Chapter 300: Chapter 301 Chu Yuan Is Being Unreasonable

The police wanted to use me, but I also needed protection from the police. But asking Dong Xiaoye to protect me… It would put her in danger as well.

Just when I wanted to propose that the police should replace Dong Xiaoye with another person, Chu Yuan suddenly grabbed Dong Xiaoye’s hands and said nervously, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, please take good care of my elder brother, you must protect my elder brother.”

‘Why does it sound so awkward?’ I couldn’t help but think to myself. The way Chu Yuan said it was like a mother who was entrusting her daughter to her son-in-law during the marriage ceremony.

“Elder Brother Nan, don’t tell me that you want to reject police protection?” Seeing that I wanted to speak, Dongfang Lianren cut me off, walked up to me, and looked at me mockingly. Then all of sudden, she stretched out her hand and patted my thigh. She just happened to hit my wound. It was so painful that my body curled up instinctively.

“You little brat! Do you want me to spank you?”

“Spank me? With just a light touch, you could hurt like that, how are you going to spank me?” Dongfang little brat rolled her eyes at me and then said to Dong Xiaoye, “Elder Sister Xiaoye, please, I’m begging you as well. I know you don’t like to be Elder Brother Chu’s girlfriend, but can you please do it just this time? Please stop Elder Brother Nan from making the foolish decision. I didn’t see what exactly happened in Crouching Dragon Mountain Resort personally but just based on what I heard from Yuan Yuan alone, I already felt that it was very scary. If the same thing happened again, I’m afraid that someone would lose her mind…”

‘Who would lose her mind?’ Dongfang said this while looking at me, but clearly, the person she said that would lose mind was not me.

“Fine. For the sake of Yuan Yuan and Little Dongfang, I will do it this time. Anyway, even if I didn’t want to do it, my captain would not allow it.” Then what Dong Xiaoye said next completely shocked me, “I will let you prepare it this afternoon, I will be staying here overnight.”

“What? Overnight? ! Where?!”

“Of course it’s our flat,” Chu Yuan shook Dong Xiaoye’s hands and said to me sulkily, “Otherwise, how is she going to protect you?”

Unexpectedly, Chu Yuan and Dongfang were not surprised by this. Instead, they had expressions as if this was a matter of course. Dongfang chuckled mockingly and asked, “Elder Brother Nan, since she is now your girlfriend, of course, it’s normal for you two to live together. Are you pretending to be dumb or you are really that conservative?”

‘Is this true? Are men and women so unconstrained nowadays? Why have I never heard of it?’ I couldn’t help but wonder if I had really been disconnected from the young people’s world nowadays.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Dong Xiaoye’s face was red as blood. She pinched the delicate face of Dongfang Lianren embarrassedly and said, “you are still kids, but your thoughts are so dirty. Besides, who said that once two people started a relationship, they would have to live with each other? The only people that are living together are committed to their relationship. But the reason why I am staying over tonight is not that. Today is Friday, so if I stay over tonight, some people will let their guard down. Do you understand it now?”

Maybe I was really conservative, I actually thought that what Dong Xiaoye said made a lot of sense.

. . .

After the so-called democratic vote, I got the right to sleep on the sofa by a vote of three to one… The sofa was no longer damp, but with the disappearance of this supernatural phenomenon, I also seemed to have lost interest to find out the answer to this supernatural phenomenon; or maybe, it was much more correct to say that I had lost the courage to seek the answer.

Perhaps, it was the first time for Dong Xiaoye to stay in a man’s flat. Even though there were two other little girls, Dongfang Lianren and Chu Yuan, Dong Xiaoye still felt very nervous. Trying to calm her down, I told her that she could think of it as working the night shift at the police station; although I was not her colleague, I was also not an animal, I would not do anything to her. However, she insisted saying that it was different from working at the station. She said that when she worked in the station, she was a police officer, no one would treat her as a woman.

When I heard this, I told her that I also didn’t treat her as a woman, but what I got in response was her fist; it was quite painful. Then she told me that she wanted to go home to get some clothes first. She just needed to stay for one night, what kind of clothes could she possibly need. I was curious, so I asked her. However, the way she answered me was to kick me on my shin, which was even more painful.

God knew why she would blush and get angry. I really didn’t understand the thoughts of women, but I understood the thoughts of little girls very well. Dongfang little brat was so weak that her legs would even tremble when she was just standing, but she actually volunteered to go with Dong Xiaoye and help her to carry her clothes.

It was just a few pieces of clothes, why did she think that Dong Xiaoye would need her help? Moreover, she was very weak. Could she even help with anything? She might even become Dong Xiaoye’s burden. But whether it was me, Dong Xiaoye, or even Chu Yuan, we all knew that Dongfang Lianren clearly wanted to avoid me!

Clearly, she wanted to stay at my flat, but she didn’t want to give me a reasonable explanation. Did she think she could have everything her way?

Dong Xiaoye would not be fooled by her. She tactfully declined Dongfang Lianren’s “good intentions” and left her. I understood why Sister Tiger also wanted to let her stay with me. Compared to her identity as a police officer, it was easier for me to get the information, such as who that Zhen Nuo was, out of Dongfang’s mouth.

“Elder Brother, you look very scary. Can’t you relax a bit? You make Dongfang feel very nervous!”

I almost spat out the hot tea from my mouth, “I am just drinking tea, how am I scary?”

I didn’t know why the Dongfang Lianren who had been “abandoned” by Dong Xiaoye had to act like a little criminal whose plan had been exposed. She was standing in front of me, lowering her head in guilt. But I really hadn’t said anything to her yet. I simply straightened my legs and leaned back on the sofa in a comfortable position. Probably I had walked too long today, the wound on my leg began to ache again. “You think I look scary when I sit on the sofa like this?”

Chu Yuan sat on my right side, her little butt barely touched the edge of the sofa. It was as if as long as I moved slightly, she would immediately run away. She was obviously unhappy when she heard what I said. “We all know that you have a lot of questions. You can just ask us. Why do you have to pretend to drink tea calmly? Are you trying to make us feel nervous?”

“Making you feel nervous?” I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What kind of nonsense is this? Can I not just drink tea?”

Chu Yuan snorted sulkily and said, “of course you can. But if you want to drink tea, can’t you drink normally? Why do you have to drink it slowly? You are clearly trying to give us pressure by deliberately creating a silent atmosphere!”

I chuckled, flicked Chu Yuan’s forehead, and said, “whether I have questions to ask you two or not, we can discuss that later. Let’s first talk about this tea. It was you who made the tea and gave me the tea, right? Would you be happy if I didn’t drink it immediately? Probably you would only think that I was angry at you, right? Also, why did I have to drink it slowly? Again, it was you who made the tea, right? So do you not know how hot the tea is? Or do you want to kill your elder brother by burning me to death using tea?”

Chu Yuan looked at the steaming teacup in my hand, and looked down at the purple clay pot in her hand, her face blushed, and Dongfang Lianren also showed a realized expression.

I slowly put the teacup back on the tea table, glanced at the two little girls, and said in a sarcastic tone, “to me, it sounds like, you have done something bad, and you are feeling nervous because you think I might know about it.”

She slowly raised her head in relief, but the moment our eyes met, she subconsciously lowered her head to avoid eye contact. In terms of Chu Yuan, she pretended to be confused, and said, “no, I don’t know what you are saying. Since you have no questions to ask us, then Dongfang, let’s go to my room…”

“Wait.” I only said one word, but it was like two steel nails that nailed the little feet of Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren to the ground. It instantly made them stop.

Chu Yuan, who was about to drag Dongfang Lianren back to her room, turned around, and said sulkily, “Elder Brother, what exactly do you want? Didn’t you say that you have no questions?”

“Don’t put words in my mouth,” I chuckled, “did I say that I don’t have questions to ask you?”

Chu Yuan looked at the silent Dongfang Lianren, and then suddenly looked back at me fiercely like a raging little tiger, and said viciously to me, “ask! Go ahead! Ask all the questions you want! It’s not like it will kill me anyway! ! Do you know why you still can’t find a girlfriend? It is because you are as stupid as a pig! And your eyes are blind. Humph! Can’t you see that Dongfang is in a bad mood now? Is it interesting to bother a girl with all kinds of questions when she is not happy? ! Why are you much nosier than the auntie who sells vegetables downstairs? !”
