"Yueyue, the dress you bought for me online is so pretty, and it's cheap and durable too."
Chen Xia smiled and pulled the young girl, who was wearing the same blue denim skirt as her, to talk.
"Aunt Chen, I'm glad you like it."
The girl called Yueyue smiled and raised her head. Her small face, no bigger than a palm, was so exquisite and bright that it was impossible to look away, even more dazzling than the March sun.
Even the young reporter who was conducting an interview nearby couldn't help but look over.
The girl looked to be in her early twenties, with two loose braids and her hair was black and shiny, like the finest silk.
Her skin was very fair, making her stand out among the dark-skinned fishermen around her.
Both women wore the same simple, fitted denim maxi skirt, but the woman next to her looked like she was wearing a customer's photo. However, because of her slender figure, every cut of the skirt perfectly accentuated her strengths, making her look like she was wearing a high-end designer brand. Even the seller's photo probably couldn't compare to her.
Qin Yizhou never expected to meet such a beautiful person while conducting an interview in such a remote place. She was even more beautiful than his favorite popular actress, Du Qingyan.
During a break in the interview, he subconsciously moved closer, and just as he was about to speak, a cold male voice suddenly came from behind him: "What do you want to do?"
Qin Yizhou turned around in response and saw a tall young man walking towards him.
He was very tall, but rather thin, with a pale, bloodless white skin. He had striking features, but his eyes were dark and unfathomable, giving off a sinister feeling when he looked at people.
Before he could react, the man strode up to him, lowered his eyes slightly to meet his gaze, and said, word by word, "Stay away from her, or I'll kill you."
After saying that, she didn't give him another second glance and walked quickly past him toward the girl named Yueyue.
"Sister, look what I brought back for you!"
He looked at Qi Yue with a gentle smile, his eyes seemingly shining, a stark contrast to the gloomy man from before.
Qin Yizhou stared at the scene in shock, momentarily stunned, until someone quietly tugged at his sleeve—it was Aunt Chen from earlier.
"Don't mind him, Xiaoyu has always been very protective of his sister. The two siblings depend on each other for survival. Yueyue is also exceptionally beautiful, and many young men in the village like her. So Xiaoyu doesn't give a friendly look to anyone who tries to talk to Yueyue. Actually, he has a very kind heart."
So they were siblings. Qin Yizhou breathed a long sigh of relief.
Judging from the man's nervous demeanor and even his threats, he had assumed the two were in that kind of relationship.
Knowing that the interview would take several days, Qin Yizhou secretly planned to find a local to show him more about the local customs and culture. Hmm, this Ms. Qi was a great choice.
He can pay her to be their guide then.
Thinking this, his gaze involuntarily followed that charming figure, only to suddenly meet a pair of extremely cold and indifferent eyes.
Qin Yizhou was startled and quickly looked away; the man's eyes were terrifying.
At this moment, the photographer called him, and Qin Yizhou quickly tidied his hair and continued the interview.
On the other side, Qi Yu was carrying things in one hand, and naturally reached out with the other hand to take Qi Yue's hand and go back.
Just as their fingers were about to touch, Qi Yue reflexively pulled her hand back.
"elder sister?"
Qi Yu looked at her with a puzzled expression, her face showing some grievance.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoyu, I don't know why my hand won't obey me."
Qi Yue lowered her eyes, her slender, thick eyelashes casting faint shadows under her eyelids, making her look like a child who had made a mistake and was waiting for her parents to punish her.
"It's okay, sister, we'll take it slow."
A cold glint flashed in Qi Yu's dark eyes, but she quickly regained her usual gentleness and continued with a smile, "Sister, how about I make you garlic shrimp tonight? The shrimp are all very big today."
Upon hearing about garlic shrimp, Qi Yue's delicate face lit up with joy, and she immediately nodded vigorously: "That's great!"
To be honest, she was born without any talent for cooking, despite being the older sister.
The first time she cooked, she almost burned the house down. From then on, Qi Yu wouldn't let her into the kitchen. He would only cook after he returned from fishing with the villagers.
The two are siblings, but most of the time it is Qi Yu, the younger brother, who takes meticulous care of her.
As darkness fell, Qi Yue sat expectantly at the table under the warm, yellowish light.
The table was a second-hand table that Qi Yu bought in a town outside the town. It was made of solid wood and, although it was a bit old, it was very sturdy.
There were only two chairs in the house, and one of them had a broken leg, so Qi Yu reinforced it with a wooden board. He sat on the broken one and let Qi Yue sit on the good one.
Qi Yue sat quietly in her perfectly good chair, holding a water glass in her hand and gazing longingly at the kitchen doorway.
Soon, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen, and Qi Yue's stomach immediately growled.
She took a big gulp of water from her glass, and seeing Qi Yu still busy in the kitchen, she picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
On television, the host is interviewing a young man.
This was the first time Gu Baiwei had ever seen such a handsome man, and her gaze was immediately drawn to him.
The man wore dark gray suit trousers and a white shirt. The well-tailored fabric perfectly outlined his good physique, and the outline of his eight-pack abs could be faintly seen through the shape of the shirt.
You have a great figure!
Gu Baiwei sighed inwardly, her gaze shifting upwards to the man's exquisite and handsome face.
The man had delicate and well-defined features, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on his nose. His hair was pulled back, and his long, narrow eyes seemed to be able to see right through a television screen.
The moment Qi Yue met those eyes, her heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
Just then, Qi Yu came out with her food. When she saw what was on TV, her face instantly turned cold, and her aura quickly turned icy. She looked at Qi Yu with a gloomy gaze.
Qi Yue, completely oblivious to his unusual behavior, smiled and pointed at the handsome man on the TV, saying, "Xiao Yu, what do you think of this man? Doesn't he look like your future brother-in-law?"
After jokingly saying something, Qi Yue looked up and met Qi Yu's dark eyes. Startled by that gaze, Qi Yue felt a chill run down her spine: "Xiao...Xiao Yu, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, sister. It's time to eat. Don't watch TV anymore, or you'll get indigestion."
Qi Yu walked over with a smile, placed the garlic shrimp and vermicelli scallops on the table, and as she stood up, she reached for the remote control next to her and turned off the TV.
Qi Yue pouted, somewhat displeased, and said, "Okay."
Qi Yu then brought out a plate of vegetables and two bowls of soup from the kitchen before sitting down at the table. She asked her casually, "Sister, do you know that man on TV?"
