She was the eldest daughter of the An family, a prominent medical lineage, pampered and cherished since childhood. However, due to an accident involving her family's heirloom ring, she unexpect...
Xu Errong looked at An Ran calmly and said, "It's nothing. You are my junior sister. You are my only junior sister. How can I bear to let you take care of these herbs! I can do these rude words myself..."
An Ran couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. That's really good. Why haven't I seen him treat me so well before? What's wrong with my senior brother today?
Also, this tone...something feels so wrong...
An Ran smiled awkwardly. She looked at Xu Errong and said, "Brother, I will definitely accompany you to finish taking care of the herbs tomorrow!"
Xu Errong glanced at An Ran and said calmly, "Junior Sister Yunxi, we don't need to take care of those herbs tomorrow because of the freshman tryouts. Teacher Mo Yu will help take care of them tomorrow. I'm afraid your kindness will be wasted!"
Anran looked at Xu Errong speechlessly. Why did she always feel that something was wrong with her senior brother tonight?
An Yu looked at his precious sister being embarrassed by Xu Errong in such a light way. He couldn't help it and spoke up to help his sister: "Yunxi didn't do what she should have done today because of me. She won't do it again in the future..."
Xu Errong glanced at An Yu calmly and said, "I don't mean to blame my junior sister. Junior Sister Yunxi is my only junior sister. I love her so much, how could I blame her? You think too much..."
An Yu couldn't help but twitch his lips... What happened to Xu Errong? He just said a few words for his sister, why did Xu Errong react so strongly? Why did he feel like an outsider? He was An Ran's biological brother!
Could it be that Xu Errong really dislikes me? !
For a moment, the atmosphere between the three of them became a little weird...
An Ran looked at the resentful Xu Errong, then at the bewildered An Yu. She couldn't help herself and quickly interrupted, saying:
"We still have to go check on the new students tomorrow. Master wants us to do some small things to pick them out. Do you two have any ideas?"
Xu Errong raised an eyebrow and looked at An Ran and said, "Do you need any ideas? Just choose the ones who are pleasing to the eye and strong!"
This matter-of-fact tone made An Ran shudder. Only choose those who he likes? Senior Brother doesn't even like his own brother, so how few people can he like?
Moreover, has he ever considered that the combat effectiveness of the people from the four major families is also quite strong? Is he planning to exclude those people?
If there weren't any members of the four major families among the new students, then... no, they would definitely be hunted down, right?!
An Ran was sweating. Looking at An Yu's complacent expression, she weakly reminded him, "Brother, shouldn't we leave some people for the four major families? Cheating shouldn't be too obvious, right?"
Xu Errong frowned in thought, then glanced at An Ran calmly and said, "Hmm... what you said makes sense. Let's leave a few people for them. As for who they are, we'll decide tomorrow!"
An Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although her senior brother usually seemed indifferent to everything, she knew that there was a beast in his heart, but he usually kept it locked deep inside. However, as long as he encountered something he wanted, he would release the beast in his heart. When his senior brother exploded, he was quite terrifying...
This can be seen from the interaction between her senior brother and Venerable Mo Shang...
She was afraid that her senior brother would be in a bad mood, lose his temper, and do whatever he wanted, and then she would be miserable...
An Ran nodded, and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Xu Errong with some doubt and said, "Brother, have you prepared the things?"
Xu Errong smiled lightly, a smile that was sinister and confident. He said calmly, "Don't worry! With me helping you, there's nothing you can't handle!"
After that, they fell silent again. An Ran looked at An Yu, then at Xu Errong, and carefully suggested, "How about everyone go and rest? See you tomorrow morning?"
An Yu raised an eyebrow, knowing that his sister was trying to give the three of them a way out. He nodded calmly and said, "Okay, then I'll go to rest first. Yunxi, you should go to bed early." After that, he paused and said, "Senior Xu Errong, you should also go to bed early."
Watching An Yu's departing figure, Xu Errong looked at An Ran and said calmly, "Junior Sister Yunxi, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but leaving a boy in your room late at night is not good for your reputation."
An Ran twitched the corner of her mouth in silence. Okay, Senior Brother didn't know that he was her biological brother, so she didn't blame him... But, in the past, Senior Brother and she often discussed alchemy until midnight, and she never heard Senior Brother say anything about reputation...
Seeing Xu Errong's persistence, An Ran nodded and said to Xu Errong helplessly: "Okay, I understand. I will pay attention next time..."
After saying that, she suddenly thought of something and said teasingly, "Brother, you are also a boy, so shouldn't you... go too? It's very late... you should also go to bed early!"
As she spoke, An Ran pushed Xu Errong, pushed him out of the room, and closed the door.
An Ran turned her back to the door, looking at the room that had suddenly become quiet, and let out a long breath. It wasn't that she was timid, but the atmosphere between her senior brother and her brother was really too weird, making her almost breathless...
Xu Errong was pushed out of the door by An Ran. With a "bang", An Ran closed the door. He looked at the closed door and couldn't help feeling sad and angry!
He pointed at the door with a trembling hand, his face full of tears, and he couldn't help but roar in his heart:
"What happened to the brotherhood and sisterhood we promised each other? This is simply too harsh on me! Didn't I just say a few words to Junior Sister Yunxi? Why is she so heartless and cruel? Is this still the well-behaved, cute, intelligent and kind Junior Sister of mine?!
How come she became like this the moment An Yu came over?! She used to be so nice to me!
Although he was a little naughty sometimes, he never contradicted me, let alone pushed me out. Why did he change so much today?!"
Xu Errong looked at An Ran's locked door with a look of grief and indignation, then looked at An Yu's tightly closed door. He suddenly understood something and secretly hated him in his heart: "It's him! It's undoubtedly him! It must be this An Yu who said something to Junior Sister Yun Xi, which made his well-behaved, cute, intelligent and kind Junior Sister become like this!
If it weren't for him, how could my cute, intelligent, and kind-hearted junior sister treat me like this?!"
