Chapter 855: How Do You Explain This
....
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio was not satisfied with the houses in Trinity Village mainly
because of the lack of privacy, the couple found it inconvenient to do anything they wanted.
Early in the morning, Zhou Hengyang’s mood was bad as he grappled with the realization that he was constrained from taking any meaningful action. After bidding farewell to Su Xiu and Su Qing, who were already awake, he left the house without having his breakfast.
“Big brother, what’s wrong with you?” Zhou Hengguang, clad in a loosely worn silk nightgown with an untied waist belt, presented his usual self. Without his gla.s.ses, he emerging from slumber seemed entirely transformed. Stretching out on the sofa, an air of laziness and unbridled mischief surrounded him.
This aspect of Zhou Hengguang did not sit well with Zhou Hengyang.
Regrettably, despite numerous reminders to thoroughly disguise his true self, Zhou Hengguang consistently fell short of the mark. Zhou Hengyang, aware of his brother’s true colours, was displeased.
“Get up,” Zhou Hengyang kicked him in frustration.
Zhou Hengguang buried his handsome face in a soft pillow and muttered, “Don’t be noisy. It’s too early.” “It’s already eight o’clock.” “Let me sleep a little longer.”
“Get up. I’ll take you to work.”
“No,” Zhou Hengguang, still half-asleep, couldn’t open his eyes. Irritated at being awakened early by his big brother, he couldn’t vocalize his anger. If it were someone else, they would have met a miserable fate.
Zhou Hengyang raised an eyebrow and advanced two steps. Knowing his brother’s pa.s.sion for joining in activities, Zhou Hengyang found it peculiar that he refused this time.
Observing closely, Zhou Hengyang sensed something amiss. “What time did you sleep last night?”
“I didn’t sleep all night.”
Zhou Hengyang’s expression became complicated. Drawing from personal experience, he warned, “Young people are pa.s.sionate, but you should control yourself. If possible, find someone to spend your life with. Stay away from those chaotic women outside. With a messy private life like yours, no one would want to marry a scoundrel like you.”
Feeling sorry for Hengguang’s future father-in-law, Zhou Hengyang’s words struck a chord.
Zhou Hengguang, suddenly alert, raised his head. “Big brother, what did you
“I said, don’t overdo it.” Zhou Hengyang kicked him again.
Despite his leading a monk-like existence, his brother messed himself up into this sorry state. Throughout his youth, Hengguang had displayed decent self-control, making his current behaviour all the more puzzling.
“Did you encounter a seductress?” If not, how else could she have seduced his brother to the point of sleeplessness?
Zhou Hengguang’s expression shifted from shock to embarra.s.sment as he abruptly stood up from the sofa. “How dare you say that? I’m working overtime. Do you have any idea how much workload you’ve dumped on me?”
Zhou Hengguang had been working since returning from the restaurant the previous day. Foregoing even his overtime meals, he worked until four in the morning before catching a brief nap, only to be roused by his big brother.
Pointing at his neck and then at his brother’s, Zhou Hengyang exclaimed,
“Explain this!”
In an instant, the previously angered sibling covered his face with his sleeping robe. His handsome face turned red. “No, you’ve got it all wrong,” he said..
