In order to prevent the two from fighting again, Tai Feng separated the two and questioned them separately.
However, both of them were quite uncooperative. Ying Qiao crossed his arms, his face three times colder than frost and snow: “How should I know why he started fighting me? He just got mad and started biting me like a mad dog first? Am I supposed to stand there and let him bite me?”
He raised his lips and sneered: “Do I look like a fool to you?”
“…”
Tai Feng was defeated and had to ask Bi’an.
The wound under Bi’an’s eye was still stained with blood, and his eyes were gloomy and ferocious: “He knows what he did. Tell him to wait for me, I won’t let him go!”
“What’s the grudge between you two? If you don’t tell us, we won’t know the situation and can’t make any hasty judgment.” Tai Feng felt dizzy and was really impressed by these two people.
But Bi’an refused to say anything. He just bit Ying Long to death and said, “He did something shameless. If he had the nerve to do it, why doesn’t he have the nerve to say it? Go ask him.”
“…”
Tai Feng was also angered because they were both so difficult to deal with. So, he pressed the blue veins on his forehead and smiled with gritted teeth: “In that case, whoever starts the trouble will be responsible and should pay the fine first. The points on your ID card have been deducted. If there is a next time…”
Tai Feng’s face darkened: “You should just go to the deep mountains and forests and stay there for ten years. Come back when you have fought enough.”
Hearing this, Bi’an and Ying Qiao glared at each other and then turned their heads away.
The two men paid the fine honestly, and the rest of the cleanup and public relations were left to the bureau.
Bi’an left the Monster Management Bureau with a lot of anger. After hesitating for a while, he finally called his eldest brother.
He had originally planned to deal with Ying Long by himself, but it was obvious that Ying Long was not that easy to deal with, so he could only ask his eldest brother to help him think of a solution.
After the whole story was explained on the phone, Bixi remained silent for five minutes. And when he spoke again, his tone was much heavier: “You are too reckless.”
“Let’s not talk about whether Ying Long is so easy to deal with. Even if you can deal with Ying Long, have you ever thought about what Old Five[1] will think when he finds out?” Bixi said in a low voice, “Old Five is really moved this time. We are not telling him about this matter. If he finds out, he might blame us. It will affect the relationship between brothers.”
“…”
Bi’an was speechless for a moment. It’s not that he hadn’t thought of this, but when he thought about the fact that the person Jiang Lan liked so much was Ying Qiao, and that he was fooled by the fake identity made up by Ying Qiao, he couldn’t help but get angry.
No matter how independent their younger brother was, in their eyes, he was still a younger brother who needed their protection.
What’s more, Jiang Lan had lived in the Dragon Palace for many years and had a simple temperament, and he had also never been in love; while Ying Long was cunning and scheming, so shouldn’t it be easy for him to deceive the inexperienced Jiang Lan?
As soon as he thought of this, Bi’an couldn’t control himself and wanted to cut Ying Long into pieces.
“Then what do you say we should do? We can’t just tell Old Five directly, right? Can he bear it?” Bi’an said angrily: “If you want to blame someone, blame Ying Long for being too despicable!”
Bixi didn’t have a very good impression of Ying Long either. Not to mention his reputation outside, just the few times he had come into contact with Ying Long, he already disliked Ying Long’s character.
He was proud, arrogant, and had a bad temper. He was not a good man worthy of trust.
But in Jiang Lan’s words, Ying Qiao was absolutely perfect, without any flaws at all.
The contrast was too great, so it was most likely fake.
As for his purpose of deceiving Jiang Lan, it was nothing more than to deceive his body or heart.
As an elder brother, Bixi certainly would not want to sit idly by and watch his younger brother fall into the trap.
But just like Bi’an said, Jiang Lan’s heart and eyes were now full of Ying Qiao, and he was ready to take him back to the Dragon Palace, which was obviously very serious. If he knew that all this was just a scam, whether he could accept it or not, even Bixi didn’t dare to make a judgment easily.
He sighed deeply, “I’ll check on Ying Long first. Can you get away? It would be best if we don’t let them meet for the time being. Then I’ll ask Lao Ba and Jiu Jiu about the situation. They’ve been with Old Five all day, so they must know a lot.”
Bi’an said, “I’ve asked my assistant to bring my luggage over. I’ll be staying at Old Five’s house until this matter is resolved.”
He then gritted his teeth and said, “As long as I’m here, I’ll never let them meet again!”
This was the only way for now. So, Bixi said, “Then do as you say. But you have to be prepared for this. If it really doesn’t work, you can only tell Old Five the truth. A short pain is worse than a long one.”
“I understand.” said Bi’an.
The two brothers reached a consensus, Bi’an put away his phone, treated his wound slightly, and then went home.
Jiang Lan did not take a nap at noon. After learning that Bi’an had returned home, he hurried back.
When he got home, he saw an inch-long scar under his handsome fourth brother’s eye. So, he immediately shouted angrily: “Did Ying Long do it? Where is he? Let’s fight him back!”
“It’s okay, just a minor injury.”
Bi’an couldn’t bear to let him go find Ying Long now, so he quickly stopped him and said, “He didn’t please me either, I plucked all the scales off his tail. Isn’t he particular? Pull out his dragon scales and see how particular he is.”
Jiang Lan then sat down next to him and asked, “Why did you fight?”
Bi’an’s eyes flickered, and he couldn’t tell the truth, so he could only say vaguely, “Ying Long was playing both sides, and he treated your fourth sister-in-law as a backup, ordering him around like a cow or a horse. I was not happy with it, so I went to fight him.”
What he said was not wrong. Jiang Lan’s grudge was new, while Chen Hua’s grudge was old.
“!!!”
Jiang Lan completely missed the point: “Fourth sister-in-law? When did I get a fourth sister-in-law? You never told me.”
Bi’an: …
He awkwardly put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly and said reluctantly: “I haven’t caught up with him yet.”
“Ah? Doesn’t that mean…” unrequited love?
Jiang Lan stopped talking halfway through, thinking, wasn’t Fourth Brother just being the spare tire of a spare tire?
Wasn’t it too miserable?
No wonder he was so angry that he went to fight with Ying Long.
He nudged Bi’an with his elbow and consoled him, “There are always better fish in the sea…”
You said that others want to be Ying Long’s backup, but aren’t you willing to be their backup too?
It’s not much better.
Bi’an snorted lightly and raised his chin slightly: “I don’t like any others.”
“…”
Jiang Lan was speechless and looked at his fourth brother with a look of pity.
He wondered who the devil was that could make his fourth brother willingly be a spare tire.
Fourth brother is right, Ying Long is really not a good guy. He doesn’t like people but keeps them hanging. He is playing two-timing, what a scumbag!
….
Ying Long sneezed several times and his eyes turned red when he looked at the bald spot on his tail – he was so angry!
Chen Hua was afraid that he would go crazy, so he quickly comforted him, “This little injury is not a big deal, and new scales will grow out soon. During this period, if you don’t change into your original form or cover it up with something, it won’t be visible.”
“The little monster has to sleep hugging my tail every night.” Ying Qiao’s expression became more and more manic: “Is there no way to fix it? How can we let him see it when it’s so ugly?”
What if the little monster dislikes him?!
Chen Hua: …
There’s really no need to show affection just because you’re injured.
“There is no way to repair it. We can only wait for new scales to grow.” Chen Hua suggested halfheartedly: “In fact, you can use this opportunity to play a pitiful role. Maybe when Jiang Lan sees your injury, he will not only not despise you, but will also feel sorry for you.”
His words immediately opened up Ying Qiao’s mind. As a sophisticated and delicate dragon, Ying Qiao’s first reaction was of course to hide the ugly wound. But what Chen Hua said… seemed to make sense.
He hesitated: “Are you sure?”
Chen Hua said perfunctorily: “Yeah, yeah.”
Ying Qiao then tentatively called Jiang Lan.
At this time, Jiang Lan had already returned to work from home. So, he went to the lounge before answering the phone: “What’s wrong?”
“I was injured while taking a mission.” Ying Qiao’s voice sounded depressed.
When Jiang Lan heard that he was injured, he became nervous. He thought, why do misfortunes never come alone? Fourth brother was injured, and Ying Qiao was also injured.
“Where are you hurt? Is it serious?”
Ying Qiao became more and more skilled at playing the victim: “The scales on the tail were bitten off by a mad dog.”
When Jiang Lan heard that his tail was injured, he felt even more distressed and asked him where he was now.
Ying Qiao told him the address of the community and said that his boss had given him a day off to recuperate at home.
“Then wait a minute, I’ll come to see you.” Jiang Lan didn’t hesitate, and asked for leave after hanging up the phone. Then he hurriedly took a taxi to Ying Qiao’s house.
After all, his fourth brother was still at home, so he definitely couldn’t go after work. He could only use the cover of being at work to secretly go see his boyfriend.
After Ying Qiao hung up the phone, he immediately asked Chen Hua to drive him to his “new home”.
So when Jiang Lan arrived, what he saw was a sick boyfriend with his tail hanging limply by the bed.
“Is the injury serious?”
Jiang Lan walked forward and picked up the tail and saw that several scales near the tip of the tail had been pulled out, revealing the tender flesh inside.
He was immediately distressed and blew gently at his tail: “Have you seen a doctor?”
Seeing that Jiang Lan not only didn’t think his tail was ugly, but also looked distressed, Ying Qiao’s gloomy expression finally faded a little. And he said unhappily: “I saw it, and he said that I have to wait for the scales to grow out. In the meantime, I have to keep it ugly like this.”
His brows furrowed, and it was obvious that the ugly tail was a bigger blow to him than the injury.
Jiang Lan gently pinched the tip of his tail, kissed him again, and comforted him, “You’re not ugly at all!”
“Really?” Ying Qiao looked at him. In his heart, he already believed it, but he just wanted to hear him say a few more sweet words.
“Really!” Jiang Lan placed his tail on the bed, carefully avoiding the wound. He hesitated for a moment and said, “If you think it’s ugly, I’ll make a tail ring for you in a few days.”
He gestured: “Last time my eldest cousin came, he gave me a huge piece of jade. I thought it was too valuable and wanted to find a chance to return it to him. Now that you are injured, I will make you a tail ring with jade. It will just cover the wound.”
After saying this, fearing that Ying Qiao would ask about the price of jadeite again, he quickly added, “My eldest cousin’s family owns a jadeite mine, so the last thing they need is jadeite. I will find a chance to repay him in the future, so you don’t have to worry.”
Ying Qiao didn’t pay any attention to the price of the jadeite at all. His attention was all on the jadeite tail ring.
“Tail ring?” He pursed his lips to prevent himself from showing too much joy: “What kind?”
Jiang Lan smiled at him and measured the injured part with his hand: “You will know when it is done. It will definitely match your tail.”
“Yeah.” Ying Qiao finally couldn’t hold it anymore, and the corners of his straight lips curled up.
“Then I’ll wait.”
