He Cizhou placed the dessert on the coffee table and looked at Ye Qingran lazily. âThat was not gentle and considerate at all.â
Ye Qingran said, âYou canât blame Brother for that. That Long fella owed me. Besides, Brother was teaching me how to return the favor.â
He Cizhou: â...â
Sigh, yet another silly child who was deceived by Chu Yanâs appearance.
Ye Qingran was really hungry. She did not even want to go to the kitchen to change the plates. She opened the dessert and started eating with a fork.
He Cizhou: â...â
Looking at how he was wolfing down the food, this child was probably famished. He had just suffered such a great grievance, so he must be feeling terrible at this moment.
He originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget about it.
After some time, this child would naturally realise that one would have to see past appearances to see the true nature of things.
Chu Yan, he was a wolf in sheepâs clothing!
Ye Qingran raised her eyes and looked at him, revealing her big white teeth. âBrother He, can I ask you for a favor?â
He Cizhou smiled and said, âGo ahead.â
The child was very polite, but he just had bad taste.
When he looked at Chu Yan, his face was filled with joy, as if he was blind.
It could only be said that he was too young and too innocent, completely deceived by Chu Yan.
One day, he would know that compared to Chu Yan, that big brother with a stomach full of evil...
He was the big brother who was innocent and harmless instead.
Ye Qingran said, âWell, if you have nothing else to do, can you go to the kitchen and cook?â
She actually did not want a man to stand by her side and stare at her while she ate.
He Cizhouâs floating feeling of anticipation crashed straight to the ground.
Did he look like the kind of man who knew how to cook, or even needed to cook? It was absolutely impossible for him to cook himself.
Ye Qingran blinked and tilted her head. âDonât tell me you donât even know how to cook?â
He Cizhou felt a deep contempt and disdain.
Sometimes, one really need to protect oneâs reputation. He rolled up his sleeves and said graciously, âHow is that possible? Itâs just cooking. Wait here, Iâll go to the kitchen to take a look.â
He Cizhou came to the kitchen and stood beside Chu Yan.
He clicked his tongue and laughed evilly at him. âAmazing. In the living room just now, that little kid actually said that youâre very gentle and considerate. How did you do it? Not only do easily capture the heart of a beautiful woman, but now you wonât even let a beautiful young man off the hook. I really want to learn from you.â
Chu Yan ignored him. He turned on the gas and began to boil the eggs.
He Cizhou rubbed his chin and scrutinized Chu Yan from head to toe. âIâm so jealous. Iâm not that much worse than you, so why am I not as charming as you?â
Chu Yan shot him a glance. âNo matter what you want to say, stop it.â
He Cizhou shut his mouth for a moment. Yet, he could not help but speak again. âI have to say it. Of course, Iâm not spouting nonsense, but I feel that thereâs something wrong with that kid in the living room. He seems to really be infatuated with you. Is it because youâre too charming that you turned him gay? Or is he gay in the first place? Did he have so many girlfriends just to hide his sexuality? Could it be that he really likes men? Of course, itâs also possible that heâs bisexual.â
Chu Yan: â...â
He Cizhou: âDo you have feelings for him as well?â
Chu Yan immediately denied it. âNo.â
He Cizhou did not believe it.
He always felt that Chu Yan was too nice to Ye Qingran. He was clearly his sisterâs boyfriend and he clearly disliked him, yet he suddenly treated him like a younger brother.
Perhaps he felt that the since other party was younger, he was like a younger brother.
However, Chu Yan seemed to treat his sister somewhat differently from Ye Qingran.
He let out a long âohâ and asked doubtfully, âIf youâre really not that interested, why did you arrange for him to stay at your house?â
Chu Yan said plainly, âYou just said it yourself. Heâs just a child, an underage child. Itâs very dangerous for him to live alone outside. Since Iâve promised him, I canât just randomly find a place for him. I must ensure his safety.â
He Cizhou: â...â
Was that so?
Could it be that he was overthinking things?
Chu Yan warned. âDonât talk nonsense in the future. Heâs a student now, and heâs in the third year of high school. Studying is very important in the third year of high school. Your nonsense will affect his college entrance exam.â
He Cizhou nodded. âAlright, I wonât say anything in front of him. But... do you really not like him?â
Chu Yan asked back, âYouâve known me for so many years, wouldnât you know whether or not Iâm gay?â
He Cizhou smiled. âI know that youâre not gay, but maybe you just like him, regardless of gender.â
Chu Yanâs voice was a little cold. âHeâs not my type.â
Perhaps he was really overthinking things. He Cizhou smiled and immediately asked, âThen whatâs your type? Loli, big sister, or elegant?â
Chu Yan said with disdain, âYou have too many questions today.â
He Cizhou looked hurt. âIâm concerned about you and that little friend in the living room. I feel that heâs already deeply infatuated with you, but that child seems to be only seventeen years old. Oh my god, heâs seventeen years old and underage. If thatâs true, then youâre too much of a beast.â
Chu Yan replied, âIf you continue to spout nonsense, youâll have to bear the consequences.â
He Cizhou pretended to be pitiful and said, âAll you know to do is to threaten me. Dealing with a violent person like you, a cultured person like me will really be at a disadvantage.â
âIs that so? Then from now on, all your documents can be read by a cultured person like you alone. A violent person like me is only suitable to use my hands, not my brain.â
Chu Yanâs voice was neither fast nor slow. It was as calm as the wind.
However, it made He Cizhouâs expression change.
He quickly interrupted and laughed. âWhat cultured person or violent person? There is no such thing. We are good brothers. We share happiness and adversity together. As long as you need it, I will definitely do my best. Iâll take two ribs...no, double, four ribs to the knife for you.â
After the eggs were cooked, Chu Yan took them out and placed them in a bowl. âThereâs no need for you to stab yourself with a knife. Just cook.â
He Cizhou was a little desperate.
Cook?
How so? He had never learned this skill before.
He said, âYou might as well insert two knives into me instead.â
Chu Yan ignored him and carried the eggs out, leaving He Cizhou alone in the kitchen.
In the living room.
Ye Qingran had already washed her face.
The redness and swelling on her fair little face was a little eye-catching, as if blood could drip out. However, under the light, it was tender and alluring, and there was a layer of demonic beauty to it.
Chu Yan looked at Ye Qingran and shifted his gaze away.
He placed the boiled egg in front of Ye Qingran and said, âRub it yourself.â
He turned around to leave, but was stopped by Ye Qingran. âBrother, wait, I have something to tell you.â
Chu Yan turned around to look at her.
Ye Qingranâs gaze shifted and she smiled. She said slowly, âBrother, I know that you treat me very well. Even if I did something wrong, you wouldnât blame me, right?â
Chu Yan:â...â
No one knew what this child was planning.
