Transmigrated into the body of a prematurely deceased beloved child

Chapter 502 My Brother is a Cannon Fodder Subordinate 20

Zhao Zhao had no time to be angry with Ji Yunqi. After hanging up the phone, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went out, only to find Xie Zi'an squatting outside the door, half asleep.

He choked on his breath, his face turning pale and then red: "Thank you! Zi'an!"

Xie Zian was startled awake, looked up in surprise, and suddenly got up to hug Zhao Zhao: "Zhao Zhao, I forgot to take my keys, and my phone is dead."

He nuzzled Zhao Zhao's face with his fluffy head, his voice sounding aggrieved.

Zhao Zhao stood straight and motionless, coldly asking, "What's wrong with your face now?"

He pushed Xie Zi'an aside and dragged him from the dimly lit stairwell into the room. "Oh, another fight?"

Xie Zian has been fighting every day for the past few days, and he's probably gotten used to it. Zhao Zhao isn't as angry as before.

He skillfully took out the first-aid kit, applied medicine to his face, checked other areas, and slowly applied ointment.

The warm light shone on Zhao Zhao's face as she applied medicine, making her look gentle and beautiful. Xie Zian stared at her, feeling a warmth in his heart: "It's so good to have you, my dear brother."

Zhao Zhao ignored him, and Xie Zi'an guessed that she was angry again.

So he took the initiative to explain what happened to him today. Zhao Zhao had actually guessed that he had gone to fight with Duan Ruofang and the others, so she wasn't too surprised to hear his explanation.

He said, "This is your last chance. If you come home still covered in injuries next time, I'll switch to staying at a hotel."

Xie Zian felt a little nervous and quickly promised not to do it again.

Afterwards, Xie Zian and Zhao Zhao had dinner together, then Xie Zian grabbed his clothes and prepared to go to the hospital to see Ji Yunqi.

There was nothing he could do; his phone kept vibrating, and Ji Yunqi coerced him into going to the hospital.

Zhao Zhao frowned upon hearing this: "Why does he only torment you?"

Xie Zian said, "Maybe it's because I'm his number one underling." Now he can say this without batting an eye, which means he's resigned to his fate.

Zhao Zhao, protective of her brother, asked, "Doesn't your body hurt?"

Xie Zian said with a pained expression, "It hurts."

So Zhao Zhao forcefully pushed Xie Zi'an into the room and locked him inside: "You're not allowed to go out. You're going to rest today."

As he spoke, he took out his phone, ignoring the shouts from inside.

[I heard you had my brother come to take care of you despite his injuries?]

[Ji Yunqi: ?]

A little while later, he made a video call.

In the video, Ji Yunqi's forehead was still wrapped in gauze, and his slightly pale face could not hide his handsome features.

He still smiled casually, raising an eyebrow at Zhao Zhao, who was expressionless in the video: "Hello, little brother~"

Zhao Zhao frowned: "My brother is injured and can't come to take care of you."

Looking at the weak boy on the phone, she quietly added, "You can ask Xia Siyuan to take care of you."

"Xia Siyuan?" Ji Yunqi chuckled. "Then let's forget about it." Not every underling has the opportunity to take care of him.

"I like your brother, and of course, I like you too."

Zhao Zhao remained silent, while Ji Yunqi continued to tease, "What's wrong, little brother? Is your connection stuck?"

"No."

The house wasn't well soundproofed, and Xie Zi'an, who had been silently listening to their conversation from the next room, said protectively, "Brother Ji, Zhao Zhao doesn't joke around, don't tease him."

A muffled sound came from inside the room. Ji Yunqi scratched his ear and said, "Where are those mosquitoes coming from?"

Zhao Zhao: "You seem to be in good spirits, so my brother won't come over to take care of you. Goodbye."

He hung up the phone, walked to Xie Zian's door, and knocked: "The matter is resolved, you can get some rest."

On the other side of the door, Xie Zian exclaimed with starry eyes, "Zhao Zhao is so handsome!"

"That's amazing! They actually stood up for their brother!"

"grown up!"

Amidst the praise, Zhao Zhao drifted off into thought, opened the door, and said, "If he orders you around again, tell me."

As soon as the door opened, Xie Zian flew out and pounced on Zhao Zhao, his voice trembling with fear: "Okay, Zhao Zhao!"

"From now on, I'll rely on your protection!"

Zhao Zhao carefully avoided his injury, gently hugged him back, and a few seconds later pushed him away without hesitation, saying, "You'll come with me to the library for a part-time job after school tomorrow. We can't put it off any longer."

"Now, go wash up and go to bed."

Xie Zian stood at attention and saluted, looking quite childish: "Yes, sir."

This made Zhao Zhao laugh again.

Back in her room, Zhao Zhao calmed herself down and picked up her phone to check Shen Xinghe's messages.

[。：Do you have any study problems?] For the sake of 100,000 yuan, Zhao Zhao took the initiative to send him a message for the first time.

In the Shen family mansion, Shen Xinghe is being scolded.

On the sofa, Shen Chilin and Shen Chang'an sat upright on the left and right sides, their different faces, one old and one young, showing the same serious expression.
