The soft sofa sank a little under Lin Mo’s weight.

Lin Xiaozhou shrunk his neck, his curly hair standing on end.

He was quite afraid of his big brother. His big brother was even harder to deal with than big bosses in the games. Every time he was alone with his big brother, he felt like a weak, pitiful, and helpless princess. His big brother was the terrifying villain who bullied him.

“I-I’m fine. I just suddenly missed the air in the American countryside, so I came back just to take a breath of air,” Lin Xiaozhou stammered as he tried to explain himself.

Lin Mo smiled, “Is that so?”

These two words were so plain that it felt like an ice cube was stuck to Lin Xiaozhou’s heart.

Lin Xiaozhou froze, and his little face broke into a smile, “Yes… yes…” as he said that, Lin Xiaozhou stood up and poured a cup of cappuccino for his big brother.

Ever since he was young, Lin Xiaozhou had always been afraid of his brother.

His brother was a squinty-eyed monster. He always had a half-smile on his face, but there was always a blade hidden in his smile. When he grew up, Lin Mo’s job was also very mysterious. Lin Xiaozhou did not dare to ask about it, but he knew that his brother dealt with plenty of blood and tears.

Now, his brother seemed to be calm, but in fact, every word he said implied that he was telling the truth.

However, Lin Xiaozhou did not dare to tell the truth.

“Brother, if you are busy, you can leave first. I can take care of myself.” Lin Xiaozhou could not sit still. He only hoped that he could let his poor little brother go.

Lin Mo looked at him indifferently. “Tell the truth.”

Lin Xiaozhou sat up straight, the words that came out of his mouth did not go through his brain and directly revealed the truth. “I-I had a conflict with my friend. I… I came back to hide… Brother, you have worked hard. Have a cup of cappuccino.”

Lin Mo’s well-defined fingers gently touched the sofa, and he seemed to be thinking. “Your friend — could it be the ‘Zhao’ person that you often mention?”

The number of times Lin Mo and Lin Xiaozhou talked on the phone was few and far between.

Every time they talked, Lin Xiaozhou would mention Zhao Yan.

Lin Mo had secretly looked up Zhao Yan’s information. He was a young, promising, and taciturn man with perfect moral character. He was no different from the characters described in the original novel.

“Yes, yes, yes, it’s him.” Lin Xiaozhou covered his face with his hands. His hair was drooping, and he was so ashamed that he could not see anyone.

All this time, Zhao had been Lin Xiaozhou’s brother!

Lin Xiaozhou really treated him as a brother!

Back then, Lin Xiaozhou had hidden it from his parents and brother, sneaked back to the country, and roamed the capital alone. The first friend that he made a sincere connection with was Zhao Yan. Zhao Yan was smart, wise, and did not mind his talkative nature. The friendship between the two of them was everlasting.

Previously, Lin Xiaozhou had been framed by the live broadcast platform and his rented house had been destroyed. It was also Zhao Yan who had selflessly provided a room for Lin Xiaozhou to stay in.

However…

Lin Xiaozhou had never expected that such a regretful thing would happen after the two of them got drunk.

“What happened between you and Zhao?” Lin Mo asked, not touching the cappuccino coffee on the table.

Lin Xiaozhou drooped his head, looking like a pitiful mushroom that had been ravaged. “Nothing… happened…”

Lin Mo: “Huh?”

Lin Xiaozhou covered his face with his hands and buried himself deep in the sofa. “It was Chuchu’s birthday, and I had a drink with Zhao… I-I have always regarded old Zhao as my confidant and friend, but I really didn’t expect this to happen…”

The past was unbearable to look back on, and now that he thought about it, he could only regret it.

Lin Xiaozhou’s voice was desperate. “I-I slept with Zhao….”
