Chapter 125 Putting Someone to Sleep
Chapter 125 Putting Someone to Sleep
"Oh, brother, you're too long-winded. The girl I like is absolutely perfect, but I haven't won her over yet. Once I do, I'll bring her back to show you all. Don't you dare sneak around looking into the girl I like, or I'll get angry."
Duan Qingchen has a relatively good relationship with his older brother. When they were young, their parents were busy with work, so his older brother often took care of him. He wasn't particularly rebellious towards his brother.
"You brat, do you think I'm that kind of person? I work myself to the bone to earn money for you, and this is how you treat your brother?" Duan Qingye slapped his younger brother on the head. This damn brother, he'd rather not have him.
He hasn't even won the girl's heart yet, and he's already threatening his brother, telling him not to scare her away and not to investigate her. Does he have that much free time? He doesn't do anything; he, as the older brother, is the one who runs the company.
It's such a waste of raising such a younger brother. He's got a wife and forgot about his brother. Oh wait, I don't have a wife yet.
"Do you think you can win over a girl like that?" Duan Qingye wasn't trying to put his younger brother down. In the eyes of good families, his brother was considered a spoiled brat, or to put it more bluntly, a good-for-nothing second-generation rich kid.
Even if a girl from a respectable family is deceived by his appearance, her parents would not approve of him.
"Brother, how could you say this? What's wrong with me? I'm great! I'm handsome, loyal, and my family is rich!" Duan Qingchen felt that he was so good, so why did his brother say that he was so bad?
"What decent boy is this old and still sponging off his parents? Look at your legs! We told you not to go racing, but you insisted. And look what happened? You injured your legs! If it weren't for our money, your legs would be ruined. Tell me, what decent girl would want to live with someone like you?"
Duan Qingye didn't genuinely think his younger brother was incompetent. After all, he was the younger brother he had taken care of, and he knew him well. His younger brother also had a wonderful personality.
Aside from being a bit rebellious, he's otherwise a good person, keeping himself clean and unlike some of the real rich kids in the industry who often mess around. But his rebelliousness is a bit too inconsiderate of his family's feelings. Like this time, he injured his leg. What about next time? What if it's someone's life that gets hurt?
He didn't have any weaknesses that could be exploited before, but now that he has a girl he likes, I believe he will be more careful for her sake.
"Then I won't do it anymore. I've been taking good care of my leg, and it will definitely be the same as before. I won't do anything dangerous anymore, and I definitely won't let the girl I like worry."
Duan Qingchen thought about what his brother had said and felt that his brother was right. Now that he had a girl he liked, he could no longer act so recklessly and needed to plan his future properly.
What if Jiu Jiu takes me to meet her parents in the future? I can't be all dressed up like a scruffy, unambitious person who only knows how to sponge off his parents.
Duan Qingchen blushed slightly at the thought of meeting Jiu Jiu's parents in the future. Meeting her parents meant that Jiu Jiu approved of him, liked him, and would marry him. Just thinking about the wedding, Jiu Jiu in her wedding dress would definitely be the most beautiful bride.
Duan Qingye was truly helpless. His younger brother had just promised him that he would no longer do such dangerous things, but now he suddenly spaced out, seemingly lost in thought, his face flushed.
You don't need to guess to know what's going on in his head.
"Alright, stop trying to win her over. You haven't even won her over yet. Stop thinking about things and focus on getting better. When you're healed, come back and help me at the company." Duan Qingye thought that he couldn't let his younger brother waste his life like this.
I'm almost thirty and still don't have a wife. My younger brother already has a girl he likes, and I feel resentful. I can't stand him working so hard at the company while he's out chasing girls.
He also needed to experience his brother's hard work. "I don't care, I'll definitely catch up, don't jinx it," Duan Qingchen said, and all the images in his mind disappeared after his brother teased him.
After receiving the doll, Duan Qingchen specially commissioned someone to make a room suitable for the doll and placed it in his room, a place where he could see it as soon as he woke up.
This way, Jiu Jiu can sleep with me, and I can see Jiu Jiu when I wake up.
Xiao Jiu was unaware of the situation here; she was trying to coax her brother, Bujian Jun, to sleep tonight.
Jiu Jiu: [Do you want to rest now?]
I can't see you: [Hmm]
Jiu Jiu: [Should I call you?]
Before I could get a reply, he called.
"Can you hear me?" (The speaker asks,)
The voice of the unseen gentleman is deep and pleasant, with a lazy and roguish charm.
Xiao Jiu: "I can hear you."
"How are you going to lull me to sleep?" (I don't see you)
Xiao Jiu: "Hmm...reading aloud? How was it?"
Without seeing you: "Okay."
Xiao Jiu: "Brother Jun, do you have any books or articles you'd like to read? I can read them to you."
Xiao Jiu hadn't prepared any texts for him to fall asleep. She figured that since she was already using reading to lull him to sleep, she could choose a book or article he liked and read it to him herself.
I didn't see you: "Let's read 'The Little Prince'."
Xiao Jiu looked for the book, but since she didn't have the original copy with her, she had to search for it online. Fortunately, the internet is so advanced now that you can find almost anything online.
"...
One day, I watched the sunset forty-four times. You know, people tend to love watching sunsets when they're feeling down.
......"
"...
If you fall in love with a flower that grows on some planet, when you look up at the night sky, you will feel a sweet sensation, as if all the stars are blooming with flowers. ..."
Xiao Jiu heard no sound from the other end of the phone, so she figured that Brother Bujian must be asleep. "Goodnight, Brother Bujian," she whispered, and hung up.
On the other end of the phone, Wen Qiyu silently replied to her with a goodnight in his heart. He had recorded the sound of her reading stories to him to sleep that day. He didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but he dialed her number and started recording.
Now, as I listen to her storytelling, I gradually drift off to sleep. Perhaps it's because of her presence that the whole night feels so wonderful. I'm immersed in my dreams, accompanied by the girl's voice.
Xiao Jiu also fell asleep. She felt extra tired today. She fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed. After she fell asleep, her body turned back to its original form and glowed with a faint reddish light under the moonlight.
No one and nothing noticed this phenomenon except the moon in the sky, and she herself was unaware that these things were happening to her.
She woke up the next afternoon, thinking she had overslept and didn't pay much attention. After soothing her empty stomach, she prepared to start broadcasting again. She would broadcast for one more day and then go back to school tomorrow. She missed school.
