"No way?" Huangfu Qi’s gaze took on a serious hue as he fixed his dark eyes on Huangfu Jue for a moment, his voice tinged with surprise, "That kid is really your son? That means, Gan Yuan is that mysterious girl who’s got you completely enchanted?!"
Without waiting for Huangfu Jue to speak, he had already raised his right hand and snapped his fingers with a pop.
"Got it, how about this time I write about an unmarried mother..." The man who had been lounging lazily on the sofa, as if injected with adrenaline, sprang up and sidled over to Huangfu Jue, "Brother, tell me, give your little brother some inspirational material!"
Huangfu Jue turned and sat down, reaching for a document on the table.
Huangfu Qi turned around, lazily leaned on his desk, "What does she do?"
Huangfu Jue flipped open the document he was holding, ignoring his presence.
No longer paying attention, Huangfu Qi sat on the edge of the desk and stretched out his hand to pull over the telephone, pressing the speaker button.
With slender fingers, he dialed the numbers one by one, then lazily spoke.
"Mom should be there now; perhaps dad is too... what do you think, would mom fly over first thing tomorrow morning if she knew her royal lineage has a successor?"
Huangfu Jue stretched out his hand, hung up the phone, and looked up at his younger brother, who only arched his eyebrows lightly, ignoring his murderous gaze.
"By the way, how did you find her?"
Not in the mood to satisfy Huangfu Qi’s curiosity, Huangfu Jue shifted his gaze away and refocused on the document in his hands.
"I want some peace and quiet for a while."
Turning his head, Huangfu Qi peered at Huangfu Jue’s face to gauge his expression, then hugged his arms and let out a deep sigh, extending his hand to pat his shoulder.
"Congratulations, Duke, you’re beyond saving!"
Having grown up together as twin brothers, there’s probably no one in the world who understands Huangfu Jue better than Huangfu Qi.
Of course, the reverse is also true.
Just from the look on Huangfu Jue’s face, Huangfu Qi had already discerned a clue—their brother truly had feelings for that woman.
The woman he hadn’t forgotten in six years had now reappeared, and seeing his brother’s unsatisfied demeanor, it didn’t take much to know that this time, Huangfu Jue was definitely caught in her hands.
Huangfu Jue took a deep breath and tossed the document onto the table.
"Xiaoqi, I can’t figure it out."
"Women’s hearts are as fathomless as the ocean, I can’t figure it out, let alone you," said Huangfu Qi, patting his shoulder like an old scholar, "Here’s a piece of advice for you, never try to understand women; their thought processes are completely different from men’s."
Yawning lazily, he got up and left the desk.
"I haven’t slept for 32 hours, I’m going to catch up on some sleep!"
Stretching his legs, Huangfu Qi walked to the exit of the study, then turned his face back.
"The show was quite good!"
Over the years, Huangfu Jue rarely took personal charge of such minor matters; his involvement this time showed how much he valued this brand.
Huangfu Qi had hurried back from the Northwest just to support his brother’s event.
Huangfu Jue nodded slightly, his tone already softening.
Although he’s only older by a mere dozen or so minutes, Huangfu Jue has always looked after his brother from a young age, and of course, the same goes now.
"I have," replied Huangfu Qi, leaning against the doorway with a mischievously curved lip, "Speaking of which, want me to teach you how to flirt with girls?"
Huangfu Jue diverted his gaze, "You can leave now."
With a light chuckle, Huangfu Qi opened the door and stepped out.
