30

When he saw how Xu ZiYan chose a Wood Element Supporting Arts book, Old Luo's expression looked somewhat amazed. He didn't expect that Xu ZiYan would actually dote on Xu ZiRong to this degree, for him to even give Xu ZiRong this opportunity Xu ZiYan had received with much difficulty.

However, Old Luo's expression quickly returned to normal. The only reason he stayed here was merely for the purpose of guarding Xu family's foundation. As for these affairs among the younger generation, it had absolutely nothing to do with him.

The gaze Xu Mo used to look at Xu ZiYan was extremely strange. He couldn't understand no matter how much he thought about it. Where exactly did that formally arrogant and despotic Young Master go? Although the previous Xu ZiYan did not reach the degree where he had no concern for others, for him to be this generous and for him to give out that kind of opportunity …… it was really quite unfathomable. Thus, Xu Mo could only use his hair-rising gaze to stare at Xu ZiYan and Xu ZiRong's fingertips, switching his line-of-sight back and forth.

On the other hand, Xu ZiRong was rather calm. This was because he thought Xu ZiYan must have chosen that jade book, the one that emitted berserk rays of thunder and lightning power.

Only……

Xu ZiRong's gaze became slightly dark. To be capable of concealing this from Old Luo's inspection, it seemed that his own 'big brother' had a lot more secrets he had not yet discovered.

Completely unaware of how he had exposed something about himself in front of Xu ZiRong, Xu ZiYan very happily gave Xu ZiRong a meaningful glance. Afterwards, the two of them returned to the Liu Shang Courtyard.

With how they were currently living together combined with how Xu ZiRong had been the one to inform him about this jade book's existence in the first place,  Xu ZiYan completely didn't think much about it. It was only until after he had brought Xu ZiRong back to their room when he realized——how was he supposed to take this thing out ah?

He couldn't just make a jade book appear out of thin air right in front of Xu ZiRong, now could he?

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Xu ZiRong pretended to be puzzled as he asked the older boy.

It only took Xu ZiRong one look at Xu ZiYan's expression for him to deduce that the other must be feeling troubled over how he was supposed to take that jade book out. A trick that was able to keep a Golden Core Elder in the dark, you didn't even need to think to know that Xu ZiYan didn't want to expose it in front of himself.

However, Xu ZiRong didn't intend to let Xu ZiYan off. He was not fond of how there was something he couldn't control on Xu ZiYan's body, especially in the current situation where he was extremely satisfied with this 'big brother'. Nothing unexpected was permitted!

Xu ZiRong pretended to look innocent as he steadily stared at the other boy. In addition, his pair of pitch-black eyes glistened in a shiny manner, making the Xu ZiYan who was looking at him feel embarrassed to keep concealing it from the younger.

Xu ZiYan thought for a moment before he coughed twice. "ZiRong, ah, have you seen someone do magic tricks before?"

Xu ZiRong: ……

Xu ZiYan continued to use that sort of 'really hoping he'll say no' gaze to stare at him. Thus, Xu ZiRong could only hem and haw as he mumbled, "I didn't."

"That's great! Big brother can show you one, is that alright? First, close your eyes," Xu ZiYan was really satisfied with his own little brother's previous words. Having an obedient child was really too great! ZiRong was really much more lovable compared to that bear child ZiYu!
