Love So Sweet

253 My Little Brother is at Home

Zhang Li Xue stared at her brother for a long time, unable to react.

She recalled that her brother was supposed to return a few days before their great-grandfather’s death anniversary. But now that he was in the living room, Zhang Li Xue had a sense of panic.

“Why did you look at me like that?” Zhang Yi Hai asked. “Are you that surprise to see me?”

Zhang Li Xue coughed. “Un. You didn’t say that you are coming home.”

“Hmm... I have to attend an event. A former classmate is getting engaged. It was a bit sudden too.” Zhang Yi Hai gradually looked away to reply to a message. Then, he looked at his sister again. “Sister, why are you home this late?”

“I had dinner with Su Jin.”

At this time, Zhang Li Xue did not know whether it was a good thing that Bai Qi was busy at the hospital. Otherwise, she might come home later and her brother would suspect something.

Other than her father, Zhang Li Xue was also worried about her little brother’s reaction once he heard that she was dating Bai Qi.

Zhang Li Xue was most afraid that her brother was going to bully her Doctor Bai.

.....

Her father might be a little fierce, but as the daughter, Zhang Li Xue knew that she could coax her father well. As for Zhang Yi Hai, it would be a bit hard to convince him.

On the side, Zhang Yi Hai’s expression changed slightly when he heard that name. He could still remember the last time he saw Fang Su Jin. The last time they met, they did not part in a good way. Something happened and his father had misunderstood their relationship.

Zhang Yi Hai always felt guilty about it. After all, Fang Su Jin was a girl and it would definitely hurt her reputation.

Fortunately, that matter only stayed in Capital City. Fang Su Jin’s parents also did not know anything about it.

Zhang Yi Hai wanted to ask his sister about Fang Su Jin. However, the moment he opened his mouth, he could not utter a word. In the end, he could only lower his head again.

“Then, are you staying until great-grandpa’s death anniversary?” Zhang Li Xue asked.

“No. I’ll head back to Capital City after the ceremony. Then, I’ll come back before that day.”

Zhang Li Xue let out a breath of relief.

With her brother around, she would be too worried about going on a date with Bai Qi. The anxiety that her little brother might find out about their relationship would drive her crazy.

It seemed that she would have to lay low and wait for her brother to return to Capital City again.

The phone in her bag chimed.

Zhang Li Xue’s eyes lit up when she saw the message from Bai Qi. Before her brother would notice anything, Zhang Li Xue excused herself and headed upstairs.

When she arrived in her room, Zhang Li Xue quickly dialed a number and soon, Bai Qi’s tired face appeared on the screen.

“Li Xue, you’re at home?” Bai Qi asked. He noticed her surroundings and knew that she was in her room.

“Un. Just arrived a few minutes ago.” She stretched her hand and touched the man’s face on the screen. “How’s the operation? Is it going well?”

“There are some issues but fortunately, it went well,” Bai Qi said with a sigh. “Now, we only have to wait for the patient to wake up.”

Zhang Li Xue heaved a sigh. She wanted to go over and accompany her Doctor Bai, but it would be hard to go out again.

“I received your takeaway box,” Bai Qi spoke. “Thank you. Mmm... The others also wanted me to thank you for the meal. Nurse Tian said, now that we are dating, she gets to eat delicious food once in a while.”

Zhang Li Xue laughed. “Then, you have to remember to eat more to replenish your energy.”

“You went to a vegetarian restaurant with Fang Su Jin?”

Zhang Li Xue laughed. “Un. She wanted to bully me a little bit. But don’t worry. I finished the food and did not leave any wastage.”

“Good girl.” Bai Qi flashed a smile. “Next time, I will make you some chicken wings. Which flavor do you want to eat?”

“Anything is fine, as long as it is something that you cook for me.” Now that she thought of it, it has been a while since Bai Qi had made some chicken wings.

Just imagining that garlic and soy flavored that Bai Qi had prepared for her in the past was enough to make her drool.

“I don’t have to work the night shift tomorrow,” Bai Qi said. “Do you want to come over to my apartment for dinner? What else do you want to cook? I’ll make it for you.”

Zhang Li Xue was about to answer him with a yes when she recalled a troublesome person downstairs. “Tomorrow might be a little difficult.”

“You already have a plan?”

Zhang Li Xue hesitated. “No. Just that, my little brother is at home. Don’t get me wrong. I wanted to formally introduce you to him, but I’m just a little worried about his reaction. My little brother... he can be a bit over-protecting.”

Bai Qi smiled. He knew that there were a lot of people who cared for his little fairy. It’s good that everyone was protecting her well.

But it made him wonder just what kind of person is Zhang Yi Hai. In the past, Fang Su Jin had also reminded him to be careful of Zhang Yi Hai.

He had met Zhang Yi Hai before but, Bai Qi did not think that the boy is such a scary person.

“Li Xue, are you worried that I might get bullied?” Bai Qi asked.

Zhang Li Xue lowered her gaze. “Un.”

Bai Qi chuckled. “I already met your uncles and aunts,” Bai Qi spoke. “I won’t be afraid of meeting your brother. Don’t you trust me?”

Zhang Li Xue was still worried. But she knew that she could not hide forever. She liked Bai Qi too much. She wanted to be with him in the open without worrying too much.

“Then, how about inviting your little brother for a meal tomorrow?”
