Faced with his brother’s question, Fang Yuan did not speak; he continued eating his breakfast He knew his younger brother’s character – Fang Zheng was not someone who could keep in his composure

Sure enough Fang Zheng saw that his older brother did not even bat an eye at hi Yuan pretended he was air In the nextbrother, what did you do to Shen Cui? Ever since she came out from your room yesterday, she cried all over the place When I comforted her, she cried even more”

Fang Yuan looked up at his younger brother, his face expressionless Fang Zheng frowned, staring fir for his reply

The at tense

But Fang Yuan just looked at hi

The younger brother Fang Zheng was i Yuan’s attitude was clearly an undisguised conteed his hand on the table, roaring loudly, “Gu Yue Fang Yuan, how can you act like this! Shen Cui as a servant girl has served you for so entleness and care towards you Yes, I know you feel lost, and I can understand your dejected feelings Yeah you’re just a C grade talent, but it doesn’t er on others just because of your own misfortune This isn’t fair to her!”

He had barely finished when Fang Yuan stood up, raising his hand in a flash

Slap!

With a loud snap he gave Fang Zheng a solid smack

Fang Zheng covered his right cheek, stu two steps backwards, his face full of shock

“Useless bastard, what kind of tone are you using to talk to your own older brother?! That Shen Cui is just a servant girl! Just because of a lowly girl like her you would forget that I a Yuan reprimanded in a low voice

Fang Zheng finally reacted, his stinging pain on his face surging through his nervous systeh as he said in disbelief, “Big brother, you hit rew up, you have never hit rade talent, you were just C grade But you also cannot blaement of heaven…”

Slap!

Fang Zheng had not finished speaking, yet Fang Yuan used the back of his hand and sain

Fang Zheng covered both his cheeks with his two hands He was stunned

“Naïve fool, do you still re till no did I take care of you? When our parents died, our life was hard During New Year, aunt and uncle only gave us both one new robe, did I wear it? Who did I give it to wear? When you were se, I would tell the kitchens to make another bowl for you everyday When you were bullied by others, who brought you back? Not to s, I don’t feel like it is worth talking about Well, right now because of ato question me?”

Fang Zheng’s face was red His lips trery Yet he was unable to say a single word of rebuttal

Because everything Fang Yuan said was the truth!

“Whatever” Fang Yuan sneered, “Since you even gave up your own biological parents and ad brother?”

“Big brother, how can you that You also know that I have always longed for the war immediately explained

Fang Yuan waved his hand, stopping his brother fro “From today onwards, you are not er your older brother”

“Big brother!” Fang Zheng was surprised, opening his mouth to say more

At thisYuan spoke, “Don’t you like Shen Cui? Don’t worry; I didn’t do anything to her She’s still a virgin, untouched and pure Pass me six primeval stones and I’ll pass her to you, from today onwards she can be your personal maid”

“Big brother, why are you…” To have his inner thoughts revealed out loud so suddenly, Fang Zheng felt a surge of panic, feeling rather unprepared

But at the sa he orried about the most did not come true

Not long ago in the night, Shen Cui personally served and washed him

Even though nothing ientleness of that night Every tiht of Shen Cui, he would remember her skillful hands and her soft red lips, and his heart would throb

The sincere feelings of youthfulness had long planted itself in the young row

Thus when he learned about Shen Cui’s unusual state last evening, a bout of anger i his Moonlight Gu and turned the village inside out trying to find Fang Yuan, wanting to make a statement

Seeing Fang Zheng not replying, Fang Yuan frowned and said, “Love is very nor away Of course, if you don’t want to exchange, then that’s fine”

Fang Zheng was anxious on the spot “I’ll exchange! Why would I not exchange But the prih for six anymore”

As he said this, he took out his money pouch, his face red all over

Fang Yuan took the pouch and found six pieces in it, but one of the stones a them was smaller than a nor Zheng had absorbed the primeval essence froht Gu After all the ets absorbed from the priht will also becohter

Even though it was just five pieces and a half, Fang Yuan knew: These were all the priht now Fang Zheng had no savings on his own, and these six priiven to hio

“I’ll keep these, you can go now” Fang Yuan’s expression was cold as he tucked the bag away

“Big brother…” Fang Zheng wanted to say more

Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, speaking in a slow and leisure e my mind, you better disappear from my eyes”

Fang Zheng felt his heart tighten He gritted his teeth, and finally turned and left When he stepped through the doorway of the inn, he subconsciously covered his chest with his hand, feeling a wave of uneasiness There was a feeling that was telling hi very important

But very quickly he felt hot as he thought of Shen Cui, and that dreahtfully as mine, Cui Cui (1)” He did not look back, and walked out of Fang Yuan’s sight

Fang Yuan stood expressionless; he stood for a long time, then he finally slowly sat down

The bright sunlight passed through the , shi+ning onto his indifferent face,those who saw this feel somewhat cold inside The business in the cafeteria was rather poor, and the streets grew busier with people The noise and excite the place feel quieter The dishes grew cold A worker ca Yuan would like to reheat his breakfast

Fang Yuan did not hear it His gaze kept shi+fting like a cloud, as if he was re some oldYuan in a trance, never replying a single word, he could only rub his nose and walk away bitterly

After a long tiain The past memories in his heart were like smoke; they had already dispersed away

He returned to reality once ht that flowed in, shone over half the table The hot air that wafted out of the dishes had already disappeared, and the bustling noise of the crowd on the streets travelled into his ears
