Mr. Qi, Your Cover At Risk - Chapter 31
Chapter 31 Brother Seems More Fitting
Si Jingyun unconsciously curled his lips and let out a hearty laugh.
“Jinny, do you really think so? I’m not that old, perhaps brother seems more fitting for me.”
Lu Jinqi’s eyes moved and her tone was casual. “That’s right, calling you brother makes more sense.”
Hearing this, Si Jingyun paused for a moment and stared straight at her. His thin lips curled up and there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes. His magnetic deep voice was seductive and alluring as he spoke in her ear.
“I’ll make you call me other names in the future.”
This man did not know how to behave.
Qi Ye had given up long ago and played with his phone while they flirted. He helplessly placed his hand on his forehead. “I say, the two of you, we’re in a public area.”
Lu Jinqi looked at him indifferently with her cheeks flushed red as she retorted, “You talk too much.”
Qi Ye immediately looked at Si Jingyun, complaining, “She said I talk too much.”
Who would have thought that Si Jingyun’s eyes would twinkle and smile a little when he heard that. His slender fingers clenched into a fist and he pressed them against his lips as he lightly coughed. “She’s right.”
He spoke in a quick and casual manner without the slightest sense of guilt. Qi Ye was dumbstruck as he watched the two of them walk away. ‘So the clown has been me all along.’
He followed them with heavy steps. Along the way, quietly questioned his life choices. He only continued until they got into the car. After that, Qi Ye seemed to have forgotten about his hurt. He sat in the driver’s seat and began joking around again. “Master Jing, are you going back to the mansion, or are you going to stay at the hotel with her?”
Si Jingyun turned his head to look at the girl who had suddenly become obedient today and chuckled softly.
“Jinny, you’re staying at a hotel?”
Lu Jinqi took out her phone to reply to a message. When she heard his voice, she nodded.
“Qi Ye, go to Berling Manor,” Si Jingyun asked softly as he drummed his fingers on his lap.
The moment he finished speaking, he saw Lu Jinqi’s eyes looking at him with a hint of hesitation.
It was as though she was trying to see through his intentions.
Si Jingyun raised his hand and pinched her cheeks. Then, he slowly inched closer, his low and alluring voice rang in her ears as he spoke, “How could I ever let you stay in a hotel? I have no choice but to bring you home with
me.”
Lu Jinqi suddenly felt her heart burn. She moved her body and turned her head to look out the window.
Si Jingyun watched as her ears turned red and her laughter trailed off. “You’re cute when you’re shy.”
His response caused another shade of pink to appear on her cheeks.
Qi Ye had been secretly observing the two of them through the rearview mirror. As he watched the interaction, a plan came to his mind.
He suddenly slammed on the brakes. Due to inertia, the car rushed forward. Seeing that the girl was about to crash into the back of the front chair, Si Jingyun pulled her into his arms.
Lu Jinqi lay on the man’s chest. Hearing the strong heartbeat, her mind went silent.
Si Jingyun lowered his head and saw her stunned face. He could not help but raise his hand and gently stroke her long hair behind her ear.
“Jinny, are you planning to stay in my arms forever?”
Lu Jinqi snapped out of her thoughts and retreated from his arms. She hastily sat back in her seat, the corners of her lips curling up.
“Will you wait forever to pull me back when I leave?”
Qi Ye saw how perfect his assist was, and just as he was thinking about whether he should do it again, he met a certain someone’s cold gaze from the rearview mirror.
‘Forget it, I shouldn’t have helped you at all!’
After that, he safely drove the car all the way to the Berling Manor. Lu Jinqi looked at the retro european-style building in front of her in awe. With one hand in her pocket, she whistled with her red lips.
“You sure are rich and generous, brother.”
This was much bigger than the house that she had spent 100 million on. She was sure that she was the poorest among all of them as she stared at this house.
“Do you like this place?” Si Jingyun stood behind her. He gazed at her as he asked.
Lu Jinqi turned her head. The ends of her eyebrows were raised with indifference. “Why? Do you plan on changing the ownership of the house.”
Si Jingyun chuckled. “I’m just saying that if you like it, stop standing there and go in to take a look with me.”
‘Why am I even here…’ Qi Ye looked at Si Jingyun looking at Jinqi with a charming expression and sighed. Without caring, he immediately spoke up.
“Master Jing, I’ll be leaving first.”
Si Jingyun hummed softly and brought Lu Jinqi into the house.
After taking a shower, Lu Jinqi lay on the bed. Her mind suddenly recalled the embrace in the car. She had to admit that this man had a good figure.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Lu Jinqi raised her eyebrows. What was this man doing in the middle of the night? She went over and opened the door.
What greeted her eyes was a man in a white robe. He stood there lazily with a glass of milk in his hand.
“Dearest brother, are you trying to seduce me with a glass of milk?”
When she said this, she swept a meaningful glance at his faintly discernible chest as she emphasized the word brother.
Si Jingyun pinched her cheeks, as though he was punishing her.
Her red lips curled up as she looked at him calmly.
“Jinny, when will you ever clean that dirty mind of yours?”
Lu Jinqi’s lips twitched slightly. ‘You’re wearing a robe and knocking on my door at night, yet you’re saying that my thoughts aren’t clean? Do you even hear yourself?’
Si Jingyun seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He raised his eyelids and said casually, “I just finished showering and went downstairs to get milk for you.”
“Thank you,” Lu Jinqi said as she took the milk from the man’s hand and drank it in one gulp. Then, she mercilessly closed the door.
Si Jingyun glanced at the empty cup in his hand and chuckled. She had quite a temper.
Early in the morning, Qi Ye came over with food in his hands. When Lu Jinqi went downstairs, she saw him running in circles preparing everything.
“You’re awake. Come over for breakfast,” Qi ye raised his head and warmly greeted her.
Lu Jinqi raised her eyebrows slightly, a cute smile formed on her lips. “Qi Ye, you’re a master at doing everything, aren’t you?”
Qi Ye’s body froze. ‘Do you think I wanted to do this? An *sshole called me early in the morning just for this.’ Shaking his head, he decided to say something else. “So, seeing that I’m a master at everything, can you consider my feelings the next time you flaunt your love with Master Jing?”
Lu Jinqi picked up a bowl of porridge and had small bites. Hearing this, she replied without hesitation, “Look somewhere else then… Or you can always go blind to avoid it.” When Si Jingyun came downstairs, to his surprise, he was caught in an awkward scene. The girl was leisurely eating her porridge while Qi Ye angrily stared at her.
“What’s going on?”
Before Lu Jinqi could speak, Qi Ye exasperated his opinions, “Master Jing, she’s bullying me.”
Si Jingyun elegantly sat at the dining table and only shrugged as a response.
‘Just like that? That’s the only thing you’re going to say to me?’ Qi Ye fiercely grabbed a bun and took a bite out of frustration. He looked at the two in spite as he ruminated on his thoughts.
Suddenly, a ringtone broke the silence. Si Jingyun pressed the speakerphone. “What’s
up?”
“Master Jing, I heard that you’re back in the capital. They’re setting up a meeting later, do you want to come over?” A man on the other end of the phone said happily.
Hearing this, Si Jingyun tilted his head and looked at Qi Ye, who had his head lowered as he angrily ate the bread. He coldly rejected him.
“I don’t have the time.”
The man refused to give up. “You just got back. What do you mean you don’t have the time?”
“I have to take care of a child.”
Si Jingyun’s languid and lazy voice sounded. The other two people looked at him in shock. Even the man on the other end of the phone was shocked.
“What? Where did you get a child from?”
‘F*ck, where did Master Jing get a child from? Could it be an illegitimate child?’ the man on the other side of the phone frantically panicked.
“I picked that child up, I’m hanging up.” Si Jingyun hung up the phone and slowly sipped his tea.
Lu Jinqi raised her eyebrows curiously, her red lips curled up as she asked, “You picked me
up?”
