Qi Yusen's arm froze and his lips shut.
Qiao Qing remained where she was. She wasn't sure if she was hallucinating, but she felt like Qi Yusen got nervous after she asked him that question.
Just as she pondered over it, she felt her head being squeezed as she was being dragged into a warm embrace.
Qi Yusen's hug was not mixed with any impure emotions. His voice was shaking just a teeny tiny bit.
"Can you not ask that question and just stay by my side? I can fulfill any one of your wishes. I can spoil the heck out of you!"
He never planned on hiding this from her for too long, but he didn't expect her to be smart enough to guess it right away.
Qiao Qing paused. Though she didn't know the truth, she had a pretty good idea.
She sighed and patted his back, "Don't worry. I have dealt with troublesome aunts and uncles."
Qi Yusen's eyes brightened.
Qiao Qing continued, "Also, thank you."
"I thought I told you, you don't need to thank me anymore?" Qi Yusen let her go and cupped her face, "If you want to thank me, then call me 'brother'."
Qiao Qing, "..."
Just then, Qi Yusen's assistant, Cheng Tianyu, walked over, "Young master."
Then, he looked over to Qiao Qing.
Qiao Qing recognized the situation and said, "I'll go read a little in the library."
Qi Yusen was about to tell her that wasn't necessary when Qiao Qing walked away.
Qi Yusen glanced at Cheng Tianyu, "If you have anything to say, you don't need to worry about Qingqing."
Cheng Tianyu started to sweat, "But, young master, this is about her family history."
Qi Yusen paused, "What is it?"
Cheng Tianyu said, "Jing Sect Leader Feng Heng is investigating her and her family. Particularly her mother."
Qi Yusen's gaze froze a little, "Cover it up. Let him investigate!"
Cheng Tianyu, "Yes, sir."
Then, he said, "Young master, our international meeting is scheduled for 3:30 pm today..."
"Push it back. Push everything on the agenda today back. Today, my entire day's Qingqing's."
Cheng Tianyu wiped away his sweat, "Yes, sir."
Qi Yusen was about to go find Qiao Qing in the library when Ning Ye rushed over in a hurry, "Young master, third young master Jun is here!"
Qi Yusen didn't show any signs of dissatisfaction, "So what he's here. Why are you flustered?"
Ning Ye gulped, "He's not just here to visit. He brought his luggage!"
"WHAT?!" Qi Yusen's brows shot up. He circled around and headed to the staircase.
The moment he went downstairs, he saw Jun Yexuan walking up the stairs with luggage. His face turned dark right away.
"What are you doing?!"
Jun Yexuan smiled and walked up to him, "Brother, can you leave me the room next to Qingqing's? From today on, I will live here."
When Ning Ye heard Jun Yexuan's words, his lips twitched.
Qi Yusen's face turned completely black, "In your dreams!"
Jun Yexuan made a noise, "Brother, as you know, when I'm shameless, there's nothing you can do. As long as Qingqing is here, I will stay here."
"The biggest step back I am willing to take is to let her stay here. Other than that, I am not afraid to play tricks with you. Even though you are her brother, I am not afraid to steal her away from you."
Qi Yusen's face tightened, "Jun Yexuan!"
Jun Yexuan ignored his complaint and continued, "I have stayed with her for several months now and I know all her likes and dislikes. Her health isn't the absolute best but she never asks anyone for anything. It took me a long time to get her to start taking care of herself. I am not going to walk away right now when you still need to take the time to get to know her habits."
Qi Yusen's brows lifted, "What's wrong with her health?"
Jun Yexuan waved his index finger, "I'm not going to tell you."
