Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 565 Keeping a Canary in Captivity (44)

After saying that, the two turned and went back to the hospital, leaving their younger siblings standing there, staring at each other in bewilderment.

The younger brother hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Should we go back?"

The younger sister gritted her teeth: "I'm not going back. If you want to go back, go back yourself."

She refused to believe that Xiao Yun would dare not give her living expenses.

Even if he doesn't give it to her, she won't ignore it once her mother wakes up.

Thinking of this, the younger sister quickly walked out of the hospital, preparing to go home.

But after walking a distance, he didn't see his younger brother following.

She looked back and saw her younger brother still standing there, looking back into the hospital.

Realizing her brother was about to give in, the sister's unease was amplified, and she yelled at him, "Are you coming or not?!"

After thinking for a while, the younger brother walked up to her and said, "What if my older brother really decides not to give us living expenses in the future... You know, I'm going to work in e-sports after I finish my college entrance exams. There's no income in this industry until I make a name for myself. If he cuts off my living expenses, I won't be able to do this job."

younger sister:"……"

“You’ll still need him to pay your tuition and living expenses for four years of university, right? Why don’t we go back and say a few kind words to him? You know his personality; he won’t hold it against us.”

Yan Zhen and Xiao Yun waited outside the operating room for more than ten minutes before Xiao Yun's younger brother and sister slowly returned from outside.

The two walked up to Xiao Yun with dejected expressions, pushing and shoving each other, until finally the younger sister spoke first.

With a stern face, she didn't look at Xiao Yun and abruptly said, "We were too impulsive just now."

Xiao Yun frowned, about to speak, when Yan Zhen tugged at his arm, and he immediately shut up.

Yan Zhen asked, "Who are you talking to?"

"...with him."

"Who is he?"

"My brother." The younger sister was already feeling aggrieved by pleading and speaking softly, but now that Xiao Yun remained silent while this unfamiliar old woman kept intervening, she became impatient. "Who are you? We're family, what right do you have to interrupt?"

Yan Zhen looked at her fierce but cowardly appearance and sneered, "Who I am is not important. You just need to know that if I don't agree, you can forget about getting another penny from your brother."

The younger sister was taken aback. She looked at Yan Zhen, then at Xiao Yun, who remained silent but tacitly agreed with Yan Zhen's words. She belatedly realized that she had a guess about the relationship between the two.

Her gaze towards Xiao Yun immediately became even more contemptuous and disdainful: "The law stipulates that as the eldest brother, you have the responsibility and obligation to support your underage younger siblings. If you don't give me living expenses or let me go to school, I can sue you!"

Yan Zhen was amused: "Sue him? Then I advise you to do it as soon as possible, preferably contact a lawyer to file a lawsuit overnight, since the legal process takes a long time."

Putting aside the fact that your parents are still alive and whether your brother has an obligation to support you, just consider that you are now seventeen years old. During the lawsuit, your brother used various reasons to delay the court hearing for several months until you turn eighteen and become an adult. In that case, the so-called responsibility of support will no longer exist.

Furthermore, he could easily refuse to pay your living expenses during this time of litigation. If you, a senior in high school, are cut off from your allowance, how will you have the energy to study and prepare for your exams? Will you even be able to get into university?

“You…” The younger sister, having her weakness exposed, turned ashen-faced.

"Your brother provides for all your needs, and now you turn around and call him a dog, begging for a living. Who spoiled you all?" Yan Zhen said coldly. "Now, apologize to your brother!"

My sister was so angry that she was breathing rapidly, her eyes reddened, and tears slowly welled up in her eyes.

After holding it in for a while, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

While crying, she accused, "You're a woman too, why are you making things so difficult for me! I just want to go to university and get far away from this awful family, otherwise my life will be ruined... I just want to leave this family that has no money and no love, is that wrong?"

Yan Zhen didn't respond, but just watched her cry with her arms crossed.

Only after his younger sister had finished crying did Yan Zhen ask, "Your family of origin is terrible. Is all of this your fault, brother?"

younger sister:"……"

“You hate your parents for being incompetent, for not being able to provide any help for your life and instead dragging you down, for having no money or love in this family, and for wanting to go to university to escape, that’s fine, but why do you also resent your brother?”

He has always been there to protect your lives. Without him, you would be the ones who went out to work in your teens, begging for a living like dogs!

You eat and take things home, then turn around and complain about the cook smelling of cooking oil. Is this the kind of worldview you've developed after more than ten years of schooling?

The younger brother and sister were too scared to say a word after being scolded.

“Apologize to your brother,” Yan Zhen said. “Whether it’s sincere or not, I must hear an apology from you today, or you can forget about getting a single penny from your brother in the future. I mean what I say.”

Seeing that Yan Zhen's expression didn't seem to be trying to scare them, the two weighed their options for a while before looking at Xiao Yun.

"Brother, I'm sorry."

"Brother, I'm sorry, we took it all too for granted."

Xiao Yun remained silent for a while, then sighed softly, "Never mind."

The sigh was filled with deep disappointment, and his younger siblings immediately looked up at him anxiously.

"Big brother..."

“I used to think that you were young and didn’t understand, so no matter how much you looked down on me and my profession, I didn’t take it to heart. But today I’ve realized a fact: from the moment you started to look down on me, we could no longer get along as equally as other brothers and sisters.”

Don't worry, your living expenses and tuition fees will still be deposited into your accounts regularly until you graduate from university. But that's all; you can go now.

Upon hearing this, a flicker of panic crossed the younger sister's eyes: "Big brother..."

Xiao Yun turned his back, using his actions to refuse to continue the topic.

The younger siblings instinctively looked at Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.

After the two left, Yan Zhen thought Xiao Yun would be sad and depressed, but unexpectedly, he looked much more relaxed.

Seeing Yan Zhen staring at him, Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Do you think I'm being unhelpful again?"

Yan Zhen didn't hide his thoughts: "Yes."

She had already laid the groundwork for Xiao Yun, so he could throw a tantrum and let those two ingrates see who the real king was, so they wouldn't dare to spout nonsense in front of him again.

But he casually brushed the matter aside.

“I don’t blame them,” Xiao Yun said. “Xiao Qing used to be my sister. When she was little, she idolized me. Every time a show I was in as an extra aired, she would sit in front of the TV for hours just to see me appear for a few seconds. When she was in kindergarten, she would happily brag to her classmates that her brother was a star.”

"And then?" Yan Zhen asked. "How did she end up looking like this?"
