Chapter 135: I don't want to be your brother anymore

Twilight deepened, the lights were dim, and a black off-road vehicle sped along the highway.

Qin Hao Bei sat in the driver's seat, driving without saying a word, while Shi Yi held Xiao Shiliu in the back seat.

Soon, Xiao Shiliu fell asleep. Through the rearview mirror, Shi Yi saw Qin Hao Bei's sharp-angled side profile, his expression cold and stern.

"Brother, that, about tonight's matter..."

Shi Yi just wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Qin Hao Bei's cold voice the next second: "Xiao Shiliu is asleep, don't wake him up."

Shi Yi:.........

It was over; her brother was truly angry.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of the Qin family villa. Qin Hao Bei silently picked up the sleeping Xiao Shiliu, walked up to the second floor of the villa, and sent the child into Father and Mother Qin's bedroom.

Xiao Shiliu slept with his grandparents every night.

"Brother, did you... have dinner? Let me make you some noodles..."

Seeing Qin Hao Bei walk down from upstairs, Shi Yi looked at him cautiously and spoke.

Qin Hao Bei said expressionlessly: "I've eaten."

Shi Yi checked her watch; it was already past 11:00 PM. She knew it was very late, but she still owed her brother an explanation. If she didn't say it today, she wouldn't be able to sleep from guilt.

"Alright, by the way, Brother, about tonight's matter, I still want to explain it to you..."

Shi Yi swallowed and said nervously.

However, Qin Hao Bei didn't even look at Shi Yi.

"We'll talk about it tomorrow; I'm tired."

After saying that, he turned and walked into his bedroom.

Shi Yi:...

Watching Qin Hao Bei's departing back, Shi Yi had no choice but to speak up weakly:

"Okay, then... I'll go take a shower first. Brother, rest early, goodnight..."

Half an hour later.

Shi Yi had finished her shower and hadn't had time to dry her hair. As she came out of the bathroom holding a bath towel, a strong smell of alcohol suddenly rushed into her nose.

Her heart tightened, she frowned, and walked into the living room to look.

Sure enough, a row of wine bottles was messily placed on the table, all empty. Qin Hao Bei was lying on the sofa with his body tilted, his eyes blurred, a faint flush on his cheeks, his whole body smelling of alcohol, and he was still holding half a bottle of unfinished red wine.

Shi Yi:...

Didn't he say he was going to sleep? Why was he drinking so much alone here?!

Shi Yi ran over quickly and snatched the wine bottle from Qin Hao Bei's hand, "Stop drinking."

Qin Hao Bei didn't know how much he had drunk sitting alone on the sofa...

He really wanted to get drunk so that he could forget what happened tonight, forget the scene in the center of the stage where Xing'er and that bastard Chu Yehan were hugging each other!

Unfortunately, his alcohol tolerance was too high, and he wasn't drunk after drinking so much. At this moment, he was instead terrifyingly sober.

He sneered, squinting his blurred eyes covered in a faint mist of water, grabbed Xing'er's arm, and curled his lips, pretending to be drunk:

"Heh, Xing'er, have a drink with me?"

"Brother, you're drunk."

Shi Yi pulled her hand away coldly; she had never seen Qin Hao Bei in such a drunken state.

"Heh, stingy. If you won't drink with me... I'll drink by myself... I'm not drunk yet... Give me... that wine bottle!"

Qin Hao Bei said with blurred eyes, reaching out to grab the wine bottle in Shi Yi's hand.

"Stop drinking!"

Shi Yi decisively capped the red wine bottle, put it back in the cabinet, and bent down to clean up all the empty wine bottles on the table and floor. She sighed, covered her chest with her hand, then returned to Qin Hao Bei's side and said softly and gently:

"Brother, it's very late, let me take you back to your room to sleep."

Qin Hao Bei raised his eyes, and the next second, he met Shi Yi's transparent amber eyes full of worry.

At this moment, the collar of her silk pajamas hung low, revealing a fair and charming chest, the ends of her jet-black hair sticking to her temples while wet, making her skin look even more like frost and snow. Qin Hao Bei wasn't drunk, but at this moment, the faint scent of body wash emanating from Shi Yi suddenly made him feel a bit intoxicated.

Damn it...

Does this woman never know how to restrain her charm?!

Seeing that Qin Hao Bei's eyes were still blurred and he didn't speak, Shi Yi gathered her courage, wrapped her arm around his, and supported his waist from behind.

"Brother, I'll help you up, let's go back to the room and sleep."

As she said this, she helped Qin Hao Bei up from the sofa.

Although Qin Hao Bei wasn't completely drunk, he was a 1.88-meter-tall man, and most of his body weight was pressed onto Shi Yi, so Shi Yi almost died from the pressure!

"Brother! Don't sleep here! Hold on!"

Fortunately, his bedroom wasn't far, just next to the living room on the first floor.

Shi Yi panted, half-hugging and half-dragging, supporting Qin Hao Bei's body step by step as they moved forward.

Qin Hao Bei's head hung low on her shoulder. His warm breath, smelling of alcohol, puffed onto the back of her neck, making her feel itchy inside.

Ten minutes later, Shi Yi spent a lot of effort and finally helped Qin Hao Bei into his bedroom.

At this moment, although she was exhausted, in order to prevent him from falling face-first, she stood in front of the bed, held his waist, and turned him around so his back was facing the bed. Then she let out a breath and suddenly let go...

However, the moment she let go, Shi Yi herself suddenly lost her balance and fell heavily onto the bed!

With a "thump"—

Shi Yi fell face-first and landed on a soft... meat cushion! Her chest was now pressed against Qin Hao Bei's warm, solid chest, and she could even feel the rise and fall of his chest. Her lower abdomen was pressed against his solid eight-pack abs...

Shi Yi:.........

"I'm sorry! I... I didn't mean to!"

Shi Yi sat up from the bed with a start.

The next second, just as she was about to stand up, she met Qin Hao Bei's ink-black eyes.

"Didn't you have something to explain to me?"

Qin Hao Bei's voice was low and hoarse, carrying a trace of irresistible anger.

"It... it's like this..."

Shi Yi said in a panic:

"The program performed at the gala today was... was to commemorate Xiao Manjie and Lao Jiu. Today is the third anniversary of their passing... Yu Tongjie begged me to go... I... I didn't expect it to take so long... making you wait so long, and I didn't expect you all to go to the gala, and even less did I expect to meet those two people..."

"Brother, I didn't mean to lie to you. What I mean is... I didn't lie to you, I just found an excuse... Brother, I... I apologize to you... I'm sorry, Brother..."

Because she was too nervous, Shi Yi spoke incoherently, her sentences disjointed.

Just then, her shoulder was suddenly pressed hard against the pillow behind her by a large hand.

"Don't call me Brother."

"I don't want to be your brother anymore." ===== CHAPTER 136 =====
