Douluo Dalu: Qian Renxue's Younger Brother

Bang!

Only a brief moment had passed.

Qian Renxue closed the door and turned to leave with a strange smile on her face.

As she walked away, the sounds of two women arguing erupted from inside the room.

"Ah, you stupid snake! Don't be so rough—ugh!"

"You—you fox spirit, stop pulling—ugh, it's too tight, it's going to break!"

"Stupid snake... stop swinging, it hurts."

"Ah, why are you scratching my butt, you fox spirit?!"

"Ugh! You think I want to? I just don't want my face to be pressed against you!"

"Hurry and think of something, I'm so tired."

"Stop yelling, I'm thinking!"

Inside the room, there was no one in sight, but the voices of the two women echoed from the ceiling.

If you looked up, you would see that both women had been hung up on the beam by Qian Renxue.

The ropes holding them up?

They weren't ropes.

It was their tails—one a snake tail, the other a fox tail—entangled and knotted together on the beam by Qian Renxue.

Dugu Yan hung upside down completely, her face flushed with pain, her clothes disheveled, with her skirt folded over her head.

Meanwhile, Hu Liena was bent over, her body arched in midair, facing Dugu Yan's back, her face red with frustration.

She gripped Dugu Yan's hips, clearly annoyed and regretful.

Had she known it would end up like this, she wouldn't have competed with this maid.

Nor should she have called herself "Miss Nana."

Now, the already biased Miss Xue had hung her up, supposedly to let her "enjoy being on top."

All Hu Liena could do was endure silently, on the verge of tears.

The only consolation was that she had someone to share her misery with.

Looking at Dugu Yan, who she had pushed away but who kept swinging back towards her, veins bulged on Hu Liena's forehead.

"Stupid snake! Can't you stop swinging?!"

"Easy for you to say! I'm completely upside down here!"

Dugu Yan's purple hair hung down as her face flushed from being inverted for too long.

"It's your fault! You told me to call you Miss Nana, you idiot!"

"Rubbish!" Hu Liena immediately retorted.

"If it was just my fault, why would Miss Xue punish you too?"

Even though Hu Liena had issues with Qian Renxue, she knew very well that Qian Renxue didn't punish people without reason.

"So, how do we get down?"

Dugu Yan, sweating, didn't want to argue anymore. She just wanted the punishment to end.

"We'll have to work together."

Hu Liena gritted her teeth, hugging Dugu Yan's snake waist.

"I'm in a better position to move, so you'll have to suffer a little. Let me use you as a stepping stool."

"What?! You're going to step on me?!"

Dugu Yan struggled to look at Hu Liena, reluctant.

"I just need one step, enough to reach the beam."

"Otherwise, what's your plan?!"

Creak!

Qian Renxue returned, clearly in a good mood. She pushed open the door with a smile, looking at Qian Renjue who was sitting by the table.

"Jue, have you finished writing the letter yet?"

"Not yet."

Qian Renjue shook his head but then smiled unexpectedly.

"But it's great you're back, Sister."

"Why? Need my help?"

Qian Renxue's smile deepened as she sat down next to him, holding his arm.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing big," Qian Renjue said. "I'm just unfamiliar with Heaven Dou City and don't know where to arrange a meeting."

"Oh, I see."

Qian Renxue's eyes sparkled, seems like things were falling into place.

She had been trying to figure out how to get involved, and now here was her chance!

Qian Renxue pressed her cheek to Qian Renjue's, rubbing against him gently.

"Haha, don't worry about it, leave it to your sister!"

"Sister, what's gotten into you?"

Qian Renjue, feeling his face grow warm, asked curiously.

"Nothing, just happy." Qian Renxue giggled, planting a soft kiss on his cheek.

"Why are you rewarding me?"

Qian Renjue, feeling odd, turned his head to the side.

"Oh, right, where are Yanyan and the others?"

Mentioning Hu Liena and the others, Qian Renxue's smile widened.

She leaned on Qian Renjue's shoulder.

"Don't worry, they're still in the room."

"Are they being punished?" Qian Renjue guessed.

"No, I just had them 'work' together.'"

"Work together?"

"Yes, they're tied up quite securely."

Qian Renxue smiled mischievously, moving on from the topic.

Later that evening, Qian Renjue saw Dugu Yan and Hu Liena appear at dinner, supporting each other.

Both of them looked exhausted—Hu Liena was holding her lower back while limping, helping the also limping Dugu Yan.

"Senior Brother..." they greeted softly, not wanting to show their sorry state.

Qian Renjue shot a look at Qian Renxue, his eyes full of question, but she just looked away, unconcerned.

"Ah Yin, come heal them."

"Yes, Master."

Meanwhile, in another place, Ye Lingling had just returned home when her mother, Ye Qinshui, approached her excitedly.

"Lingling, a letter came! He wants to meet you!"

"Who?" Ye Lingling was confused.

"That boy, of course!" Ye Qinshui waved Qian Renjue's letter, her eyes full of mischief.

After what had happened last time, when Ye Lingling had sent a very forward letter, her mother had stolen it.

She had even lied, saying that the lantern was broken.

She went up to "fix the lantern."

But compared to the situation with the Nine Heart Begonia's mutation at the time, there was nothing much to be angry about.

It was only afterward that she stopped writing letters.

And it had something to do with Ye Qinshui, the widow who loved to "fix lanterns."
