Peaceful Farm Life-Chapter 1923 - 1924: If You’re Not Scared, Why Don’t You Challenge Her?

"A Qi, Ah Lin, A Zhi, do you really not know where Big Brother Qing has gone?"

Gong Le asked An Yiqi, An Yilin, and An Yizhi, who were over two months older than her, with an unhappy face.

An Yiqi grumpily said, "You’ve asked us this question eight hundred times today, Lele. I’m not saying you’re annoying, but you kind of are."

Gong Le immediately puffed her cheeks and glared at him angrily.

An Yiqi quickly raised his hand in surrender, "Okay, okay, my bad, I’m the annoying one, alright? But really, Lele, we have no idea where Third Brother went. We didn’t see him at breakfast, and from what his servants said, he seemed to have left early in the morning."

An Yizhi also said, "Third Brother never really tells us where he’s going. We truly don’t know."

An Yilin slowly wiped a Qingyu teacup with a cloth, and asked casually, "Lele, do you really like my Third Brother that much?"

Gong Le immediately nodded vigorously, "Mm! I really like Brother Qing! I’ve liked him the most since I was little!"

Hearing this, An Yiqi couldn’t help but retort, "I feel sorry for your parents. Out of everyone, you like my Third Brother the most since you were little. I really don’t get it; what’s so great about my Third Brother that you like him so much?"

Gong Le instantly got angry again, placing her hands on her hips, "Don’t speak ill of Brother Qing. Otherwise, even though we grew up together, I’ll still hit you!"

An Yiqi thought to himself, "Can you really beat me?" But on the surface, he quickly smiled placatingly, "Alright, alright, I won’t say it, I won’t. Don’t be mad."

An Yilin and An Yizhi both gave An Yiqi a disdainful side-eye.

An Yiqi immediately returned the look, clearly conveying: "If you’re not scared, then you deal with her? She’ll drive you nuts!"

Gong Le might not be strong in a fight, but she’s incredibly persistent.

Hearing this, An Yilin and An Yizhi turned away their gaze and stopped looking down on An Yiqi, their fifth brother. Gong Le can really drive a person crazy.

Since childhood, they have always felt a bit sorry for their Third Brother.

An Yilin only poured tea into the Qingyu teacup after wiping it to his satisfaction.

After taking a sip of tea and seeing Gong Le still looking particularly unhappy, he finally smiled slowly, "Lele, don’t be so upset. I have an idea to make sure Third Brother takes you wherever he goes, so you won’t have to look for him anymore."

Gong Le’s eyes brightened immediately, "What idea?"

An Yilin slowly took another sip of tea before speaking, "You could make yourself sick and say it’s Third Brother’s fault, so he’d promise to take you with him wherever he goes. Third Brother is always tough on the outside but soft on the inside. As long as you get sick because of him, he’ll agree to whatever you ask."

"That’s a great idea!" Gong Le was very happy. Then, she frowned, quite troubled, "But how do I make myself sick? I’ve rarely been sick since I was little."

An Yizhi immediately joined in, offering a bad idea, "Looks like it’s about to rain. Just get wet in the rain, and you’ll probably get sick."

Thinking that, although they felt sorry for their Third Brother, it was better for Gong Le to bother him than them, An Yiqi chimed in, agreeing, "Seventh Brother’s right, Lele, you should get wet in the rain."

Just as An Yiqi finished speaking, a loud thunderclap boomed in the sky, followed by pouring rain.

An Yiqi, An Yilin, and An Yizhi were all taken aback—did the rain really have to come this quickly...
