Chapter 128
Normally, whenever the eldest brother was home, Yuan Fa could not make a move, his head would be slammed against the wall, drowned in water - in short, he never had a pleasant time.
Fortunately, he was extremely resilient and optimistic. Even when lying in a hospital bed, he could cheerfully show off his snacks.
At the same time, Yuan Fa took great pride in the fact that since the eldest brother always attacked his head, it meant the other party was intimidated by his intelligence and wanted to beat him into an idiot through violence, permanently removing the future threat.
The third brother Yuan Yong, fourth brother Yuan Si, and fifth brother Yuan Rui were not accorded such treatment, for with their inferior abilities, they had no qualifications to contend for power with the eldest brother.
Now, with the eldest brother out and the parents away, Yuan Fa was the most formidable person in the entire family.
Hahaha, today he would take charge of his little sister!
Yuan Fa merrily hummed a tune, praising the sun, as he ran towards his sister's room.
However, his joy came to an abrupt halt when he saw his brother Yuan Si.
Yuan Fa coldly questioned: "What are you doing standing outside our sister's door?"
Yuan Si said: "I want to take her out to play."
Yuan Fa said: "You'd better roll away smoothly before I take action. Today, I'm taking her to university, and my classmates are eager to meet her."
This year, Yuan Fa had just been admitted to the law school, and his classmates, upon hearing that the Yuan family had an adorable young daughter, expressed disbelief, as the Yuan family and the word "adorable" had always been estranged.
Yuan Fa decided to bring his sister over, show her off, and establish a towering image in her eyes.
After all, unlike his meager existence at home, he was a legendary figure revered at the law school.
For the sake of his life, Yuan Si took a step back to increase the distance, as the second brother Yuan Fa often beat him for no reason.
But to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
That was absolutely impossible.
The eldest brother usually didn't allow Yuan Si to approach their sister either. If Yuan Si took the risk, the eldest brother would book a hospital bed in advance, beat him up, and then personally drive him to the hospital.
The eldest brother was always very caring. He would ensure that his younger brother didn't die at his hands, but as for whether he would be killed by others, that was none of his concern.
Therefore, Yuan Si's neighboring bed was often occupied by the fierce Yuan Fa. If the latter was in a good mood, Yuan Si could be discharged early; if not, then Yuan Si would be in for a miserable time.
Although he had no chance of defeating Yuan Fa in physical strength, the same could not be said for wits.
Yuan Si had anticipated this situation, and he took out a card from his pocket: "I have the access card. Without it, you won't be able to take our sister out of the Yuan family's gates."
Yuan Fa smiled wickedly like a shark: "How generous and thoughtful of you, thank you."
He suddenly took a step forward, his right hand raised high.
This preparatory move was all too familiar to Yuan Si - the formidable big slap, capable of slamming him into the wall, burying him in concrete so deep that he couldn't be dug out.
Yuan Si tightly clutched the access card to his chest, heroically yelling: "I traded my life for this access card! You'll have to step over my corpse to snatch it away!"
Yuan Fa hesitated for a moment, judging by Yuan Si's expression, he was serious.
This was too sudden. Yuan Fa hadn't figured out how to dispose of the body yet, and getting caught would be troublesome. He couldn't commit murder without thorough preparation.
Yuan Fa asked: "Then what do you want?"
Yuan Si said: "How about this, we cooperate for mutual benefit? I'll take our sister out to play for two hours, and you can have her for the rest of the time."
Yuan Fa said: "Too long, I can only give you half an hour."
Yuan Si said: "At least an hour! Half an hour is over in the blink of an eye. I want to take her on the Ferris wheel, bumper cars, and eat Turkish ice cream. I've even hired a professional photography team to follow us and capture these wonderful moments. Half an hour is definitely not enough!"
After a moment of contemplation, Yuan Fa said: "Alright, deal."
The two briefly shook hands and formed an alliance.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Yuan Fa knocked on the door, but it wasn't locked, and a few light knocks caused it to open by itself.
Looking inside, the third brother Yuan Yong was attacking the fifth brother Yuan Rui.
Meanwhile, the seven-year-old Yuan Luoyi stood by, wearing a pristine white dress, hugging a toy rabbit, her adorable little face full of bewilderment.
Yuan Fa sighed, ah, this adorable little girl was always so healing to the heart.
For her, he could endure the repulsive pain and challenge the eldest brother countless times.
His gaze then shifted to his fighting brothers. How could the gentle scholar Yuan Rui stand a chance against the battle-crazed Yuan Yong?
As the second brother, Yuan Fa had the duty to ensure his younger brothers' survival. Currently, Yuan Rui was bleeding profusely from the nose, but his heart and lungs were still functioning, so he could be ignored for the moment.
The Yuan family's fifth son, Yuan Rui, saw the situation and his mind raced.
Defeating the third brother was impossible, absolutely impossible in this lifetime. The only option was to cling to being the sister's human shield or something.
He had to find a way to gain the second brother's help, or he wouldn't see tomorrow's sun!
What did the second brother value most?
The sister.
What did the third brother value most?
Also the sister.
He had to instigate conflict between them!
Yuan Rui shouted: "Second brother! Quick, lend me a hand. The third brother said you're too selfish to be a proper brother, and he wants to directly kidnap our sister!"
How could he tolerate this!
Yuan Fa marched over and glared angrily at Yuan Yong.
This anti-social, wooden-brained scumbag was displaying violence in front of their sister again and even trying to abduct her!
The situation suddenly changed with the addition of a new force. Yuan Yong immediately altered his strategy, releasing Yuan Rui's collar and moving gracefully and swiftly to stand behind Yuan Luoyi, placing his hand on her tiny shoulder.
Yuan Yong arrogantly surveyed his brothers: "She has already agreed to go to the Firefly Park with me. Today, all of you are superfluous."
The third brother Yuan Yong's single sentence enraged all his brothers.
The second brother Yuan Fa said: "Pray for me, my dear brother, there's still a possibility of leaving you with an intact corpse."
The fourth brother Yuan Si said: "The third brother's linguistic artistry is as terrible as his social skills, barely more sophisticated than a bamboo insect. This anti-social child is truly beyond redemption. We might as well send him for reincarnation."
The fifth brother Yuan Rui thought for a moment. Since all his brothers could potentially kill him, he decided not to offend anyone and maintained silence, leaving a way out for himself in case they met again in the future.
In terms of strength, Yuan Yong was adept at close-quarters combat, but fighting two opponents at once was still quite difficult.
Second Brother Yuan Fa and Fourth Brother Yuan Si surrounded him, while Fifth Brother Yuan Rui stood by, secretly giving a thumbs up, hoping they would all perish together.
This murderous aura, someone might lose their life.
Yuan Luoyi decided to intervene, she said: "Today I want to go out and play with my brothers."
The moment of hunting was over, the four brothers put away their killing intent, and in front of their sister, they would hide their dark side.
They each began to harbor ulterior motives, scheming against each other.
How to exclude the others without violence, in a reasonable and legal way, leaving only oneself to take their sister out to play?
