After the kiss, Jun Yexuan pressed his forehead against hers, “If you dare to lie to me again, I will do more than kiss you.”
Qiao Qing responded, “If you didn’t watch over me like I was a prisoner and refused to let me get out, I never would’ve come up with such a plan. As you can see, really nothing could’ve happened to me. I can do more than enough to get rid of Di Rong.”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
After he choked for a while, he said, “You were born to make others feel bad, am I right?”
Qiao Qing patted his head and then continued to look at her cell.
Jun Yexuan was used to her method of soothing him. So he sat beside her, “What are you reading that’s making you so focused...”
When he saw the question post she made, acid from his stomach went upwards in his body, “You sure care about your brother.”
Qiao Qing ignored him.
Jun Yexuan continued, “There’s a man sitting right beside you, why don’t you ask me?”
Qiao Qing actually looked up, “You have a good suggestion?”
Jun Yexuan pretended to be a good man and faked to look like he was thinking hard, “You have to think about what he is missing in his life.”
Qiao Qing blinked a few times, “With his status, what would he need?”
Jun Yexuan, “That is true. But he is 28 already and soon to be 29. Don’t you think he’s missing his better half?”
Qiao Qing was a little stifled and slightly frowned, “I can’t gift him a girlfriend. You can’t force those things.”
Jun Yexuan said, “If you have any available friends, you should introduce him. See, even Mu Jinghang found someone because of you.”
Qiao Qing thought about it and shook her head.
Jun Yexuan then continued, “I know a few...”
Qiao Qing interrupted, “Those girls who are harassing my brothers are sent by you, am I right?”
“...” Jun Yexuan responded seriously, “Do I look like the type?”
Qiao Qing nodded, “Yes.”
Jun Yexuan, “...”
In the end, Qiao Qing decided that Jun Yexuan was not to be trusted and kept on thinking herself. In the end, she decided to buy a watch.
The next day, after she got to school with Luo Chen, Qiao Qing asked, “Do you have time at lunch?”
Luo Chen said, “Yes, why?”
Qiao Qing, “Come pick out a man’s watch with him?”
“For sure!” Luo Chen nodded enthusiastically, “Who are you giving it to this time? Someone’s birthday again?”
Qiao Qing nodded, “My brother.”
Luo Chen was surprised, “Which brother? Qi Yusen? Oh right, it’s almost his birthday. January 1st, right? Or else you wouldn’t have invited him to brush your hair.”
Qiao Qing nodded.
Luo Chen continued, “Honestly, that sure is fate. You didn’t have a brother before, which is why you invited him to your coming of age ceremony. However, in the end, he actually is your brother.”
Qiao Qing smiled. That was exactly the case!
As planned, the two went shopping after their morning classes were done.
Qiao Qing ended up buying one she was very happy with at the mall.
After the cashier handed over the wrapped-up product, Qiao Qing tried to leave. However, she saw Luo Chen stare at something else in a different display case.
She walked over. When she got there, she heard him say, “Wrap this one up.”
Qiao Qing look at the product and questioned, “You are trying to learn how to draw?”
“No.” Luo Chen said, “It’s a gift for your brother.”
Qiao Qing, “I bought one.”
Luo Chen glanced at her, “I know. This one is a gift from me.”
