Braised Jarred Beef Once Again

"Huh? How can that be?" Wu Yang Jin said.

"Hmph, who told you to call me violent in the first place? This is compensation," Mu Xi said.

Then, he pulled Wu Yang Jin along and they walked quickly.

"Yes, we've arrived, Senior Sister," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Oh, this place is nice, it looks good," Mu Xi said.

"Indeed, when Xie Xie brought us here, we ate a lot."

"Xie Xie? Ah, that's the guy who held a dagger to my neck!" Mu Xi exclaimed in surprise.

"Alright, senior sister, you didn't even consider whose fault it was back then," Wu Yang Jin waved his hand and said.

Then, I pulled back the curtain and went inside. As soon as I entered, I saw Uncle Li fiddling with earthenware pots.

"Hmm? Isn't this Yang Jin? Didn't you come with Xie Xie and the other friends today?" Uncle Li asked.

"Well, Uncle Li, I was thinking of getting out for a walk today, so I came here to have something to eat," Wu Yang Jin replied.

"Okay, um? And who is this?" Uncle Li asked.

"Ah, hello, I am..."

"I'm the Violent Senior Sister," Wu Yang Jin replied.

"Wu Yang Jin!" Mu Xi shouted angrily.

"Just kidding!" Wu Yang Jin said again.

Afterwards, Uncle Li watched the two children making a fuss and then prepared to Braised Jarred Beef.

"Here it is, eat as much as you like!" Uncle Li said, holding a bowl of beef.

"Thank you, Uncle Li," Mu Xi said.

"Thank you, Uncle Li!" Wu Yang Jin said.

"Oh! Mmm! It's so delicious!" Mu Xi said, covering her face with one hand.

"See? I told you it was delicious," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to have such a big appetite," Mu Xi said.

"It's alright, but I didn't eat out often before," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Oh? Why? Are your parents always busy? But I used to be like that, my dad was quite busy back then," Mu Xi said, taking another bite.

"No, no, it's not that. It's that I don't have any parents at all, and I don't even know who my parents are," Wu Yang Jin suddenly said in a low voice.

"Ah... um, I don't know, yes..." Upon hearing this, Mu Xi didn't know what to do with the beef she was eating halfway through, and stammered a bit.

"Oh, Senior Sister, it's alright, don't worry about it. I don't care at all, and I'm even willing to tell you," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Oh, but I'm still a little sorry," Mu Xi said somewhat embarrassedly.

Well, Mu Xi never expected that the other person really didn't have parents. If that's the case, then the other person has basically lived on their own since childhood. And even having a good friend like Tang Wu Lin can't make up for the feeling of not having parents.

"Oh, right, I... I heard you have a younger sister? She..."

"They left, saying they found their family," Wu Yang Jin added.

"Ah... I..." Mu Xi was speechless again.

Unexpectedly, Mu Xi herself thought that after getting to know this junior brother, she felt that he was actually quite nice. She realized that she was wrong back then, and now that they had met, it was a rare opportunity to have a meal together. However, she ended up killing the conversation after only two chats.

"It's alright, Senior Sister, would you like to hear it?" Wu Yang Jin asked.

"Is it okay?" Mu Xi asked with some concern.

"Yes, that's fine. So, as I said, my sister's name is Na'er, she..." Then, Wu Yang Jin recounted the process of their first meeting and their eventual union.

During the narration, Mu Xi listened very attentively. After Wu Yang Jin's explanation, she felt even more that it would have been better not to mention it at all.

Mu Xi could tell that Wu Yang Jin loved his younger sister, Na'er, very much, and even though he knew he might be able to find her again after she left, he still couldn't help feeling a sense of loss.

After hearing the story, Mu Xi felt a little sad. She thought about what she would do if it were her own situation. Not to mention a younger sister, she did want a younger brother. What would she do if he suddenly disappeared?

"Senior sister, that's how it went," Wu Yang Jin concluded.

"Yang... Yang Jin, Senior Sister, I apologize to you. I'm really sorry," Mu Xi said.

"Hey? No way, Senior Sister. Although Wulin and I were a little angry at the time, after we got to know each other better, I realized that you're actually quite nice," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Really? Then why do you still call me Violent Senior Sister?" Mu Xi asked.

"Oh, it's nothing..."

"Huh?!" Mu Xi deliberately glared at him and said.

"Just kidding!" Wu Yang Jin replied with a laugh.

After a while, once the two finished eating, Mu Xi had made up her mind and decided to ask Wu Yang Jin the next question.

"Yang Jin, is it okay if I call you that?" Mu Xi said.

"Okay, sure," Wu Yang Jin said.

"After hearing what you said, I was really touched, but there's nothing I can do for you," Mu Xi said.

"It's alright, Senior Sister, really, there's no need," Wu Yang Jin replied.

"Alright, but from now on, you and Tang Wu Lin will be under my protection! Don't worry, I apologize for what happened in the academy, but if anyone dares to bully you in the future, just tell me!" Mu Xi said, patting her chest.

"Yes, thank you, Senior Sister!" Wu Yang Jin said.

"Let's go then, it's time to go back," Mu Xi said.

"Wait a moment, Uncle Li, bring 10 more servings!" Wu Yang Jin called out.

"Huh?! You can still eat?" Mu Xi said in surprise.

"No, three portions are for Xie Xie, Gu Yue, Hu Meier, one for my brother, and the remaining six for Wulin," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Wow... he can really eat that much!" Mu Xi said, somewhat surprised.

Afterwards, the two quickly returned to school and then parted ways, but before that, Wu Yang Jin asked one more question.

"By the way, senior sister, if you want to eat here again next time, you can bring your friends along," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go and support you, Senior Sister. But next time, let's find a chance to bring Wulin along, and the three of us can go together," Mu Xi said.

"Hmm? Great, a gathering of Forging Master!" Wu Yang Jin said.

After that, the two parted ways, and Wu Yang Jin returned to his dormitory.

"Oh! Yang Jin, you actually went to the Braised Jarred Beef Shop!" Tang Wu Lin said after seeing the food.

"I went with my senior sister, Senior Sister Mu Xi," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Huh? Senior Sister? Yang Jin, how come you're suddenly having dinner with Senior Sister?" Tang Wu Lin asked.

"Oh, it was just a coincidence that I ran into him while I was out for a walk to clear my head..."

Just as Wu Yang Jin was about to speak, he felt two gazes.

"Yang Jin... who is Senior Sister?" Gu Yue jumped out, opened the door, and asked.

"Yes, you smell like a woman! Confess!" Hu Meier chimed in.

"Yes, why didn't you invite me? Are you disgusted with me?" Gu Yue asked.
