The Unavoidable Story of the Brother and the Rich Lady

Su Ze seemed to understand, "Don't tell me you also gave the middle finger to that beast? He's at mid-level Candle Realm."

"Why didn't you say that earlier?" Shen Qingsheng felt a chill down his spine.

"I thought you could sense the energy waves from its roar earlier," Su Ze shrugged.

"How could I sense anything! You deflected all its energy waves!" Shen Qingsheng roared.

"Ladies and gentlemen, dinner's ready!" Meng Xingyao knocked on the rock wall.

"Coming, Sister Xingyao." Su Ze walked over cheerfully.

"Here, have some." Zhi Xu picked up a piece of meat and held it out to Cang Yu.

Cang Yu shifted slightly and pointed at his own bowl, "You eat yours, I'll eat mine."

It was obvious he was sulking.

"Aw, is my baby angry?" Zhi Xu didn't force the issue and put the meat in Cang Yu's bowl instead. She sat down against the rock wall beside him and suddenly said, "I love you."

"..." Cang Yu was stunned for a moment, his cheeks suddenly turning red. "Why... why are you saying that all of a sudden?"

"Aww, my baby can still get shy." Zhi Xu asked with a smile, "Do you love me?"

"I..."

"Three, two, one..."

"Love you." Cang Yu answered reluctantly with a red face.

"I love you too." Just as Zhi Xu was about to pick up some meat from her bowl for her boyfriend, Cang Yu was faster and put the biggest piece from his bowl into hers.

"Eat more, you need to grow," Cang Yu didn't know what else to say, so he spoke like an elder would.

"I'm not growing anymore," Zhi Xu said as she put the meat in her mouth.

Everyone who had been eating quietly slowed down their pace.

Everyone: "..."

Su Ze picked up his bowl and walked towards the cave entrance, while Shen Qingsheng kept his head down, shoveling food into his mouth as he hurriedly followed.

"Baby, why does all this delicious food suddenly taste like dirt?" Xu Ziyin asked with a puzzled expression.

Gu Qingqing ate silently, and after hearing this, picked up the biggest piece of meat from her bowl and put it in Xu Ziyin's.

"Baby, I love you!" Xu Ziyin's face immediately lit up with joy.

Meng Xingyao picked up her bowl and walked towards the cave entrance.

In District Seven of Dust City.

A car stopped in front of Su Ze's villa, and a little shrine maiden with wine-red long hair hopped out.

She ran to the doorbell, then stopped her reckless behavior. With a serious and focused expression, she carefully pressed the doorbell.

Ding dong.

The doorbell rang.

A minute later, the little silly girl looked at the motionless door, furrowed her pretty brows, and pressed it again.

Then twice, three times, four times...

Then with a stubborn expression, she pressed it repeatedly: ding dong, ding dong, ding dong...

The crisp doorbell sounds kept ringing, drawing sideways glances from passersby.

Uesugi Chigenki got out of the car and hurriedly pulled back her sister who seemed to be in a trance.

The little girl pursed her lips and pointed at the doorbell, her face full of anger, as if saying 'This thing is defying me! How dare it defy me! How dare it!'

Uesugi Chigenki sighed inwardly, what a little fool blinded by love.

What to do now?

It seemed Su Ze wasn't home.

Although Uesugi Chigenki was naive, she wasn't stupid. At least she thought to take out her phone and find Su Ze's number from the information Haruna Sakura had given her, just as she was about to call.

Rustle rustle.

Sound came from the intercom beside the doorbell.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" A somewhat boyish voice, still changing, came through the intercom.

This was Su Yu, Su Ze's younger brother.

After Su Ze left, he had specifically asked Su Yu to watch the house, but Su Yu hadn't made it back yet. He received a surveillance alert in the car and opened the app to take a look.

That's when he saw the two sisters.

Shrine maidens from Japan? They're so beautiful. When did brother make such friends?

Uesugi Chigenki saw the surveillance camera on the wall and turned to the intercom, "We're Su Ze's friends. Is Su Ze home?"

"He's out and probably won't be back for a few days."

"Sorry to bother you." Uesugi Chigenki left, holding her sister's hand who kept looking back as they walked away.

In the car, Su Yu put his phone in his pocket.

Ji Ruxin, in the driver's seat, kept her eyes on the road but held out one hand, "Let me see your phone for a moment."

"But... you're driving, it's not safe," Su Yu hesitated.

"Give it to me," Ji Ruxin said again, her tone domineering and brooking no refusal.

Su Yu had no choice but to obediently hand over his phone.

Ji Ruxin unlocked the screen, looked at it for a while, then returned it to Su Yu, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Just as Su Yu was about to speak, Ji Ruxin continued, "There's a new restaurant in Phantom Prefecture, let's go there."

Su Yu timidly nodded.

Ji Ruxin held up two fingers in a V sign at him.

Su Yu was confused but also made a V sign.

"Hahaha..." Ji Ruxin burst out laughing, "Are you trying to be cute with me?"

"Of course, and you succeeded."

"But I want a cigarette! Cigarette!"

"Oh, oh, oh." Su Yu realized and took out a cigarette from the pack nearby and put it between Ji Ruxin's lips.

"..."

A moment later.

"Where's the light? Giving me a cigarette without a light, are you teasing me?"

Ji Ruxin was really amused by this silly boy.

Su Yu hurriedly found the lighter and lit it for her.

"You look just like your brother, but you're so different from him. He's so domineering, how did you end up so... timid?"

Su Yu naturally knew why their personalities were so different.

Su Ze had to protect his younger brother since childhood, so of course his personality became strong and domineering. Without such a personality, they wouldn't have survived until now.

Su Yu was the protected one, and under the halo of his brother becoming a Huaxia genius after unlocking his genetic lock at around fifteen, he appeared dim under his brother's wings.

His brother wasn't just protective wings, but also a mountain in his heart, an insurmountable mountain. Under such comparison, he became somewhat inferior.

So his personality tended towards timidity.

To avoid appearing weak in front of his brother, he tried hard to prove himself, but what could an ordinary person prove against someone with supernatural abilities?

He didn't want to always cower under his brother's wings, so he wanted independence, but he didn't have the ability.

So the result was that he became somewhat tsundere, too proud to accept his brother's kindness.

But helplessly accepting it anyway.

An hour later.

Su Yu looked at the familiar streets in surprise, "Weren't we going to Phantom Prefecture? Why are we... in Dust City?"

The sports car made a few turns and arrived in front of Su Ze's villa, "Didn't you say your brother wasn't home?"

She had heard their earlier conversation! Su Yu realized he had inadvertently revealed information that interested her.

Not far away in a residential building, Su Daqiang opened the curtains, and the flowing sunlight shone on his face as he looked down at a sports car in front of Su Ze's villa in the distance, quite surprised, "Is Su Ze back?"

"I remember he left on a motorcycle."
