Zhao Yunjiao's face turned pale, and she almost couldn't maintain the smile on her lips.

"Brother...what are you talking about? How could I be afraid of you..."

"Brother thought you were hiding from me because you were afraid of me. That's good. I'll leave first."

Zhao Yunzhou turned around and the smile on his face faded.

Zhao Yunjiao finally breathed a sigh of relief after the others had left for a while. She didn't know why her brother had changed so much during this period of time. She was so scared.

But her parents are still out of town and haven’t come back yet. What should she do?

Zhao Yunjiao sighed and her face wrinkled.

She picked up her phone and the live broadcast was still going on. The girl was thanking the netizens in the live broadcast room.

When I clicked on the yellow cart below, the only product was displayed in gray, indicating that it was sold out.

Alas, I didn’t get it.

Even though she ate too much that day and threw up, she still wanted another scallion pancake two days later.

In the next few days, her brother went to and from get off work with her. When she finally found time to go there, she found out that he was no longer setting up a stall at the bus stop.

Just when Zhao Yunjiao thought she would never be able to eat scallion pancakes again, she saw the other party’s live broadcast and learned that she would be putting the products online that day.

As today was a day off, she naturally did not go to the company, but she still did not buy it.

She jumped up from the sofa, walked quickly to the kitchen, and hurried over when she saw her aunt.

"Auntie, did you buy that scallion pancake just now?"

"No, Second Miss, I haven't even clicked on it and it's out of stock. Why are so many people buying this cake?"

Zhao Yunjiao was full of disappointment. "Well, I thought at least one of us could buy it."

The aunt looked at her disappointed eyes and felt heartbroken.

She looked outside and saw that there were no people around, so she lowered her voice and said, "Second Miss, this scallion pancake is being sold at a stall over at Xizhou Square. I'll buy it for you at noon, cut it up and put it on a plate. The eldest young master shouldn't be able to see it."

Zhao Yunjiao's eyes lit up, but she quickly rejected her suggestion.

"No, that scallion pancake stand doesn't seem to be open at noon, and I can't let you do this kind of thing."

If my brother finds out, he will definitely fire my aunt.

She can't let this happen.

Auntie sighed, "Next time I'll go ask the stall owner if he has any more crusts and if I can buy some."

Zhao Yunjiao hugged her arm and said, "Auntie, thank you."

"Really? Zhao Yunzhou, you're out here playing and you're still looking at your phone? Who's on this phone?"

The staggering man walked over with a bottle of wine in his hand and tried to look at his screen, but the screen went dark the next second.

Zhao Yunzhou picked up the wine glass on the table and took a big gulp.

This is not a banquet at all. There is deafening music all around. The lights in the private room are dim, and swaying colored lights are projected onto the table.

Several men in the corner were hugging their female companions, not caring at all about the occasion, and were already entangled with each other. The air was filled with the smell of various alcoholic beverages and cigarettes.

A teasing voice came from the other side, "Don't you know Mr. Zhao? Mr. Zhao only has that precious sister in his heart."

"Hey, I remember that sister isn't my biological sister, right?"

As soon as he finished saying this, the glass smashed hard to the ground, fragments flew everywhere, and several girls screamed in fright. The man who said this just now looked embarrassed.

Someone immediately came out to ease the atmosphere, "Hey, Yunzhou, he just said it casually, just as a joke, you must not take it seriously."

Zhao Yunzhou's eyes were full of sinisterness: "Although Jiaojiao is not the biological daughter of the Zhao family, she is my sister."

Amid the awkward moment, the heavy door of the private room was pushed open.

A tall figure walked in and raised an eyebrow when he saw the debris on the ground, "What happened?"

His words broke the awkwardness of the moment, and someone immediately waved his hand: "Nothing! We were just joking! I'll find someone to clean it up! Have fun! Yunzhou, stop nitpicking what others say."

"I apologize to you on behalf of Xiao Cheng, and also to our sister!"

He patted Zhao Yunzhou on the shoulder and went out to find a waiter.

The tall figure walked over and sat down next to Zhao Yunzhou. "So it's about your sister again. She's pretty. How about letting her stay with me for one night?"

The man who had just eased the atmosphere had just returned to the private room and heard these words. He then quietly left.

The next second, Zhao Yunzhou jumped up and grabbed him by the collar, "What did you say? Say it again!"

The man still had that cynical smile on his face, and he patted his hands calmly, "Don't get excited, I know the Zhao family wants to invest in the project in the south of the city, but they are short of funds now, right?"

Zhao Yunzhou didn't know what he said at that time. When he opened his eyes again, the car had already stopped in front of the Zhao family's door.

He pushed away the driver who tried to support him and staggered inside.

"Brother! You're back! Why did you drink so much?"

Zhao Yun ran out of the room and came to help him. It took a lot of effort for her frail body to help him sit down in the living room.

"Brother, didn't you say before that you would never drink so much again?"

She went to the bathroom, got a wet towel, and wiped his face gently.

Zhao Yunzhou closed his eyes, feeling uncomfortable all over. "I had some business matters, so I drank a few more glasses."

"You can't drink so much, brother. If there's anything you need me to do, you must tell me. You can't carry it alone."

Zhao Yunjiao put the towel aside and said, "Auntie just cooked some hangover soup. I'll bring it to you, brother."

As soon as she stood up, she was caught by Zhao Yunzhou.

The man's eyes were red at this moment, and he held her arm tightly.

"Jiaojiao, are you willing to help me and the Zhao family?"

Zhao Yunjiao felt pain, but she endured it. She sat next to Zhao Yunzhou and said softly, "Brother, we are a family. Isn't that what you said? I also hope to help you so that you don't have to work so hard."

The hand that was holding her suddenly released.

"……Um."

"Then I'll get you some hangover soup. After drinking it, you won't have a headache tomorrow. Wait for me!"

Zhao Yunzhou looked at the girl's back as she left. It turned out that without him noticing, Jiaojiao had grown up and was no longer the little girl who followed him before...

He clenched his fists and took out his mobile phone with great effort. His finger paused for a long time before he finally clicked send.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the girl came over carefully with a hangover soup.

"Brother, stop looking at your phone and drink the hangover soup quickly."

Zhao Yunzhou smiled: "Well, thank you Jiaojiao."
