Chapter 40 - Let's See

The commotion upstairs immediately caught the attention of Di Yi and Di Er. After sharing a look, the two of them sprinted towards the bottom of the staircase.

And to say that they were surprised to witness such a scene was an understatement.

Di Yi even thought that Xia Jiannan was ruthless back there, Xia Jinhu's right arm almost got dislocated.

As a matter of fact, in his perspective, Xia Jinhu was fortunate that his older brother did not throw him over his shoulder.

If he did, it would be without a doubt that Xia Jinhu would need at least two months to recover from the injuries that he might sustain from the fall.

Because everyone was focused on Xia Jinhu, no one noticed the shocked Butler Zuo who was standing immobile at the top of the stairs.

How could he have ever thought that he would see the Eldest Young Master fighting with the Second Young Master the moment they saw each other?

"Young Masters!" Butler Zuo was frantic as he hurriedly went over the two Xia brothers.

The Master and the Madam would be coming out of their room at any moment. If they happened to see this, he didn't know how to explain.

Just as he was about to separate the two, Butler Zuo heard Xia Jinhu say 'Don't you love me anymore?'

This made Butler Zuo froze in his tracks. He was not sure how he was supposed to react.

What was with this situation?

One moment they were fighting, the next they were talking about love?

Even if Butler Zuo used all the time in the world to think, he could not really comprehend what was happening.

With so many people arriving at the scene, it was impossible for Xia Jiannan not to take notice of them.

Xia Jiannan's face was filled with black lines as he glared at a certain idiot clinging to him.

He was starting to doubt if this crybaby was actually his blood brother.

What nonsense was this idiot spouting just now?

"Bro! Answer me! Don't you love me anymore?" Xia Jinhu continued to latch onto Xia Jiannan's right arm, preventing him from taking a step down the stairs.

Xia Jiannan's eyebrows knitted together, glancing down at Xia Jinhu threateningly.

He really didn't want to be entangled with this younger brother of his so early in the morning.

"Bro! Bro! Answer me!" Xia Jinhu wailed, not noticing the annoyed expression on his brother's face. "I'll never let you go if you don't answer me!"

Xia Jiannan ignored him and tried to shrug him off.

He had had enough of Xia Jinhu's nonsense!

It was then that the dense Xia Jinhu realized that they were not alone.

Xia Jinhu looked over at their old butler, furrowing his brows as he also took notice of the two well-dressed men downstairs. "Hm?"

While he was distracted by Di Yi and Di Er, Xia Jiannan took this opportunity to push Xia Jinhu away as his gaze met Di Yi's amused ones.

Following his line of sight, Butler Zuo clapped his hands. "Oh, yes! They are Eldest Young Master's bodyguards, Di Yi and Di Er. They just arrived a few moments ago."

Xia Jinhu nodded his head, looking at Di Yi and Di Er with his scrutinizing gaze, seemingly trying to figure out if they were suited for the job or not.

It seemed like he had totally forgotten the pain in his arm and the fact that his fragile little heart was broken because his older brother didn't love him anymore.

Arranging his suit, Xia Jinhu put up a dignified expression as he stood in front of his older brother.

When he was being serious, Xia Jinhu could actually project an imposing aura on par with Xia Jiannan's.

"Let's see what they are capable of."

With that, Xia Jinhu took a step forward.

Xia Jinhu was planning to put on a dominant act, but before he could even reach the bottom of the stairs, he suddenly stumbled on his feet.

"Aaahhh!"

There were still quite a few steps, but who would have thought that he would suddenly trip over his own feet before he could walk all the way down the stairs!
