Chapter 2872: Chapter 2872: The First to Find Her (10)

Only Dan Tingye is smarter than him, and will find ways not to provoke Dan Hanjie, while he can only foolishly rush in as cannon fodder.

What is it like to have a more "sly" older brother?

Typically, Dan Tingye wouldn’t bother with him, but when someone needs to take the fall, he would definitely think of him first.

After getting beaten up so many times, he began to dislike Dan Tingye.

The feelings between boys are strange; "no fight, no friendship" is probably the best explanation.

He never said it, but deep down he really admired Dan Hanjie. Later, he discovered that Dan Tingye was the same, only Dan Tingye was always cool and not even close to his own dad.

After realizing this, Jiang Nan deliberately tried to win Dan Hanjie’s favor and even went out of his way to act coquettishly with Qin Youxuan.

This time, he really hit Dan Tingye’s nerve.

One afternoon when there were no adults around, the two of them arranged to meet and fight.

He can’t remember how long they fought that day, but by the end, both of them had lost all sense of order, like street hooligans, holding onto each other fiercely tearing away.

The first time he saw Meimei was that day.

She was tiny, rosy pink, like a glutinous rice dumpling, wearing her hair in a bun, dressed in a beautiful little dress, with delicate features combined perfectly, she was the prettiest girl he’d ever seen.

"Tingye-gege, Auntie said no fighting." That was the first sentence he heard Meimei say.

Meimei’s voice was as gentle and pleasing as she was.

She stood at the side at that time, holding two lollipops, seemingly intending to share them with Dan Tingye. Seeing both of them covered in mud rolling on the ground with injuries on their faces, her big watery eyes looked as if she might cry any moment, a timid voice like a frightened bunny.

While he was still dazed, Dan Tingye had already jumped to his feet as if electrified, quickly shook him off, and walked over to Meimei.

"Brother wasn’t fighting, we were just playing around. Did we scare you?"

"Not scared, just afraid Auntie will scold you." Meimei was younger than them, not as articulate, but her little hands worked hard to dust off Dan Tingye.

Seeing how she couldn’t get the dirt off of him no matter how much she tried, she was almost in tears, but still so adorable.

At that moment, Jiang Nan thought that if he had a sister like that, he wouldn’t bother fighting with Dan Tingye. He’d be busy coaxing his sister to play instead.

As it turned out, when Dan Tingye saw Meimei then, he immediately left him alone and took Meimei away.

Eventually, the object of his rivalry with Dan Tingye shifted from seeking the favor of Dan Hanjie and Qin Youxuan to gaining Meimei’s attention.

To get Meimei’s notice, Jiang Nan did many silly things.

Like always tugging her dress, pulling her hair, even throwing little insects at her...

Meimei was very timid, and each time he bullied her, she would cry, then Dan Tingye would come over and beat him up.

No matter who won or lost, whenever Meimei saw them fighting, she would cry beside them as if she were the one being hit.

Multiple times he wondered if she was made of water, so prone to crying.

Later he learned that Meimei didn’t have a father, her background was very pitiful, and she was very well-behaved.

No matter how he bullied her, each time she saw him, she would still obediently call him "Jiang Nan-gege."

He didn’t remember when it started, but he could no longer bring himself to truly bully her, and when he saw her being bullied, he’d rush over angrily like Dan Tingye, throwing punches at whoever was bullying her.
