48: Chapter 48 Piracy, are you kidding me?!
"Lian Lian, don't move. Let me take a good look."
When Jiang Qin and Tang Xiaotang rushed over after dealing with the Remnant Beastss, what they saw was this suggestive scene.
Fang Xun was pulling at Qi Lian's top from behind, intently peering inside.
"Brother, is it nice to look at?" Jiang Qin asked expressionlessly.
"It's nice, very convenient," Fang Xun replied affirmatively while looking.
"..."
When Fang Xun finished speaking and looked up, he finally saw the Magical Girl Sakura and her excellent partner, Young Miss Tomoyo, standing together.
"Pervert."
Jiang Qin uttered the word without hesitation.
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm really not!" Fang Xun quickly defended himself, "It's just that Lian Lian was injured, so I was helping her look."
"Lian Lian?" Jiang Qin seized on the key word. He was calling her Lian Lian now?
He had never been that intimate when calling her name.
"Yes, Lian Lian was hit by the willow branches," Fang Xun didn't notice the change in Jiang Qin's expression and continued, "It was hit until it turned red."
Saying this, Fang Xun grabbed Qi Lian's arm and made her turn around, showing her back to the group.
At this sight, the girls immediately became anxious. They forgot about Fang Xun's improper behavior just now.
"Lian Lian, what happened? How did you get such a serious injury?" Tang Xiaotang instantly ran over and started examining Qi Lian closely.
Jiang Qin also walked over. Besides looking at Qi Lian, she also lifted Fang Xun's blanket to take a look.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Qin's brow immediately furrowed.
A trace of emerald light flashed in her eyes, and her expression slowly relaxed.
"Brother, what's going on between you and Qi Lian?"
"That requires telling you about my heroic deeds," Fang Xun immediately became animated, "Your brother here punched and blew up the Disaster Beast we encountered, and even saved Lian Lian."
Jiang Qin listened to Fang Xun's words, squeezed Fang Xun's unharmed hand hard, and then looked towards Qi Lian.
"Brother is right," Qi Lian said seriously.
"Lian Lian, you weren't brainwashed by Brother, were you!" Tang Xiaotang was instantly shocked by this.
"Brother is very strong, Brother can turn into Superman," Qi Lian remained serious.
"It's over, it's over. Lian Lian, you must have been brainwashed by Brother," Tang Xiaotang shook her head repeatedly, looking utterly incredulous.
At this moment, the enforcement footage from the Special Warfare Team Members finally arrived on Jiang Qin's and Tang Xiaotang's communicators.
Both of them saw the heavily injured Fang Xun being carried out in a bridal style by Qi Lian.
Looking at this scene, Jiang Qin couldn't help but look at Fang Xun again. She had never carried her brother like that before.
"Brother, why did you go to that park?"
"Didn't I see you going to fight Disaster Beast, so I wanted to go help out," Fang Xun chuckled sheepishly.
"And then you got carried princess-style by our Lian Lian," Tang Xiaotang teased, "Brother, looking at your body, you don't seem injured at all. Luckily, a Senior went over and smashed that Disaster Beast to death with one punch."
"It was also lucky that you, Brother, weren't too close. If you were too close, no living thing could survive in that area."
"You just don't believe me!" Fang Xun let out a harsh sound.
He had already hinted at it, but no one believed he was that Senior.
He had considered taking off his mask after the fight and announcing it to the world directly.
But it always felt a bit too undignified, as if he were eagerly trying to make people know.
Fang Xun now wanted to keep a big secret. The more these little ones didn't believe him now, the more shocked they would be when they found out!
"You'll know when the time comes!" Fang Xun shouted.
"Okay, okay, okay~~~ Brother, we'll know when the time comes," Tang Xiaotang drew out her voice, clearly being very perfunctory.
"Brother," Jiang Qin, however, squeezed Fang Xun's hand heavily, "Don't follow me anymore in the future, or I'll sever ties with you."
"You'd sever ties over this!?" Fang Xun was shocked.
"Sever!" Jiang Qin said decisively.
"...Fine... if you say so, I won't follow you then."
After understanding the situation slightly, the two girls also reprimanded Qi Lian.
This included, but was not limited to: Brother is so cringey, don't listen to him in the future. Brother's brain has problems, you can't follow suit. Brother is stupid, are you stupid too?
And so on and so forth. They didn't hold back at all, even with Fang Xun, the subject of the reprimand, standing right beside them.
After Fang Xun finished hanging up an IV bag, he grabbed the rat and got off the bed.
It was only then that Tang Xiaotang noticed the rat and almost screamed. She calmed down when she realized it was the Flower Branch Rat they had bought earlier.
As for everyone else, they weren't surprised that Fang Xun could get out of bed.
Except for Qi Lian, none of them had seen Fang Xun's previous injuries, assuming his injuries were mostly just scrapes.
From a feeling perspective, Qi Lian's injuries might even have been a bit worse.
As for Qi Lian, well, there was no need to elaborate.
"Right, where is Shen Yue?" Fang Xun looked at the few girls, remembering the one who was taken away for photos.
"The comic convention hasn't completely ended yet," Tang Xiaotang looked at the news on her phone.
After messaging Shen Yue earlier, Shen Yue had only replied with a bittersweet emoji.
It seemed she was quite enjoying being taken away for photos.
"When we go down later, we'll first change clothes for Brother and Lian Lian, and then we'll go look for Yue Yue,"
Tang Xiaotang arranged everything seamlessly without showing any signs.
It could only be said that her financial power was activated.
When the group left the City People's Hospital, they saw the RV parked in the hospital parking lot.
This showed the value of having an older brother on standby 24 hours a day.
This time, there wasn't a stylist waiting.
But the girls' clothes were still in the car. However, there was an extra set of men's clothes in the car.
Looking at the style of the clothes, it was actually Fang Xun's usual preferred style.
"Whoa?" Fang Xun looked at the clothes, looking quite surprised.
"These pants are the same length as the ones I'm wearing, but why does this fabric feel so much better?"
"Brother, take a guess?" Tang Xiaotang looked at Fang Xun, revealing a somewhat mischievous smile.
Fang Xun looked at Tang Xiaotang's expression and felt like this girl was plotting something bad.
But he really couldn't guess what it was, so he followed Tang Xiaotang's lead and tried to guess.
"Is it a new upgraded version?"
"Nope."
"A modified version?"
"Nope, how could a modified version be the same?"
"Then what is it?" Fang Xun was genuinely curious.
"Brother, put it on first, and I'll tell you after you change," Tang Xiaotang directly threw the pile of clothes into Fang Xun's arms and pushed him into the fitting room.
Fang Xun quickly changed into the new clothes in the fitting room.
The feeling was quite good; even the cut seemed slightly better than what he was wearing before, and the fabric was more than a notch better.
It felt extremely comfortable to wear.
When Fang Xun came out, the girls' eyes lit up.
Just by changing clothes, Fang Xun looked much more spirited and seemed much handsomer.
"So, what's the difference?" Fang Xun was still curious.
"It's the genuine article."
Fang Xun: "?"
This bratty sister was indeed up to no good! If she said that wasn't intentional mockery, even a dog wouldn't believe it!
Tang Xiaotang emphasized again:
"It's the genuine article, okay~"
