Senior brother is so awesome!

The seven of them left Xianyun Pavilion together, all silent except for Lin Hongxuan, who cheerfully stepped forward, hooked his arm around Yang Shanshan's shoulder, and said, "Junior Sister, why are you so quiet? Were you frightened by that little thief? Let me tell you, if you ever have any problems, come to your senior brother, and I'll take care of everything for you!" He patted his chest proudly as he spoke.

Yang Shanshan, who was deep in thought, was startled by his sudden embrace. The fact that the little thief was hiding in her room was already enough to upset her, and the clueless little boy was making things worse. She glared helplessly at Lin Hongxuan, slapped his hand off her shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother. Boasting in front of all the other senior brothers, aren't you afraid of biting your tongue?"

Upon hearing this, the five senior brothers who had been silent behind him all had different expressions. The fourth senior brother, Situ Ze, stepped forward and pushed the little boy next to Yang Shanshan aside. His roguish peach blossom eyes were full of disregard. He turned to Yang Shanshan and said, "Junior sister, your senior brother is skilled in both literature and martial arts. If you are scared, you can move into my room. I will protect you personally!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Shanshan lowered her head helplessly, ran a few steps to get away from him, and then raised her face and said, "Alright, Fourth Senior Brother, you'd better pray for yourself. Maybe that little thief likes someone as beautiful as you who doesn't look like a man!"

Everyone present, except for Situ Ze, burst into laughter. Even Zhong Zhichen, who appeared stern and unyielding, coughed and slightly curled the corners of his mouth. The gloom that had appeared when she was touched by her junior brother disappeared. Looking at the bright-eyed and white-toothed woman walking at the front, a smile spread across her small face, making her look almost unreal.

At that moment, she was unaware that this beautiful scene was deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone present, and would remain so for many years to come.

After the laughter and commotion subsided, the group reached a fork in the road. The residences of the eldest, second, and third senior brothers were on the west side, while those of the fourth, fifth, and little boy were on the east side. Yang Shanshan's Luoxue Pavilion was in front of the eldest brother's residence. Reluctantly, they parted ways at the fork in the road.

The atmosphere became a little awkward. She heard the sounds of playing around coming from the path to the east not far away. She wished she could fly over there immediately and escape this stifling atmosphere!

Senior Brother Zhong Zhichen was walking at the front, his hands behind his back. The embroidered patterns on his dark purple robe swayed back and forth in front of Yang Shanshan. She couldn't help but think to herself, "What a gentleman in public, a lecher in private!" Second Senior Brother had been silent because of yesterday's unpleasantness, and even his expression was unreadable. He looked up when he felt her gaze and their eyes met. A gentle smile appeared on his face, but this usually warm and welcoming expression seemed fake to Yang Shanshan, like a mask. His ashen face seemed to be a different person from him. Her heart ached, and she lowered her head, no longer looking at him.

Nangong Xu, who was walking at the back, could clearly see Yang Shanshan's expression. A knowing smile appeared on his handsome face as he waved his fan like a butterfly.

Finally, they reached the path leading to Luoxue Pavilion. Yang Shanshan felt a huge weight lifted from her heart and instantly relaxed. She turned around, bowed to her three senior brothers, and said sweetly, "We've arrived at Chan'er's residence. Please take your time, senior brothers." After saying that, she turned around and rushed towards Luoxue Pavilion as if she were being followed by wolves and tigers.

"Finally home! Everyone's like a block of wood, sigh!" When she saw the dark purple robe beside her, she instinctively shouted. But when she saw the glint in his narrow eyes, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

"Now that we're here, why not go in?" With that, Zhong Zhichen strode into Luoxue Pavilion, leaving Yang Shanshan looking shocked.

When Sui Xin saw the stern-faced Zhong Zhichen arrive, she was initially startled. However, upon seeing the young lady behind her pouting and looking displeased, she wisely served tea and withdrew.

Zhong Zhichen nodded in satisfaction when he saw that the door he had damaged yesterday had been replaced with a new one. He glanced at the little girl who was five steps away from him and beckoned her over with a gentle smile, "Come here."

Yang Shanshan looked around and found that Suixin had already left without making a sound. She cursed herself inwardly for choosing such a disloyal maid! She raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with panic, but she refused to take a step forward. Good heavens, who knows what the big bad wolf is up to now!

Seeing her timid little face and her big, pitiful eyes looking at him, Zhong Zhichen's heart melted instantly. He poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and put it down. He then parted his thin lips and said, "It seems that Junior Sister still hasn't learned her lesson. In that case, I'll have to trouble Senior Brother. Perhaps Junior Sister prefers to stand... for intimacy."
