“Do you have any idea about where you both are?” Gu Shangyan asked. Did they care about where they were? They would always start bickering anywhere with each other. “Every place has some rules and regulations but you guys have no respect for them. Would you like it when you would be thrown out of here?”
He rubbed his head in exasperation. Seriously, he had no idea what to do with the two of them. If there was something he could do to make them understand how important it was for them to grow up.
These two were in their twenties but they still behave as if they were kids. Even teenagers behave more maturely than them. They were still behaving like nursery kids.
An Xiulan and Lu Xuan pursed their lips. They both said at the same time, “I didn’t start the fight.”
Even now they would fight over who started the fight. Of course, Gu Shangyan knew that none of them was innocent. It must be Lu Xuan who had started the fight but it must be An Xiulan who had continued it and she would not stop until both of them would be stopped by another party.
These two were very competitive even about ending the fight. Yes, one person ending it would mean accepting defeat and how could these two accept defeat?
He wondered what would have happened if both of them had stayed in the same country while he was abroad. These two would have certainly killed each other. Just the thought was enough to give him even more headache.
“I don’t care who started it but I could see that none of you was ready to stop it, “Gu Shangyan said in a stern tone. “Xiulan and Xuan, instead of talking calmly, you both chose to fight at the most inappropriate place. Don’t forget to apologise to the staff and customers you have troubled.”
The staff around them wanted to intervene but they were the esteemed guests of the restaurant and seemed like affluent people. They decided to wait for a little before interfering as from their conversation, it didn’t sound like it was a serious fight. It was just bickering between two siblings. However, it would be wrong to say they were not troubled by this.
An Xiulan and Lu Xuan lowered their heads but nodded in the end. They understood that they were in the wrong. They should not have fought here. They should have fought outside where there would be no one to intervene in it.
The fight was stopped without a winner. Hah!
In a true sense, Gu Shangyan was calm to their storms.
“Now I will take my leave. I have some clients to attend to, “With this, he was gone. He had to attend to a very important client that was important for the new project that the company was working on. This was why he was here with Shen Yue.
Stopping the fight between the two of them might seem like an easy job but only Han Zixin knew how difficult it was for anyone else. Only Gu Shangyan could do this. Thankfully, he knew where to find the sane sibling or else his brother’s plan of breaking out the news to the twins would be ruined.
Han Nanxian should award him for the peacekeeping work that he had done today. Thinking this, Han Zixin ran his hand through his list hair.
“Why are they so silent and well-behaved?” Han Nanxian asked as they all entered the private dining room together.
Lu Xuan almost gave him a heart attack when he greeted him without sounding hostile. Even Song Xueyun was getting chills about the behaviour of the twins.
What was more shocking– the two didn’t even ask why Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun were together.
Song Xueyun was getting one shock after another this morning. She didn’t know what she had done to get so many shocks in a single day.
Han Zixin merely shrugged. If he dared to mention why those two were silent and well behaved he would earn the ire of the two dormant volcanoes who would burst anytime and he didn’t want to be the one to experience that scary thing. Thus, he shifted the topic of the conversation to something that even the twins didn’t ask about.
“You should tell them why you invited them here, ” Han Zizin asked the couple.
How would the two of them break the news that they were now a couple? Not just someone who was dating but someone who was legally married. Oh, the tantrum that his best friend was going to throw. He was getting a good feeling about it.
Don’t get him wrong. He loved his elder brother but it was a different kind of soothing feeling that he got whenever Hann Nannxian was getting grilled by anyone.
“Wait, does it mean you know about it?” Lu Xuan asked.
Stupid, Lu Xuan! Han Zixin groaned.
An Xiulan quickly turned her head to look at Han Zixin and asked, “Were you pretending all along that you didn’t know what was going on?”
What happened to the twins fighting with each other? Why was the knife pointed at his neck now? What had he done?
Lu Xuan scoffed, “What can you expect from your best friend? He is his brother’s brother. Of course, he will do everything that he says.”
Lu Xuan was saying as if he didn’t do similar things. He and Gu Shangyan were so close that they would not let their secrets leak. How could An Xiulan forget about the time when he hid Yoona being Gu Shangyan’s girlfriend from everybody? It was a coincidence that she found out about the two of them. Otherwise, she would never know. The secret was so tightly locked between the two brothers.
Han Zixin said looking at An Xiulan, “Don’t listen to your brother, he is just mean.”
“For the first time he is making sense, ” An Xiulan said.
Lu Xuan scoffed, “I always make sense, it’s just that some people never want to see it. It’s not my fault, is it? If someone wants to be blind, they are very much welcome to be so. Anyways, we should focus on the matter here.”
This started another round of bickering between the two of them.
“Lu Xuan! Don’t cross limits! It is Han Zixin! He never hides things from me, “She looked at Han Zixin and said, ”If he hides it, there must be a reason behind it.”
An Xiulan didn’t know about anyone. But she could guarantee about her best friend. She knew how difficult it was for both of them to keep secrets from each other. If there was something that she knew and she couldn’t tell him, she would feel so restless and sometimes this restlessness would turn to stomach ache. So, for the peace of her mind, she would always tell him every gossip because it was impossible for her to not tell him anything. And the case was similar for him.
Han Zixin pitifully nodded his head. Only his best friend understood him. Everyone else didn’t understand him or tried to understand him.
“Tell me why you didn’t tell me anything?”An Xiulan calmly asked him.
Han zixin pointed at Han Nanxian without any guilt. What was the need to feel guilt here? His brother was already married. There was no problem in pushing him under the bus but he had yet
to make her agree to be his girlfriend. They said always think about yourself before trying to save anyone else. How could he save his brother when he was in danger himself? Anyway, his brother would find a way to protect himself.
Genius shouldn’t depend on average people, right?
Moreover, he could neither afford to offend her nor her brother. After all, Lu Xuan needed to give his blessing to him and An Xiulan. He should take every step carefully.
[Tread carefully! Officer Han!]
An Xiulan turned to look at Han Nanxian and asked, “Teacher Han, what are you planning? I was thinking about you but you are not helping me here.”
She must be a fool to try to set him up with her Bestie but this man was making her second-guess her attempts. She would ask her bestie later why she was here with her ex-best friend and why Lu Xuan was invited here too!
First, she must have a good talk with her former tuition teacher.
Han Nanxian looked at his little brother in disbelief. He knew what happened here and what his little brother just did! There was no sense of filial piety! He was getting played by his younger brother here, could someone see it?
