In the early morning, before Qin Xuan, who had just gotten out of bed, could even dress, the bedroom door was shoved open with a bang.
Qin Lin, like a tiger descending a mountain, rushed in. She saw Qin Xuan, wearing only his underwear, without the slightest hint of shyness.
"Brother, brother!"
Qin Xuan's face darkened.
"You little brat, what kind of behavior is this? Don't you know to knock? Seeing me shirtless, you didn't even excuse yourself. I'm your brother!"
Qin Lin waved her hand dismissively.
"It's a small matter. We're not related by blood anyway, so what if you saw? You wouldn't expect me to see you back, would you?" As she said this, Qin Lin quickly pretended to shrink her clothes, looking at Qin Xuan as if he were a thief.
"Let me tell you, I'm still a young girl, and I won't be an adult for a few more months. You're not allowed to have any ideas about me!"
Qin Xuan's forehead was covered in dark lines. If it were a younger brother, he would have already spanked him soundly.
He couldn't bear to scold Qin Lin, as it would hurt his heart. He also dared not hit her, as that would hurt even more.
Qin Xuan then grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist. He then lifted Qin Lin up like a little chick and carried her out the door.
Arriving downstairs, Qin Xuan tossed Qin Lin onto the sofa. Then, hands on his hips, he said with a stern expression,
"From now on, when you enter my room, you have to knock. Do you hear me?"
Qin Lin stuck out her tongue, made a face, and then pointed behind Qin Xuan, letting out a mischievous laugh.
Qin Xuan turned around and froze.
Ren Qixiang!
Why was she here?
That brat Qin Lin, why didn't she say earlier that there was a guest at home? He had come down without even being fully dressed.
Actually, it couldn't be entirely blamed on Qin Lin. She had originally come to wake Qin Xuan up because there was a guest. Before she could even speak, Qin Xuan had already dragged her out.
At this moment, Qin Xuan was bare-chested, and only wearing a towel around his lower body. He was essentially undressed.
Ren Qixiang's gaze was fixed on Qin Xuan, and she was also a bit taken aback. She hadn't expected Qin Xuan to receive a guest in such a state.
However, her gaze was more focused on Qin Xuan's abs.
Standard and perfect eight-pack abs, and biceps that could serve as a stool for her...
So... so handsome!
Ren Qixiang had only seen muscular men online before, but those people's muscles were clearly excessive, thick and large, and not attractive at all.
But Qin Xuan's muscles were different from those muscular men.
Not too thick, not too thin, just right. His skin wasn't dark either. With his standard East Asian complexion, these muscles were simply incredibly perfect!
If only she could touch them...
Ren Qixiang quickly shook her head, coming back to her senses. What was she thinking? Was she crazy? To actually want to touch a man.
Sensing Ren Qixiang's intense gaze, Qin Xuan suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. He quickly went upstairs to put on some clothes before coming back down.
He walked over to Qin Lin's side and saw her two legs occupying an entire sofa. Qin Xuan slapped her feet away and then sat down beside her.
Qin Lin let out a soft hum, kicked Qin Xuan lightly, and then tucked her delicate feet into Qin Xuan's lap. She then turned her head away, ignoring him.
Seeing that there was a guest, Qin Xuan put her feet down, but Qin Lin pushed them back. Helpless, he had to hold her small feet and gave Ren Qixiang an awkward smile.
"I'm sorry, I've spoiled this girl too much."
Ren Qixiang suppressed a smile.
"It's... it's fine. Your sister is really cute."
Qin Xuan heard this and shot a fierce glance at Qin Lin, whose toes were wriggling in his lap. Then, his gaze shifted back to Ren Qixiang, returning to the main topic.
"Miss Ren, is there something you need from me?"
When asked about the main reason for her visit, Ren Qixiang remembered why she had come to find Qin Xuan. She immediately put on a serious expression and said,
"Qin Xuan, I've come to ask for your help in treating Grandpa Dan's condition."
