Xuan Di had never suffered such an insult in his life. He was immediately enraged and punched Huo Chengche in the face, who was grinning smugly.
Huo Chengche had anticipated this, but he didn't expect Xuan Di to be so fierce when he got angry. He barely managed to block the punch with his hand and then narrowly dodged another punch by turning to the side.
Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Huo Chengche wisely stopped being sarcastic and quickly said, "Niannian is asleep in the inner room. Are you going to wake her up?"
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xuan Di's fist, which was filled with anger, stopped abruptly. His face darkened, and he glared fiercely at Huo Chengche.
Huo Chengche pursed his lips, thinking to himself that at this moment, only a certain little cutie could stop Xuandi from punching her in his extreme anger.
Even though he thought this to himself, he still said it sarcastically, "Do you think you're a good brother? Taking your sister out to play during the day and leaving her in the middle of the city is one thing, but when I ask you to sleep with her at night, you leave her alone and go out to play too!"
Huo Chengche looked at Xuan Di, who pursed his lips. Xuan Di's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his gaze seemed ready to tear him apart at any moment. Yet, upon hearing this, Xuan Di didn't refute him. Huo Chengche couldn't help but smile and continued his righteous and stern condemnation:
“Niannian is young and used to sleeping with adults. She will wake up if no one is beside her at night. When she wakes up in the middle of the night and sees the empty bed, isn’t she scared? I went to bring her here, and she just fell asleep peacefully. Now you’re disturbing her again. I really don’t know how there can be a brother like you in the world!”
This is the ultimate way to kill someone by destroying their spirit.
Huo Chengche spoke with righteous indignation, every word hitting the mark. Xuan Di knew perfectly well what kind of wicked schemes Huo Chengche was plotting, but he couldn't help but feel a little weaker, losing the momentum he had just displayed.
Xuan Di gave Huo Chengche a cold glare, snorted, and ultimately did not refute his words. With a dark face, he said, "Has Your Highness finished speaking? Now that I have returned, I thank Your Highness for taking care of my little sister. I will not trouble Your Highness with the rest. I will go and take my little sister back now."
After saying that, Xuandi finally didn't have to push Huo Chengche aside, but instead walked around him and went straight inside. For Xuandi, this was probably the biggest concession he could make.
However, when Huo Chengche saw his action, he stepped forward and blocked his way once again.
"Huo, Cheng, Che!" Xuan Di coldly stared at the person blocking his way, forcing each word out through gritted teeth.
"Fifth Young Master, Niannian just fell asleep. It's already this late. Why do you insist on disturbing her? My bed is plenty big. I don't need Niannian's little bit of space. Fifth Young Master, please do something decent and let Niannian get a good night's sleep." Huo Chengche didn't back down an inch.
“Heh,” Xuan Di sneered as he looked at Huo Chengche, who was preventing him from taking his sister away.
He knew that no matter how eloquently Huo Chengche spoke, this was the bastard's real purpose!
"Why do you have to mess with her?" Xuan Di sneered and asked, "Huo Chengche, do you really not know? If someone's scoundrels were even a little less wicked, I wouldn't be tormenting my sister so late at night!"
Huo Chengche naturally understood what Xuandi meant. He didn't refute it, but just shrugged and smiled, "Fifth Young Master, are you overthinking things? Although I do treat Niannian more than just a sister, how old is Niannian now? Even if I'm a scoundrel, I wouldn't have such filthy thoughts about Niannian."
He simply loved the feeling of the little girl in his arms, as if his whole heart was filled. Only when he felt the warm, soft little bundle of flesh in his arms could his floating heart find its footing.
