Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 1009: Only He Can’t

It was after school again, Bai Yufeng came out of the classroom and found Qi Yin waiting for him.

"Not going home with Brother Zi Han today?" Ever since Zi Han arrived, he had taken over Bai Yufeng’s task of sending Qi Yin home. Bai Yufeng didn’t bother competing with Zi Han for attention and let the two of them be.

Qi Yin looked at Bai Yufeng and asked, "Do you have plans this afternoon?"

"What’s up?" From Qi Yin’s expression, he could tell she needed a favor.

"Brother Zi Han wants me to visit his place. Come with me!" Qi Yin pleaded.

"No!" Bai Yufeng refused without a second thought. He inexplicably wanted to avoid getting too involved with Zi Han.

"Brother Feng, how can you be so heartless? If you don’t come with me and I go alone, what if my dad gets mad at me again?"

"That’s none of my business," Bai Yufeng replied coldly.

Qi Yin looked at him pitifully, "Are we still friends? Can’t you consider my feelings at all?"

"..."

Seeing Qi Yin beg him like that, Bai Yufeng sighed. He could handle anything except Qi Yin’s pleading, so he had to agree.

Qi Yin beamed at him, "Brother Feng, you’re the best."

They soon reached the school gate where Zi Han was waiting for them.

Qi Yin, happy as a little bunny, ran towards Zi Han, "Brother Zi Han."

She had already told Zi Han about bringing Bai Yufeng to his house, and Zi Han had no objections.

Shortly after they started walking, someone who had been waiting suddenly came out, "Qi Yin."

"Zhou Luo, it’s you again?" Qi Yin frowned.

Zhou Luo glanced at Zi Han briefly. He had been keeping an eye on Qi Yin and naturally knew how close she had become with Zi Han recently. He couldn’t understand why a stranger could stay by Qi Yin’s side, but he couldn’t?

He looked at Qi Yin curiously, "Where are you guys going?"

"What’s it to you?" Qi Yin frowned.

"I want to go with you," Zhou Luo approached, wanting to join their group. He looked at Zi Han, "Hello, I’m Zhou Luo, you probably recognize me."

At school, Zhou Luo was quite famous.

After all, he was the son of Zhou Yixiu!

The Zhou Family originally lived in C City, and Lin Zhenyu also wanted Zhou Luo to study in C City, but Zhou Luo wanted to be with his friends, so he deliberately came here.

That’s how people are; the harder something is to get, the more they want it.

Zi Han looked at Zhou Luo without speaking, remembering the name, as they fought when they were younger.

Qi Yin asked, "Brother Zi Han, know him? Did you meet when you were kids?"

"Yes," Zi Han nodded.

That’s fate; some people in this world are unforgettable once you know them.

Qi Yin said, "So, would you like to be friends with him?"

Although Qi Yin disliked Zhou Luo, she respected Zi Han’s opinions; after all, she couldn’t make Zi Han dislike Zhou Luo just like her.

Zi Han shot a silent glance at Zhou Luo, making Zhou Luo feel guilty. He assumed Zi Han would refuse, but instead, Zi Han smiled, "Childhood matters don’t concern me anymore."

"Brother Zi Han, you’re such a good person," Qi Yin admired.

In her eyes, whatever Zi Han did was right.

If it were anyone else, they’d cling to childhood grudges, but Zi Han didn’t dwell on them.

That set him apart from others.

Hearing Zi Han’s response, Zhou Luo sighed in relief, "Then from now on, we’re friends. At school, if you need anything, feel free to ask me for help. I’ll treat you like my brother."

"Give it a rest," Qi Yin said disdainfully, "You have so many brothers who are like your followers. My Brother Zi Han won’t be your follower."

"Just friends, not followers," Zhou Luo laughed.

Earlier, he wanted to approach Qi Yin, but she ignored him. Now that he’s friends with Zi Han, he has more opportunities with her.

Bai Yufeng walked behind them, observing quietly.

Though he wasn’t fond of Zi Han, he couldn’t deny Zi Han’s cleverness.

He knew that if he held grudges for past events, he’d clash with Zhou Luo, becoming enemies.

Zi Han was unlike Qi Yin and Bai Yufeng.

With an ordinary background, he couldn’t contend with the Zhou Family. If Zhou Luo targeted him, he might even have to leave school. Thus, he pretended to let bygones be bygones.

This way, he lost an enemy while gaining a friend in Zhou Luo.

At school, Zhou Luo was always highly regarded.

Being the only child of Zhou Yixiu, many people were eager to ingratiate themselves with him.

They soon reached Zi Han’s home, which was a duplex apartment, not particularly wealthy nor poor. To ensure Zi Han’s well-being, Qi Cheng had chosen a decent household for him.

"Brother Zi Han, your house is beautiful," Qi Yin complimented as soon as she entered.

Sucking up to Zi Han seemed to be her only skill.

Zhou Luo stood aside and said, "Qi Yin, come to my house next time, okay?"

"Why?"

"My house is even more beautiful than this."

"..." Qi Yin rolled her eyes at Zhou Luo, remaining silent.

Bai Yufeng glanced at Zhou Luo.

That’s why Qi Yin never liked Zhou Luo; he was clueless about talking.

Always flaunting himself everywhere.

The Qi Family’s status wasn’t much worse than the Zhou’s. Qi Yin had seen beautiful houses; her compliment was solely due to Zi Han’s presence.

Zi Han wasn’t bothered in the slightest. Smiling, he said, "Have a seat. I’ll get some tea."

He soon brought the tea, serving it to everyone.

"You don’t have servants at home?" Zhou Luo asked, "You do these tasks yourself?"

Zi Han responded, "No, my mom handles housework, but when she’s away, I do it."

Zhou Luo was about to speak when Qi Yin interjected, "Brother Zi Han, you’re amazing. Much better than me; I can’t even tidy my room properly."

"Qi Yin, even if you do nothing, you’re already amazing," Zhou Luo praised from the side.

Qi Yin glanced at him. Somehow, Zhou Luo’s words killed her desire to speak.

The atmosphere turned silent for a moment, Zhou Luo seemed to have realized he misspoke.

Qi Yin turned to Zi Han and asked, "Is your mom not at home?"
