two-way provocation

Qi Mingyu walked up the stairs all the way, and when he passed by the corner of the second floor, he unexpectedly saw a snow-white light that lit up.

He stopped, pushed open the half-open double door and leaned in.

The person who thought he would have a good chat with his sister was sitting alone in the small open living room, holding a novel by Keigo Higashino in his arms.

"Huh?" Qi Mingyu glanced at the familiar bookshelves in the hall, frowned and asked, "Why did you come to my room?"

"Of course, let me stay here." Jin Chen lowered his head indifferently, and turned a page of the book with his fingers.

It's quite friendly.

Qi Mingyu sneered mockingly as he entered the door: "Oh, you just got dismissed casually, you look quite happy."

"Why not."

Jin Chen closed the book, put his two long legs together leisurely, raised his head and smiled and responded: "Cultivating a relationship should be done step by step. A small step for me and Ranran today is a small step for human civilization tomorrow." Stride."

"You really think too much."

Qi Mingyu stepped closer and sat next to him, shaking his index finger and explaining in a deep voice.

"Since I was a child, as long as the second lady doesn't like or doesn't want to deal with people and things, I will handle them all."

Jin Chen's smile didn't change, he just responded with a clear look, as if expressing: If you insist on being so sour, I can't help it.

Then, he looked at the neat desk and the floating bookshelves that covered half of the wall, and the items on it were arranged in an orderly manner.Randomly wipe it with two fingers a few times, and it is also spotless.

"Your house is very clean, it doesn't look like a power generation base for a racing madman."

"Do you have any misunderstanding about me? I have always had this kind of quiet and refined temperament." Qi Mingyu leaned over from the other side of the desk, almost ear-to-eared to Jin Chen's cheek.

The suave expression suddenly became mysterious, and he said in a serious manner: "Actually, I have a secret to tell you, do you want to hear it?"

When Jin Chen heard this, the expression on the corners of his lips froze slightly.

Tonight was not the first time I heard someone talk about secrets.He didn't know if the person in front of him had some kind of subtle awareness like Qi Ran.

It's just that the moment of waiting suddenly makes people feel panic, and even the fingers holding the book are unconsciously clenched a little bit.

Qi Mingyu didn't care about these strange-looking emotions, his waist became shorter and shorter, and he lowered his head while brushing the edge of Jin Chen's broken hair.

Gently hold the back of his somewhat cold hand, and slowly separate those stiff knuckles before he regained consciousness.

Then, he helped him turn the page back, pointed to the name of a certain character on it and said, "He is the murderer."

"..."

A certain person was dragged by Qi Mingyu forcefully like this, walking on the verge of social death.

The boy closed the book with a complicated expression, and responded with his lips pursed: "Thank you, but I will read it myself."

The detective novel that was passed through by the drama became dull, and Jin Chen put it back on the bookshelf.Then he took out his phone and opened a jigsaw puzzle game.

It was a hellishly difficult photo of the lunar surface, and the whole similar gray and white tone is almost impossible to start with.Jin Chen sat in his original position, quietly moving one piece after another with his fingertips.

Qi Mingyu squinted at the person in front of him who was so bored that he used "self-abuse" to pass the time, and frowned in confusion: "But what did she tell you just now? Did she just leave you here?"

"She asked me to wait." Jin Chen patiently swipe the small puzzle pieces on the screen, seemingly indifferently responding.

"Huh?" Doesn't sound like serious hospitality?

Qi Mingyu frowned.

Get up, go to the desk, turn on the laptop, and log in to the surveillance system at home.In the real-time footage of the banquet hall on the first floor, Qi Ran and a large group of friends were found having fun together.

My second young lady is not a person who is not good at rejecting, if she is not interested, there will be countless ways to avoid trouble forever.

But Qi Mingyu couldn't understand this operation at present. He didn't know whether he was deliberately leaving people alone, or he simply forgot about the incident upstairs.

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit too much.

He turned his head and glanced at the person who was still playing with his mobile phone.

Young Master Jin, who had a prosperous family background, would definitely not have received such slights, but his gentle and elegant appearance has not changed in the slightest because of this.

Qi Mingyu turned on his phone calmly, and sent a WeChat message to his sister.

[If you don't get along, you can just say it, why do you have to make people wait? ]

The girl watching the surveillance screen tapped the phone screen and typed, and received a reply after a second delay.

[No, I think he is fine. ]

[Do you really like him? ] Qi Mingyu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Qi Ran sent a puzzled expression over. [Didn't Jin Chen be invited by you?Don't you want me to take a liking to him? ]

[I asked him to come, but I don't object to your proper relationship.Because I think there is no problem with his character, just like Meng Ju and Bai Junyang, he is not acquiescing to anything. ]

Qi Mingyu divided a message into two and sent it. The tone between the lines was not forced but serious enough.

[And of course, you can't consume other people's sincerity and time by virtue of preference. ]

The phone screen froze for a few seconds, and then refreshed with a new reply.

[Brother, you have turned your elbow to the Antarctic Circle.I swear he did it voluntarily, just leave it alone. ]

Qi Mingyu stared at the chat box heavily, and remained silent for a while.

Jin Chen wanted to look up at him, but suddenly the phone he was playing with lightly vibrated twice, and he received a text message from Qi Ran who just added his contact information.

[Brother Jin, turn right at the intersection 200 meters away from the villa area. There is a fried rice noodle restaurant that is very delicious. ]

While Jin Chen was wondering, he suddenly felt that he was picked up by a very strong hand.

Qi Mingyu locked the phone screen, casually put on a coat, and went straight downstairs with the cuff of the person at the table.

"Don't wait, go out for supper with me."

"what?"

In the blink of an eye, the two had followed back and forth into the lively party hall, and Qi Mingyu called Fa Xiao, who was holding a plate and eating cake, to go out together.

"Where are you three going?" Qi Ran, who was still surrounded by a large group of people, smiled brightly.

It was only then that Jin Chen realized what the fried rice noodles meant. Someone could predict Qi Mingyu's behavior so accurately.

"You guys play first, let's go out..." Before he finished speaking, he was forcibly turned back by the people around him.

"Don't be so worthless, you don't need to report to the police."

Qi Ran saw the situation in front of him clearly, couldn't help blinking at Jin Chen and smiled: "Okay, then when you come back later, I'll..."

"We're not coming back tonight."

Jin Chen had no chance to talk to him, and was directly pushed out of the gate by Qi Mingyu.

Meng Ju, who didn't know what happened from the beginning to the end, looked at Qi Mingyu, then turned to Jin Chen, wondering, "What are you two doing?"

"Eat supper." Qi Mingyu responded.

"Ah, I thought what was the matter, then I won't go, I feel uncomfortable after eating." Hearing that it was an activity that he was not interested in, he waved his hands directly at the two of them.

"Why are you running, let's drink together if you don't eat." Qi Mingyu raised his hand and grabbed him.

"Stop drinking, I came by car. I have to go to school tomorrow, so go back to sleep first." Meng Ju took out a small key from his pocket, and shook it in his hand.

Doesn't this kid live next door?Why did you still drive here?

Qi Mingyu looked at Fa Xiao, who had been a neighbor for many years, in bewilderment, until he rolled out a toy truck for children from the yard.

"..."

Meng Ju's height is 183, and his thin body can fit into a single seat, but his two longest legs are stretched across the hood of the toy car.

drip-

Two simulated horns sounded.

"Good night, Makabaka, Yigubigu."

The student with a score of [-] was driving his private car with a happy face, passing between the two dumbfounded onlookers.

After watching the two faint red lights at the rear of the remote control car disappear at the end of Huayuan Road, Qi Mingyu spoke in a disgusted tone.

"Being hammered to death by this guy on the grade list, don't you plan to reflect on yourself?"

Jin Chen also looked away from not far away, and replied, "It's as if you won't be hammered."

When Qi Mingyu returned home, the party had already ended.The two-person world of parents is not over yet, Qi Ran is the only one in the living room watching a drama and eating snacks.

"I brought you some fried rice noodles with chicken." Qi Mingyu put the packing box by her hand, turned around and went upstairs to rest.

"This is really delicious." Qi Ran smiled silently, then pulled the people around her, and tried in a low voice: "Brother, are you angry?"

"Half." Qi Mingyu didn't intend to beat around the bush, and answered straightforwardly.

Qi Ran hugged her elder brother's shoulders, buried her chin in the crook of his arms, and asked softly, "Did my thoughts just disappoint you? ... Or is it because that person is Jin Chen?"

"It doesn't matter who the object is." Qi Mingyu leaned back on the sofa and shook his head: "I always feel that love is eternal and equal."

"In this world, only my parents and I can treat you unconditionally. In addition, all love is directly proportional to income. So, I am not very happy to hear you say who gave voluntarily."

"Then don't be angry, I was wrong." Qi Ran pulled the elastic band of Qi Mingyu's sweater collar, pretending to be coquettish.

"I remember what my father taught me since I was a child. I know what I should stick to and pursue, and I will not be greedy or accept any favors and temptations that go against it."

After the girl finished speaking, her smile became brighter, "Then what is the rest of your mood like?"

Qi Mingyu raised his hand and rubbed the short hair on top of his sister's head.

"Fortunately. My family, Qi Ran, had a good birth and has always been a child who grew up surrounded by stars. So no matter what kind of sweet talk and sugar-coated bullets you face in the future, you will probably not be deceived."

Qi Ran pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "Too busy today, I didn't take care of Brother Jin Chen. Or, I'll apologize to him later."

"That's your own business, I don't care." Qi Mingyu raised one arm and pillowed it under his head, pretending to be indifferent.

"You have to help me find what I like. What does he usually like? People like this who don't need everything are the most difficult to coax."

Speaking of Jin Chen's hobbies, a series of scenes of getting along with him flashed through Qi Mingyu's mind, and every frame was astonishingly clear.

Maybe he was just a naturally memorable guy.

"Winter vacation will be coming soon, and then you can take him back to his hometown to watch the stars." Qi Mingyu said in a deep voice after a while, "I remember he is very interested in that, and he can also visit grandma by the way."

Qi Ran was thoughtful and quiet for a while, lying side by side on the sofa with her brother, until the hands of the clock slowly slid towards the end of the day.

"It will be 12 o'clock soon, is there any wish that I can help you realize?" In the last few minutes of the birthday night, Qi Mingyu turned his head to ask the people around him.

"En." Qi Ran didn't think about it, "What I said just now, you should find time to help me ask his opinion first, I always feel that it seems too reserved for a girl to speak up on her own initiative."

From just now, Qi Mingyu felt that the atmosphere was inexplicably weird, and raised his eyebrows suspiciously: "I don't think I've ever seen you care so much about anyone."

"Are you jealous?" Qi Ran looked at him without any panic. "Actually, it's not difficult to understand. Brother Jin Chen is equivalent to saving my life."

"So?" Qi Mingyu frowned and guessed, "You want to promise yourself?"

Qi Ran shook his head, stood up and went back to the room to eat with chicken and rice noodles, and threw him a sentence before going up the stairs: "You better not guess what a girl is thinking."

The author has something to say:

Qi Ran: So I can only pay him my only brother.
