Chapter 984 - Tsundere Brother (1)

“What the heck?! Don’t teach Yiling these things!”

“Mind your language in front of Yiling!”

“I… I was just shocked by your words! Why are you… Why are you teaching Yiling to hit me?”

“Well, why are you acting like a tsundere[1]?” Jian Yiheng asked with a serious expression on his face. “If you want to go and see her, then go and see her. Why are you using Yiling as an excuse?”

Upon hearing this, an aggrieved expression appeared on Jian Yichen’s face as he said: “But I don’t want her to overthink… After all, she suffered so much in the past few days. Therefore, I should at least go and visit her to comfort her. However, I don’t want her to think too much about my actions. Brother, you haven’t dated before so you wouldn’t know what I mean. If you’re not interested in a girl, you shouldn’t give her false hope. You need to make sure that she completely gives up on you.”

“You’re speaking as though you’ve been in a relationship before,” Jian Yiheng replied. He was not afraid of embarrassing Jian Yichen.

“Well… Am I not dating Yu Xi?”

“Ah-choo!”

Yu Xi was walking over to Zhai Yunsheng’s door when he heard this conversation.

“Hey! We were only pretending to be a couple! Are you trying to ruin my chance at finding a girlfriend or something?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Wait a minute, I only just mentioned your name. Why are you here already?” Jian Yichen said with a weak conscience.

“Jian Yichen! You deserve a beating! Don’t think that I won’t beat you up just because you’re good-looking!”

“So what? My brother is here! Do you dare to beat me up?” Jian Yichen said as he ducked behind his brother. He acted high and mighty.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yiheng stepped to the side and brought Jian Yiling beside him. “Ignore them. Violence is not suited for you to see.”

“Hey, I’m your brother!”

Jian Yichen reached out and attempted to call for Jian Yiheng. However, Jian Yiheng completely ignored him. He only cared about his sister who could feed him good food.

Although Yu Xi’s physical strength wasn’t great, Jian Yichen was weaker comparatively.

In fact, Jian Yichen hadn’t really won against anyone before in a fight.

As his shield had disappeared, Jian Yichen immediately surrendered: “Yu Xi, let’s just have a good talk.”

“Well, call me Brother[2] Yu Xi.”

“Excuse me? You already got your revenge for the frog incident… Why are you…”

“Well, that doesn’t matter,” Yu Xi said with a smirk on his face. “I just want you to call me Brother Yu Xi.”

“Get lost!”

After yelling at Yu Xi, Jian Yichen dashed into Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling’s apartment to seek Jian Yiling’s protection.

“Yiling! Protect me!”

After Jian Yichen hid behind Jian Yiling, he became high and mighty again.

“Jian Yichen, do you have any respect for yourself?” Zhai Yunsheng asked Jian Yichen. Zhai Yunsheng was currently lounging on the sofa.

“What do you mean? This is my sister! I know you’re jealous! You don’t have a young sister in the Zhai family!” Jian Yichen said proudly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xi walked over to Jian Yichen and patted him on the shoulder: “Friend, your sister is Master Sheng’s fiancee. In the future, she will have children with him. Guess who will be jealous then?”

Immediately, Jian Yichen’s face sank: “Yu Xi! Can’t you say something else! Ahhh, I’m so angry!!!”
