"Hehe! That’s more like it!"

Qin Hao strode over, reached out and tried to grab Jin Ni’Er, but she was prepared and dodged, shouting, "Don’t hug me like that! Or I’d rather be alone!"

"Alright then!" Qin Hao awkwardly touched his nose and asked, "By the way, Ni’Er, why did you scream just now?"

"I..." Now Jin Ni’Er was embarrassed. She couldn’t possibly tell Qin Hao she was scared by a mouse, could she?

If she did say that, she could already imagine Qin Hao’s gradually mocking smile.

She could only lie, "I accidentally scratched my hand on a branch, and it hurt a bit."

"A branch scratch made you scream like that?" Qin Hao looked completely puzzled, "Where’s your injury? Let me see..."

Seeing Qin Hao reaching his hand over, Jin Ni’Er was displeased and said unhappily, "Mind your own business! I don’t need you to worry about my injury!"

"Oh, alright then."

Qin Hao nodded sadly, then suddenly his expression changed, and he pointed at Jin Ni’Er’s feet, shouting, "There’s a mouse!"

The next moment.

"Ah!" Jin Ni’Er jumped up a meter high and landed, arms wide open, hugging Qin Hao tightly and refusing to come down.

"Where’s the mouse! Where’s the mouse!" Even while hanging onto Qin Hao, Jin Ni’Er was still extremely scared, constantly shouting.

Qin Hao didn’t answer.

Originally so scared that she didn’t think about it, Jin Ni’Er gradually felt something was off as time passed.

If there really was a mouse, would Qin Hao be this calm?

She looked down, the ground was bare, just dirt and stones, where was the mouse?

"You despicable scoundrel! I’m going to bite you!"

Realizing she had been tricked again, Jin Ni’Er was furious, biting Qin Hao’s shoulder like a little kitten.

"Ouch! Are you a dog, Ni’Er? That hurts!"

Qin Hao cried out exaggeratedly.

"Stop it!"

As a young lady, Jin Ni’Er had never experienced such intimate actions before.

"What are you two doing!" An angry voice came.

Both Qin Hao and Jin Ni’Er looked over; Jin Kui stood not far away, full of anger.

"Brother Kui!" Jin Ni’Er was startled, pushing Qin Hao hard and fell off him.

Then, she excitedly ran to Jin Kui and asked, "Brother Kui, what are you doing here!"

"Hmph! I found you using the magic smoke Grandpa gave!"

Jin Kui held a burning incense, which was emitting smoke that drifted towards Jin Ni’Er.

Not far away, Qin Hao nodded secretly, it seemed Old Man Jin had indeed prepared some things for his descendants.

Only the problem was, why didn’t he prepare anything for himself?

"Brother Kui! I knew you’re the best! You came to find me first!"

Jin Ni’Er was very happy, holding Jin Kui’s sleeve and swinging it.

Normally, under his sister’s teasing, Jin Kui would be pleased.

But today, he was very angry, and with a stern face said, "Ni’Er, what exactly were you doing just now?"

Before Jin Ni’Er could answer, Qin Hao came over, righteously proclaiming, "Ni’Er got scratched by a branch, I was healing her!"

Scratched?

Jin Kui looked over Jin Ni’Er with suspicion, found no injury on her, and angrily asked, "Healing? Where’s Ni’Er’s injury! Moreover, do you have to be all huggy and lovey-dovey to heal?"

"Ahem! This is a self-invented healing method, please don’t tell anyone."

Qin Hao said with a serious face.

"Get lost!"

Jin Kui erupted in anger, shouting through gritted teeth, "I challenge you to a duel!"

"Brother Kui!"

Jin Ni’Er grabbed Jin Kui, nervously shaking her head, "Don’t be like this... Grandpa wanted us to cooperate..."

"Cooperate! This perverted trash is worthy to cooperate with me?"

Jin Kui laughed angrily, questioning, "And you, Ni’Er, you said you’d stand with me against this trash, why are you stopping me!"

"I just don’t want you guys to fight internally..."

Jin Ni’Er lowered her head, saying somewhat embarrassedly.

"I’ve never been on the same side as this trash! What internal strife are you talking about!"

Jin Kui seemed to reach his utmost anger, shouting, "Sister, if you stop me again, we’ll become estranged!"

He was really mad; if Jin Ni’Er stayed indifferent, it would be fine.

But her interference made Jin Kui feel like he was being cuckolded.

After all, she’s his own sister?

Why on earth was she siding with Qin Hao?

Jin Ni’Er was at a loss, and just then, Qin Hao cleared his throat, "Cough cough, Ni’Er, thank you for your concern for me..."

Jin Ni’Er was already emotionally unstable; hearing Qin Hao speak like that, she angrily shouted, "Qin Hao! Why are you so bad! Why can’t you be normal!"

"Actually, I hate you too! You’re mediocre but love to show off! I’ve decided, I’ll be with Brother Kui and not cooperate with you anymore!"

With that, Jin Ni’Er pulled Jin Kui to leave, "Brother Kui, let’s not waste time with this jerk."

"Hmph!"

Seeing this, Jin Kui didn’t bother Qin Hao anymore, but coldly stated, "Don’t let me run into you again!"

They hadn’t walked ten steps when Qin Hao caught up.

"Why are you following us!"

Jin Ni’Er turned her head, glaring angrily. She actually didn’t want Jin Kui to fight Qin Hao, but the two were like enemies, always clashing together, forcing her to come up with this solution.

"If you two don’t want to hang out with me, can I hang out with you instead?" Qin Hao asked, unfazed, with a blink of an eye.

"You want to join us?" Jin Ni’Er was stunned; even after all this, this guy still wanted to be with us?

She knew that Qin Hao felt troubled too. Before entering the Secret Realm, at the dinner table, he had sincerely promised Master Jin to protect these two Jin Family descendants well.

If anything happened to Jin Ni’Er and Jin Kui, Qin Hao would be seen as breaking his word.

So, to keep his promise, he could only shamelessly stick around.

"Sigh, what can I say, I’m a real man of noble character," Qin Hao thought proudly to himself.

"It’s not impossible to let you follow us! Call me ’Big Brother’ and I’ll let you tag along!"

Qin Hao’s offer piqued Jin Kui’s interest, he said proudly.

He thought Qin Hao would refuse, but to his surprise, Qin Hao called out without hesitation, "Big Brother!"

"Pfft!"

Jin Ni’Er almost fell to the ground in shock.

Just because he asked you to call, you did? Where’s your shame, you shameless scoundrel?

Did a dog eat it!
