“Eating crab roe dumplings can nourish my mind? Are you being superstitious?” Xu Jiaojiao did not believe him and quickly retorted.
Fine, she was right. He was being superstitious, but this young lady was too innocent. He wondered if she would be at a disadvantage when she entered society in the future.
Just as Qi Shenbai was worried, Qi Yunduo walked in from the door. “Hello, Big Brother. Hello, Sister-in-law.”
Xu Jiaojiao had just finished her small crab roe bun. “Good morning, Yunduo.”
Qi Shenbai specifically instructed the chef to make the buns smaller so that it would be easier for Xu Jiaojiao to eat them.
Currently, Xu Jiaojiao was only thinking about exams. Exams were the only thing on her mind. After eating, she prepared to go upstairs to get her things and go to school.
When Qi Yunduo saw Xu Jiaojiao go upstairs, she quietly walked to Qi Shenbai’s side. However, Qi Shenbai’s face was gloomy and he did not even look at her.
“Big brother…” Qi Yunduo said carefully.
“What is it? Just spit it out!” Qi Shenbai did not want to waste time with her. All he could think of was Xu Jiaojiao’s nonchalant attitude.
“Can’t I come to you for no reason?” Qi Yunduo asked.
Hearing this, Qi Shenbai raised his head and looked at her…
Time passed bit by bit. He had no intention of looking away. Being stared at like this, Qi Yunxiao finally could not take it anymore. “It’s like this, Big Brother. I have a friend who passed our company’s interview and the results of the second round are not bad. If he comes to the company, can you…”
“No!” Qi Shenbai answered without thinking.
“You haven’t seen him yet, how do you know he can’t do it?” Qi Yunduo felt that her brother was so heartless! She had not even finished speaking, and he already said no… He did not give her any face at all! She was still a member of the Qi family, after all!
“There’s no need for me to meet him. You two aren’t compatible.” Qi Shenbai did not want to waste his breath on her and went straight to the point.
Hearing Qi Shenbai’s words, Qi Yunduo finally understood. “Big Brother, you sent someone to keep an eye on me?” She would never have thought that her big brother had already known about the secret that she had been keeping.
Qi Shenbai coldly smashed the half-empty glass of milk on the dining table. Bang! The sound made Qi Yunduo’s heart tremble.
But for the sake of the person she liked, she had to give it her all. “Brother, he’s very outstanding and smart. If you give him a chance, he’ll definitely do a good job.”
Qi Yunduo still wanted to fight for the person she liked. Although she had yet to enter society, she knew that it was difficult for someone who had just graduated to enter a big company. It was even harder for them to stand out. He might be suppressed by the managers and never be able to stand out.
“There are many smart people in our company. We don’t lack another, especially smart alecks like him.” Qi Shenbai’s words implied something, but Qi Yunduo did not understand at all.
“Brother…” Qi Yunduo wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Qi Shenbai’s cold gaze.
“If you want to date, I can find you a boyfriend. What type do you want?” Qi Shenbai said calmly. With her status as Qi Shenbai’s sister, she could find any upper-class boyfriend she wanted.
Qi Yunduo said, “I only want Zhao Yunxiao.”
This was the first time Qi Yunduo had disobeyed him for the sake of the person she liked.
“Brother, is it because his family is poor that you’re like this…? But what era are we in now? Who cares about the circumstances of his birth? Sister-in-law’s family isn’t as rich as ours, either…”
Qi Yunduo spoke logically, but Qi Shenbai ignored her. He was still worried about Xu Jiaojiao’s attitude just now! Why didn’t his little girl care about him?
There were already women rushing over to meet him, but she did not care. He did not know if she had low EQor she was just too innocent.
Qi Shenbai took his coat from the butler and buttoned them up. “You’d better not be with that Zhao guy, unless you break away from this family.”
To put it bluntly, unless she severed all ties with the Qi family, he would never allow her to be with Zhao Yunxiao.
“Brother, you’re too much! Nowadays, what we advocate is freedom of love. You’re acting like a feudal lord!” Qi Yunduo felt upset. She just wanted a relationship. Why did it have to be so complicated? Did he want her to get an arranged marriage?
Qi Shenbai ignored her and went out directly. Every one of them made him worry that morning.
Xu Jiaojiao carried her things downstairs and saw that Qi Shenbai was no longer around. Only Qi Yunduo was left standing there sulking with tears in her eyes.
“What’s wrong? Did you quarrel with your brother?” Xu Jiaojiao hurried forward to comfort her. She patted Qi Yunduo’s back to comfort her.
“Sister-in-law, please help me! If you don’t help me, there’s nothing I can do.” Qi Yunduo hugged Xu Jiaojiao..
