"Why should I tell you this?" Liu Huai Qu laughed self-deprecatingly, "Come in, that little girl, Rou'er, has been waiting for you for a long time."

"It seems like my sister is living a good life. However, I remember that Alliance Head Liu did not want to stay here." Tang Ming looked at Liu Huai Qu inquiringly. Liu Huai Qu knew what Tang Ming was thinking: "Soft is very pleasing, no one would hate such a little girl."

"However, I don't have any presumptuous thoughts. I only think of her as a little sister to be pampered." Liu Huai Qu looked at Tang Ming in a daze. "Rather than worrying about me, it's better to be on guard against that slave beside Rou'er."

Tang Ming did not say a word. In front of strangers, Tang Ming was always silent. Liu HuaiQu also knew Tang Ming's personality, so she was not surprised that he did not hear his reply.

Tang Ming could clearly feel that Liu HuaiQu was more wary of him than he was of him.

It was as if he was afraid Tang Ming would discover something.

It was also because of this precaution that Tang Ming didn't discover anything. Besides his abnormal behavior and the fact that he knew a bit too much, Tang Ming was unable to find any useful information.

Tang Ming and Liu Huai Qu entered one after the other. In the courtyard, Chu Yi looked at the two who were unharmed: "Done."

"Yes, it's done." Liu Huai Qu looked at the book held in Junior High's hands with a smile still on his face, "Senior Junior High, are you reading for Rou'er?"

"Yes, I thought you would take a long time to solve your problems." There was no awkwardness of being discovered at first. With a gentle gaze, he appeared to be elegant and graceful, with the temperament of someone who had been subservient to others since childhood.

"Sigh, Big Brother Huai Qu is back." Tang Rou'er was holding a plate of osmanthus cake as she looked at Chu Yi: "Uncle Chu, didn't you say that it would take Big Brother Huai Qu a long time to settle this matter?"

"Alliance Head Liu, you are quite skilled. It was a mistake on my part." The first book was put down, but the meaning of his words was unclear.

"Oh right, I was just talking about it. When big brother Huai Qu and big brother Huai Qu come back, we will be sworn brothers just like the people that first uncle has read to me." Tang Rou suddenly clasped her hands together and looked at Tang Ming and Liu Huai Qu with sparkling eyes.

Tang Ming: "…"

Liu Huai Qu: "…"

The two of them looked at each other, and the wariness in their eyes did not decrease in the slightest. Instead, it became deeper and deeper.

These two had different thoughts, but they wanted to become brothers?

"Can't I?" Tang Rou'er looked at the two of them in disappointment. They looked a bit like how Chu Junran gave Tang Ming's little cat when he was young. He didn't get what he wanted, so he looked at her in this manner.

Tang Ming couldn't bear to see her like this.

"Alright."

Liu Huai Qu was the first to speak. Tang Ming and Chu Yi looked at Liu Huai Qu in surprise, only to discover that Liu Huai Qu was staring at Tang Rou in a daze, as if he would cry in the next moment.

"You … "Why are you looking at me like that? You, don't tell me you're going to cry, right?" Tang Rou'er was also shocked by Liu HuaiQu's gaze and carefully looked at him, "Big Brother HuaiQu, you … Are you alright? "

"I'm fine." Liu Huai Qu looked away. Tang Rou'er blinked: "I got it. Have you thought of that sister of yours?"

"Sister?" This was Tang Ming's first time in Liu City so he naturally did not know about Liu Huai Qu's actual situation. In addition, he did not know much about Liu Huai Qu in the past. If it wasn't for Liu Huai Qu's fame and the fact that he had the power of being number one in his generation, Tang Ming might not have even known about Liu Huai Qu.

"Yeah, I heard that Big Brother Huai Qu had a younger sister who died young, so Big Brother Huai Qu must be sad because I thought of my younger sister, right?" Tang Rou looked at Liu Huai Qu, who laughed.

"That's right, I miss her. I remember her acting like a spoiled child in my arms." Liu Huai Qu did not refute, but Tang Ming could not bring himself to speak.

Tang Rou'er pulled Liu Huai Qu along. "Brother Huai Qu, don't be like this. If possible, you can treat me as your little sister. Don't be sad."

After she finished speaking, Tang Rou'er tiptoed and patted Liu HuaiQu's head while complaining, "Seriously, why are you and big brother so tall? You make me look like a little shorty."

"Right, where is Servant Zheng?" As Tang Ming said this, he pulled Tang Rou'er away from Liu Huaiqiu's side without leaving a trace, "Why haven't I seen him?"

"Follow behind me all day long. If you annoy him to death, I'll shake him off." Tang Rou'er giggled as she opened her mouth in an attempt to pass the test. However, Tang Ming did not use this move at all. He only looked at Tang Rou'er, and she was speechless: "He's injured."

"I'm hurt, what's going on!" Tang Ming's gaze left Liu Huai Qu's body. Tang Rou'er also noticed Tang Ming's gaze and hurriedly explained: "That's not it, big brother. It has nothing to do with big brother Huai Qu. Big brother Huai Qu wasn't here at that time."

"Sorry, I didn't protect Rou Er." Liu Huai Qu held down Tang Rou'er and said, "I thought that even if I left the Alliance Head Residence, Rou'er would still be safe. I'm very sorry for what happened to her."

Tang Rou'er shrunk her neck under the gaze of Tang Ming's dark eyes: "Isn't there nothing wrong with me?"

"Has he been captured?" Tang Ming sighed and shifted his gaze away from Tang Rou Er. Looking at Liu HuaiQu, Liu Huaiqiu nodded, "Don't worry, I will make sure that those people will not die even if they wanted to."

If Mo Qu were here, he would definitely be able to see Liu Huai Qu's expression at this moment. It was exactly the same expression as when Tang Ming said he was going to skin a youth.

Tang Rou'er shuddered and dodged into Tang Ming's embrace.

"You scared Rou'er." Tang Ming patted Tang Rou's back as he looked at Liu Huai Qu in displeasure.

When Liu Huai Qu heard this, he calmed down a bit. He looked at Tang Rou'er apologetically: "I'm sorry."

"No, no. I just feel like …" Tang Rou'er held Tang Ming's hand: "It suddenly became so cold. It must have been the wind blowing into my sleeve." Tang Rou'er revealed a sweet smile.

"It's cold outside, you can't bear the cold. Go back inside the house first." Only then did Liu Huai Qu remember that Tang Rou's body wasn't very well. "I can listen to the story inside the house, but why is it outside?"

Tang Rou'er looked away guiltily. "The plum blossoms outside have bloomed. I want to take a look …"

This time, even Tang Ming's face darkened.

"Don't, don't be angry, I was wrong, okay?" Tang Rou'er took out one of her sleeves and shook it: "Worse comes to worse, how about I cook for you guys today?"

"When did you learn to cook?"

"I'm afraid you blew up the kitchen."

Tang Ming and Liu Huai Qu spoke at the same time. Tang Rou'er shrank her neck and revealed a fawning smile.

"Let's go back to the house first." Liu Huai Qu held his head and tried to calm down.
