Chapter 1 — I Raised the President's Younger Brother

The food delivery person texted: "Oh my god, your grilled food is so fragrant, can I have a skewer?" I: "?" Food delivery person: "Just one skewer! Please!" Me: “Yeah… it's up to you.” Five minutes later—— Food delivery person: “Damn! So delicious, can I have another stick?” I: "???" 1. There was a knock on the door. I opened the door and finally had the chance to see this strange shipper with my own eyes. His short chestnut-colored hair was slightly curly, his light brown eyes sparkled with laughter. He panted slightly and handed me the baked goods. “Here are your things.” Completely beyond my expectations. I took it, the corners of my lips curled up slightly: "Are you full? Do you want to eat some more?" I originally intended to tease him, but unexpectedly he calmly nodded. Right after that, he completely ignored my surprised expression, naturally closed the door, and sat down on my sofa. Looking up at me, his eyes seemed to ask why I was still standing there blankly, not opening the baked goods to share with him. I was speechless — are there really such brazen people in this world! We ate all the grilled food together, objectively speaking, he ate more than me. After eating, his eyes were still glued to the part I was holding, making me doubt he had been fasting for three days. Actually, the grilled food is not very good, only the secret chili powder sprinkled on is especially delicious. After eating, he politely thanked me and promised to give me two hundred thousand later. At that moment, I felt so pitiful - he was probably so hungry that he was talking nonsense. 2. Next week, I ordered grilled food from this restaurant again, for no other reason than craving that chili powder. So I wrote a note on the order: “Add lots, lots, lots of chili powder.” Food delivery person: "Sister, I was just watching! He didn't add any chili powder! Not even a little!" Food delivery person: "I see your note tried to add another sentence, but he ignored it!" His voice sounded... warm and angry. This familiar, natural style made me start to feel strangely suspicious. Ten minutes later—— Food delivery person: "Hehehe! When he wasn't paying attention, I stole the whole bottle of chili powder! Hahahahaha! Make him angry!" Wait? Does he know that the shop owner is also in the group chat? No need to doubt anymore, it's him. Opening the door, a familiar face appeared again. There were beads of sweat on his forehead. As soon as he saw me open the door, he smiled brightly. "Here's your stuff! Oh, and there's a gift too!" Sure enough, he really stole someone's chili powder... I glanced at him: "Do you want to eat together today?" He scratched his head: "Hehe, if that's possible then that would be great." I raised my chin towards the sofa, he happily closed the door and ran right in. Today I paid special attention to him - his handsome face stands out in a crowd, his skin is white, clearly not like someone who spends all day in the sun delivering goods. “You ran away from home?” I glanced at him with deep meaning. He froze, then shook his head. “So what?” I wonder. "I was kicked out. My sisters said I was useless and forced me out to suffer. They also locked my bank card and wouldn't let me go home." Hearing his honest and self-pitying voice, I couldn't help but laugh. “The two times I ordered grilled food at this restaurant, you delivered it. It's also very fateful, isn't it~” He shook his head: “You live in such a remote place, I'm the only one who can deliver in this area.” Me: “…” 3. The third time we met, he directly… stayed at my house. That day at midnight, I placed an order for food, and he appeared first door. Looking at the clock, it was almost one in the morning. “It's so late and you still have it delivered?” He nodded sullenly. I saw a tired face and tired eyes. That look makes people feel sorry for him. I thought to myself, your sister is also very cruel. “Sister… can I… stay at your house tonight?” His voice was very small, his head bowed, as if it took a lot of effort to say this sentence. “Ah… that… if it's inconvenient then fine, sorry for making such an unreasonable request.” That expression with downcast eyes resembled a small dog that had lost its home, looking extremely pitiful. I softened and immediately agreed. He slept on the living room sofa, very quiet. The next morning when I woke up, he was gone. On the tea table was a piece of paper with beautiful handwriting: "Thank you for letting me stay! I'm sorry for bothering you. This is my sincerity. The password is..." At this point, I saw a bank card next to the table. It's okay if I don't check, I just finished buying things at the supermarket, and by the way, I checked the balance at the ATM... I took the card and walked out but my hands were still shaking. You said you would give me two hundred thousand, but who would have thought you would actually give it! This is what you call "a little sincerity"?! Just because I bought you two grilled meals and let you stay one night? Just how rich is this kid?! I walked and stared at the card, still feeling a bit uneasy. 4. The fourth time I met you was the turning point in my life — in every sense. This time I didn't order food, but he took the initiative to find it. There was an urgent knock on the door. I quickly opened it and saw him panting: "Sorry... sorry, I'm bothering you again." I looked at him suspiciously and saw that he was still wearing his delivery uniform. "My sister is about to come here, but don't worry, I will explain, she won't do anything!" I seemed to understand: "Is it because of the two hundred thousand thing?" He froze, then blushed and nodded. Immediately after that, he quickly explained: "I didn't mean that! She won't ask for the money back either! It's just... just... a misunderstanding about my relationship with you." I immediately understood, so I leaned against the door frame and smiled: "Does she think I take care of women outside?" He nodded, his face became even redder, the red spreading to his ears. I chuckled. What a… adorable little brother. As soon as we finished speaking, the sound of high heels echoed, and immediately a woman with a sharp temperament appeared in front of us. "Sister! Listen to me explain, she and I don't have that type of relationship, just a few days ago..." "Du Dao?" Hearing her call my name, I was stunned and stared for a long time: "Tieu... Tieu Lam, sister?!" "Pho Du Dao! It's really you!" I was immediately hugged by Tieu Lam, hastily chatting about old stories, leaving her younger brother standing aside, his face full of questions. 5. I never thought that my best friend, who had been lost for many years, was a rich lady, but in the past, she suddenly disappeared without saying goodbye... it turned out that she was forced to inherit the family business. Of course, she is General Manager Tieu now. Tieu Lam and I just talked from outside the door to inside the house. She apologized for leaving that year, and asked me how my life had been over the years. The two of us haven't seen each other for many years, and we have so many things to talk about that we can't finish them for days and nights. No one paid attention to the guy standing to the side. They tried to squeeze in several times but couldn't find the opportunity. Finally, after he circled back and forth first We faced each other a hundred times before we both looked at him at the same time. Tieu Lam rolled his eyes and reluctantly introduced: "This is my younger brother, Tieu Tri An. A... useless guy..." Tieu Tri An immediately frowned, dissatisfied: "Do I have to add the last sentence?" "What if not? Where is your bravery? Do you eat at other people's houses or stay at other people's houses?" He was choked up. Oh my, Tieu Lam really hasn't changed at all. When I was in school, every time I was bullied, she would be the one to step up one-on-five. We chatted for a while longer, and when it was time to eat, Tieu Lam glanced at his watch and immediately pulled me out the door. "I'll take you out to eat delicious food. Don't stay here anymore, I have an empty villa right next to my house, move there, we'll be closer to each other." Tieu Tri An: "Sister..." "What car do you like? Or you like anything else, just tell me frankly." Tieu Tri An: "I..." "Finding you again this time is really great." Tieu Tri An: “Sister…” “If you have anything, say it quickly!!!” Tieu Lam turned around and shouted, the voice was so loud that Tieu Tri An and I were both stunned. “No… nothing… I just wanted to ask… what should I do now…” “How?” Tieu Lam raised her eyebrows and looked at him in disbelief. "You still dare to ask? Are you planning to eat with me and Du Dao? Have you finished delivering the food yet? Get out! Also, why did you only give me two hundred thousand?! So stingy? Don't say you're from the Tieu family when you go out!" I swallowed. Luckily I'm not her younger brother. It seemed like she forgot that she was originally going to scold her for the two hundred thousand thing, but saying that wasn't wrong - who said that when it comes to close friends, the standards are always different. "Du Dao, what do you want to eat? I remember you love Sichuan food the most. I know a place..." In Tieu Tri An's gloomy eyes, Tieu Lam took my hand and left, and I... was about to step into a life that was flying like a kite in the wind.
