Chapter 153: Chapter 153: The Nation-Ruining and People-Harming Demon (1)_1

"I joke that my brother is a beacon for thousands, shining for everyone!"

"Baby, don’t be so poetic. Give me something I can understand."

"It means you’re like central heating, warming anyone who’s near."

Xia Chen’an: "..."

"What’s wrong? Not satisfied with this description? Then let me change it..." Xia Wan’an tilted her head to look at her brother and then, with twinkling eyes, spoke again: "So...my brother is like a public restroom, available for anyone to use."

Gone from a beacon for thousands to central heating to a public restroom, Xia Chen’an wore a wounded expression and clutched his chest.

"What, still not satisfied? Shall I come up with another one?"

Before Xia Wan’an could continue, Xia Chen’an pushed the afternoon tea the waiter brought over to her, smiling gently: "Alright, baby, eat quickly. It won’t taste good once it cools down."

Xia Wan’an let Xia Chen’an of the hook and picked up her fork, happily indulging in her cake.

Xia Chen’an watched Xia Wan’an whole-heartedly enjoy her food, a small smile playing on his lips.

The siblings’ sitting spot was by the window overlooking an artificial lake filled with lotus flowers. Half-drawn curtains rippled in the breeze, emitting a pleasing, serene atmosphere.

After Xia Wan’an had eaten the majority of her cake, she glanced in her brother’s direction. A beam of sunlight brightened Xia Chen’an’s features, exaggerating his allure. His lips were always tipped up in a restrained smile, projecting a somewhat ambiguous charm.

Xia Wan’an, after taking a good look at Xia Chen’an, couldn’t help but ruminate over how her brother once looked more captivating in women’s clothing than she did. "Back in ancient times, he could’ve brought a country to ruin with his charm!" she mused to herself.

However, this charming figure, who was quite decent before college, somehow began to flirt with everyone he met once he started university. What’s worse, he never took responsibility for his actions, quite the playboy.

As she thought about all this, Xia Wan’an couldn’t help but ask aloud, "Brother, when will you finally find a sister-in-law for me?"

"I’m always trying, baby. I’ve even registered on a matchmaking website." Xia Chen’an replied, pulling out a tissue to wipe some frosting off Xia Wan’an’s hair.

Xia Wan’an’s interest piqued: "Find anyone yet?"

"I did find someone..."

Xia Wan’an’s eyes lit up.

"I found a fugitive. A man impersonating a woman, scamming and deceiving. Quite the player."

Xia Wan’an: "..." Is this an occupational hazard? What happened to dating? Why did it turn into catching a fugitive?

Xia Chen’an poured a cup of black tea for Xia Wan’an, "How about you? Baby, have you met anyone interesting?"

"Um...I’m quite good, actually. I made a new friend. A big celebrity."

"Oh? Who’s the lucky star?"

"It’s Qin Shujian, the one who shot to fame after that New Year’s movie..."

As the name ’Qin Shujian’ rolled off Xia Wan’an’s tongue, Xia Chen’an shivered, his warm eyes turning cold in an instant.

Xia Wan’an, oblivious to her brother’s odd reaction, continued, "Do you know her, brother? I guess you don’t, as you never watch dramas. She and I sort of hit it off, you know? Although she’s all glammed up when she’s on the screen, she’s really quite naive in real life, a bit silly even. I quite like her..."

Xia Chen’an remained silent, his fingers pressing hard against the tabletop.

Does he know her? Of course, he knows. Qin Shujian...he’d recognize her even if she turned to ashes.
