Chapter 122: The top student’s little Desktop Pet 16 (part 1 of 2)

This bolt out of the blue discovery wasn’t a misrepresentation from Kong Baiji’s angle, and the word ‘angry outburst’ was not enough to describe a tenth of his mood at this moment.

Because aside from shock and anger, there was also the resentful feeling of a beloved being stolen by others, worries about his younger brother, self-blame of having failed in properly protecting his younger brother……. in addition to other unclear as well as inexplicable emotions mixed in, which twisted and churned in Kong Baiji, that even tinged his vision with a bit of red.

Kong Baiji, who was now itching to raise a knife to immediately hack that bastard, who dared to covet his younger brother, to death, subconsciously clenched his hand. He then took a step forward, and held the left shoulder of his younger brother with his other hand.

Shen Tong, on the other hand, was already trying the windbreaker on, and was diligently fastening the buttons with his head down. The outfit’s material was obviously thick, yet he could still clearly feel the hot temperature coming from his shoulder, that he couldn’t help but look up, and gazed at Kong Baiji with a bit of confusion.

The grave and stern expression of the other at close range came into his view. Only then did he realize that they were very close to each other at this moment, and were almost sticking together. Shen Tong’s hair was already brushing against the side of Kong Baiji’s face, and Kong Baiji’s breath swept against his forehead, which surprisingly brought forth a few inexplicable traces of sultriness and ambiguities.

This strange atmosphere made Shen Tong want to instinctively move back, but the fitting room wasn’t wide from the start. The wall was already behind him, so, he simply couldn’t move back even if he wanted to. Kong Baiji’s line of sight uncontrollably fell on the youth’s rosy lips, and was completely unable to move away for a moment.

His younger brother, who had grown from a baby into a man, was in front of him, looking at him with an adorably tilted little face in a well-behaved manner, with long lashes that were slightly quivering due to unease. His natural slightly pursed lips were slightly opened due to confusion. Maybe due to his fondness in drinking milk everyday, his body still had a slight trace of milky fragrance. Kong Baiji seemed to be mesmerized, as he actually couldn’t resist from lowering his head a bit closer towards those lips.

But the confusion and obliviousness in Shen Tong’s gaze grew stronger and stronger. He completely had no idea what was actually happening, and hesitantly asked at last: “……big brother?”

Kong Baiji immediately came to his senses because of this sound, and completely froze.

— He had just-, actually wanted to kiss his little brother!

Kong Baiji didn’t expose any of his feelings on his face, but his heart was beating erratically, his fingers were also slightly quivering due to tension. He took a deep breath, and arduously kept a calm expression on the surface, before slowly straightening his body up. He released his hold on the youth’s shoulder, then moved his hand to the soft hair on the other’s forehead, and helped him remove a small piece of down stuck on his hair ends when he changed his clothes, “……there’s something on your hair.”

“Oh.”

The youth believed this without a doubt, and turned his attention back to the buttons of the windbreaker. After everything was done, he straightened up his shirt collar while asking Kong Baiji with a smile: “Big brother, does it look good?”

Shen Tong was truly relatively slow-witted in emotional matters. However, his lack of doubt towards Kong Baiji wasn’t due to his slow-wittedness, but because of trust. Although Kong Baiji didn’t carry the Shen surname, but Shen Tong had always treated him as a biological older brother. So, even if they had drifted apart in the recent years, that wholehearted trust had still not changed.

Kong Baiji fixedly look at the youth’s smile, as the depth in his eyes became increasingly darker, then replied with a deep voice after a while: “Yes.”

Shen Tong was asking about the clothes, but Kong Baiji’s reply was regarding the person. In Kong Baiji’s eyes, his little brother would always be the most beautiful. He had a great affection towards the other side from the moment he laid his eyes on that little bun in that year. The eyes of the little bun, who had looked over, were so clean and beautiful, and were also full of attachment. His appearance when he repeatedly called him older brother even made his heart soften.

In a blink of an eye, that little doll running behind him had already grown up.

His figure quickly changed, from a chubby little bun to a tall and slender youth. His appearance also became more and more refined, which could attract the attention of others no matter where he goes. He loves him so much, and has been protecting him since he was little, practically giving him everything he wants, helping him clean up his mess, and lending him a hand on everything. He also wished he could do everything for him in advance. He couldn’t even bear to see him be wronged, and would still be unable to bear it even if he was only a bit wronged. Kong Baiji had given up on deceiving himself at this point, and admitted that his feelings was really not of normal siblings. He also understood that the emotion he had after seeing the hickey really wasn’t an outburst of anger, but of jealousy, jealous of that man who had kissed him.

His face involuntarily became gloomy after having thought of this. Another text message notification sounded from the mobile phone Shen Tong brought with him.

Ever since Shen Tong had returned home, this notification sound in the mobile phone hadn’t stopped, and would sound every now and then. The aura in Kong Baiji’s body immediately became cold, which also made Shen Tong notice that something was amiss, so he hesitantly asked again: “.…..big brother?”

Not having received any response, thus, he asked with concern: “Brother, what’s wrong with you?”

Kong Baiji feebly replied at last: “It’s nothing.”

Mother Shen was still outside, the shopping mall he was in was also a public location. Needless to say, Kong Baiji wouldn’t question his little brother’s relationship with Gu Qiange at this time regardless of how important it was. Nevertheless, Shen Tong knew that when he usually says ‘nothing’, this actually means that he was truly angry. So, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat anxious, that even his brows were slightly scrunched, “You’re angry?”

After all, having grown up for so many years together, Shen Tong would naturally have a certain understanding in Kong Baiji’s character, in addition to the ineffable intuition. So, he firmly believes that the other party’s anger was caused by him. So, he subconsciously reached out and pulled Kong Baiji’s sleeve, as he did as a child, and softly voiced: “Brother, don’t be angry. I was wrong, okay?”

In fact, he really had no idea what he did wrong at all, but only knew that this was the right thing to say, because even if the other got angry, it would also go away soon. Because it was the same in the past. Irregardless of whatever mistake Shen Tong had done, so long as he obediently admits his mistakes, then everything would pass.
