A skin-thirsty episode occurred, in her brother's arms.

Xu Xingchen was picked up by the pink-haired girl again.

This time it was even more open and aboveboard; they took it directly from Qin Ge.

In the video, Qin Ge's face looked so ugly it was almost a dark, gloomy mess, yet he still managed a forced smile as he urged Xu Xingchen to come back soon.

He personally opened the car door and helped Xu Xingchen into the car.

On the other hand, the pink-haired guy's face was practically splitting open with a grin.

The entire school got to enjoy this fresh and exciting news.

【Oh, devoted first wife, please wait a little longer.】

[What's the difference between this and personally wearing a green hat? /dogeJPG]

[qg going downstairs: 7th floor, not taking the stairs or elevator.]

Be a good boy, or we're done for.

[qg: You guys play, I'm fine on my own.]

[No, no, no, QG's real inner thoughts: Tonight, I'll kill that pink-haired guy.]

It's not that slow.

One second: I don't care at all; the next second: I was faking it.

As if he had won a battle, Qian Leilei triumphantly led Xu Xingchen away in front of Qin Ge.

He rolled down the car window and gave a provocative smile.

He even fastened Xu Xingchen's seatbelt right in front of Qin Ge.

The kind of departments that are very close together.

The light in Qin Ge's eyes turned cold in an instant.

Qian Leilei was satisfied and whistled, "No need to pick up Xingxing anymore, I'll take care of taking him home."

He flashed his two little fangs and said, "Bye-bye."

The sports car roared and sped off into the distance.

Qin Ge's expression became much calmer. He took out his phone and sent a few messages.

Then, as was his habit, he opened Xu Xingchen's phone messages.

I stared at the red dot that was getting further and further away for a long time.

In the car.

Xu Xingchen also felt somewhat helpless about the way Qin Ge and Qian Leilei interacted.

"You know his temper."

Qian Leilei: "He's too domineering."

"Xingxing, you're just too soft-hearted, that's why he has you completely under his thumb. This kind of person needs to be taught a lesson."

"Xingxing, have you ever seen those perverted movies? If things continue like this, he might become one of those people in the movies."

"I'll lock you in the room, not allowing you to leave even a step, making sure everything you do is under my watchful eye, forbidding you from wearing clothes, and even—"

"Cough cough."

As Qian Leilei spoke, his thoughts became increasingly rambling, almost drifting into the world of the erotic comics he was reading.

What he could think of, Xu Xingchen could naturally think of too. Xu Xingchen's breath caught in his throat, and he pinched himself hard, forcibly clearing out those unhealthy thoughts from his head.

Qian Leilei quickly changed his tune, "We'll lock you up; he's your only friend."

"Looking at his current trajectory, it really seems like he's on track. Xingxing, you really need to keep an eye on him."

Xu Xingchen hummed in agreement.

"Don't take it lightly, Xingzai. I'm really worried about you, especially since you came back this time. I've found that Qin Ge's level of perversion has reached a new level."

Is this really too much interference between good brothers?

Qian Leilei had always had this question.

Xu Xingchen: "I know."

"What was it that you didn't finish telling me last time?"

At the hot spring hotel, Qian Leilei wanted to meet Xu Xingchen alone.

Unfortunately, Qin Ge was so persistent that Xu Xingchen couldn't find a chance to shake him off, so he had to take him, Qian Leilei, and Li Zhoubai out for a meal.

After that, they agreed to meet up alone at another time.

Today is the time they rescheduled for.

When this topic was brought up, Qian Leilei, who had been somewhat indignant, suddenly fell silent.

After the car had turned several corners, he continued, "When friends become lovers, does everything change?"

"Did something happen between you and Li Zhoubai?"

Qian Leilei was a little irritated and frustrated. "It's not that, it's just... I can't quite put my finger on it."

Qian Leilei drove to the bar.

This time, they went to a new territory, staying right under Qin Ge's nose, worried that he would find out.

Qian Leilei ordered several bottles of wine.

He didn't say anything, he just kept drinking.

If Qian Leilei is unwilling to talk about something, Xu Xingchen is the best companion.

If he's willing to talk, Xu Xingchen is the best listener.

He had someone prepare hangover medicine in advance.

Qian Leilei finished the entire bottle before slowly beginning to speak.

"When we were friends, everything was great, we didn't mind so much, and we had a lot of fun. Why did everything change after we became a couple?"

"I don't know how I became this kind of person, suspicious and distrustful of my former best friends, but I just inexplicably started to care about these things."

From Qian Leilei's intermittent words, Xu Xingchen learned about the problem between Qian Leilei and Li Zhoubai.

After he and Li Zhoubai went abroad, they met a man named Shelley.

He came from Country R, ​​where he had no relatives or friends, his spoken English wasn't very good, and he was discriminated against by the local students.

Qian Leilei has always been a kind-hearted person, so he couldn't stand seeing Shelley being bullied. He pulled Shelley into his circle and introduced Li Zhoubai to him as well.

Shelley was very...delicate.

Using this word to describe him is somewhat inappropriate, but it's also reasonable.

No matter what happens, he will only shed tears of grievance and wait for help from others.

Qian Leilei helped him several times, and on some of those occasions he brought Li Zhoubai along to help.

They gradually became familiar with each other.

Later, Qian Leilei and Li Zhoubai got together, they rented a house, and their contact with Shelley decreased significantly compared to before.

It was only recently that he suddenly discovered that Shelley and Li Zhoubai had always been in contact.

Shelley often shared her life with Li Zhoubai, but Li Zhoubai never replied.

However, on two separate occasions, he said he was being followed by a pervert and was now in great danger and very scared.

The first time, Li Zhoubai helped call the police; the second time, Li Zhoubai went there in person.

In the past, Qian Leilei might not have taken such a small matter to heart; he would have helped with anything he could.

But now that he's with Li Zhoubai, for some reason, he's started to mind that Shelley sent Li Zhoubai a message.

He felt this was really strange. He shouldn't be like this. Li Zhoubai was also an independent person. He wasn't the only one.

He shouldn't care about such trivial matters.

Late one night, Shelley called Li Zhoubai again, crying about the trouble she was in and begging him to help her.

Before Li Zhoubai could respond, Qian Leilei, who had been holding back for so long, finally snapped.

He and Li Zhoubai had their first argument since they started dating.

Qian Leilei was in pain. "I know why I became like that, fixating on trivial matters. I don't even want Li Zhoubai to help Xue Lai. I've completely become someone I don't recognize. I don't know what I'm doing."

"What if he really encounters danger? What if something happens to him because of my interference..."

Qian Leilei is in great pain.

Xu Xingchen grasped his hand. "Why are you in pain? Shelley's phone can't call the police? The only person he can contact is Li Zhoubai?"

Qian Leilei hesitated for a moment, "He, he's always been in the habit of asking for help whenever he encounters a small problem."

"You don't owe him anything, so why do you keep helping him?"

Qian Leilei was speechless.

Xu Xingchen's gaze was deep. "Leilei, there is always exclusivity in love, and it cannot tolerate even a speck of dust."

"You did nothing wrong, you did a great job."

"You should have deleted his messages even earlier, when you discovered he was frequently sending messages to Li Zhoubai."

Qian Leilei's eyes became clear.

Xu Xingchen, "Why did Li Zhoubai help him? Did you ask?"

Qian Leilei said, "He said that because he's my friend, I asked him to take care of him before."

Xu Xingchen, "You said it?"

Qian Leilei nodded, feeling guilty, "I told him to help as much as he can."

"Didn't he already call the police? Why did he go there personally a second time?"

Qian Leilei: "That time I went to another city, and he called me, but I didn't answer. He said he received a call from Dai He, and the group of people who were following him last time showed up again, carrying knives."

"Last time, Li Zhoubai helped call the police, but the police there refused to respond again because there was no loss of life or property."

Xu Xingchen, "Leilei, even now, haven't you noticed anything wrong?"

Qian Leilei lowered her head again. "I don't know, I don't know what to do. There's nothing between them. I'm being paranoid, I'm being unreasonable."

He and Li Zhoubai had several arguments about this.

Li Zhoubai didn't understand why he cared so much about Shelley. If it weren't for Qian Leilei's repeated instructions to take care of Shelley for him, he wouldn't have even called the police.

Qian Leilei couldn't quite explain what it was that bothered him.

He didn't want to become the kind of person who would interfere with even Li Zhoubai's friendships.

Xu Xingchen, "Does Shelley know that you and Li Zhoubai are a couple?"

"I know, on the day we got together, I treated my classmates and friends to a meal."

"You still have Shelley's contact information?"

"Li Zhoubai deleted it; he deleted everything from both my and his phones."

Xu Xingchen was finally a little more satisfied with Li Zhoubai's performance.

"Leilei, I told you, you're not wrong. The problem is with that Shelley guy."

He clearly knew that Qian Leilei and Li Zhoubai were a couple, so why did he still often chat with Li Zhoubai about random things?

Even when they encountered danger, the first person they contacted was Li Zhoubai.

Even if he really couldn't find any other friends, logically speaking, he had a better relationship with Qian Leilei, and they were even roommates. Why didn't he contact Qian Leilei, but instead called Li Zhoubai directly?

Of course, Li Zhoubai also has problems.

Xu Xingchen unconditionally stood up for his friend.

Qian Leilei drank another glass of wine, and the effects of the alcohol began to set in.

"This is just one."

"I don't know why I've become like this. I start to fuss over the smallest things. I don't want to be like this, but I can't control myself."

"I mind everyone who appears around Li Zhoubai, men and women alike. I even can't help but want to investigate the people around him."

"We argue every other day. I'm exhausted, and so is he."

Qian Leilei buried her head in Xu Xingchen's arms, "Xingxing, it seems like he and I can never go back to the way things were."
