Hua Yuezhi turned around and asked calmly:
"If you were to die on the battlefield one day, would you feel it was cruel?"
Tie Chao slowly exhaled the white smoke and swallowed it.
He certainly thought no.
If he dies on the battlefield, it will be a worthy death.
However, this commonplace fact was something he couldn't bear when it happened to his brothers.
Tie Chao tried to argue: "I'm afraid she'll do what she did back then and hurt you again!"
He would never forget the moment he mustered the courage to stand by his boss and help him get back on his feet.
But then he saw the eldest brother's sister push him to the ground and make him crawl forward from above.
This is outrageous!
If Hua Lihan hadn't returned, Tie Chao would almost have taken action.
Hua Yuezhi frowned for the first time, staring at him seriously: "I told you, you misunderstood, she didn't hurt me."
"She is my sister, and I will protect her."
After saying that, Hua Yuezhi went back to his room.
Tie Chao left, leaned against the wall, finished smoking a cigarette, and then went back to his room.
Hua Yuezhi didn't sleep. After a while, he changed into casual clothes and went up to the rooftop.
Hua Anning was already on the rooftop.
"Third Brother," Hua Anning greeted him.
"Ningning."
Hua Yuezhi sat down in the seat next to her.
And then... that was it.
He sat silently, without saying a word.
Hua Anning found it amusing.
She was the one who was invited out, but the person who invited her was waiting for her, the one who was invited, to take the initiative to speak.
Hua Yuezhi knew the meaning behind her laughter, but he only let out a muffled "hmm".
Hua Anning didn't hold back and directly brought up what she wanted to say: "I thought you really didn't know how to face Lele, so you let Tie Chao take care of protecting her."
Hua Yuezhi restarted his language module functionality:
"He's not suitable."
"You know that much." Hua Anning snorted coldly. "When I went to pick someone up today, Tie Chao gave me the cold shoulder."
Hua Yuezhi had just opened his mouth when Hua Anning interrupted him:
"Third Brother, don't tell me he misunderstood. He's just worried and confused. I don't care!"
I'm biased towards Lele. I can't stand it when Lele is wronged because of him, so I'll talk to him and complain to you!
What? What are you trying to say?
Hua Yuezhi: "..."
He remained silent for a long time before finally managing to utter a soft "hmm".
Hua Anning was so surprised by his reply that she laughed in anger:
"Your temper is really something! If Gu Yujing had responded to me like you even once, he would be living alone by now!"
Hua Yuezhi looked up in a daze: "You two got together?"
"..."
Hua Anning said speechlessly, "Third Brother, you don't pay any attention to this kind of thing at all?"
Hua Yuezhi thought for a moment and said earnestly, "Congratulations."
After thinking for a moment, he managed to squeeze out another auspicious phrase: "May you have a long and happy marriage."
Hua Anning: …………
She sighed numbly, "I'm speechless..."
"Sigh!" She rested her chin on her hand, gazing at him.
"Tell me, with your temper that's so cold and unyielding, how come Lele used to care about you so much? Huh?"
Hua Yuezhi's lips slowly curved into a slight smile: "Lele, that's great."
Hua Anning looked on with complete admiration: "Ah, yes, yes, yes, you're so good to me!"
Only she would have the patience to break down your shell and pull you out of your self-destructive personality! If it weren't for her…
Hua Anning snorted, her voice softening slightly: "I'm afraid you wouldn't be here today."
"Um."
Hua Yuezhi said, "It was Lele who helped me find the true meaning of protection and prevented me from being overwhelmed by the responsibility of my wild thoughts."
Hua Anning added, "It was also her who kicked you awake when you were at your lowest point!"
Hua Yuezhi smiled again.
He recalled the time Hua Changle kicked him off his wheelchair. That was truly the most beautiful time he had ever seen Lele.
Hua Anning smiled slightly: "So I told her, you deserve it."
Hua Yuezhi's expression changed: "Lele remembered everything?"
"No, but it seems that after being neglected by Tie Chao, I vaguely remember kicking you."
Hua Anning paused for a moment, then said, "Lele asked me... if she did something bad to you..."
Hua Yuezhi opened his mouth and slowly said:
“She is family too, but I failed to protect her.”
"I feel guilty towards her."
Hua Anning's eyes stung with tears, and she gave a self-deprecating laugh: "Who isn't?"
The night wind carried the cold, metallic scent of steel, but it could not dispel the melancholy in their hearts.
On the other hand, after entering the room arranged for her, Hua Changle was caught in a frantic dilemma.
She rolled around frantically on the big bed, crumpling the soft bedding.
Finally, the bedding became concave in the middle and slightly higher on three sides.
She nestled herself into the central recess, motionless, gazing at the warm-colored ceiling.
"You...are dead?"
Hua Changle remained motionless.
Okay, I understand.
【Beep beep ↗ beep ↘——】
The loud sound of the suona horn rang in his mind, and Hua Changle almost ascended to heaven on the spot.
"Have you finally gone mad?"
【Oh dear! My poor host... you left so suddenly~】
Hua Changle: "..."
"I'm craving spicy rabbit head."
I was wrong, I'm sorry.
422. He slid down and apologized.
[I called you but you ignored me! The way you looked just now was practically like you were dead!]
