Chapter 5 Apology
Qi Lang was caught off guard and staggered back two steps by his punch before he managed to steady himself.
"Yan Yi, you are sick!"
Yan Yi grabbed Qi Lang's neck, pressed him against the wall, and punched him in the face again and again.
Qi Lang was not the kind of person who would allow himself to be bullied. After he realized what was happening, he grabbed Yan Yi's wrist, raised his leg and kicked him out.
The young man rushed over like a mad dog, his eyes bloodshot, and he bit him hard as if to tear him into pieces.
Qi Lang swiftly turned sideways, counterattacked him, and pinned him down: "What a lunatic! You're just hitting me right away. I didn't ask you to play a game, is that necessary?"
"How dare you bully Bai He!"
"When did I bully her? This isn't a fight!"
The two people's conversation was completely on different channels. Bai He heard the sound of fighting outside and guessed that the two must have started fighting again.
But the game in hand has not ended yet. If I stop now, I will probably have to start over.
So she patiently continued to play.
Anyway, the fight between Qi Lang and Yan Yi... has been going on since they were young, as long as no one gets killed.
Finally, after successfully passing the level, Bai He breathed a sigh of relief, threw down the controller and ran out——
"Stop it! Stop hitting me!"
Qi Lang and Yan Yi had stopped fighting long ago and were facing each other like enemies, breathing heavily.
Yan Yi saw Bai He and rushed over. He held her face and asked worriedly, "Have you been bullied?"
"Bully, who bullied me?"
Seeing him like this, Qi Lang reacted belatedly.
He and Bai He were still here in Macabaka, but the underage Yan Yi rushed onto the highway first.
Qi Lang pulled Yan Yi's hand away, pushed him, and pulled Bai He to stand behind him: "Xiao Baihe and I are playing video games, what are you thinking about?"
"Just playing games?" Yan Yi frowned, not quite believing it.
"Why don't you go up and take a look yourself?"
Seeing is believing. Yan Yi took three or two steps up the stairs and saw a game console with a handle and motion sensor on the carpet, and a fruit and candy plate next to it.
However, Yan Yi has always been a meticulous thinker. He walked around the room, casually opened the drawer of Qi Lang's bedside cabinet, took out an unopened box of Durex, and threw it at Qi Lang's feet when he entered the room.
"What's this?"
Qi Lang looked at the box, then at the angry Yan Yi, with a meaningful look in his eyes: "What is this? How could you not recognize it?"
"Who are you going to use it on?" Yan Yi's eyes twitched.
Bai He came out from behind Qi Lang, picked up the Durex on the ground and looked at it, then looked at Qi Lang curiously: "Isn't this the box I bought yesterday?"
Qi Lang laughed jokingly: "I don't want to dirty the sheets when I do it myself, okay? It's so troublesome to clean up."
“…”
Bai He looked at Yan Yi again.
Yan Yi was a little embarrassed and had nothing to say.
As a man with the same obsession with cleanliness, he knew that cleaning up was really troublesome.
"The case is solved now." Bai He acted like an older sister and said seriously, "Ayi, you hit Qi Lang, do you want to apologize?"
Yan Yi pursed his lips tightly, and veins popped on his forehead.
Qi Lang smiled contemptuously.
Yan Yi felt that he was not wrong and that at most he was overreacting.
But... these things can't happen without a doubt, so it's always better to be more prepared.
"Ayi." Bai He's expression became even more severe. "Apologize to Qi Lang."
Qi Lang wiped the scratched skin from the corner of his mouth and sat down leisurely on the sofa. "Little Lily, my brother didn't mean it. Don't blame him. He's just a brat, so it's normal for him to be impulsive. When I was his age, I also..."
"You're only one fucking year older than me!" Yan Yi couldn't stand his gossiping and interrupted him angrily.
"Ayi!" Bai He was really angry. "Who the hell are you talking to! You don't swear at home, why are you swearing outside? Are you like this at school too?"
When she got angry, Yan Yi chose to slide down and kneel: "I'm sorry, Bai He."
"I'm your sister."
Yan Yi pursed her lips and refused to call out "sister" no matter what.
Qi Lang could see through the boy's obsessive thoughts. He sat leisurely on the chair and added fuel to the fire at the right time: "Little Lily, have you heard the saying, if you don't call me sister when you are younger, you are a little wild."
Yan Yi was furious at this and rushed over to hit him. Bai He stood in front of him and said angrily, "Yan Yi, you've gone crazy today, and you want to beat me up too!"
Yan Yi stopped immediately, and the mad wolfdog instantly turned into a well-behaved little puppy: "I, didn't."
"If you don't acknowledge me as your sister and don't apologize, please leave now."
Bai He felt that he had to correct this guy's strange habits, otherwise, if he went to college with this temper, he would offend countless people.
Yan Yi was younger than Bai He, had lost his parents, and lived with others in her home. Yan's father had died saving her, and Bai He had always felt a strong sense of responsibility and obligation towards Yan Yi.
She must let him grow up well, protect him for the rest of his life, and see him happy with her own eyes, so as to repay Yan's father for saving her life.
Yan Yi didn't want to make her angry further. When resentment accumulates to a certain level, it will turn into annoyance.
He couldn't let Bai He dislike him.
"I'm sorry." He cut out these three words with his tongue like a knife, feeling unwilling.
"Are you talking to me or to Qi Lang?" She insisted.
Yan Yi looked up at the lazy boy sitting on the chair: "Qi Lang, I'm sorry, I was impulsive."
Qi Lang tilted his head and smiled triumphantly: "It doesn't matter, I'm your brother after all."
He emphasized the last word.
In short, this game definitely couldn't be played today. Bai He went to the bathroom to clean up and walked out of the villa with Yan Yi.
On the gravel road, Bai He walked in front and Yan Yi followed behind.
The sun went into the clouds and there was a gentle breeze.
Yan Yi walked behind her gloomily, with a lot on his mind. Bai He stopped and he almost bumped into her, so he quickly braked.
She pulled him under the sedge tree and said gently, "Are you still angry?"
"No."
"You're just angry. I asked you to apologize to Qi Lang, and you felt embarrassed, didn't you?"
Yan Yi remained silent.
He wasn't embarrassed, he was...
Qi Lang is a playboy, so why can she be so content to play games with him in a room behind closed doors?
She trusted him so much that she wasn't afraid of him doing anything wrong.
Or... does she really hope that he will mess around?
Yan Yi really couldn't think any further. It felt like there was a poisonous snake lurking in his heart, spitting out its tongue.
"Qi Lang is an outsider, and we are family." Bai He said to him naggingly, "It doesn't matter what happens in private, but Yan Yi, you can't be so rude to outsiders. If you continue to be like this when you go to college and enter society in the future, you will definitely suffer greatly. Sister doesn't want to see you suffer!"
In fact, Yan Yi has been living under someone else's roof for many years, and his mental age is more mature than hers, perhaps even more mature than Qi Lang.
He just liked to act ignorant in front of her, that's all.
Bai He has a certain inexplicable sense of responsibility towards him, and Yan Yi wants to take advantage of this sense of responsibility to make her worry about him.
He said, "What you mean by this is that our relationship is closer than the relationship between you and Qi Lang?"
"What are you thinking? Of course!" Bai He said without hesitation, "He and I are friends; you and I are family. How can we be the same?"
This sentence completely vented Yan Yi's resentment in his heart.
Yes, in Bai He's heart, he is family.
She would not let anyone see the scar on her neck and would cover it up tightly wherever she went. Even Qi Lang was not allowed to see it.
But she could take off the black silk scarf around her neck without restraint in front of him.
So what if she has a good relationship with Qi Lang? Between him and Bai He... Qi Lang can't get involved.
Yan Yi felt relieved. He walked over, carefully took Bai He's hand, and stroked the little crescent on her fingernail.
Bai He smelled the boy's scent, which was completely different from Qi Lang's fresh lemon scent. Yan Yi was very sweet, like White Rabbit milk candy.
Maybe it was the sweet scent of the same laundry beads they used at home, and she should have it too.
A very warm taste, the taste of home.
However, he has grown up now, and is over 1.85 meters tall. He may still grow taller because he is not yet an adult.
It wasn't appropriate to hold hands like this, so Bai He pulled his hand back.
Yan Yi held her stubbornly, tightly gripping her in his palm and refusing to let go.
She had no choice but to let him go.
A gust of wind blew by, and the phoenix flowers on the roadside fell to the ground.
Seeing him transformed back into a big dog, Bai He smiled and stood on tiptoe to touch his head: "Your temper is still like that of a child. You were stubborn when you were a child, just like the bull terrier raised by the uncle next door, who would bite and never let go."
"I'm not a child anymore." Yan Yi said seriously, "I'm grown up."
"Even when he grew up, he still fought with Qi Lang."
"I thought he was bullying you because you were gone for two hours and didn't reply to my messages."
"I'm playing games." Bai He said helplessly, "So your mind is full of nonsense all day long. Are you secretly watching porn behind my back?"
Yan Yi's face turned red instantly.
But he didn't lie in front of Bai He, so he didn't deny it and nodded.
"Ha, as expected! You bad boy." Bai He put his hand on his back and said, "Tell me, will you dare to do it again next time?"
Yan Yi also smiled, pretending that he couldn't break free from her: "I don't dare anymore."
"That's so straightforward."
"I won't watch it behind your back next time. Let's watch it together, sister?"
Every time he does something bad, he will call me sister in a teasing tone.
Really, everyone, including his parents, thought that Yan Yi was an honest and simple boy, but Bai He knew that when this guy got bad, he was even worse than Qi Lang!
She was so angry that her face turned red and she chased him all the way.
Yan Yi dodged with a smile, but Bai He refused to give in. He let her crash into his arms, and the two of them hugged each other and fell on the wet grass.
By the window, Qi Lang watched them chasing and playing from afar for a long time.
