"Hmph!" Wang Hui didn't respond to Ah Long as before. She pouted and used her chopsticks to poke at the food inside her bowl.
"Geez, I really know I was in the wrong. Doesn't saying I've recognized my wrongs and taken actions to better myself make me a good kid? Pardon me this once, alright? I'll find a day to take you out on a trip." Ah Long looked to Wang Hui piteously and said.
Hearing Ah Long's words, Yan Tian nearly choked. Ah Long was already a twenty-something-year-old man on the older side, yet recognizing his mistakes and mending his ways made him a good little kid? His appearance was clearly that of a foot-scratching man!
"Tch!"
Hardly unexpected, Wang Hui was amused by Ah Long's speech, but soon after she immediately retracted her smile. Subsequently, she assumed a rather aggrieved expression.
"Wah, Little Sis Hui'er, didn't you see that you just smiled, haha. Doesn't smiling demonstrate you don't bear a grudge towards me? Haha!" Noticing Wang Hui had just gave him a smile, Ah Long was relieved. He really was scared she would continue to bear a grudge against him.
"As if. Who forgave you? I just happened to be smiling at Nan Nan's table manners. You're really wasting your breath*." Wang Hui rolled her eyes at Ah Long and said.
"Huh? Big Sis, what about my table manners?" Hearing himself mentioned, Sun Nan dazedly lifted up his head.
"No, it's nothing, eat up!"
From Wang Hui's expression a moment ago, Yan Tian noticed it as well; she already bore no grudge with Ah Long any longer. After all, the matter had already occurred. It wouldn't be of any use to keep on harboring a grudge. Besides, Wang Feng and Ah Long were even brothers now!
Eating, Wang Hui gave Yan Tian a piece of meat in her bowl. With a blush on her face she said: "Big Brother Yan, eat more!"
"Mhm, it's pretty good. It's surprisingly better than my own handiwork!" Savoring the food, Yan Tian praised it in satisfaction.
Yan Tian had believed his own cooking was rather good already, but tasting Wang Hui's food, Yan Tian knew what it meant by there was a man above a man and a sky beyond a sky. Compared to Wang Hui, he truly felt inferior.
"Heehee, it's great that Big Brother Tian doesn't think it's bad!"
"Not at all, how could it be bad? Like Ah Long said, it's kind of pleasure to eat the food you made, haha!" Yan Tian laughed and said.
"How can it be so exaggerated!" Upon hearing Yan Tian's praise, Wang Hui lowered her head a bit embarrassedly, yet his compliment caused her to be delighted in her heart.
"Oh, that's right. I haven't cooked one last dish. When I see that you guys have finished eating, I'll go make it!" Suddenly Wang Hui recalled she still hadn't cooked something and immediately scurried into the kitchen to busy herself.
"Brother Tian, ehehe!" Upon seeing Wang Hui run off, Ah Long looked at Yan Tian and chuckled wretchedly at him.
"No, Ah Long how come you're looking at me like that? I'm scared……"
Seeing Ah Long looked at him with such an expression, Yan Tian was suddenly a bit nervous, thinking to himself could it be that the man had fallen for him?
Calling this to mind, Yan Tian shifted his chair away in fright. Afterwards, he stuck his hand below to closely cover his butt, making it seem like he was like a young woman being bullied.
"Dammit, Brother Tian. Your position…… I'm straight!" As soon as he saw that he had been misunderstood, Ah Long quickly cursed. He was magnificent specimen of a man*.
"Oh…… So it's like that. Then I'm relieved. If there's nothing wrong, then don't look at people so vulgarly and laugh. You scared daddy to death just now!" At this moment, Yan Tian was finally pat his chest in relief. He then nudged his seat forward and took his chopsticks, sweeping through the food on the table.
"Then what issue didja have with me that you were just looking at me? Spit it out!"
After two bites, Yan Tian recalled the wretched look in Ah Long's eyes just a moment ago. He didn't need to guess to know what the matter Ah Long was speaking with him about. Furthermore, from his wretched smile, he could judge it absolutely wasn't anything good.
"Ehehe, Brother Tian, don't you have several girlfriends right now?" After he heard Yan Tian's words, Ah Long looked at Yan Tian once more with a terrible smile.
"Goddamn, how does me having several girlfriends related to your hair of a matter?" Upon hearing Ah Long bring up the matter of his women, Yan Tian glared at him fiercely.
Yan Tian truly thought it over. Every day, there were many women he was in contact with. It really did seem he didn't just have one girlfriend. It seemed he had to push it to the limit, otherwise he would be too much of a failure as a man.
In fact, in regards to whether Yan Tian had a girlfriend or not, he really did have one. That London missy Diana could be considered one, and if it were not for her father obstructing him, he reckoned he would've already carried her off and married her.
Then there was Meng Die. She was the sole woman he had ever made love with. The two of them had already consummated their relationship before they had even become adults.
"Ehehe, Brother Tian. You see, you've got so many beauties at your side. Can't you…… Ehehe!" Ah Long looked at Yan Tian in embarrassment.
"Mhm? What? Could it be you want Brother Tian to give you one?" Wang Feng looked at Ah Long in shock, thinking to himself was it that the alcohol had swelled his courage? At the same time, Yan Tian lifted his head as well and looked at Ah Long with beaming smile.
Ah Long glanced at Yan Tian and Wang Feng looking at him with a peculiar look in their eyes and promptly said: "Geez, that's not it. My intentions are that since Brother Tian has so many women accompanying him, then can't he not fight over Wang Hui with me!"
"What? You want my little sister, you punk? I'll tell you, there's no way!" Just as Ah Long finished speaking, Wang Feng was displeased. So for the quite a while now, Ah Long's plan was to hit on his little sister!
"Heh, I'll chase after whoever I want to chase. What's it matter to you? Anyways, I ain't pining after you. Brother Tian, lay it all out. If you're sweet on Wang Hui, then I'll give up."
After he said several things to Wang Feng, Ah Long went to seek Yan Tian's opinion. If Yan Tian had no problems, then he could court Wang Feng at ease. However, if Yan Tian had her on his mind, then he wouldn't dare to snatch her from Yan Tian even if he was beaten to death.
"Cough, cough, What're you asking me for? I look at Wang Hui as a little sister." Yan Tian coughed twice and said. "Really?! Hahaha, then I'm relieved!" Listening to Yan Tian's words, Ah Long looked at Wang Feng smugly.
"Fuck it, I don't agree. How could my little sister get together with a gangster?" Wang Feng slammed the table in displeasure and said.
"A gangster? What's wrong with a gangster? Are you starting to look down on gangsters now? You're a frickin' gangster, too. In any case, I'm even better at gangstering than you are."
Hearing Ah Long's words, Wang Feng thought it to be right as well. He himself was a gangster, too. It was unknown how many more times he had gone to the police station than Ah Long.
"Hmph, stinking punk, pour a cup for me!" After he pondered the matter, Wang Feng crossed his leg over the other and said to Ah Long.
"What? You're calling me a stinking punk? You can go pour that cup yourself." Ah Long rolled his disdainfully at Wang Feng.
"Sigh, originally I had planned on considering what someone had just said, but forget about it. I won't consider it." Wang Feng shook his head in exasperation, preparing to pour himself a cup of wine.
As soon as he heard Wang Feng, Ah Long was stunned. Wang Feng had said he was considering a matter someone had just said, but didn't just happen to say he wanted to court Wang Hui? That someone was him. Apparently, Wang Feng was in agreement now?
Calling this to mind, Ah Long instantly sobered up, taking the bottle of wine and pouring a cup for Wang Feng rather deferentially: "Hahaha, Brother Feng, if you got something to say, then please say it. Didn't I pour you a glass? Who are we between the two of us!"
"Hmph, so you actually rather eager to butter me up. I'm telling you, if you dare to do wrong by my sister, even if I have to risk my life, I will slaughter you." Wang Feng looked at Ah Long seriously and warned.
Wang Feng's words weren't a joke. He little sister was his only one. If Ah Long dare not be good to her, he would truly put his life on the line to teach Ah Long a lesson.
"Ehehe, how could it be? Do you consider me as that type of man? When I kidnapped her last time, I didn't do anything to her……"
Just as Ah Long was halfway through speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head by Wang Feng: "You're still speaking!"
"A-a-ah, I'm not speaking, I'm not speaking. Chill out, I won't, ehehe!" Ah Long clutched his head and chuckled.
"Wang Feng, you can be at rest. If this punk Ah Long dares to do wrong by my little sister, you don't need to make a move. I will personally flay him! At this time, Yan Tian was nibbling on a chicken leg and said.
Listening to what Yan Tian had stood up to say, Wang Feng relaxed. With Brother Tian guaranteeing this, there wouldn't be any problems. Looking at Ah Long, he snorted coldly and continued to pick up his chopsticks and eat.
"Relax, Brother Tian. I'm serious. I sincerely like Wang Hui." Ah Long blushed at this moment.
*Kinda hard to translate. What Wang Hui is saying here is "you're showering love on an uninterested person/thinking that the other person's reciprocates your sentiment. Sound awkward to say that so I used wasting your breath. Doesn't capture full scope of what Wang Hui means, but it’s close.
*This phrased showed up in earlier chapters and I'm not sure if I made a note, but he literally says he is a magnificent seven che man. A che being a chinese measurement of a foot. I feel it’s awkward to say this for english readers, so I changed it.
"Hmph!" Wang Hui didn't respond to Ah Long as before. She pouted and used her chopsticks to poke at the food inside her bowl.
"Geez, I really know I was in the wrong. Doesn't saying I've recognized my wrongs and taken actions to better myself make me a good kid? Pardon me this once, alright? I'll find a day to take you out on a trip." Ah Long looked to Wang Hui piteously and said.
