Yu Minglang took a convoluted route, going around in a big circle, leaving Xiao Qian with only one central idea.
âYou donât want me to call you Yu Minglang?â
âUnity is important!â
ââ¦â Shameless!
âHurry up, once weâve sorted out this principle issue, then I can help you.â Yu Minglang eagerly sought benefits for himself.
Previously, the naughty girl had fooled him, shouting âbrotherâ. Yu Minglang thought that was nice, and reflecting on it now, he still felt a tingling sensation.
âAh, changing the name, no problem, listen carefullyââ She cleared her throat, his breath pausing slightly.
âScoundrel!â her voice was crisp and clear.
Yu Minglang felt as if he had been drenched in cold waterâ¦
Whatâs all this about, it doesnât sound as good as calling him Yu Minglang!
âHowâs that for a name?â Xiao Qian seemed quite delighted.
âDo you still want me to do you a favor?â
âYu Dumbass?â
âI should get back to work, probably wonât have time for the next few monthsââ
âBrother Lang?â
âNot united enough.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Qian was fuming now.
âYu Minglang, donât push your luck. If you donât want Brother Lang, then Iâll just call you Uncle! In Korean dramas, thatâs how they address their boyfriends! You can choose whether to help or not, donât threaten me!â
When Xiao Qian got tough, Yu Minglang indeed backed off, his voice noticeably different from just now.
âXiao Mei, donât be like thisââ
âWhat do you care what I call you?!!â Xiao Qian heard that nickname again, which had made her collapse in her past life.
This guy, why is he still doing this! Assigning nicknames randomly!
She thought she hadnât heard this infuriating nickname by now, and could escape the ânightmareâ of her past life.
She never expected she still couldnât escape it!
Xiao Mei, as common as a country girl, thatâs okay, the problem is, isnât this nickname for a flying cockroach?
A cockroach that canât fly is called Xiao Qiang, and a flying one is called Xiao Mei.
Who else could come up with such a strange nickname for their girlfriend, other than this weirdo, Yu Minglang!
âXiao Mei! You are Xiao Mei.â
Yu Minglang is stubborn, a rigid straight man, who is determined to have a unique code for his people.
His code back in the day was one, his brothers have codes, too.
His girlfriend is his person, she must be unique. Others call her Qianâer, Xiao Qian. Yu Minglang does not want to call her like that, he cannot be like others.
âI donât want to be called by such a strange name!â She protested strongly. The dignified female boss is being referred to as a flying cockroach!
âProtest invalid, Xiao Mei, be nice. Once I find something, Iâll contact you.â âHello!â Xiao Qian wanted to protest again, but he had already hung up the phone.
She kicked the table in anger.
Next time she must protest, at least let her have a nice-sounding nickname!
On his way back to the company, Yu Minglang was thinking about Xiao Qian and the beauty mark on her forehead.
So beautiful with a beauty mark, why not call her Xiao Mei?
Time flies, in the blink of an eye, Xiao Qian was about to start school.
All the family affairs had been arranged, her mother was also settled, she was relieved to go to school.
Jia Xiufang originally planned to send her daughter to school, but with an elderly person to take care of at home, and having fallen out with Second Brotherâs family, she could only ask Chen Linâs youngest son Chen Chao to send Xiao Qian.
People outside still didnât know that Chen Lin and Jia Xiufang were getting divorced, and Chen Lin didnât have the guts to tell his family for fear of breaking his elderly motherâs heart. Xiao Qian actually felt fine going alone, but Jia Xiufang was worried.
Although she is a strategic thinker, sheâs still a girl. Even though the school is within the province, a 2-hour drive away, she still worries. Nowadays, there are many child traffickers targeting young girls.
Chen Chao is a man of few words, Xiao Qian once mentioned visiting him but never managed to find the time.
Her cousin had helped her in her previous life, and she had been thinking about returning the favor.
On the train, Chen Chao silently handed Xiao Qian the washed fruits. The two siblings sat facing each other. Xiao Qian knew his temperament, typically a man of actions rather than words. But before the incident of him helping her with money in her past life, she had always felt that this brother was difficult to deal with.
People, when theyâre not in a predicament, they never know who they can rely on.
âBrother Chao, is your company sending people to guard the mines abroad?â Xiao Qian asked.
Chen Chao nodded. He used to play with his cousin when they were children, but as they grew up, the siblings stopped seeing each other that often. However, he still liked this little sister, always remembering her chasing after him to get elm seeds from the tree while she was wearing pigtails.
âWhen are you and that beautiful woman in your office getting engaged?â
Chen Chaoâs face turned red instantly.
âHow did you know about her?â This matter was kept a secret, even his family didnât know.
âI saw you two shopping together last time. Brother Chao, that sister is really nice, she looks great with you, you should snatch her up!â
In her previous life, that woman didnât become her sister-in-law, even though she had a good relationship with her brother, they eventually broke up.
The reason was that they both applied to go abroad to earn more money for the wedding. The place they went to was the coldest place, a mining area with temperatures below forty degrees. Her brother froze his waist and got spondylitis, a very scary disease.
Normally, the disease doesnât flare up, but when it does, the waist hurts so much that it canât be straightened. Thereâs no cure at all, and thereâs a chance he could become paralyzed one day. This incurable disease hung over her brother like a time bomb.
Of course, itâs not that everyone with this condition will become paralyzed, but the chances are high. Some people manage to control it without any issues, but the waist pain is inescapable.
That sister was very affectionate and truly loved her brother. When she found out about her brotherâs illness, she insisted on marrying him to share his sufferings. But her brother was afraid of hindering her life if he became paralyzed, so he refused to see her. That woman came after him and stayed outside her brotherâs door for three days, saying that as soon as he changed his mind, they would immediately get married.
Her brother didnât come out.
The woman left heartbroken.
A few years later, the disheartened woman got married, and when Xiao Qian returned, her brother was still single. Although he had always been tortured by the disease, he hadnât become paralyzed yet. He was only in his forties, but his hair was already white.
In her previous life, Xiao Qian offered him a good job, he didnât lack money, but he never found a partner. When she asked him, he said he didnât consider getting married for fear of worsening his spondylitis and hindering a womanâs life.
But Xiao Qian knew that he always had that sister, who waited for him for three days, in his heart.
People who are most emotionally attached are able to make âheartlessâ decisions at such moments. Xiao Qian asked herself, if she were her brother, she could never push away the person she loved the most.
Deep down, she always respected her cousin as a man, and now that she is back, she canât stand to see her brother lonely for a lifetime..
