He just broke up with his girlfriend and is already living with the devilish rich girl.
Chapter 52 The Only Family Member
Zheng Yueyao froze on the sofa.
She looked down at herself, wearing Bai Qing's pajamas, her hair a mess.
The sofa cushion imprint was still on her face, which she had just woken up from.
"This is my sister's house."
Bai Ziheng's tone was flat, but every word carried a stiff coldness.
"What is your relationship with my sister?"
Zheng Yueyao was stunned.
"Your sister...?"
Then the gentle face in her mind overlapped with the cold face in front of her.
Bai Qing's words from last night kept coming back to mind.
So... he's Bai Qing's younger brother.
"Bai Qing...is she your sister?"
She murmured it aloud, as if she had finally put the two pieces of a puzzle together.
She kept talking about you all night.
"They said you work at a supermarket, that you're a diligent worker, and that you've been sensible since you were little, and that..."
Answer my question.
Bai Ziheng interrupted her, his voice low.
"How did you and my sister meet?"
Once his sister is involved, Bai Ziheng has no room for negotiation.
not to mention……
He knew Zheng Yueyao's identity.
Special Administration Bureau, Demon Slayer Team, Superhumans.
Given his dangerous identity, why would he be sitting on his sister's sofa?
Zheng Yueyao gripped the hem of her pajamas tightly, her voice somewhat hurried.
"Last night...I encountered some bad people."
"Sister Bai Qing saw me on the street, and she...she told me to hide in her cart and helped me fool those people."
"Later, I got hungry, and she cooked me a bowl of wontons. I told her I had nowhere to go, so she invited me to stay at her house for the night."
She spoke softer and softer until she was almost talking to herself.
"I really... I'm only staying one night. Sister Bai Qing is a good person, I definitely won't cause her any trouble..."
Bai Ziheng frowned.
He stared at Zheng Yueyao for a long time and realized that she wasn't lying.
Where's my sister?
"I...I don't know...she was right next to me last night..."
"Next to you?"
Bai Ziheng frowned even more deeply.
"You slept together?"
Zheng Yueyao's face flushed bright red.
"No! That's not it! The sofa, I'll sleep on the sofa!"
"I couldn't sleep at night, so Sister Bai Qing came out to keep me company... She sat next to me and kept comforting me..."
Her voice grew softer and softer, and her face turned so red it was almost steaming.
Bai Ziheng looked at her and remained silent for a long time.
Then he sighed.
That's right.
That's something my older sister would do.
He remembered that his older sister was like this when he was a child.
At that time, they lived in government-subsidized low-rent housing in the suburbs, and on rainy days, stray cats and dogs would often appear on the riverbanks after being washed down by the water.
Some were lame, some were blind in one eye, and some were skin and bones.
My sister would always bring them home and feed them by breaking up the steamed buns she had saved up.
Then they took them and went from house to house asking who would like to raise them.
Those stray cats and dogs made a mess of the house quite often, and the neighbors gave her a lot of dirty looks.
Once she brought home a cat with a skin disease.
Everyone in the building was cursing at her, saying she was mentally ill, and that she, a garbage collector, was trying to act like a philanthropist.
The older sister didn't say anything, but carried the cat all over the city until she finally found a pet shop that was willing to take it in.
When I got home, the soles of my shoes were worn through, and my feet were covered in blisters.
But she smiled very happily and said that the cat now has a home.
Bai Ziheng snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the girl in front of him wearing her older sister's pajamas.
But sister...
He sighed inwardly.
Don't pick up everything you see...
Bai Ziheng entered the room and closed the door.
He leaned against the door, looking at Zheng Yueyao.
"My sister is a very kind person."
"I...I know! Sister Bai Qing is really—"
"So I don't want her to get involved in any trouble."
Bai Ziheng coldly interrupted her.
"Do you get me."
Zheng Yueyao's words stuck in her throat.
She looked into Bai Ziheng's emotionless eyes and slowly nodded.
"Yes. I...I know, I'll leave right away."
She stood up from the sofa and hurriedly folded the thin blanket.
Bai Ziheng stepped aside to make way for her, clearing a path to the door.
Zheng Yueyao walked to the door and then stopped.
"The clothes... belong to Sister Bai Qing. I'll wash them and return them to you. Could you please give them to Sister Bai Qing?"
"Can."
Zheng Yueyao nodded and reached for the doorknob.
She was very thin, and even her sister's pajamas seemed a bit too loose for her.
The wound that had been torn open during last night's chase seemed to be bleeding again as she ran. She clutched her ribs with one hand and walked very lightly.
Bai Ziheng looked at that retreating figure and clicked his tongue in displeasure.
Don't meddle in other people's business, Bai Ziheng, don't meddle in other people's business...
In particular, don't meddle in matters related to the Special Administration Bureau.
Zheng Yueyao opened the door.
"Wait a moment."
Bai Ziheng's voice made her turn her head.
He pulled a piece of sticky note from the shoe cabinet, took out a pen, wrote a string of numbers on it, and handed it to her.
"This is my number. If you need any help, just contact me next time."
Zheng Yueyao was stunned.
She took the note, her fingers trembling slightly.
Bai Ziheng looked away, his voice very low.
"She's my only family member. I don't care what trouble you had last night, but I hope you won't get involved with my sister anymore, okay?"
Zheng Yueyao looked at the note in her hand, then looked up at Bai Ziheng.
She suddenly smiled.
A faint light shone in those tired eyes.
"You and your sister... are actually the same."
"Um?"
"You are all so gentle and kind... Thank you..."
Bai Ziheng was stunned for a moment, then turned his face away.
"Tsk, you'd better get out of here."
Not long after Zheng Yueyao left, Bai Qing returned humming a little tune.
"Little Yueyao! Big sister is back! Are you awake? Big sister will make you something delicious..."
Before she could finish speaking, she saw Bai Ziheng wearing an apron and busy in the kitchen.
"Hey~ it's Xiao Heng~!"
Bai Qing's eyes lit up. She put the vegetables down in the entryway, kicked off her shoes, and rushed over, hugging Bai Ziheng's waist from behind.
"What brings you here?"
"Sis, I'm cooking."
Bai Ziheng didn't turn around, focusing intently on slicing the potato shreds in his hands.
"Um……"
Bai Qing pressed her cheek against his broad back and rubbed against it.
"Did you see a...very pretty little girl?"
She said she had something to do and had already left.
Bai Ziheng's hands didn't stop moving.
"She also said thank you very much for taking care of her."
"They actually left..." Bai Qing's tone carried a hint of disappointment.
"What a shy child. I'd love to let her try my cooking."
After Bai Ziheng finished slicing the potatoes into shreds, he turned off the stove and turned around.
"Sis, how many times have I told you not to set up your stall at night? Have you been doing it every night lately?"
"Um……"
Bai Qing guiltily looked away, squinted her eyes, and playfully stuck out her tongue.
"Your sister wants to save more money for you..."
Bai Ziheng sighed and rubbed his temples.
"Sister, I'm 24 now, I'm an adult, and I can support myself."
He looked at Bai Qing, his tone more serious than ever before.
"Can't you focus more on yourself? Shouldn't you go find someone to date, sis?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Qing immediately put her hands on her hips and pouted slightly.
She has a naturally gentle, angelic face, even when she feigns anger.
It also exudes a gentle and lovely vibe, lacking any intimidating power.
"Oh, you... why are you starting to boss your sister around!"
She reached out her finger and poked Bai Ziheng's chest.
"Even if I never date again, sister, are you just going to abandon me?"
"I... I didn't think that way."
Bai Ziheng was somewhat at a loss for words when she asked him that question.
"Waaaaah..."
Bai Qing covered her eyes and pretended to cry.
"My little brother has grown up and doesn't like his older sister anymore. He wants to get rid of this burden..."
"Sis...why do you always do this?"
Bai Ziheng was most afraid of her using this tactic, and he was immediately at his wit's end.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to concern myself with these things anymore, alright?"
He raised his hands in surrender.
"but!"
He then changed the subject.
"You're not allowed to set up your stall at night anymore."
Bai Qing lowered her hand, her eyes not a single tear in them, and she secretly stuck out her tongue.
Chong Bai Ziheng made a "V" sign.
"No joking around."
Bai Ziheng had a stern face.
"Promise me you won't set up a stall at night."
"Hmm, that would mean earning a lot less money."
Bai Qing muttered to herself.
"I can make money, so you don't need to worry about that."
Bai Ziheng spoke with a firm tone.
Seeing her younger brother's serious expression, Bai Qing felt a warmth in her heart and couldn't help but start acting again.
"Oh, my little brother has really grown up; he knows how to care for his older sister now..."
"Don't say things like that, sis...you're a grown woman now..."
Bai Ziheng's cheeks were slightly flushed.
"What does it matter?"
Bai Qing straightened her chest confidently.
"I raised you from a baby to an adult, I even bathed you. You were only this tall when you were little..."
"Sister!" Bai Ziheng's face turned completely red.
