Top celebrity brother universally disliked online? His wealthy older sister pampers him!

Zhuo Xi slunk away.

Qin Chaoyue glanced back at Jiang Lingye's direction, as if praising his behavior, or perhaps pondering something.

A moment.

"Speaking of which, I really should buy you something."

"unnecessary."

Jiang Lingye's answer was very curt.

Upon hearing it, though his face remained expressionless, a surge of uncontrollable joy welled up within him.

It was quickly suppressed again.

"Have it already."

Qin Chaoyue: "Hmm?"

"Can you even wear those men's socks the store gave us?"

"It's possible, but I don't want to."

Qin Chaoyue answered quickly, her dark eyes meeting Jiang Lingye's again, "That was a free gift from the store, not something I gave you."

Jiang Lingye smirked, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

Why does he feel like his life is just a free gift?

He has a good memory; he still remembers things from his childhood.

In those hazy, almost unreal memories, his parents had loved him for a time.

But those things, after the mother becomes pregnant, are like the moon in the water or a flower in a mirror, shattered inch by inch into cracks.

The baby was a girl.

There is no preference for sons over daughters in the family, which is good; in fact, there is even a tendency for the opposite, but that's not a problem either.

He's a boy, he's the older brother, and he's capable of taking care of himself, so he should also take care of his younger sister...

As the family went further and further astray, even the younger sister was affected, and at a young age, she became unrecognizable.

That's their home, not his.

He had no place to belong in that "home," and even the slightest breath would be a grave mistake.

There, he was completely superfluous!

Then--

Just a moment later, Jiang Lingye felt as if he had been having a long and terrifying nightmare.

Fine beads of sweat inexplicably appeared on his forehead.

The boy's already fair complexion grew even paler. "Me...can someone like me even exist?"

She is glamorous and flamboyant on stage, but has a heart more delicate and sensitive than anyone else's.

He craves recognition from others, and even more so, he longs to be loved.

All the information about Jiang Lingye lay on her desk and on her phone.

Qin Chaoyue knew this better than anyone else, but pretended not to know and didn't point it out.

"What... what's wrong with that? You're a living person, not an object. We're just buying you some things to use, what's the big deal?"

She wanted to see who dared to say "no".

Jiang Lingye lowered his head, his stray hairs obscuring his eyes, and bit his light pink lips until they turned white and then red before he could barely stop his body from trembling uncontrollably.

But the voice was still trembling.

"Why... are you so good to me?"

They are clearly people with no relatives or friends, aren't they?

To everyone else, he's nothing but a lump of rotten mud, stinking to the core, yet she still insists on getting closer...

She picked up the hose and repeatedly tried to wash away the filth and stench from his body...

She didn't need to do any of this!

—President Qin knows nothing of youthful sorrow!

She slapped Jiang Lingye on the back, nearly causing him internal injuries.

It also instantly dispelled all the melancholy and sorrow of Jianglingye.

"Jiang Lingye," Qin Chaoyue said, "can we stop being sad?"

Jiang Lingye: "".

"I thought that at your age, the trend of youth angst literature and the non-mainstream Yu Yu style should have already passed."

Jiang Lingye looked up at her sideways and asked, "Have you ever done that?"

Qin Chaoyue: "No, not either."

"Then why did you criticize me?"

"Isn't it because I'm worried that the entertainment industry is a small circle?"

This interruption completely dispelled Jiang Lingye's previous gloomy mood.

What are you going to buy for me?

Qin Chaoyue tilted her head, thinking, "Someone suitable for your age?"

The boy's lips slowly, very slowly, curved into a faint but beautiful smile.

He continued to perform his duties as a bodyguard, tightening his grip on the handbag in his hand.

A good boss is one who can promise people a bright future!

These days, things are looking up for us!

The moment Jiang Lingye stood up, Qin Chaoyue's hand brushed across the boy's head again.

It's so easy, just like petting a puppy.

"This is right~"

"You're young and not ugly. Stop looking so serious and trying to act cool all the time. Your nasolabial folds are starting to show. If that happens, your few fans will just leave even more."

Jiang Lingye glanced at her, "Didn't you already plan the route for me?"

"?"

"If you can't make it in the industry, quit and go back to school."

"If you become ugly, finding a wife will also be a problem."

"Oh, then I won't look for anyone," Jiang Lingye said calmly. "I'll just live out my days alone."

Qin Chaoyue's expression suddenly turned cold, gradually becoming serious.

"Jiang Lingye, are you looking for death? Do you want to live off your sister for the rest of your life?"

Jiang Lingye pondered, analyzed, and drew a conclusion.

"Isn't that impossible?"

Done.

Without even looking at Qin Chaoyue's reaction, he suddenly started laughing uncontrollably.

The boy smiled, his eyes crinkling.

Her already beautiful features shone even brighter under the spotlight, and when she tilted her head back, her hair and eyelashes were gilded with a dazzling gold.

The corners of her eyes sparkled with a dazzling light.

His laughter was too flamboyant and unrestrained.

Even though he didn't say anything particularly funny, it was as if he was trying to vent all the negative energy in his body.

As she moved, her hand covered her lips again, obscuring the smile.

It inexplicably makes one feel a little heartbroken.

Qin Chaoyue glanced at it.

But without waiting for him, Jiang Lingye started walking ahead, and his laughter gradually stopped.

A sense of desolation after the initial excitement.

"If you really can't manage it, then just keep it."

"Even though you're not very bright, you're my only brother—I'll take the loss on this investment."

Helpless...yet doting.

[Suddenly I remembered that Jiang Lingye isn't even eighteen yet; he's still a minor!]

Regardless of Jiang Lingye's character, at least his sister has always been good to him. Despite immense pressure, she appeared on shows with him and didn't abandon him.

Compared to romantic love, blood ties are definitely more reliable.

【cut】

[It's all an act. If Qin Chaoyue really cared about this younger brother, where did she hide when Jiang Lingye was being attacked online? It's just a way to clear her name through variety shows. People who believe that are truly brainless.]

[Yes, yes, yes, everyone else is drunk but you're the only one sober, you're the smartest, you're the only light, the only satay, okay?!]

Don't rush.

In the lens.

Qin Chaoyue also brought Jiang Lingye to the designated location she had chosen.

Qin Chaoyue gave a nod, her domineering CEO aura instantly radiating, "Go ahead, pick what you like."

[Sorry, I've already started laughing—hahahahaha!]

[Qin Chaoyue: I'm going to tell the whole world that I've booked this venue!]

Jiang Lingye tried to hold back, but couldn't help it; the corner of his mouth started to twitch.

"Suitable for me?"

"of course."

Qin Chaoyue said confidently, picking up something from beside her and arguing, "How can you sleep at your age if you're not studying!"

What she was holding was a workbook.

And this is a bookstore.
