In the past, Xiao Qi slept next door and he did not think much about it. But at this time, he felt a little turmoil in his heart, and he always wanted to get up and see her.
He knew that this idea was wrong. He ran into a little girl’s room in the middle of the night. It was no longer frivolous, but a hooligan.
But this kind of thought was suppressed and popped up again, suppressed and popped up again, which was simply not comfortable.
He suddenly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked to the passage door connecting the two rooms, and stood in front of the calligraphy for a long time. Just when he was about to move his feet, he turned his head sharply, pulled out his legs, and went to the bathroom. He took a basin of cold water and flushed. The whole person was awake, the thoughts that should not be scared away, and the sleepy worm was gone.
At the dinner table the next day, Jiang Rui saw two pieces of blue and black under his eyes.
Because they had a dispute only last night, the two of them were still a little stiff at the beginning, and only when the breakfast was over did they return to their former harmony.
“Take Big Brother’s car.” Watching Jiang Rui put down her chopsticks, Huo Changyao said.
Jiang Rui rinsed her mouth, wiped her mouth, and said, “It’s not going in the same way. You have to make a big circle after Big Brother sends me off, forget it.”
Huo Changyao wanted to say something more. She stood up with a wave of her hand and walked out with her school bag, “I’ll go first. Big Brother eats slowly and has time to take a nap at noon. I think your eye circles are about to turn into a panda.”
Huo Changyao subconsciously arched his fingers to touch his eyes and shook his head helplessly.
Although it had been said the night before that Huo Changyao would not go to her, when Jiang Rui and a group of classmates stepped out of the school gate, they still found the familiar car outside the school gate at a glance. The rear window was lowered a little and the color of the military uniform inside was faintly visible.
Several female students winked at Jiang Rui and said, “Oh, it’s just a little late, so he’ll pick it up. Marshal Huo wouldn’t think we abducted you, right?”
“You know, the last time Susu stayed to take care of the flower garden, Marshal Huo had already come to find her.”
“It’s really inseparable for a moment.” Several people laughed and joked.
Although today’s atmosphere advocates free love and opposes arranged marriages, it seems that the couple arranged by the Huo family seems to have a good relationship. Naturally, no one will be blind and say something unpleasant.
As for the identities of the two original righteous brothers and sisters, it is not a problem in the eyes of these female students. You know, nowadays many students and teachers are married, and the righteous brothers and sisters are at least the same generation.
Jiang Rui said a few words and laughed with them, said goodbye to each other, and walked towards Huo Changyao, “Didn’t I say that you won’t need to pick me up?”
“Go outside the city in the afternoon and come back on the way.” Huo Changyao moved a little bit to the side and said, “Really not going to the department store?”
Jiang Rui shook her head, “I really have nothing to buy recently. Maybe I want to go in a few days.”
“Then, Big Brother will ask you again in a few days.” Huo Changyao said.
“Big Brother has recently become rich? How do you always want to spend money?”
Huo Changyao tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly. Because apart from giving gifts, he could not think of a way to make her happy. So, he had to say, “Just be.”
Back at the Huo Mansion, Huo Changlin and Xu Hansheng also happened to come together. Before it was time for dinner, the four siblings of brothers and sisters were sitting in the garden pergola.
Huo Changlin came to Huo Changyao to discuss what he had mentioned a few days ago about running a textile factory.
Jiang Rui was not very interested in this matter and sat on the side to eat Western pastries.
The pastry was made very exquisitely, a piece was no more than half the size of the palm of her hand. She quickly finished it and was about to go to the house to take another portion. Huo Changyao talked to Huo Changlin while pushing his untouched share and did not forget to explain: “Don’t eat too much, you’ll have dinner right away.”
Jiang Rui nodded repeatedly: “Got it.” That was said, but her actions were not slow at all.
A gust of wind blows and blows a few strands of hair to her mouth and sticks them to her lips. She groaned, her hands were so occupied that she had to rub it with her shoulders. A hand reached over and pinned her hair neatly behind her ears.
“Thank you, Big Brother.” Jiang Rui did not lift her head and continued to eat pastries.
After a while and already eating both servings, she felt a little sticky on her hands. After saying a word, she went into the house to wash her hands.
Huo Changyao watched her run away and suddenly whispered, “You won’t steal food in the house, right?” After finishing speaking, before Huo Changlin and Xu Hansheng could react, he stood up and entered the house.
Huo Changlin was half talking and looked at Xu Hansheng face to face.
“Sixth Brother, don’t you think Big Brother and Xiao Qi are a bit weird?”
Xu Hansheng did not feel anything and said, “Big Brother said a while ago that he was not competent enough as an elder brother. Recently, he has been more concerned about Xiao Qi than before.”
Huo Changlin raised his eyebrows slightly, so is this the brother’s love for his sister?
When talking with him, he pays attention to Xiao Qi throughout the whole process. Seeing that her pastry was finished, he immediately delivered his own. Seeing that her hair was messed up, he tidied it up skillfully. Even he was worried about washing their hands, so he had to take a look.
Is this the brother’s love for his sister? Why didn’t he love Xiao Qi to such a degree?
Huo Changlin looked at Xu Hansheng’s unconscious face and thought to himself: Sixth Brother, you are a bachelor, a boy chicken, and inexperienced, so Second Brother does not blame you for being blind.

The author has something to say:
Xu Hansheng: So is it hurting each other? 🙂
If you enjoy my works, please consider to buy me a cup of Ko-fi ( ˘▽˘)っ♨

Honestly, the author does a great job of introducing loveable characters. Even characters that should be low IQ antagonists can exist in harmony.
