Jian rapidly blinked at her, completely aghast. "W-what? I am not-"
"Shut up! Apologize to your grandfather right now! I won't tolerate such harsh behavior. So what if he forgot your gift? He is also human. You have no right to disrespect him like that!" Xing Bi exclaid in defiance.
Silence.
Then Liu Hai burst into tears out of nowhere. "Yes, yes! Tell this brat. He disrespects and humiliates so much," he sniffled. "I always suffer at the hands of my grandson…"
This bubbled her anger even more. Liu Hai's shoulders drooped with helplessness as if he beca a ball. At that mont, he perfectly looked like an elderly person ignored and chastised by his family.
Jian felt a looming death threat from Xing Bi's eyes. "Hey, hey, we can talk about this, okay? First of all, I am not who you are thinking to be-"
"Silence!"
"..."
Nian, who was desperately searching for Xing Bi, finally found her. But the scene before him dumbfounded him.
Ah? Why is she scolding Jian?
He didn't know. He didn't care.
Because it was amusing to see Xing Bi scolding his twin. As a brother, he just found it to be entertaining so he hid behind a pillar and watched the show.
,m Xing Bi said, "Your grandfather just forgot your gift. What's the big deal in that? Everybody forgets things once in a while. That doesn't an you get to talk to him like this!"
Liu Hai furiously bobbed his head up and down while simultaneously wiping his 'tears.'
"It's all because of children and grandchildren like you that elderly people are forced to leave ho! Don't you have any sha? He must have raised you so lovingly and dotingly."
Jian and Nian - "....."
L-Lovingly?
D-Dotingly?
When?
The only thing I rember is this old man stealing my food every single ti!
Xing Bi twisted his ear further. "Now apologize!"
She glanced at Liu Hai with concern and softly assured him. "Don't worry. I will set this man straight tonight so that he won't ever have the guts to disrespect you again!"
Liu Hai was over the moon. His eyes sparkled like a child. "You are the best, my dear!"
Nian smirked with pride.
Of course she is. She is Xing Bi after all!
Jian couldn't bear this injustice anymore. "Hey I am not going to apologize to an old man who obviously did this on purpose!"
Liu Hai looked even more pitiful with more tears filling his eyes. "W-why would I do it on purpose…?"
Jian's jaw dropped.
That fucking acting as if he is so innocent!!
Which only irked Xing Bi further. "Liu Nian! That's it! You dare try to woo by hiding this hideous and cruel side of yours? It was a mistake giving you any chance! I didn't know you were so pathetic!"
Nian's balance stumbled off the pillar. He stared at Xing Bi in horror.
He didn't care about Jian getting scolded before.
But NOW he did because apparently, Xing Bi was scolding 'Nian.'
The hell! She thought he was all this ti!?
His love life was on the line now.
Xing Bi was ruthless. "Thank you for showing your true side to tonight. At least I now know not to waste my ti over you!"
"Nooooo!!! Don't say that, my Xing Bi! Your future husband is here, not there!" Nian ca crying and grabbed her hand. "Don't say that you will leave . How will my fragile heart be able to bear this separation from you?"
"..."
Xing Bi gave Nian a long and a hard stare. Then she slowly turned her gaze towards Jian whose ear she was rcilessly twisting.
She looked at Nian. Then she looked at Jian once again. They looked exactly the sa.
This repeated a few more tis.
Then her mind flashed with the mory of Jun telling her once that Nian had a twin brother. She had even exclaid her shock over that.
'There is another one like him? One wasn't enough!?'
"...You are Liu…Jian?" She ever so slowly asked.
"Yes!" Jian finally got to clear the misunderstanding.
Now that she thought about it, Jian's clothes were indeed different from what Nian was wearing. Nian wore a red shirt with black coat while Jian wore a cream shirt. But she was too focused on his face that she missed the color of the shirts was different.
"..."
Then only one word echoed in her mind after this realization.
Shit!!!
Xing Bi quickly let his ear go and tried to smile while hiding her tears. "Haha…hahaha…You two really look the sa, don't you?"
"..."
Jian, who suffered this pain needlessly, didn't know what to say.
At that mont, Xing Bi had never felt so embarrassed before. She mistook Jian for Nian, twisted his ear and even scolded him so harshly.
Wait a minute…
Xing Bi blinked at Liu Hai. "You heard saying Nian's na, didn't you? Why didn't you say anything about it?"
Liu Hai - "..."
Her misunderstanding was so amusing and entertaining that I thoroughly wanted to enjoy it but I cannot tell her that, can I? Or she will rip off my ear next!
The twins sneered.
Yeah, tell her. What excuse do you have to give her now?
Liu Hai hastily looked confused. "I-Is that so? Well their nas are also so similar. I didn't quite catch the N instead of J…"
The twins - "..."
This shitty grandpa! Do you have any conscience when you lie through your teeth!
But my Xing Bi won't definitely fall for it! Nian was sure.
"Oh! Yeah, I get it. It's easy to hear the wrong na when it's so rhyming. I understand."
"..."
You fell for that!?
Liu Hai bead. "I know, right!? You understand ! I like you! Yup, I like you very much!"
"Th-thank you Grandpa…" Xing Bi felt shy.
"Are you single?"
"Yes…?"
"Then will you date my grandson? Even though Nian is an idiot, he has a few redeeming qualities of himself. He will definitely keep you happy! So, so! Please date my grandson and beco my granddaughter-in-law!" He chirped.
"..."
Xing Bi was blinded with the shine of Nian's wide grin.
"Grandpa, you always act so useless most of the ti but now I feel like I love you so much!" He jumped to hug him.
"How dare you say I am useless!"
Xing Bi stared at the trio in a stupor.
Huh? Wasn't Grandpa so helpless and pitiful before? How did his character change so much!?
Just what the hell is with this family…
