Chapter 91, Encounter

The door rang, and Li Donghao stood there, still holding the doorknob.

Li Dongshuo looked at him. If it weren't for Zhang Youyou leaning on him, he would have stood up long ago. But now he could only pitifully ask Li Donghao to carry Zhang Youyou away, while Li Donghao just stood there without moving.

Even at this point, he was still being jealous. Lee Dong-seok regretted coming here, but to avoid being seen as superior to Lee Dong-ho, he waved to him, signaling him to take Zhang Youyou to the bedroom.

He placed the key on the shoe cabinet, changed his shoes, and came in.

"He's drunk!" Li Dongshuo gestured to Li Donghao with his chin. Li Donghao's face was ashen, but he still picked up Zhang Youyou around the waist. Li Dongshuo hurriedly got up to help open the door.

Although she had secretly peeked into the second bedroom before, when she saw Lee Dong-ho placing her on the bed like a precious treasure and preparing to help her take off her slippers, she glared at him when she saw him still standing at the door. Lee Dong-seok immediately turned around and went back to the living room.

Sigh, how come he never knew his brother loved him so deeply?

As part of their Cold War play, Lee Dong-seok very self-disciplinedly put the empty beer bottles and cans into the trash bag. Just as he was about to take the remaining bottles to the kitchen, Lee Dong-ho came out and put the beer back on the coffee table. Lee Dong-seok then beckoned him over.

"It's rare to see her so quiet. If I had known beer was this effective, I would have used it before." He handed a can of beer to his brother, but Li Donghao refused.

"Why did you decide to take her drinking?" Li Donghao sat on the sofa and glanced at the beer bottles lying on the coffee table, his face showing displeasure.

"It wasn't me who took her drinking, it was her who took me!" She finished speaking and gave Li Donghao a wry smile. "You didn't expect that, did you? It turns out that under the mask of a good girl, there's actually a little alcoholic!"

Lee Dongho stared at the beer on the coffee table, then suddenly grabbed a bottle, opened it, and took a big gulp. Lee Dongseok noticed he was in a bad mood and tried to stop him, but to no avail, so he opened a bottle himself and took a small sip.

Although he was holding a bottle of liquor, his eyes were constantly fixed on Lee Dong-ho. When he saw that Lee Dong-seok was about to drink again, he couldn't help but reach out to stop him.

Are you planning to get yourself drunk and end it all?

Lee Dong-ho didn't struggle, but asked with a flicker in his eyes, "Are you planning to marry her?"

As expected, he heard it, and Lee Dong-seok was on the verge of tears.

"Of course not! I've always treated her like a little sister!" Although she's two months older than him, she's too immature. But he can't tell his brother this.

"just in case……"

Lee Dong-seok couldn't stand it anymore and put his arm around his brother's arm, saying helplessly, "Didn't you ever think about fighting for it? Do you have to make her hug you and say she loves you before you'll be satisfied?"

Li Donghao looked at him in confusion, only to hear him soften his tone, lower the hand that had been on his shoulder, and sigh, "We grew up together, I don't believe she has no feelings for you. Give it a try, maybe there's still a chance."

Li Dongshuo dared not say that Zhang Youyou had ever been interested in him; he could only hint at it indirectly.

“What chance do you have? She’s so close to that Meng Xiao, there’s a high chance they’ll get together. Even if they don’t, she’ll choose you. As for me, ha!” Li Donghao took another sip of his drink, his eyes reddening.

Li Dongshuo's expression turned serious as he gripped the bottle in Li Dongshuo's hand.

Are you really willing to just hand her over to someone else?

These words struck a chord with Li Donghao, who stared silently at the hand holding the wine bottle.

Noticing his unusual behavior, Li Dongshuo added, "You're so outstanding, how could you not even win over Zhang Youyou? Bro, give it a try. You have the perfect timing and circumstances now. If you give up now, you might never have another chance."

Silence spread between the two. After a long while, Lee Dong-ho slowly raised his head and exhaled, as if he had made an important decision. Lee Dong-seok said nothing more, but simply withdrew his hand and silently drank with him.
