128 Played

Rong Yue and Qin Yichen got home some hours later with her bag full of everything she needed and Qin Yichen’s hands full of groceries that he felt he would need in the one week that she was staying here.

He made a mental note to call Rong Xia and explain to her about Rong Yue’s stay here later tonight. Although the mother and daughter spent a lot of time together and had a great bond, Rong Yue was not a wordy person and he was sure that for something like this, she would only explain that she was going to spend more time here.

As soon as he got to the front of the door, Qin Yichen paused as he called out to Rong Yue in a low voice, “Yue’er, my little brother is home you don’t mind right?”

Even though his tone was warm and calm, his eyes that looked over to the mansion beside him, the one that Mo Fan stayed in was flashing with a glint of anger.

That little brat! He didn’t even know how to keep a young boy in his home.

Rong Yue shrugged and continued to move forward, “it’s okay, didn’t you tell me more people would be joining us later?” She didn’t mind if there were one or two more people. As long as she could stay in her room and work, that was all that mattered.

Qin Yichen nodded and then increased his strides so he could enter first.

The door was unlocked, just like he had guessed. Even though Qin Heng hadn’t entered from the front door. He wasn’t surprised to see that the little lass had left the door open just so he could know he was here already.

When they entered, Qin Heng was seated on one of the high seats by the mini bar in the living room while his short legs dangled in rhythm.

…..

He said no word, his eyes fixed and taking in the little movement behind Qin Yichen’s back as he tried to see who it was.

Rong Yue looked up, upon getting that intense feeling of being watched and her eyes met with Qin Heng’s gaze.

Her eyes flashed with surprise at the mature feeling in his eyes as he stared at her. It was almost like he was assessing her carefully, Hi,” she greeted with a little wave and without any waste of time walked up to her room to get started on her work.

She had a time limit that she had given herself for the project. Now that she had all those hardwares, she could finish in a day and get started on the game demo that she wanted to build.

After she left the living room, Qin Heng finally jumped down from the bar chair and looked at his brother with his most innocent look.

“Welcome, second brother,” he said reluctantly and his mouth formed into a tight pout.

“You know you are not wanted and still dare to stay, where’s your shame as a man and the third young master of my Qin family?” Qin Yichen berated sharply, not holding back one bit.

While he was surprised at how easily he had defeated Mo Fan and even entered the house, he was more concerned about his brother staying where he wasn’t wanted.

He wasn’t raising a man that would stay where he was unwanted. At this point of course, the big boss had forgotten that he was wrapped around his little wife’s hands and was constantly wanting her attention even when she didn’t want to give it.

“Ah! Not wanted? How do I not know? All I did was get down and enter my second brother’s home, does brother not want me now that you have a little wife?”

His voice was clear and sounded like he was truly surprised to hear that he wasn’t wanted.

“Now that brother has talked to this point, I really cannot stay here and must call mother and father quick,” he said, looking back to see Qin Yichen’s reaction as he walked to the landline that was just by the corner.

“Mother has been hoping that one of the two of you would bring a girl home, if she knows that all her trips to those temples and monks have finally yelled fruits, I’m sure that she would not waste time in coming to take me back,”

He walked as he talked, moving closer to the telephone and would also occasionally use his side eyes to check if his brother was reacting to his taunt.

It was like the two brothers were playing a game. While Qin Heng was betting on his brother not wanting their parents to know that he was keeping a little girl in his house, after all, his mother was a master at intruding.

Instead of coming to pick him up, she would instead get some of her stuffs here and instantly come and live with them!

But Qin Yichen also knew that this little brother adored silence the most. He preferred to only talk when he wanted to and not when he was being made to.

That alone was a sharp contrast from their mother’s personality and since he was still too young to handle her, he would cause mischief a lot of times until she finally sent him here himself.

Would the boy then dare to call her over himself?

“When she comes, Mo Fan would bring your luggage over and send you over with her,” Qin Yichen said as he started to walk forward, acting like he didn’t care one bit about what he did.

“Also, it’s good that you know not to stay where you are not wanted, it’s how to make sure your value never goes down,” he added as he got to the foot of the stair case.

He didn’t have to look back to know that his brother was most certainly clenching his fists tightly in anger.

Instead, the big boss acted like nothing was important and directly went upstairs!

Qin Heng watched as his brother went upstairs with anger in his eyes.

How could he totally treat him like this!

In truth, his major reaction was that he had been unable to win over his brother this time around again!

Earlier, after looking around the house, he had noticed that two sets of dishes had been used regularly and his brother had also cooked more often. He then went back and checked the rooms more carefully again.

Previously, because of how Rong Yue stayed in the room, it was hard to see her presence and all she had done was pack her things back carefully into her small luggage box.

But now that the little master was on a mission, he didn’t even spare the bathrooms of any room and eventually found her room by seeing the women products in the bathroom.

Although he was surprised that there was really a girl staying here, he also felt that it made a lot of sense, if this was a woman that his brother cared about, she wouldn’t want him around as they developed their love.

There was also chances that it wasn’t a romantic relationship and was just some acquaintance that he was really close to.

But either way, the little master had dared to gamble because he knew that his brother was someone that hardly allowed someone to come close.

If there was someone close enough to be here and sleep here, she was definitely important enough!

So instead of playing tricks, he had decided to play his second brother this time around. In truth, he has already disconnected the land line, hoping that even if he had to start pressing the number for his brother to believe, it wouldn’t connect.

Who would have thought that his brother didn’t fall for his blurb and directly went upstairs!

He felt like he had worked so hard only to hit a cotton ball.

It was really painful, ah!

The more he thought, the more annoyed and dissatisfied he was.

Eventually, he went to able to get his emotions under control and went to the room that he usually stayed in when he was here.

But his mind was also on the girl he had seen earlier when he came.

With how she looked, wasn’t she too young for his brother?

The more he thought, the more confused he was and when he could not hold his curiosity in anymore, he rushed back downstairs and connected the landline.

After ringing twice, he was able to connect to Mo Fan.

“Big boss!” Mo Fan cried out in fear thinking that his retribution had finally arrived.

He had heard when the car pulled up and was already dying even before the call came through.

“Who’s the woman with my second brother? If you tell me the truth, I would try not to tell him how easy it was for me to trick you and come here,” Qin Heng said slowly.

His voice was just as low as that of Qin Yichen with a little tinge of childish speech falling through.

But that childish trace in it was the major reason why Mo Fan knew for certain that if Qin Yichen knew how he was played at the little master’s hands, surely, hw would be sent out of the country first thing in the morning!
