Chapter 18 Beautiful Eyebrows and Picturesque Scenery

After a long while, Yunxia, ​​who was covered in sweat from running, found a clean rock to sit down. Just as she was about to unbutton her collar to cool off, Jiang Chao grabbed her hand.

"Sweating and being exposed to the wind, you think you're too healthy, huh?"

Uh, I got so caught up in the heat that I forgot it's winter!

"Oh, I don't understand, you let go!"

The boy narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a few seconds, as if trying to confirm something.

"I keep my word, I absolutely don't understand!"

Jiang Chao then let go of her hand, pulled Yun Xia to a secluded spot, and angrily stuffed the small towel into her arms.

Yun Xia, who was holding the towel, was a little confused for a moment. What... what was he doing?

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and wipe your sweat, I'm waiting to go home!"

After saying that, he consciously slipped away. Yun Xia was stunned for a few seconds before she understood what he meant. She chuckled, grabbed a small towel, and reached into her clothes to wipe her sweat.

Five minutes later, Yunxia, ​​having wiped away her sweat, returned the small towel to Jiang Chao and went down the mountain with him.

"Girl, little butterfly, phew, I've finally found you!"

Yunxia: ...Are you calling me?

Looking back, I saw a young boy in a white coat, panting heavily, running towards me. He was very handsome, like a character from a poster who had stepped into the real world.

"Hey, Jiang Chao, it's you! You've come to the western suburbs to play too."

The gloomy young man, as if facing a formidable enemy, pulled the little girl behind him and said coldly, "Feng Jingling, what kind of trouble are you causing now?"

"Jiang Chao, we're in the same class, are you misunderstanding something about me?"

The boy's eyes grew colder, his gaze towards him becoming increasingly wary and hostile. "There's no misunderstanding. Yunxia is my sister. You're not allowed to touch her!"

Hmm, what does "unilaterally drawing swords" mean?

"Yunxia... What a nice name. Little Butterfly Sister, I just drew a picture for you. Here, it's a gift for you."

Jiang Chao suddenly snatched the drawing paper and opened it!

The little girl, with a bright smile, tiptoed to reach for the winter plum blossoms on the branch to smell them. Even her eyelashes and the stamens of the flowers were clearly visible. It seemed that Feng Jingling couldn't help but steal a glance at her.

"Wow, the drawing is so lifelike, it looks just like the real thing! Thank you, big brother!"

Jiang Chao glared at the little drama queen, then tore the drawing paper to shreds. "Feng Jingling, stay away from my family."

Yunxia: ...My photo (painting), you stinky Jiang Chao, just you wait!

The boy in the white coat seemed to have a good temper. When his painting was torn up, he didn't get angry; instead, he laughed.

"Get treatment as soon as you're sick, don't go out and harm others!"

"Jiang Chao, I've had a photographic memory since I was a child. Tearing up pictures... is childish. If you're so capable, erase the memories from my mind. Otherwise... go home and draw a few more to give to my lovely little butterfly sister."

"Brother Ling, you didn't even wait for me! How annoying!"

Her sweet, complaining tone gave people goosebumps.

Upon seeing Jiang Chao, the girl in the yellow coat reacted as if she were seeing foul-smelling garbage. She covered her nose, backed away in disgust, and scolded him:

"Jiang Chao, is this a place for you? Hmph, it stinks and pollutes the air. Tell me, did you bully Brother Ling again? Be careful, or I'll have someone beat you up!"

The boy in the white coat narrowed his eyes and said unhappily, "Huang Chengcheng, Jiang Chao is my friend. You are not allowed to talk about him like that. Apologize now."

The girl's eyes were filled with tears as she stared resentfully at the boy in the white coat, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Zhiwei saw that he had only met two classmates, one of whom harbored great hostility towards Jiang Chao, indicating that his campus life was not easy.

At home, they can argue and make a fuss as they please, and they won't hold back when they're bickering. But when they're out in public, they have to be extra protective of their little ones!

She grabbed Jiang Chao's wrist, brought it to her nose and sniffed it intensely. Finally, she sighed with satisfaction and said, "Brother, what perfume are you using? It smells so good! You stingy little thing, you won't even share with your sister!"

Little drama queen, you acted quite well!

"No incense was used."

"Oh? You're not kidding me? Then... then it must be your natural scent, hehe, let me smell it again."

With an affected tone and a smug little expression, she successfully amused Feng Jingling, "Little butterfly, how about coming to my house and being my little sister?"

Yunxia raised her eyes slightly and glanced at the sulking Huang Chengcheng. "No, big brother, you don't need the little butterfly. You already have a long-leaved orchid by your side!"

The girl didn't know what the flower was, but just from its name, she knew it was something extraordinary. She tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and held her head high with an air of arrogance.

"Little Butterfly, you are so knowledgeable! You know the characteristics of such a rare flower so well. Jiang Chao, I am so envious of your sister!"

Yun Xia smiled knowingly, "Likewise!"

Wow, is playing charades fun?

Jiang Chao pulled her behind him again and snorted coldly, "Feng Jingling, put away your disgusting face. Xiaxia and I have things to do. You and your damn orchid, just enjoy the scenery here!"

Upon hearing this, the boy in the white coat immediately lost all his smile. His lips parted slightly, but before he could utter a word, Jiang Chao pulled Little Butterfly away. He couldn't help but feel lost and sighed.

"Phew, they're finally gone. The stench from those two siblings almost made me faint. Brother Ling, the winter plum blossoms over there are blooming beautifully, let's go take a look!"

"Huang Chengcheng, who do you think you are? You think you can bully Jiang Chao? Get lost, or else... the Huang family's business, hmph!"

After saying that, he gave a disdainful smile, crossed his hands behind his head, and walked away, ignoring the tearful girl.

Only when her long, sharp nails dug into her flesh did the girl calm down slightly. She glared angrily at the direction down the mountain, thinking to herself, "Jiang Chao, I'm not done with you yet."

...

As soon as they reached the foot of Mount Putuo, Jiang Chao suddenly asked coldly, "What's so special about this Phalaenopsis orchid?"

"Oh, so the reason you've been frowning all this time isn't because of your older brother and your naughty older sister, but because of this?"

You know what, sometimes Jiang Chao's curiosity is exceptionally strong!

"Ha, them? They're not worthy to affect my emotions!"

"Yo!"

"Speak quickly, or else... explain the origin of the melon."

Suddenly, Yun Xia froze, standing motionless. Amused by her silly expression, Jiang Chao poked her cheek with his finger.

How could he possibly suspect Melon?

This... the disguise was only worn for a few days, and it's already been exposed??

"Ahem, that day at the market, I met an old man huddled in a corner. His basket, covered in wet mud, was full of melons. He had money in his pocket and wanted to eat some, so he picked out quite a few."

Successfully activated the "lying without thinking" attribute. Give yourself a thumbs up for your cleverness!

"Ha!"

Jiang Chao didn't believe a single word the little drama queen said.

“You stinky Jiang Chao, if you don’t believe me, let’s go to the market right now and search high and low, we’ll find that old man from that day.”

Of course, the market is closed on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the old man is a character she made up!

"You've got more tricks up your sleeve than anyone else, but I'll let you off the hook this time. Tell me, what exactly is this 'phoenix orchid'?"

Gloomy young man Jiang Chao: Stop right there! Hand over all your recommendation votes and monthly tickets, or else... I'll cry for you.
