Chapter 532 You Steal My Boyfriend, I Seduced Your Father 42
"He's my older brother."
Xia Xizhi quickly stopped Long Yu from speaking, coughed lightly, squeezed Long Yu's hand tightly, and didn't dare to look at him because she felt guilty.
With a grin, he stepped forward and, against his conscience, introduced...
"Master Shi Ling, this is my older brother. We're a bit too far apart in age, so he looks a little older, haha..."
Long Yu's expression suddenly darkened. He glanced down at Xia Xizhi, gritted his teeth, and almost laughed in anger.
Dude!
When she's happy, she calls him "husband," and when she's unhappy, she calls him "Old Deng." Now that she's met someone she likes, she's started calling him "brother"?!
How could you cheat on him to his face?
good good!
"Aren't you going to explain, sis?"
Xia Xizhi felt a chill run down her spine from Long Yu's cold voice; her hair stood on end instantly. This was the first time she had ever heard Long Yu speak to her in such a cold tone.
Xia Xizhi quickly turned around, gave an awkward laugh, and her eyelashes trembled guiltily.
"Well, brother, this is Master Shi Ling, a new friend of mine. I have a small favor to ask him to do, so I need him to stay at our house for a while."
Then she frantically gave him meaningful glances and mouthed the words.
"I'll explain when we get back, don't rush..."
Long Yu squeezed out two words through gritted teeth, "Hehe!"
His eyes were full of "I'll settle the score with you when we get back" looks.
That look put Xia Xizhi at ease for the time being.
Shi Ling didn't witness the subtle exchange between the two; he only knew that Long Yu was Xia Xizhi's brother. After a moment's pause, his sharp, aggressive gaze instantly vanished.
He stepped forward and said very politely and humbly,
"So you are Miss Xia's brother. I apologize for my rudeness."
"My name is Shi Ling. I just met Miss Xia, but we hit it off immediately—cough cough, we really do get along well. It's like this, I just had my fortune told for Miss Xia, and it turns out she's been..."
Xia's brother needs to explain himself clearly to avoid being misunderstood as a lecherous man who preys on young girls; the first impression his family makes is very important.
Shi Ling recounted the details of Xia Xizhi's smuggling, which he had just calculated.
Long Yu had been wearing a sour face, but his expression darkened immediately upon hearing that Xia Xizhi had been smuggled. He looked at Shi Ling and narrowed his long, sharp black eyes.
A Taoist priest who swindles money?
Anyone who dares to lie to him is asking for death!
After Shi Ling finished explaining in a proper manner how he met Xia Xizhi, Nao Nao Tuo looked apologetic and said...
"I'm so sorry, sir. It's our first meeting, and I didn't have time to prepare a gift. I'll definitely make it up to you next time. Or perhaps you'd like your fortune told...?"
At this point, Shi Ling's eyes lit up.
"Brother, how about I tell your fortune for free as a gift?"
Xia Xizhi couldn't help but laugh. What was she thinking, giving someone a fortune-telling gift on their first meeting?
He really is a stone; he understands a little about human relationships, but not much.
Long Yu glanced at Shi Ling indifferently and uttered two words.
"Need not."
This kid's probably not very bright.
He doesn't seem like the kind of person who could fool such a shrewd girl...
Did the little girl bring him back for another purpose?
Shi Ling chuckled.
"That's true, you don't need to. Just by looking at your face, I can tell you're a chosen one, there's no need to calculate it."
The three of them got into the car.
Long Yu opened the passenger door for Xia Xizhi, but Xia Xizhi ended up sitting in the back with Shi Ling.
The two chatted and laughed behind them. Xia Xizhi looked innocent and pure, while Shi Ling was shy and his eyes were full of Xia Xizhi.
Long Yu looked in the rearview mirror, his face as black as charcoal.
Is he supposed to be their driver while watching his woman flirt with other men?
Suppressing the urge to punch Shi Ling to death, Long Yu stepped on the gas and sneered.
Little liar.
He had never felt so frustrated before!
He'll settle the score with her when he gets back!
"Ah!"
Long Yu glanced at the two people in the rearview mirror and gave a sarcastic laugh.
The little liar looked just like she did when she seduced him—pure and innocent.
Once they got their hands on it, they made no attempt to hide it.
Upon hearing this sarcastic "heh," Shi Ling looked up and asked in confusion, "..."
"Hey bro, is your throat bothering you?"
Xia Xizhi quickly explained.
"Yes, he recently caught a cold and has a sore throat..."
Shi Ling paused for a moment,
"A cold? You look perfectly healthy, not like you have a cold."
Long Yu chuckled, his long, slender fingers loosening his tie. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he spoke slowly and deliberately, a half-smile playing on his lips.
"Don't call me 'brother,' just call me Long, or Boss."
Shi Ling paused, embarrassed and at a loss for what to do, her face turning bright red.
Is it because Miss Xia's brother doesn't like him?
"I, I, I'm sorry... Okay, I understand. Um, Mr. Long, Miss Xia, was it a bit presumptuous of me to come to your house so abruptly? How about I prepare a gift before I visit you?"
Xia Xizhi's alarm bells rang loudly.
This won't do. Now that we've found the Stone Spirit, we absolutely cannot let him leave before we trick him into switching his soul.
Xia Xizhi quickly comforted him.
"No, no, our family isn't that particular, we don't need gifts. Oh, my brother didn't mean it that way, he's just naturally serious and has low emotional intelligence, please don't mind him. He doesn't like people calling him 'older brother' because he really does look old..."
After saying that, he glared fiercely at Long Yu out of the corner of his eye.
"Oh, I see. Then I won't call him 'brother' anymore..."
Long Yu listened to their conversation and burst into laughter in exasperation.
Is he old?
Okay, okay, tonight he'll let her experience just how old he really is!
Xia Xizhi felt a chill run down her spine for no apparent reason.
"Huh? Aren't you surnamed Xia? Why is your brother surnamed Long?" Shi Ling paused and asked in confusion.
"Oh, one of us took our father's surname, and the other took our mother's surname."
Shi Ling was surprised, "You can do that? Your family is quite open-minded."
He had only ever heard of men marrying into the woman's family and taking her surname, but he had never heard of this before. This was the first time he had ever heard of it.
“Then I can accept it, one takes after me, and the other after… after my mother.”
Shi Ling almost blurted out "whatever you want," but then she felt embarrassed and quickly looked away, her ears turning red again.
The system chuckled: "This stone spirit has already planned how many children it will have with you in the future. It's deeply in love with you, host, hehehe..."
Xia Xizhi:.......
Long Yu smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
“Indeed, my family is quite open-minded. I’m even more open-minded; my child can take my sister’s surname, Xia.”
The system pulled out a handful of sunflower seeds, its face beaming with excitement.
"Hehe, the big villain seems a bit angry. Host, your back is going to be ruined...hehe..."
Xia Xizhi:.......
