The famous celebrity Jue was coming in two days, and it had Su Yan cooped up in his work studio the whole day . He was working hard to ensure that everything was perfect .
Xuxu helped him to check the tiny details and accessories on the costumes .
The sky turned dark . She sat across Su Yan with a cup of water . She asked, "Tonight, I'm bringing Su Yue out for dinner . Do you want to join us?"
Su Yan raised his head and grinned . "Since you have invited me so sincerely, I shall humble myself and join you . "
His pair of deep eyes looked like crescents when he smiled . He gave off a warm and alluring charm .

Xuxu frowned and worry filled her eyes .
Su Yan saw she was staring at him in a daze, and so he stroked his face . He joked, "Have you finally realized that I'm more handsome than my third brother?"
"As if!" Xuxu rolled her eyes and sighed . "Can you please make more effort to show concern for Yueyue? You should bring her out on the weekends . Stop focusing on yourself . "
They were siblings yet they were so different . The brother was cheerful and warm, but the sister was pessimistic and moody .
She couldn't understand why their mother sent Su Yue to the orphanage . It's not as if she couldn't afford to bring her up .
Poor Yueyue .

"Did you think I didn't try?" Su Yan wiped the grin off his face . He then took a sip from his cup .
Xuxu cast him a puzzled look . "Why?"
Did he have any hidden troubles?
"Ha!" Su Yan grimly laughed . "I bet you assumed that she treats everyone else just like how she treats you . "
Xuxu remained silent as she frowned . He continued, "When she is with me, she doesn't speak . I've tried asking her to travel with me, but she would always decline to say that she needed to study . "
He placed his cup down, pulled a chair and settled down . "If she will stay with me, I would find us a place right away . "
It shocked Xuxu to hear that Su Yue didn't even want to talk to Su Yan . She couldn't seem to recall them having much interaction . To be frank, there was only once or twice when she caught them having a conversation .
Every day, Su Yue would go back to her room straight after school . It was only when Xuxu was at home that Su Yue would go seek her help with school work .
Xuxu couldn't suppress another sigh . "So, we need to care more about her . "
It made her worry over the child even more .
"So, I need to trouble you in the future to accompany her . She has never been close to anyone, and she was aloof and distant even towards…"
Su Yan didn't continue and only pressed his lips .
Xuxu could hazard a guess which person he was referring to .
She was sent to the orphanage when she was young . No matter how dire her circumstances were, Su Yue's mother should never have done that . And furthermore, she had the ability to raise them . Unless she had rejected First Uncle's support and money all these years, only then would she believe that she had sent Su Yue to the orphanage .
Perhaps she was biased towards mistresses and third parties .
But without question, she hates men who look for mistresses even more .
Xuxu stopped her train of thoughts and replied, "You've finally addressed me as your sister-in-law . "
Su Yan pouted . "It's a pity we met too late but it can't be helped . I wanted to address you differently, but my dear brother was unwilling . "
"Stop your nonsense . " Xuxu glanced at the time . "We need to fetch Yueyue now . "
