“What’s there to be embarrassed about? He’s your brother. Didn’t you say that you wanted to marry him when you were young?” Xiao Qi smiled as she looked at Zhang Fan. “Little Fan, would it be very troublesome for you?”

Zhang Fan’s eyes lit up when he saw how shy Zhang Xiaoyuan was. This girl was quite likable.

“It’s not troublesome, quite simple actually. Just persist with acupuncture every day, and I reckon there won’t be any issues after the college entrance examination.” Zhang Fan casually remarked, considering that he currently has no Spirit Points left. If he wants to treat Zhang Xiaoyuan, he’ll have to wait until Ye Xuan and Ye Yanran’s Spirit Points are harvested.

Well, treating Ye Yanran and his father also requires acupuncture, so I suppose treating Zhang Xiaoyuan will involve similar means.

“Why are you just standing there? Go and treat your sister,” Zhang Yuanlin also stood up.

After all, Zhang Xiaoyuan is not their biological sister, and she has no blood relation to Zhang Fan at all. Zhang Yuanlin has always treated Zhang Xiaoyuan as his own son. From childhood to adulthood, he hoped that these two children could grow up and be together. If Zhang Xiaoyuan were to be married off to someone else, he would still feel heartbroken.

Xiao Qi also urged them, “Go ahead.”

“Oh, Dad, please brew this medicine. You’ll have to drink it later,” Zhang Fan said, pulling Zhang Xiaoyuan into the room.

Zhang Dongyang felt a bit confused, looking at the backs of the two of them. He slowly said, “Second Brother, now that Fan and the others have grown up, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”

Zhang Yuanlin smiled, “What’s the matter? You’re not interested in our Xiaoyuan? I’ve been raising this girl for so many years, and I’m not at ease handing her over to someone else. Little brother, as long as they have no blood relation, if they like each other, we can rest assured.”

Zhang Dongyang nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood. So, this is what they were thinking. But when he thought about Zhang Xiaoyuan’s adorable appearance, he also nodded.

“Brother, how should we proceed?” Zhang Xiaoyuan lowered her head, her voice very weak.

Zhang Fan said, “Naturally, it will be acupuncture.”

“Ah, does that mean I have to undress?” Zhang Xiaoyuan widened her eyes, and her chubby face turned red in an instant.

“Of course, otherwise, how can I treat you?” Zhang Fan replied.

Zhang Xiaoyuan sat on the bed, fidgeting. The thought of undressing in front of Zhang Fan made her face even redder.

Zhang Fan took out a silver needle and looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan’s adorable face, then smiled, “It’ll be over quickly.”

Zhang Xiaoyuan turned around and clumsily took off her clothes, then quickly jumped onto the bed, like a rabbit, and burrowed into the covers.

Zhang Fan smiled and joked, “Xiaoyuan, do you still want me to join you under the covers for acupuncture? What if I accidentally poke the wrong place, and you end up in pain?”

Zhang Xiaoyuan poked her head out, feeling very embarrassed as she pulled the blanket down. She closed her eyes and couldn’t meet Zhang Fan’s gaze, saying, “Brother, please hurry.”

Zhang Fan nodded and sat on the edge of the bed, taking out a silver needle. For a moment, he did not know how to proceed without the guidance of a System.

Well, without the System’s instructions, how should he proceed?

What if he made a mistake?

However, if he did not do it, Second Uncle and the others would definitely suspect something. F*ck, why did he have to pretend to be better off when there was nothing wrong?

Zhang Xiaoyuan opened her eyes slightly, looking at Zhang Fan, who seemed absent-minded. Her face grew even redder as she said, “Brother, what are you looking at? Please get started quickly.”

“Alright, alright.” Zhang Fan quickly snapped back to reality, leaned over, and cautiously made the needle insertion.

It was very shallow; the needle barely pierced the skin before Zhang Fan withdrew it.

This should definitely be fine, Zhang Fan thought to himself.

“Ouch!”

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoyuan screamed in pain.

Outside the room, Zhang Dongyang shuddered upon hearing the sound and felt uneasy as he asked, “Second Sister-in-law, they wouldn’t be doing anything inappropriate, right…?”

Zhang Dongyang could not be sure if Zhang Fan, that little rascal, had any wicked thoughts. After all, that sound… it was a bit…

“Ah!”

The scream echoed from inside the room once again.

Xiao Qi also suspected that Zhang Fan and Zhang Xiaoyuan were up to something in the room. She stood up and said, “Let me go in and check.”

Creak!

The sound of the door opening made Zhang Fan’s hand tremble, and it was clear that the silver needle had gone deeper.

“Ah!” Zhang Xiaoyuan cried out miserably, the pain becoming unbearable.

“Second Aunt, why did you come in?” Zhang Fan was almost frightened by Xiao Qi, breaking out in a cold sweat as he quickly turned around. He noticed a trace of blood flowing from Zhang Xiaoyuan’s body.

Zhang Fan hurriedly reached out and wiped away the bloodstain.

“I made a wrong insertion, and it’s bleeding,” Zhang Fan awkwardly wiped his forehead.

“Cough, you guys can continue,” Xiao Qi said when she saw that Zhang Fan and Zhang Xiaoyuan had not done anything else, and quickly retreated.

“Ah.” Zhang Xiaoyuan turned her head and looked at Xiao Qi’s figure, immediately hugging the blanket and burying her head in it.

So embarrassed, her mother saw it, ah, what should she do, what should she do!

“Cough, it’s done.” Zhang Fan quickly put away the silver needle, not daring to linger in the room any longer, and hastily ran out.

Embarrassing, it was too embarrassing. Second Aunt suddenly walked in, what the f*ck was going on?

Zhang Fan inwardly lamented, feeling like he had been caught doing something guilty.

“Is it done?” Zhang Yuanlin asked.

“It’s done.” No matter how thick-skinned Zhang Fan was, he could not help blushing at this moment.

“Dad, you were supposed to boilthe medicine, why are you still here?” Zhang Fan looked at Zhang Dongyang’s eyes, filled with an extremely complicated expression, feeling even more guilty.

They weren’t waiting for him outside, were they?

Umm…

Zhang Fan took the medicine and ran straight to the kitchen.

Ah, what a mess.

Xiao Qi followed closely behind, then walked into the kitchen and looked at Zhang Fan’s embarrassed expression. She slowly said, “Little Fan, actually, Xiaoyuan is an adopted child, not your biological cousin. So, don’t burden yourself with any psychological pressure.”

Zhang Fan was stunned, what? Not a biological cousin?

Right, he remembered that he had heard Second Uncle telling Dad earlier that they were not capable of having children!

“Your Second Uncle and I hope that in the future, you’ll call us Mom and Dad. You didn’t have a mother since you were young, and we’ve always treated you as our own son. If you like Xiaoyuan, go after her. If you two are together, your Second Uncle and I will be relieved,” Xiao Qi spoke with great sincerity.

“What? Pursue her if I like her? Be together and be at ease?” Zhang Fan nearly dropped the medicine jar from his hands.

What did Second Aunt mean? Did she want him to be with Xiaoyuan?

“Don’t feel burdened. Xiaoyuan has known for a long time that she’s not our biological child. So, if you really like her, your Second Uncle and I will talk to Xiaoyuan about it,” Xiao Qi continued.

“From now on, Xiaoyuan will be entrusted to your care. Your Second Uncle and I will be returning to the Capital tomorrow.”

Xiao Qi said softly, and Zhang Fan’s hand trembled, causing the medicine jar to slip out.
