The girl listened on as she got even more shy. “Younger Sister Shui Ling, my way of liking him is different from your way of liking him. Your way of liking him is the love that you have for an older brother, and my “liking him” is…”

Yin Shuiling’s frown on her beautiful face got even more apparent. She did not understand as she said, “Is what?”

At this moment, the friend standing beside the girl said, “Little younger sister, you are young in age now, you don’t know anything about this. You are Yin Muchen’s younger sister. Yin Muchen needs you, but Yin Muchen also needs a girl other than you. Other girls can give something that you cannot.”

Yin Shuiling’s bright, beautiful smile had a moist glow. She pouted her small lips. Her childish voice choked up gently as she said, “What nonsense are you talking about? My older brother doesn’t need any of you! I can give anything to my older brother. He will be fine with me alone.”

The friend also got anxious. “Little Younger Sister, how come you are still not getting the picture? Other girls can kiss your older brother. Can you do that?”

With her words, the girl blocked her friend’s mouth shyly. The girl bit down on her lower lip. She looked like a coy water lily. “Aiya, don’t speak nonsense> Both me and Yin Muchen… I don’t even know if he likes me or not?”

As she spoke, the girl stuffed the scarf she held in her hands over in Yin Shuiling’s hands as she said, “Younger Sister Shuiling, I will need to trouble you then.”

The girl dragged her friend along as they left.

Two of them walked as they chatted with one another. “Qingqing, are you still afraid that Yin Muchen would not like you? You are the only daughter of the major jeweller in T City, and you are also the recognized beauty in our school campus. The boys that are after you can all line up to the Pearl Tower. Now you are ignoring your status and taking the initiative to chase after Yin Muchen. Wouldn’t he be extremely happy then?”

“You cannot say it like that. Those boys chasing after me cannot be compared to Yin Muchen at all. He is so handsome and so smart. He was the champion during the previous Olympiad Mathematics Competition held between four schools. I looked at the gazes that those girls had in their eyes… Furthermore, he is so cold towards me. The last time I took my textbook and asked him questions purposely, he did patiently answer my questions, but he did not even look me in the eyes at all… Still, the more he does this, the more I feel…I like him.”

Both girls went off in the distance, and Yin Shuiling was left alone as she lowered her head down to look at the ground. The tears in her eyes trickled down her face.

Woo woo. Someone was snatching her older brother away from her now.

She turned around and walked to the side of the rubbish bin and threw the scarf in her hands directly into the bin. She would not give it to her older brother. In the past, whenever those girls gifted her with fresh flowers and chocolates, she would throw them away secretly.

But she was so upset. This feeling that she was feeling right now was just as if her beloved Hello Kitty was going to be snatched away by someone else.

That older sister just now was so beautiful and so gentle; why did she have to like her older brother?

Would her older brother also like that older sister then?

She didn’t want that to happen!

Yin Shuiling took a breath through her nostrils. Her small white hand came to her face as she wiped her tears away messily. Kissing? What did she mean by kissing?

Did it mean putting lips together?

She remembered that Daddy and Mummy did kiss one another in the room before, but Yin Shuiling used both of her small hands to firmly hold onto her princess skirt. It was so embarrassing to do that.

As she was contemplating her troubles seriously, “Shuiling, ” Yin Muchen walked out of the school compound.

Yin Muchen wore a white tee shirt today. He wore a soft dark-blue wool shirt with white stripes running across it. The boy’s body was straight and skinny. His features flowed like flowing water, and together with the fashionable clothes that he wore today, the girls in school all looked in his direction.

Yin Shuiling ran forward quickly. She held his hand happily as she said, “Older Brother, you are dismissed now?”

Yin Muchen held her gentle and boneless-feeling small hand in his palm. He had a gentle expression on his face as he said, “Yeah, I am done with school now. Let’s go home.”

“Okay.” Yin Shuiling jumped and hopped behind her older brother. She unintentionally saw many girls blush red in the face as they looked at her older brother. She was very upset. “Older Brother, there are so many pretty older sisters looking at you.”

Yin Muchen opened the door of the sedan. He supported her small waist with two hands as he carried her into the car. He did not even turn his head back. He smiled calmly as he said, “Is that right? Let’s go home now.”

After returning to the Yin home, it was meal time. The four people gathered around the dining table as they ate dinner.

Yin De looked at Yin Muchen who was seated opposite him. He opened his mouth first. “Muchen, there is only one month left until the Gaokao examinations. Where do you want to go and study after this? What major do you plan to take up? I want to listen to your thoughts.”

Yin Muchen’s hand that he used to hold chopsticks with froze for a moment, but he went back to normal very quickly. He curled the corners of his lips slowly, and he smiled politely. “I don’t have much of an opinion. I will listen to both Aunt and Uncle’s opinions.”

Ever since he accepted the help of Yin family, he always remembered what Shi Xiaoqing once said, “Someone living under someone else’s roof, you must be able to lower your head down.”

He had no choice; reality worked just like this.

Wherever he would go to study, what he would major in, Yin De brought this topic up during dinner, but did he really want to listen to Yin Muchen’s thoughts?

Heh.

Shi Xiaoqing noted Yin Muchen’s reply. She was extremely pleased. She did not accept Yin Muchen from the bottom of her heart, but her husband Yin De was firm in his decision to take him in. Lately, Yin Muchen had given in. He was really an intelligent person.

The thing that impressed her the most was Yin Muchens intelligence. He won multiple prizes at the elite school, making an impression for himself. She’d even seen him on the news. He had a natural talent in the world of finance and numbers, and even when she hung out with the wives of other rich families to play mahjong with them, those rich ladies would have many tactics up their sleeves to ask her about him. Those rich ladies had many daughters and young ladies at home.

This was what she had never expected to happen. She didn’t think this poor chap who stayed in her house would turn into someone whom everyone fought for in the circle of rich people. It was really such a joke.

Her husband Yin De also persuaded her behind closed doors. The Yin family did not have any sons, but the Yin family needed someone to manage it. Their best choice was to take care of Yin Muchen. He was a tool, and it would be foolish not to make use of him.

Shi Xiaoqing quickly said, “Hehe, Muchen, since you stepped into the doors of our family, then we are all one family. Both your uncle and I would not treat you badly. What about this: we plan to send you to America for your studies, and you will go and major in business management. After you return to the country, you will enter the Yin Corporation.”

Yin Muchen took a mouthful of rice and chewed it. He did not say anything and wasn’t too surprised after all.

At this moment, Yin Shuiling ,who was beside her, said, “Mum, what is business management about? Older Brother doesn’t want to study that. Older Brother’s teacher said that he was going to send Older Brother to England to study Finance. Older Brother’s teacher even said that in five years’ time, Older Brother would be able to do well in the world of finance.”

Yin De and Shi Xiaoqing’s expressions became frozen in an instant. Shi Xiaoqing quickly replied, “Shuiling, you are just a young child. What do you even know? The finance world consists of playing with stocks, houses, and oil prices. If you are able to manage it well, you would turn into a magnate. If you fail, you would trade your status and life for it. Look at how many finance moguls there are worldwide. You want to harm your Older Brother.”

Yin De agreed with her as he said, “That’s right, Muchen. We are doing all of this for your own good. The Yin family has only Shuiling as our only daughter. When she grows older and marries someone, if you perform well in Yin Corporation, the entire Yin Corporation would be yours.”

Yin Shuiling wanted to continue speaking, but Yin Muchen opened his mouth first and said, “Okay, I will listen to Uncle and Aunty.”

After dinner, Yin Shuiling went to Yin Muchen’s room and said, “Older Brother, why do Dad and Mum have to force you to study business management and now allow you to study finance?”

Yin Muchen looked at this tiny thing in front of him. He slowly bent over before stretching his hand out to caress her small head. She did not understand anything right now. Her parents provided for all of his expenses right now. A businessman would not be willing to be part of money-losing deal. They want him to use the rest of his life to repay them.

With his abilities right now, going against them would be ruining their relationship.

It was not that he wanted to think of people as being evil. He suspected that if he were to disobey them, when he left for his studies in England, it would be full of danger.

“Shuiling, this is great. Older Brother can protect you forever, and when you…marry someone…”

Yin Muchen felt like his heart had been grabbed by a large hand. He could not catch his breath… Marrying someone else… When he heard these words from Shi Xiaoqing today, it was only then that he thought about it. There would be a day that she would also leave him, and belong…to another man.

“What is the meaning of marrying someone?” Yin Shuiling did not understand. She went forward to hug her older brother’s neck. “Older Brother, if you protect me forever, I would of course be very happy, but I also want Older Brother to be happy. Although older brother doesn’t say it, I know that older brother would very upset inside his heart if he doesn’t study finance.”

He had a soft and fragrant bundle in his embrace. A smile creeped up on the corners of Yin Muchen’s lips. He stretched his hands out to hug take in his embrace. He could not help but use his handsome face to nudge her hair. “It is all worth it after hearing this from you, Shuiling.”

Yin Shuiling’s bright, attractive eyes were looking around. She could not let this go on; she had to think of a plan to help her older brother.

“Older Brother…” She lifted her head up from his embrace, and she turned her gaze sideways to look at his eyes.

Yin Muchen was originally nudging her hair. She suddenly lifted her head and turned over. Their gazes crashed with one other like that, and he was 0.01 millimeters away from her.

He froze. He could not control his vision as he looked at her small lips. They were really tiny, just like a cherry. They were pink and moist, and they had a sweet fragrance to them.

Yin Shuiling did not expect to be so close to her older brother, and she also froze in an instant.

Older Brother was really very handsome. He had arched eyebrows, dark eyes that were beautiful as they resembled marbles, fair and clear skin… His tall nose resembled the peak of a mountain, Older Brother’s lips were thin and pink, and the arc was beautiful and sexy.

She felt her own small heart was beating all over the place. This feeling was so weird. It was just like a small deer hopping all over the place.

Yin Shuiling wanted to kiss him at this moment. The things that other girls could give him, she could give him as well.

As she kissed him, she wanted to tell her older brother: Older Brother, you can only be mine. Don’t go and like someone else. It will all be alright as long you like me alone.

As Yin Shuiling wanted to take action, Yin Muchen stood back up.

The boy’s voice was a little hoarse, “Shuiling, it is late now. Go back to your own room.”

Yin Shuiling, who did not get to kiss him, was a little frustrated, but she thought of a problem. She wanted to ask him this question. “Older Brother, what is the meaning of going overseas to study? Daddy and Mummy said that you are going to university. Where is your university located? England, America? You have to tell me the address first. After I am dismissed from school, I will wait for older brother to go home together with me.”

Yin Muchen realized suddenly, this small girl did not know he was going to leave this place. She did not know how far America was. As for how long he was going to be away — maybe 3 years, 5 years, 7 years. She always thought that she could still go home together with him.

Yin Muchen was very upset inside his heart. That was right; he had to part with her after all.

“Shuiling, Older Brother doesn’t know where my university would be. After one month, after Older Brother knows the address, I will tell you then.”

He did not want her to be upset. She would definitely stick to him and cry when she found out. He would tell her after he went to the airport.

His small girl.
