You Are A Good Boy, Big Brother

"Don't get into trouble with that sis when you go out, Xiao Ran. Okay?"

"But… what if she finds me?" Hu Ran asked innocently.

"Then you tell me. I'll protect you."

Hu Ran put her hands together cheerfully at that. "You are a good boy, big brother."

Still, it was not as if he wanted to—he just had no choice.

"So… would you marry me, be my spouse?"

"Spouse… is that like, wife?"

Lowering the towel, Third Brother put his hands at Hu Ran's sides. "There's nothing good with marrying me, though. I don't get to have a say in this family, and you could get bullied by Second Sister while I'm not looking."

"Punch back, brother. Punch those who bully you."

Third Brother chuckled as he helped her up out of the washing basin.

Though they were meeting for the first time, he could treat Hu Ran patiently.

Actually, it was no different from an elder brother helping his younger sister.

"Alright, let's eat."
