Chapter 18 Brother will love you forever

The breeze blew, and the corner of the boy's open school uniform fluttered in an arc.

He held the pretty girl in front of him with one hand, his expression serious, as if he was telling her the most important words in his life.

The clouds in the sky were moving, and a beam of dazzling light shone past. The naive girl couldn't help but close her eyes and raised her hand to cover her forehead.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, on the quiet rooftop, the boy and girl standing opposite each other seem like the epitome of youth.

Unfortunately, this is not a confession scene.

Xi Ruan put down his hands, now completely confused.

She thought she was pretty smart, but she couldn't understand why he pulled her here and suddenly said these toxic words.

However, looking at Jiang Lingsi's cold face, she thought it would be better to agree first.

Xi Ruan nodded slightly under Jiang Lingsi's sharp eyes, indicating that she understood. Then she looked down and pointed at her wrist.

Jiang Lingsi glanced at her slender white wrist, raised his eyebrows slightly, calmly let go of her hand, and put his hand in his trouser pocket.

"Do you remember what I said?" Jiang Lingsi was afraid that she would not take it seriously, so he emphasized it again.

Xi Ruan nodded.

Jiang Lingsi thought about it again and again, but still couldn't help it, "Even if he's my brother, I can't do that, understand?"

Xi Ruan frowned, not knowing what nonsense he was talking about. Just as she was about to nod perfunctorily, the door to the rooftop was opened.

"What do you mean even if it's me?"

-

Shen Jiashu appeared at the door, his usually gentle and smiling face now expressionless.

Xi Ruan and Jiang Lingsi looked at him together. Jiang Lingsi tightened his hands in his pockets and felt a little guilty.

According to the description of the plot, the reason why Xi Ruan finally listened to his brother's pleas to spare Liu Yue was because she had always liked him.

Besides, seeing how his brother had specially made an appointment with someone to go to the bookstore, it was obvious that he liked Xi Ruan. As for why he fell in love with Liu Yue in the script, Jiang Lingsi knew without even thinking that it was Liu Yue's doing.

The script was written entirely from Liu Yue's perspective, telling the story of Liu Yue who was adopted as a substitute + counterfeit for a wealthy businessman's lost daughter. After the real daughter returned, she was persecuted and ostracized by the real daughter, and had no choice but to transfer to De Ming Middle School.

When Xi Ruan first appeared, she was described as gloomy, narrow-minded and radical in her thinking. It was said that Xi Ruan was jealous of Liu Yue's singing voice because she was a mute, and Liu Yue, who was unaware of the situation, kept talking to Xi Ruan enthusiastically, but was pushed to the ground by Xi Ruan. Fortunately, her classmates sought justice for her.

The plot portrayed Liu Yue as pure and innocent, and it was impossible to tell that she was a black-hearted person. He even suspected that Liu Yue had written the script herself.

Later in the plot, it was described that Xi Ruan, because he liked his brother and was jealous of Liu Yue's love for his brother, repeatedly targeted Liu Yue, but each of his attacks was resolved cleverly and tactfully by Liu Yue.

Although Jiang Lingsi knew that these things were definitely biased and distorted, he could still see some facts. Otherwise, considering Xi Ruan's ruthless attitude in the later period of the book, if he didn't really like his brother, why would he let go of Liu Yue, who had always wanted to take revenge on him.

But now, he was secretly advising Xi Ruan to be wary of his brother...as if he was trying to sow discord among other people.

"Ling Si, won't you explain to me what happened?" Shen Jiashu walked closer to Jiang Lingsi, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed.

He didn't know what was going on between the two of them, but thinking of Ling Si's usual attitude towards girls, he was worried that Xi Ruan would be wronged, so he hurried over when he got the news, and as a result, he heard this sentence.

Jiang Lingsi didn't know how to answer. He pursed his lips, put his hands in his pockets, and turned his head to look into the distance.

"Ling Si, speak!" Shen Jiashu's eyes were as sharp as arrows, and he asked sternly.

At this moment, Xi Ruan, who was watching silently at the side, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Only then did she realize that the two people's eyebrows and eyes were surprisingly similar.

It's just that Shen Jiashu always smiles, while Jiang Lingsi usually has a cold, distant and sharp face. The two have completely different temperaments, and Shen Jiashu's facial lines are much softer than Jiang Lingsi's. They are not as three-dimensional and profound as Jiang Lingsi's. At first glance, it is impossible to connect the two together, nor do they feel like they are alike.

Xi Ruan blinked and looked at the two brothers in a tense atmosphere. Shen Jiashu looked like he was going to interrogate Jiang Lingsi, and for some reason he became nosy.

She took a few steps forward, stood between the two of them, facing Shen Jiashu, and blocked Jiang Lingsi.

For a moment, Shen Jiashu and Jiang Lingsi were both slightly stunned.

-

Xi Ruan looked up, smiled at Shen Jiashu, and then shook her head gently.

Although she was still smiling, one could see the disapproval in her eyes.

Even though Jiang Lingsi's words were incoherent, Xi Ruan knew that he had no ill intentions and that he mentioned Shen Jiashu only as an example.

It was as if he was reminding her that even when facing someone like Shen Jiashu who seemed to be a good person, she had to stay rational.

So she didn't want to see Jiang Lingsi being scolded by Shen Jiashu like this.

Shen Jiashu was obviously a little surprised by Xi Ruan's action. He relaxed his expression and said softly, "Ling Si didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Jiang Lingsi's eyelashes twitched slightly when he heard the words. He glanced at the delicate figure of the girl in front of him, then turned his head to look at the ground in the distance.

Xi Ruan blinked, as if wondering why he asked that, and then waved her slender hands.

She pointed at herself, then put her palms together, then pointed at Jiang Lingsi, put her middle finger and index finger together and tapped him, and finally raised her thumbs and touched them a few times, then smiled with her eyes curved.

Very simple sign language.

She is saying – we are friends.

Shen Jiashu understood, but didn't believe it at all.

How could his brother have a female friend? Maybe Xi Ruan said this because he was afraid that the two of them would quarrel.

He secretly sighed at the girl's kindness and didn't want to reject her kindness at this moment.

Shen Jiashu said "Okay" in a gentle voice, then asked Xi Ruan to wait here for a while, and reached out to pull Jiang Lingsi away.

"Ling Si, if you are a man, you should take responsibility for your actions. What did you do?" Shen Jiashu lowered his voice.

Jiang Lingsi closed his eyes impatiently, breathed a sigh of relief, and simply gave up, saying in a lazy tone: "I'm here to warn her not to be deceived by men, even you, that's it."

Shen Jiashu's face changed when he heard that, and his eyes became increasingly dark and complicated as he looked at Jiang Lingsi.

Jiang Lingsi could almost imagine his brother treating him coldly from now on.

Although he usually complains that he is like an old man controlling him, the only relatives who truly care about him now are his brother and his aunt.

His shoulders suddenly sank, Jiang Lingsi glanced at the hand on his shoulder, then turned to look at Shen Jiashu.

Then his eyes flickered and his voice trembled: "Ling Si, I never thought that you rely on your brother so much..."

"Don't worry, even if my brother falls in love and has someone he likes, he won't ignore you."

"So you don't need to be so nervous. If you find out that I have someone I like, just warn her in various ways. I will love you forever."

Jiang Lingsi, who was hugged tightly by his brother, frowned.

What is this mess? !

-

When Shen Jiashu, Jiang Lingsi and Xi Ruan appeared in the corridor and went to the cafeteria, the excited crowd frantically took photos and spread the news.

Everyone praised him for being worthy of being the student union president, Jiang Lingsi's brother, as he really had a way to stop Jiang Lingsi and force the two of them to make peace and sit at the same table to eat.

At this time, Jiang Lingsi was concentrating on eating. He felt helpless when he heard Shen Jiashu beside him speaking well of Xi Ruan as if he was afraid that Xi Ruan would be scared.

For the first time, he realized that silly and sweet can not only describe girls, but also his brother.

But he didn't want to explain it clearly, so let it be.

Jiang Lingsi raised his eyes again and looked at Xi Ruan who was diagonally opposite him.

The girl had a sweet smile on her fair face as she listened silently to everything her brother said, occasionally responding with some expressions.

His long, thick eyelashes drooped, and the emotions in his black eyes were unclear.

If she was not mute, she would be able to respond to others with her own voice.

I don't know what this soft bun sounds like.

As soon as the thought flashed through my mind, a familiar voice sounded again.

[Congratulations to the host for actively triggering the main quest!

Mission content: Please find out the truth behind [Xi Ruan]’s voicelessness and her hidden identity within 30 days without resorting to other external means, and try to eliminate some of [Xi Ruan]’s blackening value, and become [Xi Ruan] Best friends! 】

Jiang Lingsi put down his chopsticks and silently looked at the other contents of the task interface.

At the same time, Liu Yue, who had finished her meal and was about to leave the cafeteria, looked at Xi Ruan and the boy opposite her from afar, with a slightly cold smile on her lips.

It turns out that this is her benefactor.
