Xu Zhengyang smiled and asked softly, “Everyone says that I have a sister complex. I’m very nice to her, so nice that people wonder if 1 have ulterior motives. Do you know why?”

Qi Shenbai did not say anything and quietly waited for Xu Zhengyang to continue.

Xu Zhengyang’s feelings for Xu Jiaojiao had indeed surpassed that of an ordinary sibling relationship. He helped and supported her in every aspect of their lives.

He loved her more than an ordinary brother would, but Qi Shenbai did not suspect his motives.

He saw how well Xu Zhengyang treated Xu Jiaojiao.

Xu Zhengyang sighed softly. He lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

The white smoke spun in the air and disappeared.

He looked at the disappearing smoke in the air and slowly said, “Not long after Jiaojiao was born, she was brought to the countryside and handed over to our grandmother to raise. I was the only child at home, so 1 was doted on. My family gave me all their love, and I naturally accepted it.

“Even when my father told me later that I had a younger sister, I didn’t pay much attention to it.

“When I was a kid, they brought me to our hometown to meet my sister. She was so small and hid behind the adults. Her small eyes were filled with fear as she looked at me. At that time, I felt bored. Girls are so delicate, you know? I’d rather have a little brother 1 can order around.”

Xu Zhengyang shook the ashes off his cigarette and laughed at himself.

“A few years passed after that, and that girl grew up. She chased after me and called me ‘Big Brother!’ in her childish voice. I was a boy, so how could I play with a little girl? I couldn’t accept her and chased her away every time. To make things worse, my parents seemed to always feel guilty toward her, and they sided with her in everything. As a result, they scolded me a lot. Gradually, I grew to dislike her. I even… hated her.

“She didn’t even do anything. She definitely did nothing wrong. She just wanted her brother to play with her…”

Qi Shenbai did not speak for a long time, and his brows gradually furrowed.

“Later on, she grew up. It was about time she returned to the city to study. However, every time I thought about how there would be a shadow following me from now on, how troublesome it would be, and how my parents would scold me… 1 threw a tantrum, refusing to let her come back. In the end, I succeeded in making Jiaojiao stay in that tiny hometown.”

Qi Shenbai could not help but say, “You really are a bastard.”

He could almost imagine how sad Xu Jiaojiao would be when she could not return home. She was rejected by her beloved older brother, too, as if the people closest to her were all avoiding her.

Surprisingly, Xu Zhengyang did not retort to the insult. He took a sip of wine and continued, “When we couldn’t bring Jiaojiao back, our parents were depressed for a few days. Perhaps they felt guilty, so they decided to bring her to the city to play for a while. It was just a couple of days, but she was ecstatic. She even specially changed into a few new clothes, as if she was celebrating the new year.

“Every morning, she would knock on my door punctually just to say good morning to me. But I got angry when she woke me up, so 1 told her to get lost. She didn’t say anything. She just left. During that period of time, Dad and Mom took her out almost every day to buy new clothes, new shoes, and eat delicious food. Can you imagine? Those ordinary things were enough to send her over the moon, that little fool.

“In order to avoid her, I invited my friends to go gaming and stayed out ail night. But she found me anyway and called me her brother in front of my mates. 1 couldn’t stand it and yelled at her not to call me her brother.

“That time, she didn’t cry. She just stood there for a long time. In the end, she simply apologized and left. After that day, 1 deliberately didn’t go home for a long time, thinking that my parents would be furious with me. But nothing happened when I went home. Except… she’d disappeared. After asking my father, I found out that she had already left.”

The veins on Qi Shenbai’s hand that was holding the red wine glass bulged. He narrowed his eyes and suppressed his anger. 𝒷𝓮𝒹𝓃ℴ𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

If it were not for the fact that Xu Zhengyang was Xu Jiaojiao’s older brother, he would have already punched him.

However, after thinking about it, Qi Shenbai laughed self-deprecatingly.

Compared to Xu Zhengyang, he was not much better.

After that, Xu Zhengyang did not speak for a long time. His amber eyes were filled with self-blame and sadness. He tried to compose himself several times, but he failed.

“What happened after that?” Qi Shenbai couldn’t help but ask.

“After that… After that, she really didn’t call me Brother anymore. Even when I took the initiative to look for her, she would avoid me or lower her head and evade my gaze. I never heard her call me her brother again..”
