Chapter 1157 - 1159
Wan Yihui was in such a good mood today, he was about to see his mother whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.
The most important thing was that he was going to fly to see his mom, and also because he was going to the United States.
"The United States, huh? I really can’t wait to go." Wan Yihui said, full of anticipation.
Gong Ruzhi was also full of anticipation ever since he got his visa; he was eagerly looking forward to the trip.
Don’t be fooled by his earlier confidence, but now he’s suddenly going abroad to an English-speaking country, and he’s quite panicked.
"Sis, um, um." At home, Gong Ruzhi may act tough, but he was really just a kid.
"What’s up?" Gong Ruini herself felt a bit uneasy, but she had to stay strong in front of her younger siblings.
She grabbed Gong Ruzhi’s hand, hoping to ease his fear, but she forgot her hand was unusually cold.
Gong Ruzhi was startled by Gong Ruini’s cold hand; he hadn’t expected his sister’s hand to be so cold.
He looked up at her in surprise, noticing she was sweating a lot.
It seemed his sister was also worried, which suddenly gave Gong Ruzhi a sense of security; if even his sister was afraid, wasn’t it perfectly normal for him to feel all sorts of worries?
Seeing Wan Yihui’s excited face gave Gong Ruzhi courage; although his sister was quite capable, she was still just a girl,
"Sis, I’ll protect you," Gong Ruzhi said with determination to Gong Ruini.
What? Protect her? What’s going on here? Gong Ruini was dumbfounded; she really didn’t understand why Gong Ruzhi, this little kid, would say such a thing.
"Really?" The surprised look from his sister made Gong Ruzhi feel hurt; was he really that unreliable?
"I’m someone who knows martial arts too," Gong Ruzhi couldn’t help but question, wondering if his previous performance had made Brother Xu Ran doubtful of him.
Hmph, to not point out his shortcomings to his face but to say behind his back how unreliable he was in front of his sister, that person was really bad.
"Yes, yes, Xiao Zhi’s martial arts are good; sis is truly touched." Her little brother was a bit proud, and at this moment, she must comfort him properly.
Touched? Gong Ruzhi didn’t think his sister was genuinely touched; in his view, his sister still didn’t trust him.
"Sis always thought I would take care of you; never expected that the chubby little kid has grown up so much to protect sis."
Even though many said how capable Gong Ruzhi was and that he would be an extraordinary talent one day, Gong Ruini never really took it seriously.
Given his family’s current status, weren’t those saying such things just trying to cozy up a bit? Those with higher status didn’t really want to interact with his family.
Either they ignored them all the time or talked behind their backs with sour comments.
Gong Ruini simply ignored these people; after all, she didn’t depend on them to live, so why care about what they thought?
"Well, in the future, sis must rely on you and brother to protect me." Her younger brother growing up early was a good thing; having a strong family was much better than her own career development.
Sis regards him and his brother as adults, which moved Gong Ruzhi; it’s like putting him on par with adults.
"Don’t you have Brother Xu Ran?" Hmph, didn’t his sister put Brother Xu Ran in a higher position than them?
Oh, was he jealous of Zhao Xuran? Gong Ruini couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "You’re different from Brother Xu Ran."
Hah, what did she mean by that? Was she saying they were inferior to Brother Xu Ran? Gong Ruzhi looked up at Gong Ruini, seeking an answer.
Not knowing what the answer would be, would it upset them and make him unhappy?
Gong Ruzhi suddenly reached out to cover Gong Ruini’s mouth, "Don’t say it."
If his sister said something that undermined their confidence, what would he do, and what if it bothered his big brother? His big brother wasn’t easy.
Was it not wanting to hear unflattering words? Gong Ruini shook her head while removing his hand, "Of course you are different; you are my leverage."
Leverage? No way, wasn’t it supposed to be Brother Xu Ran as the leverage? How was his sister saying he, or rather they, were the leverage? Was she putting their status on par with Brother Xu Ran?
Gong Ruzhi was so excited; if it weren’t for being in the airport, he really wanted to run three laps.
Though he couldn’t run, he could let everyone know one thing: his sister said those words.
"Mom, Sis said my brother and I are her leverage."
"Dad, did you know? Sis just said my brother and I are her leverage."
One person after another was told, without thinking about the limited space where everyone was gathered. Was there really a need to tell everyone one by one?
Moreover, no matter how capable Zhao Xuran was, Gong Ruwen and Gong Ruzhi were indeed Gong Ruini’s leverage; that was indeed true.
"You’re really dumb to death." Gong Jiaming unhappily patted the head of his silly younger brother.
Clearly a smart person, but when it comes to certain things, he’s irrationally obtuse.
Gong Jiaming recalled some rumors about Gong Ruzhi; he really wanted to pull his brother aside and discuss if he was pretending to be silly or truly ignorant.
But seeing his clueless face, it seemed he genuinely didn’t know why those girls surrounded him.
Forget it, hasn’t it been said that no one is perfect; there will always be shortcomings somewhere.
"I’m also Ni Zi’s leverage, and you are Sister Xiao Xin’s leverage too." Yes, it’s important to become strong.
That way, no matter how impressive the brother-in-law or sister’s husband is, if they wrong their sisters, they must be confronted without discussion.
Hah, what did he mean by this? Gong Ruzhi was dumbfounded, wondering why his silly brother, who was clearly less intelligent than him, understood something he didn’t.
Gong Jiaming didn’t want to clarify; no way the kid always felt he was all sorts of amazing, although he would offer some guidance here and there, but his arrogance could really frustrate people.
Gong Jiaming seized the opportunity to give Gong Ruzhi a good teasing, and finally explained what ’leverage’ meant.
Gong Ruzhi let out an "Oh," "My sis is already a leverage."
"Sis said only when she’s strong herself, she won’t have to fear anything."
Uh, Gong Jiaming had indeed heard Gong Ruini mention that, "Ni Zi can be strong alone, but wouldn’t it be more interesting if she could be stronger?"
"Plus, you don’t want to hear people say that you only rely on luck, your mom and dad’s wealth, your sister’s capabilities, and your brother-in-law’s impressiveness?" Gong Ruming had heard quite a lot of such remarks.
Fortunately, after coming to Beijing, he hadn’t heard those words; this was because his family didn’t have a big business presence there, and it also implied they weren’t the type of character who caught much attention.
Hmph, those people’s snide comments, Gong Ruzhi wouldn’t listen, "Let them be jealous."
"I know they’ll be jealous, and I won’t care about what they say."
"Brother Jia Ming, if someone says that to you, you should say, yes, I’m fortunate to have my parents."
"Birth is a skill, after all." Gong Ruzhi expressed that he was indeed lucky, letting those people fume, let’s see what they do.
