Xiao Ya asked curiously, finding it somewhat amusing as she observed the serious expressions on Ye Xiaofei and Xu Hu's faces.
In her subconscious mind, these two were still kids. What kind of important matter could kids have? They were making such a solemn, secretive display of it.
But Xiao Ya hadn't realized that the opportunity to change her life was about to come from what she perceived as the laughable actions of her two younger brothers, in the very next moment.
Ye Xiaofei signaled Xu Hu to lock the door of the hospital room before he let out a sigh of relief, then asked with an odd expression,
"Elder Sister Xiao Ya, do you still remember that red bead I accidentally swallowed at your house that day?"
Xiao Ya was stunned, recalling the incident and suddenly felt her face grow hot with both embarrassment and a sense of guilt. It was her fault. The situation with Xiao Fei had been so dire; it scared her to death.
