Chapter 26: Annoying Second Brother
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The reason why Yu Yao refused Qiao Lian’s offer was very simple. She didn’t really lack money, so there was no need for her to accept such an obvious bribe.
Of course, it was possible that Qiao Lian’s salary wasn’t very high. After all, in Yu Yao’s previous life, the food and toys of a rich scion had been worth millions. It would be reasonable for Qiao Lian to hire a royal cat poop-picker with a high salary.
After rejecting his offer to work, Yu Yao didn’t pay attention to any other information about working part-time.
Previously, when she had gone to the university to cancel her leave of absence, she had taken an environmental engineering specialization class. After that, she had made up her mind to transfer to another major. Recently, she had found some information on other majors in the university and was currently researching them. She was a little hesitant about whether she should choose the same major as she had done in her previous life and work in the same profession in the future.
To be honest, the professors in the relevant departments were not as good as she was. She wouldn’t be able to learn anything useful from them, but she couldn’t think of any other major she could choose.
Of course, there was no hurry for her to change majors. It would not be too late to make a decision before the term ended.
Yu Yao had moved into the new apartment Yu Lang had given her a long time ago. She wasn’t picky about the geographical location and environment of the estate. The only thing that made her unhappy was that Yu Lang, Yu Heng, and Yu Jue had all moved into this estate, and their apartment was in the same building as hers.
When she went to university or got home afterwards, Yu Yao would occasionally bump into one of the three brothers.
Of course, compared to Yu Lang, who went to and from work regularly, and Yu Jue, who often had to attend events all over the country, Yu Yao met Yu Heng, who was a guest professor at her university, much more frequently.
He had somehow managed to get Yu Yao’s timetable. If he had enough time to attend university, he would take the initiative to be her driver.
In fact, Yu Yao felt that he was a little annoying. How could she skip class when she was being driven by a professor from the university?
Universities that didn’t allow one to skip classes were plain wrong. As for some classes that she had already done in her previous life, such as advanced algebra and English, Yu Yao really didn’t feel the need to sit in the classroom and waste her time on them!
The first lesson of the morning was advanced mathematics. Yu Heng, who was staying downstairs with Yu Yao, forcefully woke her up. He pulled her, who was still a little sleepy, into the car and took her all the way to the advanced mathematics classroom.
Yu Heng placed a thermos food bag in front of her. “Yaoyao, there’s hot milk, bread, and eggs inside. There’s still about ten minutes before class starts. You can have breakfast first.”
He inserted a straw into the milk and placed it in her hand. Yu Yao, who had woken up early, didn’t seem to be very lucid yet. She slowly took a sip of the milk, not sure if she had heard his words.
Yu Heng resisted the urge to take out his phone and take a picture of her cute appearance. He then took out her textbook and placed it aside.
“Your mathematics professor told me about your performance in class. You are great. You know all the answers to the questions that the teacher asks, but you have to show the teacher some respect. At the very least, flip the book open to where the teacher is reading from, understand?”
“Oh…” Yu Yao nodded listlessly. After a while, she finally realized what Yu Heng had said and immediately became more spirited. “I’m not a child anymore, why should I be reprimanded in class when I’m distracted?”
At this moment, the professor of the class just happened to walk into the classroom. She nodded at Yu Heng, not minding that she was being ridiculed by her student.
“A normal university teacher wouldn’t complain to a student’s parents, but since I’m around… It wouldn’t be right if she didn’t make use of such ample opportunities to complain.”
Yu Yao puffed up her cheeks and glared at her brother unhappily.
She did not realize that there was an intimate look in his eyes, but Yu Heng had noticed that Yu Yao was expressing her displeasure in a way that was similar to a spoiled child.
Yu Heng felt as if his heart had been struck by something. He felt a little bitter but touched, and there was also an indescribable joy.
At this moment, Yu Heng finally realized how different true kinship was from deception. In his previous life, Yu Wan had acted coquettishly towards him. In the beginning, he and his two brothers had seemed to be happy as well, but later on, this seemed to have become a fixed way of getting along with her.
First, Yu Wan would act coquettishly to them, complaining about her grievances or making all kinds of requests. Then, the three brothers would act as if they had been trained to react instinctively. Their routine was also fixed: to comfort Yu Wan, to help her solve her troubles, or to buy her the things she wanted. This became a mode of behavior, and Yu Heng could not feel the joy and happiness that he should have when she wheedled.
At this moment, Yu Heng felt a huge sense of satisfaction from being glared at by Yu Yao!
He finally understood how wonderful it was to be a brother that his sister could rely on!
Yu Heng and Yu Jue had probably never experienced such a wonderful feeling before, so Yu Heng decided to share his happiness with his brothers on his WeChat Moments!
