From a young age, always standing in a place too high to bear the cold, he was extremely proud and self-centered, believing everyone should owe him and expecting absolute obedience.
His personality was too domineering, but not aggressive. His guard and wariness towards others were always high.
Over time, it became impossible for him to absolutely trust anyone.
This included the woman he liked—Xi Yin.
Qin Youbei couldn't understand his answer. She misunderstood Xi Lixing's commitment, thinking that the reason he and Xi Yin split was because of his hatred for the family.
But it was the loss of Xi Yin that made Xi Lixing start hating the entire Xi Family, leading him to hand the family over to Xi Pinglian.
Qin Youbei asked softly, "Will you ever return to the Xi Family?"
She hoped that Xi Lixing would go back, no matter if he was Gu Xiao's father or not, but he was definitely Xi Pinglian's older brother. If he went back, the Xi Family would probably return to his hands.
