Chapter 211: Chapter 211 Brother Qin Tian Save Me!

He had thought Qin Tian was really going to stay overnight, but unexpectedly, after receiving a phone call, Qin Tian decided to leave, and Lu Qing was caught off guard.

”You, you’re not staying?” Lu Qing’s face flushed, she asked in surprise.

”Uh, I did want to,” Qin Tian turned back and smiled, ”but I have to deal with something early tomorrow, can’t stay. Heh, maybe some other day?”

”Who wants you to come back another day? Just go, better you leave, I won’t keep you! Hmph!”

Seeing Qin Tian turn back around, the reluctance in Lu Qing’s heart suddenly withdrew, and her already bashful cheeks flushed even redder under his gaze.

As Qin Tian was about to put on his shoes to leave, something struck Lu Qing, and she called out to him: ”Hey, didn’t you ask me how best to confess to a girl?”

Qin Tian turned back to look at her.

”Um... The best way to confess should be romantic, incredibly impressive, beyond the girl’s expectations, something she’ll remember for a lifetime. That way, she will never forget you!”

Gazing at Qin Tian, Lu Qing spoke with a red face, seemingly mustering all her courage.

After listening, Qin Tian gave her a faint smile.

”Oh, I see, good... I got it.”

Wearing a smile, Qin Tian turned and left.

In the room, Lu Qing, dressed in a white T-shirt, watched his dashing figure disappear at the doorway; she took a deep breath, her gaze somewhat distant, the corners of her eyes slightly moist...

...

When he returned to Green Bamboo Forest, Murong Fei and Su Xuejiao were still awake, the two sisters discussing what birthday gift to get for Murong Bei in the living room.

”Grandpa only has one birthday a year; sis, we should get something more valuable this year,” Su Xuejiao suggested.

Murong Fei retorted, ”It’s normal to have a birthday once a year, what else?” She glanced at the tongue-sticking Su Xuejiao and continued, ”Grandpa has already said that he wants a low-key celebration this New Year’s, no outsiders, just a family meal is enough. No gifts.”

”No gifts? That’s for others, right? We definitely need to get gifts. Otherwise, Grandpa will surely be heartbroken...” Su Xuejiao said.

”I know. But as his nearest and dearest, we can’t measure our gifts in terms of money; that would be too vulgar. We need sincerity, understand?” Murong Fei was also furrowing her brow as she spoke, seemingly pondering what to give Murong Bei.

”If we can’t measure by money, then what should we give...” Su Xuejiao was also at a loss at once, ”Grandpa lacks nothing, and it’s already difficult to give him a present. Now we can’t base it on money, so what do we give?”

”It’s meaningless to measure by money, hehe, isn’t the money you have given by your grandpa?” Qin Tian walked in and said.

Seeing Qin Tian’s return, Murong Fei appeared unimpressed, giving him only a glance, apparently displeased by the sound of a woman’s voice on the phone earlier from Qin Tian’s end.

Su Xuejiao, however, greeted Qin Tian cheerfully, ”Brother Qin Tian, you think so too? Then what should we give? I’m already broke, all my money comes from Grandpa, any gift I buy is just a token of my affection.”

”Right, affection. As long as your affection is genuine, your grandpa will surely be happy, even if you give him nothing,” Qin Tian said, smiling.

”Nonsense...”

Murong Fei glanced at Qin Tian and remarked, ”Give nothing? I can’t believe you came up with that.”

Qin Tian was startled; by now, he had some understanding of Murong Fei’s temperament. Seeing her displeasure and the way she addressed him, Qin Tian knew that the icy CEO was definitely angry with him again.

However, he couldn’t figure out what he had done wrong this time. Could it really be because I came back late?

They’re not even married yet, could she really be preparing to be a strict wife?

”Sis, I think what Brother Qin Tian said makes a lot of sense. As long as the sentiment is there, even if he doesn’t bring any gift, I believe grandpa would be very happy,” Su Xuejiao said, standing beside Qin Tian.

Upon hearing this, Murong Fei pursed her lips and looked at Su Xuejiao in surprise, then turned her gaze to Qin Tian.

”Xuejiao, when did you start siding with him? I’m your sister, yet you’re actually helping him speak?” Murong Fei said discontentedly.

Murong Fei couldn’t understand how her younger sister, whom she had grown up with, was suddenly speaking in favor of Qin Tian.

”Sis, I stand with the reasonable side. Your words just aren’t as sensible as Brother Qin Tian’s,” Su Xuejiao pouted.

”Qin Tian... Brother...”

Murong Fei muttered softly and felt her nerves twitch. This term of address was just too mushy.

Yet, there was Su Xuejiao, calling Qin Tian ”Brother Qin Tian” over and over again in such an affectionate way, which made Murong Fei feel rather uncomfortable.

”You little brat, at your young age you can already tell right from wrong? Go upstairs to sleep now!” Murong Fei, unable to win the argument, played the sister card.

”I won’t. I’m taking a leave tomorrow anyway; I’m not going to school, so why should I go to sleep so early?” Su Xuejiao said.

”You’re talking back now? Are you going or not?!”

Murong Fei stood up, her lips pursed, glaring at Su Xuejiao with anger on her face.

”Brother Qin Tian, help! My sister is going to hit me, help me...”

Seeing that Murong Fei was getting angry, Su Xuejiao immediately hid behind Qin Tian, acting all coquettish.

Qin Tian was speechless. What does this have to do with me?

Looking up and seeing Murong Fei’s gaze fixed on him, Qin Tian offered an embarrassed smile and said, ”President Fei, Xuejiao is just a child, so please calm down. Since she has taken a leave for tomorrow, it’s okay for her to sleep a bit later...”

”Get out of the way!”

Before Qin Tian could finish speaking, Murong Fei interrupted him and walked straight up to Su Xuejiao. Su Xuejiao, frightened, clung tightly to Qin Tian’s arm, pleading, ”Brother Qin Tian, save me, save me...”

Murong Fei, already somewhat annoyed with Qin Tian, saw Su Xuejiao siding with him and was already fuming with rage. Now that Qin Tian was also shielding Su Xuejiao, her fury soared from three chi high to ten!

”President Fei, tomorrow is your grandfather’s birthday. Please, calm down, no need to get angry...” Qin Tian said, smiling and spreading his arms to shield Su Xuejiao behind him.

If it had been before, Qin Tian definitely wouldn’t have stood up for Su Xuejiao, but the current Su Xuejiao, who was much more obedient and sensible than before, and Su Xuejiao’s cries of ”Brother Qin Tian, save me”, were so endearing that he felt he had to step up.

Murong Fei looked at Qin Tian and said indifferently, ”Are you going to move or not?”

”If you don’t hit Xuejiao, I’ll move,” Qin Tian said earnestly.

For some reason, Murong Fei felt a sudden jolt in her heart when she heard Qin Tian call Su Xuejiao ”Xuejiao,” filled with a bittersweet sensation.

Murong Fei’s eyes flickered as she looked at Qin Tian and gritted her teeth, ”If you don’t move, I’ll hit you too!”

Saying this, she reached out without further discussion and lunged for Su Xuejiao, who was hiding behind Qin Tian!
