It's Not Easy Being Your Love Rival's Big Brother

Chapter 26: After Being Taken Away By His Little Brother

Pei Yuyang’s birthday party was hosted by Young Master Pei himself, so most of those invited were his friends and acquaintances, and there were also some who specially came to curry Young Master Pei’s favor. These people also brought their own male partners.

They were people in the same circle and were similar in age, so they were usually very open when they were having fun. At this moment, of course, they weren’t very restrained. When they drank more, they started to show off how much better their own ‘wife’ was: not only did they look beautiful, but their bedroom kungfu was also excellent.

Pei Yuyang, who was drinking with them, was too lazy to manage the group’s blabbing. His attention was always on Wei Han and Jiang Chengrui over there.

Compared to those cynical buddies, Wei Han and Jiang Chengrui seemed out of place. These two special guests were still dressed in their college student clothes, and one was eating while the other was drinking.

Since he’d already promised Pei Yuyang, Wei Han also had to abide by the agreement and pulled Jiang Chengrui along with him.

Jiang Chengrui was wearing headphones and listening to music while sipping a glass of juice. As for Wei Han, he was hovering in the buffet area all along. Everything on the long table was delicious. Wei Han held a small plate in his hand, and with his two cheeks bulging and mouth chewing unceasingly, he ate very happily.

If you don’t eat free of charge, then what would you eat? For this big stomach king foodie, it was simply the greatest happiness.

“Silly Han, you can’t run halfway through.”

Jiang Chengrui walked over and pulled on Wei Han’s clothes. On the surface, he pretended to be indifferent, but in fact, his heart was still nervous, especially when he could feel Pei Yuyang cast his two hot eyes at him from time to time.

Wei Han felt a bit choked and patted his chest, taking a sip of fruit juice. “Mm…ahem, you can rest assured. I’ll be your grass protecting ambassador and I’ll make sure that Foolish Man-Sheep won’t touch a single of your hair.” (T/N: flower protecting for girls, and grass protecting for guys)

Wei Han’s voice hadn’t fallen when Qi Zhifan appeared as the finale.

Without a companion, Qi Zhifan came by himself. Unlike his usual appearance, Qi Zhifan was suited up and his front fringe was also combed up, changing into a new hairstyle. Immediately, he had more of the air of a mature man. Wei Han was in a trance. It was as if he’d returned to his past life and was seeing that twenty-five years old Qi Zhifan.

He’d thought that as tall, rich and handsome as Qi Zhifan was, they simply weren’t in the same world. Who knew that he had now become his older brother and that they’d been living under the same roof for almost a year.

As the last one to come, Qi Zhifan immediately became the focus of everyone present.

“Good Ah Fan, you’ve appeared. I thought you wouldn’t come.”

Pei Yuyang, holding a glass of wine, chuckled and came over to greet him. When he neared Qi Zhifan, he whispered in his ear, “Tsk, I didn’t see you so meticulous at my birthday in previous years. You’ve fixed yourself up like an adult today. Who are you trying to seduce ah?”

“……” Qi Zhifan didn’t say anything. He took the glass in Pei Yuyang’s hand and directly clinked glasses with him, quietly peering out of the corner of his eye at the not far away Wei Han.

After that, Wei Han took leave of Jiang Chengrui and rushed to the toilet. Pei Yuyang saw that Jiang Chengrui was alone and a bit awkward, so he walked over and also conveniently pulled his hand.

Jiang Chengrui was shocked and wanted to pull it out, but Pei Yuyang’s grip was quite tight, making Jiang Chengrui temporarily unable to break free.

“Curlie, don’t be nervous. I’m here.” Pei Yuyang grinned and his head went straight to Jiang Chengrui’s chest. Jiang Chengrui frowned and kept dodging. Actually, he really wanted to kick him.

But today was his birthday, and there were so many of his friends on the scene. Jiang Chengrui was indeed a bit embarrassed. He also had to take Pei Yuyang’s face into consideration and didn’t want this young master to lose face in public.

As for when he’d learned to stand in Pei Yuyang’s point of view and started to think for his sake? Jiang Chengrui hadn’t considered this issue.

Seeing Pei Yuyang hold Jiang Chengrui’s hand and lead him to the center of the venue, the other people around him also applauded. Although this was a very simple move, but it also showed the status of Jiang Chengrui in Pei Yuyang’s heart. Everyone was well aware that this was the ‘he’ in Young Master Pei’s heart.

“Curlie, it’s my birthday today. I only have one small request. Can you promise me?” A smiling expression flowed from Pei Yuyang’s pair of peach blossom eyes and his tone was ambiguous.

Jiang Chengrui froze. “Wh…what?”

Pointing to the multi-layered cake next to him, Pei Yuyang smiled and said, “Cut the cake with me.”

On this side, Wei Han had just finished in the toilet and went to the sink to wash his hands. Qi Zhifan suddenly came out.

“Wei Han, come with me.”

Wei Han was a bit scared. “Go…go where? I can’t go. I promised Little Jiang–”

His words didn’t finished when Qi Zhifan suddenly bent down and unexpectedly picked his whole body up!

“Hey, Odd Trouble, you…what the hell are you doing?” Wei Han shouted while being carried on his shoulder, both hands and feet constantly flailing. This kind of behavior was completely incomprehensible.

“……” Qi Zhifan was too lazy to heed him and he carried Wei Han straight out.

“Hey, bro hasn’t washed his hands yet!”

Wei Han, who was forced to leave the birthday party, was apologetic to Jiang Chengrui in his heart. He followed Qi Zhifan to another upscale restaurant nearby.

Before this, Wei Han was still very angry about Qi Zhifan’s simple and rough “take away” approach, but at the moment when he saw the place, his grievances also disappeared.

However, when they came closer and he felt the atmosphere here, Wei Han immediately felt that something was wrong.

Qi Zhifan seemed to have reserved the place. There were several bright abstract paintings on the wall of the restaurant. Not far away, there were people playing the violin, the melodious and soothing tune letting people’s mind and body relax when they hear it.

Under the chandelier, not mentioning the steak, pasta and other Western-style dishes on the table, the whole table was also carefully arranged. From the tablecloth, table and chairs to the cutlery, they all had unique styles or patterns. There were many flowers on the table. In addition to the ordinary candles, there were also some scented candles in the middle. Their scent was subtle, faintly dispersing in the candlelight.

Lights, candlesticks, flowers, wine and food: this romantic and brimming with love atmosphere made Wei Han shudder.

“Qi Zhifan, this…this is a candlelight dinner, right?”

“Yeah, sit down.” Qi Zhifan nodded slightly. He also didn’t call a waiter to come over and personally poured a glass of wine for Wei Han.

Seeing that his little brother was so sincere, Wei Han didn’t want to disappoint him and slowly sat down. But he also increasingly didn’t understand what Qi Zhifan was doing.

“You don’t think it’s strange that us two brothers are having a candlelight dinner together?”

Qi Zhifan raised up his eyes. “How is it strange?”

“Uh, it’s a bit of a waste of the romance, and if you want to eat, can’t you eat at Pei Yuyang’s? Why did you have to spend your own money?”

Qi Zhifan: “……”

Looking at Qi Zhifan’s stiff face, Wei Han didn’t dare to say anymore. He immediately opened his mouth to eat. Odd Trouble was willing to waste money, but Wei Han was unwilling to waste gourmet food.

After eating two slices of steak, his mobile phone abruptly vibrated and Wei Han took a look. It was a reply message sent by Chu Chuanyao.

Before, Wei Han had wanted to ask Chu Chuanyao out, but Chu Chuanyao once again rejected Wei Han, stating that he had to go to the practical training inquiry with his classmates tomorrow. Also, this semester’s end was quickly approaching, and the following week, he intended to concentrate on preparing for the exams.

Ai, Wei Han sighed at the bottom of his heart. He knew that in fact, Chu Chuanyao was reviewing the books and striving so hard to be the top student was because he just wanted to get closer to his favorite Teacher Dong.

Wei Han suddenly wanted to slap himself and suddenly felt that he was cowardly and useless. He’d tried so hard to get into S Uni so that he and Chu Chuanyao could be schoolmates and he’d have more chances to be in contact with him. At present, he got along well with him, but their relationship…

Silently putting away his phone, Wei Han had no appetite left and lazily said, “Odd Trouble, let’s play rock-paper-scissors.”

Qi Zhifan: “Hmm?”

“Rock-paper-scissors. Two out of three wins, and the loser has to drink.”

Such a childish game, if it were someone else, Qi Zhifan would have scoffed at it a long time ago, but now, the other person was Wei Han…

Qi Zhifan had no choice but to nod his head.

After playing a few rounds, Wei Han always lost, and he also always drank. He often raised his head and downed it in one gulp, and several times, he’d also choked.

“Wei Han, stop drinking.” Qi Zhifan grabbed Wei Han’s hand and stopped him from lifting his glass.

The tipsy Wei Han shook his head and insisted, “Let me drink. Bro wants to drown his sorrows.”

After several glasses of wine, the result was, not a moment later, Wei Han’s listless head sprawled on the table and he was already drunk.

Qi Zhifan looked at him like that and his look was a bit complicated. Suddenly, he heard Wei Han muttered to himself, shouting again and again, “Little Yao…Little Yao…”

“Can you not think of Chu Chuanyao? Do you like him so much?” Qi Zhifan’s brows wrinkled in an instant.

Everyone said that after drinking, the truth spills out. After Wei Han got drunk, he shouted out another man’s name in front of him, making him feel quite upset.

“Oh, I’m…I’m sorry. I know that mentioning him will remind you of sad things again…” Wei Han stared blankly at Qi Zhifan, his eyes blurred, and gave a drunken hiccup. “Eh, Odd Trouble, don’t frown. Smile for this uncle.”

Qi Zhifan’s face was getting darker and darker. He’d be a ghost if he could smile at this time.

Qi Zhifan didn’t smile, but Wei Han himself had a silly smile, and he used his finger to lift up Qi Zhifan’s chin. He teased, “Be good and smile once. You’re very good-looking when you smile.”

Was this also his true feelings? Qi Zhifan was stunned. He held the back of Wei Han’s hand and still wanted to ask something. But with his head dizzied, Wei Han’s eyes rolled and the next second, his head fell into Qi Zhifan’s bosom. This time, he was thoroughly drunk into unconsciousness.

Qi Zhifan drew Wei Han into his arms. Feeling that it was still not enough, his arms couldn’t help but exert more strength, encircling him more tightly.

Gazing at Wei Han’s face right in front of him, Qi Zhifan felt his own irregular heartbeat, and lowered his head, biting those lips.

In the moment of lip-to-lip contact, he finally determined his own intention for Wei Han.

The next morning, Wei Han, who had just woken up, was bewildered. He just wanted to raise his hands to rub the temples on both sides, but suddenly found that he couldn’t move. His upper body was surrounded by an arm!

Wait…wait a moment. What was this situation?

Wei Han was frightened and immediately woke up. His eyes suddenly jerked around, and only then did he realize that he was sleeping next to Qi Zhifan. The two of them actually slept in the same bed all night?!
