hai, do you want to come along as well?”

Zhang Yi Hai lowered his gaze as he contemplated Qian Ji’s invitation. It seemed that it has been a while since the last time he met his high school classmates.

He was indeed feeling a little bored with his sister not around.

“Alright. Where are you guys meeting up?” Zhang Yi Hai asked. “Just send me the location. I’ll be there soon.”

After exchanging a few words with his friends, Zhang Yi Hai looked at the shopping bags in his hand. Initially, he was planning to buy a few more stuff, but it seemed that he will have to do that next time.

The phone in his hand buzzed. Zhang Yi Hai glanced at the phone and saw that Qian Ji had sent him the location.

Fortunately, the place was not very far from where the shopping mall.

He went to get his car in the parking lot and drive over to the location. As it was the weekend, it took him a while to finally find a parking spot.

Zhang Yi Hai alighted from the vehicle and began to look around the street.

The place where his friends agreed to meet was nearby a university. Because of that, there were a lot of young people walking down the streets.

He walked down the street for a while and finally found the place he was looking for.

However, just as he was about to cross the road, his eyes caught the sight of someone familiar. His eyes narrowed when he realized that the person was no other than his sister’s best friend, Fang Su Jin.

Zhang Yi Hai shifted his gaze away as he did not have any plan to greet her. His steps halted when he saw the two boys who were following the girl.

He watched the situation for a while and saw that Fang Su Jin was uncomfortable with the boys’ approach. It was clear that the boys were harassing her.

The passersby saw this scene but none of them wanted to interfere.

Seeing that one of the boys was grabbing Fang Su Jin’s arms, Zhang Yi Hai turned and rushed over to Fang Su Jin’s side.

“Let me go, you dumbass!” Fang Su Jin tried to retaliate.

However, the boys only laughed happily at her reaction.

“Pretty girl, why don’t you accompany us? We promise that we will make you happy.” One of the boys spoke as he looked at Fang Su Jin with his lecherous eyes. “You won’t regret this.”

Her expression turned uglier as the boy started to grab her arms. Fang Su Jin swung the paper bag in her hand to the boy’s face.

She had been out to shop for some art supplies when the two boys suddenly walked over to her. She had been trying to drive them away for the past few minutes, but it seemed that they were ignoring her words.

Seeing that they were starting to get physical, Fang Su Jin could only retaliate.

The paper bag she was carrying was a little heavy. There was a loud thud as it hit the boy’s face.

The boy touched his painful cheek. Then, he turned and stared at Fang Su Jin unhappily. “Why you little...” He raised his arms and was about to hit the girl.

However, someone else was a little faster.

Before his hand could touch Fang Su Jin’s cheek, someone had grabbed the boy’s wrist and pushed him away. The boy turned to look at the newcomer with a dangerous look on his face. “Who are you? Don’t be a busybody. Go away before we beat you.”

Zhang Yi Hai scanned the boys with his eyes. He put his hand around Fang Su Jin’s shoulder and spoke, “What are you going to do to my girlfriend?”

Fang Su Jin was glad that someone had stepped forward to help her. However, she could not help but found that this person’s voice was a little familiar. She looked up and her eyes widened in surprise.

This... Zhang Li Xue’s little brother?
