Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

"Yeah, as expected of your brother, you react so quickly. So, these things still need to be done step by step. I think you're already a bit overwhelmed by Zixiao alone. What if they launch a relentless attack? You'll be finished."

"Don't be so blunt! There are children here!"

Yu Zhe angrily pointed to Luo Xiaomeng, who was sitting next to him, kneeling on the chair, and looking out the window.

Xiao Meng trembled with anger and pounced on Yu Zhe's arm, biting it!

"Whose child are you talking about?!"

"Ah!! Why can you bite?! No, no, no! It hurts! I'm talking about Yu Che! Yu Che is a child!"

"Um?!"

I wonder if all lolis behave this way.

Hearing that he was being used as a shield, Yu Che bit Yu Zhe's other arm again!

"You!! Give in!!"

"Hmm?" "Huh?"

Perhaps, this is a rather happy scene.

On either side of Yu Zhe, the petite Xiao Meng and Yu Che squatted down, spitting out their lips and even managing to dangle a glistening drop of drool from Yu Zhe's sleeve... Hey! Can you guys watch yourselves?!

No... actually, it's only Yu Zhe who makes sarcastic remarks.

There's no one else here, but if others saw the two little girls clinging to Yu Zhe and biting him, they'd be incredibly envious.

But Yu Zhe doesn't feel happy; only he knows that.

Speechless, he used both hands to pull open the upper part of his sleeve that had been bitten, revealing a small tooth mark on each side!

Neat and tidy, this isn't symmetrical beauty, this is pain!

"Are you two born in the Year of the Dog...?"

Xiao Meng is still a bit lacking in skill.

She bit him simply because she felt indignant at being called a child by Yu Zhe, a sore spot.

But Yu Che is not~

Just as Yu Zhe rolled up her sleeve, she leaned over again and brought her mouth close to his.

Yu Zhe was startled and tried to dodge! What? You're going to bite me again?!

Little did they know that Yu Che wasn't biting at all; instead, he stuck out his tongue and licked the tooth mark he had just made.

"?!hiss..."

Having experienced what happened last night and just now been teased by Zixiao, Yu Zhe felt like he was being taken advantage of.

In just that one moment, Yu Zhe dramatically changed his posture, from a lazy sitting position to a position where he clasped his legs together, pressed his arms over them, and hugged himself tightly.

It was as if he was hiding some kind of reaction.

This allowed Xiaomeng, Yuche, and Zixiao, who were observing up close, to all reap the benefits!

They had no idea that Yu Zhe could be so shy!

Yu Che licked his tongue, seemingly not quite satisfied, and appeared to be considering taking things further and getting physical.

Yu Zhe immediately freed one hand and placed it in front of her.

"Stop... I'm afraid I'll lose control of my emotions if you do it again. Stop messing around... For my sake and for your own, you just said it yourself... You can't use your skills here."

In this soft voice, Yu Zhe's tone was no different from usual.

But to the three of them, it sounded incredibly tingling and numbing.

Yu Zhe was clearly not fully recovered from last night; his current tone...

At first glance, it sounds no different from usual, but upon closer inspection, it carries a hint of begging for mercy.

Yu Che had never seen such a weak older brother before!

She now felt like she wanted to devour him whole!

But...

Yu Che is sensible.

No matter what, she would always prioritize Yu Zhe's interests. If she really lost control here, it wouldn't just be one person's problem... But please, she wouldn't be able to accept that herself. She could take it slow later.

"Alright, alright, Su Zixiao, Luo Xiaomeng, go your separate ways. Stop getting your hopes up here, this isn't the time!"

Yu Che waved her small hand, speaking as if giving an order.

Zixiao patted Yuzhe's back gently while responding speechlessly, "You're the only one who's all fired up... Look at your brother, can't you tone it down a bit?"

“Indeed…” Xiao Meng also played with Yu Zhe’s ponytail, affirming Zi Xiao’s words, “I always feel that Miss Yu Che is the biggest threat. Well, fortunately, we are in the car, so nothing is likely to happen.”

"??"

So you didn't have that in mind?

Yu Che was shocked. She had thought that everyone else was thinking the same thing, but she was the only one who was holding back, acting as a mediator.

Who knew that she was the only one who actually wanted to do *that*?!

What else...?

Yu Zhe lowered his head and slightly raised his gaze, looking at Yu Che who had a surprised expression.

This is in a car... Who's as reckless as you?

This also shows that Yu Che is really worried about what Zi Xiao did yesterday.

Looking at the teeth marks on his shoulder, Yu Zhe kept thinking about the passionate encounter last night.

Actually, I didn't expect... Zixiao usually doesn't show off her abilities and looks frail, but she actually held her own against Yuzhe when they sparred, which shows that she is exceptionally talented.

Although neither of them surrendered in the end, making it a draw, Yu Zhe knew that if the fight continued, he would inevitably lose!

Is Yu Che... possibly weaker?

At this moment, Xie Yuzhe held such expectations.

If we don't have this expectation, what else can he do?

26. It's snowing.

"Lu Ling, how much longer until we arrive at the station?"

"Ah, young master, please wait a moment! Sister, please calculate quickly, um... young master, it will probably take another hour and a half for us to reach the Nordic city you set as our destination."

"That's pretty fast."

"Yes! The main reason is that this railway is particularly convenient. We don't need to wait or anything, thanks to the advance arrangements made by Young Master and Miss Yu Che."

"That's a minor issue."

Yu Zhe was seeing the train driving process for the first time. Lu Ling and Lu Yao didn't have much to do in that little locomotive. They would occasionally check various instruments and adjust the speed according to the terrain so that everyone could better enjoy the scenery.

Little Lychee thought trains had steering wheels too! Turns out they don't!

Traveling really broadens your horizons.

The reason there's no need to wait is because this railway is usually not busy; it's a dedicated travel line. As long as you're willing to spend the money... well, passports for all the countries you'll be passing through are already prepared, so it's not a problem at all. Moreover, you can go directly to your destination city in Northern Europe, which is incredibly convenient.

(P.S.: The infrastructure and rules of the fictional world and the real world are definitely not exactly the same, so don't worry about that~)

Having confirmed the progress, Yu Zhe shifted his gaze to Yu Che, who was leaning on his shoulder.

"I took a nap and forgot to ask... has the company made any arrangements?"

"Don't worry, brother! Dad is working overtime! He says he's perfectly willing!"

Did you threaten him...?

"Haha... No way! I've always been so well-behaved, sensible, filial, and considerate. How could I possibly threaten you! Brother, you're such a joker!"

"..."

Dad, you've really suffered.

With Yu Zhe and Yu Che traveling together, the Su Group can be said to have temporarily lost its backbone.

While remote work is possible, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of travel?

If you're going to have fun, you have to have fun freely and without restraint.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility of managing the Su Group during this period must be handed back to the current head of the family, Su Zhenfeng.

If the family's profits decrease, they will be collectively blamed for splitting up the family, so the father is generally quite unwilling to take on the main work.

But this time, Su Zhenfeng didn't even make a complaint call to Yu Zhe, which can only mean that Yu Che definitely didn't speak to him kindly.

Without needing to be told, Yu Zhe could guess that Yu Che must have used a similar tone at the time.

"Dad, listen up. You have to take on the responsibility of leading the Su family during this period. Remember, you are not allowed to call my brother to bother him, you are not allowed to complain about anything, and you are not allowed to let the Su Group's performance decline. Otherwise, hehe, you'll see what happens to my mother."

"I didn't say anything that bad!! And! Brother, please don't imitate my voice, it's so embarrassing!"

"Huh? Am I wrong?"

"Almost...almost, it seems pretty close?"

"That's still true. Sigh, Dad is getting on in years, so don't put too much pressure on him."

"What?! Now is the time for him and Mom to take the lead! Bro, we've been working so hard for so long, how can you side with them?"

"good..."

"Hehe..."

To deal with Yu Che, who is prone to emotional fluctuations, Yu Zhe only needs to pat her head to make her squint her eyes and obediently enjoy it.

On the other side, Zixiao, like Yuzhe's left protector, was also trying to persuade Yuche.

"Speaking of which... when you actually get to Mom, Yu Che, don't be too impulsive... otherwise, your brother will be in a difficult position too."

"

Hmph~ Anyway, I've already figured out how to punish her. She deserves it no matter what. Hmm... I'll pat her head a few more times~ cough, I definitely won't let her off easily!

The way you're simultaneously enjoying being patted on the head, acting cute, and being fierce... doesn't seem very convincing.
