Chapter 321: Bring Younger Brother to See Master and Uncle-Master
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Qi Lei followed Xing Jiuan out while Mu Qing closed the door behind them.
On the way back, Xing Jiuan chatted a lot with Qi Lei. She nagged non-stop, which was unlike her.
She still treated Qi Lei like a child and told him that the next time he encountered such a situation, he had to call her even if he was uncertain. If it was not the weekend today, what if Qi Lei was caught on the way to school?
She also said that he should not keep thinking about other things. She wanted him to study hard and do things that he was more interested in. Or he could nurture some interests for himself so that he would have more opportunities to choose what he liked in the future…
Qi Lei listened quietly and responded from time to time. He was especially obedient.
However, he felt that his sister always treated him like she was an adult. She was clearly not older than him by a year.
Xing Jiuan had yet to turn 19, and Qi Lei had just turned 18. Actually, the two of them were only a few months apart, but Xing Jiuan had always regarded Qi Lei as her responsibility.
She treated Qi Lei like a younger brother, but she did not know how to be a sister either. She could only treat Qi Lei like how her Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters treated her. She would slowly learn from them. Even if she did not seem very responsible sometimes, she was still working hard to be a good sister.
When they arrived, Qi Lei was a little surprised that Xing Jiuan had changed her residence.
He knew that Xing Jiuan had many houses, but Xing Jiuan usually lived in that 100-square-meter house. The district was also a little old. Xing Jiuan had told him before that it should be lively and quiet.
It was like an elderly neighbourhood.
At that time, Qi Lei felt that his sister was quite cute.
Xing Jiuan said to Qi Lei, “Master and Uncle-Master are all here. You can just call for help with me.”
Qi Lei was a little nervous.
He had yet to meet Xing Jiuan’s master, let alone her Uncle-Master whom she had never mentioned before.
As her master was very important to Xing Jiuan, Qi Lei hoped that he could leave a good impression on him.
He carried his bag and continued walking. Xing Jiuan had something on and was about to continue walking when she felt that Qi Lei was walking a little strangely.
After looking at him for a few seconds, she suddenly smiled.
She walked over quickly and smiled when she saw Qi Lei’s confused expression.
“Don’t be nervous.”
Qi Lei pursed his lips.
Xing Jiuan said softly, “Master and Uncle-Master are all very good. There’s no need to be nervous.”
Although she said that, she felt amused and helpless. Look at how frightened the child was. He was walking with his hands and feet together!
Qi Lei nodded.
He was no longer that nervous after being comforted by Xing Jiuan, but he still couldn’t relax.
Xing Jiuan had brought Qi Lei to meet some of her friends. When her Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters came, Xing Jiuan would introduce them to them occasionally.
Apart from the three of them, only Lin Feng and Lin Ling were familiar with Qi Lei.
Lin Ling had only met him a few times, and he was not very familiar with him either.
Qi Lei was a little introverted. Perhaps it was because of his childhood experiences. Even the brash Xing Jiuan could not bring her brother to become a little devil like her.
When Qi Lei went in and saw two elders sitting on the sofa in the living room, he knew that they were probably the Master and Uncle-Master that Xing Jiuan had mentioned.
As expected, when Xing Jiuan brought him over, she obediently called out to them.
Xing Jiuan took his bag down and wanted to arrange a room for him. Qi Lei followed behind her and took his bag back.
“My bag is heavy. I can carry it myself,” he whispered.
