Chapter 143: Weaving a New Bond
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Pang Le was stunned when he heard Yue Lingyi’s words. Pharmaceutics and Engineering Magazine was the top medical journal in the country! Those who could publish papers there were all big shots!
Pang Le swallowed his saliva and asked tentatively, “May I know your name?”
“Yue Lingyi.”
“Ahhh! You, you’re that 14-year-old genius!!”
“Ah, you’re my idol!”
“Idol, my name is Pang Le. I admire you very much! My dream is to become your junior brother!”
“Idol… ”
Hearing Pang Le’s crazy words, Yue Xin silently turned down the volume of her phone. She went downstairs and asked Yue Lingyi, “Fifth Brother, are you done?”
Yue Lingyi was stunned for a moment when he heard this form of address. It took him a long time to realize that Yue Xin was calling out to him. Ever since he spoke to Yue Xin, Yue Xin either called him Yue Lingyi or went without a proper address. She just spoke directly and had never called him Fifth Brother. However, why did Yue Xin suddenly call him Fifth Brother? According to experience, it was definitely not a good thing.
Although he thought so, Yue Lingyi still nodded and agreed. Then, he said to Pang Le on the other end of the camera, “If you don’t believe me, we can continue competing after the thesis is out.”
Unexpectedly, Pang Le changed his usual arrogance and hurriedly shook his head. “No, no, no need. If Brother Yue Lingyi said so, he must be right. I was wrong. I admit defeat!”
Pang Le admitted defeat very quickly, and Yue Lingyi went offline very quickly. “See you then.” After saying that, Yue Lingyi quickly switched off his computer and replied to Yue Xin, “Yes, it’s done.”
Yue Xin walked closer to Yue Lingyi. Her originally lazy steps now gave off a feeling of suppression step by step. “Fifth Brother, I want to see your hand.” Yue Lingyi was a little puzzled, but ever since he accepted that Yue Xin’s magical brain circuit was programmed to be too lazy to think about the settings, he no longer had any vigilance towards Yue Xin, which gave Yue Xin a chance.
After Yue Xin obtained Yue Lingyi’s approval, she rolled up Yue Lingyi’s sleeve. As expected, she saw more needle marks than on Yue Lingyu’s body and a very regular incision.
Yue Xin was looking at Yue Lingyi’s right arm because he was left-handed. She stared at these needle marks and wounds, her expression almost unchanged. After tidying Yue Lingyi’s clothes, she asked, “Do Eldest Brother and Fourth
Brother not know that you’re experimenting with your body?”
Although Yue Xin said it as a question, her meaning was more inclined to a statement.
Yue Lingyi tugged at his sleeve. “I don’t know.”
Yue Xin’s guess was right. From the past few days, it could be seen that Eldest Brother was more concerned about Yue Lingyi’s mental state. Fourth Brother was concerned about what Yue Lingyi wanted to do, and as long as Yue Lingyi’s actions did not affect others, it was not easy to be discovered.
Yue Lingyi stared at Yue Xin. “Are you going to tell them?”
Yue Xin replied, “Why should I tell them?” The reason why she asked was only to satisfy her curiosity. It had nothing to do with others.
Hearing Yue Xin’s words, Yue Lingyi understood and did not ask further.
Instead, he walked to the fridge and took out a candy to put in his mouth.
Yue Xin didn’t turn around, but when she heard the sound of the candy wrapper being torn open, she reminded, “That’s my candy.”
Yue Lingyi corrected, “It’s Fourth Brother’s candy.”
Yue Xin said, “It’s the candy Fourth Brother gave me.”
Yue Lingyi maintained “It’s the candy Fourth Brother put in the fridge.”
After their daily bickering, the two of them did not notice anything wrong.
Today, Yue Lingchen was still busy with the company. Yue Lingyu was resting in his room, and the aunties had also gotten off work. There were only Yue Xin and Yue Lingyi in the entire living room. This place was originally quite deserted. After all, one of them was very lazy, and the other was quiet. However, it was as if a new bond had been woven between these meaningless words. However, neither of them realized it.
After Yue Lingyi failed to kill the dog, he clearly felt that his family was
avoiding him. Other than his eldest brother, no one else was willing to talk to him. At first, he did not understand, but he did not care for long. To him, they were just people who did not matter. Their attitude could not affect him. Just as his eldest brother had said, he had to learn to live alone. He could live well alone. First, he had to find something that interested him. In order to find such a thing, he went to the study at home and prepared to look for inspiration in the book to see if there was anything he was interested in. However, when he went to the study, he realized that there was already someone there. It was his fourth brother, Yue Lingyu.
Yue Lingyi didn’t know much about his fourth brother, and he didn’t want to know. Therefore, he ignored his fourth brother, who was looking at him, and minded his own business, looking for vague interests on the bookshelf.
However, when he looked around, all the books were similar and meaningless, just like his life..
