“Got it, ge. I’ll pay attention next time.” Yun Jian’s voice sounded soft and sweet, making one feel like pampering her. Of course, this was only Si Yi’s opinion.
Yun Jian cast her eyes down for a moment. Her ability to adjust her emotions was great, so she recovered swiftly and told Yun Yi looking at him, “Ge, we’re having dinner at Officer Ge’s place today. Mom mentioned it before. Did you know?”
Other than the lingering blush on Yun Jian’s cheeks, she had basically come back to herself now—either she had disguised it well or she was originally like that.
“I know. Mom called me,” Yun Yi said with a pat on his pants pocket, gesturing to the cellphone that was kept inside.
Now that Qin Yirou and Yun Yi had cellphones that Yun Jian had bought them, Yun Yi could contact Qin Yirou like normal even when he was staying in school.
“I’ll put my bag in my room and we can hurry there so they don’t wait too long for us,” Yun Yi said and went upstairs.
When he passed Yun Jian and Si Yi on the step, he looked at Yun Jian skeptically before shifting his gaze to Si Yi. The air did not feel quite right for some reason. Nonetheless, Yun Yi did not think much into it as he went around the two of them naturally and headed upstairs.
It was until Yun Yi went to the second floor that Yun Jian breathed in relief. She was going to turn and go downstairs after that, planning to ignore Si Yi. The guy was getting bolder! He was like that when they went barbecue the last time and he was still like that being at home this time.
If she let him do as he pleased, he would have…
Yun Jian did not continue thinking about it. As she trotted down the stairs, she smoothed out her clothes lightly.
“Xiao Jian.” When Si Yi saw Yun Jian jogging downstairs, there was a gleam in his bright eyes before he called for her in a firm but gentle voice.
Si Yi knew well that he had never spoken to anyone in such a tender tone. If someone were to offend him, he would kill them directly—it was not a bluster. This could be seen from matters that had happened before.
In spite of it, he was unprecedentedly patient and careful when it came to Yun Jian. He could treat her with his gentlest side.
When he saw that Yun Jian was actually ignoring him, he went downstairs with a smile.
With his long legs, Si Yi caught up to Yun Jian in a couple of steps and grabbed her wrist. After catching it, he moved his hand down and intertwined his fingers with Yun Jian’s to hold her hand.
At the same time, an awkward cough rang from the stairs of the first floor. “Cough! Cough! Cough!”
Needless to say, Yun Yi had seen Si Yi’s action from the staircase. Just as his cough was heard, he had made his way down to the first floor as well.
Without looking at Si Yi and Yun Jian, he coughed twice and told Si Yi, “Younger brother-in-law, let’s go.”
He was gratified to call the young man “younger brother-in-law”. So what if Si Yi was older than him? Yun Yi would still get to address him as a younger brother-in-law, heh heh!
Yun Yi chuckled discreetly before he acted serious and stepped out of the house first.
Si Yi was once again pleased when Yun Yi referred to him as a brother-in-law. Holding Yun Jian’s hand, he left the house too.
Ge Junjian’s house and Dong Ruan’s place were not in the same area but both their houses were villas, the type ordinary people could not afford. Going from Dong Ruan’s place to Ge Junjian’s place was a short distance away.
Yun Jian, Si Yi, and Yun Yi did not drive, taking 20-30 minutes to arrive as the three of them walked there.
