"Listen to my excuses... Bah, explain." Xiang Yan looked at Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi who were facing him with serious faces, and his mouth slipped for a moment, then he quickly corrected himself, "This incident was an accident. I just wanted to take Bai Jing for a walk around the area. After all, he just arrived and is not familiar with the place..."
"Yes." Bai Jing nodded quickly, agreeing with Xiang Yan's words, "We were just planning to visit a nearby school at first, but we didn't expect to encounter an accident."
"Accident?" Xiang Yin glanced at Xiang Yan and Bai Jing's clothes with suspicion and found that their clothes were indeed covered with a lot of dust and were a little wrinkled, so her dissatisfaction with her brother who had no news for the whole day was relieved a lot.
But...what kind of accident could have made the clothes so messy?
Some unspeakable images flashed through Xiang Yin's mind. She was startled and quickly looked at Xiang Yan and asked, "What's the accident? Brother, are you okay?"
As Xiang Yin spoke, she unconsciously glanced at Bai Jing who was sitting quietly next to Xiang Yan.
Xiang Shi, who was standing by, couldn't help but cast his worried gaze towards Xiang Yan and Bai Jing, especially staying on their messy clothes for several seconds.
"I'm fine." Looking at Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi who were concerned about him, Xiang Yan felt warm in his heart and explained, "We accidentally encountered a ghost, but fortunately... the ghost messenger saved us."
"Ghost?!!" When Xiang Yin heard that Xiang Yan encountered a ghost, he immediately stood beside Xiang Yan, held his hand worriedly, and checked it carefully, throwing all previous thoughts out of his mind.
However, when Xiang Yin heard that the ghost had saved Xiang Yan and the others, her worried expression instantly eased. Although she was still worried about Xiang Yan, she was no longer as out of control as before and sat back on her sofa.
"Fortunately, we have the ghost catcher..." Xiang Yin breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully.
"Yeah." Xiang Shi nodded, secretly reached out and pulled Xiang Yin, then looked at Bai Jing who had been silent, "Brother Bai Jing also helped, right? Thank you, Brother Bai Jing."
After what happened in the ghost market before, Xiang Shi also knew that Bai Jing was very powerful and cared about his brother very much. If they encountered ghosts, he believed that Bai Jing would not leave Xiang Yan alone.
"Hmm?" Bai Jing, who had been talking to the system in his mind, suddenly heard Xiang Shi's words. He was stunned for a moment and then nodded calmly, "I didn't do anything. It was the ghost messenger who did the most work."
Xiang Yin was pulled by Xiang Shi, and heard Bai Jing's humble words again. She curled her lips silently, and then thanked Bai Jing.
Because Bai Jing and Yi Yuan are generally the same person as Xiang Yan, they look at Xiang Yin and Xiang through a filter, and think that their younger brothers and sisters are very cute no matter how they look at them.
Therefore, Xiang Yan had never noticed that Xiang Yin's attitude towards Bai Jing and Yi Yuan was very different.
Until just now...
Xiang Yan looked at the way Xiang Yin treated the ghost messenger's little fangirl, and then looked at how she treated Bai Jing... She looked defensive as if Bai Jing had stolen her cabbage...
The difference is really not just a little bit.
[A little sad.] Bai Jing pretended to sigh in his heart.
[Stop playing around.] Xiang Yan glanced at Bai Jing. Their consciousness was always shared, so how could they feel sad after being treated differently? Aren’t they all the same?
Xiang Yan turned his gaze to Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi opposite him.
"This is what happened. We accidentally encountered a ghost, and then some things happened. By the time Ihara helped to solve the problem, it was already evening." Xiang Yan continued to explain.
"I'm glad that brother is okay." Seeing that Xiang Yan didn't notice her attitude problem, Xiang Yin quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Xiang Yan.
Now that she knew why Xiang Yan and the others came back so late, Xiang Yin no longer felt angry about not having any news from her brother for the whole day.
Seeing Xiang Yan and Bai Jing looking dusty and dirty, Xiang Yin quickly stood up and looked at Xiang Yan, "Brother, you've been tired all day, go and have a rest!"
After a pause, Xiang Yin turned to look at Bai Jing, "Brother Bai Jing should also go back and rest early."
"Yeah." Xiang Yan nodded, stood up, and Bai Jing also stood up.
"Then I'll go back first." Bai Jing's cute and beautiful eyes looked unusually gentle under the warm yellow light. He looked at Xiang Yan and said goodbye softly.
"Be careful on the road." Xiang Yan nodded and sent Bai Jing to the door.
Xiang Yan watched Bai Jing's back gradually disappear in the dark night, then turned around and went back to the living room.
Xiang Yin: Stare——
Xiang Shi: Stare——
"?" Xiang Yan returned to the living room with a faint smile on his face, only to see his lovely brother and sister staring at him in silence. He looked up in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's okay, brother, go to bed early." The smile on Xiang Yin's lips was a little forced. When she saw Xiang Yan get up to see Bai Jing off, her heart was very... complicated.
[We live next door, is there any need to be so reluctant to leave?] Xiang Yin couldn't stop complaining in her heart, but she still had a well-behaved smile on her face.
"..."Xiang Shi looked at Xiang Yan who had a confused look on his face, and then looked at Xiang Yin who had a forced smile. Suddenly, he had a special feeling in his heart that everyone else was drunk but he was the only one sober.
[Sometimes seeing too much is not a good thing. It’s really sad to know a lot of secrets but have no one to share them with...] Xiang Shi showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and then shook his head slightly with emotion.
"..." Xiang Yan looked at his two younger brothers and sisters with different expressions, and sighed in his heart, 'Brother and sister have grown up, and they all have secrets.' Then he stretched out his hand to rub Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi's hair, and said with a smile: "You should go back and rest early too."
After saying that, Xiang Yan turned and walked towards his room.
Today, I went to the locust tree forest and then to the underground experimental field. The clothes that were originally relatively clean have become covered with dust. Xiang Yan has long wanted to take a good shower.
On the other side, Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi nodded obediently, then watched Xiang Yan walk upstairs and enter the room.
Then……
"Tell me, what does brother think of Bai Jing?" Xiang Yin saw Xiang Yan enter the room, then leaned close to Xiang Shi and asked in a low voice.
"Brother, you're old enough to fall in love." Xiang Shi did not directly answer Xiang Yin's question, but said this lightly.
"But...but..." Xiang Yin thought of her brother who became more and more popular after entering high school, and felt that Xiang Shi was right. Xiang Yan was also seventeen years old, almost eighteen, so it was not impossible for him to fall in love, but...
"I don't think Bai Jing is suitable for my brother." Xiang Yin said.
Xiang Yin felt that a cute and lively boy like Bai Jing didn't look like someone who could take care of others. He was suitable to be a friend but not a boyfriend.
It’s already hard enough for Xiang Yan to take care of them, he doesn’t need a lover who also needs his care.
"As long as my brother likes it." After listening to Xiang Yin's words, Xiang Shi also somewhat agreed. After all, Xiang Yan has been taking care of them since he was a child, and the pressure is always great. He really needs a steady and tolerant lover. However, everything is based on Xiang Yan's own ideas. As long as Xiang Yan likes it, Xiang Shi will respect his opinion.
"That's right." Xiang Yin nodded, then snorted and said, "There's still a lot of time anyway, and we don't even know who the final winner will be."
"..." Glancing at Xiang Yin, Xiang Shi shook his head helplessly, "Let's go back and have a rest."
"Oh." Xiang Yin nodded and followed Xiang Shi back.
It is indeed very late now. They have been worried about Xiang Yan all day and have not had a good rest. Now it is time to go back to sleep.
…
After Xiang Yan walked back to his room, he went straight to the bathroom, taking off his clothes as he walked. In the end, he was completely naked and lay comfortably in the bathtub.
"Huh!" Xiang Yan exhaled gently and soaked in the bath very relaxedly. He looked at the white ceiling with empty eyes and thought about what happened today.
[System, tell me about the seven ghost realms.] Xiang Yan said to the system in his heart.
[Good... dear.] The system was stuck for a moment by the scene of a beautiful woman bathing in front of it, and then continued: [The seven ghost areas, as the name suggests, are seven areas full of ghosts created and ruled by seven powerful evil ghosts.]
