Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

Panda Novel

He did not know if it was because the weather was too good today and the sun was shining brightly, or if it was because Dai Chukong's description was too attractive, but Qi Bufan agreed.

Qi Bufan was wearing a hospital gown and a long down jacket. Dai Chukong was worried that he would be cold, so she placed a blanket over his legs. She personally pushed Qi Bufan downstairs.

Qi Bufan noticed that Dai Chukong's hand was a little purple. It should be cold.

He suddenly said, "Go back to my room. I forgot something."

"Okay."

Dai Chukong pushed him back to his room.

Qi Bufan sat in the wheelchair, opened the top drawer of the bedside table, and took out a pair of leather gloves. These gloves had been worn by Lang Zhan before. They were a little big, but they were windproof. Qi Bufan handed the gloves to Dai Chukong and said, "A girl's hands can't be frozen."

Dai Chukong stared at the glove in a daze.

She suddenly remembered the first time she had seen Qi Bufan. It had also been a cold winter. He was wearing a short cotton jacket and had knocked on her door on a cold night.

Her old grandpa opened the door, and Dai Chukong hid behind him. She looked at the man who had braved the rain and stood at the door with red cheeks. At that time, Dai Chukong really had no feelings for Qi Bufan. After all, she was still young.

She did not know how he had discussed this with Grandpa Dai, but on the third day, Grandpa Dai asked Dai Chukong to follow him. Before he left, he even told Dai Chukong that from now on, Qi Bufan would be her little father.

Dai Chukong had long reached an age of awareness and knew that Qi Bufan was not her father. He was a big brother.

Dai Chukong's hometown was in the north. It would take more than 20 hours to get to Qi Bufan's hometown. On the train, Qi Bufan explained his identity and his relationship with Boss Dai in detail.

Knowing that his father had died to save this big brother in front of him, Dai Chukong did not hate Qi Bufan. At that time, Qi Bufan was still young and looked serious, but he was very good-looking.

He had asked her to call him Dad and said that he would take care of her like a daughter.

Dai Chukong refused. She called him brother the moment she opened her mouth.

Qi Bufan could not change the way she addressed him no matter what. He only thought that Dai Chukong loved Boss too much and could no longer call others Dad, so Qi Bufan did not force her. Qi Bufan's hometown was in the mountains. When it rained in summer, it was easy for there to be landslides.

Dai Chukong had studied in primary school in his hometown for two years. That day, after school, she went home with a few neighbor children. On the way, she encountered a mudslide and the children were all buried inside.

Dai Chukong was also buried in the mud. When she fell, the umbrella cloth happened to cover her head, so the mud did not enter her mouth and nose.

Before being buried by the mudslide, Dai Chukong heard other children calling for their parents and grandparents. After a moment of daze, she shouted for her brother. When Dai Chukong opened her eyes, she saw a face covered in stubble.

She stared at Qi Bufan, unable to tell if she was dead or alive.

Qi Bufan suddenly hugged her tightly.

"Girl, I'm glad you're fine. I'm glad you're fine!"

Dai Chukong could feel that the hands hugging her were trembling greatly. Dai Chukong carefully kissed Qi Bufan's cheek before saying, "Brother, don't be afraid."

During that accident, the bones in Dai Chukong's hand were broken.

When she recovered and went to look for the neighbor's children, she found out that the other three children had all died in the mudslide. As their parents were not at home, it was already too late when their old grandparents found them.

Dai Chukong went to ask her grandma how she survived.

Grandma said, "The rain was especially heavy that day. Your father risked the landslide and dug you out with his bare hands. When you were dug out, you were breathless and covered in mud. Your father hugged you and howled. I've never seen him look so sad."

Dai Chukong was a little shocked.

Brother was so silly.

Was he not afraid of death?

She ran to ask Qi Bufan, "Brother, if the mudslide acts up again when you're saving me, you'll die too. Aren't you afraid?"

Qi Bufan picked her up and raised her high.

She heard Qi Bufan say, "You're my little baby. I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid of you dying."

When Dai Chukong adapted to the local life, made friends, and became familiar with the neighbors, Qi Bufan left his hometown. He carried a bag and went to a big city called Binjiang City alone.

In the first two years, Qi Bufan worked very hard and only went back for the Lunar New Year. When he went back, he would always buy a lot of things for Dai Chukong. At that time, Dai Chukong ate and used the best things in the village.

Later, he told Dai Chukong on the phone that he knew a rich young master and wanted to be his assistant. The treatment was very good.

He had said that when he had saved enough money, he would buy a house in Binjiang City and live there with her.

Therefore, the place Dai Chukong yearned to go the most was Binjiang City.

The first time Dai Chukong received a gift from Qi Bufan was a pair of gloves. It was a pair of pink gloves with rabbit ears on the back of both hands. Dai Chukong actually did not like pink. She liked blue more, but Qi Bufan thought that girls liked pink. Everything he bought for her was pink, like school bags, stationery, shoes…

She did not like pink, but because of Qi Bufan, she was infatuated with it.

When she was 14 years old, she was confessed to by a boy for the first time. At that time, she was scared out of her wits and ran home to call Qi Bufan. Qi Bufan ran back the next day and warned the boy. From then on, no one dared to confess to Dai Chukong.

This was because everyone knew that Dai Chukong had a father who had retired from the army and did not talk much.

Dai Chukong passed her adolescence calmly. She did not fall in love or rebel.

When did she have other thoughts about Qi Bufan?

Dai Chukong could not remember.

The only thing she remembered was that she had watched the Condor Heroes. She had seen Liu Yifei acting as the little dragon girl and hugging Yang Guo, who was still covered in Heartless Flowers, in the Heartless Valley. When she saw the little dragon girl cry, she had cried too.

The little dragon girl called him 'brother' over and over again.

At that moment, she was imagining Qi Bufan digging her out of the mudslide.

She did not know what she loved about Qi Bufan.

Anyway, as long as she thought of him, Dai Chukong felt that the world was bright and pink. She looked forward to the arrival of the morning every day. She looked forward to growing up and looking forward to the days when things improved before she could go to Binjiang City to live with her brother.

After so many years, having a crush on Qi Bufan had already become a habit. Now, Dai Chukong still did not know what it felt like to love someone else, but loving Qi Bufan was really painful.
