Chapter 41 Reptiles

"Hold! Hold! What are you holding?"

The old lady picked up the chopsticks and knocked people with proficiency, just as majestic as when she was in charge of the classroom.

"He is already twenty years old, and you still hug him, still hug him! You are disrespectful, what kind of manner is this?"

Yu Xuan couldn't stand the knocking and scolding, so he stood up and hid behind Jiang Qian, holding his brother's clothes and said pitifully: "Grandma, why are you so feudal? It's just a joke with my brother..."

She was about to cry.

Haha, just pretend...

Jiang Qian let her sister shrink behind her and pretend to be innocent, and recalled the familiar scene a few years ago.

...

The young boy Jiang Qian, who had successfully survived the crisis of dropping out of school, sat astride the wall.

He looked down coldly at a few bad boys bullying his neighbor's friend Xiaojun.

However, Jiang Qian had no intention of stepping forward to help, but watched with relish.

This was unreasonable.

Before the brain trauma, even if he didn't have the courage to speak out when he saw injustice, he would still feel indignant and ashamed of this kind of bullying. But at that time, he couldn't even sympathize with Xiaojun.

He felt that Xiaojun didn't deserve sympathy: he didn't dare to look up when he walked every day, and he would blush if someone looked at him for a second. He exuded a biological signal of "I am easy to bully".

He deserved to be targeted.

"Hey, isn't that Xiaojun? Who is bullying him? Why don't you call for help?"

At some point, Yu Xuan also curiously leaned on the wall.

Her snow-white and slender arms gently rested on the wall, and her narrow and thick eyelashes fluttered gently.

Today she changed into a small dress sent back by her aunt from abroad, the same style as Frozen, with her shoulders slightly exposed, and even her hair was sparsely braided into a fluffy pigtail, which flowed on one side of her shoulder. Like a wonderful person who just came from a fairy tale world.

Even Jiang Qian had to admit that some people can quickly become popular and be hailed as national goddesses, which is based on their childhood.

Yu Xuan obviously has an aesthetic and spirituality far beyond ordinary people since childhood. As long as she is given a chance, she will stand out.

"What does it have to do with me." Jiang Qian retracted his gaze, with disdain in his tone.

This "disdain" was directed at Yu Xuan, and he was angry that she had no blood relationship with this family, but she still flew up to the branch and became a lady. Even her aunt who lived far away abroad was always thinking about her.

"Aren't you friends playing together?"

"Yu Xuan, there is no one else here, let's not pretend to be good children." Jiang Qian directly said, "If it were you, would you do something that is useless and meaningless?"

He thought he had ended the conversation.

Unexpectedly, Yu Xuan rarely corrected him seriously: "I will."

Jiang Qian looked at Yu Xuan.

Yu Xuan, who was in sight, was smiling: "Besides, it's not meaningless."

Jiang Qian frowned slightly: "What's the point? Rushing out now, are those guys going to beat me up next time?"

He found that the kind of compassion that made him uncomfortable appeared in Yu Xuan's eyes again.

"You have so many ways to bully me, but you can't do anything about your friends being bullied?"

I bully you? Sister, please check your conscience... Jiang Qian kept silent and turned a deaf ear to her.

Silence for a long time.

Yu Xuan sighed slightly with some disappointment.

Then, she climbed the top of the wall with her white and flawless hands, pushed hard, and under Jiang Qian's surprised gaze, her beautiful legs raised, turned over swiftly and jumped to the other side of the wall.

Then, she did something that Jiang Qian thought was very inconsistent with her daily "smartness" - she put her hands on her hips and shouted at a group of bad boys: "Let go of that brother!"

This behavior even made Jiang Qian a little annoyed. He always thought that he had lost to a smart woman in terms of family status.

However...

Seeing Yu Xuan righteously blocking between the bad boys and Xiaojun, fighting with the boys, and forcing several boys back by himself, Jiang Qian was sincerely stunned.

Finally, Yu Xuan raised half of the stone and smashed it on the escape route of several bad boys, declaring that he had won the battle.

Jiang Qian jumped down from the wall and walked towards the dirty but triumphant Yu Xuan.

At this time, Xiaojun had already escaped in the chaos.

Jiang Qian taunted mercilessly: "Just wait for your scolding. Thousands of dollars of new clothes are ruined like this."

"The guy you rescued ran away without even saying thank you. Tell me, what's the point of doing this?"

Yu Xuan wiped the stains on his face and smiled indifferently: "He was just too scared."

Jiang Qian admitted that when Yu Xuan smiled at him with stains all over her body and bruises on her face and arms, he felt that this woman was not so annoying for a moment.

"Scared? You must be scared silly by your toughness."

"No way! I am a fairy."

Yu Xuan hugged his shoulders smugly and said:

"Those stinky boys are just paper tigers with nothing on the surface. They only know how to pick soft persimmons. In fact, they can't even beat girls...Okay, good brother, why are you looking at me like that?"

She saw the amazement in her brother's eyes, and at the same time, a little surprise, and gloating?

Then she saw Jiang Qian pointing behind her: "Those paper tigers are back with their weapons."

"Ah?"

This time, the bad boys had weapons in their hands, some were wooden sticks, some were steel pipes and bricks picked up at random, and they came to save face with a large force.

This time, Yu Xuan hid behind Jiang Qian without hesitation...

None of the above is important.

What is important is that when the patrol security guards in the area arrived and severely taught the bad boys a lesson, they expressed a very firm and positive affirmation of Jiang Qian's brave behavior of protecting the girl.

Yu Xuan returned home and exaggeratedly described Jiang Qian's deeds to his family.

Because of her natural beauty and strong peach blossoms, she was bullied by the bad boys, and then protected by her brave brother behind her.

Jiang Yang didn't believe it at first!

But later he was convinced by Yu Xuan.

As for the dirty new clothes, it was all the bad boys' fault. What did it have to do with her, Yu Xuan?

Jiang Qian was at a loss to explain: In fact, he did nothing. He just waited for the patrol security guard in the area during the few seconds when Yu Xuan hid behind him.

He still remembers the recognition and appreciation in the security guard's eyes, as if he saw some hope for the future from his juniors.

…

At the dining table, Yu Xuan hid from the old Buddha's chopsticks and shrank behind Jiang Qian.

"Grandma, don't be angry. I'll help you peel her later!" Jiang Qian also mediated.

"I'll help you peel them too!" Auntie was amused.

The old Buddha's eyes narrowed.

"Pick up your bowls and eat!"

"Yes..."

The family of four ate lunch neatly under the pressure of the old Buddha, and there were no more troubles.

After dinner, Jiang Qian was about to return to his room to check his phone messages, but was stopped by Yu Xuan's room.

"Handsome guy, come here, let me show you something~" Yu Xuan waved mysteriously.

"No, I want to take a nap." Jiang Qian refused.

"Come on~ You can sleep here."

Jiang Qian turned his head calmly.

"Nu...?!"

Just as he was about to report, he was silenced by force.

Jiang Qian didn't struggle much, and was dragged into the room by Yu Xuan.

He thought the other party was about to talk about the children, but it turned out not to be!

But in front of Yu Xuan's huge dressing table, there was a row of small and exquisite glass jars.

The glass jars were filled with living things.

"Come and save my new pet!"

Yu Xuan locked the door, pulled Jiang Qian's wrist, and walked towards the new pet's "display area" with anxious eyes.

Jiang Qian took a quick look: a larva of a tarantula, a larva of a red-headed centipede... and a half-dead adult mantis.
