When they left the restaurant, it was already late, so Jiang Lan and Bi’an sent their eldest brother to the hotel first.
The hotel Bi Xi booked was not far from Jiang Lan’s residence, so it was very convenient to travel.
“I’ll take Big Brother up, you guys wait downstairs.”
After parking the car, Bi’an gave Jiang Lan some instructions and then sent Bi Xi upstairs alone.
With only the two brothers in the elevator, Bi’an couldn’t help but ask the question he had been holding back for the entire meal: “Did the matter between Lao Wu and Ying Long just get brushed aside so easily?”
That’s too cheap, isn’t it?
Although he and Ying Gou had temporarily reached a consensus and he had agreed not to expose his negative information in front of the eldest brother, it did not mean that he did not want to see Ying Gou being taught a lesson by his eldest brother.
Only when people like Dogecoin suffer more beatings from society will they realize the value of being a human being.
But Big Brother seems unexpectedly easy to talk to today?
Just a few words of criticism would be too much of a courtesy to Ying Gou.
“You’ve been here for these few days. Have you told Lao Wu everything you should do and say?” Bi Xi glanced at him, obviously knowing Bi’an’s character very well.
“…”
Thinking of the deal he had made with Ying Gou, Bi’an coughed guiltily, “Hmm.”
It’s not that he wants to sell out his brother, but his brother’s heart is with Ying Gou. He can’t really be a villain who helps break up the couple, right?
That would really affect the relationship between brothers.
If you can’t stop it, you might as well use the limited advantages to find a sister-in-law for your younger brothers.
“Didn’t you persuade Lao Wu?”
Although he was not in Jiangcheng, it did not mean that Bi Xi knew nothing about his brothers’ situation.
Bi’an hummed again, thinking that such a cute fifth child was taken away by Ying Gou, and the eighth and ninth children also sided with Ying Gou, and he felt unhappy again.
Ying Gou’s luck is too good, why hasn’t he received retribution yet?
“Old Five has a stubborn temper. Now that he has chosen Ying Long, it is useless for us to oppose him. Instead, it will put Old Five in a difficult position and affect the friendship between brothers.” Bi Xi said slowly.
“So we agree to this?”
“You are just too impatient and your emotions are superficial, so it’s so easy to be seen through.”
Bi Xi shook his head, smiled at him, and continued, “I’ve dealt with Ying Long once or twice. He’s a defiant and arrogant man, with an erratic temper. It’s said that he’s never been close to anyone since ancient times. It’s only been three months, and he’s already deeply in love with Lao Wu. So I’m not too optimistic.”
Even thinking more deeply, Bi Xi also had reservations about Ying Long and Jiang Lan’s intention to be together. But these words were obviously not suitable to say to Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan was stubborn and emotionally naive. He had already committed to Ying Qiao, and if they, as his brothers, interfered, it would only hurt their relationship and provoke his rebellious nature. Even if he reluctantly parted ways with Ying Long due to his brother’s opinion, he would probably find it even harder to forget him.
This was not the result that Bi Xi wanted to see.
When Bi Xi learned that Lao Wu’s boyfriend was Ying Long, he already had a plan.
The fourth brother had a bad temper and a history with Ying Long. He was asked to arrive in Jiangcheng first, so he could test the attitudes of Jiang Lan and Ying Long.
He arrived in Jiangcheng today because he was already clear about the attitudes of the two.
“It’s better to open up than to block. This is the first time in years that Lao Wu has truly liked someone. He wants to give it a try, so let him go ahead and give it a try. Although we still want to protect him under our wings, he is an adult after all, and we can no longer make decisions for him. Whether it is right or wrong, he has to figure it out on his own. As his brothers, the only thing we can do is to support him. Even if Ying Long lets Lao Wu down and has designs on him, it’s not too late for us to intervene.”
What’s more, Jiang Lan has been alone outside for more than a year and his performance has not been bad.
In terms of dealing with people and things, he is now fully capable of standing on his own.
Bi’an thought about it and felt that what his elder brother said made sense, but he believed in his younger brother but not Ying Gou.
“What if they never separate?”
With Ying Gou acting like that, wouldn’t it be easy for him to deceive his simple and foolish brother?
“That’s why I said, it’s fine to date, but it’s too early to form a partnership. Let’s wait and see. A scam can last for one or two years, or even five or ten years, but it can’t last for dozens or even hundreds of years.” Bi Xi said, “If they never break up, then there’s no need for us to interfere. We just need to accept it.”
Although he had a bad impression of Ying Long and secretly did not think highly of him, if Lao Wu liked him and their relationship was stable, he would not interfere too much. After all, it was not them who would spend the rest of his life with Lao Wu, but the partner Lao Wu would have chosen.
“…”
Bi’an was silent for a moment and had to admit that his elder brother’s idea was the most appropriate.
I’m just a little bit resentful that Ying Gou is so lucky.
The two brothers emerged from the elevator. Bi’an then escorted his eldest brother to his hotel room. Just as he was about to leave, he heard his eldest brother suddenly ask a soul-searching question: “Always talking about Lao Wu, what about you? I heard from the people below that you recently got involved in a new project and are very close to Ying Long’s special assistant Chen Hua?”
Bi’an: …
Damn! The fire accidentally burned me.
He began to regret following.
After coughing, Bi’an said uncomfortably, “Yes, I like Chen Hua and I’m still working hard.”
He had already read several books recommended by Ying Gou and had also started to follow up on the project. He even asked Chen Hua out for dinner under the pretext of project negotiation, which went quite smoothly. However, they only talked about business most of the time and could not go any further, which was a bit urgent.
Besides, he had never met that senior brother. He wanted to test it out, but he was afraid that if he acted too hastily, Chen Hua would be unhappy and turn against him.
The book said: In the early stages of pursuing your sweetheart, you must never mention his ambiguous partner or ex, otherwise it will easily backfire.
Judging from Ying Gou’s words, this senior brother and Chen Hua were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was deep, so the possibility of something going on was quite high. So, although he was trembling with anxiety, he still held it in and didn’t ask.
“Work hard.” When it came to Bi’an, Bi Xi was obviously much more relieved, even a little interested in watching the fun: “It’s rare to have someone who can temper your temper, it’s a good thing.”
If we take no stance and speak objectively, Bi’an’s temperament was actually comparable to Ying Long’s, both of them had a kind of arrogance and conceit that came from their bones. Of course, this was also a common problem among many dragons.
The only thing that was better about him than Ying Long was that he cared about the Dragon Palace behind him and did not make enemies everywhere; Ying Long was probably alone and had no ties, so he acted more extremely and recklessly than Bi’an.
Seeing Bi Xi’s teasing expression, Bi’an immediately became dissatisfied: “Brother, you are too partial.”
You don’t even know what advice to give to your dear brother!
Bi Xi pondered for a moment, then nodded as he wished. “It just so happens that I have something to discuss with the person in charge here. After the meeting tomorrow, I’ll invite Chen Hua over for a quick meal.” He looked at his brother and said slowly, “I’ll also give you some fuel.”
Bi’an: …
He always felt that his elder brother’s “adding fuel to the fire” was not sincere.
More like wanting to mess with him.
But he didn’t dare say it.
….
After coming down from upstairs, Bi’an and Jiang Lan went home together.
Jiang Lan lowered the car window and craned his neck to look at him: “What did you whisper to Big Brother about? Why did you take so long to come down?”
He said in a flattering manner: “I want to listen too.”
Bi’an could see that he was trying to test the waters.
However, he thought about it and gave his brother some reassurance: “Big brother said that he would not interfere with your relationship, but if you want to form a partnership and let the other person enter the gate of the Dragon Palace, they still need to be examined.”
He said with eyes that were not eyes and nose that were not nose[1]: “Tell Ying Gou to change his ways and be a good man.”
If you are not careful, you will bring out a negative reputation.
“Ying Qiao performed so well today.” Jiang Lan hummed to express his dissatisfaction.
Why does he have to turn over a new leaf and become a new person?
Not a criminal.
“Brother will definitely be satisfied,” he said.
This is probably the filter of love-brain. Bi’an looked at his brother with deep sorrow, unable to speak due to a heart attack.
Anyone with a good eye would not think that Ying Gou was a good thing.
He sighed deeply and once again felt jealous of Ying Gou’s good life from the bottom of his heart.
Not only did he manage to win over his fifth brother who had his own filter and was super easy to please, but even his brothers were so reasonable.
Think about yourself again, chasing someone is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
The road ahead is long and arduous.
Why can’t Chen Hua look at him through a filter?
….
The next day was the weekend, and Jiang Lan had planned to accompany his elder brother to eat, drink and have fun, and to show his hospitality.
As a result, before he got up, he received a call from his eldest brother, who said that he had to go to a small meeting with the senior management of the branch company and also called his fourth brother to go. Then there was no news from him at all.
It was really busy.
Jiang Lan rolled over on the bed and happily called Ying Qiao to ask him if he wanted to go on a date today.
Ying Qiao was slightly surprised: “Don’t you have to accompany Big Brother today?”
And can Bi Xi let people out so easily?
Jiang Lan hugged the quilt and laughed: “Big brother and fourth brother are busy in the meeting.”
Today he is a free little Taotie who can go on a happy date!
Ying Qiao was infected by his smile and curled his lips: “Then I’ll come to pick you up. What do you want for breakfast? I’ll buy it on the way and bring it up.”
Jiang Lan leaned over and asked the three kids, then listed a bunch of breakfast items before hanging up the phone.
Thinking that Ying Qiao would be here soon, Jiang Lan rolled over for a while and then quickly got up, went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face, tidied up his messy hair, and sprayed a little perfume before coming out of the bathroom with satisfaction.
Suan Ni held up his cell phone and called, “Fifth brother, there’s a call!”
“Whose is it?” Jiang Lan walked over, took the phone and looked at it, his eyebrows raised.
It turned out to be Bai You’s voice call.
