Xia Chu chuckled, "Sijia, are you praising me, or are you praising your elder brother?"
"But no matter who you're praising, I'll take it all the same."
"Rest assured, I know my own limits, and I only do what I can. I won't overexert myself."
She paused for a moment, "What do you want to eat? How about some porridge? Right now someone's probably feeling awful, and porridge is the only thing they can stomach."
Huo Sijia giggled, "I was just thinking why my sister-in-law is being so nice today, not rubbing salt in my wounds. But the heartache, albeit delayed, has arrived."
"There's no need for porridge, I've got a good appetite."
"This isn't something that happened today; it's been a while, and I've already suffered and accepted it."
"Today was just about putting the final full stop, nothing to feel bad about."
"If I were really that fragile, people at the company wouldn't be calling me 'Little Devil' behind my back, now would they?"
