Chapter 113 The Fight Between Two Brothers
"What brother?" Nangong Jue asked.
Xiao Taozhi pointed at someone not far away, "Brother Xuanxuan."
Xuanxuan...brother?
Nangong Jue looked in the direction the little guy pointed, and saw that the boy had an ugly expression on his face and was also looking over here.
But when he met Nangong Jue's sharp gaze, the boy turned his face away instantly.
Nangong Jue vaguely understood that the boy was most likely Xiao Taozhi's biological brother.
But this biological brother is not very good.
"Hey, are you Zhizhi's brother?"
Nangong Jue walked up to Bo Xuanyu with his head held high. The two young men stood together. Nangong Jue, with his height advantage, had a much higher aura than Bo Xuanyu.
Bo Xuanyu subconsciously took a step back and stared at Nangong Jue warily: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not her brother... She's just a bastard picked up by my third uncle, not a member of my Bo family!"
"Having a brother like you, Xiao Taozhi is truly unlucky."
Nangong Jue sneered disdainfully and went to find Xiao Taozhi.
"What do you care?"
Bo Xuanyu shouted at Nangong Jue's back.
What kind of people are they? You don’t even know me, yet you’re meddling in other people’s business for no reason!
etc……
He seemed to have just heard that boy call that little bastard... Xiao Taozhi...
"Xiao Taozhi, just sell your brother for 9.9 yuan!" Nangong Jue said angrily.
It was the first time he had seen such an incompetent brother.
"Are you okay?"
Glancing at the red mark on the tender little white palm, Nangong Jue frowned, "Does it hurt?"
“It only hurts a little bit.”
Xiao Taozhi deliberately put on a relaxed look and smiled sweetly at Nangong Jue.
Nangong Jue was a little worried, so he took the little guy to the infirmary to bandage his wound.
"Brother Jue, have you seen Brother Ji Sui? Zhizhi hasn't seen him for several days..."
Thinking of Chen Jisui, Xiao Taozhi's delicate eyebrows revealed a worried look.
"Chen Jisui..."
To be honest, he hadn't seen Chen Jisui for a long time since he left Chen Jisui's house last time. Chen Jisui didn't even come to the make-up class last Saturday.
"The teacher said he was sick."
"Are you sick?"
Xiao Taozhi's tone suddenly became hurried, and she even forgot about what was on her hands. Her bandaged hand directly grabbed Nangong Jue's arm.
"Um."
Nangong Jue pulled off Tao Zhi's little claws and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll go visit him on behalf of the whole class later."
"Zhizhi, can you go with your brother?" Little Taozhi's deer eyes suddenly lit up.
"OK."
"Then let's go now!"
Xiao Taozhi couldn't wait any longer, so she rolled off the bed and walked towards the door.
The two of them had to cross the playground to leave the school.
The little guy suddenly stopped in front of a stall selling second-hand stationery.
"What's wrong?" Nangong Jue came over.
The stationery seller was a senior girl. She asked enthusiastically, "Little classmate, do you want to buy some stationery?"
His clear eyes scanned the stall and finally landed on a piece of tape in the corner.
"Sister Piao Niang, I want this!" Xiao Taozhi's eyes suddenly lit up. "How much does it cost?"
There was a thick layer of dust on the tape, and no one knew where it came from. The young lady was too embarrassed to take the money, so she just gave it to Xiao Taozhi.
"Thank you, sister~" the little guy thanked her sweetly.
She wiped off the dust on the tape, and as the dust on the tape was wiped off, the pattern on the tape appeared.
Looking at the Ultraman pattern on it, the little guy smiled happily, then carefully put it in his trouser pocket.
-
Federal ghetto.
When Nangong Jue and Xiao Taozhi arrived, they happened to run into Chen Jisui's adoptive mother, Liu Pingping. The woman was muttering in a daze, "What a sin to have such an unlucky star. Your parents are dead, but you insist on living on like this. You might as well just die! You're just causing trouble for others all day long..."
Bumping into Nangong Jue head-on, Liu Pingping's expression instantly brightened. "Master Nangong, why are you here, little noble?"
The day after Nangong Jue left, someone came to her house and gave her a large sum of money, asking her to renovate her house.
Liu Pingping knew immediately that this classmate Chen Jisui must be either rich or noble.
"Hello, Aunt Liu."
Although Nangong Jue didn't like his stepmother, Chen Jisui, he still greeted her out of courtesy, "I heard that classmate Chen Jisui was sick, and I'm here to visit him on behalf of the whole class."
"You're so polite, Master Nangong. You said it would be enough if you just showed up. Why did you bring fruit? I'm so sorry."
Having said this, Liu Pingping snatched the fruit basket from Nangong Jue's hand, and her eyes lit up when she saw the tag on the side of the fruit basket.
This brand of fruits is really good. They are picked from other countries and shipped here by airships. They are so precious!
It will definitely fetch a lot of money if you sell it!
"Of course, Auntie, could you open the door for me?"
“Okay, okay!”
Liu Ping hurried back to open the door, but still couldn't help but persuade: "Master Nangong, Chen Jisui is lying in bed. But I have to remind you, he has been unconscious in bed for two days and has a high fever. You'd better not go in. What if he has some plague and infects you? That would be a great sin! After all, your precious body..."
"Aunt Liu, you're making it sound too serious. Student Chen just has a common cold. He even called our teacher this morning to ask for sick leave." Nangong Jue couldn't stand Liu Pingping's sarcastic words and suddenly interrupted her.
He always felt that the tone of Shen Jisui's stepmother's words was as if she wished Shen Jisui to die quickly.
"Okay, Auntie has something else to do. The child can't eat this basket of fruit. It would be a shame if it goes bad. Auntie will take it away right away."
Liu Pingping did not stop him. She said a few polite words to Nangong Jue and left with the fruit basket.
"Brother Jue."
In the dim corridor, Xiao Taozhi suddenly reached out and pulled the corner of Nangong Jue's clothes.
"What's wrong?"
The little guy said honestly: "Zhizhi doesn't like brother Ji Sui's mom..."
“Yeah,” Nangong Jue nodded, “I don’t like it either.”
As soon as she entered the room, Xiao Taozhi couldn't wait to rush into Shen Jisui's room.
The moment he opened the door, the little guy was stunned.
The young man was pale, covered in blood, with wounds of all sizes all over his body. He was lying weakly on the small iron window.
Hearing the noise, the boy's long eyelashes moved and he turned to look at the door.
"Brother Ji Sui..."
Xiao Taozhi rushed over suddenly, and tears rolled down her cheeks, falling like a spring, and she couldn't stop them.
"Little...Tao Zhi?"
Chen Ji's cracked and pale lips moved twice, and he squeezed out these three syllables from his throat with difficulty.
