Qi Cheng dully watched the scene unfolding in front of him as he covered his brother's mouth. He had never seen him in such clothes nor had he seen him with his ear piercings but he had to admit that he looked kinda cool. The way he kicked angrily and glared icily, he had never seen this side of him but for the first time.
Qi Yi pulled away from his brother and called out the youth before him. He didn't pay any attention to other people, looking straight at the youth. He ran toward him and Qi Cheng had no choice but to follow him closely.
"What are you doing here ?" Han Zhuoli rubbed the little creature's head and asked softly. He also glanced at Qi Cheng from the corner of his eyes.
"We were going to get our father" Qi Yi happily explained what happened rubbing his head against his palm in return. The corner of his lips turned up after witnessing him behaving so cutely while the others were dumbfounded when they saw him acting completely unlike before.
"Ah ?" Han Zhuoli paused for a moment then looked at Qi Cheng and back at Qi Yi a few times. He was completely stunned after realizing that the kid was the protagonist's brother. He never thought that the kid he saved would coincidentally end up being the protagonist's brother.
If that's the case then he had already made a huge change in the plot. In the original plot, his brother ended up in vegetative state after being hit by the car and the protagonist fell into depression after realizing that his brother wasn't going to wake up. Finally, he made his move to handle his abusive father, all the gratitude that existed for letting them live till then vanished. He threw his father in the prison after crippling him and lived as if he was a living dead. He was later healed by the female protagonist whom he had fallen for she helped him to get over his depression.
"You must have been trained, Right ?" Lin Fan immediately asked after seeing that his character was much more amiable after the kid appeared. He thought that the youth must have special training as no one could do such things without any training. Wei Nuan also looked at the youth in excitement and anticipation.
"En" Han Zhuoli looked at them weirdly. Wei Nuan had already gotten the antidote so he was full of energy and he jumped up right after hearing that.
"Then you can join the military too. You have amazing skills." Wei Nuan babbled excitedly about the advantages of joining the military. Lin Fan also nodded agreeing with him. If the military gained such a good seedling it would undoubtedly be very advantageous for them.
Han Zhuoli had a calm look on his face, It was unknown whether he was listening or not.
"Are you sure you want me there?" Han Zhuoli lifted his leg and slammed it on the man who was still kneeling on the ground. "I'm not a good guy and I have a very bad temper."
They would have been convinced if they hadn't seen him blocking the view from the kid.
They didn't know how to reply when they looked at Wei You who was choking and coughing in pain while on the side the youth had covered the little kid's sight with his hands
"Brother Han, What were you doing here ?" Qi Yi curiously stared at Han Zhuoli after he removed his hand and he peeked at the man that was still groaning on the ground.
"Me? I was just playing around" Han Zhuoli answered without a change in his expression. Qi Cheng had a faint smile on his face that would be unnoticed if not looked carefully while the other two men who were treated like air, as usual, we're left with a complicated expression.
"What about them ?" Qi Yi pointed at the men and tilted his head.
"They are also accompanying me for playing" Lin Fan would rather not let him play if his term of playing was such as that. Qi Yi innocently glanced at the man on the ground and concluded that he was also playing with his friend.
"I'm taking him." Han Zhuoli declared without raising his head as he played with his little friend's hair. Qi Cheng glanced at the injured man on the ground and then at the two men who looked constipated after hearing that. He silently sighed in his heart and stared at the youth who was nonchalantly playing with his brother's hair.
"You can't, We have to take him with us." Lin Fan became serious in an instant. He was sent to catch him and take him back to the headquarter. Although he was grateful that the youth saved them, he couldn't let him take the man. He was afraid that it involved the nation's secret, he wasn't informed about it, he was only ordered to take him back to the headquarter alive. It didn't look so simple as it was on the surface so he didn't want to involve the youth.
"Why" Wei Nuan curiously stared at the youth feeling surprised that the nonchalant teenager wanted something from his cousin.
"He touched my father"
Others looked at him with unblinking eyes. They thought that they must have heard wrong but after seeing that the youth didn't open his mouth after saying that they realized that he was serious about it.
Who would have thought that the man that was rolling on the ground in pain who couldn't even stand properly was beaten up just because he had touched someone? Han Zhuoli was really serious when he said that, though he saved his father and caught the spy before they could harm them, one of them struggled difficultly managing to touch his father. He was very angry that someone had managed to touch his father under his eyes.
"Where is that fucking bastard? Let me vent my frustration that has been bottled up this week." Xu Feiqun broke the awkward atmosphere as he shouted cracking his knuckles followed by a group of buff looking men's in black.
Everyone redirected their gaze at him and he obviously grew flustered after seeing that there were so many people along with his boss. He stared at the kid a few times not knowing what a kid was doing there.
Han Zhuoli motioned at the men's toward Wei You and they immediately went forward grabbing him.
"Hey! I told you, kid, you can't take him." Lin Fan shouted at them.
"Right. Listen to him, he is always right." Wei Nuan added stupidly. He didn't know what they were talking about as he was only there to provide a company to his lonesome friend but that didn't stop him from trusting his friend's judgement.
Han Zhuoli didn't answer them and turned around with the others leaving them alone. Lin Fan was usually rational and calm but when he was dealing with the youth before him, he felt like abandoning his rational mind and strangle him.
"Tell major Lin that Han Zhuoli was the one to take him. He will manage it." Han Zhuoli said without looking back but Lin Fan was shocked silly that the youth knew that his grandfather was the one to handle the case, after all, he was commanded by him to get the traitor before he escaped
"Brother Li, Why are they coming with us," Xu Feiqun asked after glancing at the two brothers.
"They are going with us to get their thing back" Han Zhuoli knew where their cheap father was after his little friend said that his father was kept back when he wasn't able to pay back his debt. The two brothers didn't correct him when they heard him addressing their father as a thing.
Xu Feiqun nodded his head in understanding and didn't ask any further.
"Brother, You are so cruel to me. You just came back a few days ago and now you're going to live in the dorm." A koala attached to his dear brother as soon as he entered. After getting along with his brother his relationship with his Father also improved so he came here when he was very bored after knowing that his brother was busy.
"Little Yun, why do you only see your brother. I'm here too you know."
Yu Xingyun harrumphed and turned his head away. Xu Feiqun laughed and flicked his forehead which was immediately slapped away.
Han Zhuoli didn't make any move to get his brother down from him as he moved forward as usual. Qi Cheng watched them astonished while Xu Feiqun walked without glancing at the duo as if it was something that happened every day. Qi Cheng also knew that the boy hanging on his saviour was his stepbrother but he never knew that he was so lenient toward him.
"Little boss is back."
"Ah, The Little boss has returned."
"Little boss, how are you? Are you getting familiar with the place again after leaving the country?"
"How about watching my new improved skills little boss"
" What. The little boss will spar with me, I have improved again when you left us"
"Little boss welcome back"
"Yeah welcome back"
"Feiqun, move a little far away from the little boss. What if you infect him with your stupidity"
Feiqun grinned as he thought that his friend's popularity was as high as usual. It was fine until he heard the last sentence by someone from the crowd. His lips twitched as he ran his intense gaze around the people.
" I'm not stupid. Who the hell said that I'm stupid. You are stupid, your entire family is stupid and your children for eight generations will also be stupid." Xu Feiqun resentfully shouted at the people who were guffawing.
Han Zhuoli interacted with the people without paying attention to the loud fight that was led by Xu Feiqun in a little distance. He had come here to train with them in his long holidays or whenever he felt bored. He had a good relationship with the gang and it could be clearly seen from an outsider's view as they kept welcoming him and chatting with him like an old friend.
Qi Cheng stared at the youth with a focused gaze as he realized that he showed different sides of him at different time. He also got to know that the youth had just come back to the country. He watched as his benefactor kicked his friend and sloppily high-fived a boy next to him before pulling his friend toward them.
"Let's go" Yu Xingyun also went in with them.
They met Xu Lei outside his father's door as he came outside. Xu Lei was surprised seeing them but he quickly composed himself.
" Little boss " Xu Lei nodded toward them and hurriedly went away afraid that it would hold them back from entering the room.
The people looked at him confused but didn't think about it anymore and entered the room. The room looked gloomy as it was dim and the light barely reached inside from the closed window.
"What are you doing here ?" Han Ying cleared his throat and asked as if he wasn't the one to send Xu Lei out after knowing that his son had done him once in a blue moon visit.
"He needs my help, his father has been caught by you after not repaying his debt." Han Zhuoli dragged a chair and sat down while his brother was still glued to his body. He pulled his brother and placed him in his lap, Yu Xingyun blushed and hurriedly got up where he still had the same expression as usual.
Xu Feiqun had already gotten used to his friend's shamelessness when it came to things that he didn't want to invest more time in. Han Ying hadn't paid attention as he was feeling down after knowing that his son didn't come to visit him by his own will but to help someone
"Are you his friend ?" Han Ying dangerously narrowed his eyes at them. Although he usually softened himself when he was in the presence of his son still it couldn't hide his fierce and bold atmosphere around him.
Qi Cheng nodded his head thinking that he would take the time to help them time and again so that would mean they were companions?
Qi Yi hid behind his big brother after nodding too after all he was his first friend, how could he not say that
"Oh"
Qi Cheng stared at the icy man before him waiting for him to say something but the silence was all he got
Han Zhuoli waved his hand at Xu Feiqun knowing that his father had given his permission. Xu Feiqun grumpily went out of the room to inform his father while Qi Cheng was blankly staring at them not knowing where the situation had developed.
"I'm going to live in the dorm from today" Han Zhuoli informed his father carelessly.
Han Ying abruptly stood up scaring them and sat down as nothing happened.
Li slumped down in the chair, tilting his head back and covered his eyes with his arms tiredly. He seriously used to think that his father must have been replaced when he transmigrated. He found the all-time pampering father version instead of the frosty and aloof one depicted in the novel.
He glanced at his sulking father and groaned quietly but a small smile hung on his lips without him knowing that. Qi Cheng was also dumbfounded looking at the obviously sulking man in front of him.
"Brother, look father is also against you living in the dorm. It's better to live with us" Yu Xingyun excitedly shook his brother hoping to change his decision.
" You can live wherever you want." Han Ying immediately straightened his back when his son turned around to him. He wanted to create his image as a majestic figure in his son's heart but the poor man didn't know that the image his son had for him was far from what he wanted.
Although he said that, he looked clearly displeased and his brother looked sad too.
Han Ying got up after he noticed that Xu Feiqun had entered to room."You can come to visit me whenever you want"
The father and son immediately got energetic after getting permission from the youth to visit him.
" Dad is going to get your father here soon. We have something to do so we are going first." Xu Feiqun explained and looked toward his friend to hurry along.
Li ruffled his little friend's hair and nodded to Qi Cheng and followed him out knowing that something was going on or else he wouldn't have hurried him.
Yu Xingyun tried to follow his brother but he stood immobile after noticing that his father was glaring at him. He thought that his father must be cursing at him to get his brother's attention away from him in his heart.
Qi Cheng didn't mind seeing his cheap father as he was feeling quite satisfied and happy meeting the juvenile, He was looking forward to meeting him again
