Chapter 1836 Twins
Long Ze touched his head and said nothing more.
His eyes, however, couldn't help but steal glances at Ruan Yu.
Long Mingyu noticed his grandson's behavior, his eyebrows furrowed, his expression hardened, and he was on the verge of anger.
"Long Ze, this is your sister Yu'er."
"Hello, Sister Yu'er." Upon hearing Ruan Yu's name, Long Ze's heart nearly leaped out of his mouth.
He had a silly grin on his face.
Ruan Yu pursed her lips, and when asked to call him "brother," she simply couldn't bring herself to do it.
Long Ze thought he had misunderstood Ruan Yu and that's why she didn't like him, so he immediately panicked: "Sister Yu'er, I..."
“I’ll just call you by your name, Long Ze,” Ruan Yu said.
"Huh? Oh, okay." Long Ze felt lightheaded as Ruan Yu called his name.
His reaction was so strong that even the disciples behind him noticed.
The only female disciple tugged at Long Ze's sleeve, clearly jealous: "Long Ze, watch out, your grandpa might beat you up."
Long Ze suddenly snapped out of his daze, put on a stern face, and pretended to be serious.
No! He can't be beaten again! If Yu'er sees him getting beaten up like this, she'll definitely like him less.
"Aren't you going back to the academy?" Long Mingyu glared at Long Ze.
Now that he has Ruan Yu as his beloved grandson, he finds everything about Long Ze displeasing.
"Master, I've finished my academy mission, and now I can take a break. I came back specifically to see you. This time I won't go out, and I'll stay home and spend more time with you." As he said this, Long Ze's eyes couldn't help but drift towards Ruan Yu.
How could Long Mingyu not see through Long Ze's thoughts?
However, he couldn't lash out because there were other people around.
"You guys go ahead, I'm going home with my grandpa and little sister Yu'er!" Long Ze said with a silly grin, bidding farewell to the disciples of the Ancient Dao Academy.
"Long Ze..." After the three left, the female disciple was still calling out Long Ze's name.
The two male disciples beside her sighed: "Duoduo, when are you going to confess your feelings to Long Ze?"
A blush crept onto Duoduo's face, and she bit her lip shyly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I... I don't have those kinds of feelings for him at all."
"We're brothers who've been through thick and thin together. Do you think you can hide what you're thinking from me?"
"Long Ze's eyes were practically drooling over that woman. If you don't strike first, you'll regret it later!"
Thinking of Ruan Yu, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Duo Duo's face: "Isn't she Long Ze's sister?"
"We know perfectly well whether Longze has a younger sister or not."
"I bet it's Old Master Long who took a liking to Long Ze and brought him back as his wife! Do you want to see that happen?"
To be Longze's wife?
No!
Duoduo shook her head vigorously, "I don't want to."
Longze can only be hers!
She made up her mind: "Okay, I'll tell him how I feel when we meet next time."
At that time, Long Ze, who had returned to the Long residence, was unaware that he was being watched. Long Mingyu sent his trusted aides to arrange accommodations for Ruan Yu, while Long Ze kept pestering Long Mingyu with questions.
"Grandpa, which of my sisters is Yu'er?"
"How come I've never seen him before?" He's so beautiful, if I had seen him before, I couldn't possibly have no recollection of him.
"She's your own sister, born of the same father and mother. You'd better keep your little schemes to yourself!" Long Mingyu glanced at his good-for-nothing eldest grandson and turned away in anger.
Long Ze froze on the spot: "What!!"
A half-sister? He remembers his parents only having him! When did he get a sister? Was she born while he was at the academy?
But it can't have grown this big all of a sudden!
Besides... if Ruan Yu is his sister, then wouldn't he be unable to...?
what! !
Long Ze scratched his head in frustration, then knelt at Long Mingyu's feet like a drama queen, grabbing his leg and wailing, "Master, this isn't real! Tell me this isn't real! How could Yu'er be my own sister?"
"It's true." Seeing his expression, Long Mingyu felt much better.
"You must protect her with all your might, understand?"
"Even if it costs you your life, I will not hesitate."
Long Ze was deeply shocked and incredulous: "...Grandpa, am I not your beloved grandson?"
He can understand protecting his sister, but asking him to risk his life to do so is ridiculous. Doesn't his life matter?
“You are my precious grandson, so you must protect your sister even more.” Long Mingyu said earnestly, “You will understand my intentions in doing this later.”
Long Ze got up from the ground, dusted off his knees, and said lazily, "I know, sir."
He always listened to Long Mingyu. Although he didn't understand, he would do as Long Mingyu said.
Afterwards, Long Ze went to see the head of the Long family and his wife.
"Father, Mother, when did you have a little sister behind my back?"
The head of the Long family and his wife were discussing matters in the front hall when they heard this. The head of the Long family was so frightened that he dropped his teacup and spilled it all over himself.
"Who told you that?" Madam Long wondered, but she didn't show it on her face.
She had a daughter? How come she didn't know?
Long Ze was simple-minded and didn't notice anything amiss: "That's what Master said."
After he revealed everything he knew, the shrewd head of the Long family and his wife exchanged a glance and then said cooperatively, "It seems that this matter can no longer be kept secret."
"Could it be... really true?!" Long Ze felt like the sky had fallen.
Madam Long nodded deeply: "Yes, your sister... is your twin. However, she was born weak, so she was taken elsewhere to be cared for. After many years, her health has finally improved, and that's why she was brought back from outside."
The head of the Long family also said, "You are the older brother, and you must shoulder the responsibility of protecting your younger sister, do you understand?"
"I will!" Long Ze clenched his fist tightly, never expecting that his little sister Yu'er had suffered so much since childhood.
No wonder Grandpa told him to protect her even at the cost of his life.
He was unwilling at first, but now that I think about it, he deserves to die!
His sister is already having such a hard time, and he, as her older brother, has never fulfilled his responsibilities as an older brother for even a single day, and he's even jealous of her.
Waaaaah, he's not human!
"Father, Mother, I'm going to find my sister." All Long Ze wanted to do now was to pamper Ruan Yu.
After saying that, he disappeared like a gust of wind.
The head of the Long family peeked outside, and after confirming that the person had really left, he walked to Madam Long's side and asked in a low voice, "Why did Father lie to Ze'er that he had a younger sister?"
"I don't know. Since it's Father's decision, we'll follow it." Madam Long shook her head.
"Speaking of which, we'll go see... Yu'er later too." The head of the Long family felt awkward calling her by that name for the first time.
Madam Long wholeheartedly agreed: "We should go see... Yu'er."
The two of them called out "Yu'er" hundreds of times, one after the other, until they finally got it right.
