Chapter 107: Come Over And Greet Your Sister-In-Law
Damn it! He only said the truth! So why was Beixiao staring at him like that?! It was so scary that it sent chills down his spine!
Lu Beichi was so frightened that he did not dare to go down anymore. It was so strange that Beixiao came back together with Ye Qiao.
“Lu Beichi! At least Qiao Qiao is putting in the effort… what about you? You have been lingering around the entire summer break and have not even touched your books!” The old lady came down and rolled her eyes at Beichi. “I heard that you even lost to Qiao Qiao yesterday, right?”
Wakaka, what a real grandmother!
Ye Qiao smiled secretly. However, Lu Beichi’s face turned gloomy at once! Was this even his real grandmother?
“Chi lost a game to Qiao Qiao?” Lu Beixiao raised his eyebrows in surprise. How much else did he not know about this little girl?
“Grandma and Xiao, it was just a free-throw match. I could only win because Beichi accidentally made a mistake!” Ye Qiao answered as she smiled sweetly.
This girl… she was being subtle and humble today… where did her arrogance from yesterday go?! Lu Beichi rolled his eyes at Ye Qiao, but now, he could feel a murderous gaze from his own brother!
“Chi! How did you even make it to this day? Did you really lose to Qiao Qiao at free-throws? I don’t think anyone in the neighborhood would respect you anymore!” Lu Beixiao said sarcastically… Who said bros were before hoes? His wifey was his everything!
Beichi got even more unhappy as Beixiao now looked down on him. He did not even want to have dinner anymore!
Just then, Grandpa Lu came over with a bottle of Maotai. “Hurry up and take a seat!” As the head of the family, he spoke magnanimously.
“Qiao Qiao, come over and have a seat. You can get the books after dinner!” Beixiao pulled a chair for Ye Qiao.
“Chi, go over next door and tell Mr. Ye that Qiao Qiao is going to have dinner at our place!”
Damn it! Beichi, who was just going to have a seat, suffered 10,000 points of damage in his heart! Nonetheless, he could only obey the orders from his brother, so he quickly ran out.
“Grandpa! Grandma! I will help myself!” Ye Qiao said sweetly.
“We are all from the same neighborhood, so don’t be a stranger! Qiao Qiao, look at this table of dishes! Did you realize that you gave us most of the ingredients!? You should come over more often next time… Besides, aren’t you and Chi classmates?” The old lady said with a kind smile.
“Okay!” Ye Qiao nodded her head.
It seems that the little girl had pleased his grandparents even when he was not around. What a sensible girl!
As they were chatting, Xiao Zhang brought in the freshly-cooked chicken soup.
“Stupid old lady!” Beixiao’s grandfather muttered.
Xiao Zhang filled Beixiao’s bowl with the soup and was ready to pass it to him, but he quickly pushed it to Ye Qiao instead. “Qiao Qiao, this is for you. Drink more…” The last two words were so soft that only Ye Qiao could hear them.
Ye Qiao was a changed person. She was growing and would need more nutrients. It was only then that Ye Qiao realized that the chicken soup was specially cooked for her… it was black chicken soup!
“Thank you, Xiao!” She could not help but blush! Apparently, he told his grandma that he wanted to drink chicken soup, but it was actually for her!
She took a mouthful of the chicken soup, and the fragrance of the soup warmed her heart.
“Qiao Qiao, do you like chicken?” Lu Beixiao chatted with Ye Qiao. They already had sex, but he still did not know her very well… what a shame!
“Yes, I do, especially chicken gizzards.” Ye Qiao said with a smile.
Lu Beixiao immediately looked for a chicken gizzard for Ye Qiao. Who knew that Beichi would have one chicken gizzard in his bowl, and that Beixiao would stop Beichi from eating it with his chopsticks.
“Xiao, I like chicken gizzards too.” Beichi looked dumbfounded.
Beixiao replied with his eyes, ‘Who do you think you are?!’
Then, Beixiao snatched the gizzard and put it into Ye Qiao’s bowl!
Pfft…!
Apparently, Xiao was prepared to mistreat his own brother for her!
Beichi was so pitiful… he had no idea what was going on as he did not know about their relationship!!!
“Thank you, Xiao!” Ye Qiao smiled sweetly as she put the savory gizzard into her mouth.
“You’re welcome!”
Beichi watched intensely as the little girl ate it. That was his favorite! That was the only part that he liked of the whole chicken, and now it had been snatched away by Xiao for Ye Qiao, who was the person that he hated the most! He was about to burst in frustration!
Meanwhile, Ye Qiao drank two full bowls of chicken soup, while Beixiao, who was apparently clamoring for chicken soup earlier, only drank half a bowl.
After dinner, both of them used the excuse of going to “look for revision materials” to leave the dinner table and go upstairs.
Beichi, who was clueless, followed them up. Just as he was just about to follow them into Xiao’s room, Xiao blocked the door and glared at him. “Go over there and play!”
And after that, he slammed the door on Beichi. “Bang!”
Lu Beichi was dumbfounded!
What exactly had happened?!
***
The two were in his room now. She was here before in her previous life, and it was the same as the image she had in her memory – it was full of masculinity. The cabinet next to the window was filled with various firearm models that were collected by him. He also had a Michael Jordan poster on his wall.
She stood by the cabinet and looked around when Xiao suddenly hugged her from behind. Ye Qiao turned around, and her back was pressed against the glass door of the cabinet.
“Look up! Let me have a look!”
This little girl who wore a white shirt that complemented her black hair looked so elegant. She looked like a pure and untouched flower, which was completely different from the coquettish girl in his car earlier this afternoon.
Whether she was being pure or flirty, he liked both sides of her.
“Xiao, I am here to look for revision materials! Hurry up and at least get two books for me to pretend!”
“Timid little girl,” he looked at her lovingly and teased.
“…”
“No worries! It’s still early, and I miss you!” He said solemnly as carried her up and let her sit on the desk. “Do you feel uncomfortable?” His deep voice sounded so gentle.
Ye Qiao could not stand him being so gentle and considerate; she was so moved that she dropped herself into his arms and held him tightly with her arms. “No, I already drank two bowls of chicken soup! Xiao, you are the best!”
He did not say anything, as if being nice to her was his responsibility.
“Xiao, before you go abroad, can you come back again?” She started getting unsettled as she remembered that he was going abroad for a year.
“No, I can’t. I am leaving at the end of the month. Anyway, let me get you a few revision books that would be useful! I was ranked first in Science in J Town back in the day!” He said as he gently pushed her away. Then, he walked to the bookcase and took a pile of old materials.
Even though he was a few grades older than her, they were still using the same version of the textbook, so the materials would really be of great use for her.
“I am studying liberal arts! I just need the Mathematics ones… only Maths is giving me a headache. I can actually memorize the other subjects!” Then, she went to the cabinet and started looking for the books she needed. Beixiao went through all his notes carefully and found his Math notes along with some revision materials.
The Math notes were all in his handwriting, which looked vigorous and powerful.
“Let’s go! I will send you back! If it’s too late, your grandfather will start to be suspicious! I used to steal his peaches, so if he knows that I stole his granddaughter too, he will destroy me!” After compiling the notes, he pulled her up and walked towards the door.
She was led out of the room by him, and Beichi, who had just finished playing Contra, coincidentally came out from the opposite room. When he saw the two of them holding hands, the soda bottle in his hand fell onto the floor!
Damn it! What did he just see? It must be an illusion! Perhaps, he had been playing too many games!
Xiao and Qiao, holding hands? How was it possible?!
Beichi blinked his eyes intensely and looked over again.
Ye Qiao instinctively wanted to withdraw her hand, but Xiao held onto her even tighter; his rough hand, which he had used for rigorous training over the years, was firmly wrapped around her hand.
Impossible! Beichi was dumbfounded and refused to believe it.
He hated Ye Qiao, so how could his brother like her?! His brother did not even care about the prettiest girl in the neighborhood!
Although Ye Qiao now was multiple times more beautiful than she was back then, he still could not believe it.
“Chi! Why are you standing there? You are not dreaming! Come over and greet your sister-in-law!” Beixiao said, though his last sentence sounded more like a command.
Fxck!
Sister-in-law?!
Oh, no!
Ye Qiao saw Beichi stomping his feet. He looked at them the same way a kid would look at his father if he had found his kid a stepmother!
She could not help but laugh while looking at this boy in his basketball jersey with pride.
