Chapter 243 Don’t Call Me Brother
After hearing Xia Zhirou's voice, everyone looked towards the door nervously.
There was a young man standing at the door. His appearance was a little unclear against the light. All I could see was that he was holding several paper bags in his left hand and holding a sword in his right hand.
Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi did not forget what their senior brother had said before. They quickly stood up and blocked Ruan Xihe behind them.
The young man outside the door responded to Xia Zhirou indifferently.
The young man's tone was a little lonely. He continued, "I brought some breakfast back. Let's eat first."
No one has forgotten Xia Zhirou's extremely arrogant speech just now.
But as breakfast was placed on the table, everyone's expressions relaxed and the tense atmosphere just now dissipated a lot in an instant.
"Brother, you're finally here." Xia Zhirou ran over excitedly and took the boy's arm.
The boy did not respond to Xia Zhirou, but simply pulled his arm out of her hand without leaving a trace.
Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, the young man frowned, his eyes somewhat puzzled, and turned to scan the faces of several of his senior brothers and sisters.
"What's wrong? Did anything happen to you while I was away?"
Everyone hesitated and no one spoke.
But Ruan Xihe raised his eyebrows.
This voice sounded familiar to her.
Xia Zhirou pulled over a chair and said slowly, "Brother, you don't know, there is someone in our team who is extremely arrogant. He hit me right away. You have to take care of it for me!"
The senior brother frowned. He wanted to refute Xia Zhirou, saying that it was not the case at all. It was she who provoked first, so the junior sister took action...
"no......"
As soon as the senior brother opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Xia Zhirou, "Brother, if you had come a little later, someone might have taken your captain position away. By then, I don't know how she would bully me."
Xia Zhirou expected the boy to support her, but unexpectedly, the boy did not give any answer.
She couldn't help but glance sideways, only to find that the boy had turned his head and was looking outside the house, his eyes scanning back and forth outside, and he wasn't listening to her at all!
Xia Zhirou tugged at the boy's sleeve and pointed in the direction of Ruan Xihe with some displeasure.
"Brother, did you listen to me? It's her..."
"Xia Yuanbai?"
Almost at the same time, Ruan Xihe pried open the arms of Xiao Yin and Jimo Qianyi and revealed his head from behind them.
The moment he saw her, Xia Yuanbai seemed to come back to life.
He jumped up, walked across the table, came to Ruan Xihe, looked her up and down, and then tears filled his eyes.
"Brother He, I thought you were dead."
Xia Yuanbai was too excited and wanted a big hug.
But remembering the difference between men and women, Xia Yuanbai stopped his actions abruptly, and patted her shoulders with tears in his eyes.
Ruan Xihe: “…”
Xiao Yin, Jimo Qianyi and the senior brother were all shocked.
what's the situation?
How come Ruan Xihe knows Captain Xia Yuanbai?
Xiao Yin was even ready to secretly give his improved acceleration shoes to Ruan Xihe so that she could slip away, but he didn't expect things to develop to this point.
Dai Yan was slightly surprised. She couldn't understand how the two of them knew each other. Even she, although she and Xia Yuanbai were in the same Lingyue Country, it was rare for them to meet each other.
Feng Xin glanced at the few people, then turned his gaze away indifferently, with a calm expression, as if no matter what happened it was none of his business.
Ou Ye's eyes flashed with hatred, and he gritted his teeth in anger.
Others were also a little surprised.
When they saw that the captain was Xia Zhirou's brother, they thought that Ruan Xihe was going to be framed by the two of them, but they didn't expect that the two actually knew each other!
"And...oh no, Ruan Ruan, why are you here?"
After asking this question, Xia Yuanbai realized that his question was a bit stupid. The fact that she was here meant that she was a member of the task force sent by Nanzhan College!
He quickly changed the topic and asked, "Are you okay? Are you hurt? Thanks to you yesterday, I would have almost died here."
Ruan Xihe was about to shake his head when he noticed a resentful and sad look beside him.
Xiao Yin twisted his handsome face and said sullenly, "Ruan Ruan, we are sworn brothers after all, how could you secretly leave me and sneak out by yourself last night?"
Ruan Xihe pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled a little reluctantly, and said nonsense: "I went out to digest my food and happened to meet him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhirou walked forward and squeezed in between the two of them arrogantly.
"Brother, it's Ruan Xihe!"
"She has been bullying me, targeting me, and beating me up. She beat me up because she doesn't take our Xia family seriously. You must avenge me!"
Ruan Xihe pointed at Xia Zhirou, and said to Xia Yuanbai, "Are you her brother?"
She couldn't figure it out.
Xia Yuanbai, such a warm-hearted and righteous young man, can't have a sister as stupid and silly as Xia Zhirou, right?
Could it be a genetic mutation?
Xia Yuanbai held his forehead helplessly and finally shook his head.
"I am only one day older than her. She is a child born from a branch of our Xia family. Because she has good talent, she was sent to be raised by my uncle."
Others didn't expect to hear such gossip here.
Because Xia Zhirou always acted like a willful young lady, everyone thought she was a proper young lady of the Xia family.
I didn't expect that she was born into a side family and became a lady because of her good talent.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Xia Zhirou's face changed, and she gritted her teeth angrily, "I already said that she hurt me, so you don't protect the dignity of my Xia family and let others trample on the family honor like this, right?"
Xia Yuanbai was a little unhappy.
"What does your being beaten have to do with the Xia family's honor?"
"And I believe her. If you were beaten, it must be because you did something wrong and you deserved it."
He already knew what Xia Zhirou's reputation was outside.
After saying that, he looked at Ruan Xihe with a servile look on his face.
"How's it going, Ruan Ruan? I don't think you were bullied by her, right? Did it hurt when you hit her hand?"
Everyone had no doubt that if Xia Yuanbai had a tail, it would be wagging happily at this moment!
"Captain, Junior Sister was indeed acting in self-defense. It was Junior Sister Xia who provoked her first."
The senior brother saw that Xia Yuanbai was not deliberately defending Xia Zhirou, so he spoke up to explain.
Xia Yuanbai grinned at Ruan Xihe, "I know."
After saying that, he turned and stared at Xia Zhirou.
"Xia Zhirou, if you want to do the mission well, then do it. If you have other thoughts, I will notify the elders of the family and someone will take you back. You can choose one yourself."
Xia Zhirou bit her lip, then lowered her head and said resignedly, "I will continue to complete my mission."
"Since you have chosen to continue the mission, you are now a member of the team. If you continue to act like a demon, I have the right to punish you."
"Also, we're not familiar with each other, so don't call me brother."
