    After a deep sleep, Leng Yi had already been gone for a long time when Xiao Jue drowsily opened his eyes and slowly sat up, leaning against the headboard. There was only him alone in the spacious bedroom, and the silence was so profound that one could hear a pin drop.

    These past few days, they had been fussing around with Leng Yi for so long that he was feeling a bit unwell. After a short while, he laid back down and fell asleep again. He had originally thought that as long as he had a good sleep, everything would be fine. But now it seemed that he had somewhat overestimated his physical endurance.

    Leng Ye was not there, and Xiao Jue did not want to stay there any longer either. After waking up in the evening, he immediately returned to his own home.

    However, to his surprise, when he returned this time, Xiao Qing was actually at home.

    When she saw him, Xiao Jue's eyes were full of surprise, while Xiao Qing casually glanced at him as if nothing had happened, and asked casually, "Where did you go?"

    "I went out for a bit." Xiao Jue blurted out, then turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

    Xiao Qing noticed that his walking posture seemed a bit awkward, and she thought he might have gone out to fight with someone again, so she stopped him and couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?"

    "Don't meddle in matters that shouldn't concern you!"

    However, faced with his rare "concern", Xiao Jue didn't really appreciate it. His tone of speech was still somewhat indifferent.

    Xiao Qing originally had good intentions to ask, but as soon as she heard the tone of his speech, anger surged up within her. She directly threw the remote in her hand onto the sofa and stared at him angrily, saying, "Xiao Jue, I fucking care about you. Don't you know how to appreciate it?!"

    "You're more interested in bothering me than actually caring about me with your martial arts skills!" Xiaojue stopped in his tracks and turned to meet his gaze, speaking each word with precision.

    Xiao Qing was abruptly frightened by his gaze. Feeling guilty, she averted her eyes, but in her heart, she couldn't help but feel indignant. She murmured softly, "Tsk, even as an Omega, you can be so aggressive. No wonder nobody dares to want you!"

    The voice was quiet, but every word was heard clearly by Xiao Jue. He was stunned for a moment, seemingly unable to believe that these words were actually spoken by his own younger brother!

    No matter what others say about him, he can be indifferent and not take it to heart. However, when it comes to Xiao Qing, it's different. Moreover, he doesn't have the qualification to talk about him!

    "Say it again!" Xiao Jue stormed over, his eyes red and he grabbed his collar, growling angrily.

    "...What...what did you say?" Xiao Qing realized that she had said something wrong and, feeling guilty, dared not look at him. She bowed her head, trying hard to conceal the fear in her heart.

    In fact, he is very afraid of Xiao Jue, but sometimes, when the rebelliousness kicks in, he can't help but argue with him. But when he really angers him, he becomes terrified.

    Xiao Jue had never laid a hand on him, but his subconscious fear towards his older brother had never diminished. His feelings towards Xiao Jue were also quite complex: fear, dislike, admiration, care...

    Sometimes, even he himself couldn't understand.

    "Xiao Qing, I warn you, if I ever hear you say such words again, be careful or I'll break your leg!" Xiao Jue was furious, leaving behind these words before storming back into the room, leaving Xiao Qing standing alone in a daze at the same spot.

    After a while, Xiao Qing also felt regrets for realizing that he had said something too harsh. He wanted to apologize, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. In the end, he could only go to the kitchen and prepare some food, intending to use the excuse of delivering a meal to slightly alleviate the conflict that had just occurred.

    The door to Xiao Jue's bedroom is rarely locked. Xiao Qing knocked on the door symbolically twice at the entrance, but before receiving a response, she opened the door and went in on her own.

    "What are you here for again?" Xiao Jue asked, leaning against the headboard with a terrifyingly dark expression on his face.

    Xiao Qing swallowed nervously, clutching her head uneasily, and said, "I'm afraid you haven't eaten yet. Let me prepare something for you to eat..."

    Xiao Jue glanced sideways, his expression remaining unchanged. He spoke in a deep voice, "Put the thing down, and you can leave!"

    Xiao Qing sighed, pouted with self-inflicted discontent, and then put on a nonchalant look before leaving after setting down the things.

    Tsk, my good intentions are taken for granted. What kind of person is he? Xiao Qing complained inwardly and intentionally slammed the door with a loud "bang". The heavy sound resonated, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

    Xiao Jue gritted his teeth as he watched his every move, infuriated to the point where he almost threw off the blanket and punched him right off the bed! If it wasn't for the fact that this little brat still had some conscience, and considering the fact that he brought food, Xiao Jue would have definitely started educating him a long time ago!
