Chapter 40 -40: Girls Are All Troublesome

“…Sister?”

Lin Yi’s eyes widened even more, “Aren’t you only sister Qianrou? Did she have plastic surgery?”

He leaned over to look at Lu Sheng’s face, and mused earnestly, “Don’t say, the surgery is quite successful, much prettier than before.”

Lu Siyan spoke expressionlessly: “This is my dad’s illegitimate daughter, just arrived in Jiang City a few days ago, I bumped into her outside the convenience store just now.”

“So what happened to her, did she faint on the road?” Lin Yi asked curiously.

“You might not believe it,” Lu Siyan paused for a second, “she just fell asleep.”

“Hahahahaha, she fell asleep while walking? And just happened to bump into you?”

“But I must say, your new sister seems quite interesting, and good-looking too,” Lin Yi looked at Lu Siyan, “What are you planning to do now? Send her back to the Lu Family?”

Hearing this, Lu Siyan frowned.

He didn’t want to go back to the Lu Family at all, nor did he want to let a stranger into his apartment, but he couldn’t just leave his nominal sister on the roadside.

“Not going back to the Lu Family,” Lu Siyan said.

“Then to your apartment?” Lin Yi turned his head, starting the car and asked casually.

“To your place.”

The comment came from Lu Siyan in the back seat.

“Ha—?”

Lin Yi muttered upfront, “I owe you one, being woken up from sleep to act as your driver is one thing, but to take your sister to my place too.”

“But given how cute your sister is, I’ll reluctantly agree.”

Lu Siyan ranks second in the Lu Family and is twenty-three this year.

He returned from studying abroad last year and became a surgeon at the best central hospital in Jiang City.

Such a profession is rare among the heirs of affluent families.

After all, when one can easily inherit the family business, who would choose such a demanding job.

However, Lu Siyan is completely uninterested in the Lu family’s business and at the hospital, nobody knew he was the second young master of the Lu family.

He despised that so-called upper-class circle, whether it’s the obsequious flattering or pretentious opportunism, he found it all extremely hypocritical.

Or perhaps, due to his indifferent nature, he avoids social interactions and is not fond of money.

Since childhood, he hasn’t felt much for familial affection and holds no deep feelings for Jiang Ting and Lu Chengye.

So after returning to Jiang City, he bought an apartment to live alone, seldom returning to the Lu Family.

Among the siblings, he only occasionally contacts his elder brother, Lu Jingyan, and hardly interacts with Lu Ziye and Lu Youming; he is closest to Lu Youye.

It’s mainly because Lu Youye is lively by nature, not minding his cold and sharp-tongued demeanor, and would often visit his apartment.

As for his adopted sister, Qianrou, they aren’t even blood-related. Whenever he meets her, he just keeps it cordial and that’s about it.

No feelings, not particularly liking nor disliking.

Lu Sheng was the same.

Even though she shares half of his blood, for him, whether there is a blood relationship or whether she is an illegitimate daughter is not important.

Lu Sheng slept drowsily next to Lu Siyan.

The car jolted, and the girl’s body leaned to the right. Before she could touch the edge of her clothes, Lu Siyan held her up with a look of disdain on his face.

Then he directly tilted her body towards the car window, as if he really didn’t want to touch her at all.

Thirty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a standalone apartment.

It was already a bit dark outside.

Lu Siyan stepped out of the car first and said to Lin Yi, “Didn’t you say she’s cute, you carry her in.”

“Tch, I’ll carry her then.”

Lin Yi, clearly accustomed to Lu Siyan’s temperament, walked directly to the backseat and picked up Lu Sheng.

The girl was lighter than he expected.

Lin Yi couldn’t see clearly from the driver’s seat, but now looking carefully, he was somewhat stunned.

The girl’s sleeping face was so beautiful.

Although her eyes were closed and her face was a bit pale, her skin was as smooth as a peeled egg, and her long, curved eyelashes trembled with her breath.

It made him wonder if she would look even better with her eyes open.

“I’m telling you, you don’t know your blessings,” Lin Yi carried Lu Sheng inside while speaking to Lu Siyan ahead.

“Having a sister is great, unlike me who only has a brother, I don’t even know what having a sister feels like. I didn’t have a good impression of Qianrou, but I liked this sister as soon as I saw her.”

“You two probably haven’t even had a word with each other, right? When she wakes up, can you not be so standoffish and show her a bit of brotherly love?”

Lu Siyan bluntly refused: “Can’t.”

—Sister?

Girls are such a hassle, he really didn’t want to trouble himself.

When this Lu Sheng woke up, he’d just call her a taxi to send her back to the Lu Family, not abandoning her on the roadside already counted as fulfilling his duty as a brother.

Lin Yi carried Lu Sheng into the apartment and laid her on the sofa.

Lying on the sofa, the slender girl subconsciously curled up. It wasn’t clear if it was due to the cold or a lack of a sense of security.

Seeing this made Lin Yi feel a bit of heartache, so he ran to the guest room to get a blanket and considerately covered the girl.

As for Lu Siyan.

After he came into the apartment, he sat by the coffee table, picked up a medical journal he had left there last time, and started reading.

It was as if the girl had nothing to do with him, but was Lin Yi’s sister instead.

Lin Yi was used to his behavior and didn’t bother saying anything.

Soul Power within was being restored, and Lu Sheng slept incredibly deeply, so much so that Lin Yi wondered if she would sleep right into the next morning.

Waiting was boring, so he pulled Lu Siyan to play video games in front of the TV; however, while playing, his phone suddenly rang.

Lin Yi casually picked up the phone, his head tilted watching the game screen, sandwiching the phone between his shoulder and cheek, and asked, “Hello? What’s up, mom?”

However, after a few seconds, Lin Yi abruptly tossed the game console onto the carpet, anxiously saying, “What did you say? You said that Xiao Yan was nearly hit by a car?!”

Lu Siyan heard this and was also taken aback.

“Alright mom, I’m coming home now, wait for me there.”

Lin Yi hung up the phone, met Lu Siyan’s gaze, and quickly explained the situation.

He said that this afternoon his mom took Lin Yan out, and Lin Yan ran into the middle of the road to pick up a toy, nearly getting hit by a big truck; luckily a girl risked her life and suddenly rushed to save him.

But after saving Lin Yan, that girl just left without leaving a name, only knowing her last name was Lu. His mom wanted to find the lifesaver, so she told him to come home.

Both Lin Yi and Lu Siyan had never thought that the girl lying on the sofa downstairs also had the last name Lu; they did not connect the frail-looking girl with such a heroic deed.
