Love So Sweet

By the time they arrived at the hotel, Bai Xi Xi was too tired and decided to head into her room to sleep earlier. Anyway, her brother and sister-in-law had promised that they will come out and play by the beach again the next morning.

Bai Qi headed to the bathroom to take a shower. After standing by the griller for a long time, he thought that his body smelled of smoke.

After a while, Bai Qi came out again with the scent of shower gel on his body. He looked around the room and found his wife looking at her phone.

Zhang Li Xue raised her head and met his gaze. Then, she stood up and spoke, “Hubby, do you have medicine for stomach ache?”

Her husband was a doctor and he would often carry a small pouch of medicine whenever they were traveling around. Zhang Li Xue thought that her husband was like a convenient pharmacy.

Hearing her question made him frown. “What’s wrong? Is your stomach hurting?”

Zhang Li Xue chuckled. “It’s not me. It’s Su Jin. She said that she had eaten quite a lot and her stomach was hurting.”

The frown on Bai Qi’s face quickly disappeared. Hearing that it was not his wife who was in pain made him feel more at ease.

.....

“Hold on. I’ll go and find them.” Bai Qi turned around and rummaged through his bag. Then, he returned to Zhang Li Xue’s side with a packet of medicine in his hand.

There was already an instruction written on the package. However, Bai Qi still explained the dosage to his wife.

After listening to her husband, Zhang Li Xue grabbed her coat and waved the small package in her hand. “Wait for me here. I’ll go and send the medicine to Su Jin.”

Initially, Bai Qi wanted to volunteer and send the medicine over. However, the other party was his wife’s friend and it did not seem appropriate for him to go.

“Then, I’ll wait for you. Don’t take too long to chat with Su Jin.”

Zhang Li Xue laughed upon hearing her husband’s words. She leaned over and pecked his cheek. “Hubby, remember to miss me.”

Before Bai Qi could react, his wife had already run to the door and escaped, leaving him standing in the middle of the room with a silly smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue was heading to Fang Su Jin’s room at the end of the corridor. She pressed the doorbell and waited for a while.

The door swung open. However, the person who was standing in front of her was not Fang Su Jin.

Zhang Li Xue stared at the young man in front of her and smiled. “Zhang Yi Hai, what are you doing here?” She took a step back to look at the number on the door. “This... isn’t this Su Jin’s room?”

The young man had a shy look on his face. However, he knew that he could not give his sister a chance to tease him.

“Sister, this is my girlfriend’s room. Why can’t I be here?”

In fact, Zhang Yi Hai was starting to regret that he had opened the door without checking.

Earlier, he had called housekeeping and asked for them to deliver an extra pillow. He had thought that the person who was pressing the doorbell was someone from housekeeping. Therefore, he did not think too much when he volunteered to open the door.

Who would have thought that his sister would appear in front of him?

Zhang Li Xue narrowed her eyes at her brother. Just then, the housekeeping staff walked over and looked at the siblings. Then, the staff looked at Zhang Yi Hai and handed him the extra pillow that he had requested.

Zhang Yi Hai took the pillow from the staff and watched as the person left.

Suddenly, there was a long, awkward silence between the siblings.

He thought that it was normal for him to appear in his girlfriend’s room. However, now that his sister was in front of him, Zhang Yi Hai suddenly did not know how to react.

The mischievous smile on Zhang Li Xue’s face stretched out. “Yi Hai, you’re staying over with Su Jin?”

Zhang Yi Hai coughed. “There’s nothing wrong with me staying over, right?”

Looking at the expression on her brother’s face already gave her the answer to the questions that she wanted to ask.

“But sister, what are you doing here?” Zhang Yi Hai asked. Then, he eyed his sister suspiciously. “It can’t be that you are leaving my brother-in-law’s side to come and chat with your friend, right?”

“You are thinking too much.” Zhang Li Xue rolled her eyes. She took out the packet of medicine in her hand and passed it over to her brother. “Su Jin said she ate a bit too much and now her stomach is uncomfortable. This is the medicine from Bai Qi.”

Zhang Yi Hai looked at the packet of medicine with a frown as he listened to the instruction from his sister.

“Alright. Remember not to sleep too late,” Zhang Li Xue reminded him. “Tomorrow, we still have to wake up early. Huan Huan said she is going to take us around the town.”

After exchanging a few more words, Zhang Li Xue finally left the room to return to her husband’s side.

Zhang Yi Hai watched as his sister returned to her room before he finally closed the door. When he turned around, Zhang Yi Hai saw his girlfriend walking out of the bathroom.

He put the pillow on the bed before walking over to his girlfriend. “Here. Your medicine. Su Jin, are you still feeling uncomfortable?”

Fang Su Jin stared at the packet of medicine and frowned. “Where did you get this?”

“My sister came over to deliver them a while ago,” Zhang Yi Hai said.

Her eyes widened. “Your sister came over?” Fang Su Jin inhaled a deep breath upon seeing the young man nodding.

The two of them were sneaking around. Fang Su Jin thought that she could hide from her friend. Who would have thought that Zhang Li Xue would still know that Zhang Yi Hai was staying over?
