Chapter 4 Because Suzaku is my brother 3
"Brother." Takamiya Hibari appeared in front of Suzaku, wearing a school uniform that didn't fit him well. His face wasn't looking good and he looked a little decadent.
I followed him upstairs, so I stood where he was and saw Suzaku coming out of the kitchen. Suzaku was holding two plates with a simple dinner on them, which seemed to be fried rice made from everything he could find. He looked at Yunque and didn't speak or move for a few seconds.
"Brother, why are you here?" Yun Que asked again, with fatigue in his voice that was hard to conceal. I don't know how he has been spending the past few days, but it must have been very difficult.
"Take your time." Suzaku seemed to finally come alive, put the things on the table, glanced at Yun Que, and asked, "Have you had dinner?"
"I..." Yun Que hesitated and said, "I have eaten."
"You two come over for dinner," Suzaku said coldly, ignoring Hibari's answer which was obviously a lie.
"Brother, you don't have to go out of your way to take care of me. I'm fine."
"If your sullen face is good, then the word 'good' really needs many interpretations!" Zhuque said immediately. I rolled my eyes at him speechlessly. How much does his mouth deserve a beating?
Receiving my contemptuous look, he stopped talking, looked down at the steaming fried rice, and said to Yun Que, "Eat the rice."
“I’ve already eaten.”
"Eat it!" Suzaku said loudly.
Seeing that he was about to say something else, I quickly ran over, sat on the chair and said to Skylark, "Ah, I'm so hungry, Lord Skylark, will you have dinner with me?"
"Tomorrow..." Yun Que hesitated, and before Suzaku's expression became even worse, he finally compromised.
A monotonous voice echoed in the quiet room. I looked at Suzaku worriedly because I knew he didn't eat dinner either. He looked back at me and made a face at me, silently saying to me with his lips: "You ate what I made, commoner!"
this person……
I ate the last of the fried rice on the plate unhappily, thinking about how to deal with him. At this time, Yun Que had already put down his chopsticks. He looked up at Suzaku again. The two brothers stared at each other, and the atmosphere was incredibly stiff.
I want to break the deadlock. Although I don't want to admit it, it seems that Zhuque is the only one who can do something for Yaoyao and Yunque.
I have fallen to the point where I can only rely on Takamiya Suzaku from TK Academy. I must have done something terribly bad in my past life!
"Lord Skylark, when you were away, Lord Suzaku reorganized and classified your library. He is so great. He can tell who wrote it and what kind of book it is just by looking at the title!" I began to adjust the atmosphere.
"My brother has always been like this. He is much better than me." Yun Que said silently, as if thinking about something, while Suzaku...
"What do you mean by much better? You can't even compare to me!"
Takamiya Suzaku, that's enough!
"Yeah, I can't compare to my brother at all." Yun Que smiled faintly, raised his head and looked at Zhu Que again, and said, "So, brother, you should know why I must leave you, right?"
"I..." Suzaku hesitated. I thought he was going to say something touching, but he roared at Yunque like a powder keg that had been ignited. "How should I know why you want to leave? You must have been struck by lightning, so you suddenly ran to support Xisai! You knew that he was the person your uncle hated the most, and you knew that anyone could be a royal knight except him!"
"But he gave me this!" Yun Que shouted out uncontrollably, his eyes instantly filled with tears. His tone was so excited that I, who was originally planning to blame Suzaku, didn't know what to do.
"He gave me this library to run it."
"Hmph..." With a sneer, Suzaku said provocatively, "This is how you manage it, with all the books placed where they shouldn't be--"
"Yes, that's right! I'm terrible!" Yun Que yelled, interrupting Suzaku's words, "But Xisai is willing to believe in me! Because he is willing to believe in me, I am also willing to believe in myself! Because of him, I feel that I still have hope, and I can still get something with my own hands! He is willing! What about you? Will you?"
"How do I-" Suzaku began, but Hibari interrupted him again.
"Yes! Brother, you will take care of me. This is not the first time you have helped me sort. Have you forgotten that you did the same thing the first time you came to this library? Brother, you will cook for me and help me find a way to pass the final exam. But brother, you will never believe in me. You will never trust me like Cisse does as a partner!"
"I..." Zhuque started to speak, but couldn't say anything. After a long, long time, the two people in front of me just stared at each other, saying nothing and doing nothing.
"Skylark, you have to understand..." After a long time, I felt that the air was so thin that it was suffocating, Suzaku spoke again, and said to Skylark, "Anyone can betray the Red Knight Branch, Osto, even Qiu Qianyuan can... But you are the only one who can't!"
"Why?" Yun Que said loudly, holding his head high with a determined look on his face, "Because I'm your brother? Because my last name is Takamiya?"
"Because..." Zhuque seemed to be trying to endure it, but after Yunque laughed coldly, he suddenly exploded and yelled at him, "Because Yaoyao likes you! She will ignore the 588 knights of the Red Knight Branch for you! Don't you understand?"
"Brother..." Suddenly, the contemptuous expression on Yun Que's face disappeared and was replaced by shock.
“Brother…you…”
"Do you think I'm an idiot? Do you think I'm blind? Why do you force me to say such hurtful words to my self-esteem?" Zhuque roared, his eyes red and his whole body trembling.
"Brother..." Yun Que trembled and didn't speak for a long time.
"Before you made your decision, did you ever think about the Red Knights? Did you ever think about us becoming the next Black Knights? Did you ever think about us?"
"Brother..." Yun Que looked like she was about to cry, but for some reason, I was only worried about that arrogant Takamiya Suzaku.
"Takamiya Hibari, I'm formally informing you--" Suzaku straightened his back and looked as if he was about to leave .
"I will expel you as the Grand Knight of the Red Knights branch. There are too many reasons for your expulsion, including countless make-up exams, negative scores, and many other reasons that you understand. After this weekend, I will convene a meeting of the entire Red Knights branch to announce the cancellation of your Grand Knight qualification, so you'd better be prepared."
"Brother, you can't do this." Yun Que gritted his teeth and whispered, "You can't expel me at this time. If you do that, my uncle will have a reason to oppose Xisai's status as a royal knight, and Xisai will still be at a disadvantage. I hope you can give me some time. I just need a little time."
"Have you ever given me time, Skylark?" Suzaku said coldly, turning and walking towards the stairs, "I remember five years ago, we went to the temple to pray together, and I asked you what your wish was. You were even more stupid then than you are now, so you stupidly told me that your wish was to marry Yaoyao. Do you remember how I answered you? I said, 'Skylark, I can't help you realize this wish now, there is no way. But there will be such a day, yes'. Have you ever given me time, Skylark..."
His figure gradually disappeared at the end of the stairs, and so did his voice.
Yunlark sat down beside me dejectedly, tears suddenly rolling down his cheeks.
"Lord Skylark, Lord Suzaku really cares about you." I was worried about Suzaku, but there was no way I could leave now.
"Just call me Skylark." Skylark said weakly, frowning as if recalling the past. "He said so, and I thought it was a joke, because he was Yaoyao's fiancé, not me. I thought that if I continued like this, I would never be myself. I thought..."
"Brother, I don't need your care. I just want to learn how to fight with my hands. Why don't you understand? Brother..."
"Skylark, maybe Suzaku just wants to protect you too much. And in his position..." I think I understand something, but I can't express it now. At this moment, the sound of the door opening suddenly came, followed by Suzaku's roar: "Mingri! Are you going to change your master again?"
Maybe the reason I stayed in TK was for Yaoyao, but my current identity is Suzaku's bodyguard, and I can't leave him.
"I'm sorry, but I have to go."
"It's okay, go to brother! Brother..." Yun Que raised his head and looked at me, "Maybe brother needs company more than me."
