Chapter 22 I'll acknowledge you as my elder brother
As Qin Zhao tilted her head back to relax, she happened to meet Fang Tian's somewhat resentful gaze. She touched her nose and pretended not to see it, continuing to listen to Jiang Man share her daily life with her CP, nodding and smiling occasionally in agreement.

This tactic was quite effective; Jiang Man's affection for Qin Zhao skyrocketed. It had been a long time since she had met such a kindred spirit.

When school was over, Qin Zhao got into the car very early to avoid Lin Shi accusing her of deliberately dawdling and making people wait.

Shen Yanci came with Lin Shi.

Qin Zhao didn't know if he had been so poor that he had become ill from poverty.

Ever since Shen Yanci deposited 10,000 yuan into her meal card, she has seen him radiate a holy glow.

"Uncle Li, let's go."

The car door closed, and Lin Shi reclined the car seat and lay down, looking nonchalant.

Qin Zhao glanced at Lin Shi, who was spread out like a pancake, and sighed almost imperceptibly.

Why isn't Shen Yanci her brother?
That way, I can rightfully take his money.

Lin Shi glanced at her sideways, his tone unfriendly: "What's the meaning of you looking at me with a frown and a sigh?"

Qin Zhao closed his eyes briefly, switching to a blank expression: "You're too handsome, I feel a little inferior."

Lin Shi paused for a moment, then grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth.

He cleared his throat, adjusted the car seat to a position that perfectly showcased his jawline, and glanced at Qin Zhao with a pleased expression: "Sigh, what can I do? Good looks are a gift."

"..."

"It's my first child, so I got all the best genes from my parents." He couldn't control his expression at all; it wasn't just smug satisfaction, it was blatant elation.

As he spoke, he patted Qin Zhao's shoulder earnestly, but she dodged it. He wasn't angry, though: "Losing to your brother is nothing to be ashamed of. If you're even a fraction like me, you're already an absolute beauty."

Uncle Li was used to it, and the joke made the wrinkles on his face even more obvious.

If Lin Shi had a tail, it would be soaring to the sky.

Qin Zhao's lips twitched, and he felt more and more that Qin Qiong was right. Lin Shi was a very easy person to get along with, as long as you were willing to praise him.

He must have been a horse in his past life, otherwise he would enjoy being flattered so much in this life.

Qin Qiong brought back many gifts this time: souvenirs from Haicheng, all kinds of clothes, and an electronic watch.

She already had enough clothes, but Qin Qiong still liked to dress her up and liked her more and more the more he looked at her.

"Try this jacket too." Qin Qiong took out another white Chanel-style jacket.

His mother is treating Qin Zhao like a miracle worker.

Lin Shi glanced at Qin Zhao sympathetically, and was about to slip away when he heard his mother comforting him: "Xiao Shi, you should try it too."

"..."

Qin Zhao hadn't expected trying on clothes to be so tiring; it took over an hour, but Qin Qiong remained enthusiastic.

"His hair seems to have grown longer," Qin Qiong said to himself, stroking Qin Zhao's hair.

"I'll get it cut tomorrow," Qin Zhao subconsciously agreed.

"No!" Qin Qiong immediately stopped her, then smiled, realizing her voice was a little urgent.

Grandma Jiang used to cut Qin Zhao's hair, but later he cut it himself to save money.

But it doesn't look very aesthetically pleasing.

"If your hair doesn't bother you, how about Mom takes you to get it cut when it grows a little longer?"

Qin Qiong had already considered several popular short hairstyles. Apart from being too thin and having slightly yellow skin, her Zhao Zhao's facial features and face shape were very striking.

Once she gets a new hairstyle, her natural beauty will definitely be restored.

Qin Zhao himself didn't care about his hairstyle, but seeing Qin Qiong's hopeful look, he nodded.

Qin Qiong was overjoyed to see her agree, and then took out an electronic watch and a mechanical watch.

She handed the mechanical watch to Lin Shi and the digital watch to Qin Zhao.

“My brother likes mechanical watches, so this is his. The digital watch can measure heart rate and blood oxygen, and it can also be used as a mobile phone to send location information. It's Zhaozhao's, so Mom won't have to worry about not being able to find Zhaozhao anymore.”

Qin Zhao's eyes welled up with tears, and his heart pounded heavily.

She opened her mouth and said, "Thank you, Mom."

Qin Qiong's eyes also welled up with tears.

The atmosphere turned sentimental, and Lin Shi felt awkward. He exclaimed, "Mom, when are we going to eat? I'm starving!" The sentimental atmosphere vanished instantly, and Qin Qiong laughed in exasperation, "All you ever think about is food. Let's eat now."

Qin Zhao really liked the electronic watch that Qin Qiong had given him; he thought it was amazing.

Her heart rate is 56-58.

She studied its functions for quite a while.

I wear it even when I sleep.

As she turned off her phone, she remembered the 10,000 yuan that Shen Yanci had topped up for her and clicked her tongue.

Isn't she being too greedy?

Qin Qiong clearly didn't lack anything from her, so why did she take Shen Yanci's money?
After hesitating for a while, she sent a WeChat message to Shen Yanci.

"I don't think it's right for me to accept your payment for my meal card for no reason."

Shen Yanci hadn't expected her to text him in the middle of the night about this. He typed, "You want to give it back to me?"

Just as I finished typing, a new message caught my eye.

"I can acknowledge you as my elder brother."

"..."

Qin Zhao felt that it was perfectly reasonable for an older brother to give money to his younger brother, and besides, her younger brother was definitely very useful and much more reliable than Lin Shi.

This little swindler is quite shrewd.

Shen Yanci: "I am not involved in organized crime."

Qin Zhao's eyelids twitched when she saw his reply; that wasn't what she meant at all.

"What I mean is, I respect you like an older brother. And I'm very useful; I can run errands for you, do your homework (crossed out), show off (crossed out), take the blame, and boost your morale..."

Shen Yanci: "It works very well?"

Zhao Zhao: "That's right."

Qin Zhao was getting sleepy, and after waiting for a while, he almost thought that Shen Yanci would disagree, when suddenly 10000 was transferred over from the other side.

Her mind cleared instantly, and she even struggled to type: "What is this?"

"This is a gift from your older brother."

"..."

Are all rich people this capricious?

Qin Zhao was torn between his inner turmoil and his own thoughts. He let out a long sigh, buried his head in the pillow, and helplessly pounded the bed.

Are you testing your underling with this?
She really wanted to accept it!

Why can't WeChat automatically receive payments?
During the three minutes she was agonizing over it, another message popped up: "Not enough?"

Qin Zhao took several deep breaths before he could suppress the urge to accept the payment.

Why isn't Shen Yanci her biological brother?!
He explodes with gold coins at the drop of a hat! This guy's even closer than a real brother.

She typed: "No, I didn't recognize you as my older brother because of your money. I was attracted by your personal charm. I can't believe there is such a perfect man in the world."

“You’re not just my older brother, you’re my biological brother.”

Wear it a thousand times, but flattery never wears it.

Shen Yanci's lips curled slightly, his voice low and magnetic: "Call me 'brother' and let me hear it."

He sent a voice message, which Qin Zhao immediately transcribed into text.

He thought to himself that this small request would be no problem for her.

She cleared her throat, lowered her voice, and called out in a superb, high-pitched voice, "Brother—Brother—"

"..."
