In the study.
Kerry Ye peered closely at the pressed design that had not been touched for a long time, as if Xinyou
Qiao was still by his side.
“Knock, knock, knock!” There was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Venus Mu got into the room and sat straightly on the chair before the desk in a bad mood.
Kerry ignored her and folded up the designs gently.
Venus ran her eyes over a part of it and snorted, “Is that your treasures? What a rare opportunity! Why
don’t you show me your masterpiece? It won’t be a token of love between you and certain woman,
right?”
It was completely out of jealousy. Ever since the fact that Kerry was actually Xiaozi was uncovered, she
had been in a terrible mood and left no stone unturned to irritate him.
“What does it matter to you? It’s none of your business anyway.” Kerry opened the drawer to replace
the designs carefully.
Venus smiled with disdain, she rapped the armrest of the chair with her slender snowy fingers, “Huh,
thank God, I don’t want to have something to do with you either.”
Kerry was with a trace of discomfort by hearing her words, “Do you have to say sarcastic words.
Venus?”
“Do I?” She played innocent, cast a glimpse over him and stop talking.
Why is it that the more I look at him the more I dislike him? That pair of blue eyes, especially, reminded
her another pair of purple eyes.
Even now she still couldn’t believe that the same person had such different personalities!
As they stayed in silence, Kevin Ye came in after a knock on the door, sat down and looked at his
brother with expectant eyes.
Kerry still did not intend to say anything. It seemed that he was pondering how to give them an
acceptable explanation.
Finally, he spoke slowly, “I incidentally found my differences from others. For example, I can fetch
objects at a distance, teleport and get small things up, like this.”
Then a pen beside his hand rose and circled in the air following his moving finger.
Venus didn’t find it unusual since she had had seen these tricks while Kevin stared at the scene like a
child with worship and surprise in his eyes.
“But I can’t display them for a long time, because it’s very taxing to use spirit which is like an energy
stone that can not be used once you run out of it. That’s also the reason why I couldn’t save Xinyou
today.” Kerry’s blue eyes turned deep and sorrow, a bit of sadness appeared on his face.
Venus and Kevin stared at each other for a second and said nothing.
Kevin paused and said, “The reason why everyone is not allowed to get into the room downstairs with
hanging bells is that I will exercise my magic there and my eyes will turn purple at the same time…and
that’s it.”
After a brief moment of stillness, Venus couldn’t not help but ask in anger, “Then why do you lie to me?”
“Because I don’t want others to know about this, and I don’t want to be regarded as a…a freak.” Kerry
only just managed to speak out the last word.
Venus pounded on the table and stood up to glare at him, “Well, now that you want to keep it as a
secret, you should have been more cautious after you find that I have knew about it. Then why did you
come up to me repeatedly and deceive me that you are a celestial being? And now don’t you think it’s
quite ridiculous?”
“Ha—“Kevin couldn’t suppress snorting when hearing the lie of “a celestial being”. But soon he turned
his face away and held back his laugh when he saw her piercing eyes.
Kerry looked helpless, “Then what should I say? There is no better explanation except to claim myself
a celestial being since you insist on calling me ghost.”
“Hahaha—“ This time Kevin couldn’t help but burst into laughter, then he was reproached by the others
at the same time,” Get out if you laugh again!”
With his involvement, the topic soon became less serious.
Kevin tried very hard to hold back his laugh and clasped his hands together with apology, “I’m so sorry
but…Ok, Ok, I stop, you guys continue.”
Venus returned to the topic, “What happened later? Why did you pretend to make friend with me and
deceive me since you can train yourself without disturbance from anybody? Is it nice for you to see me
make a fool of myself?”
“I have no intent to do that.” Kerry’s explanation sounded untenable. At first he did want to scare
Venus, but she was rather brave and curious, appearing in that room again and again, thus he
gradually got used to talk with her by the identity of Xiaozi and knew further about her.
After a few deep breaths, Venus pressed down the anger in her mind and said coldly,” Kerry, you don’t
understand how important Xiaozi is to me. I would rather to recognize that he is really disappeared
after that night than to make myself believe that you are the same person, because you don’t deserve
it.”
Having finished the sentence in one breath, Venus slammed the door in exasperation and left.
The brothers stared at each other in the study, and then Kerry asked, “What else do you want to
know?”
“What don’t you tell me for such a long time?” Kevin could not understand why his blood brother kept
this secret.
Kerry pressed his templets,” Kevin, I’ve told you, I don’t want to tell anyone.”
“Then what other skills do you have except those you’ve shown me?” It aroused Kevin’s curiosity
instantly.
“I don’t know. I’m still exploring other potential skills.”
“Oh.” He seemed a bit lost and said, “Why don’t I have that magic power since we’re brother?”
Kerry laughed at his words, “Come on, who knows whether there will be a backlash later? Don’t show
that envy face. By the way, you have come back for a while, have you decided to work in our
company?”
