He couldn't help but suspect if Zhou Xing was a person from ancient times. Cousins... Zhou Xing's brain structure was really different from ordinary people.
"I heard that children nowadays especially like to stay at home and read novels regarding time travel. Do you think that Zhou Xing might have read too much of such novels and thus her brain became abnormal and she mixed the story up with reality?"
Zhai Xin wiped dry the water droplets on his hair and let out an exasperated low roar."How would I know? I have never seen them before. Also, hold it. From today onward, that woman's name has to disappear from both our mouths. Don't mention it anymore. If you do, I'm afraid I might not be able to have dinner tonight."
He only wished that he could forget Zhou Xing as soon as possible. He wanted to treat Zhou Xing like a nightmare so that when he opened his eyes after waking up, the nightmare would disappear without a trace and leave nothing behind.
Zhai Yi couldn't help but laugh."Okay."
Zhai Yi had just finished saying so when the phone Zhai Xin threw to the bed started ringing. Zhai Xin thought that Qiao Nan had called to tell him she had reached home. He walked over and wanted to answer the call. However, when Zhai Xin saw Zhou Xing's name from the caller ID, he was immediately disgusted. He treated his mobile as a virus and threw it heavily on his bed, staying far away from it."She, she, she... she's calling me again. If she's sick, she should go to the hospital!"
Why did she keep calling him? He wasn't a doctor and couldn't treat her.
After thinking for a while, Zhai Xin picked up his phone again. However, he didn't answer the call. Instead, he used a needle and poked it into the hole, ejecting the SIM card."Are you my brother? If you are, accompany me to change a new SIM card. After that, help me send a short text to Mom, grandma, and the rest that I've changed my number."fr𝙚ℯ𝓌e𝚋𝙣ovℯl - 🅽🅽novel
On account that Zhai Xin was 'hurt' and pestered by the mentally unsound Zhou Xing, Zhai Yi wasn't calculative toward Zhai Xin. It was rare for him to be good-tempered and do whatever Zhai Xin wanted him to do.
Having just gotten out of such a deadly relationship, his younger brother required proper companionship, which he, as a good elder brother, should provide. At the very least, he had to let Zhai Xin understand that even if he didn't have love, he still had kinship.
Zhai Xin replaced the SIM card at the fastest speed. Aside from family, he didn't inform any of his classmates. Of course, the teachers and professors who taught him were exceptions. The reason why Zhai Xin didn't inform his classmates about the change of his mobile number was also because of the lesson he learned today.
An onlooker sees the game best.
After Zhai Xin calmed down, how could he not have felt that when he and Zhai Yi had just appeared at the school gate, Zhou Xing was soon right behind them as if she had received news in advance? Zhou Xing's spies must be nearby! In order to prevent him from having a need to change his SIM card again, Zhai Xin decided to keep his mouth shut and not let any of his classmates know.
It was rare for Zhai Yi to compliment Zhai Xin."There are times that you're still smart." He always felt that ever since Zhai Xin dated Zhou Xing, even if he wasn't serious yet, his IQ had dropped by quite a bit.
It was rare to hear Zhai Yi's exaggeration and approval, but Zhai Xin couldn't feel happy at all. If he could choose, he would rather not have this compliment. Zhai Yi's compliment was no different from a slap to his face.
It was better not to have this compliment.
Zhai Xin had originally spent most of his time and efforts on studies and training. After encountering a pitfall like Zhou Xing, Zhai Xin delved further into these aspects.
In the past, Shi Qing and Zhu Baoguo had already started receiving missions when they were students in school as their performance was good. Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin could be said to have strong family roots. Their family, from their great-grandfather's generation to their father's generation, had performed outstandingly after entering the army. One had to know that there were already three generations of chiefs from the Zhai family.
Moreover, the Zhai family had an extremely good relationship with the Zhu family, the Li family, and the Shi family. Shi Qing and Zhu Baoguo's son, Zhu Yu, could be said to have grown up in the Zhai family since he was young. He treated Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin like his birth brothers.
With such a family influence, how would Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin not become great soldiers? Seeing that there was an opportunity, Zhai Xin applied to join the mission without saying a word. One had to know that it wasn't always good for veteran soldiers to appear in some missions. It would be easier to confuse the enemy and not be discovered by them by changing new faces from time to time.
If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely be prohibited from carrying out a mission while still schooling. However, Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin were not ordinary students. Zhu Baoguo had an outstanding performance as well. After his father, Zhu Chengqi, became Elder Zhu, Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin even started to call him their godfather.
As for Shi Qing, even though she didn't manage to become a chief like Zhu Baoguo, she was already regarded as a famous queen soldier and general in the army. It could be said that apart from Shi Peng, Shi Qing was the most outstanding in the entire Shi family.
Elder Shi had always looked down on Shi Qing. He only treated her as an ordinary granddaughter and thought of finding a capable young man who would be helpful to the Shi family and let Shi Qing marry him when she had grown up.
In the end, not only did Shi Qing marry well, but most importantly, she was extremely outstanding. She was only within a stone's throw from the expectations that Elder Shi had for Shi Peng, his son, and had performed better than Shi Peng that year.
As such, Elder Shi left with a smile. He felt that he could answer to their family's ancestors. The Shi family had always been bumpkins, until his generation. After that, Shi Peng worked hard and made it to the central government. Shi Qing was one of the most promising grandchildren the Shi family had. Although the Shi family had a short history, he could be said to have answered to the surname Shi.
Actually, before he died, Elder Shi wanted to get closer to Shi Qing. All these years, he had given Qiu Chenxi all the resources he had. Shi Qing, his birth granddaughter, didn't get any benefits at all. Shi Qing climbed up the ranks and became a famous female general. In contrast, Qiu Chenxi, who had received Elder Shi's help, was unfit for a higher post but willing to take a lower one.
She didn't get married at a young age and it was not easy for her to meet Peng Yu. The Peng family also treated Qiu Chenxi as their daughter-in-law and had brought her around everywhere. Who knew that Elder Shi was only happy for a few days? In the blink of an eye, the Peng family had arranged for Peng Yu to marry an international student.
Elder Shi threw a great tantrum because of this matter and asked Qiu Chenxi to settle scores with the Peng family.
