"Tang Jianjun lay on the heated brick bed, staring at Tang Chuxia with a face full of grievance."
"Big brother, stop looking at like that. Who asked you to act like you lost your mind just now?" Tang Chuxia couldn’t help but remind him while holding back laughter.
Tang Jianjun snorted coldly, "I was excited. Can’t you see that?"
He grimaced as he sucked in a breath of cool air. Who else would still get spanked with a shoe by their own mother at his age?
Madam Tang scolded from the side, "You little scoundrel, was that excitent? You nearly scared your sister to death!"
Tang Chuxia nodded in agreent, Exactly, exactly!
Tang Jianjun chuckled, "Mom, I was just excited!"
He had been at the research unit, and when he took out Tang Chuxia’s drawings, those usually snobbish guys turned into eager huskies, circling around him.
People who usually wouldn’t even spare him a glance were treating him like they’d worship their ancestors.
The more thrilled Tang Jianjun was, the more he admired Tang Chuxia.
Just how did his sister manage to be so amazing?
No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t figure it out.
Just to see Tang Chuxia casually sketch a few strokes, and those big shots would go nuts.
Later, they kept pulling him aside to ask various questions. How would he know?
It was all Tang Chuxia’s doing.
Tang Jianjun went from being adored to despised, and finally, they kept urging him daily to bring Tang Chuxia over. Annoyed to no end, Tang Jianjun couldn’t take it anymore and ran back ho.
With the New Year approaching, he would have to return to the military after the celebrations. Seeing Tang Chuxia leisurely eating poached pears made him feel utterly depressed.
They were both children of the Tang family, so why was Tang Chuxia’s brain so different from his?
However, the grievance Tang Jianjun felt was sothing Tang Chuxia couldn’t sense; she was pondering another issue, how to hoodwink Gu Beihuai.
Previously, she had really upset Gu Beihuai.
Now she was sowhat worried whether Gu Beihuai would take her words seriously.
"Big brother, are you really not going to see your goddess tomorrow?" Tang Chuxia casually asked, and Tang Jianjun suddenly beca coy.
"Don’t talk nonsense. I don’t have any goddess!"
Tang Chuxia wasn’t happy with Tang Jianjun’s denial. Back at the hospital, her dear big brother had been embracing Bai Yingyue with great excitent.
How co he denied it now?
Could it be...
Did he get tired of her after winning her over?
Tang Chuxia’s disdainful look annoyed Tang Jianjun: "What’s with that look? I really don’t have one!"
Tang Chuxia coughed lightly, "Bai Yingyue..."
She hadn’t finished her sentence when Tang Jianjun waved his hand, "Don’t talk nonsense. She’s my idol; how could I visit her every day?"
Tang Jianjun asked her, "Do you know where an idol should be placed?" Tang Chuxia didn’t know, and shook her head at him, "Put up high!"
Tang Chuxia almost burst out laughing while their third sister-in-law, who was watching the drama unfold, asked, "Bai Yingyue? That actress?"
Tang Chuxia nodded vigorously.
Others might not understand, but the about-to-be third sister-in-law definitely knew sothing about Bai Yingyue, considering her status over there.
The future third sister-in-law thought for a mont and then said, "If I rember correctly, recently the Bai Family has been looking for a match for Bai Yingyue!"
Tang Jianjun suddenly turned his head to look at the third sister-in-law, "When? How old is she? Why would she get married now?"
The future third sister-in-law pondered for a mont, her eyes suddenly brightened, "I rember that the Bai Family really liked Gu Beihuai, they planned to have Bai Yingyue marry Gu Beihuai!"
Tang Chuxia hurriedly spoke up, "Gu Beihuai won’t do, how could he be worthy of Bai Yingyue!"
Tang Jianjun also shouted, "Right, how could Huai, that stinky kid, be worthy of Bai Yingyue?"
The future third sister-in-law looked at Tang Chuxia with aningful eyes. Tang Chuxia pretended not to notice, figuring as long as she didn’t say anything, no one could force anything on her.
Only Tang Jianjun kept grumbling.
The elder sister-in-law asked curiously, "If the younger brother-in-law doesn’t like Bai Yingyue as a daughter-in-law, could it be he has taken a liking to Zhizhi?"
Tang Jianjun imdiately waved his hands, "Are you kidding internationally, and Gu Nanzhi? Am I stuffed or sothing? Or do I have so illness? That girl is definitely not my type!"
It was clear, he really didn’t like her.
Tang Chuxia also explained, "Elder sister-in-law, you don’t know, my cousin likes Zhizhi!"
The elder sister-in-law was surprised, Tang Jianjun was also surprised, "Zheng Duoqing?"
Tang Chuxia nodded, Tang Jianjun looked incredulous, "Is he out of his mind?"
Madam Tang slapped Tang Jianjun’s back, "It’s you who are out of your mind, what are you saying?"
Zheng Duoqing’s appearance was much better than Tang Jianjun’s, more favored by young girls; with Tang Jianjun’s mouth, he probably would never be able to find a wife in his lifeti.
"Look at you, even Little Four has found soone, only you are still single; aren’t you ashad?"
Madam Tang poked Tang Jianjun’s back in accusation, and Tang Jianjun yelped and ran to the side, "Mom, what are you talking about? How am I shaful? I’m a military man, responding to the national call, delaying marriage and childbirth, don’t you understand?"
Madam Tang scolded, "Don’t give that, delayed marriage and childbirth ans you need to have a wife first, but where is your wife?"
Tang Jianjun: ...
Indeed, he had none.
He suddenly saw Tang Chuxia and imdiately cheered up, running over to her and putting his arm around her shoulder, "Mom, look, my little sister doesn’t have a partner either, it’s not just in our family, you can’t be partial!"
Tang Chuxia rolled her eyes at him, wanting to say ’big brother is shaless’, but Madam Tang clapped her hands, delighted, the wrinkles on her face deepening.
"There, it’s settled then! Your sister actually does have soone! You, the old bachelor, have no one to keep you company!"
While Madam Tang teased her son, Tang Jianjun’s eyes widened, disbelieving what he had just heard, he stared at Tang Chuxia, "This isn’t real?"
Previously, Tang Chuxia’s engagent to Hu Mingcheng was out of necessity, arranged by the elders; they couldn’t say much. But now Tang Chuxia was free, how could she already have soone?
Tang Jianjun was incredulous, his pleading gaze turned to Tang Jianbing; though Tang Jianbing wanted to help his older brother, the assured appearances of Madam Tang and Mrs. Gu kept him from shaking his head.
Seeing even his younger brother wouldn’t deny it, Tang Jianjun scread, grabbing Tang Chuxia’s shoulders, "Little sister, this can’t be real; how old are you? Why are you rashly thinking of marrying? Don’t you know that no man is good news?"
Tang Chuxia reminded him, "Give an example!"
Tang Jianjun imdiately pointed at Father Tang, who was acting as a quail on the side, "Our dad, the kind of man who makes no difference whether he’s there or not, crucially useless and still full of sches. Marrying such a man would just make you another version of our mom."
Father Tang took off a shoe to hit his son, but Tang Jianjun dodged.
Tang Jianjun, in his endeavor to convince Tang Chuxia to give up on marrying early, pointed at his elder brother-in-law, "Then look at the big brother, he’s even worse than our dad!"
While Tang Jianjun got carried away speaking, a faint voice erged from the doorway, "Second brother, say that again!!!"
