Tomb Raider: Nine Gates Let Me Be the Group’s Pet

When they returned to the mansion, Zhang Qishan instructed the servants to arrange matters related to Yin Xinyue.

But who could have expected that Yin Xinyue's words about sleeping with Zhang Qishan almost made the atmosphere in Zhang's house freeze.

When she said this, many people present were shocked.

"Cough-cough--" The most pitiful one was Zhang Zixi. She had just sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea when she was startled by Yin Xinyue's words and choked and coughed a few times.

Although Adjutant Zhang was also shocked, he was the first to react when he saw Zhang Zixi like this. He quickly took the hot tea away from her hand and asked someone to take it away, fearing that she would get scalded if she didn't hold it firmly.

Zhang Qishan saw that everyone was standing there in a daze, unable to move, and didn't know what to do. He couldn't keep his face, but he couldn't get angry at Yin Xinyue.

Seeing this, everyone left one after another. Even Adjutant Zhang, seeing that Zhang Qishan was in a bad mood, did not dare to stay there any longer and hurriedly left the living room and went to his room.

After much persuasion, Yin Xinyue finally left the living room and followed the servants to the arranged guest room.

Zhang Zixi had just recovered her breath and when she saw everyone leaving, she suddenly sat down next to her brother and started gossiping.

"Brother, is this Miss Yin really my future sister-in-law?"

"You believe whatever she says. Have you recognized me when you saw me? You even call me sister-in-law, but you seem to be very familiar with me." Seeing that his sister actually agreed to Yin Xinyue's wishes, Zhang Qishan shook his head helplessly while holding the teacup.

"But, I think Miss Yin really likes you."

"My life is entrusted to the battlefield. What do you think she can gain by following me?"

"But I see that Miss Yin seems to be obsessed with you, brother. What are you going to do?" Zhang Zixi knew that her brother had the interests of his country and family in his heart. He didn't want Yin Xinyue to stay not because he really hated her, but because he felt he couldn't give her what she wanted.

Zhang Qishan sighed. He really couldn't come up with a solution for a while. "If it weren't for you, I would have left her today." Zhang Qishan turned his head and poked his sister's forehead with his finger.

"Anyway, I think Miss Yin is pretty cute. If she becomes my sister-in-law, I'd agree!" Zhang Zixi whispered in Zhang Qishan's ear and then ran away with a smile, as if she was afraid that Zhang Qishan would catch her and scold her.

"You..." Zhang Qishan was choked by his sister's words and didn't know what to say. Seeing her running away quickly, he was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

"Brother, you should quickly develop a good relationship with Miss Yin and marry her as soon as possible. Don't worry about me." Zhang Zixi turned around, slowed down her pace, and made a face at Zhang Qishan.

This girl... really... why doesn't she help me at all, Zhang Qishan thought.

"Don't go out so late!" Zhang Qishan saw her running into the yard and reacted quickly to stop her.

"I'm not going out! I'm going to play with my adjutant~" Zhang Zixi turned her back to her brother and waved her hand indifferently.

"Adjutant, do you think Miss Yin will really become my sister-in-law?"

Zhang Zixi was tossing an apple back and forth, propping up her head and asking Adjutant Zhang.

"I don't know either...but Miss Yin seems to like Mr. Buddha very much."

"Then will brother like Miss Yin? Adjutant, what is it like to like someone?" Zhang Zixi turned her head and looked at him with confusion.

"Well... liking someone... should... should mean wanting to see her every day, thinking about her all the time, wanting to protect her, and being willing to do anything for her."

Adjutant Zhang lowered his head and answered her. He had originally returned to his room to read a book and never thought that Zhang Zixi would come to the room to chat with him. At this time, he had not yet recovered from the surprise and spoke haltingly.

"Is that so... What if one day I don't see you?"

"If I can't see you, I'll be worried and miss you..."

"What if there is a price to pay for protecting the other party?"

"Maybe... I won't care... Maybe I will react before I think about it."

"Is this what love means?" Zhang Zixi said to herself. She was tired of throwing the apple in her hand, so she just started eating it.

"Miss... do you have someone you like? Why are you suddenly interested in these things..." Adjutant Zhang thought secretly.
