Chapter 81, Heart-to-Heart Talk
When Lee Dong-seok returned to his room after showering, Lee Dong-ho was sitting on the bed looking at his phone. Lee Dong-seok closed the door, glanced at the makeshift bed on the floor, and haphazardly wiped his hair, asking, "Didn't we agree to share a bed? Why is half of it on the floor?"
Lee Dong-ho finally turned his gaze to him and said without any mercy, "I'm not used to sleeping with other people."
"Do you think I'm used to sleeping with other people?" Lee Dong-seok walked around the cot and sat down on the bed, saying seriously, "But if I don't sleep with you, I have to sleep with Jang Yo-yo. You choose!"
Li Donghao's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Lee Dong-seok said smugly, "I guessed it!"
Lee Dong-seok subconsciously reached for the blanket, but his brother blocked him. Lee Dong-seok nodded helplessly, turned around and picked up the blanket and pillow from the floor to cover himself.
"If you like her, why don't you say so? Are you afraid she'll dislike you?" After wiping his face with a towel, Li Dongshuo continued, "Actually, Zhang Youyou is quite easy to please. Just go along with her a bit."
"She has someone she likes," Lee Dong-ho said dejectedly.
Lee Dong-seok was about to pull the blanket up when he heard this and froze.
"What?"
"Keep your voice down!" Lee Dong-ho reminded him. Lee Dong-seok covered his mouth, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity.
"Who is so charming that Zhang Youyou is moved? Wait a minute, she's only been here for a few months. Has she even met everyone yet? Are you misunderstanding something?" Li Dongshuo knew Zhang Youyou's character better than anyone. It would be harder than climbing to heaven for her to be moved. Otherwise, why wasn't she moved by the two brothers after knowing them for so long and having so many people who liked them?
"She's giving me the cold shoulder now because of that person." Li Donghao placed his phone on the bedside table in frustration, then slid down and lay down with his back to him.
Lee Dong-seok was completely stunned. Zhang Youyou was actually giving his brother the cold shoulder for another man. She was getting bolder and bolder.
Lee Dong-seok squeezed the towel, took it off, thought for a moment, and said, "How about I go and talk to her?"
Lee Dong-ho turned around and looked at him curiously.
"We grew up together, so we can still talk to each other."
"What should we say to her? Tell her not to be with that man, or to be nicer to me? Dongshuo, Zhang Youyou is a person, she has her own thoughts, and this is not something we can decide. If she really doesn't want to marry into our family, we can't force her."
“How do you know it won’t work if you don’t try? Are all those years of protection for nothing?” Li Dongshuo looked at his brother in disbelief. “Don’t tell me you didn’t send her to F University for your own selfish reasons.”
"I just wanted to take better care of her."
"That settles it. In the end, you still feel sorry for her. If you do, let her know. You're already in your mid-twenties, why are you still having this secret crush thing?" With that, Li Dongshuo rolled off the bed, ready to leave, but then suddenly remembered something, turned around, patted his shoulder, and said very seriously, "Don't worry, I'm on your side!"
When Lee Dong-seok walked out of the bedroom, the living room light was still on. He could faintly hear rustling sounds in the light. Lee Dong-seok went over and saw Zhang Youyou standing in front of the refrigerator taking something out. Lee Dong-seok leaned against the door frame curiously and asked her what she was doing.
Startled by the sudden sound, Zhang Youyou dropped what she was holding, the lid and box separated, and pink stuff spilled out. Zhang Youyou immediately became furious.
"What are you doing? Why are you out here in the middle of the night scaring people instead of sleeping?" Zhang Youyou squatted down with heartache, picked up the ice cream that was already broken into pieces, and reluctantly put it in the trash can.
"I was about to ask you the same thing! Why are you out here rummaging through the fridge in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" After glancing at the ice cream she had put in the trash can, Lee Dong-seok walked over and asked curiously, "How did you know there was ice cream in my brother's fridge?"
