Chapter 168: Brothers Turning Against Each Other

~7 min read 1,264 words

"What's the use of knowing Sister Ling? Who knows if Sister Ling will make a move when the time comes? And you have to know that Sister Ling only cares about him, not us. In the end, won't we be the ones who are unlucky? Are we brothers just here to be his cannon fodder?" Yellow Tiger said indignantly.

"Don't overthink it, maybe it's not like that!" Wu Di sighed, but when he said this, he clearly lacked confidence and wasn't particularly sure.

The next day at school, in the morning, I discovered that Third Brother had actually come to the classroom with Zhang Yinuo. Is there something fishy between these two? Third Brother hadn't returned yesterday; did they spend the night together? Although I was prepared to draw a line with Zhang Yinuo, seeing her with someone else suddenly really made me feel uncomfortable, and the other person was my best brother. This made it very hard for me to accept.

Seeing Third Brother sit next to me, I originally wanted to ask something, but in the end, I didn't speak. What would be the point of asking now? If it had already happened, then asking would clearly be awkward. If it hadn't happened, and I went to hold him accountable, in what capacity would I be doing so?

Third Brother saw me and said, "Fourth, come out with me for a moment!"

Seeing Third Brother suddenly looking for me, and wanting to talk to me alone, I felt a bit nervous. I didn't know what Third Brother wanted to say to me. If he laid his cards on the table, how should I answer? With a calm smile, or with anger and rage? I didn't know.

However, I still followed Third Brother out. We walked to a deserted place outside the classroom. Third Brother looked at me with an unusual expression; it was clearly filled with anger. He said to me, "Fourth, did you make some decision without authorization?"

I didn't know what Third Brother was referring to—was it about Zhang Yinuo or something else? I felt guilty and didn't know how to answer for a moment, so I could only say, "Ah, what decision? I don't quite understand?"

"Don't play dumb with me. Are you going to take Yellow Tiger and the others to deal with the Li family tonight?" Third Brother asked in a questioning tone.

I felt extremely uncomfortable with his tone because he had never spoken to me like this before. However, I still answered him: "How did you know about this?"

I guessed it was possible that Yellow Tiger had told Third Brother, but after all, this was my own business. I didn't want too many people to get involved, so I didn't intend to bring Third Brother, Old Five, and Zhang Yinuo along.

"Don't worry about how I know. Are you really going?" Third Brother glared at me aggressively.

I knew Third Brother had most likely already received the news from Yellow Tiger. It was impossible to hide it, so I simply nodded.

Seeing me nod, Third Brother grabbed my collar and said angrily, "Are you crazy? Can you discuss it with us before making any decisions? Isn't going to find the Li family now just looking for death? What do you think you have? What makes you think you can deal with the current Li family?"

"I've thought about the matter carefully; the winning rate is still quite high. Don't worry about this matter; I can handle it myself!" I said impatiently.

"You say you can handle it? How many times before have you said you could handle it? And then what? Yinuo was even hospitalized because of you. Is this what you call being able to handle it? You have no ability, yet you still want to drag others into your nonsense. No matter what, you can't go today. We still have to discuss it!" Third Brother pushed me and shouted angrily.

The anger in my heart was also ignited. I shouted angrily at Third Brother: "I have no ability, I'm useless, and you're useful? What right do you have to control me? Don't think I don't know about the things you've done. I just didn't want to tear my face off with you. You should take care of yourself!"

"What things of mine? What have I done?" Third Brother was clearly a bit guilty.

"What are you two doing? What are you arguing about? In broad daylight, what can't be discussed when you go back? Do you have to argue at school?" I don't know when, but Old Five, Zhang Wu, had arrived. Seeing me and Third Brother arguing, he came over and blocked us.

"It's not that I want to argue; it's this guy who wants to argue with me!" I glared angrily at Xu Hongzhi.

"Get lost, damn you. Do you really think you're something? Everyone has to revolve around you. If it weren't for me and Yinuo, do you know how many times you would have died? You are ungrateful. If this continues, you will be finished sooner or later!" Xu Hongzhi cursed at me directly.

"Fuck your mother, did I ask you to save me? Haven't I saved you before? Whether I'm finished or not, what does it have to do with you? Get lost, you idiot!" At this moment, I also lost my reason a bit and shouted angrily.

"Stop arguing, you're both brothers. What are you doing? Have you forgotten all the years we've been through life and death? You're both here cursing in the street. If you continue like this, the brotherhood will be over!" Zhang Wu was also anxious at this moment and said to us excitedly.

"If it's over, then it's over. I don't have such a stupid brother!" Xu Hongzhi shouted angrily.

Hearing Xu Hongzhi's words, I suddenly felt a pain in my heart. My relationship with Xu Hongzhi used to be better than that of real brothers; I didn't expect it to end up like this today.

I stared fixedly at Xu Hongzhi, trying my best to calm my mood, and then forced a smile and said, "Alright, if it's over, then it's over. I don't want to have a stupid brother like you either. Since that's the case, let's go our separate ways today!"

"Fourth Brother, are you crazy? Do you know what you're saying? We are brothers!" Zhang Wu cried and said to me.

I endured my grief and didn't speak, while Xu Hongzhi snorted coldly at me: "I, Xu Hongzhi, am breaking off all relations with Yang Yun here today. From now on, we are at opposite ends of the world, going our separate ways!"

Zhang Wu quickly ran to Xu Hongzhi, crying and grabbing him: "Third Brother, are you crazy? That's Fourth Brother! What are you saying? Are you both joking with me today? Yes, you must be joking! Joking!"

I looked at Zhang Wu and wanted to step forward to comfort him, but I couldn't take a step. I didn't know how to live the days ahead. My mood was very chaotic. I didn't want Zhang Wu to participate in the following matters either; it would be better to be alone.

"Old Five, what are you still doing here? Why don't you come back with me!" Xu Hongzhi shouted at the crying Zhang Wu beside him.

"What about Fourth Brother? What about Fourth Brother?"

"That's not your Fourth Brother anymore. You don't have a Fourth Brother. Why don't you understand?" Xu Hongzhi said to Zhang Wu angrily.
