Chapter 295: He's definitely my younger brother!
The mute uncle excitedly got up, pulled Zhou Zerui aside, glared angrily at Qi Huan, and mumbled something incoherently.
Qi Huan found the mute uncle's reaction very strange.
Zhou Zerui explained, "Uncle Ya, he is the eldest son of the Qi family, the most elite young master in Beijing's elite circles."
After realizing what was happening, the mute man began to use sign language with his hands.
Zhou Zerui originally intended to translate Uncle Ya's words to Qi Huan, but then he heard Jiang Youli say, "Huanhuan, Uncle Ya was just asking who you are and what you're doing here."
Zhou Zerui was taken aback. "President Jiang, you can read sign language?"
Qi Huan wasn't surprised. To him, it wasn't strange that Xiao Li'er would do anything, after all, she had said that the uncles and aunts in the village would teach her a skill every year on her birthday.
Jiang Youli said, "Yes, I studied it for a year."
Zhou Zerui looked at her with even more admiration, while at the same time a deep sense of inferiority settled in his heart.
The mute man continued to use sign language menacingly.
Jiang Youli translated, "Uncle Ya said, no matter who you are, get out of here!"
After translating, Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow. "Uncle Ya's reaction is a bit strange."
Qi Huan said gently, "Uncle Ya, do you know me? Is there some misunderstanding about me?"
The mute uncle shouted and waved his hand vigorously.
Jiang Youli said, "He said he doesn't know you and told you to get lost."
Jiang Youli said, "Huanhuan, Uncle Ya seems very wary, and it's obvious that he's so resistant to you because he knows you're from the Qi family."
Zhou Zerui explained, "Uncle Ya, you just woke up, so don't get excited. It was this President Jiang who woke you up. She has no ill intentions towards us."
Uncle Ya was taken aback when he heard this. He turned to look at Jiang Youli with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, and then began to communicate with her in sign language.
[What is your purpose in coming here?]
Jiang Youli said, "My fiancé Qi Huan came today because he suspects that Zhou Zerui is his younger brother Qi Yue."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Ya's expression became complicated.
"Uncle Ya, you actually know me, right?" Qi Huan's eyes darkened, and after a while, he continued tentatively, "Uncle Ya, you don't need to hide it anymore. Zhou Zerui is my younger brother, and I'm here today to take him back."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zerui was stunned for a moment, "But it turns out it wasn't..."
Before he could finish saying, "Haven't you come out yet?", Qi Huan interrupted him.
"Uncle Ya, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that it will be discovered that Zhou Zerui is my younger brother?"
Uncle Ya clenched his fists tightly, his expression becoming even more complicated.
After a while, as if he had made up his mind, he began to use sign language.
Meanwhile, Uncle Ya was still shouting at the top of his lungs.
Jiang Youli continued translating:
"Uncle Ya said that it's because your Qi family are scoundrels who actually sold a child with blood ties to human traffickers. Your Qi family are not human."
Qi Huan lowered her eyes, her gaze filled with guilt.
Jiang Youli was now certain, without even waiting for Cheng Jing's results, that Zhou Zerui was indeed Qi Huan's younger brother.
Qi Huan was not angry at Uncle Ya's words, and still said gently, "Uncle Ya, you are right to scold us. We Qi family members are heartless bastards."
Judging from Uncle Ya's words, Zhou Zerui was basically certain that he really was Qi Huan's younger brother.
"Uncle Ya, you don't trust anyone in the Qi family, so you've never thought about sending my younger brother back to the Qi family, is that right?" Qi Huan said, revealing her suspicion.
The mute uncle continued to gesture in sign language with righteous indignation, and Jiang Youli patiently retorted, "The mute uncle said that your Qi family's patriarch is inhuman. A baby who has just been born for a month was sent away by the child's own father just because a damned fortune teller said it would affect your Qi family's fortune."
"Who knows if your Qi family are all heartless wolves? Why would I send my benefactor's child into the tiger's den!"
Qi Huan gave a bitter smile.
No wonder.
After learning from Aunt Ya that his younger brother had been rescued, he wondered why, if the person who rescued his brother was indeed the one his mother had called for help in an emergency, they hadn't considered sending his brother back to the Qi family after so long.
It turns out that the mute uncle who rescued his younger brother didn't trust anyone in the Qi family at all.
Indeed, it's understandable that when Grandpa, as the head of the Qi family, made the decision to send his own grandson away, Uncle Ya believed that no one in the Qi family could be trusted, so he didn't dare to let Zhou Zerui acknowledge the Qi family again.
If his identity is exposed, Zhou Zerui could face certain death.
Qi Huan looked at the mute uncle and said, word by word, "Mute uncle, I am Qi Huan, Cheng Xiran's son, and my younger brother Qi Yue's older brother."
Cheng Xiran is his mother's name.
Mentioning his mother's name finally calmed him down a bit.
"Uncle Ya, believe me, I won't hurt my own brother." Qi Huan explained gently, "Uncle Ya, for my mother's sake, would you be willing to listen to what happened in the past three years?"
Seeing that Qi Huan truly had no intention of forcibly harming Zhou Zerui, Uncle Ya did not interrupt Qi Huan, but simply made two "ah ah" sounds.
Seeing that Uncle Ya had lowered his guard a little, Qi Huan recounted in detail how she had gained her grandfather's approval three years ago and how she had persuaded him to bring her younger brother Qi Yue back.
“Three years ago, I persuaded my grandfather to bring my younger brother back to the Qi family. However, I never expected that the person I brought back was not my biological brother, but an illegitimate child who was switched by Qi Tianxiang.”
When he heard the name Qi Tianxiang, Uncle Ya's eyes suddenly widened as if they were about to burst. He clenched his teeth and made angry gestures with his hands.
Jiang Youli quickly translated from the side: "Qi Tianxiang is a beastly bastard! He deserves to be torn to pieces and dragged away to be dismembered by five horses!"
Qi Huan silently lowered her head, gently stroking her feet, and revealed a bitter smile.
He slowly said, "My legs were damaged by that fake brother and Qi Tianxiang's illegitimate daughter. Fortunately, I didn't die. It was from that time that I began to doubt Qi Yue's identity. After some investigation, I finally confirmed that he was not my biological brother."
Then, Qi Huan continued, "So, I started searching for my younger brother all over the country. After a long search, it was my fiancée Jiang Youli who reminded me and led me here."
The mute uncle's gaze moved from Qi Huan's face to his legs, revealing a pained expression, and he began to gesture.
“I saw the news. Your legs were crippled by the kidnappers when you went to rescue your adopted daughter who had been kidnapped.” Jiang Youli translated while looking at Uncle Ya’s sign language. “Even you were in such danger at the Qi family, so I’m even less inclined to let Zhou Zerui go back to that kind of place that eats people up.”
"So you can't take Zhou Zerui away."
