Chapter 5 - Sifeng's Request

"Sifeng? You ?!"

"Hmm, how could you leave me when I was in a coma, Xiao Ge! You also never visited me, right? You really are cruel!" Sifeng said as he just walked in.

Sifeng entered my apartment carrying a very large suitcase. That suitcase was also the one I used to see in my ward. What does all this mean?

"Xiao Shu, what does this mean?"

I lifted my chin, aiming at Zhishu.

"Sifeng said that he was kicked out by Mr. Zhang, so he plans to stay with you, Yushen."

"WHAT?!"

"Your expression is exaggerated, Xiao Ge. I promise I won't mess around here. I'll also help tidy up your apartment."

"CANNOT! THIS CANNOT! How could I live with you, huh?"

"Do you mind, Yushen? If you object, let Sifeng stay at my house. Too bad for him if he has to live under the bridge." This is Zhishu's voice.

Sifeng, with his melancholy expression, leaned against Zhishu's arm instead.

What was annoying, Zhishu instead stroked Sifeng's head lightly. Really annoying!

However, come to think of it, it was impossible for Mister Zhang to kick her out, right?

I pulled Zhishu from Sifeng's side.

"Why do you believe it so easily, Xiao Shu?" I whispered.

"Looks like he's honest, Yushen. Look how innocent he is right now! This is not the Sifeng we met two years ago. He has turned into a cute kid, Yushen. Look!"

For a moment I turned to him. He showed that innocent face. Disgusting!

"Can I stay here, Gege? Please!" she asked, still with that disgusting expression on her face.

"Don't call me 'Gege'! I don't need a bastard sister like you and I don't intend to be your brother!"

"Xiao Shu! Xiao Yushen yelled at me!"

his whining which made me growl even more so that he clenched his hands.

Gosh, what the hell?

Why is Sifeng acting more jerk than before? Well, if he used to be temperamental and pretentious, at least he was acting independently. But, why is her acting so spoiled like this now? Disgusting! Did the brain surgery fail yesterday?

"Fine, you can just stay at my house then, Sifeng," Zhishu asked.

I immediately pulled back Sifeng's arm.

"Okay, you can stay here. But only for a few days no more! Understood?"

"You really are kind, Yushen."

Zhishu kissed my cheek, short.

"Ah yes, I want to say goodbye as well. I'm going to Guanzhou for a few weeks. The gallery where I work holds a workshop while looking for artifacts from the Han Dynasty. Take care of your health, Yushen!"

"Why are you so suddenly, eum?"

"Just for a few weeks, Yushen. I'll also call you often."

***

Sifeng has been living in my apartment for 2 days, but he doesn't want to tell me why Mr. Zhang kicked him out. Surely he ran away from the house again. But of all places, why did Sifeng choose my house, try it?

"Hey! Sifeng! I didn't give you a ride for free, remember ?!"

"Yes, I understand. I'll help clean up and clean the house too."

"That's a different name. You have to be a household assistant here. Mop, sweep, cook, wash clothes, wash dishes and so on. If you don't want to, you can leave here."

"Who said I didn't want to?"

Sifeng's answer really took my breath away. Why didn't he protest at all?

In fact, I want him to get angry and go home to Mr. Zhang. I'm sure, there must be something wrong with the operation on his brain.

***

It's been more than a week, Sifeng lived in my apartment as a maid. Hahaha, how nice it was to treat her as a maid. Yes, this is calculated in exchange for the time I was his personal assistant, two years ago, right?

The question still remains, why did he do all that? There must be another purpose.

I just came back from jogging and just walked in with my shoes full of mud. In the corner of the living room, I saw Sifeng who was mopping.

Ah yes, I also ordered him to wear a maid dress. How cool, imagine!

Gosh, why am I acting silly like Sifeng right now?

"Oii! I just mopped that part, Yushen!" shouted Sifeng, brandishing the mop handle.

"Oops, sorry! I was on purpose." I walked leisurely whistling toward the room, still wearing muddy shoes of course.

"XIAO YUSHEN!" shouted Sifeng, which made me burst into laughter even more.

Before entering the room, I turned to her for a moment. I still hear Sifeng's nagging clearly.

"This situation makes me understand, how much Cinderella hates her step sister. Hassh! Damn it!"

And strange words like this that make the hardness of my heart soften more and more.

"Oii! Did you say something, Sifeng?"

"No, young master," he replied with a cute and irritating face.

At night, I saw Sifeng fast asleep on the sofa. Sifeng looked very tired. Was my attitude too much towards him then?

But, I did all that so that Sifeng would come back to Mr. Zhang.

Everything Sifeng has been doing in my place all this time, what is Sifeng's goal?

I sat beside Sifeng who was fast asleep. I gently stroked her hair, and this was the first time.

It seems, I did melt. Did I have to give up and admit it as a younger brother? Ah, but this is ridiculous! My heart has not accepted Sifeng as my complete brother.

A few seconds later, Sifeng woke up.

"Young master, you haven't slept yet?" asked Sifeng, getting up.

I was silent for a moment, then glared at him.

"Tell me! What do you want, Sifeng? Surely you have a reason to do all this, right?"

He took a deep breath, then said, "Xiao Yushen, I want you to come back to Mr. Zhang. Stay with him and return the glory of the Zhang Group that you destroyed!"

So, it was because of that? No wonder Sifeng was so adamant. But, do I have to do it this fast? Honestly, I'm still very embarrassed to even look into the eyes of Mr. Zhang, my biological father.

"Then, how about you?" I asked Sifeng back.

"Me? I don't know! Maybe I'll go back to Japan."

"Don't lie, Sifeng! I heard your conversation with Zhishu a few weeks ago. There's no way you could go back to the mother who abandoned you, right?"

"Hahaha, you eavesdropper! Then, I will continue to be your maid. Aren't you so happy to torture me, huh?"

I smiled in response.

"Come back with me, Sifeng! We will both restore the glory of the Zhang Group and forget what happened in the past two years!"

"Tch! Are you kidding, Yushen?

I'm just an outsider, I don't have any blood relation with you. Slowly everyone will forget me, because you are the real Zhang Sifeng, not me. "

I saw his fake smile. Maybe Sifeng was desperately hiding sadness.

"But the doctor who treated me said if you donated blood for me? Most likely we are brothers, Sifeng. My blood type is rare."

"Heh? Then do you believe it? It was just a coincidence, Yushen."

"What if you really are my biological brother?" I said back.

"You're acting cool, Xiao Yushen! Are you feeling sorry for me right now? But thank you, I don't need your pity." Sifeng stood up. "Oh yeah, I'll make coffee for you."

He headed for the kitchen, and now I saw Sifeng's back that was getting farther away and disappeared around the corner of the kitchen.

"This is not pity, Sifeng. Even though it's hard to admit it, I'm starting to care about you, my brother," I muttered.

Sifeng stopped the car suddenly.
