123 He Is My Older Brother

Jing Yan’s breathing suddenly stopped, and he gasped. He looked away guiltily. “Why do you ask?”

He Miao was silent for a moment, then said indifferently, “I want to hear the truth from you.”

Jing Yan sighed. He did not want to lie in front of her, so he lowered his eyes and said in a muffled voice, “Yes, I’m worried about your safety.”

“Are you worried about my safety or something else?” He Miao did not want to be fooled so easily. She glared at him and said, “I made it clear to you last time that I only see you as my brother. Don’t you remember?”

“Miaomiao, I’m really worried about you going to the amusement park alone with another man like you’re on a date!” Jing Yan held her shoulders and begged in a low voice, “Don’t be angry. I’ve been missing for so many days, and this is the first thing you’ve asked me?”

He Miao heaved a long sigh of relief and suppressed the anger in her heart. She looked up at him seriously. “Then where have you been these past few days?”

A hint of joy appeared on Jing Yan’s face. He took out the gift box from his pocket and put it in her hand. “Open it and take a look.”

He Miao opened the lid hesitantly and was surprised to see a shining bracelet embedded with gems lying inside.

She stuffed the box back into Jing Yan’s hands without hesitation. “It’s too expensive. I can’t take it.”

Jing Yan had expected her to say that. He put it on her wrist without a care. “Don’t worry, I didn’t spend any money. This is the prize I won from a competition.”

“Don’t all prizes have a sentimental value?” He Miao frowned. She still felt that it was not suitable for her to wear it, so she took it off and returned it to him. “I don’t want this. This is your prize. You should keep it for yourself.”

“I especially won it for you.” Jing Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the girl’s fair wrist seriously, his eyes full of tenderness. “Otherwise, why would I travel such a long distance to participate in that insignificant competition?”

After he made such a scene, He Miao’s anger dissipated by half. However, she still wanted him to remember this. She glared at him and walked out of the room.

Jing Yan was about to follow her when his vision suddenly turned black and he lost consciousness. Before he closed his eyes, Jing Yan saw the time on the clock on the wall. He cursed himself for being careless and then fell heavily to the ground.

The sound of something heavy falling to the ground came from behind her. He Miao turned around in surprise and saw Jing Yan lying unconscious on the ground.

She called Li Ming over and they carried Jing Yan to the bed. She called Grandpa Jing and told him what had happened. Then she waited for the Jing family to send a doctor over.

She held up his hand with lingering fear. He had fallen unconscious on the ground and hit his knuckles, and now his joints were red and swollen.

She found the first aid kit and carefully applied the medicine for him.

While her brother was out buying food, Li Luo sneaked up to He Miao’s side. “Sister, what’s your relationship with this brother?”

“He’s my brother.” Yes,” He Miao replied. She put his hand down and went to deal with the other wounds.

“So it’s like this!” Li Luo smiled happily. Just now, she saw that her brother’s expression was very bad and thought that her sister already had a boyfriend. She did not expect this person to be her sister’s brother. She would tell her brother this good news in a while!

“Woof!” Jing Yan barked and stood beside He Miao. He raised his dog head and rubbed it against her wrist.

Li Luo patted his head with a smile, but Jing Yan turned around and almost bit her hand.

He Miao smacked its butt and tucked Jing Yan in. Just then, the doorbell rang.

She went to open the door for the Jing family’s doctor and Li Ming came in with dinner.

As the private doctor of the Jing family, his medical skills were far better than those of the doctors in the city Hospital. However, after a long examination, he still could not tell the real reason for Jing Yan’s coma. He only mumbled awkwardly, “Young Master Jing doesn’t look like he’s unconscious. He looks more like he’s asleep.”

“You said he’s sleeping?” He Miao’s brows were tightly knitted together. She recalled that Jing Yan had been in a similar situation before. Although he could not find the cause of the illness, his life was not in danger. He Miao heaved a sigh of relief.

After the doctor left, the three of them had dinner together. Li Ming left with his sister. Before he left, he stood at the door and looked at He Miao worriedly. “Are you sure you can do it alone? Why don’t you let me stay here to accompany you?”

Hearing this, Jing Yan immediately barked at him angrily.

He Miao quickly picked up her dog and smiled apologetically. “It’s alright. He should be able to wake up tomorrow.”

Li Ming’s eyes fell on the bracelet on her wrist. His eyes darkened, but he did not say anything more. He turned around and left with his sister.

Li Luo saw that her brother had a lot on his mind and solemnly tugged at his arm. “Brother, don’t worry. Sister said that man is her brother, just like you and Luoluo. He won’t snatch sister away from you!”

Li Ming squatted down and touched the top of her head. She smiled gently, “She really said that?”

“Yes,” Li Luo patted her chest and promised. Luoluo would not lie to brother!
