8 Finally out

"Little sister, you are finally out!" A handsome young man clad in purple and yellow garments with a devilish expression in his eyes exclaimed charmingly.

"Huh?" An Bing Qing was taken aback and she lose her steps when the gorgeous face popped out from nowhere and was just centimetres apart from hers.

"Careful!" The young man reached for her waist and secured her within his embrace.

"Little sister, you are causing trouble as soon as you are out. That ability only you can have. Father has been worried to death as you didn't come out. Your handsome brother was scolded in your behalf but it seems I will be scolded more. How did you become so thin? There's no meat in any place, tsk, tsk..." As he said so, he looked jokingly to her chest.

When he looked back to her beautiful face, he didn't see her flare up; she was just watching him in a daze.

While he was speaking, she didn't blink even once. He was her most beloved and only brother. In the past, she was only able to see him once after he became apprenticed to his teacher. How sad must he had been after coming back and learning about all the tragedies that happened in his absence; her death being the last one of them. Her heart ached as she heard all his complaints and jokes.

"What is it?" He asked in bewilderment.

Listening to his untold doubts, she reproached him in reply, "I got shocked to death. Hmph, I'm going to tell daddy". She pushed him and placed her hands on her hips.

"Owo, my dear little sister, don't jest; my ears get scared at the sight of father now". He clasped his hands in front of his charming countenance and made a begging motion.

She pouted her mouth and said with naughty eyes, "My dearest brother, I'm lacking many things".

"Hah... What th..."

"Gurgle..."

Just about to reply he heard her grumbling belly, he chuckled and clasped his hands behind his back, "It seems you are lacking food, don't worry, your brother has it".

She flushed and opened her mouth to argue back but suddenly a tray of green grapes was presented in front of her, "Spirit Green Grapes, how did you get them? They are my favourites!" She completely forgot that she also had got them in the past.

"Hmh... I go out from closed door cultivation a month ago but stayed in the training camp to consolidate my cultivation. My guards can go out now and brought me news of an auction. They were in the list, I know you love them and bid for them. But... I wasn't able to get many; another person was also bidding for them".

"Oh". She nodded and began to eat them without scruples; her hunger and watery mouth joined together, making the grumbling louder.

Before long, she paused and took a glimpse to his smiling brother; his smirking face was infuriating but she felt embarrassed, "Would you like some?"

He chuckled, "No, I get them for you".

She sulked, "Then, don't covet my stuff".

This time he couldn't endure it, such a sight was so lovely and he laughed aloud.

She paid him no heed and continued to savour the juicy grapes. They were acid but sweet, so tasty; she licked the flowing juice on her lips and fingers with her tongue at the end.

"What are you doing?" She asked as she licked her lips a last time.

He placed down the hands that were covering his eyes and said with a solemn tone, "Don't ever do that in front of people! Not even with family!"

"Pffh, what's that all about?"

"Don't smile nor laugh".

"Tsk, so eldest brother can mesmerize beauties with his devilish charm but I, the one who shares the same face and beauty mole, can't. You are mean", she was wronged.

"That's right, so what? Being mean is good".

They crossed eyes and both of them laughed.

Soon, a third one came to their ears, joining theirs.
