After a series of not-too-complicated ceremonies, Chu Shangli arranged for Lian Tianning to stay in a private residence of the Chu family that few people knew about, while he and Chu Moyin returned home together.
I left home for a short while, but when I returned home, I felt that my brother and father's attitudes had not changed much.
No, it would be more accurate to say that there has been basically no change.
It was as if I hadn't left home at all, I had just gone out shopping.
I even felt that my brother Chu He's smile looked quite fake.
“Ah, you’re back—!”
It took me nearly a minute to realize that I should say this extremely simple sentence.
"Don't you guys ask me where I've been?"
"You told me before that you were going to a classmate's house, so we didn't take it seriously. After all, you're fifteen years old, and you have your own personal matters. If we ask too much, we'll definitely become the annoying brother with a sister complex."
"I think sister control is great..."
"Of course, if you were young, you would definitely feel safe if you had someone older than you who protected you unconditionally. However, in two years, if the brother and sister are still close to each other, they will be gossiped about by others - although the sister doesn't have this problem -" Chu He glanced at Chu Moyin intentionally or unintentionally: "But the premise is that the sister must be someone who truly cares about her sister, and not the kind of sister who is full of evil intentions and as vicious as in fairy tales, but the fantasy-loving protagonists in fairy tales can't see it -"
"The protagonists in fairy tales are generally older sisters brought up by their stepmothers. If we use this standard, I don't fit the bill at all. Chu He, you seem to be closer to this concept."
Chu Moyin said sarcastically:
"Heh, is it so hard for you to be a little more gentle? You're clearly living under someone else's roof—"
"Same here—if we're talking about capital for arrogance, I think I have much more capital than you—"
Chu Moyin stepped onto the stairs, shook her hair, and hooked her hand at Chu Shangli.
"Ali, come here, don't you still have homework that needs my help?"
She deliberately raised her voice. Chu He rolled his eyes and sneered, "Why are you suddenly so kind? Did you get exposed during the competition, and now your pride is hurt? So you have to re-maintain the relationship with the Chu family that you've begun to despise?"
"If I want to maintain a good relationship, I don't think I can use this tone to talk to you now. Stop brainwashing me. If you understand a little, you will know that what I care about is not the Chu family, nor anything else. If you insist on thinking that I am using my own methods to please you, there is nothing I can do. After all, my head is on my neck, and I have no say in what I want to say. "
Chu Moyin shrugged and stepped onto the stairs——
"Oh right..." Chu He seemed to remember something and pulled Chu Shangli back.
"I just suddenly remembered something and wanted to talk to Ali alone. If you don't wait for her, it's likely that she has seen through your viciousness and doesn't intend to continue communicating with you. There's no need for you to wait any longer."
Chu Moyin made a "tsk" sound and continued on his way nonchalantly.
"Speaking of which, Ali——"
After Chu Moyin left the living room, Chu He asked her quietly, "Where were you during the martial arts competition? If you were with Chu Moyin the whole time, then I should have seen you too—"
