Meng Xia managed to maintain her last bit of clarity and insisted that Charlie should have her back before 10 PM.

“Sorry, there’s a curfew at my house, and the Song family has always been strict with their children,” Meng Xia said apologetically from inside the car. “Besides, we’ve spent the whole day out today. We still have time tomorrow. How about we make plans then?”

She thought she had put on a cute smile, but in Charlie’s eyes, it was still nauseating. He gently pinched her cheek, then said tenderly, “Alright, let me take you back for now.”

Until they reached the gate of the Song family villa, Meng Xia spent a long time talking to Charlie at the entrance, and she genuinely didn’t want to leave. Especially when she saw Song Fan riding a motorcycle back, she took the opportunity to loop her arm around Charlie’s and coquettishly said, “What time will you come to pick me up tomorrow? I haven’t had enough fun today!”

Her voice was sweet, and her gaze kept glancing in Song Fan’s direction, though Song Fan didn’t spare her a glance.

However, Charlie keenly noticed Song Fan and calmly withdrew his hand from Meng Xia’s, smiling gently as he said, “Miss Song, you’re out so late too? You seem tired. How about we plan to go out together tomorrow? Do you have time?”

“No time,” Song Fan replied indifferently, not willing to waste any time with him. She had more important things to investigate.

“Quite rude, it’s evident she’s truly from the countryside.” Meng Xia pouted, feeling triumphant inside. She hoped Song Fan and Charlie would never have any interactions. She then turned to Charlie and sweetly said, “I should go back now. Don’t forget to pick me up tomorrow, okay? Promise.”

Charlie shook his head helplessly, reluctantly made a pinky promise with her, and quickly got into the car. Meng Xia didn’t sense anything wrong and proudly had the servants bring everything back to the villa.

“Little sister, I’ve prepared a midnight snack for you. Aren’t you eating?” Song Kai held a bowl of seafood porridge, but Song Fan didn’t even acknowledge him. She just waved her hand and went back to her room.

Song Kai couldn’t understand what was wrong with her. Song Chuan rarely had the time to come back, and yet Song Fan didn’t seem to notice him. He shouted,

“Little sister, did you see me? Hey!”

However, Song Fan didn’t turn her head. She closed the door directly.

Song Chuan, annoyed, took the bowl of porridge from Song Kai’s hand, drank it all in one go, and then said fiercely, “If she doesn’t greet her brother, she don’t get to eat the supper!”

“Don’t you need to control your weight? You’re resuming training in a couple of days. Don’t you want your eight-pack abs anymore? Aren’t you avoiding carbohydrates?” Song Kai said speechlessly.

Song Chuan touched his now slightly bloated belly, thought about the international competitions in half a year, and pointed to the box on the floor.

“All of those are for my little sister. The jewelry she wore at the last banquet…”

Upon seeing Meng Xia come in, he sneered without continuing his previous words. “Anyway, they’re all for little sister. These necklaces were ordered from abroad. Remember to give them to her. Tomorrow, I have to get up early to go to the training base. Remember to give them to her.”

After speaking, he went to the gym on the first floor without looking back. He needed to burn calories quickly; otherwise, his coach would skin him alive.

Meng Xia rolled her eyes at his departing figure. What kind of jewelry could an athlete afford? He probably bought a bunch of cheap stuff from street vendors.

Meng Yu knew she had returned and quickly went downstairs. Upon seeing the necklace around her neck, Meng Yu swallowed hard. It had been several years since she bought decent jewelry. Previously, when attending banquets, she borrowed accessories from Yu Wan, and not a single one truly belonged to her.

“Xiao Xia, your necklace is so beautiful. Is it a gift from Charlie?” Meng Yu’s eyes brimmed with envy. She felt that such a necklace should belong to her.

Meng Xia, somewhat proudly, touched her neck. “Yes, he insisted I accept it. I couldn’t refuse. All of these are gifts from Charlie. He buys me whatever he likes; I can’t stop him.”

Upon seeing her smug expression, Meng Yu felt uneasy. Meng Xia received so many gifts, wasn’t it because of her help? Yet, Meng Xia was flaunting it.

Song Kai wasn’t particularly fond of Charlie. He warned, “Xiao Xia, offering kindness without reason may hide ulterior motives. Be careful.”

“Fourth Brother, don’t worry, he truly cares for me,” Meng Xia said gently. “Besides, these things aren’t much for the Brown family.. By the way, do you know what kind of jewelry Second Brother gives Sister? Can I have a look?”
