77: Chapter 77 It's Over

Upon hearing the commotion outside, Fang Xun immediately sprang up.

Why were these girls back at a time like this?

"Don't say a word."

Fang Xun glanced at Uesugi Akemi and made a shushing gesture to her.

"Keep tidying up. You are not allowed to come out."

Seeing Uesugi Akemi nod fiercely, Fang Xun slowly pulled open the door and stepped out.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw several girls swaggering in through the entrance.

Among the four girls, Tang Xiaotang was the quickest to stride in.

This girl truly made herself completely at home.

Jiang Qin was being led by the hand, walking behind.

Shen Yue, who was of the same 'class' as Qi Lian, walked at the very back.

However, as soon as Qi Lian entered, she looked toward Fang Xun's room.

Besides Fang Xun, there was someone else in there.

Qi Lian frowned slightly, though she didn't know why she made that gesture.

She just felt a bit displeased.

"Brother, Brother! Why are you coming out so late?"

Tang Xiaotang noticed Fang Xun opening the door in a somewhat sneaky manner and curiously poked her head into Fang Xun's room.

But unfortunately, Fang Xun was standing right at his doorway and slammed the door shut with a snap.

"What's wrong? Do I need permission to come out now?"

Fang Xun immediately felt guilty but tried his best to maintain a normal tone, not giving the Little Green Tea a chance to push her luck.

"Brother, of course, I don't need to manage when you come out~"

The Little Green Tea stepped back but instead pushed Jiang Qin to the front.

"What about Qin Qin! Qin Qin, go! Brother must be hiding something bad in his room! Now is the time for a surprise inspection!"

Saying this, Tang Xiaotang pushed Jiang Qin forward two quick steps, intending to shove her into Fang Xun's room.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!!!!"

Fang Xun panicked instantly.

He had someone else in his room; if the girls saw her...

...Wait, that shouldn't be a problem. He was the boss in this house, what was he afraid of?

But Fang Xun still blocked the doorway.

Being shoved by Tang Xiaotang, Jiang Qin feigned resistance for a moment but was still pushed in front of Fang Xun with brute force.

Fang Xun tried to reach out and stop her.

But Jiang Qin was directly pushed by Tang Xiaotang, crashing into his embrace.

Fang Xun hadn't expected this to happen; he thought Jiang Qin would stop herself out of disgust.

Fang Xun, holding Jiang Qin, staggered and was pressed against the door.

The door was only ajar, and the three of them tumbled inside together.

Fang Xun lay flat on his back, looking up at Jiang Qin's pretty face with tightly pursed lips, and Tang Xiaotang's head poking around curiously.

"Ah!!!!"

It was better if Tang Xiaotang hadn't looked.

The moment she looked, she gasped in surprise!

"Brother, you're hiding a beauty!"

Uesugi Akemi was in the room. Although Fang Xun had gone out, she dared not run.

She worried that if she fled, the enraged Disaster Beast would kill everyone here.

At this moment, Uesugi Akemi was squatting pitifully in the corner, but Tang Xiaotang spotted her immediately.

"Wow, Brother, it's a Miko Sister too!"

Tang Xiaotang cried out again upon seeing the clothes Uesugi Akemi was wearing.

Hearing these two shouts, Fang Xun's heart turned completely cold.

"Miko Sister, are you Brother's friend?"

Tang Xiaotang didn't get up from Jiang Qin's body; instead, she scrambled over and pressed even tighter against Jiang Qin.

As for Fang Xun underneath Jiang Qin, since Qin Qin was his brother, she wasn't losing out.

Meanwhile, Jiang Qin's little mouth was pursed even tighter.

"Brother, who is this older sister?"

In front of outsiders, Jiang Qin still afforded her own brother some dignity.

"She is... she is... she is..."

"Miko Sister, are you Brother's girlfriend?" Tang Xiaotang uttered a shocking question.

At this moment, it wasn't just Fang Xun who was anxious.

Uesugi Akemi was even more anxious.

How dared these little girls pin down this Disaster Beast?

This was a Disaster Beast capable of punching the Cursed Dragon into dust.

The Great Minister had said that the Cursed Dragon could at least contend with a B-rank Disaster Beast.

Then what rank was this Disaster Beast?

How had this nation survived for so many years?

What should she say? Would saying the wrong thing upset that Disaster Beast?

Uesugi Akemi could only look toward Fang Xun, revealing a gaze mixed with helplessness and caution.

At this time, Jiang Qin's gaze finally turned over and landed on Uesugi Akemi.

She carefully and closely scrutinized the girl before her.

Her brother never had any female friends.

Every time he had a female friend in the past, her brother would boast about her fiercely in front of her, as if he was about to become a successful adult and had even thought of names for his children.

What a naive brother, every time, so full of enthusiasm.

But every single time, after they learned that Brother was an orphan who had a younger sister to raise,

They would all leave without a word.

Every time, Fang Xun would sulk to himself, never telling her.

He would just viciously eat the food she cooked, eating a lot and a lot.

Seeing her brother's dejected appearance, she would actually feel a tiny bit of glee in her heart.

Was she a little wicked?

Now, she looked at the girl in front of her.

Very beautiful.

Her hair, for some reason, looked a bit messy.

But her exquisite face was enhanced by the messy strands, giving her a touch of broken beauty.

The red and white miko outfit was very elaborate; every stitch and every thread was sewn with care and precision.

This miko outfit seemed custom-made for her.

Was she cosplaying?

This was really the type of girl her brother liked. In the past, Brother always boasted that he wanted a girlfriend who could cosplay.

He wanted his girlfriend to wear the cos outfit of his favorite character for him to see every day.

What was she cosplaying? Kikyo?

Jiang Qin's gaze then fell upon Uesugi Akemi's hands.

In her hand, she was clutching a small doll.

That was something her brother always forbade her from touching; it was his most treasured collection.

She still remembered that when she was little, whenever she tried to touch Brother's toys, he would panic and cry out.

He would rather buy her a pile of dolls she didn't like at all than let her touch those toys.

But now, those dolls, and Brother's entire collection, were scattered all over the floor.

These things he wouldn't let her touch were now being displayed and fiddled with by this older sister.

Just now, Brother was discussing his collection with her, right?

Brother really liked her, didn't he?

Brother really liked her, didn't he?

A flood of complicated thoughts flashed through her mind, and Jiang Qin's limbs grew increasingly stiff.

Finally, Jiang Qin turned to Fang Xun and managed a smile:

"Brother, who is this older sister? How did you two meet?"
