Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 895 - 897: Is This Really a Workaholic?

My workaholic brother actually didn’t work today and took Gong Ruini out, which left Zhao Guangran stunned.

"My brother actually went out?"

"Yes." Gong Ruwen couldn’t understand why Zhao Xuran going out once would make Zhao Guangran so excited.

"He went to see the maple leaves, took Ni Zi with him." My goodness, Zhao Guangran was still feeling dizzy, "I feel like the sun came up from the west today."

Gong Ruwen stayed silent, is that how you as a younger brother should talk about your brother?

"And Ni Zi, that busy bee, actually went out too, what a surprise." Zhao Guangran really couldn’t understand how two workaholics suddenly chose not to work.

Gong Ruini and Zhao Xuran really were in a good mood, enjoying beautiful scenery, then having a decent farm meal, and even went to see a movie afterwards.

If it wasn’t for having dinner together, they would have stayed out to eat.

They were met with Zhao Guangran’s various surprise on their return.

Gong Ruini really didn’t get it, they just went out on a date, was there a need to get so excited?

Chu Ling saw Gong Ruini purse her lips and knew she was displeased with Zhao Guangran.

"Why is it strange that they went out?" Chu Ling mercilessly set a trap for Zhao Guangran.

Actually, it wasn’t much of a trap; he had already kicked himself into the hole, digging deeper wouldn’t hurt.

"Of course it’s strange. My brother confessed to Ni Zi, they should be out and about, but look at them, did they go out?"

"I’m not saying my brother is stingy, but he won’t take Ni Zi to the movies. Even if they go for a meal, he expects me to pay."

Thinking about it, Zhao Guangran felt terribly wronged that his brother would chase a girl thinking his brother should foot the bill, you’d hardly see anyone so stingy.

"Just stingy." he emphasized.

Chu Ling never expected Zhao Guangran to be so cooperative, probably not thinking he’d dig deep enough, even brought an iron shovel with him.

Gong Ruwen covered his mouth laughing, unable to hold back.

Not sure what Ni Zi thought, but surely Zhao Xuran wasn’t happy, who would like being called stingy?

No, something wasn’t right, or else Gong Ruwen wouldn’t be laughing like that.

Was it Big Brother coming back? Like a startled animal, he turned to look and saw Big Brother smiling at him with warmth.

Should run, can’t let Big Brother catch sight of him, or he won’t fare well, but Zhao Guangran didn’t dare run, knowing the consequences would be dire.

Oh, better admit fault directly, "Brother, I really didn’t say it on purpose, but I’m not wrong."

Anyway, he was speaking the truth, "Ni Zi, I’m standing up for you."

"You see my brother is really busy with his work, not even willing to take you out on weekends." Zhao Guangran wasn’t expecting Big Brother to let him off the hook, just hoping Ni Zi would have grievances against him.

If Gong Ruini got upset, Big Brother wouldn’t have time to bother him with talk, being too busy communicating with Gong Ruini.

"There’s no way, Brother Xuran." Gong Ruini wore a feeling aggrieved yet helpless expression,

Promising; Zhao Guangran was only worried if Gong Ruini looked at him without saying a word, that was what troubled him most.

Now Gong Ruini had spoken up, Zhao Guangran felt he was not far from salvation.

"There is a way, Ni Zi, I’m telling you, you must make demands, otherwise my brother will only focus on work." Zhao Guangran kept trying to brainwash Gong Ruini.

Chu Ling laughed, "I think someone will end up very unlucky."

Though Zhao Guangran’s strategy seemed promising, Gong Ruini wasn’t one to be easily swayed; not at all easy, indeed.

"Someone surely thinks they’ll succeed." Gong Ruwen stayed to see how someone would meet their demise.

Chu Ling kept shaking his head, was there for the show too.

Zhao Xuran initially wanted to watch Zhao Guangran keep dancing around; otherwise, the game would end too early, it would lack fun.

Didn’t expect him to spread "bad" talk, pushing Ni Zi, how could Zhao Xuran put up with that.

"Of course there’re solutions, just look at how Guangran helps." he queried.

Oh, help? Zhao Guangran knew his brother would speak up; otherwise, what if Ni Zi got tricked by him?

Unexpectedly, as soon as his brother spoke, it was with that line, "Brother, speak up, I’ll definitely help."

Zhao Guangran was secretly pleased, seeing everyone wanting to see his jokes, not realizing his jokes weren’t that funny.

"Definitely help, I always knew you’re the best." Zhao Xuran patting Zhao Guangran’s shoulder, full of you proudly being my good brother expression.

That excitement from Zhao Guangran, you see, Big Brother has acknowledged him as a good brother.

"I’m planning to communicate well with Ni Zi."

"Every weekend we’ll be going out from now on."

Was Big Brother planning to take them along too? Yes, Zhao Guangran considered though he wasn’t as capable as his brother, he made up for it by taking Cao Na to many places.

"Don’t worry, Brother, I’ll take you out every week, I know where to have fun in Beijing."

"Brother, you should know your brother took Cao Na to quite a few places in Beijing." At that moment, he must impress.

Wow, took Cao Na to many places, this didn’t sit well with Zhao Xuran, having a girlfriend, how come there’s such a gap?

Can’t do; Zhao Xuran was filled with crisis, couldn’t let Ni Zi be unhappy.

Initially, he felt bad about rousing Zhao Guangran this way.

But now he didn’t feel that at all, "No, we’ll go out ourselves."

"Your task is to complete my delegated assignments weekly, and I’ll check when I get back in the evening."

"It’s not okay to do carelessly."

Oh no, Zhao Guangran stunned, Big Brother wouldn’t even take him along, that meant no free rides, yet why assign such a crucial task?

"Brother, I plan to go out with Nana on weekends."

"You’ve already been to quite a few places with Nana around Beijing, taking her busy occasionally is normal."

"We’ve only gone out once with Ni Zi."

"Guangran, don’t forget what you said before, you promised to help." Zhao Xuran fixedly stared at Zhao Guangran, leaving him no room to retract.

Ah, why did he ever blurt out those words so foolishly, hmp, everyone knows how to play, and they dug traps for him.

Oh well, seems there’s no avoiding taking over, better honestly finish up these tasks, avoiding Big Brother assigning even tougher missions that would make him cry.

"Alright, Brother, does finishing early mean I get to rest?" Zhao Guangran confirmed again.

"Yes."

Such a simple-minded guy, Gong Ruini still wouldn’t tell Zhao Guangran, tasks wouldn’t be done easily, impossible at home, truly.

With so much groundwork laid, truly too much to do, all hinges on if Zhao Xuran forgives, otherwise Zhao Guangran remains at rock bottom.
