Chapter 78 of Volume 3: Signed the contract

  Looking at my little brother's face turning more and more ugly, I tactfully said: "Uh, Zhen! I have class now, I'll come find you after school! You go back first!"

  He didn't even look at me, his eyes were still fixed on Lan Feng, as if he wanted to kill her with his gaze. I swallowed hard: "Then I'll leave first." After finishing speaking, I slipped away quietly.

  I ran for a long time before I finally stopped to catch my breath.

  At this time Carlos saw me and anxiously ran over to say: "Han, where did you go yesterday? We were worried to death!" After finishing speaking, he immediately hugged me in his arms.

  I lay quietly in his arms, with a faint lavender scent in his chest, making me nostalgic and yet unfamiliar. Nostalgic for the lavender scent that Night's body emitted at night, unfamiliar because it was not Night's body scent, even if it was lavender, it was still different.

  "What's wrong?" Carlos asked with a bit of concern as he felt me remain completely still.

  I broke free from his embrace and looked at him faintly saying: "Your body smells like lavender on a summer night."

  "It's cold, forget it. You're my sister, aren't you? Then you have to listen to your brother and be strong." Carlos said with a serious face.

  I nodded: "I know, I will learn to be strong, and learn to forget him."

  "Moreover, Xuan has also changed a lot for you and made many sacrifices. Although I've known him for a long time, I've never seen his expression so natural before. I asked him why, and he said it's because of you." Carlos said to me, and I could see the concern on his face too.

  "Don't worry, I'll try to accept him." I said seriously. I thought: since the night no longer belongs to me, why should I insist on it? Sometimes being with the one who loves me might be happier than being with the one I love.

  Carlos nodded in satisfaction: "Go back to class! However, as I said before, be careful with Ye Lu, she's a very cunning person."

  "Got it, bro~~~~" I deliberately prolonged the tone.

  He smiled and gently patted my head: "Go to class! I've asked for a leave of absence for Xue Er today, he's going to take care of Xue Er. Xue Er is awake too, you can go see her after school!"

  I nodded and walked towards the classroom. The first thing I did when I arrived was to call Xue Er to see if they were okay: "Ring... ring... ring..."

  "Hey! Han, how are you? I've already heard from Xue'er." Xue'er said anxiously.

  "I'm fine, it's you who should be careful next time!" I complained.

  "Alright, as long as you're fine, that's all that matters. If something's wrong, you must tell me. I'm your best sister, and you can't keep things from me and suffer alone." Xue Er warned.

  "Alright, alright, don't nag me anymore," I said jokingly, trying to make it seem like I was happy, but only I knew how much pain I was in. Physical wounds aren't something that can heal overnight, let alone the ones in my heart. But I believe time will be the best medicine.

  "You dare to say that! I won't bother with you anymore! But I also want to tell you a good news: That is, I met Carlos and we talked it out. The person I love is Xuan, and I hope he can discuss the divorce with me! And he told me he likes Xue Er, hoping we can help him!" Xue Er said excitedly.

  "Of course I'll help!" I said happily too.

  Xue Er said in a somewhat unbelievable tone: "You wouldn't be one of those people who really dislike the 'Cold' faction, would you? You didn't switch sides because of Ye's betrayal, did you?"

  "What are you talking about? I'm not going to talk to you anymore, I have class. I'll tell you when I get back to the dorm after class!" Then she hung up the phone.

  Leng Xuan looked at me after I finally finished the phone call and walked over to say: "Baby, who were you talking to on the phone?"

  "Ah?" I stared at him in surprise. He's crazy, why did he have to call me "baby" and make the whole class of girls stare at me? Originally, Leng Xuan and Carlos, who never came to class, came to school because of me and made those girls ignore me, now they even popped out a sentence "baby", really want me to die!

  "I'm calling you baby! Don't you like it? Then I'll call you BeiBei!" Leng Xuan said with a pretended difficult expression.

  I reached out and touched his forehead: "The temperature is normal, no fever! What's wrong?" I asked in confusion.

  He gave me a white eye: "Bei Bei, you won't, will you!" He suddenly leaned into my ear and said: "We slept together last night, oh! No, it should be that we've been sleeping together for the past two nights!"

  "God, I helplessly looked at him and said: 'If you put it that way, then wouldn't I be everyone's baby?' I intentionally provoked him by saying so. But indeed, I have slept with many people before: Ye, Cui, Xue'er, my dad and mom..."

  He looked at me with a difficult expression: "Besides Nangong Ye, who else have you slept with?"

  "Xue Er! Feng Ji Cheng! That's it." I said innocently.

  "Hmph! I'm not joking with you anymore! Take me out for a stroll tonight, I want to relax and forget some unhappy things!" I said with a smile, thinking that so far, I'm the only one in the world who dares to tease Leng Xuan, let him be jealous!

  He looked at me with a puzzled expression and asked: "Then where's your brother? Didn't he come over specifically to find you?"

  "I think he must be very busy now!" I said seriously, stroking my chin.

  "Why?" he asked in puzzlement.

  "Did you see that girl named Lan Xing Tian this morning? Also, can you help me look up her information? I'm afraid of... " I said with a difficult expression.

  "Uh...this..." He said with some difficulty.

  "What's wrong?" I asked in puzzlement.

  He looked at me with a dissatisfied expression and said, "Last time when they checked your information, they missed the fact that you have an older brother. I'm afraid this time they will find out something you don't want them to know. Unless..."

  "What if?" I said anxiously.

  He said with a smug face: "You tell me who your brother is and invite me to dinner, and be my maid for a week."

  "No way! I just asked you to check one person, where did all these conditions come from?!" I said discontentedly.

  "Is it? Then forget it. Anyway, people like you who are ungrateful and disloyal are always like that." He said indifferently.

  "I shouted in anger: 'Who is ungrateful and forgets kindness?'"

  "Isn't it? These two days I've been accompanying you, and haven't even taken care of the helper for two days!" He also shouted loudly.

  Suddenly I heard a sound of gasping for air, and it wasn't until I looked around that I realized we were still in class, during the lesson.

  Leng Xuan also seemed to have discovered something was off and loudly shouted at everyone: "Get out of here, all of you!!!"

  "Whoosh!" In an instant, the whole class cleared out, leaving just us behind.

  "Will you answer or not?!" He suddenly said, looking at me.

  Alas! For my younger brother, I'll let it go. By the way, to repay him a bit, after all, he didn't care about his own affairs for two days because of me. Especially with his big gang, forget it. I nodded: "Okay, but you can't bully me!"

  He immediately pulled out a contract from under the table: "Sign it!"

  I stared at him incredulously, my mouth agape enough to swallow a few eggs. Before I knew it, he had already prepared the contract. I picked up the pen and signed my name with ease. "Why did you have a contract?" I asked in confusion.

  "I've been ready for a long time! And you still haven't told me who your brother is?" He pouted like a child.

  "My brother!" I paused on purpose: "Carlos!"

  "Ah!" He looked at me incredulously.

  "I knew it!" He said, and then he slipped away quickly. If you don't slip away, you'll be in trouble if you get caught!
