Perhaps it was because the corridor was dim and not very well lit, or perhaps it was just that Qin An couldnât read peopleâs faces very well but, in any case, like a blind man it seemed he couldnât see how taut and gloomy his brotherâs face had become at all. Thus, Qin An continued to speak fearlessly: âYou know, if Brother Shen ever changed his mind and asked for Ruan Tian to remarry him one day, judging by how much she seems to like him, she would probably agree right away, right?â
Qin Yuâs face turned even frostier and he swept a freezing gaze over at Qin An. Then, the edges of his mouth curled up into a sneer and he clearly enunciated the words, â**** off, she wonât be getting re-marriedâ
Seemingly realizing that he had poked a hornetâs nest, Qin An hurriedly shut his mouth and followed behind Qin Yu with his head drooping.
When they arrived in front of Ruan Tianâs apartment door, Qin An glanced over at the adjacent door which he knew his brother owned, then said in a low voice: âShould we wake her up? Itâs not like we can take her back to your unit to sleep.â
Qin Yu raised an eyebrow and asked softly, âWhy not?â
Qin An was secretly shocked by his brotherâs question. However, although he felt that doing this wasnât very good, he also didnât quite dare to open his mouth and spout any nonsense at this juncture.
But inside, he felt that when Ruan Tian woke up and found herself lying in his brotherâs bed, she would definitely want to murder his brother directly.
âBig brother, this isnât the way to chase a person.â Qin An muttered under his breath.
The next moment, there was the sound of the key entering the lock and a soft click as the door swung open.
Qin Yu easily pushed the door open with one hand and then changed into the in-door shoes that were next to the door. That done, he began to carry the person in his arms toward his bedroom.
The bedroom was dull and without any particular decorations to show that a person lived there. Qin Yu ignored that and brought Ruan Tian over and laid her down on the bed before helping to take her shoes off. He fell silent for a long moment, then simply covered her with the quilt and stood up to leave.
Qin Yu covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice, then walked out of the bedroom.
He immediately walked over to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of warm water, then took a few sips in order to try to relieve the itching in his throat.
Qin An looked very nervous, and asked in a humble tone: âThen⌠where should I sleep?â
Qin Yu sent him a glare that seemed to say âYou even need to ask this?â, then said, âYou can sleep on the couch.â
Qin An nodded along like a chicken pecking rice. The couch? Alright, the couch it is!
In fact, even if Qin Yu invited him to take the remaining bed, he wouldnât dare to accept!
Qin An took off his shoes and sat on the couch, then pulled a pillow into his arms, mustered up his courage, and finally managed to say the words he had been holding in his heart for a long time: âBig brother, you really canât chase people like this.â
This kind of method⌠he didnât even need to think to know that there was no way it would work or create any good feelings.
Qin Yu raised an eyebrow and assumed a listening posture.
Qin An gritted his teeth. Anyway, he had already started speaking, so he needed to say it all the way to the end: âYou know, as an outsider, I had always thought that you two had a feud with each other. I suspect that Ruan Tian also always thought so as well.â
Qin An really couldnât figure this point out. Had his brother already fallen in love with Ruan Tian, even back in high school when he was treating her like that?
Considering the battles those two had fought back then, most people would only believe it if you said they were dire enemies!
âYou⌠why did you always bully her in high school?â Although Qin An was one year younger than his brotherâs group, he was at least in the same school so he had more or less heard about their deeds.
For instance, Shen Shu had always ignored Ruan Tian and let the whole school watch her attempts to chase him like watching a joke.
Or for instance, his brother who had always spent all his time looking for trouble with her.
His health had also been poor back then and he would often be hospitalized, but after being discharged the thing he would always do was go find Ruan Tian.
Of course, not for anything else except to bully her.
Back then, Qin An had always just taken it for granted that Ruan Tian was a girl full of evil thoughts and that was what caused everyone to hate her, so he had never felt anything was off with all of this.
However, these days, Qin An had actually spent a fair amount of time with Ruan Tian because of their work.
Thanks to that he had learned that, besides her mouth being slightly poisonous, Ruan Tian didnât seem to have any other bad traits.
After analyzing all this information, Qin An had finally discovered the problem. Wasnât his brother clearly attempting to chase Ruan Tian in the style of a f*cking primary schooler? Showcasing the âI like you, so I will bully youâ kind of thinking that usually only a small child would?
