Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 917: Chapter 927: I Think I Saw My Brother

”Without Shen Qi, I think it’s quite tasty, it’s just that my appetite has always been rather small,” An Ran hurriedly said.

Shen Qi breathed a sigh of relief, ”That’s good. I was worried you might not get used to it.”

Passing a small supermarket, Lu Yi stopped, ”Hold on a bit, I’m going to buy some stuff.”

An Ran glanced at Shen Qi and blinked, ”Looks like our Young Master Lu doesn’t quite enjoy your hometown specialties.”

Sure enough, shortly after, Lu Yi came out with a bag of bread and cookies. Seeing the two girls smiling at him, he lifted his hand with some embarrassment, ”Planning to read for a while, so I prepared some night snacks. If any of you want some, I bought plenty.”

”No, eating night snacks is the easiest way to gain weight, and it’s not good for the digestive system to rest at night,” Shen Qi refused, currently studying Traditional Chinese Medicine and paying great attention to health. But after speaking, she turned to An Ran, ”Do you want to save some?”

An Ran shook her head, ”I don’t need any either.”

She really didn’t need any, not to mention she eats less at night without issue, Lu Yi had handed her some snacks along the way, so even if she got hungry, she had something to fill her stomach.

Shen Qi gazed toward An Ran, her body suddenly froze, her pupils contracted, and immediately she pushed An Ran aside and ran behind her.

”Qiqi,” Zhu Pengfei called out and followed her.

An Ran and Lu Yi also rushed over, stopped after a few steps at a corner.

”Qiqi, what’s wrong? Why are you running?” Zhu Pengfei asked, panting.

Shen Qi stared at the quiet road ahead and the bustling crowd on the other side, her brow slightly furrowed, ”I think I just saw my brother.”

”Didn’t your brother go to F Province for work? Did he come back during this time?” Zhu Pengfei asked, looking around.

”I don’t know,” Shen Qi said, pulling out her phone to find her brother’s number and dialed it.

The ringtone sounded a few times, and the other side answered with a low and hoarse voice, seemingly while sleeping.

”Hey, brother, where are you?” Shen Qi asked toward the direction where the figure disappeared.

”Qiqi, I’m sleeping in the staff dormitory, do you need anything?” Shen Bin’s yawn sound came through the phone.

”Nothing... It’s just that I wanted to tell you I came home. Earlier, I mentioned not wanting to come home but to follow the school to support the mountain area, surprisingly the school’s chosen spot is right in our town so I came back with my classmates. Did I disturb your rest?”

Hearing Shen Bin truly seemed to be sleeping, Shen Qi asked uneasily, concerned about disturbing her brother’s hard-earned rest.

”It’s alright,” upon hearing Shen Qi was home, Shen Bin seemed to have woken up, ”You’ve lucked out with the school’s special transport vehicle. As long as you’re home, I’m at ease. Do you still have money on you?”

”Yes, the money you sent last time hasn’t been spent. I don’t need that much money, brother, you should learn to save money, you also need to find a sister-in-law for me in the future.”

”What sister-in-law? Having you as my sister is enough. I’ll save the money for your wedding dowry. Alright, I won’t talk anymore, I have a shift tonight. I’ll get some more sleep,” Shen Bin said, preparing to hang up.

Shen Qi gave a couple of reminders before hanging up the phone.

Looking at the three, Shen Qi awkwardly raised her phone, ”I really made a mistake, just now I saw someone’s back and thought it was my brother.”
