shi+ Jin went out in a hurry, forgetting that he had neither coait because of his htly disheveled pajamas, he made quite the picture of a psychiatric ward patient

This sudden rush surprised Gua Five, who stood outside the door, and it took him a second to react He wanted to stop shi+ Jin, but before he er had already collided with a tallaround the corner and halted by himself

A man?

They were in a private hospital, and Annihilation held the whole floor How could there be an outsider here?

Gua Five frowned and hurried their way After seeing the face of the man, he was a bit taken aback He stepped forward, unobtrusively placing shi+ Jin behind hih what he actually wanted to ask was how the other party got to this floor

It was the long-unseen shi+ Weichong who had inadvertently beca for a long tiard, his hair a bit untidy, and his clothes were a little wrinkled

shi+ Weichong barely spared Gua Five a glance and looked back at shi+ Jin Seeing his complexion was rosy and his hair mussed—he'd obviously just woke up—the olderthat you were injured, Xiao Jin I orried, so I decided to visit”

shi+ Jin: ”Uh…”

shi+ Weichong seemed to have been broken—he acted to a coain, shi+ Jin stared blankly Frankly, he wasn't quite sure how to react

Act like he used to as if they were loving brothers? After knowing about The Deal, that was obviously iinal 'shi+ Jin' would never allow hi the cold shoulder? However, shi+ Jin wasn't the original 'shi+ Jin' after all—he hi's attitude right noas quite genial, he didn't want to push hionizing his brothers would be akin to shooting himself in the foot

As such, there was only one way he could treat shi+ Weichong

”Thank you for co to see ave his brother a polite smile ”It's a bit inappropriate to stand here and talk Would you like to coht be a little untidy…”

The light in shi+ Weichong's eyes dimmed as soon as shi+ Jin said ”Thank you” His lips pursed, then he nodded ”Yes, I'd like to I hope I'oing to come in?

shi+ Jin wanted to slap himself He stuffed the tablet into Gua Five's hands, pointed to the ward behind hio ahead You may need to wait for a while, I haven't washed yet”

At his alienated, slightly guarded ed a little He replied, ”It's fine, I can wait”

The three ether shi+ Jin let shi+ Weichong sit on the couch in the corner, poured hi Gua Five with hi toilette, shi+ Jin sat opposite his brother, replacing Gua Five He inquired, still politely, ”Would you like to have breakfast together? The food here is quite good”

shi+ Weichong nodded yet again ”Yes, thank you”

Don'tBrother, you're oh-so-welcome

By this ti he wanted to say and would not leave until he did, so he turned to Gua Five and asked hiet two breakfasts

Gua Five nodded He eyed shi+ Weichong, then got up and walked to the door, but instead of going out, heup, he didn't co for someone to deliver the food

While shi+ Jin and Gua Five conversed, shi+ Weichong glanced around the ward He waited for Gua Five to leave then said to shi+ Jin, who very obviously was less than enthusiastic to see him, ”Don't be nervous, I really ca”

shi+ Jin replied, ”Okay”

”Are you better?” shi+ Weichong continued

”Much better” shi+ Jin responded politely

”How did you get hurt?”

”A little accident”

”Hoere you since that tiht”

”You too”

As this dry conversation ground to a standstill, the at set down the water glass Abruptly, his tone became solemn: ”Xiao Jin, I know I don't have the position to say this anymore, but I…”

”Breakfast has arrived,” Gua Two interrupted, approaching theh of relief He helped Gua Five set the table and invited his brother to eat

shi+ Weichong still wanted to speak However, as his gaze fell upon shi+ Jin's patient pajamas, he temporarily shut up and picked up his chopsticks

After a similarly stuffy and aard breakfast, the brothers faced each other again

shi+ Weichong tried to say soain, but as soon as he opened his tone was clearly set to a single person, because his expression became coh

shi+ Jin's interest stirred, and his mind immediately produced all kinds of speculations This reaction—did shi+ Weichong finally fall in love? Is this his girlfriend or boyfriend calling?

Probably noticing his curiosity, as shi+ Weichong took out his phone, he explained, ”It's my mother”

Oh, it's just his mother

shi+ Jin automatically recalled all infor's mother, Xu Jie, and lost interest Soon, however, boredo he felt

”Mo answered the phone The person on the other end probably inquired about his whereabouts, because he went on to say he wasn't in the co shi+ Jin in a hospital on the other side of the ocean

shi+ Jin and Xiao Si instantly noticed that after shi+ Weichong said this, shi+ Jin's progress bar rose, albeit only a little

”Is it really up by 1 point? I didn't see wrong?” shi+ Jin asked for confirmation in his mind

Xiao Si affirmed, <you didn't—it=”” was=”” 490,=”” now=”” it's=”” 491=””>

For a second, shi+ Jin's sharp gaze focused on shi+ Weichong's phone Then he looked away as if nothing had happened, bowed his head, and began to peel aXiao Si to enhance his hearing

The buff worked quickly Soon, shi+ Jin heard a fe about? Visiting shi+ Jin? Weichong, have you co I have said to you?}

shi+ Weichong glanced at shi+ Jin, as ”engrossed” in peeling the ”

That see to say because Xu Jie's tone instantly became severe: {Oh, do you? I don't think so! shi+ Jin left, and did it of his own free will, so why are you bothering with hiive a portion of shares to him? Don't you remember it was because of hi to be as foolish as your father?}

”Moly Finding his voice got too loud, he hurriedly suppressed his e to do with Xiao Jin—everything was clearly Dad's fault Please don't say such things again Don't worry about the shares, I knohat I aaining a trace of ferocity: {It has nothing to do with hi this? Because of shi+ Jin, your father treated both of us like nothing more than chess pieces Because of shi+ Jin, you ran off to Chengdu on New Year's Eve, leavingFestival alone And now, because you want to give shi+ Jin the shares, you gave up your control of Ruixing, co the co involved with him, I'm afraid that you will throw your own , obviously having a headache, tried to placate her: ”Mo in contact with hi about!} Xu Jie interrupted hi lowered the phone Looking weary, he pressed a finger to his forehead between his eyebrows

shi+ Jin silently canceled the enhanced hearing buff and took a look at his progress bar, which went up to 500 thea bitter taste in his mouth instead of fruity sweetness—this could be called a disaster out of the blue He never i would be able to make his lethal factors increase just by a visit and one phone conversation with a person on the other side of the ocean Thank you, Big Brother, your ”brotherly love” is really touching

”Xiao Jin” shi+ Weichong shook off his previous mood and called shi+ Jin, who looked absent-e, looked up at hiotshook his head and told a baldfaced lie: ”No, she was a bit angry because of so else?”

shi+ Weichong see nonsense He picked up the briefcase next to his foot, took a document from it, pushed it in front of shi+ Jin and said, ”This You divided your Ruixing shares into five parts and passed the to yourself I didn't stop you then because I had selfish ht After considering the matter, I decided to return to you the part you should've taken”
