Chapter 104 - My Little Sister Called Me Big Brother!
As the voice of the young esports legend dispersed, the scene became silent and the comments in the livestream seemed to have frozen.
One second...
Two seconds...
Whoosh —
The netizens in the stream instantly exploded: [F*ck?! Brother?? Smog and the Vase Fairy are brother and sister!]
In the set, Xiao Yang, who was dumbfounded for a few seconds, had flipped faster than the pages of a book, his smile disappearing. "So you"re my big brother-in-law! My bad, my bad; I was disrespectful, big brother. This drink is for you!"
In Nancheng, big brother-in-law was how one would address a wife"s older brother.
As soon as Xiang Yu heard this, his trash talk switch flicked on. "Do you think I am a locksmith? Are you worthy?* You mother...."
Xiang Yi covered his mouth just in time as she said, "Big brother will be banned for swearing." Detecting his anger, the girl softly coaxed him, "Big brother, just ignore him. He"s not worth your time or your anger..."
The esports legend, who had just been furiously explosive, calmed down in an instant and stared at the young girl with an incredulous expression.
Ah ah ah ah ah ahhhh!!!
His sister had called him big brother! Twice! TWICE!!!
He calmed his emotions and, in a seemingly callous manner, told her, "Tell him to get lost!"
However, everyone could see his smile almost reaching the end of his ears.
Xiao Yang was still thinking about the food as he hurriedly said, "Even if we don"t get back together, at least let me have a bowl of rice. I killed that rabbit after all..."
"You want to eat my sister"s cooking? In your dreams!" Xiang Yu began to swear once again. He pulled up the zipper on his tracksuit as if he was about to get violent.
Xiang Yu did not know what hit him as he suddenly felt unable to exert his strength...
He looked toward Xiang Yi with a puzzled expression, only to be greeted with a gentle smile. "Big brother, you"re right: he"s not worth it. He doesn"t deserve to eat my cooking, but he"s even less worthy of receiving your beating."
She gestured toward the garden.
The next second —
Several bodyguards dressed in black appeared as if they had just descended from the sky. They picked up Xiao Yang and walked out without a word.
Xiao Yang: ???
"Hey, put me down! I"m commanding you to put me down, do you hear me?! Xiang Yi, how could you treat me like this? I haven"t had a bite of food yet!"
The audience laughed to pieces.
— [This sc.u.mbag doesn"t seem very smart, ah. What time is it now to still be thinking about eating]
— [Haha this only means our Yi mei"s cooking is impeccable!]
— [Woo! That feels so good! You have to be rough with sc.u.mbag men like that. Don"t give him a chance to disgust you!]
— [They actually have bodyguards… Sorry, I underestimated the Little Vase"s family background… OTL]
…
Xiao Yang was tossed out of the manor.
The world was calm once more.
The only person who was anxiously still sitting on pins and needles was Bai Ruoruo.
Her eyes were terrifyingly red, her lips quivering. She wanted to say something, but no sound could come out.
Everyone else was busy enjoying their food.
The spicy and numb rabbit was crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. When bitten into, oil would spill out with traces of spiciness permeating every trace of the meat.
Xiang Yi had made two large plates. One was a numbing spice for Xiang Yu, who was already covered in sweat, while the other was mild and had been prepared especially for s.h.i.+ Sui. The man savored his dish slowly, with a handsome expression that seemed as if he were enjoying a Michelin-star meal.
The broiled fish fillet was tender, and it melted in one"s mouth, while the bean sprouts, konjac threads, vegetables and other sides had been perfectly blanched in hot oil. The flavors of all the vegetables were perfectly fused, elevating the fillet"s fragrance. When eaten in intervals, the taste of the dish would slowly disperse, constantly stimulating the taste buds as if they will explode the next instant.
"Actually… Actually, I was fooled by Xiao Yang as well…" After holding it in for so long, Bao Ruoruo could only come up with this statement.
Xiang Yi didn"t raise her gaze as she indifferently said, "I won"t pursue this matter. But I did check the surveillance. You kicked Xiao Naofu first."
Bai Ruoruo felt her back go cold as she prepared her pitiful expression to the extreme.
She had only kicked that stray cat! Why won"t you let it go?!
*Translator"s Note: In Chinese, "are you worthy" literally translates to "do you match", so it"s often paired with the term "are you trying to match a key or are you a locksmith" and said in a derogatory manner.
