âBrother, are you okay...â Pei Nanxu stood beside him, looking helpless and worried.
Ever since they were children, Big Brother had been the most distant, aloof, and cold out of the three of them. He had been indifferent about love and relationships, as though he was a perfect God without any flaws. He didnât seem to possess the emotions that humans felt either...
Until Lin Yanâs appearance...
Even though no one understood why Lin Yan was so important to their Big Brother, this was more than they could have imagined.
There seemed to be nothing or no one who could escape the control of his Big Brother.
This was the first time he had cherished and treasured a person so carefully. He had tried so hard to suppress his impulses...
Meanwhile, inside the car...
Lin Yan furrowed her eyebrows and unconsciously shot a glance behind her. She thought that she had heard the sound of a familiar alarm.
For no reason, she didnât feel at ease anymore.
Her thoughts floated back to that night, when Pei Yucheng had stood downstairs...
Pei Yutang, who hadnât realized that Lin Yan was in a daze, rambled on swiftly. âDaddy! Youâre incredible! How could you beat WW? Daddy, please take me in as your apprentice. I want you to be my coach!â
Lin Yan rolled her eyes at him and brushed him off, as she wasnât in the mood to talk. âI donât want to.â
Pei Yutang looked aggrieved. âWhy?â
Lin Yan replied, âI donât accept anyone at random.â
The people she had coached had all raced at the first level of the international competition.
Pei Yutang retorted in a huff, âHow can I be the same? I am your brother-in-law after all! Canât you make an exception for me?â
Lin Yan was speechless...
It was incredible, but she actually couldnât object...
She was his daddy and sister-in-law already. If he were to become her apprentice, how bizarre and complex would their relationship become?
Lin Yan replied without much thought, âI think that it would be better if I remained your daddy. If I were to become your coach, it would be a demotion!â
Pei Yutang fell silent and mulled over her words, which seemed to make no sense. âNo, it wouldnât! Isnât there a saying about this? If you are someoneâs teacher for a day, you are their father forever! You will always be my daddy! This will never change!â
Lin Yan was left speechless when she heard Pei Yutang.
Pei Yutangâs mind raced when Lin Yan didnât reply. âIf you donât want me to be your apprentice, itâs fine! Anyway, you are my daddy, so you are supposed to teach me! Who cares about being an apprentice? You can have countless apprentices, but you will only have one son!â
Lin Yan was speechless...
Thatâs enough...
Donât you realize that you have two older brothers?
How could someone else be your daddy?
âDaddy, why do you seem so distracted? What is on your mind?â Pei Yutang finally realized that Lin Yan wasnât her usual self.
Lin Yan propped her hand to support her forehead and glanced at the mansion, which seemed to be fading into the darkness through the side mirror. âIâm thinking of your brother...â
âAhem... Cough...â Pei Yutang choked and spluttered. âBig Sister-In-Law! Can you give me a heads-up if you want to say mushy stuff next time? I will choke to death if you do it so abruptly!â
âHow has your brotherâs condition been recently? Has he recovered?â asked Lin Yan.
Pei Yutang quipped, âHow could he have recovered? His condition has been like a roller-coaster ride...â
