Xena was stunned when she saw the guest’s face. She did her best to hide her emotions.
“Why are you back?” she exclaimed in her mind. “Didn’t you say you’d never see me again? Why are you here?
Ryan was equally surprised, standing up abruptly. They hadn’t seen each other since their parting five years ago.
He was transfixed. The person before him was his sister, Janie

Everyone stood up. Jackson proudly introduced, “This is my most cherished sister, Janie”
Janie gave a faint smile. “Hello, everyone.
Molly couldn’t help but exclaim. “You’re so beautiful!“
Janie smiled back warmly. Thank you. You’re lovely too.”
Molly’s smile grew wider. Who wouldn’t be honored by such a compliment from a great beauty?
She introduced herself. Tm Molly”
Emily greeted with a smile, “Miss Janie, welcome to our program.”
Janie responded politely with a smile.
Jason enthusiastically extended his hand. “Miss Janie, hello, I’m Jason.”
Janie nodded in response, “Hello.”
Jason withdrew his hand, a hint of embarrassment on his face.
With evident interest, David took the initiative to greet her, “Miss Janie, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Feel free to look for me if you need anything
The crowd was surprised–David rarely showed such initiative. But looking at Janie, they seemed to understand. She was such a beauty.
“Nice to meet you,” Janie responded.
[Wow! The most cherished sister!]
[The interaction between cute girls is always so appealing.]
[You can’t be so arrogant even if you’re pretty! Didn’t you see that Jason wanted to shake your hand?]
[Didn’t Janie od politely in return? Some people just don’t like physical contact. I don’t think she’s arrogant.]
[David must have fallen in love with Janie at first sight! I agree to this marriage!]

Chapter 11
Xena tried to pull out a smile. “Hello, Miss Janie”
Janie hadn’t spoken yet. Ryan glanced at Jackson and asked. “Is she your sister?”
How could that be possible? Despite some disagreements between us, Janie is still my sister: Ryan thought.
Since Jackson’s rise to fame, some thought him superior to Ryan. They were on a variety show together, and the contrast was
clear.
“Of course,” said Jackson, unsmiling.
Ryan pressed on. “Then why do you have different last names?
Jackson looked displeased. What makes this bastard Janie’s brother? She should be my own sister, he thought.
n grunted, “What’s it to you what sumame we choose?”

Ryan fel frustrated and fell silent.
Janie gave them an indifferent look, her expression unchanged,
Xena hastily explained, “Sorry, Miss Janie, my brother meant
Jackson rolled his eyes.
Janie seemed puzzled. “I didn’t say he was being malicious.”
no
harm.”
Jackson couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re quite good at attracting hatred for your brother.”
Xena’s face stiffened.
Molly sensed that Xena was not as innocent as she appeared and kept her distance..
Ryan frowned and said, “Jackson, my sister is simple–minded, she doesn’t think that much.”
Jackson’s expression was blank. “As long as you’re happy.”
Ryan felt a heaviness in his chest. ‘Why did Jackson seem so different when Janie was around? he thought.
[Wow, the vibe is not right. I’m feeling excited.]
[I really think that Xena is not as innocent as she seems.]
[Janie is so cute! I want to be her first fan. I’ll be a long–term fan.]
[Jackson has become lively.]
“Janie, come and sit,” Jackson said.
Janie nodded and sat next to Jackson. The others also took their seats.
Mr. Walker’s voice rang out, “Thank you all for coming. You can get to know each other, and then we’ll assign the missions.”
Xena quickly asked Ryan, “What kind of missions?”
Ryan replied, “Such as cooking, washing dishes, chopping firewood, and so on.”
Emily said apologetically. I’m not very good at those, I couldn’t help before.”

Because of this, the program staff prepared yesterday’s meal.
Xena also looked ashamed. “I don’t know how to do these either, what should I do?”
Ryan frowned, understanding that Xena had been spoiled since childhood. He doesn’t know these either
