Xu Ziling’s dainty hand gently grazed across Zuiying’s cheek. She thought the curve of his strong lips.
Fuming, Zuiying turned away and ignored Xu Ziling.
She silently crawled onto Zuiying’s body. “Just sleep for a bit,” she said with a yawn.
Zuiying felt that soft, delicate body on his body and slightly furrowed his sharp brows. He didn’t say another word but shut his eyes and fell asleep. He hadn’t had a good night’s sleep for the past two days. He spent whole days tied to a pillar like a blockhead. It was truly unbearable and it was all because of this evil young lady! At that thought, Zuiying secretly gritted his teeth.
A trace of a smile couldn’t help but emerge from the corner of Xu Ziling’s mouth, as she tightly hugged Zuiying. This shadow guard’s chest is so wide, so comfortable.
Xu Jianchen sat in his own room with both hands on his chin. No matter how he tried, he couldn’t think up a good plan to steal the keys from Xu Ziling.
In the end, he let out a sigh of defeat and went to look for Xu Jianfeng for help.
Xu Jianchen strolled over to Xu Jianfeng’s courtyard and heard the sound of betting going on inside.
“This time, I’m betting Big!” The clear sound of Xu Jianfeng’s voice echoed.
“Eldest Young Master, I don’t want to gamble anymore!”
“Eldest Young Master, I don’t want to gamble anymore either! I beg that you let me off!”
…
“No! Today, I’ve been grounded. I can’t even step out of the door. I’m simply bored as h.e.l.l. If you guys don’t hang out with me, then who should I hang out with?”
“Eldest Young Master, you can go find Second Young Master or Third Young Master to hang out with!” cried the maid sweetly.
Xu Jianfeng scoffed in irritation. “What’s so fun about hanging out with those two immature kids? Don’t tell me that you want me to go bird nest picking with Second Young Master or play wooden sword fighting with Third Young Master? Sounds boring as h.e.l.l!”
Outside the building, the look on Xu Jianchen’s face instantly turned ominous. Picking bird nests was really fun and yet his big brother said it was boring!
Then, he walked into the building with an awful look on his face.
Xu Jianfeng saw that Xu Jianchen had barged in and smiled with his brows. “Second Brother, would you like your older brother to teach you how to gamble?”
Xu Jianchen looked at Xu Jianfeng’s strikingly graceful complexion and grunted softly. “Big brother, you are quite some age now. After a year or two, you should be starting your own family and business. How can you spend your days indulging in food, wine, prost.i.tutes, and gambling?”
Xu Jianfeng suddenly scoffed loudly, walked over, and smirked. “What? You, my brother who is four years younger than I am, want to teach me a lesson too?”
Xu Jianchen immediately put on a fake smile and tried to suck up to him. “Oh big brother, I misspoke. This time, I’ve come in hopes you can help think of a plan.”
Xu Jianchen looked at Xu Jianchen with a smug look on his face and waved his hand. “All of you, leave. Let us brothers talk business!”
“Yes, Young Master!” The seven or eight servants in the room immediately left.
Xu Jianchen walked up to the big, round table and took a seat, then poured himself a cup of tea.
Xu Jianfeng sat beside him and shot Xu Jianchen a glance. “Second Brother, how would you like me to help you? Do tell!”
Xu Jianchen slightly furrowed his sharp brows. “Big Brother, did you know that our big sister captured a person a few days ago?” He said flatly.
“Yeah. That day, I happened to see Xu Ziling hug the shadow guard and say he hara.s.sed her. Then, that shadow guard was detained. I suspect that Xu Ziling must have seriously dealt with that innocent shadow guard. She truly is wicked,” said Xu Jianfeng with a smirk.
“Big Brother, you have to call her “big sister”. How could you just call her by her full name?” said Xu Jianchen with furrowed brows.
