"Thank you. It's so good to have you as a friend. I didn't have many friends before, except for my younger brother. My brother also advised me to make more friends, so I thought I'd come and find you."
This was the first time Yu Qianluo had ever seen Nan Lichuan so heartbroken; indeed, his thoughts were a little ridiculous.
It turns out that he had misunderstood the other person's meaning, thinking that the other person cared about him.
But it's alright, this kind of relationship is enough, it's better than being strangers.
Yu Qianluo was sitting not far from the audience area, so when they were talking, others could only see their backs. Yu Qianluo pursed her lips and made her demands even more excessive.
"May I make a request of you?"
"What is it?"
"Can you kiss me, just for a moment?"
Nan Lichuan looked up and stared at the boy for a long time without saying a word.
"You know me, I'm not the person you're looking for. Maybe there's someone better..."
Before he could finish speaking, the boy chuckled and said that the man had misunderstood. Even if he liked him, it was just liking. He wouldn't force someone if they didn't want to.
"It was just a simple kiss, Nan, don't get the wrong idea. Or do you really have feelings for me, Nan? Hehe."
His casual tone made it impossible for Nan Lichuan to discern anything, but he knew he was being pretentious.
"sure."
Nan Lichuan, supporting Yu Qianluo's shoulder, slowly approached him, stood up, gently placed a light kiss on his forehead, smiled, and then left his sight.
"Thank you for your hospitality. I'll come often in the future, my friend."
Yu Qianlu touched her forehead where she had been kissed, a blush creeping onto her face. Yes, "friend" was indeed the best excuse. It was good for everyone, wasn't it?
This trip wasn't so simple. Nan Lichuan wasn't there to find Yu Qianluo to do this kind of thing; he wanted to see where Lin Xiao's mood really was.
Getting his younger brother to understand his own heart is indeed a bit difficult, but it's still possible.
Lin Xiao was sitting on the bed, struggling desperately, clinging to a pitiful sliver of hope. Although he liked his brother, he didn't like how his brother treated him.
He really hates it that it's done this way!
He knows perfectly well that he hates being treated like this, yet he still does it. Humph, don't expect him to pay any attention to him later.
However, even if you don't want to pay attention, your heart is still moved by him, and you can't ignore him.
Just as they were about to successfully rub off the annoying rope, the door was suddenly opened.
The person who came into view was someone he knew all too well. He was startled; how could they be back so quickly?
"Huh? Brother, why are you back?"
Nan Lichuan glanced at Lin Xiao's hand movements, then lowered his eyes sadly. Did he really dislike being with him that much?
He doesn't even like this kind of time. Is that person really worth liking?
"Nothing, I'm just out taking care of some things. But my dear brother, what are you doing with your hands? Hmm?"
He knew Lin Xiao would definitely be unable to hold back, and he wasn't in a hurry to find an opportunity. He had plenty of time to let Lin Xiao realize his own feelings.
He leaned down, pulled the boy close, and hugged him. "My dear brother, shouldn't you give me a good explanation?"
Lin Xiao felt a little uncomfortable being hugged and tried to struggle, but while twisting, she accidentally bumped into her brother's chest.
A pungent smell attracted him, but it made him feel very uncomfortable; he didn't like it.
He disliked it so much that he wanted to escape this embrace, because there was someone else's scent there, not his. Why wasn't it his? Had his brother gone out to find someone else?
"Brother, you're hugging me so tight, I can't breathe, can you let go first..."
"No, I'm really sad today and I want someone to comfort me. Can't you even do that, little brother?"
Nan Lichuan looked at Lin Xiao with a disappointed expression for a while, betting that Lin Xiao would feel sorry for him.
Although the idea is naive, as long as it works, that's fine, right?
Nan Lichuan instinctively pulled him into his arms, but Lin Xiao turned his head away. The scent emanating from him bothered him. If, if he had to choose, then brother…
Lin Xiao was extremely frustrated with herself. She clearly hated that her brother smelled of someone else, but she had to pretend that she didn't know.
No, no, this feeling is driving him crazy.
"Brother, even if I can comfort you, could you please get rid of that smell?"
Lin Xiao stammered out his frustrated words.
Nan Lichuan held Lin Xiao's hand tightly for a moment out of satisfaction, then released him.
"Okay, brother will go wash up. Xiao, can you wait here for me for a while, okay?"
Their relationship was actually quite simple and easy, so it wasn't impossible for Lin Xiao not to be angry again because of Nan Lichuan's actions. She was just being stubborn.
"Hmph, whatever you want, do as you please, why ask me!"
Nan Lichuan followed Lin Xiao's instructions and took a shower before coming out. He saw the boy sleeping on the bed, unsure whether he was truly asleep or just pretending. He had curled up completely.
He slowly approached the boy, touched the hair on the boy's forehead, and swept it across his face. "Xiao, I'm all done now. There's no smell anymore. It's your turn to take a shower."
Lin Xiao ignored him and instead swept his brother's hand to express his dissatisfaction, but the smell on his body caught his attention. Hmm? Is that all?
That's more like it; that taste was really unpleasant.
Lin Xiao sighed in distress, "Brother, why are you doing this to me? Didn't you always hate me? Why are you still..."
As Lin Xiao spoke, tears streamed down his face, a heartbreaking sight. Nan Lichuan couldn't bear to see the little guy cry, especially since he was the one who had made him cry.
"Why do you say that? When did your brother stop liking you? Don't overthink it."
He touched Lin Xiao's hair, trying to explain that he hadn't done anything to upset him, because he had been thinking for a while and didn't think he had done anything to upset him recently.
unless…
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. It seems her brother has remembered. Not only women, but there might also be boys vying for her brother's affections. Enough already!
"My brother is so charming. Not only do girls like him, but other boys might also like him. He just can't accept my feelings."
"Xiao, you've got it wrong. I haven't fallen for that woman. I love you, and it's always been you."
[Ding! The romanceable character Nan Lichuan has gained 70 points in favorability.]
The sudden surge of goodwill made Lin Xiao even more certain.
His brother was explaining himself so excitedly, which was unlike his usual self. But he was happy because it turned out his brother still cared about him.
