Jian Qing nodded, “Very important.”

Upon hearing this, a pungent sour scent instantly spread in the air.

“Is he more important than me?”

Jian Qing chuckled softly, gripping his hand, “Are you jealous?”

Quan Jingwu admitted straightforwardly, “Yes, I am jealous. Don’t change the subject. Is he more important than me?”

Jian Qing pondered for a moment, a hint of slyness flashed in the depths of her eyes, “What will you do if I say yes?”

At her words, the man’s dazzling, enchanting purple eyes instantly dimmed. Jian Qing looked at him, immediately regretting the words she had said just to tease him.

The next second, he abruptly grabbed her wrist; he lowered his head and pecked her lips lightly, his actions swift and decisive.

Before she had time to react, the man’s deep and gentle voice rang out, “No matter how important he is to you, one day, I will squeeze him out from the bottom of your heart, and I will fill your heart entirely.”

He did not partake in her past, but he had every intention to monopolize her present and future.

Jian Qing was stunned for a moment, her red lips slowly curving up.

This domineering tenderness wrapped around her like a vine, bit by bit, encasing her entirely.

Unable to escape, nor did she want to.

The doorbell suddenly rang, Quan Jingwu released her hand and stood up to open the door.

The moment he left, Snowball seized the chance, running back into Jian Qing’s arms.

At the doorway, Quan Mingxuan looked at the person who opened the door, with a smug smile on his face, “Jingwu, I have delivered food all the way to your door, don’t you plan to invite me in?”

This guy must be hiding a beauty in his house, otherwise, he wouldn’t suddenly order food from Qianshi Restaurant.

“You can leave now.” Quan Jingwu took the bag from his hand and was about to close the door.

“Hey, wait a moment, wait.” Quan Mingxuan quickly blocked the closing door, grinned obsequiously, “I have something to tell you, don’t be so heartless, after all, we are family.”

Quan Jingwu said, “We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

The more he wouldn’t let him in, the more curious he was about the situation inside. Quan Mingxuan clung to the door frame, “I really have something urgent to tell you, let me in…”

His words stopped abruptly. When he saw the person walking from a distance, Quan Mingxuan smirked.

“Brother, no wonder you won’t let me in, you’re hiding a beauty here.”

Quan Jingwu suppressed the urge to smack him away, “Get lost.”

“Xiaojing.” Jian Qing walked over upon hearing his voice, only seeing his back.

Seizing the opportunity, Quan Mingxuan quickly shouted, “Jian Qing, tell Jingwu to let me in. I brought dinner for you guys.”

Jian Qing walked over and only then did she notice Quan Mingxuan, who was being blocked by the door. Seeing the two brothers at a standoff at the door, she couldn’t help but laugh.

She reached out to tug at Quan Jingwu’s sleeve, “Xiaojing.”

Quan Mingxuan’s eyes suddenly lit up. Xiaojing?

Had he heard it wrong?

Their family’s prideful and aloof Jingwu was actually being called Xiaojing?

Even his aunt had never given him such a cute nickname.

“You go in first.” Quan Jingwu handed the bag to her, his purple eyes sweeping over Quan Mingxuan with a chill.

Jian Qing took the bag back to the house, and Quan Mingxuan immediately became restless.

“Tsk tsk, Xiaojing!” He intentionally elongated his voice, winking at Quan Jingwu, “Sounds good, why didn’t I think of it before?”

“Quan – Ming – Xuan!” Quan Jingwu’s purple eyes flashed with icy flecks, his voice cold as mid-winter, “Are you asking for a beating?”

Discretion is the better part of valor. Quan Mingxuan coughed lightly, “Jingwu, the food will be cold if we don’t eat now, let’s go inside.”

With a cold snort, Quan Jingwu turned and walked into the room. Quan Mingxuan closed the door and leisurely followed him in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Snowball spinning around Jian Qing’s feet and showed a look of surprise.

Typically, Snowball acted aloof. Even with him and Yimo, Snowball wasn’t as close to them as it was now with Jian Qing.

Had Jian Qing fed it some sort of enchantment?

Quan Jingwu came out of the kitchen with bowls and chopsticks. Jian Qing began to set the dishes out on the table from the takeaway containers.

They moved in sync, like an old married couple who had been together for a long time.

While he hadn’t paid close attention at the door, now, watching the couple standing next to the dinner table, Quan Mingxuan’s eyes sparkled as if he’d discovered something incredible.

Wow, matching outfits!

Now that they’ve put on matching outfits, how far along are things between them?

“Young Master Quan, would you like to join us for dinner?” Jian Qing looked up at Quan Mingxuan, finding his smiling face somewhat strange, she couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

“He’s on a diet, don’t mind him.” Quan Jingwu served her some food, glanced at Quan Mingxuan with obvious disdain.

Quan Mingxuan pulled up a chair and sat down uninvited, grinning, “Who said I’m dieting? I haven’t had dinner yet, and delivered food to you guys. If there’s no merit, there’s at least hard work, right? What’s wrong with having a meal here? Stingy you! Learn from Jian Qing, she’s so polite.”

Jian Qing quietly ate her food, watching the bickering between the two brothers, as if she were watching a show.
