Chapter 373: Protecting Fourth Brother

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Tang Sha stood in front of Murong Qiao, waiting for her to curry favor with her after hearing her name.

She came from the Tang Family and had been embellished by her father’s business since she was young. As soon as she graduated from a foreign university, she started to build her own company. This time, she returned to the country with the intention of expanding the domestic market.

Because of this, she targeted Yan Xiu, who had recently won an award and become famous, and wanted to cooperate with him to seek a win-win situation.

Unfortunately, when she went to ask Yan Xiu out a few times, the other party rejected her without giving her any face.

That was also why there was a scene just now. Tang Sha didn’t know Murong Qiao at all and even mistook her for her business opponent.

However, she didn’t see the reaction she expected. Instead, she watched as Murong Qiao ignored her with a blank expression.

“You don’t know me?” Tang Sha was in disbelief.

Hearing this, Murong Qiao imitated the other party and “sized up” Tang Sha. Then, under the other party’s expectant gaze, she slowly spat out three words “I don’t know”.

Murong Qiao’s expression was indifferent. “1 should know you?”

Her disdainful tone almost angered Tang Sha.

“What a joke. You’re just here to discuss a collaboration. Could it be that you’ve also learned some useless arrogance from Yan Xiu?” Tang Sha immediately mocked.

Yan Xiu was not around now, so she naturally didn’t have so many scruples when speaking.

However, she didn’t expect Yan Xiu, who only used the toilet as an excuse to seek peace and quiet, to stand in the corridor outside the banquet door and hear her conversation with his Little Sister clearly.

Murong Qiao’s expression turned cold. “Useless arrogance?”

Hearing the other party say that about her Fourth Brother, an unknown anger rose in Murong Qiao’s heart almost instantly.

“What else could it be?” Tang Sha was still unaware. “Those who rely on art to make a living are all like this. Did 1 say something wrong?”

“If his hand is crippled, what else can he do?” She sneered.

These words were very malicious. It was also because Tang Sha had been ignored by Yan Xiu for a few days that she said this casually to vent her emotions.

Yan Xiu was really too lazy to cooperate, but Tang Sha’s heart was filled with benefits. She only thought that Yan Xiu was doing this to raise his value.

She didn’t know that Yan Xiu was the Young Master of the Murong Family, but she had seen too many similar people in her business, so she included him in that category.

However, Murong Qiao was angry. “No wonder you couldn’t succeed in getting his cooperation.”

Tang Sha was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“If his art is ruined by someone like you, he might as well destroy it himself.” Murong Qiao retorted mercilessly.

“In my opinion, the designs he casually drew are much better-looking than the one you’re wearing.” Murong Qiao snorted impolitely. “He’s not arrogant even after winning the awards. He’s immersed in his own designs. It’s easy to see his efforts on any piece of clothing he designs.”

Murong Qiao raised his eyebrows with a proud expression. “He’s talented in everything and is focused on his career. He’s also good-looking…”

Murong Qiao could list many of her Fourth Brother’s strengths at once.

“No matter what, he’s much better than you think he is. The word arrogance doesn’t exist on him.” Murong Qiao did not forget to retort.

Usually, she wouldn’t be so rude.

However, Murong Qiao couldn’t tolerate the other party’s evaluation of Yan Xiu.

Yan Xiu pursed his lips, but his ears subconsciously turned red. His heart warmed at his Little Sister’s words.

“…” He slowly exhaled and turned to look in his Little Sister’s direction under the cover of the crowd.

Murong Qiao stood there, her thick black hair falling on both sides of her shoulders after being carefully styled, making her look obedient. However, the words she said to specially protect him were clearly very unreasonable. When she looked up at Tang Sha, her eyes were sparkling, thin, and beautiful.

It was clearly the same as usual, but at this moment, Yan Xiu felt that his Little Sister seemed much more pleasing to him.

Tang Sha’s face turned red from her criticism. She mouthed the word “You” for a long time, but couldn’t say anything back.

“What? Miss vulgar—lady.” Murong Qiao specifically targeted her.

She stood there with a straight back and a self-righteous expression. Yan Xiu, who was walking over, couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Tang Sha originally wanted to say something, but when she saw Yan Xiu appear behind Murong Qiao, she suddenly acted like a victim, wanting to gain Yan Xiu’s sympathy.

Unfortunately, the powder on her 30-year-old face was about to fall off. Yan Xiu only felt that it hurt his eyes.

He placed a hand on Murong Qiao’s shoulder and patted her comfortingly. Then, he turned his gaze to Tang Sha.

“Cooperation is out of the question.” Yan Xiu directly put an end to the other party’s thoughts.

He said coldly. Then, ignoring the stiff smile on her face and the disbelief on her face, he pulled Murong Qiao away from this person who made him uncomfortable.

Murong Qiao was shocked by Yan Xiu’s sudden appearance. “Fourth Brother, why didn’t you tell me that you were coming back…”

She felt a little helpless. Her forced calmness couldn’t hide the panic in her heart.

Could Fourth Brother have heard everything just now? She shouldn’t have said it so loudly… but what if he heard it…

Murong Qiao was conflicted. She didn’t have time to pay attention to Tang Sha now.

However, when Tang Sha heard the way Murong Qiao addressed Yan Xiu, her face turned pale and she couldn’t stand steadily. She subconsciously held the table beside her.

They… are siblings?

Realizing how stupid she had been just now, Tang Sha finally lost her arrogance, but it was already irreversible.

Yan Xiu remembered this person in his heart and planned to tell his assistant later to blacklist her.

Then, his attention strangely returned to what his Little Sister had said just now. He suddenly couldn’t help but correct her.

“Designs can’t be completed in a casual stroke,” he said seriously.

As expected, he heard it!

Murong Qiao felt like an atomic bomb had exploded in her mind. “…Actually, 1 just don’t want her to say that about you.”

She braced herself and said this, but the more she said, the more she felt like she was about to die.

After all, when she was protecting her Big Brother alone, Murong Qiao could be said to be a god of war. However, when the person involved was beside him and had heard the entire process, this feeling was immediately different.

“Right,” Yan Xiu replied simply and did not continue.

Murong Qiao didn’t say much. This time, her mind was in a mess. She stood beside her Fourth Brother, her thoughts flying.

On the other hand, when Yan Xiu saw Murong Qiao standing there just now, a new inspiration burst out in his mind.

Ever since he gave her the set of clothes last time, he didn’t seem to have paid much attention to his Little Sister.

Yan Xiu’s gaze landed on his Little Sister. He realized that she was wearing one of the rose gowns to attend the engagement banquet today, and a trace of frustration flashed across his eyes.

Although Yan Xiu didn’t like to socialize, he had seen examples of those Madams and Young Misses going crazy over their clothes and even spending a huge sum of money to buy many clothes just to keep them in the wardrobe.

In comparison, his Little Sister’s only set of clothes suddenly became much duller.

A theme like the starry skies was suitably dreamy and all girls should like it. Or perhaps the theme of the sea was very suitable for her too. He could push back the things he’s working on…

“Fourth Brother?” Murong Qiao called out to him softly.

Yan Xiu came back to his senses. “What is it?”

“When the banquet starts later, I’ll go and greet Ruan Ying first?” She asked Yan Xiu for his opinion.

Thinking that his Fourth Brother did not like to interact with outsiders, Murong Qiao firmly believed that this mission would fall on her..
