"Shameless!" Ye Qiu, who was tugging at Ye Xiu's collar, couldn't bring himself to do anything. He could only grit his teeth and squeeze out those two words. Chen Guo suddenly empathized with his hateful and helpless expression because she was often put in similar situations by Ye Xiu.

"It seems I haven't taught you enough," Ye Xiu said, his expression unchanged.

"Come home with me!" Ye Qiu gritted his teeth.

"Impossible," Ye Xiu said.

Ye Qiu's gaze was deep and meaningful, as if he was about to unleash some powerful move. Chen Guo continued to watch with anticipation, but the scene just froze like that, with no further development…

"Aren't you tired? Hurry up and let go, no manners," Ye Xiu said, casually swatting. It seemed Ye Qiu's hands had already lost much of their strength, and he was easily swatted away by Ye Xiu.

"That coat of yours looks pretty good?" Ye Xiu, who only had one jacket, began to examine the coat that Ye Qiu had been hanging on his arm, which hadn't even slipped off when he reached out with both hands earlier.

"Impossible!" Ye Qiu resolutely hid the coat behind him.

"Stingy," Ye Xiu said with disdain.

"When have you ever returned anything you took from me?" Ye Qiu said.

"Didn't I return your ID card?"

Ye Qiu was immediately choked, clearly having forgotten that.

Chen Guo quickly raised her hand to apply, "Could you explain the story of the ID card in more detail?"

"Oh… that… back then, I needed to participate in the pro league, so of course, I needed to present valid documents or materials as proof of identity. But although I was old enough at the time, I hadn't gotten an ID card because I ran away from home," Ye Xiu began to explain.

"As a result, this bastard sneaked back home and stole my ID card because he couldn't get his hands on the household registration booklet," Ye Qiu immediately chimed in.

"It was borrowing, didn't I return it to you later?" Ye Xiu said.

"Not saying anything beforehand counts as stealing!"

"I said it later."

"So that's how it was!" Chen Guo said with understanding. This finally explained why Ye Xiu used the name "Ye Qiu" in the professional alliance.

"Yeah, I couldn't exactly make a fake ID, could I?" Ye Xiu said.

Chen Guo broke out in a sweat. It seemed that impersonating someone with someone else's ID and using a fake ID weren't that different, right? Even though they were twin brothers, it was hard to see through.

"Thanks to me, look how famous you are now," Ye Xiu said to Ye Qiu.

"Tch," Ye Qiu coldly expressed his disdain.

"Aren't you worried that your family will suspect and come knocking on your door if you use such a familiar name?" Chen Guo asked.

"If I were to use Ye Xiu, that would be a real hassle. But using Ye Qiu, such a weak, common name, is really nothing special," Ye Xiu said.

"Nonsense! The key is that no one expected you to run away from home just to play games. That's what's really pathetic!" Ye Qiu shouted.

"Oh? So what did you want to do when you wanted to run away from home back then?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Uh… I…" Ye Qiu tried hard to recall.

"Or rather, did you have an ideal back then?" Ye Xiu asked.

"My ideal back then… was to run away from home…" Ye Qiu said.

Sweat… Chen Guo almost spat out the mouthful of drink she had just taken. She suddenly felt sorry for the parents of these two brothers. What kind of family environment was this that made the brothers rush to run away from home? Chen Guo was extremely curious.

"That's the difference between you and me," Ye Xiu said.

"Tch," Ye Qiu habitually expressed his disdain.

"Actually, after I stopped avoiding it, it would have been easy for my family to forcibly take me back. Do you know why they never did that?" Ye Xiu said.

"Why?" Ye Qiu couldn't help but ask.

"Because my ideal is just the game," Ye Xiu said.

"Hmm?" Ye Qiu and Chen Guo were both puzzled.

"Esports is a very youthful profession. At my age, I'm already considered to be in the late stage of my professional career. Even if I persist, it won't last too long. So, the ideal that I'm holding onto will end very early. When that time comes, I'll naturally go back because home is always home. And I'm old enough to take that detour. That's why my family is really letting me stay outside," Ye Xiu said.

"And what about you? You're different. A teenager whose ideal is to run away from home, you're clearly even more rebellious than me. At least I know what I'm doing when I run away. What about you? You're just running away for the sake of running away. Once you're out, will you even think about going back? I don't think so. So, you should just stay at home obediently. Running away from home… do you really think it's a fun thing?" Ye Xiu said.

Ye Qiu was stunned, even forgetting to utter his habitual expression of disdain. Chen Guo was also quite surprised. At this moment, Ye Xiu truly seemed like an older brother, more sensible and perceptive than his younger brother.

"So, go home for the New Year right now. I'll naturally go back when the time comes."

After hearing this sentence, Chen Guo suddenly began to deeply suspect whether Ye Xiu's earlier words were just a super-bluff to try and send Ye Qiu away.

Ye Qiu? After being stunned for a long while, he suddenly smiled and said, "It's not too late to go back tomorrow."

Saying that, he turned to look at Chen Guo, "Boss, is it convenient to stay for one night?"

Chen Guo generously nodded, "It's no problem to stay for as many days as you want."

"Don't add to the chaos," Ye Xiu quickly stepped in to stop her. "Look at the way this guy's still scheming."

"Tch!" Ye Qiu restarted his automatic disdain mode, snorted, and wandered around the first floor of the internet cafe before walking to the staircase and asking, "Is the accommodation upstairs?"

"Yes. I'll take you up," Chen Guo came over to lead the way.

"Thank you," Ye Qiu nodded in thanks. As long as he wasn't talking to Ye Xiu, his demeanor and behavior reflected his excellent manners.

"You're welcome," Chen Guo waved her hand and led Ye Qiu upstairs. Ye Xiu didn't say anything more. After seeing the two of them go upstairs, he shook his head, lit a cigarette, and went to play Glory on the computer.

"This is where you'll be staying," Chen Guo pushed open the suite upstairs and introduced it to Ye Qiu.

"It feels very comfortable!" Ye Qiu praised as soon as he entered the room.

"Right?" Chen Guo responded happily. As the owner of the room, being praised was of course something to be happy about.

"Where does Ye Xiu live?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Uh…" Chen Guo paused, a slightly awkward expression on her face. Ye Xiu's living environment was really a bit embarrassing. As the boss who arranged Ye Xiu's accommodation, she felt a little embarrassed facing Ye Xiu's relative at this moment.

"Over here." Although embarrassed, Chen Guo didn't hide it, pushing open the door to a small storage room on the side, but not forgetting to add, "It's only temporary."

That wasn't exactly a lie. At first, Chen Guo really only intended to temporarily arrange for Ye Xiu to stay here, but Ye Xiu himself didn't care at all and seemed very satisfied with living there, making Chen Guo not very anxious or concerned about the matter.

"Oh, oh!" Ye Qiu responded. He had already seen the entire small storage room at a glance. He didn't have the incredulous expression that Chen Guo had imagined. He seemed very satisfied and happy. In the end, he actually turned back and said with certainty, "Really good."

"Oh?" Chen Guo was slightly surprised, but she quickly reacted. This guy was happy because he saw that his scoundrel brother's living quarters weren't very good, right?

"Where do I live?" Ye Qiu then asked.

"Oh… just stay in my room!" Chen Guo led Ye Qiu out and pointed to her bedroom door.

"Then you?"

"I'll stay next door. The girl over here went home for the New Year and won't be here for the next few days," Chen Guo was of course referring to Tang Rou's room.

"You… all live together?" Ye Qiu looked at the three doors.

"Yes!"

"Won't there be any problems? Living with such a shameless guy? You have to be careful!" Ye Qiu said.

"It's okay," Chen Guo smiled. Although Ye Xiu was a frustrating guy at times, he really couldn't be faulted in this regard. Living with two beautiful women, he had yet to cause any embarrassing incidents.

But, with that guy, even if he caused any embarrassment, he would probably resolve it shamelessly, right? Chen Guo suddenly thought.

"It's a bit inconvenient to stay in a girl's room! Can someone sleep on this sofa?" Ye Qiu said, pointing to the sofa in the living room.

"It doesn't matter!" Chen Guo said.

"Oh, then I'll sleep here!"

"I mean, it doesn't matter if you sleep in my room," Chen Guo said.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just sleep here!" Ye Qiu said, and at the end, he expressed his firm attitude: "I insist."

"Oh, then insist if you want…" Chen Guo didn't try to persuade him much, and finally asked, "Do you have any luggage?"

"None."

"Alright, then rest for a while?" Chen Guo asked.

"No need, no need, I'll go down and see what that guy is up to!" Ye Qiu turned and opened the door, but still, in a ladies-first manner, he asked Chen Guo if she wanted to go out as well.

The two then went downstairs together back to the internet cafe and saw Ye Xiu diligently playing the game.

"All you do is play! You don't clean up the pile of things you bought?" Chen Guo scolded.

"That's right, all you do is play games, how despicable," Ye Qiu stood next to Chen Guo, looking very imposing.

Ye Xiu helplessly looked up, "How should I clean it up?"

Chen Guo randomly pointed, "Use all the useful things!"

Ye Xiu said weakly, "Do you know how many of the things you bought are useful?"

Chen Guo was stunned. She only cared about buying happily, and she couldn't remember what she had bought.

"Talk back! Deduct his salary, Boss!" Ye Qiu incited from the side.

"You should figure out what you bought first!" Ye Xiu said to Chen Guo.

"Even if they're useless, you still have to clean them up!" Chen Guo said, then ran off to research what she had bought.

"Ye Qiu, go help," Ye Xiu said.

"Why don't you go?"

"I'm working."

"You're just playing games…" Ye Qiu muttered, but still went over to help. He really wasn't someone who could sit idly by and be a hands-off shopkeeper.
