The Fake Heiress and Her Five Villainous Brothers-Chapter 129: Continuation of the Book

Of all people, Yuan Yong was the most unhappy.

Knowing that his eldest brother Yuan Ao was going out, he stood guard outside his sister's door from 3 AM, and as soon as he heard her wake up, he knocked and invited her to the Firefly Park, with the aim of getting first dibs on her, preventing others from doing so.

It was clearly him who came first, so others shouldn't even be present, but since his sister had said so, what could he do?

He could only listen to his sister.

His second brother Yuan Fa glanced at his watch and said, "It's getting late, let's go!"

He walked over to Yuan Luoyi's side, grabbing her little hand to pull her along.

Yuan Yong stopped him, "Wait, how do we allocate the time today?"

Yuan Fa said, "In the morning, I'll take her for a tour around the university. In the afternoon, Yuan Si will take an hour to bring her to the amusement park. The fireflies only come out at night, so I'll give you an hour in the evening. As for Yuan Rui, we won't allocate him separate time."

After saying that, Yuan Fa looked at Yuan Rui, "You don't have any objections, do you?"

How could Yuan Rui dare to object? He hurriedly said, "No, no! Let's follow what second brother says!"

The group left the room.

Yuan Luoyi was still somewhat happy. After starting elementary school, she had a lot of homework, and Yuan's Father was very strict with her, not allowing her to go out and play if she didn't finish it.

As they walked to the hallway on the first floor, Yuan Fa suddenly stopped, staring out the window, "Oh no, Father is back!"

Following his gaze, Yuan Luoyi saw that Yuan's Father had already reached the house entrance. He looked unhappy, with a grim face, taking large strides like a shooting star, and the servants around him didn't dare approach him.

Yuan Luoyi's heart sank. Her weekend trip was about to be ruined. Yuan's Father would grab her like a briefcase under his arm and send her back to her room to do homework.

As for her brothers, they would get beaten up, with punches that could cause brain concussions. After years of this, the fear of their father had become a conditioned reflex. If her brothers woke up in the middle of the night, it was most likely from dreaming about Yuan's Father beating them.

Yuan Fa shouted, "Quick, hide!"

The group rushed into the nearest room, where bookshelves reached the ceiling, filled with all kinds of books and newspapers.

Yuan Fa said, "Not good! This is the study! Let's find another room!"

But it was too late. Yuan Luoyi could already hear Yuan's Father's footsteps...

"Creak!"

The door was pushed open, and Yuan's Father entered the study. As soon as he set foot inside, he frowned, his nostrils flaring in disgust a few times.

Something was off. The servants usually burned agarwood to scent the study, but today there was an additional whiff of a barbarian's scent in the air.

Yuan's Father's instincts were filled with strong aversion, suddenly recalling the time when those wretched creatures broke into his study and smashed his collectibles.

He scanned the room but didn't see his sons.

Good, no need to fetch the hunting rifle.

As a middle-aged man in marriage, Yuan's Father had a lowly status, but fortunately, he had a strong inner spirit and a sturdy body that could survive being stabbed over ten times.

He had kept his lush hair and handsome looks, but lost control over the Yuan residence.

All the good places in the house were occupied by Yuan's Mother, and Yuan's Father could only enjoy solitude in this tiny fifty-square-meter study.

He had made it clear to his sons with his iron fists that they must never enter the study, for his fatherly love had its limits.

Thinking rationally, how dare they barge in again and disturb this perfect little world?

Perhaps he was just too tired and imagining things.

He opened the windows for ventilation, lit some new agarwood incense, and sat in the soft armchair, picking up some internal documents from the organization to read.

The international situation was unstable recently, and there were too many things to worry about. He needed to check on the weapon technology developments of his peers.

Just behind a bookshelf less than three meters away from him, his second brother Yuan Fa, fourth brother Yuan Si, and Yuan Luoyi were squeezed into a dark corner, anxiously holding their breath.

Actually, Yuan Luoyi wasn't too panicked, because Yuan's Father allowed her in the study.

When she was little and woke up crying from nightmares, Yuan's Father would hold her in the study and read her the "Research Report on the Rear Seat Defects of the Desert Hawk in Combat" until she fell asleep, with an effect similar to a math class.

But now, she had to consider the safety of her brothers.

Yuan Si's heart was pounding. He was thin and couldn't take beatings well. The last time Yuan's Father hit him, for a moment, he saw their great-grandfather Yuan Hai beckoning him with a gentle smile at the gates of the underworld.

Yuan Si could be certain that if they were discovered by their father, not only would he have to be hospitalized, but his three brothers would be in the neighboring beds, a complete human hell. It would be better to just die.

In desperation, Yuan Si had an idea. He grabbed the skull badge from Yuan Fa's collar and threw it with force towards the distance.

"Bang!"

The badge hit a ceramic teacup, wobbling a few times before falling to the ground, shattering into pieces.

Yuan's Father put down the documents and walked over, looking down at the shattered teacup. It was an ancient kiln-fired piece, quite valuable, which made Yuan's Father feel regretful.

Then, Yuan's Father looked up, his gaze meeting that of his third son, Yuan Yong.

Father and son fell into silence. Yuan's Father didn't move, for he was suppressing his desire to kill his son with his great fatherly love. Yuan Yong also didn't move, because he knew that if he did, he might end up splattered in blood on the spot.

Yuan's Father asked, "Why are you here?"

Yuan Yong said, "I wanted to borrow a book to read."

Yuan's Father asked, "Which one?"

Yuan Yong randomly grabbed one and said, "Umm... this one."

Yuan's Father glanced at it, "That's 'Gone with the Wind' by Margaret Mitchell, a world-famous romance novel. You really want to borrow it to read?"

The two fell silent again. As an anti-social person, Yuan Yong was innately cold, finding it very difficult to understand normal emotions. Love was the ultimate puzzle of life for him, something he couldn't comprehend at all.

However, his extremely high looks and mysterious gentleman demeanor had earned him the adoration of women, who would make eyes at him. But he saw it as unprovoked hostility, angering him for several days.

After being enlightened by friends, Yuan Yong realized his shortcoming, but the arrow was already on the string. He had to deceive his father.

Yuan Yong feigned a deep tone, saying, "Hah, women are like vicious dragons, coiled on mountains of gold, silver, and jewels, still going out to pillage villages. They can never be satisfied. I need to read some books to study them."

The next second, Yuan's Father's mighty fist came swinging, causing Yuan Yong's head to hit the wall, seeing stars as great-grandfather Yuan Hai smiled and invited him to the underworld for tea.

Yuan's Father roared: "Don't repeat what I said, what if your mother hears!"

Just as Yuan Yong was facing a life-threatening crisis, Yuan Fa, Yuan Si, Yuan Rui, and Yuan Luoyi quickly slipped out of the study.

Among the whole family, Yuan's Father beat Yuan Yong most frequently. Yuan Yong had already accumulated rich experience in being beaten. Others firmly believed that he would definitely survive.
