After the two noisy people left, Yue Lingchen handed Yue Xin hot milk. “You’re going to the competition tomorrow. Don’t drink anything cold tonight, or your stomach will feel uncomfortable.’
Yue Xin nodded. “Brother, are you sending me there tomorrow?”
Yue Lingchen rubbed Yue Xin’s head. “Big Brother not only wants to send you there tomorrow, but he will also wait for you to come out.”
“Okay!” After Yue Xin finished speaking, she felt that something was wrong and added, “Thank you, Big Brother!”
Yue Lingchen smiled. “What are you thanking me for?” Then, he looked up at Yue Lingyi and Yue Lingfeng, who had just reached the door, and his smile froze. “Yue Xin is competing tomorrow. Do you want to send her off?”
“Go!” The two of them replied in unison. After saying that, they even rolled their eyes at each other in disdain.
“Be quiet if you want to go. If you don’t finish ten laps tonight, you can’t go tomorrow!”
Only then did the two of them finally fall silent.
On the third day, Yue Xin was escorted to the competition venue by her four brothers and stood in the limelight. However, at this moment, she was not in the mood to care about the gazes of the people around her. She prayed in her heart that all the questions today were within the range she had memorized.
After the competition ended, the five of them ate outside. When they returned home, it was already dark.
After Yue Lingyi entered, his expression changed and he frowned. “There’s an unpleasant smell of blood.”
Yue Xin’s face was filled with confusion. Did Yue Lingyi, who dealt with flesh and blood every day, actually feel that the smell of blood was unpleasant? Just as she was about to speak, she heard her brother speak.
“Third Brother is home.”
Yue Xin realized that her brother, who had always been calm, choked when he said this.
What kind of person would Yue Lingyun, the third son of the Yue family and Yue Xin’s third brother be?
During the meal, he always sat in the corner. No one had ever heard him talk about his matters. He only talked to people he was interested in. He was talking about things that would fall on deaf ears, looking down on everyone, and doing big things in silence. Most importantly, he was very obedient. Yue Lingyun would do his best to fulfill all the orders given by the people he recognized, even if it meant death.
In Yue Xin’s memory, Third Brother died in order to complete a mission. However, since Third Brother should have died in the process of carrying out a mission, why did he bring the smell of blood home? Moreover, the smell of blood was very familiar, just like when Yue Lingyi had just returned.
Yue Xin thought of something and turned to look at Yue Lingyi. Yue Lingyi happened to be looking at her too. The moment the two of them looked at each other, all the fog was dispelled. The two of them saw the truth hidden under Third Brother’s halo at the same time.
Yue Xin silently took two steps back and pulled Fourth Brother away. Yue Lingyu was still very confused. He turned around and asked Yue Xin, “Sister, what’s wrong?”
Yue Xin’s face was serious and she didn’t explain anything. “There’s danger ahead.”
When Yue Lingyu heard this, he became nervous. Big Brother and Second Brother were still ahead. Didn’t he have to tell them to run together?
As Yue Xin spoke, Yue Lingyi also retreated. He covered Yue Lingyu’s eyes with one hand and whispered, “Big Brother is going to go crazy. Let’s go.”
When Yue Lingyu heard this, he quickly escaped with Yue Xin and Yue Lingyi.
Before he could take two steps, he heard Yue Lingchen ask in an abnormally gloomy voice, “Third Brother, where did the blood on your body come from?”
The way he addressed Third Brother was completely different from the way he addressed him previously. If Yue Lingchen calling him Third Brother first meant that it was good that he was home, then the way he addressed him now seemed to be saying, “Why are you back?”
The three people who had run far away looked at Yue Lingfeng, who was standing foolishly beside Yue Lingchen. After Yue Lingfeng said this, he heard an emotionless voice coming from not far ahead. “I just casually killed a noisy thing and didn’t have time to wash my hands.”
Yue Lingyun’s main focus was washing his hands, while Yue Lingchen’s main focus was on that noisy thing that was killed.
“You killed the toad in the yard?”
Yue Lingyun did not realize the seriousness of the matter. After all, when he joined the army, his elder brother had not inherited the company and did not have the habit of raising toads. In his impression, his elder brother was so powerful that he had no flaws. Therefore, when his elder brother asked this, he did not hesitate and answered very sincerely, “Yes!”
This sound was very loud and shocked everyone present.
Only then did Yue Lingfeng realize that something was wrong. He knew very well how much his brother valued the toad. He was afraid that he would be angered and was prepared to run away. Just as he was about to pull his sister along to run, he turned around and realized that the other three had already run far away. When he turned back, Yue Xin was still gesturing sign language to him.
[Run!]
Yue Lingfeng muttered, “Thank you, sister. You still have me in your heart, but I can’t run away anymore…”
On the first day that Yue Lingyun returned home, he successfully implicated his twin brother and held a funeral for Toad No. 2, who had died early.
The other three children were only not affected because they ran in time. Otherwise, the six children of the Yue family might have to keep watch for this Toad No. 2 tonight..
