Chapter 113 - Asshole (2/2)
”I want to see my sister.”
”Well, then I'll come along.” Xi Jian followed him.
”What for? This is a family matter, you are not needed.”
Xi Jian clicked his tongue. ”I will not allow a man who is not me alone with YueYue.”
Ling Feng narrowed. ”I'm her brother.”
”And you're a man.”
”Pftt ...”
Zou Ci couldn't hide his laughter seeing Ling Feng's face folded. Xi Jian didn't care and climbed up the steps first.
Ling Feng looked at Xi Jian's back with a million thoughts. He put his mind aside when he saw Ling Yue smile brightly to greet him.
”Feng Ge!”
”What the--” Ling Feng hurried towards her when Ling Yue walked a little unsteadily.
Ling Feng glared at Xi Jian as if understanding what happened. ”Asshole!!”
”This asshole is your brother-in-law now.” Xi Jian smirked.
Ling Yue gestured him so as not to argue with her brother. Xi Jian shrugged and waited outside, giving the two of them privacy.
”What's wrong?” Ling Yue asked him.
”I waited for you to come home all night but you didn't show up either. That's why I came here.”
Ling Yue's face turned red. ”That's ... sorry ... I didn't know you were waiting for me. You should have called me.”
Ling Feng looked annoyed and took a deep breath. He pulled out a small velvet-lined box from under his coat and handed it to Ling Yue.
”This is our deceased mother's gift for you. She left it to me before the accident happened.”
Ling Yue stared at a ruby ring that sparkled sweetly in the box. ”For me?”
”Hmm ...” Ling Feng sighed. ”I should have given that gift on your wedding day but, listen to me Yueyue...and don't be angry ... I couldn't attend when your ceremony was held ...”
Ling Yue opened her eyes wide. ”What? Why?” Her marriage ceremony was only three days away.
”I'm sorry ... my mission can't be canceled. My squad spent a lot of time and energy on this mission.”
Ling Yue still could not accept Ling Feng's words. He grabbed her hand and stroked her hair.
”I give you my blessing. As long as you are happy. Therefore, even though I was absent, I hope everything will go smoothly. I have already told father and he will accompany you to walk on the altar.”
Ling Yue gripped his sleeves. ”But I want you to take me. Can't you postpone it?”
”I wish I could ... forgive me.”
”But, but...”
”You have to keep me update and sending me a lot of your photo wearing a wedding dress later. Okay?”
Ling Yue's tears trickled down her cheeks.
”Jezz, why are you crying?”
”How can I not cry if my brother not attending my happy day?”
Ling Feng hugged and patted her back slowly.
”Stop crying or I'll cry too.” Ling Feng tried to cheer her up. He also really wanted to see his only sister in a wedding gown. He was sure that his sister would be the most beautiful bride in his eyes.
”Sorry...”
