At 7:30 in the evening, Shi Ning received a text message from Lin Suno.
[Is the dinner over?]
Shi Ning replied: [No, weâve already eaten, but they are still drinking. It should be over soon.]
Lin Suno: [Okay, Iâll pick you up.]
Shi Ning wanted to reply âokayâ, but seeing her brother at the corner of her eyes sitting next to her, she felt guilty and deleted the word, then change it to:
[No, letâs meet later]
[Why?]
[My brother is hereâ¦]
It took longer for the other side to reply before sending the message.
[Your brother doesnât approve of us?]
Shi Ning: [No, he doesnât know yet.]
Hiding from Shi Chen, she sent another message secretly.
[Also, my brother doesnât seem to want me to be in a relationship.]
Lin Suno who saw the message was lost in his thoughts
Of course, your brother doesnât want you to be in a relationship, how can he be willing to hand over his precious little sister whom he has been protecting for so many years to other men so easily?
[Itâs okay. Iâll face it. Iâll talk to Brother Chen.]
[No you canât!]
Coming right now to talk to her brother, wasnât he looking for a fight?
She couldnât bear to let Suno face these alone.
[My brother has been busy doing experiments and writing papers recently and is not in a good mood meeting with this kind of bottleneck. Letâs find a better time to invite him to dinner and tell him!]
They should be a little more serious about this, as long as her brother feels the importance she attaches to him, and the jealousy in her heart disappears, he would probably be happy for them.
[Okay, Iâll listen to you.]
A few seconds later, he sent another message.
[But I still want to see you tonight]
When Shi Ning saw this message, she couldnât help smiling.
She thought that if he fell in love he would be insipid and independent, but it turned out he was clingy.
[Then wait for me downstairs in the dormitory. Iâll go back to the dormitory with Feifei. See you later.]
âWho are you chatting with that youâre smiling so happily?â Shi Chen asked beside him.
Shi Ning looked away from her phone and said, âMe?â
âYes.â Shi Chen looks at her suspiciously.
âOh, my roommate and I just talked about an interesting thing.â Shi Ning explained.
Shi Chen didnât ask any further questions and continued to chat with several ministers.
Originally, Shi Ning didnât think it would be boring to sit here. Anyway, no matter how much they drink or talk, they should be done at around 8:00, so she just had to sit quietly for half an hour.
But after answering Lin Sunoâs message, as soon as Shi Ning thought that she would be able to meet her boyfriend right away after walking out of there, she felt like going home earlier.
So, when she saw that two girls had left, she pulled Yan Fei: âFeifei, letâs go back to the dormitory too.â
Yan Fei: âIsnât it good to leave early?â
Shi Ning: âItâs okay. I can talk to my brother.â
âAll right then.â
âBrother, can I go back first?â
Shi Chen looked at his phone and said, âSit down for a while, and Iâll take you back.â
Shi Ning: âNo, I can go back with my roommate. You can sit with everyone for a while longer.â
Shi Chen looked at Yan Fei standing next to Shi Ning and nodded: âOkay, you two pay attention to safety on the road.â
âOkay.â
After getting permission, Shi Ning pulled Yan Fei and the two of them walked out of the restaurant.
After leaving the restaurant, Yan Fei joked, âWhy not wait, itâs an honor to be sent home by the president personally. I want that honor.â
Shi Ning told her honestly, âMy boyfriend is waiting for me downstairs in our dormitory.â
Yan Fei clicked her tongue and said teasingly, âI was just wondering why you want to leave early, it turns out that you are in hurry to date! Poor president, I almost laugh when he said you have no intention in dating yet. Ai, your brother didnât know you were in love.â
âDidnât you see his reaction, how can I dare to tell him easily?â
âThatâs true. Your brother is a typical patient with sis-con. If he knows you are now dating someone, he canât accept it for a while. After all, he has raised his sister for so many years and knows how good you are, he wonât just let some cheap boys take you away.â
âBut my point is, your brother hasnât even dated yet, but you already are, and you did it without telling him! Tsk tsk, I can already imagine the president being down after knowing the truth as he turned around hiding the tears that were about to fall, and as the wind blow his back will look so lonely.â
Yan Fei used both expressions and tones, that Shi Ning almost see the picture in her head.
âStop!â
She stopped Yan Fei from stirring up her emotion.
âWell, my brother will certainly accept it. After all, he knows Suno so thereâs nothing to worry about. I just wasnât able to tell him because every time I felt scared, it felt like I was a child facing my parents as if I am confessing I did something bad
Yan Fei: âYouâd better talk to him quickly. Donât be caught on the spot by your brother one day.â
âDonât make it sound like I am cheating! How can I talk to him?â
Shi Ning said and went to hit her.
