Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten
Chapter 486 Witness
CHAPTER 486: CHAPTER 486 WITNESS
Lying on the warm kang, Gong Ruini hugged the quilt, feeling a lot more relaxed.
Wait a minute, why is the sky outside bright? Only then did Gong Ruini notice something was amiss outside.
No way, she was just thinking of taking a little rest, how did she end up sleeping till dawn?
Ever since the trip began, she had been taking naps during the day frequently, so her sleep had become fragmented, and it had been a long time since she had such a good sleep.
But the kang is indeed comfortable; Gong Ruini rolled around in the quilt a bit, the feeling of not waking up to a cold bed was super nice.
Zhao Xuran was just about to knock on the door when he saw Gong Ruini rolling around with the quilt. She was indeed just a girl.
But judging by her appearance, she must have slept well, which made Zhao Xuran relieved, knowing that yesterday Zhao Guangran had complained about feeling all sorts of discomfort lying in bed, and if he hadn’t been utterly exhausted later, who knows when he would have fallen asleep.
Zhao Xuran really hadn’t expected his lively younger brother to have such a problem with recognizing the bed, which made him very worried about Gong Ruini.
As for whether Zhao Guangran slept well and whether this issue would improve, Zhao Xuran didn’t care at all; he was worried whether Gong Ruini would be like this too.
Gong Ruini rolled for a while, yawned, and was about to get up, not because she didn’t want to lie on the kang a bit longer, but her stomach protested with rumbling sounds.
Just as she was about to get up and get dressed, she saw Zhao Xuran’s figure leaning against the door watching the room.
Oh, what’s with this guy? Doesn’t he know that a girl’s room is not for a man to casually enter?
Although she is just a bean sprout now, bean sprouts do develop, and Gong Ruini plans to eat pig trotters every day in a few years to become voluptuous.
By then, if Zhao Xuran barges in like this again, it would be like he’s not taking her seriously at all.
"Brother Xu Ran, you should knock before entering." Gong Ruini said very seriously.
Back in the Northeast, Gong Ruini always thought of doing this, but unfortunately, first, she shared a room with Gong Ruwen, and later with Hua Miaozhu, leaving her with no private space, and when Zhan Banxia and the others were young, they would invade whenever they wanted.
After thinking it over, Gong Ruini decided that she must quickly get them to develop the habit of knocking before entering, otherwise, by the time they grow up, it would be hard for them to get used to this habit.
Knock? Zhao Xuran looked at Gong Ruini’s sullen face, "How did I not knock?"
It seems like the little girl was a bit too excited just now, otherwise, she wouldn’t have missed the sound of knocking.
Oh, was there a knock? Gong Ruini didn’t hear it, but Zhao Xuran isn’t someone who would hide things from her. "Oh, then I’m going to get dressed now."
Even if there was a knock, he shouldn’t stand here and watch her change clothes.
"It’s not like I haven’t seen it before." Zhao Guangran, after waiting but not seeing Zhao Xuran come back, walked over and heard Gong Ruini speaking, and really didn’t understand what there was to hide about Gong Ruini’s body. It’s not like he hadn’t seen it before.
Not like he hadn’t seen it before, Gong Ruini’s face turned black; this is her black history. Wouldn’t Zhao Guangran, this big mouth, bring it up often in the future? How would she hold her head high in the future?
The thought of Zhao Guangran occasionally mentioning this when she grows up terrified her.
Don’t say she will become a graceful lady; maybe she will end up with a major scandal.
"Hmph, seems I need to teach you a lesson." Gong Ruini, furious, glared at Zhao Guangran, thinking of how to give him a good lesson.
Oh, how did he forget, Gong Ruini is such a petty girl; ah, women are such petty creatures, and besides, he didn’t look on purpose, she showed it herself.
Zhao Xuran was also displeased, "How old are you? Can’t you think before you speak?" Zhao Xuran really didn’t know what his brother was thinking, why didn’t he consider the consequences.
"You say this at home, fine, but what if you say it outside and people hear it?"
"That was when Ni Zi was little, right?" Though Zhao Guangran agreed his brother made some valid points, he was really displeased with how unkindly his brother criticized him.
"People don’t care about your childhood, they only care about Ni Zi now." Zhao Xuran signaled Zhao Guangran to apologize.
This is his big brother, never siding with him. Helpless, Zhao Guangran could only say, "Ni Zi, I’m sorry."
"Just sorry?" Gong Ruini didn’t care what Zhao Guangran might say about her behind her back, so what if she’s petty.
Ha, he already apologized, how come Gong Ruini still wouldn’t let it go? This made Zhao Guangran a bit dissatisfied.
"Will you mention it in the future?" Gong Ruini wanted Zhao Guangran never to bring it up again.
Oh, so she wanted this promise, no matter what, first get through this hurdle; Zhao Guangran thought, isn’t it just a promise? He’s used to this.
"If you break the promise and bring it up again, you must compensate me with a portion of your earnings." Gong Ruini, who grew up with Zhao Guangran, knew how unreliable his promises could be.
Ah, no way, Zhao Guangran was someone who frequently made promises, just thinking about making a proper apology to satisfy his brother and Ni Zi, and before he could even say a word, Gong Ruini said this, how could he not be anxious?
Knowing that once he agrees, this girl will keep a close eye on him, punishing him for any minor slip-up.
Thinking about how his wallet might shrink, Zhao Guangran just wanted to walk away.
"See, I knew Brother Guangran, you’d just say it." Gong Ruini glanced at Zhao Xuran.
Just kidding, why would she argue with Zhao Guangran over this? Isn’t Zhao Xuran her big brother, let him handle it?
"Guangran, do you have a problem?" Zhao Xuran thought Ni Zi made sense, and given his brother’s credibility, even he, as the big brother, couldn’t shamelessly say Zhao Guangran deserves a chance.
Ah, of course, there are issues, huge issues, Zhao Guangran was wholly dissatisfied. But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only say, "I won’t mention seeing Ni Zi without clothes anymore, and if I break this, my earnings will compensate Ni Zi."
Though the words were short, saying them broke Zhao Guangran’s heart, after all, it was about money.
Zhao Guangran’s heart was shattered, Gong Ruini felt barely satisfied, but it wasn’t enough, "Brother Xuran, you be the witness."
With Zhao Xuran as a witness, only then did Gong Ruini feel reassured.
Oh dear, isn’t this somewhat excessive, blatantly showing distrust? Zhao Guangran thought about complaining.
"Alright, I’ll be the witness." Zhao Xuran happily indicated his willingness to be the witness.
Watching as the matter settled like this, Zhao Guangran truly regretted worrying about whether his big brother would be hungry, wanting him to eat breakfast.
He had all kinds of brotherly love, but his big brother was always looking to sell him out; he vowed never to take pity on his brother again.
Fuming, Zhao Guangran stomped off to eat breakfast, as for when his brother and the others would eat, how is that his concern?
Anyway, with a good sister around, his brother wouldn’t go hungry.
