The day when she had told Han Nanxian about the Yang woman’s entry into Han Zixin’s life, the protective big brother didn’t take much time to act. He made sure that no one would get to hurt his baby brother.

“Why are you staring at me like this?” Han Zixin asked her.

“Like this, ” Han Zixin said with an uneasy smile.

“Like what?” She questioned again.

He narrowed his eyes at her but she just gave him a bright smile, closing the topic. “Tomorrow, if you want, I can drop you at the office again.”

“Didn’t you move out because your Yeye’s place was far from your office?” An Xiulan questioned.

“No, I moved out because my old man threw me out saying to get a life of my own, ” Han Zixin snorted.

“Yeye is still cute, ” An Xiulan laughed. “You shouldn’t worry about him. I know you don’t have fixed hours in the office. I will help you take care of him. When I will have time, I will drop by to see him. He likes me. I’m sure he will be happy to have me over frequently.”

“He likes you more than his grandsons, ” Han Zixin muttered.

“Are you jealous?” An Xiulan asked him with a chuckle.

“I can never be jealous of you, ” Han Zixin said. “Didn’t you say what is mine is yours and this way grandfather is yours too?”

“No, I said what’s mine is yours, ” An Xiulan quoted.







“Same thing, ” Han Zixin muttered.

“If this is the same thing then you are living in the apartment and you have to pay me rent by cooking delicious meals for me, ” An Xiulan announced. “Or teach me to cook?”

She couldn’t understand why he had to pay rent for an apartment. She felt so wrong to take money from him. Although the apartment was under her name, still…

“You are not entering the kitchen in this life, ” Han Zixin said. “Why do you want to learn cooking? You can always hire someone to cook for you. Don’t you have a long line of servants at home?”

An Xiulan sighed. How does she make him understand that cooking is a life skill and she needed to master it to survive? What would she do one day if she was hungry and there was no one to cook for her?

“I know what you are thinking, ” Han Zixin said. “Remember the time when you went to learn to cook in a cooking class.”

An Xiulan nodded her head. She looked at the faded scar on her arm and said, “I burned my arm and it took two weeks to recover.”

“Exactly, ” He said. “What if a misfortune accident happened again? You just returned home. Don’t scare away your mother.”

An Xiulan nodded her head. “You are right. It’s not that important to cook. If I’m hungry and don’t want to eat out, I can always come to your place and you will cook for me. What an amazing idea!”

“If I’m not at home, you can always go to Yeye’s place, ” Han Zixin said. “His caretaker is always there.”

“Okay, ” An Xiulan smiled brightly. After a while, she said, “Before Nanxian, maybe Sicheng will come to China. He told me that he may move back forever.”

“Are you happy?” Han Zixin asked.

“That he is moving back?” An Xiulan asked. “Of course, I’m! He is my friend. It’s nice to have friends close by. Don’t you think so?”

“Lu Xuan doesn’t like him, ” Han Zixin said.







“So what?” An Xiulan retorted. “I never gave my opinion in Lu Xuan’s business and he doesn’t get to give in to mine. I can be friends with anyone. By the way, since when did you get so close to each other?”

“We both went to university in the same city, ” Han Zixin scoffed. “He was like a lost puppy there. I had no other option but to take him under my protection I can’t let your brother be bullied, can I?”

“That’s why I like you the best, ” An Xiulan said. “I can’t imagine you and him to be friends.”

“Wang Yuxi and I were classmates in the police academy. We shared the same dorm, ” Han Zixin said. “He was your brother’s best friend. We had so many things in common and ended up being together for years. However, I won’t use the word to describe a friend for your brother. He is an asshole.”

“He is but you can’t call him that, ” An Xiulan strictly said. She still abided by the same policy that she could wrong her brother but no one else. Not even her best friend.

“How protective, ” He commented.

“My bros are my life, “An Xiulan said. ” Lu Xuan and I are like fire and water. We won’t stop fighting until one overpowers other but we love each other fiercely. Yan Gege is calm to our storm. He is the sanity to our insanity. He is the middle ground where we all meet. And Xiaobao is my little darling. He loves me such much that sometimes I wish to steal him from dad and auntie.”

“Your little darling still hates me, ” Han Zixin snorted. “He thinks I’m stealing you from him. Can you believe his audacity? Isn’t it the opposite?”

“Stop, ” An Xiulan groaned. “Don’t you both get tired of fighting for the same thing? He is ten but you are twenty-five. You have to be a bigger person and let the child have what he wants.”

‘Impossible, ‘Han Zixin said in his heart. What kind of man would he be if he got lost from a ten year old kid?

“I know what you are thinking, ” An Xiulan said.

“I’m not thinking anything, ” He lied with a straight face.

“You suck at lying, ” She rolled her eyes. Seriously, could he get any more childish than this?

“You know nothing, ” He said as he took a bite of his steak.

“Oh, I do know something, Mr Secret superstar.” And just like this, they were back to bickering with each other.
