Dong Lijia wasn't happy to hear Luo Yuanjun call his sister Fat Ball so straightforwardly either. "Can you please stop calling her that? Aren't you afraid that she might kick your ass?"
Luo Yuanjun glanced at Lin Wenwen, then said to Dong Lijia, "To be honest, I'd be scared if she put me straight down. She's so big after all. But, don't you know about your sister? She won't hit me."
Dong Lijia shrugged and said, "You better be careful. If you did get beaten up, don't blame me for not warning you!"
If that conversation happened in the past, he would have kicked Luo Yuanjun's ass. But now, it was a stranger wearing his sister's skin. For that reason, he felt it to be less related to himself. But still, he kindly gave Luo Yuanjun a warning.
After all, whoever was wearing his sister's skin now was able to fight! That person had gotten used to her sister's extra heavy body lately. He had tried fighting her already. He had some martial art experiences, yet he was punched down nonetheless.
Speaking of fighting, the quiet Deng Chenfei was actually the best fighter among all of Dong Lijia's friends. A part of his family was related to some gangsters, so he brawled a lot since he was a little kid. If he hadn't been training himself since little, he would have been killed many times in kids fight or by the enemies of his family.
Luo Yuanjun looked at Dong Lijia in a weird way and said, "She can hit me? She doesn't have it in her, not even if I stand here and let her punch me. This isn't right. You weren't like this. Dong Lijia, have you changed? Don't you care about your sister anymore? Is it because you now have some new friends?"
Dong Lijia glared at him and said, "Alright, shut up! Why are you always laughing at my sister? You're a grown man now. Can you behave yourself?"
Luo Yuanjun was a naughty one. He liked to play with Dong Lijia and make fun of Dong Xinxin. He often bullied Dong Xinxin when she was little, so she really didn't like him. No matter how she warned him, he wouldn't stop. He teased her and bullied her every time he saw her. He sometimes went too far, and when that happened, Dong Lijia would beat him up. But, in just a few days, he would forget about that and do it all over again.
He couldn't bully her physically anymore when they both grew up. However, he grew even more sharp-tongued than before. Dong Xinxin was an introverted girl, so she tried her best to avoid him. She wanted very much to kick his ass, but she was too weak to do that.
Their relationship was actually a little complicated. They weren't friends; they didn't really like each other. Luo Yuanjun always took the initiative to displease Dong Xinxin, and she always tried to avoid him. But weirdly, he couldn't stand letting other people make fun of her except for Dong Lijia, her brother. He would not allow anyone but himself, Dong Lijia, or Deng Chenfei to bully Dong Xinxin.
Lin Wenwen rolled her eyes toward Luo Yuanjun, then walked past him up to Dong Lijia and said, "Are you going to the beach? I'm going too."
In fact, she only wanted to tell Dong Lijia that she wanted to go to the beach. As for the first question, that was actually unnecessary. She didn't care if Dong Lijia and his friends would go or not. If they wouldn't go, she would go by herself.
"You want to go?" Dong Lijia looked at her with surprise.
"Yeah. Your sister wants to go. What? Is there a problem?" said Lin Wenwen blandly.
Something crossed Dong Lijia's mind when he heard Lin Wenwen's words. He thought for a moment and then said, "No… Alright, we'll go."
Hearing that, Lin Wenwen turned and went upstairs, leaving the others in the living room quiet.
A short while later, Luo Yuanjun came over and said to Dong Lijia, "I have a question. At my birthday party and today, why is she being weird? She's like a totally different person. You just said that she might kick my ass… That's not true, is it?"
Dong Lijia gave him a cold glance and said, "I've told you not to underestimate my little sister now. You might have your ass kicked, believe it or not. You can give it a try."
As he said that, Qin Jiao and Luo Yuanjun both paused with surprise.
Dong Lijia then turned to glance at Wu Minghao, who was sitting aside quietly the whole time. "Young Master Wu, I've been seeing you a lot recently. Have you gotten used to the social circle in the city yet?"
Wu Minghao was a single child, and he had returned from abroad earlier this year. Recently, he had started to make friends with the other rich kids in the city.
Hearing Dong Lijia talk to him, Wu Minghao wore a mild smile on his beautiful face and said, "Hm, I didn't know you guys well before. Thankfully, Mr. Luo is quite an annoying one."
While speaking, he glanced at Luo Yuanjun, who was walking toward him. He was trying to say that he only came here for the sake of Luo Yuanjun, because he and Luo Yuanjun were pretty close. Luo Yuanjun liked to make friends and hang out with them. After learning about Wu Minghao's return, he had been constantly asking him out.
As everybody knew, Young Master Luo was a very annoying person. If he liked someone, he would keep bothering that person. The harder that person tried to ignore him, the more excited he would be.
On hearing Wu Minghao's words, Dong Lijia hurriedly nodded in agreement, "Yeah, yeah. I am so unlucky to grow up together with someone like him."
"Oi! Is it really okay for you to say that right in front of me? Don't I deserve any respect?" Luo walked to him and gave him a kick, then sat back down.
"Go and get ready. We'll drive there this afternoon. I can't believe that Fat Ball asked to go with us. I wonder what's wrong with her." After sitting down, Luo Yuanjun wore a confused look again.
Dong Lijia kicked him back and said, "I've fed the respect for you to dogs. You have no respect from me now!"
Luo Yuanjun kicked him again under the table, "There are girls here! Are you blind? Can't you behave yourself in front of the ladies?"
Apart from Qin Jiao and Lin Yuehui, another girl was on the scene. She had been sitting there expressionlessly all the time. On the boys' side, aside from Luo Yuanjun, Dong Lijia, and Wu Minghao, two other boys were there. They weren't as close to Dong Lijia as Deng Chenfei and Luo Yuanjun were, but they were friends too.
Deng Chenfei watched the two boys' childish interaction; he had gotten used to that already. He turned to the stairs, and then glanced at Dong Lijia. He was thinking about Dong Lijia's attitude.
He somehow felt that something was wrong with Dong Xinxin. He had noticed that long ago, but couldn't tell what exactly was not right.
She still looked like the same person, but he felt that she had changed. Even Dong Lijia's attitude toward her was different from before. What on earth had happened?
