Excessive mental energy consumption,
Jiang Rao's eyes fell on his young wife.
He leaned his hands on the edge of the bed, trying to stay awake and wait for the person to wake up.
Fortunately, he was not disappointed.
"Ahem...Brother..."
Jiang Qing opened her eyes, and the first person she saw was her brother.
My mind froze for a moment.
She stared at the man, her lips curled up, "Brother, am I dreaming? It turns out that the underworld is very similar to the place where I lived..."
Wherever my eyes fall, it feels familiar yet strange.
Until her eyes turned to the books on the desk.
It was her birthday present to her brother.
Jiang Qing paused and tried to sit up.
Something is wrong.
Why does this look so much like my brother's room?
Could it be that God knew that she had regrets in her heart and fulfilled her wishes after his death?
If so, could she go even further?
She wanted to hug her brother.
The thought just flashed through my mind.
My vision turned black and my breath was filled with the scent of bamboo.
She was held tightly in the man's arms.
The touch feels too real.
This dream felt so real.
It was so real that she couldn't tell the difference between reality and fantasy.
"Silly, why don't you fight back when you are bullied? How can I, Jiang Rao's sister, let others bully me?"
The man's lessons rang in my ears.
It is so familiar and pleasant.
Jiang Qing leaned on his arms and looked up at the man, "Brother, I'm not dead?"
A silly one.
It's his fault for not protecting the little fool.
A trace of heartache flashed across Jiang Rao's eyes.
He raised his hand and poked her nose. "You, if you say something I don't want to hear again, I will punish you."
Clear touch, not like a dream.
Jiang Qing finally confirmed that she was rescued by her brother.
She buried her head and rubbed the man's clothes. "Brother, I thought I was going to die and that I would never see you again..."
As Jiang Qing spoke, her nose felt sore and tears fell from her eyes, soaking the man's clothes.
Circles of tear marks appeared on the ink-black gown.
Jiang Qing burst into laughter and even deliberately rubbed the tears on her face onto the man's clothes.
It might be a near-death experience.
She suddenly became bold.
It's just life, no one can escape it.
Being cowardly and retreating all the time will only make those who bully her become more aggressive.
Taking a step back does not mean peace of mind, but endless ridicule and disdain.
It is enough to experience this kind of suffering once.
As for my brother.
She wanted to try again.
Her brother no longer looked at her with disgust and no longer said harsh words to her.
Does that prove that she can get one step closer to her brother?
She didn't want to be a coward anymore.
Happiness is something you have to fight for yourself.
If you know what's in your heart, you will know that it is better to reveal yourself completely.
Be unreserved in front of your brother.
This time falling into the pool made her understand many things.
She wanted to try once.
She took the initiative to stretch out her hands and wrap them around the man's waist, holding him tighter and tighter, giving the illusion that the man was holding her in his arms.
"Brother, Qing'er likes you, can you please stop pushing me away..."
Jiang Rao raised his hand and placed it on his young wife's shoulder. He could clearly feel the person in his arms' body tense and trembling slightly.
This silly girl is nervous.
Even though what I said made sense, I still cared about his thoughts and was afraid that he would refuse.
There was a long silence.
The passage of time puts people's hearts to the test.
This time the young wife did not let him go, but hugged him even tighter.
Jiang Rao sighed softly, "Stupid, I never pushed you away, it was you who was always avoiding me."
He had been testing her these past few days, but every time he took a step closer, his wife would hide away.
She seemed to be resisting his closeness.
Jiang Rao gathered the hair on his wife's forehead and tucked it behind her ears. "Sister, stop pushing me out."
The scene he saw when he arrived at the banquet appeared in his mind again.
"Do you know how panicked I was when I rushed over and saw you sinking to the bottom of the water? I was afraid that I would be a step too late and wouldn't be able to save you..."
"When I jumped into the water, I had only one thought in my mind: if there was no way to save you, I would be willing to sink to the bottom of the water with you."
At that moment, the resentment in his body instantly became disordered, and he betrayed his master and released him, wanting to save his sweet master.
The man looked at her tenderly, holding her face, and expressed his fears one sentence after another.
Jiang Qing seemed to have the pause button pressed and didn't know how to react.
It seems like a dream.
I heard my brother say in person that he cared about her.
It took me a long time to react.
With a smile on his face, "Brother, I am so lucky..."
Not only is her horoscope compatible with her brother's, it can also help improve her brother's health.
I live a carefree life in the Jiang family without having to worry about food and clothing.
I secretly fell in love with my brother, but I knew I was not worthy of him, so I could only bury this dirty thought deep in my heart.
Too bad she can't act.
Every time she met her brother, her eyes would follow him unconsciously.
Over time, those rumors spread throughout the mansion.
Everyone in the mansion knew that she had such feelings for her brother.
It seemed like my brother was the only one who was kept in the dark.
She knew who had done it.
She never hid her thoughts in front of her grandmother.
Perhaps my grandmother felt that it was damaging the Jiang family's reputation, so she severely reprimanded the servants and forbade them to gossip behind their backs.
Madam Jiang's majesty remains.
No one will challenge it.
No one can control the servants from being yelled at unless it is said openly.
Her reputation was destroyed long ago by a few wanton rumors.
Blame her for being too obvious.
I even had a secret expectation in my heart that I might as well let my brother know.
Everyone knows it anyway.
This thought came to her mind until her brother looked at her with shocked, disgusted and disdainful eyes.
The mixed emotions in his gaze seemed to make one fall into an icy cave, so cold that one lost the ability to think...
