Chapter 51
Jackson stood in the distance, shaking his head and clicking his tongue in amazement. Ryan and Zion weren’t happy, but why was Jackson so cheerful? However, it seemed that Xena didn’t really care about her brothers at all.
Sure enough, his own sister Janie was the best. If it were Janic, she would never side with outsiders and make him uncomfortable. Thinking of this, Jackson couldn’t help but smile. David also enjoyed watching this.
As for Janie, she leaned against the swing, almost falling asleep. She’d even taken a walk in the Space. Janie said languidly, “Isn’t there any other activity? If not, I’m going inside to sleep.” She had never watched variety shows before and wondered whether all the shows were leisure like this.
[Hahaha, is Janie falling asleep? Her face is so cute, oh.], [Going inside to sleep? No, no, no, how about coming over to my place? It’s pretty big.], [Hey, stop dreaming. You’re drooling on me.]
David couldn’t help but glance at Janice’s bright face. David opened his mouth, “There should be some arrangements, but.” He glanced at Xena and the others, twitching his lips, “At least let them finish eating.”
Janie glanced around casually, “Right.” Molly was also sitting next to them. Earlier, when Emily and Jason left her to ask for food, she stood there alone, feeling a bit awkward. Janie called out to her, and she happily came over.
Being with them was joyful. Molly felt invigorated even if nothing was said. Zion was full of resentment and wanted to vent, but he knew that it was still on live and it would definitely ruin Xena’s image.
Zion could only endure it. As a result, he became more and more aggrieved and uncomfortable. He unconsciously looked at Janie’s cheerful face and couldn’t help but wonder whether she would be like Xena in that situation.
Zion shook his head vigorously and shook off the thought. How could Janie compare to Xena? Xena was just too kind. Ryan had joined Zion and sat with him in silence.
Xena kept glancing at Ryan and Zion. She felt uneasy and also lost appetite. Emily and Jason, on the other hand, still enjoyed their meal with peace of mind.
Xena felt a little uncomfortable. She had already figured out why Ryan and Zion were acting like this. But she still couldn’t accept that they embarrassed her in public. She just felt that she was not biologically related to them, and their biological sister was also here, everything then made sense.
Xena couldn’t help but glance at Janie and quickly averted her gaze.
[At least let them finish eating, hahaha. I’m just like David and can’t take my eyes off Janie.], [I can’t believe I feel sorry for Ryan and Zion. Xena really cared about Jason and Emily more than she cared about brothers.]
[Don’t talk nonsense. Xena was just being kind.], [After Ryan and Zion left, Jason and Emily really enjoyed the food more.]
Janie naturally sensed Xena’s gaze as soon as she did it, and Janie frowned slightly. ‘Xena had already lived such a comfortable and happy life. Why was she always dissatisfied and resentful? Many people less fortunate than her had much stronger attitudes.’
Janie didn’t mind that much and didn’t bother to think more, continuing enjoying the swing. At this time, Emily and Jason finally finished the meal that Ryan and Zion had painstakingly prepared. They were very satisfied with the food.
Emily sincerely said, “Xena, thank you for the breakfast, it was truly amazing!” Xena forced a smile, “Never mind.” Jason didn’t hesitate to praise, “It’s impressive that it’s your first time cooking. I truly admire it!”
Xena could only continue to talk with them friendly. Seeing that they finally finished eating, Ryan and Zion returned. Emily and Jason greeted them warmly, giving thanks and compliments.
The table was a mess, as if Emily and Jason hadn’t seen it. Zion frowned and asked, “Are you finished?” Emily and Jason nodded together. Zion impatiently said, “Than wash the dishes.”

Chapter 51
[Haha, I feel I’m liking Zion now. Young master could say whatever he wanted to.]. [I’m getting tired of Jason. Why are they so annoying?], [If you don’t want to watch, just leave. No one’s forcing you to stay here.). [You’re so domineering! Why should I leave? I still want to see Janic, Jackson, and David.]
Emily and Jason were taken aback. They were just freeloading. How could they let guests wash the dishes? Besides, they glanced at the table. There were surprisingly so many dishes to wash! Emily and Jason weren’t very willing to do this.
Emily was about to speak, but Xena had already begun, “Let me do the dishes! Ryan and Zion, you just watch, I’ll do a good job.” Jason immediately disagreed, “How can you wash the dishes alone? Let me join you.”
Emily smiled and said, “That’s really embarrassing, let me wash the dishes!” As a result, the three of them started to compete over washing the dishes. However, no one actually started washing. Janie, Jackson, and David watched them and said nothing.
