Dongfang blushed with embarrassment and hugged Chu Yuan: “Okay, okay. It was my fault. I know you want to listen to Elder Brother Nan’s words and stop watching it. It is just me who wants to watch it, okay? Please don’t be angry. Let’s just wait for ten more minutes. If we still can’t see that person at that time, we will go home immediately. Don’t worry. In the afternoon, I texted Elder Sister Xiaoye. She said she was with Brother Nan and they won’t be back home after dinner. So we’ll be fine as long as we get home before them.”
Chu Yuan gently pulled Dongfang away, took a bite of bread, and grumbled: “Just hurry up. If my elder brother knows that I lied to him and came out to buy that kind of thing, he’ll definitely get angry and hit me.”
“Does he really have the heart to do it?” The contemptuous smile on Xiao Dongfang’s face was simply the biggest insult to me, “Your elder brother simply tried to scare you. He could easily defeat Lv Siqi and his group, and can even kill a wolf. Elder Sister Xiaoye also bullies him every day, but have you ever seen fight back? Let me tell you, I have already seen through Elder Brother Nan thoroughly. Although he has thick skin, he is definitely a stupid nice guy who is open to persuasion but not coercion. Especially in front of girls, he is super useless. He might really hit you if you argue with him, but if you cry, he won’t do anything. In fact, dealing with an overly nice guy like him is the easiest thing to do.”
“That’s not true,” Chu Yuan said with lingering fear: “Last time I lied to him, he really hit me, and even though I cried, he still did not show mercy. Dongfang, you still don’t understand him. His words are more powerful than his fist. After hitting you, he will tell you a lot of philosophy. Coaxing, deceiving, and threatening, he is proficient in everything and can change your mind before you even realise it. Sometimes, even if I knew that I had been fooled, I still couldn’t help but think he was right…”
“I dare him! “Dongfang gritted her teeth and said: “I’ll definitely scream if he does that to me. Not one has hit me before, not even my mom. You think I am afraid of him?” ”
I took out my mobile phone and pressed a series of numbers while walking out of the dark corner. As Dongfang’s voice fell, Chu Yuan’s mobile phone rang. The bratty girl’s expression suddenly changed, and she said anxiously, “Oh no, it’s my elder brother!”
“Is he home already?!” Earlier on, Dongfang still had a fearless look, but now, her face was filled with anxiousness: “Yuan Yuan, tell him that we just finished eating the barbecue, and we are on our way back.” While speaking, she picked up the bags around her and stood up in a panic. Before standing up straight, she finally saw me standing below the steps, sneering. Then as if she saw the Medusa in the Greek myth, she was petrified in an instant.
“Hello, Elder Brother, Dongfang and I are on our way home…” Chu Yuan didn’t see me and didn’t notice the abnormality of Dongfang. Maybe because of the feeling of guilt, she hunched her shoulders and lowered her head as she talked on the phone. Dongfang stabbed her with her finger several times, but she didn’t look up, “Have you eaten yet? If you haven’t eaten, I will bring some food back… What are you doing? Dongfang, Why are you poking me? Hello, elder brother, why are you not speaking?”
I sneered: “If I speak, she won’t have to poke you.”
“Mhm? Elder Brother, what are you talking about? My phone seems to have a problem. I can actually hear you an echo… Ah!!!” The bratty girl probably felt pain because of Dongfang’s rapid poking, she finally raised her face with an annoyed look. But when she saw me standing in front of her, she let out a scream all of sudden, almost startling me, “Elder, Elder Brother? Why are you here?!”
I angrily snatched the bread from her hand and knocked her head, “I should be the one who is asking this question. You little brat, didn’t you say that you went to a barbecue place to eat barbecue? This is a barbecue? ”
Chu Yuan was so scared that she tried to hide behind Dongfang Lianren, “I… It was Dongfang who insisted on bringing me here! It’s not my fault!”
She gave up so quickly. Before I even scolded her, she already sold Dongfang out. Dongfang Lianren was completely stunned. She didn’t expect that Chu Yuan would betray her.
In fact, it was not that Chu Yuan didn’t want to lie, but she knew that lying was useless at this point. She had already figured out that since I had time to call her to tease her, it meant that I must have discovered her for a while now. Therefore, she quickly made a difficult choice – giving up one person to save another person… And my little sister was not the kind of girl who would sacrifice herself for other people.
“Yuan Yuan, how can you betray me?! I… cough, um, Elder Brother Nan, please don’t get angry,” Dongfang little brat’s reaction was no slower than Chu Yuan, in just a few moments, she already thought of a solution. “We originally wanted to barbecue, but I suddenly wanted to buy something, so we came here. I didn’t expect to meet you here. This is great, it saves us the money for meals. You are going to a restaurant right now, right? Then please take us with you as well.”
“Oh?” I sneered: “There is not even a store nearby, what do you want to buy here?”
“Just some small merchandise. Small merchandises sold by mobile vendors are often good in quality and low in price. They are pretty good.” The bratty girl lied shamelessly in a calm expression, making my hands itchy for some actions. Especially when I saw the incomparable admiring look that Chu Yuan cast on her, I almost wanted to press her on the ground and spank her butt right away. She must have lied so many times before that she was able to have this level of confidence. Her lying skills were even comparable to Mu Rui’s acting skills.
“Small merchandise sold by the middle-aged woman with a green canvas bag?”
“Ye… Yeah,” A flash of panic appeared in Dongfang, but she still didn’t give up. They didn’t say what they were going to buy earlier, so she was hoping that I didn’t know what the woman was selling, “Elder Brother Nan, you are so annoying. Since you already saw us, why didn’t you tell us? You actually eavesdropped on our conversation…”
I said indifferently, “When I came over there, a middle-aged woman carrying a green canvas bag stopped me and asked me if I wanted to buy her small merchandise. I wonder if she was the person you were looking for?”
Chu Yuan’s face turned pale in fear. She hurriedly stood up, wanting to beg for mercy, but Dongfang wisely stopped her and forced herself to smile: “Maybe, Elder Brother Nan, what is she selling?”
This little brat thought I was tricking her! She still refused to admit her mistakes, which made her even more guilty. I raised my hands, cracking my finger knuckles and smiling very softly. “She asked me if I wanted Japanese, European, domestic, real people, or cartoons. …”
Before I could finish my words, the smiling Dongfang little brat suddenly turned and tried to run away. However, I was prepared. I quickly grabbed the back of her collar and stopped her.
“Please don’t hit me! Elder Brother Nan, I’m sorry. I will admit my mistakes. I was wrong and I’m guilty. Please don’t hit me, please…” Dongfang Lianren was so scared that she screamed loudly and begged for mercy before I even did anything to her.
You think you can avoid your responsibility just by admitting your mistake after you lured my little sister out to buy something like that? I smacked her fiercely in her butt and said, “Why don’t you keep lying? You little brat! Just because I was being a little nice to you, you forgot how to behave yourself so quickly! You think I didn’t dare to hit you just because you will scream and cry? Now keep screaming, and let’s see if I will stop or not!”
“I didn’t say… Elder Brother Nan, ow! I won’t scream. I’m sorry. Ow! I deserved to be punished. Ow! Please stop. It hurts…”
From Dongfang little brat’s words, it could be seen that she had really never been punished by her family before. She had already admitted that she deserved to be punished, but she still wanted me to stop.
Chu Yuan knew that I normally would not get angry easily, but if I really got angry, it would be very hard to calm me down, so she hugged my arm and pleaded, “Elder Brother, please don’t…”
“Do you want to intercede for her?” I glared at her and said coldly: “You are also the same. You should think about how to admit your mistake first before interceding for her. ”
Chu Yuan immediately put away the pitiful expression and said annoyingly: “No, Elder Brother, I want you not to go easy on her. Dongfang is really bad. She actually lied to me and tricked me to come out to buy that kind of stuff with her. You need to use more strength. She isn’t hurt at all. She is just pretending. I can see it…”
I could also see that Dongfang was pretending. However, I was not her parents after all. No matter how she was in the wrong, I still could not punish her too hard… So when the sly bratty girl asked me not to go easy on her, it actually made me feel difficult to use strength.
Dongfang was so vexed by Chu Yuan’s betrayal that she finally gave up and exposed: “Yuan Yuan, how can you sacrifice your friend for your own safety?! I dare you to say that you don’t want to watch it. If you don’t want to watch it, then why didn’t you stop me? Why did you wait here with me for two hours?”
“I came here only because you begged me to come…”
“But I didn’t tell you to make up a lie. Whose idea was it to call Elder Brother Nan and tell him that we were going to a barbecue restaurant?”
“I… Dongfang, you actually have the nerve to blame me?”
“Who told you to betray me!”
“One person being beaten up is much better than two being beaten up, right?”
“True friends live together and die together!”
“What kind of friend would want her friend to die with her?!”
“You, you actually said that to me?!”
“What are you going to do about it!”
The two girls quarreled more and more fiercely, and they actually fought together, completely ignoring me. Seeing this, Dong Xiaoye and Liusu quickly ran forward to stop them. Dong Xiaoye pulled Dongfang, and Liusu pulled Chu Yuan. However, even though the two were separated, they still glared at each other angrily. It was as if the moment Dong Xiaoye and Liusu let go of their hands, they would fight each other again. Even passers-by were stunned seeing this scene.
