1452: Kiddo brother.

Kiddo brother.

"Who said she wasn't wrong to do that?"  0

The voice of Shin You Jun took everyone off guard, pausing them for a moment. Meanwhile, the young boy took a leisure walk inside the palace as if he had the whole world's time to waste and also make others waste theirs. 

"You Jun, what are you saying? Your sister has come home after this long. This is not the time to play or tease her." Chen Rui said, eyeing her son. Her gaze clearly warning the boy of his words. 

But turning a blind eye to all her warnings, Shin You Jun simply turned to look and talk to Li Xue. "Ma, who said I have the mood to tease her? Definitely not, I got no time for that. What I said was the truth. I was simply stating the facts. She was wrong for whatever she did." 

"You Jun, that's enough." Shin Tingming exhorted but he received only a pretty smile from his son. 

"Father, I know you and Ma lover her a lot, but to favor her you don't have curtain her wrongs." You Jun said as he taunted Li Xue same as a kid would do when treated unfairly. 

When Li Xue saw him like that, she pressed her lips. Maybe this was the first time she had nothing to retort to him. "You Jun, I know I was wrong. But at that moment I was …" 

Before she could say anything to explain, You Jun's eyes widened in surprise as his hands raised to clap. "Whoa! Did I hear it right? Did you just accept your first defeat?" 

Li Xue was wordless. But then again, it wasn't wrong, so giving a thought she nodded, and accepted. "Y-Yeah, but I …" 

"You don't have to hide your defeat with your petty explanations, Elder Sister because explanations are the last dying efforts that people make save themselves from defeat. And I am sure you are not of those types." 

Pursing her lips. Li Xue really wanted to bash the kid. She thought he was there to make her accept her wrong. But she again judged him too highly. How can this boy always be this childish? 

"You Jun, I was wrong. Even though I was angry, I should have thought twice. You are right to say that I behaved wrongly with Ma and Pa. And I should have …"

"I never said that you did wrong doing all that?" Shin You Jun interrupted and his words like that made Li Xue's expression change. 

"Huh?" 

Even Chen Rui and Shin Tingming were confused. At which Shin You Jun further explained. "What you said to Ma and Father was your concern. I never had the habit of poking my nose in other's issues. Then how come I will be interested in your issue with them? Furthermore, if asked for my opinion, even I would agree with you. After all, my niece is too precious. I never favored father's decision of ignoring her and leaving her solely in those hands of your arrogant and careless husband." 

Although Li Xue didn't like how he mentioned Feng Shufen, then again that was not something for the first time. Furthermore, at this moment she was more intrigued to know what was actually going on in the brains of the kid. 

"Then what are you blaming me for?" She asked and at her askance like that Shin You Jun dropped his jaw as if he was not expecting her to take it to be trivial. But Li Xue didn't pay any attention to his trivial. Shrugging her shoulders with 'no idea', she wordlessly gestured to him to speak without overexaggerating it. 

Shin You Jun pursed his lips. "How can you even ot know it? Aren't you older than me? Shouldn't you know how much you have actually tortured this little soul of mine?"

Except for wrinkling her brows at the boy, Li Xue did nothing. Seeing her like that, You Jun further added, "Finally getting an elder sister after nineteen years, I again lost her for all these days. Do you think that was easy? I missed you so much but you even punished me taking the regard of our parents' wrong decision. Do you think that was right?" 

"Also, that was not the all, you were upset with Ma and pa yet it seemed like the whole palace got upset with me instead. No matter with how much positive vibe I came back home, not once did it feel like the air here was welcoming me. Not just Ma was sad here, it felt like all the walls here were upset. Being the youngest in the family, do you think the torment was easy to take?" 

He complained one by one and one, and the more Li Xue heard him the more she felt like laughing. 

Although she believed that it might be not easy for the boy, still the way he was putting all the complains was making her feel different - as if his intention was not to make her feel bad instead, he just wanted to share the situations he faced in the past month. Same like how he used to share her day's happening with her when she used to stay here in the palace. 

Without realizing, Li Xue's lips curled up in a smile, slowly suppressing her laughter. When Shin You Jun saw her like that, his lips pouted and he turned to look at his parents with a complaining look. But Like Li Xue, they were also standing there, trying to suppress their smiles. 

"You guys are really heartless. How can you do this to me? Am I really your son? I …" 

Li Xue couldn't control it any longer. Bursting out subtly, she turned to look at Chen Rui and said, "Ma, in his cries, I almost forgot for what I was actually here. Won't you ask me?" 

She said and seeing her change the topic, Shin You Jun pouted and stared daggers at her. But that was of no avail for the next moment, Li Xue simply walked to hook her arms with her kiddish brother and added, "I came here to specially to enjoy your cooked flavorful dishes with my kiddo brother. I am craving for the taste and also his jovial company."

At just one compliment like that, the whole mood of the young prince was changed. With shiny glitters in his eyes, he asked, "Really?" 

Li Xue smile noting his expression and raised her chin with pride, "What do you think?"
