Chapter 167: Mockery
At breakfast, the entire Xia family was already seated in their designated spots.
Only Xia Linsong, Song Qin, and Xia Qing looked exhausted, with no energy to spare.
"Third brother, third sister-in-law, and Xiaoqing, what’s with you guys? Why are you so tired and drained first thing in the morning?" Xia Linjun asked the three with a grin.
As soon as this was mentioned, Xia Linsong turned his gaze to Xia Xi who was eating breakfast.
"Xia Xi, what happened last night? Why was there no response when we knocked on your door?" Xia Linsong questioned with a stern tone.
"Didn’t want to invite bad luck in the middle of the night." Xia Xi replied without raising her head.
"So you deliberately ignored us knocking last night, is that how it was, Xia Xi? Do you realize you made us restless all night?" Xia Qing erupted angrily at Xia Xi.
"If I was foolish enough to respond to you pounding on my door in the middle of the night instead of sleeping, I would have." Xia Xi retorted with a blank expression, looking right at her.
