Qiao Yu turned to face the two, his usual gentle expression was replaced by a look as if he had nothing left to live for.
“Brother, my dear brother, please spare me!”
“You little brat! Xiao Yue didn’t even say anything! And you are ruining my plan.” Qiao Ze took a few steps forward and rapped Qiao Yu on the head.
Qiao Yu looked at Qiao Yue with bitterness. For some reason, Qiao Yue actually understood what he meant.
He was basically saying “Don’t drag me along if you want to die”.
When Qiao Yue saw Qiao Yu’s reaction, her curiosity was piqued. Was Qiao Ze’s movie that bad?
Qiao Yue raised her eyebrows and smirked. “Come on, fourth brother, let’s watch it together! It’ll be more fun with more people.”
Qiao Yu’s eyes widened as he looked at Qiao Yue. Didn’t he know this kid’s personality? How could he like that kind of romantic movie? It was obvious that Qiao Yue wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
Qiao Yue’s smile was harmless, but her heart was racing. If she watched the movie alone with Qiao Ze, she wouldn’t be able to escape even if she wanted to.
“Qiao Yue is right. It’s more fun to watch movies with more people.” Qiao Ze nodded in agreement.
“Then you should also invite second brother, Qiao Xin, and Qiao Ying! ”
“Xiao Yue, why don’t you come with me to my room now?” Qiao Ze faced Qiao Yue, ignoring Qiao Yu completely.
Qiao Yu tutted and mumbled, “You’re always picking on the weak.”
Qiao Yue saw that Qiao Ze was ready to pull her to his room the moment she nodded. She quickly shook her head and said, “Third brother, let me go back to my room to wash up. If we watch the movie till late, I’ll sleep in your room.”
That was what she said, but how could Qiao Yue spend the night with him? She just wanted to put Qiao Ze at ease.
“Okay. Quickly wash up and come.”
At Qiao Yu’s angry gaze, Qiao Yue threw him a look that said “good luck to you” and quickly sneaked back to her room.
She had noticed that Qiao Yu had been staring at her shoulder, so he must have noticed that something was wrong.
Qiao Yue went into her bathroom and removed the gauze that was already soaked in blood. A scar as long as her finger appeared in sight.
She took off her shirt and sleeveless undershirt, a body full of scars appeared in the mirror. To a normal girl, such a body was ugly, but to Qiao Yue, these scars were proof that she had lived through years of suffering.
She cleaned blood off her wound with saline, and then applied an ointment to stop the bleeding. Finally, she wrapped the wound with gauze. Because she had suffered many injuries, she was very skilled in treating wounds and finished changing her dressing in less than 20 minutes.
As Qiao Yue finished putting on her clothes, she heard a knock on the door. Qiao Yue was ready to ridicule Qiao Ze, but she didn’t expect to see Qiao Yu when she opened the door.
Qiao Yu’s smile was gentle, but his gaze on her was sinister.
“Fifth brother, are you done washing up? It’s movie time.” Qiao Yu’s every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
Qiao Yue cleared her throat and said tentatively, “I’m done. let’s go!”
There is a room at the Qiao residence dedicated to watching movies. Qiao Ze had asked for the room to be tidied up and stocked with drinks, tea, and snacks.
A big screen that covered half a wall and the dim lights made the place look like a theater. When Qiao Yu and Qiao Yue arrived, Qiao Ze was already waiting for them in the room.
Qiao Ze patted the seat next to him, motioning for Qiao Yue to sit.
“What kind of movie is third brother in?” Qiao Yue asked as she walked to Qiao Ze and took the popcorn he offered.
“‘A Story Sadder Than Sadness’”, Qiao Yu said before Qiao Ze could speak.
“What?” Qiao Yue’s mind was filled with question marks when she heard this.
“The title of the movie Brother Ze acted in.”
Qiao Yu then sat down on a single seat sofa and yawned.
“A romance movie?” Qiao Yue asked unsurely. The movie title was cryptic.
“Yes, you may not pay much attention to the entertainment industry, but our Brother Ze is metaphysical. His TV series and foreign blockbusters are all excellent, and his acting skills have been praised countless times. But every movie he makes in China is bad, without exception.” Qiao Yu picked up a piece of preserved fruit and threw it into his mouth and chewed slowly.
It was probably because of the dark environment and the people he was familiar with, that Qiao Yu didn’t weld a mask on his face like he usually did.
“Talking too much. Watch the movie.”
Qiao Yu cried out in pain after being hit by Qiao Ze’s apple, but he quieted down when the movie started.
