Chapter 492 – Tattletale

My phone vibrated in my pocket after it received a text.

I took out my phone and Xiao Qin also came over to see what it said.

She completely regarded herself as my girlfriend.

“Hey, I need to have some privacy. If you keep acting this way, don’t blame me when I fire you as my girlfriend.”

Xiao Qin sniffled her nose.

“When you say you’re going to fire me as your girlfriend, does that mean… you’re going to abandon me?”

“That’s right.” I pretended to be more serious and said, “I already said you could only be my temporary secret girlfriend, but you’ve become more presumptuous as of late. Are you not afraid of me anymore because you have the triads backing you?”

My logic was really strange because Xiao Qin already had the triads backing her for a while, but I only found out recently.

“If… Ye Lin classmate doesn’t like me getting involved with the triads, then I’ll cut off the relationship with them right away. I’ll never meet the people from my dad’s side anymore, is that okay?”

She had an eager and inquiring look in her eyes.

I might be opposed to having connections with the triads, but it’s not like Xiao Qin can choose her own father. Huo ZhenBang might pass away at any time due to his AIDS, so it would be sad if his only daughter also cut off her relationship with him.

I couldn’t bear it, so I didn’t push Xiao Qin any further.

I suddenly wanted to ask Xiao Qin if she knew she had a half-brother and that he died in a mob fight.

“Xiao Qin, do you know why Uncle Long and the others refer to you as the second miss?”

“Maybe because Uncle has an older cousin, I’m not sure either. I got brought over here when I was still really young, so I don’t know all the relatives from my dad’s side of the family.”

As expected, Xiao Qin doesn’t know about her half-brother. Huo ZhenBang didn’t have any reason to let Auntie Ren and her daughter know about his son. Even if Auntie Ren found out, she doesn’t have any reason to tell Xiao Qin.

Which means Xiao Qin never knew about his brother and about how he’s already gone.

I had complex feeling and wasn’t sure if it was right to keep her in the dark.

That dancer’s son might take his anger out on Xiao Qin because Auntie Ren married Huo ZhenBang and stole his mother’s status. If the two of them knew each other, they might not even be on good terms.

There’s also the fact that Xiao Qin has androphobia.

But I felt it was unfair to Xiao Qin that her brother, who should have been in her world, disappeared without a trace.

They might not have the same parents, but aren’t Ai Mi and I close?

Since the relationship between Xiao Qin and me has been restricted, then regardless if my dad or Auntie Ren gets married, I will treat Xiao Qin as my younger sister for the time being.

I’ll replace the brother Xiao Qin should have had. The care she should have received from her brother will be carried out by me instead.

If I treat her as my sister, then I won’t be tempted when she says she would ‘take off her clothes as an apology’ at every turn, which means I won’t be castrated by her father.

I only have the confidence to overcome my lust if I treat her as my sister, it was proven effective with Ai Mi.

“Ye Lin classmate, Ye Lin classmate.” Xiao Qin brought me out of my thoughts and back to reality, “What are you thinking about with such a sinister expression, are you thinking about how you’re going to abandon me?”

Who had a sinister expression! I was clearly seriously thinking about our relationship.

Xiao Qin whimpered and tried to put on a pity act.

“Uh… if Ye Lin classmate hates me, it’s fine if you fire me. But just let me know one day beforehand by text.”

“Why do I have to tell you a day beforehand?”

“Uh… I’ll kill myself after I receive the text, that way I can die while I’m still your girlfriend. I’ll choose to die of carbon monoxide poisoning and I’ll make sure to dress myself up. When someone discovers my corpse, they will see my face full of happiness…”

“Stop your delusions! I’m going to get nightmares just thinking about you smiling while committing suicide.”

I’m holding back our relationship because you always keep mentioning suicide. If I get too intimate with you, I’ll get castrated. If I alienate you, then you will commit suicide… it looks like I have no way out.

I guess the best option is to keep you as my sister. Since that’s settled, I want to facilitate the matter between Auntie Ren and my dad.

I finally got a chance to check my texts.

It was… an ad from JD.com. I think I only a bought a mouse from them half a year ago, JD.com has a great memory.

It was advertising a phone for the elderly, something about a gift to show gratitude for your grandparents.

The ad actually gave me a great idea.

Auntie Ren’s dad, gramps Ren who taught me Yin Yang Sanshou, gave me his phone number before.

I could always call him if I ran into any problems practicing Yin Yang Sanshou, but now I found another use for it!

It’s to tattletale! I could tell gramps Ren that his daughter was pregnant. That the man proposed, but Auntie Ren rejected him and was planning on getting an abortion.

How would gramps Ren react? I know my grandparents pressured my dad to get remarried while waving around a cleaver, so gramps Ren must also want Auntie Ren to find another home.

There was no time to lose. Autnie Ren already went to a gynecologist, so if I don’t tell gramps, then my future brother (or sister) will lose their life.

I said something came up and ran out of Xiao Qin’s home. Nothing Xiao Qin said to convince me to stay worked. I also told her she couldn’t follow me or I would fire her.

I gave gramps Ren a call when I left the neighborhood.

“Who is it?” Gramps Ren answered impatiently, “Who’s calling?”

I quickly acted respectfully since I always acted like that in front of gramps Ren since he was an elder.

“Gramps, it’s been a while. I’m Xiao Ye Zi, the one who learned Yin Yang Sanshou from you.”

“Oh, it’s you.” Gramps Ren snorted, “I saw the video where you fought with the panty thief. It was quite popular for a period of time.”

Huh, gramps saw that video too? What a hip grandpa! Since gramps uses an iPhone and is the current top scorer on Fruit Ninja in our city’s martial arts association, then it’s not strange for him to watch online videos.

“Gramps, it’s… nothing. I was only able to defeat that taekwondo expert with your teachings.”

“Of course. If Yin Yang Sanshou can’t even beat taekwondo, then it wouldn’t be a top martial art. It’s a good thing you didn’t embarrass me.”

That was close. It turns out gramps Ren only cares if I won, but wasn’t interested in the fact we were wearing underwear and stockings over our heads.

I got onto the main subject after a few polite words.

“Actually, gramps, I wasn’t purposely trying to find out your family name, but I got acquainted with your daughter, Auntie Ren, by chance and also did a dojo challenge with her…”

“Ah, so did you guys win?”

As expected, he only cares if we won and didn’t ask how I found out his family name.

“I, I guess we won. The owner didn’t personally fight, but Auntie Ren beat one of the masters, and I beat one of the students…”

To be more accurate, it was a female student. She was also the daughter of one of my dad’s classmate.

After listening to our fight, although I couldn’t see, I could imagine the gramps Ren stroking long eard on the other side of the phone, very proud of his daughter and disciple’s (?) victory.

“Xiao Ye Zi, did you call me to report that?”

“No, actually, there’s something else. It’s about your daughter, but I’m not sure if I should say it as a junior.”

“Tell me, what is it. My daughter always makes me worry, what stupid things has she done again?”

I hesitated for a while and said quietly: “Gramps, Auntie Ren… she… she’s pregnant.”

“What?” Gramps was both surprised and angry, “Who did it?! How do you know?”

“Uh…” I thought about it for a bit and decided to tell the truth, “Actually, the person who impregnated Auntie Ren was my dad…”

Gramps Ren was angry and stayed silent for awhile before he said: “What’s your dad’s name?”

“My dad is Ye YuanFeng and I’m Ye Lin.”

I reported the truth to express my sincerity.

“Okay, okay, okay. You and your father are quite bold, does your mother know?”

I then realized gramps Ren might not know I’m from a single-parent family and might believe my dad and Auntie Ren had an affair.

“Gramps, please calm down, my dad isn’t a bad person. He got divorced 14 years ago and after he had the incident with Auntie Ren, he even bought a ring and proposed, but unfortunately he was rejected.”

“Eh, so that’s what happened. Does that mean your dad brought you up by himself?”

I took the chance to exaggerate my dad’s hard work over the years.

After gramps Ren learned my dad used to be a university professor and was currently running a store (online stores are also considered stores), and the reason for Auntie Ren’s accidental pregnancy was due to Auntie Ren’s drunkenness, gramps Ren gradually became interested, and even laughed from time to time.

“So they lived in the same hotel because of a quarantine? It’s preposterous, but it’s like a chance bestowed by the heavens. I always said a woman should get married and settle down, then properly fulfill their roles.”

I hurried to agree: “That’s right. I approve their marriage, but it’s a shame…”

“What’s a shame?”

“It’s a shame Auntie Ren is going to abort her baby. She’s already seeing a gynecologist right now.”
