Dad's expression had been dark since they left for their grandparent’s house in the morning. When at their grandparent’s place, he wandered aimlessly in the backyard, unable to fit in. His face was almost as black as charcoal the entire day.
However, as soon as they got on the bus to go home, his complexion improved considerably, perhaps relieved to finally escape that place.
By the time they arrived home, it was already past seven. Mom started to visit her friends' houses, starting with the Shi Yuli's family right across from Lin Jin's house.
The parents of Yuli and Lin Jin had known each other for over a decade. The two families were once very close, especially between Lin Jin's mom and Yuli's mom. At the height of their friendship, they would even cook extra portions of meals to send to each other's homes, and share any good things they bought.
However, the relationship had fallen apart due to dad, and now that mom was back, she naturally wanted to maintain this relationship. After all, they were neighbors across the street. Even if Lin Jin didn't leave with her, she could still ask Yuli's family to look after him a bit.
Lin Jin didn't go. He took a quick shower, put on his pajamas, and crawled into the bed on the ground before his dad in the living room or his brother Lin Chen, who was on his phone in the bedroom, could react.
The only entertainment Lin Jin had at home was his phone, either reading novels or using data to watch TV. If he had enough data, he would even turn on the hotspot and play some online games on his laptop.
Even though the lag was terrible.
Resting his chin on a pillow, Lin Jin laid on the bedsheets like a salted fish and placed his phone in front of him to watch videos.
"Hey, little bro" Lin Jin was feeling a bit bored, he had already watched these videos in the internet cafe that afternoon. He rolled over and looked up at Lin Chen, who was sitting on the bed, "Wanna go out tonight?"
"It's already past seven." As a good kid, Lin Chen rarely went out at night.
"You make it sound like you can't go out after seven o'clock." Lin Jin rolled around on the floor, cast a sidelong glance at the indifferent Lin Chen, and then continued to roll.
"Brother, can you stop rolling?" Lin Chen put down his cell phone helplessly. Lin Chen, who wanted to read the novel, was constantly distracted by Lin Jin rolling around.
After his attempt at persuasion failed, Lin Jin continued to roll. Lin Chen could only shake his head and then asked, "Where do you want to go?"
Why do I feel like my brother is acting all spoiled towards me?
Lin Chen suppressed the strange thought, stood up from the bed and squatted at the edge of the bedsheets. He looked at Lin Jin, who stopped rolling after a few turns and met his gaze.
"How about... going to a bar for drinks?" Lin Jin's eyes lit up. Though he was a bit of a delinquent, he had never been to a bar.
"No."
"Karaoke?" Lin Jin suggested again.
"Just the two of us at karaoke?" Lin Chen scratched his hair and looked helplessly as Lin Jin started to roll over again "Or, how about we just go out, walk around, and grab some snacks?"
"That works." Lin Jin was immediately swayed by Lin Chen's suggestion. He threw off the quilt that had been wrapped around him and ran excitedly to his wardrobe to find clothes to wear outside.
So there was Lin Chen, staring in confusion at Lin Jin's two unconstrained lumps of flesh on her chest, about the size of an A, jiggling slightly.
What the f*ck?! Is my brother really a brother?!
Though he had already pondered this last night, Lin Chen still found himself doubting his entire worldview.
It couldn't be that my brother was actually a sister, right?
Lin Chen's face paled a little. Whether Lin Jin was a brother or sister, considering Lin Jin's current figure and appearance, just the thought of sharing a bed with him for another six nights made Lin Chen feel as if the world was falling apart.
He'd barely slept the first night, will he be able to get any sleep in the future?
And hey, I'm also a man! What if one of us can’t control it anymore…
Oh, it doesn't matter. If I can't control myself, my brother will definitely beat me up.
As someone who had been bullied by Lin Jin but also taken care of a lot since childhood, although Lin Chen felt that his strong build should be able to beat Lin Jin, he could not imagine that happening at all due to psychological reasons.
It's like a child who has been disciplined by his parents. Even if the child is in the prime of his life and the parents are in their eighties, the moment he sees them, he'll instinctively back down. Even if he gets hit, there'll be no fighting back.
So even if Lin Chen is now stronger than his brother, if Lin Jin wants to beat him up, he probably wouldn't be able to fight back at all.
He had already lost the momentum.
Lin Jin was cheerfully getting ready to change his clothes but suddenly remembered there was someone else in the room. His movements abruptly halted, and he turned his head, squinting his eyes at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's body froze for a moment before he ran out the room without hesitation.
Lin Jin smoothly locked the bedroom door, then changed into an all black outfit of shirt and pants with a sweatshirt on the outside. He smoothed out his messy hair with his hands and walked out of the room.
Since Lin Chen hadn't showered yet, there was no need for him to change. Seeing Lin Jin come out, he conscientiously opened the main door, only to find Shi Yuli, who was holding a trash bag and planning to go downstairs to throw it out.
"Wow! You're Lin Chen, right?!" This was Yuli's first time seeing Lin Chen since he came back home. In her memory, Lin Chen was supposed to be a scrawny and introverted kid, but today she saw an entirely different Lin Chen.
"Yes." Lin Chen remembered Yuli's existence and asked tentatively, "Shi Yuli?"
"Yeah, yeah! Don't you think I've become a lot prettier since we were kids?" Yuli held up and twirled the slightly smelly garbage bag and excitedly continued asking Lin Chen "Right? Right? Haven't I become much prettier?"
"You'd look okay if you put down that garbage." Lin Jin, who happened to just reach the door saw Yuli circling and said viciously, "You look like a lunatic right now."
"You're the lunatic!" Yuli rolled her eyes and shot back at Lin Jin, "Look at your brother and then look at yourself! Your brother has become so handsome, what about you?"
Despite having the same parents and being the same gender, Lin Jin had grown more and more beautiful, almost surpassing her, a naturally pretty young girl.
"Are you saying I'm not handsome?!" Lin Jin exaggeratedly widened his eyes, "Is there something wrong with your aesthetics?"
"Get lost!" Shi Yuli didn't want to argue with Lin Jin. After rolling her eyes, she continued to ask, "Where are you guys going so late?"
"Just going to a pedestrian street and wander around."
"Okay! I'm coming too!"
