te coat. I saw the black shadow's hem trailing down to about knee-length. Was this doctor Coming after the patientHe pounced on the fleeing shadow in front of him. The shadow struggled desperately, a...I saw that my senior brother's eyes lit up - I have any troubles, all come to my senior brother to solve, this time is no exception.

He grabbed my wrist, asking anxiously, "Are you alright Have you been treated badly since leaving home"

"It's no big deal to suffer a little grievance! Senior Brother Jun, I have something important to tell you—" I stamped my foot anxiously.

"Sigh," the elder brother said helplessly, shaking his head. "Alright, alright, I surrender to you. As long as you're safe and sound, nothing else matters more than that. Come in, sit down, and tell me everything."

My older sister stood in the hallway, staring at me blankly. I suddenly felt a pang of sadness in my heart and hurried to her side, asking, "Sister, what's wrong Are you worried about Dad and Mom"

Her expression was tinged with sadness, her eyes flickering with a hint of tears — had she been crying

"It's nothing... I'm fine." She forced a smile and changed the subject, "Xiao Luo, why do you look so dishevelled You're covered in dust..."

She seemed unwilling to discuss private matters here, and I didn't want to press her further. I followed Junior Master Jun towards his small courtyard.

After dinner at home, everyone usually goes back to their own courtyards. If there are no guests in the front hall, people rarely sit and chat idly. It's inconvenient with cold tea and cups. If they do chat about something, it's mostly in their respective living quarters.

We arrived at my eldest brother's courtyard. My sister poured us tea and then got up to leave.

"Hey, sis, why don't you sit down so we can discuss this together What's the rush to leave" I looked at her in bewilderment.

My sister pursed her lips and poked my forehead: “You’re all dirty. I’m going to your room first to turn on the air conditioner and find some clean clothes for you. You can wash up later.”

"No need to rush this moment, after all, I'm covered in dirt anyway. As long as you, Shixiong, don't mind my mess, that's all that matters!" After all, I'm sitting in his room.

My senior brother glared at me: "You have such thick skin. You repeatedly worried us, not even a single apology, and you sit there so calmly. If it weren't for your senior sister leaving a letter before she left home, we would have called the police."

"I don't want to worry you guys, but Senior Sister and Ms. Xue teamed up to secretly take me away. I can't contact you! I was locked in an old house, and I didn't know what was happening outside. It wasn't until I got out that I realized how serious this earthquake was…"

"My senior brother nodded, "It's very serious. The hospital under the master's name has sent a medical team, but because of his wife's matter, the master is worried and hasn't gone with them, claiming he has guests at home who are ill. I'm afraid he has already fallen asleep... He hasn't had a good night's sleep for days. We only managed to force him to lie down before you came back... If it's not urgent, please don't disturb him, let's talk tomorrow."

"Yes, yes, there's something important!" I blurted out. "I need to raise money for disaster relief…"

My senior brother glared at me with a look of frustration, and said, “Little junior sister, use your head and think carefully. You alone, our family alone, how many people can we save Dozens or hundreds is no problem, but tens of thousands How could you possibly save them”

"We have plenty of medicinal herbs at home, and so much money in the bank. Why can't we donate some" I looked at Jun Senior Brother with a pleading expression.

"What do you want to do"

"The members of the Witch clan are still gathering supplies, I have to buy them up quickly, especially food! How can they possibly feed so many people"

"Where was Mu Wanchen also affected"

"Um... it's serious, almost everyone is going back to their homes, and there's still fighting. I need to come back and arrange supplies, then I have to rush back—"

The senior brother closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, then turned his head and sighed: "How much do you need"

"How many are there I don't know the situation at home…"

"Master's savings amount to a little over eight figures. That money belongs to him; no one else can touch it... I have fifty million here. If you want it, take it."

I was dumbfounded. Fifty million My eldest brother is so rich... No, no, no, he's just giving it away so easily!

"Really, you're giving it to me" I couldn't quite believe it.

Big Brother frowned and said, "Am I not allowed to joke with you If you really need money, don't touch the family funds. These are your dowries, use mine instead."

I hadn't had a chance to thank her yet, when my sister suddenly pulled away from me and walked out on her own.

"Huh Sis—" My brain went blank for a second before I realized my sister was angry!

Is my senior sister upset with me for being so open like this

“…Big brother, you need to give me your money. Shouldn’t I tell my sister…”

"Why say it" Jun Shixiong frowned slightly.

I don't believe that Jun, your senior brother, is so low in EQ. If he were low in EQ, he wouldn't have made so much money.

And his car was worth thirty million yuan, plus those savings, at only twenty-something years old, he already had a net worth of over one hundred million yuan. So capable and young, handsome and dashing, and then there's the fact that...

It seemed that from a young age, everyone tacitly assumed they would be a loving couple in the future.

But if you think about it carefully, Big Brother never promised anything, or never explicitly stated his position.

My sister... Couldn't she be getting angry because she thinks it's unrequited love

"Big brother, did you have an argument with my sister..." I asked softly.

Junior Brother pondered for a moment, letting out a faint sigh: "Because of you and Mu Wanchen's situation, she started to develop some inexplicable feelings. I'm too lazy to cater to these little quirks."

"Huh What does this have to do with me and Mu Wanchen" I didn't understand.

She saw Mu Wanchen catering to you in every way, feeling envious. She probably hoped that I could do the same for her, but...I can't.

"The disciple chuckled self-deprecatingly. 'How could I possibly be the kind of person who always does what pleases women Besides, Junior Sister Yue has a soft and enduring nature, finding it difficult to make major decisions. Why would I need to consult her on everything' "

"But you should know she likes you a lot, right Anyone can see that. Maybe she feels like when something big happens, you should tell her about it. Even if it's not to discuss it, just let her know. You just threw this much money at me! My sister would be jealous!" I said plainly.

"My fellow disciple shook his head. 'It's not that. It's that she's been too sensitive lately, it's not something that can be explained in a word or two... Besides needing money, what else do you need'"

He didn't want to discuss these matters concerning emotions with me, so he steered the conversation back to reality.

"Oh, oh, I also need a secret place to settle these people! Probably not many at first, around fifty or sixty thousand."

"Fifty to sixty thousand Not a lot" Jun Shidi stared at me. "Wake up, little junior sister! In this society, there are eyes everywhere, everyone has a phone. Where can you hide fifty to sixty thousand people Even if you hid in the deep mountains and old forests, the state could find out immediately! Do you want to be arrested by the intelligence department for interrogation"

"That... getting them in by helicopter is unrealistic. I think I'll use the underworld's secret paths to get them out—"

"The senior brother waved his hand and said, “This is something no one can do anything about. You’d better give up this idea! This isn't a matter that money can solve—"

As soon as he finished speaking, a low and gravelly voice came from the entrance of the small courtyard behind me: “Don’t talk about money with me, it just so happens that I can return your favor…”rk magic to refine souls."The wood comes from the earth but is nourished by sunlight and moonlight.
