"His right here," Si Fuqing tapped Xie Yu's shoulder, a hint of mischief in her tone. "Go on, you've been 'sold.' Put on a good show."
Xie Yu, baffled, could only respond with a puzzled, "...?"
It wasn't until he was pulled by Serene Delight for a photo and autograph that he began to understand.
Before he could comment, he caught the scrutinizing gaze of Upon Brocade and quickly retreated behind Si Fuqing.
"What are you doing?" Si Fuqing asked, an eyebrow raised in curiosity.
"The internet says I'm the wealthy younger brother to Teacher Si," Xie Yu replied casually, a playful lilt in his voice. "As my older sister, you'll surely protect me."
Si Fuqing's eyes narrowed slightly, amusement tinged with incredulity. "Now's the time you forget you're two years older than me?"
Unashamed, Xie Yu grinned. "I'm adaptable."
He was, after all, well-practiced in dealing with the whims of Mrs. Xie.
