Chapter 111: Junior Sister’s Brother Is Not Called Ye Qing
Xiao Chujing grabbed Ye Xiaoman's arm and said, "You just came back from the Immortal Ruins at noon, why are you rushing out again?"
Ye Xiaoman said righteously: "The shop renovation is almost finished, I have to go and keep an eye on the project."
Xiao Chujing: "I'll go with you."
Sikong Qing immediately said, "I'll go too."
How could she be affectionate with Jiaying when the two of them were following her?
Jiaying was so excited when he saw them that he wanted to dance in front of them to show his love.
Ye Xiaoman quickly refused: "It's just a small matter, I can go alone."
The fish in the pond cannot be left too idle, as they will start to think about all sorts of things if they are idle.
Ye Xiaoman assigned them tasks.
"Brother, please help me move."
Sikong Qing was very pleased with her look of complete trust and agreed immediately, "Yes."
"Brother Xiao, you often take care of the spiritual garden. I can only feel at ease if I leave the transplanting of the spiritual herbs in my field to you."
Xiao Chujing's discovery of the spiritual herb was Ye Xiaoman's lifeblood. She entrusted the most important matter to him, and he felt comfortable and relaxed. "No problem."
"See you in two days~" Ye Xiaoman flew away at the speed of light on her sword. When she said the last word "see you", only the lingering sound remained, and she had already disappeared without a trace.
Sikong Qing chased out the door unwillingly.
Xiao Chujing stood still.
The old ghost emerged from his palm, and the thin ghost shadow was blown away and gathered again by the wind.
Xiao Chujing clenched his fist silently, "Teacher, I feel that Junior Sister is not as attentive to me as before."
He was unwilling to admit that Ye Xiaoman's attitude towards him was no longer warm after she got the marrow cleansing grass. He just regarded it as the return of the peaceful and long-lasting life of an old couple after the passion faded.
The old ghost asked in surprise, "Has she ever been interested in you?"
Xiao Chujing pursed his lips tightly: "Has she lost interest in me?"
Lao Gui was a bystander and could not bear to see him continue to do stupid things.
"Silly boy, let me ask you, is she usually so distant towards you? When you ask her to make your relationship public, she hesitates. When you ask her to meet you alone, she always refuses. If she takes the initiative to contact you, she must have something to ask of you."
Xiao Chujing: "That's true."
Old Ghost: "You think you and she are a match made in heaven, but she doesn't even want you to hold her hand?"
Xiao Chujing was dissatisfied: "It's normal for girls to be reserved."
Lao Gui: “You just need to answer yes or no.”
Xiao Chujing: "That's true."
Lao Gui: "She often disappears inexplicably, and comes back with a cheerful face?"
Xiao Chujing: "That's true."
The old ghost blew out a string of cold air from his nostrils and said with finality: "She has someone outside!"
Xiao Chujing subconsciously denied: "Impossible."
Old Ghost: "Haha, you sound very unconfident. Let me ask you, would you choose to believe me, who possesses the wisdom of a hundred generations, or that scumbag?"
Xiao Chujing glanced at him as if he were a fool, "Of course I believe in Junior Sister."
The old ghost's remaining soul was almost shattered by his anger.
Sikong Qing came back depressed, and Xiao Chujing took the old ghost back unhappily.
He didn't catch up with Ye Xiaoman.
Her newly acquired nameless sword carried her running faster than the wind. It seemed that the sword spirit had put all its skill points into running.
Xiao Chujing asked, "Did Junior Sister really go to the Immortal Ruins?"
Sikong Qing was annoyed: "How should I know?"
The two of them were like two disfavored husbands in the backyard, disgusted with each other and had lost interest in pulling each other's hair.
Men's sixth sense tells them that they are being cheated on, but they have no evidence.
"elder brother."
"Hello."
They both spoke at the same time.
Sikong Qing fanned himself with the sleeves of his red gown and anxiously walked half a circle around the courtyard. "Speak."
Xiao Chujing coughed lightly and said, "The black market is full of mixed people. I'm worried about the safety of my junior sister. Why don't we take turns protecting her?"
He paused for a moment, "Junior Sister doesn't like being pestered by others, so we just follow her outside secretly."
The men's eyes met in mid-air. Both of them were smart men and knew each other's unexpressed intentions.
Sikong Qing: "That's great."
Xiao Chujing: "Today I'm helping my junior sister move."
Sikong Qing: "Tomorrow I will take care of the spiritual herbs, and you will keep an eye on them."
Xiao Chujing smiled and said, "It's not surveillance, it's secret protection."
Sikong Qing sneered disdainfully, and the red shadow teleported and disappeared.
Following Ye Xiaoman's direction.
Xiao Chujing reached a cooperation agreement with Sikong Qing in just a few words, and after playing his tricks, he felt a little relieved.
He touched the trunk of the osmanthus tree in the yard, preparing to help Ye Xiaoman trim the branches and leaves first.
Just shape it into the shape of a heart.
"Junior Brother Xiao."
Xiao Chujing saw the person coming and saluted with a smile, "Senior Brother Lu."
"Did your mission to Ji County go smoothly?"
Senior Brother Lu sat on the chair and gulped down half a bowl of tea.
"I came to you precisely for this matter. We were going to take part in the three-year assessment a while ago, and I was afraid it would affect your mood for the exam, so I kept it from you."
When Senior Brother Lu went to Ye Xiaoman's hometown to carry out a mission, Xiao Chujing always suspected that Sikong Qing and Ye Xiaoman were not like biological siblings, and secretly asked him to investigate "Ye Qing" on his behalf.
Senior Brother Lu's face was full of sympathy, "Junior Brother Xiao, I think you've been deceived."
He took out a portrait from his arms. It showed a young man who looked somewhat similar to Ye Xiaoman.
"I went to my junior sister's hometown to inquire about it. Her brother's name is not Ye Qing, but Ye Ziqi."
"Junior sister's father was indeed a gambler. When he went out to avoid debt, he took Ye Ziqi with him, leaving Junior sister and her mother to depend on each other."
"When Ye Ziqi was taken away, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old. Here's his portrait. I asked my neighbor to draw it. Boys change a lot when they grow up. I don't know what he looks like now."
"But no matter what," Senior Brother Lu recalled Sikong Qing's enchanting beauty, "she doesn't look like Ye Qing."
Xiao Chujing stared at the portrait in silence, without a trace of smile on his face.
He had doubts, but when the truth was right before his eyes, his mind exploded like a sky full of talismans, and his heart plummeted as if falling into an icy cave.
The scene of Ye Xiaoman lying in bed with Si Kongqing in disheveled clothes appeared in his mind involuntarily. They were talking in his presence, but when he turned around, she told him without blinking:
——This is my brother.
Whenever that happened, "Ye Qing" would smile in an ambiguous way, and with a seductive look, she would emphasize, "Yes, we are the best brother and sister."
It turns out that a beloved brother is also called brother.
When she and others teamed up to make fun of him, did they think he was so stupid and funny?
Even when the hero had no expression on his face, his aura was still quite scary. Senior Brother Lu pulled the bottom of the chair and quietly moved away from him.
Ye Xiaoman's image as an honest person is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and Senior Brother Lu tends to believe that she is also a victim.
"Junior sister is simple-minded, maybe she has been deceived."
Xiao Chujing said coldly: "Do you think it's possible?"
Senior Brother Lu stopped talking.
Even my own brother admitted his mistake. Who would believe it if I told others about it?
