Just so-so? That's all?
Feng Timo's standard evaluation almost made him grit his teeth. As Ye Xiao's current sister, although Feng Timo liked to use all kinds of excuses to bully Ye Xiao, he would never allow others to say anything bad about Ye Xiao, even if it was his closest best friend!
Feng Timo pressed the voice message recording button and took a deep breath. He threatened word by word through gritted teeth,""Zhou! Two! Ke! I'll give you a chance to rephrase now!”
Zhou Erke, who was on the other end of the phone, couldn't help but be slightly stunned by the serious tone that had never appeared before. She looked at the live broadcast video that was playing on the computer screen, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. With a strange expression, she asked,""I say, your brother pressed you on his leg last night and hit…hit that place, but you're still so protective of him?”
"What is this?"
The sudden change in the topic stunned Feng Timo for a moment, but then he stuttered and shouted,"You, you, you…How did you know?”
Speaking of which, it was a little funny. Although Feng Timo was severely punished during the live broadcast last night, he didn't care even though he was shy. After all, netizens were just netizens. Feng Timo, who had a free and easy personality, never cared about how these people would think of him.
However, Zhou Erke was obviously not one of them. Because they had similar interests and were of similar ages, Feng Timo would often go out to karaoke with this close friend of his. If Zhou Erke mentioned such an embarrassing matter in front of him, Feng Timo couldn't imagine where he should put his little face.
Zhou Erke couldn't help but laugh at his stuttering and flustered tone. She casually turned the volume of the computer to the maximum and deliberately moved her phone next to the speaker. After recording all the strange slapping sounds, she explained with a smirk,""Guess how I know? Tsk, tsk, tsk…As expected of a music major. Even when you're being beaten up, you can still scream so beautifully. If I were a man, I would definitely marry you!”
Reality proved that one should never think too highly of a girl. Although Zhou Erke was gentle and elegant during the live broadcast, when there were no outsiders, the seemingly quiet Zhou Erke was even dirtier than the little dirty demon king, Feng Timo. Her undisguised teasing almost made Feng Timo so embarrassed that he almost crawled into the ground.
Fortunately, Zhou Erke was just saying it casually. Seeing that Feng Timo had not replied to her for a long time, Zhou Erke secretly pursed her lips and asked curiously,""You haven't answered me yet! Why didn't you tell me that you have a brother?”
Feng Timo secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the question. He put the phone to his mouth and explained awkwardly,"This…my brother is afraid of affecting my work, so he has been unwilling to show up.”
Affect work?
Zhou Erke was slightly stunned. After a short moment of consideration, she asked with a strange expression,""Your brother…he can't be thinking of you as a streamer like Douyu's Three Sluts, right?”
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't talk nonsense!"
Feng Timo retorted angrily. He was probably worried that Zhou Erke would treat Ye Xiao as a scumbag who allowed his sister to 'sell her body' but did not care. He pouted angrily and explained very seriously,""You know my family's situation too. My brother dropped out of junior high school to work to earn money to support me. It's because he's not educated enough to be afraid of embarrassing me, so he doesn't want others to know.”
Even though Feng Timo did not explain in detail, Zhou Erke could still roughly imagine how much Ye Xiao had paid to support Feng Timo with just this simple description.
Pausing for a moment, Zhou Erke seemed to have suddenly thought of something very important. She frowned slightly and asked in a strange tone,""Then you just let your brother become invisible? Are you worried that he will affect your net worth?"
Feng Timo couldn't help but pout at the faint disdain in her words. Seeing that Zhou Erke had already treated him as a gold digger who despised her poor family after her wings had hardened, Feng Timo explained in an aggrieved manner,""I didn't want it to be like this, but my brother cares about this very much. He was even angry at me at that time!”
It was funny, but if it were any other girl who explained in such a pitiful tone, Zhou Erke would understand.
However, when she thought of Feng Timo's usual lawless and arrogant personality, Zhou Erke secretly pursed her lips and lectured him disdainfully,""Stop talking nonsense with me! Even the fearless Feng Timo was afraid? Even if you want to lie to me, you have to find a similar excuse, right?”
Although he really wanted to preserve his face in front of his best friend, Feng Timo could only answer honestly after hesitating for a long time in the face of Zhou Erke's serious tone that sounded like a question,""I really didn't lie to you! My brother has never scolded me before, but he almost hit me that time! It was the kind of real fight! That's why I…"
The reluctant explanation made Zhou Erke's heart throb for no reason. As the absolute goddess of the live streaming industry, Zhou Erke had never thought that she would one day feel envious or even jealous of other women.
…………
Different life experiences often shaped different life pursuits. Ye Xiao hoped that Feng Timo could get married and have children safely, while Feng Timo hoped that he could always be like now, staying by Ye Xiao's side without worries.
However, Zhou Erke's situation was obviously a little special. It was completely different from Ye Xiao and Feng Timo's loneliness. Zhou Erke had a very complete family. Her father was a teacher at a key high school in the city, and her mother was a head nurse at the central hospital in the city. This kind of job was an iron rice bowl that laid golden eggs twenty years ago.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Zhou Erke was, from a certain point of view, a rich missy born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
It was a pity that everything had its pros and cons. Be it being a teacher or a nurse, these two seemingly glorious jobs had brought Zhou Erke a carefree childhood where she could even squander freely. However, at the same time, it was destined that Zhou Erke would never be able to enjoy family love like her peers.
Every time she couldn't sleep at home alone, the young Zhou Erke would often have some unrealistic fantasies.
If I could have a brother, would he feed me gently like my mother? Will he be like Dad and force me to study?
If I had a brother, would he pull my hair like those annoying boys? Will you stand up for me when I'm being bullied?
If I could have a brother…would I no longer be lonely because of his existence? Will I no longer be afraid because of his existence?
………
Although Zhou Erke had grown up, her once youthful dream had not faded with time. Instead, it had been buried in a corner of her heart that no one would ever know in a deeper way, waiting for the right time to take root and sprout.
