Chapter 4 Can You Be More Sensible?

After the typhoon, the air in Donghai City seemed exceptionally fresh, with a hint of water vapor. The sun shone on the earth, and occasionally one could even see the nine-color light of a rainbow in the sky. The sky was cloudless and the whole world was bright.

Lin Xiuran walked on the cement path of the college, bathing in the fresh air. Even though he was not completely recovered from his illness, he still felt very comfortable all over.

I just walked to the school gate and thought for a while that the East China Sea Spirit Pagoda is still too far from the East China Sea College. Although walking there saves money, it is not very realistic.

Donghai College is one of the landmark buildings in Donghai City, so naturally there is a soul guide bus stop at the door. It is cheap and affordable, and it is also Lin Xiuran’s best choice of transportation.

But he didn't wait for the bus, but instead waited for the girl who had taken care of him not long ago, Ouyang Zixin.

Seeing her, Lin Xiuran smiled subconsciously and said, "Sister Zi Xin, where are you going?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiuran felt something was wrong. Ouyang Zixin in front of him was obviously angry, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him was very wrong.

In stark contrast to the gentleness she usually showed him, Ouyang Zixin said in a reproachful tone: "Your brother usually treats you so well, why do you still do this?"

"I don't quite understand." He would naturally not accept groundless accusations, even if the other party was Ouyang Zixin.

Ouyang Zixin was obviously still very angry, but there were many people at the bus stop. She glanced at him coldly, then took his arm and said, "Follow me."

Lin Xiuran did not resist, but his eyes were slightly sad, as if he had realized what was going to happen next.

After a while, Lin Xiuran was pulled to a corner of the academy's playground by Ouyang Zixin. The typhoon and rainstorm had stopped, but the second day of school was not due. Although some students had returned to school one after another today, they were still few, and those on the playground were negligible. Here, Ouyang Zixin raised her voice slightly.

"As your brother, I think I have done my best. You have to know that during the riot period, it was very difficult to get a few tickets to the Spirit Ascension Platform, even for your Xu family. Not only did you not cherish this opportunity, you also acted on your own, causing you to be eliminated." Ouyang Zixuan's tone became even stronger when she said this.

"Can you please understand a little bit? What else do you want your brother to do?"

“Heh.” Lin Xiuran chuckled and murmured in a low voice: “That sentence again.”

He was so familiar with this sentence! It was the same sentence many times, and Xu's parents had said it to him countless times.

"So, is this what Sister Zi Xin wanted?"

Ouyang Zixin frowned slightly and said in a cold voice: "I heard from Senior Xu that in the end he took the blame for you and got scolded by Uncle Xu."

"That's it. You still run away from home? Who are you being honest with? Why didn't I realize that you are such a selfish person before?"

Lin Xiuran raised his head, took a deep breath, and explained: "If I say that things are not like that, will Sister Zi Xin believe it?"

"Are you saying that Senior Xu lied to me?" Ouyang Zixin was speechless and said, "Do you think it's possible?"

Lin Xiuran was not surprised by this answer. He slowly withdrew his expectant gaze, fell silent, and did not say another word.

Seeing this, Ouyang Zixin could only warn in a low voice: "Lin Xiuran, you should be more sensible in the future and stop making your brother and parents unhappy. In this way, you will become a good brother in the family and also a good brother to me. Otherwise..." Ouyang Zixin did not finish what she said, but the meaning was self-evident.

Lin Xiuran just smiled bitterly and shook his head. The so-called precious quota for the Riot Spiritual Ascension Platform, Xu's parents had never invested in him, so how could they be willing to give him such a quota? It was just a request from the family elders. It is true that the qualification for the Riot Spiritual Ascension Platform is very precious, but Xu Wenjun and the head of the East China Sea Spiritual Transmission Tower must pay a favor for this quota. Two quotas and three quotas are the same, there is not much difference, and it is not a huge amount. First, under the pressure of the elders, second, he can protect Xu Xiaoyan more if he enters, so naturally, he was reluctant to let him in.

Is he ignorant? Regardless of whether he is or not, in the eyes of Ouyang Zixin or Xu's parents, he is ignorant.

At this moment, not far away, there were two figures watching here.

"Brother, why are you doing this?" Xu Xiaoyan asked puzzledly.

Xu Xiaoyu shook her head and said coldly: "Even if my parents don't like him anymore, he is still a member of the Xu family, and the future family inheritance is still a threat. I am already very kind by doing this."

For him, it was not excessive to use some means to fight against the infighting in the family. Although his parents disliked Lin Xiuran very much, after all, the inheritance of the family, even if his father was the head of the family, could not be decided by a single word. It was not the first time that the elder who had the real say in the entire Xu family came forward to protect Lin Xiuran. This was also the reason why Xu Xiaoyu felt more threatened, and that was why he framed the other party many times.

Xu Xiaoyan still didn't understand. At her age, she naturally didn't understand these things. Her cute little face was frowned: "But, my second brother is already very pitiful..."

"enough!"

Xu Xiaoyu's sudden shout startled Xu Xiaoyan, which made her look fearful and she looked at her elder brother with some horror.

As if realizing that he had gone too far, Xu Xiaoyu quickly adjusted his mood. After all, Xu Xiaoyan was his sister, and because Xu Xiaoyan was gifted and born with full soul power,

In the test last year, it was discovered that her martial soul had a star wheel phenomenon that was extremely rare in the family's history. Therefore, Xu Xiaoyan was given special attention by the family.

Of course he couldn't make his sister unhappy, otherwise if Xu Xiaoyan went to complain to her parents, then he would be in trouble.

In the whole family, if there is a level of favor, he, Xu Xiaoyu, is one level higher than Lin Xiuran, although his treatment is very different from Lin Xiuran.

"Okay, Xiaoyan, it's your brother who is anxious. I'll treat you to some of your favorite beer later."

Xu Xiaoyu comforted her softly and reached out to touch Xu Xiaoyan's soft hair.

"But I still hope you will stand by my side. You should know that I have been taking care of you for so many years."

Xu Xiaoyan nodded in confusion, but even though she couldn't bear to see her second brother in such a miserable state, she did want to be closer to Xu Xiaoyu.

After all, from childhood to adulthood, Lin Xiuran was rarely at home. He was always accompanied by Xu Xiaoyu. Whenever they went out to eat delicious food, it was always Xu Xiaoyu who treated them.

Lin Xiuran almost missed her entire childhood, so how could she be too close to him?

This was indeed the case. After all, Lin Xiuran had almost no pocket money, let alone treating Xu Xiaoyan to delicious food. In order to save money to buy his first soul, he didn't even take care of himself. He even had to buy larger sizes of clothes frequently because he grew too fast, and sometimes he couldn't bear to do so.
