Long Ting smiled and said, \u201cSomeone always has to shoulder the burden.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bao Bao is much better off than him; he has so many younger brothers who can help share his worries, while he only has himself. He<\/p>\n

has no close relatives left.<\/p>\n

\u201cLong Ting, do you need to rest? Zhan Chi, take Long Ting to the guest room to rest,\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Yuan asked, not waiting for Long Ting\u2019s answer before having his son take him to rest.<\/p>\n

He got up and said, \u201cI\u2019m going to sleep for a while; I didn\u2019t sleep well last night.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKnowing Bei Bei was coming, my dad was so happy he didn\u2019t sleep all night,\u201d<\/p>\n

Long Ting laughed heartily.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s perfectly normal.<\/p>\n

In the Zhan family, Bei Bei is the apple of everyone\u2019s eye; elders and peers alike dote on her.<\/p>\n

Even they can\u2019t help but spoil her; in his eyes, Bei Bei, like Yan Yan, is his younger sister.<\/p>\n

Zhan Yuan said to his son, \u201cThat\u2019s right, I\u2019m so happy Bei Bei is coming that I can\u2019t sleep. If you were a girl, your mother and I wouldn\u2019t be like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mother isn\u2019t like you. Whether I\u2019m a man or a woman isn\u2019t my choice. You made me a man, and I am; you made me a woman, and I am. Do you<\/p>\n

think I get to choose?\u201d \u201cYou can\u2019t even produce a daughter yourself, and you\u2019re blaming me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Yuan: \u201c\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

He especially liked daughters. Ouyang Ya was a little better, perhaps because the Ouyang family was more masculine than feminine. When a son was born, the Ouyang family was very happy, completely the opposite of the Zhan family.<\/p>\n

Ouyang Ya also doted on Bei Bei, because Bei Bei was the girl that the Zhan family had been hoping for for generations. She knew Bei Bei\u2019s status in the Zhan family, and Ouyang Ya was Bei Bei\u2019s aunt.<\/p>\n

\u201cSixth Uncle Zhan, you guys go and rest. I\u2019m not tired for now. Zhan Chi, I\u2019m going for a walk.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ye Longting said, getting up to go out.<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi also got up, \u201cBrother Ting, do you want me to come with you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSure.\u201dLong Ting didn\u2019t refuse his offer.<\/p>\n

The two went out of the house together.<\/p>\n

Seeing four bodyguards in black standing at the door, Zhan Chi said to one of them, \u201cNinth Sister, you\u2019ve arrived. Why don\u2019t you come inside? It\u2019s very hot outside.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu respectfully replied, \u201cI am the master\u2019s bodyguard; it\u2019s not appropriate for me to come inside.\u201d<\/p>\n

The smile on Long Ting\u2019s face disappeared. His eyes were filled with anger, helplessness, and heartache as he looked at Chu Jiu.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t that he didn\u2019t want to take Chu Jiu inside; it was that this stubborn girl refused to go in.<\/p>\n

Unless all the bodyguards followed him inside, Chu Jiu wouldn\u2019t go in.<\/p>\n

\u201cNinth Sister, in Brother Ting\u2019s heart, you are no different from his sister. Don\u2019t always lower your status.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu\u2019s cold, beautiful face still had that same expression. \u201cThank you, Fifth Young Master Zhan.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNinth Sister, are you thirsty? Would you like to come in and have a glass of water?\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi asked with concern.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you, I\u2019m not thirsty.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi wanted to say something more, but Long Ting had already walked past Chu Jiu, down the steps, and headed towards the backyard.<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu and her three bodyguards instinctively tried to follow.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t follow!\u201d<\/p>\n

Long Ting shouted without turning his head.<\/p>\n

The three bodyguards stopped, but Chu Jiu continued walking, following Long Ting\u2019s steps.<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi quickly followed as well. He said to the three bodyguards, \u201cYou don\u2019t need to worry about Brother Ting\u2019s safety here. Sister Jiu is still with us. Find a shady place to sit.\u201d<\/p>\n

He then took out his phone and called the butler, asking him to bring the bodyguards some food and drinks, and instructed them to sit and rest under a nearby pavilion.<\/p>\n
