Chapter 208 Transmigrated as a Stand-in for Five Domineering CEOs (9)
"Let's go."
Shu Xian led him to another apartment building.
Yu Jiang asked softly, "Brother, don't you live in this building?"
"Is it wrong for me to live in that building? Is there a problem?"
It would be pointless to guard against him; even someone as intelligent as Yu Jiang would doubt his memory.
"Oh."
Yu Jiang secretly pursed his lips. His brother was wary of him, but he wasn't a bad person.
"Remember, Building A, eighth floor, room 801, got it?"
Shu Xian said, word by word.
“Brother, I remember.”
He liked his older brother very much, and he remembered everything about him.
"Ah."
After Shu Xian registered his fingerprint to unlock the door, she led him into the house and instructed him, "You'll stay in the room next to mine. I work from Monday to Friday and won't be back until 8 p.m.
"You only need to cook on weekends; you can cook whatever you want to eat during the week."
"I'll transfer 100,000 to you now. This 100,000 is your monthly grocery money, and the rest is your pocket money."
"Okay, brother."
Yu Jiang nodded vigorously; he would be very frugal with his money.
If there's still money left over, his brother will probably praise him.
"Okay, I'm going to sleep now. Will there be lunch when I wake up?"
"Yes, I guarantee I'll complete the mission, brother."
Yu Jiang straightened up and saluted him.
"Alright, stop with the formalities, just relax and make yourself at home."
Shu Xian yawned, turned around, went back to her room, and closed the door.
Yu Jiang happily started exploring on his own, discovering what his brother's house was like.
Although it's not as big as my own home, it feels very cozy.
The house smelled just as nice and pleasant as his brother's clothes. Yu Jiang happily hugged the pillow and sniffed it again.
He will definitely do his best.
He can cook, and I'm so glad that my mother always asked him to learn to cook; it's really come in handy now.
Yu Jiang opened the refrigerator and found no vegetables except for drinks and fruits, so he had to go downstairs to the supermarket to buy some.
My brother's lifestyle is a bit unhealthy; drinking so many beverages is bad for his health.
Cook more vegetables for my brother to help him detox.
"Ding~" The phone rang; it was my older brother calling.
Yu Jiang answered the phone, "What!"
If you don't want to lend him money, fine, he doesn't need it now anyway.
"Have you found a good underpass yet?"
Hearing the sarcasm on the other end of the phone, Yu Jiang snapped, "Don't look down on me! I live at my friend's house, he supports me."
"Which friend? Didn't your father put out 'wanted' notices for all your friends, and not allow anyone to take you in?"
"Don't worry about that, he's a good older brother I just met."
"Heh, don't let your good brother swindle you out of your money and your virtue."
His younger brother isn't very bright, and he's still a little worried that he might marry the wrong person.
"I won't allow you to talk about my brother like that."
"Then tell me, what's his name?"
"I have no idea…"
How old is he? What does he do for a living?
"I...I don't know..."
My brother didn't seem to want to talk about it, and he didn't want to press him for details.
"See, do you think my worries were reasonable?"
Right now, it's best to call his father and have him take him back, to avoid him being scammed.
“That makes sense, but my brother is a good person. Don’t tell the family. If you do, we’ll break off all ties.”
Anyway, he believed his gut feeling was right.
"..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Afraid that he would tell his family, Yu Jiang yelled, "Yu Chi, if you dare tell your family, I'll never forgive you!"
He hung up the phone after saying that, so that no one could disturb his and his brother's lives.
On the other end of the line, Yu Chi stared thoughtfully at the disconnected phone. If he didn't want his family to know, then he would go and see for himself.
What kind of 'brother' could he protect so fiercely, even to the point of yelling at his own brother?
After buying the ingredients, Yu Jiang returned home and began cleaning and preparing them.
Shu Xian was awakened by the aroma; it must smell like porridge!
"Brother, you're awake! Come quick, the food is almost ready."
Yu Jiang added the last bit of chopped scallions and carried the casserole to the dining table.
"Ta-da~ I've made you seafood porridge."
"I want to eat!"
The aroma kept wafting into her nose, making Shu Xian's appetite soar.
"it is good."
Yu Jiang picked up the small bowl and filled it to the brim, also scooping out a lot of other ingredients.
"Brother, please enjoy your meal."
"Yes, thank you, Xiao Yujiang."
At first, Yu Jiang thought he was joking when he mentioned doing laundry and cooking, but he didn't expect that Yu Jiang was actually quite good at cooking.
"good to eat!"
The rice grains, mixed with the sweetness of seafood and perfectly balanced peanut sauce, create a delicious double stimulation for the taste buds.
"As long as my brother is happy."
Yu Jiang smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth.
Yay! My brother loves it! His first time cooking was a success!
Shu Xian quickly finished her bowl and quietly pushed it forward.
"Brother is great, he finished a whole bowl."
Yu Jiang took the porridge and continued to add more vegetables to his bowl, because his brother couldn't do without vegetables.
"Hey, brother, you have to finish your food too."
Shu Xian nodded. This kid is starting to dictate to him now?
However, the porridge tasted very good, and even the vegetables tasted better.
Yu Jiang couldn't resist secretly taking a picture of Shu Xian eating heartily and saving it.
"I'm full. Are you sure you can wash the dishes?"
Shu Xian leaned back in her chair and touched her slightly protruding belly.
"No problem, brother. You go to the living room and watch TV first. I'll take care of things here."
"Ah."
Shu Xian nodded with satisfaction. Yu Jiang was quite sensible.
Shu Xian, leaning back on the sofa, opened her phone to check the message; it was a request sent to him on Wednesday.
Ask him to wear a white shirt to dinner with him in the evening, and to try not to speak, only responding with one or two words.
They only eat vegetables, no meat, and stop eating after a few bites.
It has to be said that these requests on Wednesday are quite close to the character of the protagonist, Yu Chi.
It's just a pity that he can only eat vegetables and not meat. He should eat something at home before going to Wednesday's place. After all, he's a stand-in.
"Yu Jiang, is there any porridge left? I'd like to have some more tonight."
Shu Xian called out.
"Brother, are you going to eat at home tonight? I can make you something else."
He has many recipes he wants to make for his brother.
"Okay, then we'll eat at home tonight."
"I have to leave at 5:30, will I be able to eat by 5:00?"
"No problem, brother."
"Ah."
Shu Xian was in a good mood and suddenly realized that there were quite a few benefits to taking in this kid.
"Brother, do you think I did a great job?"
The boy's eyes sparkled with amusement, his face pleading for praise.
"Yes, it's great, really good."
Shu Xian rubbed his head.
"Will my brother sell me?"
Will it hurt me?
Yu Jiang blinked at him.
"Of course not, you idiot."
"I would never hurt you."
To be honest, he was afraid that Yu Jiang would hurt him.
"Hehe, okay."
Having received an affirmative answer, Yu Jiang slipped back into the kitchen and sent a message to his older brother.
"My brother said he would never hurt me or sell me!"
"You're not allowed to say those things again!"
Yu Chi received Yu Jiang's reply, so it seemed that returning to China was urgent.
