Chapter 369: It’s Like What You See. My Xiao Jian
Standing beside Yun Jian, Yun Yi’s taller and bigger build contrasted against Yun Jian’s petite frame. He turned to look at his sister, the frown between his brows so deep that it could kill a fly by trapping it in his folds.
Leaving the warm venue with the heater, the cool breeze of winter blew like piercing needles, prickling Yun Jian who wore only an evening dress baring her arms and shoulders without a jacket.
The winter wind was the worst out of four seasons, especially when Yun Jian’s down jacket was seized by Song Shanshan’s clique—although, Yun Jian would not take the jacket back even if they did not want it.
“Xiao Jian, are you cold?” Yun Yi was shaking in the cold, but he was not in a hurry to ask Yun Jian about New Cruise, concerned about her wellbeing instead.
“I’m not, ge.” It was frosty but Yun Jian was not wary of the cold. In her past life, she had gone for a mission in a subzero region and she had only worn a sleeveless jacket then, nearly freezing into an icicle, but she managed to overcome it and smoothly completed the mission.
Therefore, the current temperature was nothing to Yun Jian.
Wearing only a suit without any outerwear, Yun Yi was shivering in the cold even though he planned to remove his suit jacket to drape it on Yun Jian. Before he could, there was a flash in front of him—a man who was as tall as him but with more pronounced eyes and sculpted features appeared before his younger sister.
Si Yi pulled a cotton coat over Yun Jian. Looking at the pink adorning her cheeks due to the freezing temperature yet she was unaware of it, Si Yi felt a pinch on his heart as he asked, “Why didn’t you bring a jacket?”
Yun Yi felt his eyes twitch looking at Si Yi who had made a sudden appearance.
He was not unfamiliar with him, since they were staying under the same roof, but he had never seen Si Yi being so gentle to Yun Jian like... they were a couple in love.
“Why are you here?” Looking up, Yun Jian adjusted the men’s outerwear around her and asked Si Yi.
“I was passing by,” Si Yi lied unabashedly. He was not going to tell her that he had followed her here.
In spite of it, Si Yi would not attend the fancy dinner. He disliked the atmosphere.
“Let me send you guys home.” Si Yi took a step back, taking his spot beside Yun Jian, before holding her hand and making his way to where the car was parked.
“Hold on!” Yun Yi called out.
“You guys are?” Yun Yi asked with a frown, his gaze locked on Si Yi’s grasp around Yun Jian’s hand.
Yun Jian was caught off guard, not expecting Si Yi to grab her hand in front of her brother, and quickly pulled her hand back.
Si Yi was not in a hurry to take her hand again. With an arch of his brow, there was an added sense of masculinity when the streetlight spilled on the side of his perfect proportions.
“It’s like what you see,” Si Yi said with a smirk, spreading his arms roguishly at Yun Yi.
“You...” Yun Yi’s eyes bulged.
He had never thought that his younger sister whom he had protected since birth was swept away by Si Yi just like that—when did it happen? Why did he not know anything?!
“Did you take advantage of my Xiao Jian!” Rage suddenly rose within Yun Yi as he yanked Si Yi’s collar, asking through clenched jaws as he pushed his head in front of the young man.
