"Little sister, what do you want to do next?" Rong Jingshuo asked Wen Zhining.

There were only three of them in the car.

Seeing that Jiang Jihe had brought her flowers and food, Wen Zhining knew she would definitely sit with him.

Xue Peng was afraid that Wen Yuesheng would be isolated by being alone in the car, so he went to Wen Yuesheng's side.

Wen Zhining took a sip of milk tea. "I want to travel."

Jiang Jihe glanced at her, then looked straight ahead.

"Traveling is good," Rong Jingshuo agreed. "Where would your sister like to go?"

"Dali," she replied, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

Rong Jingshuo gave an "oh" sound, seemingly lost in thought.

Dali, a romantic travel destination for couples.

After the meal, everyone went home.

Jiang Jihe originally wanted to give Wen Zhining a ride back, but Wen Yuesheng said it wasn't necessary and it would be too much trouble, saving him the trouble of taking her home and then back to school.

Jiang Jihe glanced at the girl standing next to him and replied, "Ningning, I'll be going now."

"Okay." Wen Zhining waved her hand. "Thank you for the cake, milk tea, and flowers, brother."

"I'm glad you like it." Jiang Jihe raised his hand to say goodbye to her, then got on Xue Peng's and Rong Jingshuo's back and left for school.

"Your hair looks much better today, Lao Jiang, your skills are pretty good."

The sound faded into the distance, and Wen Zhining could no longer hear Xue Peng's voice.

"Are you going on a trip? Do you want me to come with you?" Wen Yuesheng asked. "I can go back to school and catch up on my homework and holiday exams. It should only take a few days."

"No need." Wen Zhining put the flowers away. The flowers next to them were all gifts from Jiang Jihe. They took a picture together.

My brother always gives me this when I leave the exam hall, I love it! Exams are over, I'm going on a trip!

After typing the text and adding the photo, Wen Zhining sent it.

"Who goes on a graduation trip with their own brother? How boring! If you want to find a sister-in-law, why don't you? I can manage on my own. Brother, give me the money." Wen Zhining rubbed his hands together.

Wen Yuesheng returned to his room heartbroken.

Within seconds, Wen Zhining received the transfer from Wen Yuesheng.

"Thank you, brother!" Wen Zhining called out sweetly from the doorway.

Wen Yuesheng curled the corners of his mouth slightly.

Wen Zhining happily returned to her room.

When Wen Zhining woke up the next day, she saw a message from Jiang Jihe, sent in the early hours of the previous night:

[Ningning, would you like to travel alone? When?]

I thought about it a lot and really wanted to ask, but I couldn't sleep until the early hours of the morning, so I asked anyway.

[It should be just me, maybe I could invite the classmate who's taking tutoring with me and is the top student in our school, that way I'd have someone to keep me company and they could take pictures of me.]

【Can Ningning consider me as a potential partner?】 Jiang Jihe sent this message and waited for a reply.

The person had just woken up and probably went to wash up after replying, so Jiang Jihe waited for a while.

"Old Jiang, are you applying to take the exam early?" Rong Jingshuo asked.

"Hmm," Jiang Jihe responded, still looking at his phone.

"Waiting for your sister's message?" Rong Jingshuo saw through it at a glance. "If you want to chat with her, just drive over."

"I'm going to take my physical education exam later."

"Sports are such a pain," Rong Jingshuo sighed. "Old Jiang, can't you give me some of your skills?"

"Don't bother me if you're useless. Ningning is younger than you, but she's smart and capable."

Rong Jingshuo: "..."

Yes, that's the right way to keep both sentences talking about Wen Zhining.

After washing up and having lunch, Wen Zhining slowly replied:

But brother, aren't you going to play with sister?

Jiang Jihe knew she knew nothing, and didn't know that Le Baiqing had been imprisoned, so he didn't say anything.

Otherwise, given Ningning's naive nature, she would definitely worry about her going to find her.

Jiang Jihe left the dormitory. "I broke up with her. She has her own life. Ningning, don't worry about her."

He texted as he walked downstairs: "[Ningning said she wants to go to Dali. I can make the plans. I also studied photography in school. We're so close, wouldn't it be perfect for us to go together?]"

What my brother said makes a lot of sense, but your school hasn't started its holiday yet, has it?

I'm applying to take the exam early now; the school will approve it.

After all, he was an outstanding student.

Okay, then let's go on a trip together after my brother finishes his exams.

Jiang Jihe smiled and said, "Okay."

Jiang Jihe was worried that Wen Zhining would be bored at home, so he made sure to finish her final exams in two extra days.

I booked a ticket, bought a first-class ticket, packed my luggage in the dormitory, put it in the trunk of the car I had booked, and asked the driver to pick up Wen Zhining.

Wen Zhining was wearing the dress Jiang Jihe had given her. She waited at the door for a while, and then the car arrived.

She got into the car and put her backpack on the back seat.

She didn't bring much with her, just a few clothes, and she didn't need to wear makeup or cosmetics.

As soon as she started driving, Wen Zhining received a call from Wen Yuesheng.

"You went out with Lao Jiang?"

"Yes, my brother and I are already on our way to the airport," she said cheerfully.

Wen Yuesheng: "..."

"You won't let me accompany you, but you let that guy accompany you instead?" he protested.

"My brother paid for the plane ticket this time," she said matter-of-factly. "And he even made travel plans for me and took me sightseeing. If I went out with you, you would only criticize me."

Wen Yuesheng seemed to hear Jiang Jihe's laughter on the other end of the line, and hung up the phone in anger.

"I just got back and found that Lao Jiang's things were almost all gone. I didn't expect him to finish his exams early and take my younger sister out of the province," Wen Yuesheng said to Rong Jingshuo and Xue Peng.

"Calm down, you have to trust Lao Jiang's character. He'll take better care of your sister than you do," Xue Peng said.

"Hmph." He sneered, "I'm Ningning's real brother."

"Calm down. We have to deal with company matters now that Lao Jiang is gone. Remember to come back to the company after the exam," Rong Jingshuo said.

Wen Yuesheng: "..."

I felt even more desperate.

"What did your brother say?" Jiang Jihe leaned closer and asked her softly, staring at her with a smile.

Wen Zhining hung up the phone, turned her head to look at him, and was about to respond when she realized that the two of them were very close.

He seemed completely oblivious, his eyes crinkling with a charming charisma.

"He's probably afraid you'll steal me away, so he asked me why I don't go on the trip with you instead of him."

"Then Ningning, can you tell me why?" he asked softly.

"I like you, brother." Wen Zhining looked up at him.

Jiang Jihe's eyes darkened.

"I like being with my brother; he's very good to me." Wen Zhining took his arm.

"I'm a little sleepy, can I lean on you for a while, brother?" she asked softly.

"Okay." Jiang Jihe's voice was hoarse. "I'll wake Ningning up when we get there."

A weight came down on my shoulder.

Wen Zhining fell asleep quickly.

Jiang Jihe was left gazing at her face, then raised his hand to brush aside the stray hairs that were obscuring her face and gently tucked them behind her ear.

He dared not move, afraid of waking her.

Once seated in first class, Jiang Jihe ordered a meal, and Wen Zhining was eating with him, exchanging a few words every now and then.

The atmosphere was warm and friendly, not awkward at all.

The two seats were separated by the aisle, and Wen Zhining felt too lonely to eat much.

Jiang Jihe then sat down and had lunch with her.

The plane was still taking off and wouldn't arrive in Dali anytime soon, so Wen Zhining reclined her seat and lay down, preparing to take a nap.

"Brother, are you leaving?" Wen Zhining stopped Jiang Jihe when she saw him about to go back.

"Ningning," he called out to her, wanting to say that this was wrong, but they had already slept together in each other's arms before.

But she didn't know.

But this time she didn't want him to leave.

Looking at the person who depended on him, Jiang Jihe fell silent.

He let her pull him down to sleep next to her, sharing the same blanket.

He held her in his arms, fully conscious.

When the exam results came out, Wen Zhining was at the hotel preparing to check her scores when Jiang Jihe went out for a while.

He came back carrying a bag. As soon as he entered the door, he heard her cheer. Without even putting on her shoes, she jumped off the bed and pounced on him.

With her legs draped around his waist, she exclaimed excitedly, "Brother! I can apply to your school now!"

Jiang Jihe quickly grabbed her with his free hand, afraid that she would fall.

"I know Ningning can." He patted her back, feeling the close contact between their bodies, and the softness there.

"Come down first, Ningning, I've prepared a gift for you."

When she tried to get off him, Jiang Jihe realized she wasn't wearing shoes, so he held her down again.

He lifted his foot, letting her hang on him, and walked steadily and slowly to the bedside, bending down.

Wen Zhining then sat back on the bed.

"What gift?" she asked curiously, looking at the bag he was holding.
