Chapter 828: Life Is Not All Roses
“Take it. Since there’s a first one, there will naturally be a second and a third,” Qian Jiyun said calmly.
Zhan Beiye raised his eyebrows and asked, “Really?”
Were the Nine Suns Pills as common as cabbages, found in abundance everywhere?
“Have I ever lied to you?” Qian Jiyun asked, glancing at him.
“No.” Zhan Beiye shook his head.
Although Qian Jiyun was skilled at scheming, he was sincere and honest with his friends.
“Then I’m really going to take it. I’m really going to take it, okay?”
“Mhm.” Qian Jiyun nodded. “Let’s drink again when you’ve recovered.”
After Zhan Beiyan recovered, Qian Jiyun would no longer have to worry about anyone hurting him. He would have peace of mind.
“Okay.” Zhan Beiye patted Qian Jiyun’s shoulder. “I appreciate this favor, my brother. If I can do anything to help you in the future, you must tell me.”
“I won’t stand on ceremony with you even if you don’t owe me one,” Qian Jiyun said with a smile.
Would he still stand on ceremony with Zhan Beiye? They had known each other for many years. Would he forget about Zhan Beiye if something happened?
“You’re seriously such a boring person.” Zhan Beiyu gave him a playful smack.
“I wanted to go back in the next few days, but it seems like I’ll delay that for a few more days,” he said to Qian Jiyun while looking at the porcelain bottle containing the Nine Suns Pill.
“You’re going back?” Qian Jiyun raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Doesn’ t he dislike going back? Why is he going back now?
Is his family seeking a favor or trying to get something from him again? Sometimes, I think that its better to have no family like myself than to have a
family like Zhan Beiye’s.
“It’s time to go back and take a look. I’ll bring that thing back with me too,” he said.
Zhan Beiye was referring to Zhan Beicheng—his biological younger brother, who had never treated him as family.
Zhan Beicheng had been following him and treating him as an enemy to be killed quickly. He longed to take over the camp so that he could make a name for himself.
Zhan Beiye wanted to laugh at this situation too. How could someone like Zhan Beicheng surpass him?
“You’re not going to protect him anymore?” Qian Jiyun asked sarcastically.
“I can’t protect him anymore.”
How could he continue to shield Zhan Beicheng when his ambitions kept growing? He would only sabotage himself if he protected him any further.
“I just want to know which younger brother would wholeheartedly wish for his older brother to die. He’s probably the only one. Why doesn’t he consider who would guarantee his well-being if I’m no longer there to protect him?”
“Perhaps you should ask if he’s truly your biological younger brother from the same mother,” Qian Jiyun said half-jokingly.
Zhan Beiye rolled his eyes at him.
If Zhan Beicheng had not been his biological younger brother, he would have strangled him to death long ago. Would he have kept him alive until now? “If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.”
“Okay.” Qian Jiyun nodded at him. He did not intend to keep him here for the night.
“Be careful.’
“I know,” Zhan Beiye replied and disappeared from Qian Jiyun’s sight swiftly.
“He’s gone?”
Soon, An Jiuyue walked over and sat beside Qian Jiyun.
“He’s gone.”
Qian Jiyun looked into the distance and sighed softly. He told her all about Zhan Beiye.
“Jiuyue, does everyone go through hardships?” he asked softly as he reached out and pulled her into his arms.
“Probably. Life is not all roses..”
