It's my business if I dislike my older brother! My older brother is so adorably silly, what if he gets bullied!

Moreover, he only recently discovered that his older brother is very handsome, gentle, and considerate... and they are not related by blood... hehehehe...

Thinking of this, Jiu Li's expression quickly turned ugly, and she asked with hostility, "Brother, I haven't asked you yet, who is this guy? How come he's with you?"

"He...he is Dongjun, an ordinary volcanic mermaid. We are companions." Jiuxiao said vaguely.

It's not that we're keeping it from Jiu Li, but there's a traitor within Dong Jun's East Sea Fourth District, so it's best not to reveal Dong Jun's identity openly for the time being.

"So that's how it is... Brother, did you say he saved you?" Jiu Li asked innocently.

Long Xun suddenly had an ominous premonition. Why did this plot turn seem so familiar?

“Yes, Dongjun has been taking care of me all this way.” Jiuxiao smiled gently, his azure eyes looking at Dongjun with a tenderness like water. The Volcano Mermaid King looked back at him earnestly and replied, “You took care of me too.”

The two mermaids looked at each other, one smiling gently like a spring breeze, the other with red eyes focused and serious.

Long Xun's ominous premonition grew stronger.

Jiu Li suddenly turned to the side and hugged Jiu Xiao's arm, giving Dong Jun a cute smile: "Thank you so much for saving my brother. Otherwise, after I found out the truth and that my brother had left me... I really wouldn't know what to do!"

Their tender gaze was interrupted. Jiu Xiao held Jiu Li and comforted her with heartache, while Dong Jun remained silent. However, his bright red eyes dimmed considerably when they fell on the two brothers opposite him.

In Long Xun's mind, a hundred thousand grass mud horses galloped wildly.

This scenario! This pattern!

The legendary first love, the unforgettable love, the white moonlight, the eternal first love in the male lead's heart, who is only exposed as a villain after the main couple appears!

WTF!

Uncle Jiu Li, I'm begging you! Can you please stop stubbornly sticking to the villain path?!

—Long Xun said he wanted to be alone.
