Chapter 243 The Differences between Ye Qiu and Ye Xiu
"Although it's not New Year's Eve yet, we can just treat it as Chinese New Year since so many people are here. It's much more lively than previous years. Come on, let's drink!" Chen Guo, as the host here, raised his glass first.

"Good luck!" Mu Cheng was the first to join her best friend in expressing her blessing.

"Money comes from all directions!" Xiao Nai also followed immediately.

"May you be safe every year!" Ye Xiu also raised his glass and said.

"Go home early!" This was naturally from Ye Qiu, who was looking forward to taking Ye Xiu back home every day.

After drinking the first drink, Xiao Nai and the others were a little bit exhausted. Ye Qiu was still not aware that he was being tricked. He was still wondering when Ye Xiu would find out that his guild was gone and he could go home with him.

Ye Qiu, who was thinking hard, finally realized that the atmosphere was not right. For a moment, everyone focused their attention on him. Of course, not everyone did. Mu Cheng, who didn't know what was going on, was still confused. After all, Ye Xiu didn't mention this when he called her over, otherwise she wouldn't have recognized the wrong person.

“Come, let’s toast to our investors together and thank you for your support to our team, which has enabled our team to have a good year.” Ye Xiu said.

"Huh? What's going on?" Ye Qiu was a little confused. Why did he start thanking himself?

"Did I miss something?" Mu Cheng also looked curious.

"It's very simple, like this, like this, like this." Xiao Nai said as he moved his hands in two directions in turn, clearly explaining what had happened to Ye Qiu and Mu Cheng.

"Mr. Ye, you don't have to mind it. Don't worry, the money is considered your family's investment. You won't be cheated. Don't be depressed. Let's eat first." Xiao Nai said as he invited everyone to eat.

"So there actually is no guild, you guys are just trying to trick me?" Ye Qiu said a little depressed.

"Well... after all, you took the initiative to invite us. If we don't do anything, we'd be looking down on you," Chen Guo said a little embarrassedly.

"This wasn't your idea, was it?" Ye Qiu looked at his older brother who had no idea what the bottom line was.

"What are you talking about? Don't you have basic trust in me, your brother? I am your dearest relative, your brother!" Ye Xiu said with a sad expression.

"So?" Ye Qiu didn't buy it and asked directly.

"Add more money!" Xiao Nai translated.

"This is why you cheated me twice..." Ye Qiu said speechlessly. Is there any brother who would cheat his own brother like this?
"Well... actually it was Xiao Nai who first proposed this idea, and I just improved it a little bit." Ye Xiu said.

"Ahem, well, let's not talk about this. Let's eat first. Come on, eat more. It's a three million dollar meal. Eat more." Xiao Nai immediately picked up some food for the other party. After all, what he had done was indeed a bit unkind in this matter.

As a result, he didn't pay attention to what he said, and once again caused nuclear explosion-level damage to Ye Qiu...

Ye Qiu finally admitted defeat and simply ate his meal in peace, as if he was eating his brother. Seeing this made Ye Xiu's scalp tingle.

"Xiao Nai, your noodles with gravy are really good. How did you make it?" Ye Qiu said with some surprise. The gravy unexpectedly suited his taste.

"Brother, these noodles are made with great care. They are made with button mushrooms from Tongliao, shiitake mushrooms from Mount Wutai, black fungus from Mount Changbai, dried chrysanthemums from Qu County in Sichuan, big red star anise, and ancient dragon fruit from Teng County. There are also Dahongpao peppercorns from Feng County. Just to add these vegetables, it took me a long time to turn them around. The meat is also very particular, it is the pork cutlet from the back of the pig's front leg. Is the noodles chewy?" Xiao Nai asked at last.

Everyone nodded in unison.

"The egg white is alive, and then it is stirred, kneaded, and tied three times to make five flat noodles. Once the stew is out of the pot, pepper oil is poured on it. There is no sloppiness in any of the steps." Xiao Nai said confidently. This is also the recipe he learned from watching a video in his previous life. In this life, he has no shortage of money or time, so Xiao Nai tinkered with it. Although he doesn't know how the original version is, the one he made now has been widely praised by everyone present.

Although Xiao Nai felt that there must be an element of protection in this, he was still very happy. After all, what chef would not be happy when being praised by diners?

In the end, everyone ended the dinner with a glass of wine... Xiao Nai carried Ye Qiu and Ye Xiu back to his home. He was also helpless. He didn't expect that the two brothers were so bad at drinking. After only three small glasses, the two of them lost their memory. After throwing the two of them into Ye Xiu's room, Xiao Nai finally had time to rest.

Xiao Nai cooked almost all the dinner this time, and spent the whole morning cleaning. Now he feels like his whole body is falling apart.

Just when Xiao Nai finished taking a shower and returned to his room and sat in front of his computer, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Taking out his cell phone and seeing the caller ID, Xiao Nai smiled slightly because it was Qiao Jingjing calling.

As a result, Xiao Nai had just answered the phone when Qiao Jingjing's surprised voice came in: "Xiao Nai, I saw the dinner that Guo Guo shared. Since you can cook, Guo Guo said that the noodles you made are super delicious."

"Just make it casually. After all, it's convenient. I don't have too high requirements for the quality of life. I can eat it for a long time after making it once. What about you? When will you come back?" Xiao Nai said with a smile.

"Will you come to pick me up tomorrow afternoon?" Jingjing said in surprise.

"Ms. Jingjing, do you have such low requirements for your boyfriend? Why doesn't he pick you up when he has time?" Xiao Nai said with a smile.

"Hehe, then I want to eat noodles with gravy tonight." Qiao Jingjing climbed up the pole.

"No problem." Xiao Nai said with a smile.

"Are you playing games now?" Qiao Jingjing asked.

"Well, I just came online and prepared to clear today's copy times." Xiao Nai said.

"I'm playing games too. See you in the game." Jingjing said.

"Okay, see you in the game." Xiao Nai nodded and entered the game.

Xiao Nai and Jing Jing met up in Glory, along with Chen Guo, Tang Rou, and Mu Cheng.

Although they were separated in reality, the girls were still very happy to see each other in the game. During this period, Chen Guo gave her account to the studio for leveling, and her level also caught up slightly.

"Guoguo, how is your pursuit learning going?" Jingjing asked curiously.

"I finished the exam two days ago, and now I'm just waiting for the results to be released. I even suspect that Xiao Nai just wanted to trouble me, so he pulled me in to manage the team." Chen Guo said helplessly.

"Uh... Sister Chen, what you said, you are our boss, why do you make it sound like you are doing chores for me?" Xiao Nai said helplessly.

"Based on the current estimated share distribution, I am indeed working for you." Chen Guo said with some resentment.

"Ahem...what are you talking about? It's because you have experience and have been a boss before." Xiao Nai said a little embarrassedly.

"What kind of reason is that?" Chen Guo said speechlessly.

"I know this!" Qiao Jingjing raised her hand and said.

"Xiao Nai said that practice makes perfect. After all, his profession and job type remain unchanged, and his interest lies in it. No matter how you look at it, he is the most suitable person to be their boss." Qiao Jingjing said.

"Uh... Jingjing, hearing you say that, I seem to have a feeling that Xiao Nai has been plotting against me for a long time." Chen Guo said speechlessly.

"What are you saying? I'm not Old Ye. How can I be so shameless?" Xiao Nai felt that he had to restore his image in everyone's mind.

“Yeah, it’s true that your bottom line is higher than Ye Xiu’s.” Everyone nodded in agreement.

"But you are not a human being!" Before Xiao Nai could even breathe a sigh of relief, everyone else attacked him.

Xiao Nai: “…”

A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Ye Qiu had just arrived at the Internet cafe when he heard the sound of a firework explosion.

"Happy New Year!" Mu Cheng said with a smile while holding up the firework tube.

"Childish..." It was obvious that Ye Qiu was still a little resentful about being deceived by Xiao Nai and his group yesterday. "Hey, smile more often. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Don't be angry." Mu Cheng comforted him.

"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, good luck and good fortune. Let's have a good start." At this time Chen Guo also came over and said.

Hearing Chen Guo's words, Ye Qiu subconsciously prepared to take his check. But he was quickly stopped by Chen Guo, who handed him a red envelope and said, "Here, I'm giving it to you. Aren't you leaving today?"

"How childish! I've always been the one giving red envelopes to others. When have I ever accepted red envelopes from others?" Ye Qiu said as he was about to return the red envelope.

"Sorry, this is my territory. I don't care what you think, I care what I think. And my rules are the rules." Chen Guo didn't give Ye Qiu any chance to refuse and directly stuffed the red envelope into his hands.

This time it was Ye's turn to be stunned.

But Chen Guo ignored all this and said, "Why is there such a big gap between you two brothers? When I gave Xiao Tang a red envelope, your brother's hand speed in asking for the red envelope was almost faster than when he was playing the game." Chen Guo said.

"Guoguo, what about mine?" Mu Cheng walked forward and hugged Chen Guo and said coquettishly.

Chen Guo couldn't stand Mu Cheng's coquetry at all, and she broke down immediately. She gave out the red envelope that was supposed to be given tomorrow today.

"Boss, the money is coming in!" Mu Cheng said happily after receiving the red envelope.

"Are you starting to become popular today? Add me in. I wish all your wishes come true, boss!" Xiao Nai, who had just arrived at the Internet cafe, would definitely not miss this scene. He immediately flashed to Chen Guo's side and said with a flattering smile.

Seeing Xiao Nai like this, Chen Guo gave up. It was time to give it anyway, so she just gave up and gave Xiao Nai the red envelope.

Ye Qiu looked at this heartwarming scene. They were clearly working together, but their relationship was more like that of a family. He then looked at the red envelope in his hand and said, "Maybe this place isn't as bad as I thought."

"By the way, Ye Qiu, this is for you." At this time, Mu Cheng picked up a gift box and handed it to Ye Qiu.

"What is this?" Ye Qiu was a little curious.

"I don't know. Your brother asked me to give it to you. This thing was in Jia Shi before, and I brought it here yesterday." Mu Cheng said, indicating that she didn't know either.

"You're not going to bully me again, are you?" Ye Qiu now had very little trust in his brother.

"This is a gift he prepared. How could he possibly try to trick you here?" Mu Cheng rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

"Is this true? When did he become so corny?" Although Ye Qiu complained, he still took the gift box honestly.

"People change, not just you. He has also changed a lot over the years. Of course, he is the same as you, that is, he can drink a lot." Mu Cheng smiled. It can only be said that the two of them are worthy of being twins, even falling to the ground at the same time.

"Where is he now?" Ye Qiu was a little curious.

"Repairing the water pipes on the roof." Mu Cheng said.

"My brother can fix water pipes?" Mu Cheng's words surprised Ye Qiu. His brother, whose life skills were close to zero, can now do something like fixing water pipes?
Anyway, Ye Qiu was not in a hurry, so he went straight to the roof of the Internet cafe. As expected, he saw Ye Xiu repairing the water pipe, and it seemed that he had reached the last step.

"Are you sure you are trying to repair him, and not make him worse?" Ye Qiu came to Ye Xiu and said.

Ye Xiu would never tolerate this, so he turned on the faucet and blocked it with his hand, causing a stream of water to splash onto Ye Qiu, which scared him.

"No, are you trying to cause trouble?!" Ye Qiu said.

"Isn't this to let you see if it's been repaired? How is it? Are you sure?" Ye Xiu said as he fired another water line.

Ye Qiu, who was hit by two consecutive water lines, also lost his temper. He happened to see a water pipe with water still flowing. His eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, okay, you started the war first, so today we will settle all the new and old grudges together!" As he said that, Ye Qiu picked up the water pipe and continuously fired at Ye Xiu.

“You little brat, you’re still making trouble.” Ye Xiu confronted the other party head-on.

Xiao Nai, who had just put the toolbox back, came back and shook his head when he saw this scene: "How dare these two guys call each other childish?"

As he spoke, Xiao Nai took a photo and sent it to Qiao Jingjing. How could he forget his wife when doing such a fun thing?

The two of them quarreled for a while. Xiao Nai saw that they both sat on the ground and gasped for breath. Then he took two towels and water and handed one to each of them, while teasing, "You two childish ghosts who wasted water resources, are you finally done?"

With that, Xiao Nai left, just like a pair of "childish" brothers playing around.
The two brothers ignored Xiao Nai's teasing and said to Ye Qiu, "Xiao Nai, you are here just in time. Please judge for yourself. Is there any brother like Ye Xiu who is so professional at cheating his brother? I prepared so well to run away from home, but this guy took advantage of me. Can this guy be any more shameless?"

"There's really no doubt about the fact that there's no bottom line," Xiao Nai said.

"Right, right, you see Xiao Nai agrees with my point of view." Ye Qiu immediately stood up when he saw Xiao Nai supported him.

"Come on, whenever there's a chance to discredit me, do you think he'll ever miss it?" Ye Xiu glared at Xiao Nai, who was just trying to watch the fun.

Xiao Nai did not refute and continued to watch the friendly interaction between the two brothers.

At this time, Ye Xiu also said: "If you must count, this should be regarded as the childish behavior of stopping my brother from running away from home in time. At the same time, I have penetrated the bureau and served as a negative example for my brother for ten years."

"How dare you be more shameless? How can you speak so righteously about such a thing?" Ye Qiu was completely desperate about the bottom line of his brother.

"If you want to run away from home, then just run away. You used such a good opportunity to play games. You are really wasting it. You have wasted such a good opportunity for me." Ye Qiu continued.

"Oh? If that's the case, then you had a greater wish or goal than mine back then." Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"Uh..." This game really stumped Ye Qiu. After all, if he remembered correctly, he wanted to run away from home with the broken Transformers simply because his family didn't allow him to play with them, but he had no idea what to do. Of course, he would never say such a thing, otherwise he would be laughed at by his brother who had no idea what the bottom line was.

"What? You can't answer? Then let me ask it another way. What was your ideal at that time?" Ye Xiu asked again.

"I...my understanding at that time was, what's wrong with running away from home? Is it not possible?" Ye Qiu said in a desperate tone.

Hearing Ye Qiu's words, Xiao Nai couldn't help but laugh out loud. For a moment, he was really curious about Ye Xiu's family. What kind of environment could cultivate two children who had the idea of ​​running away from home and put it into action?

But Ye Xiu just nodded and said calmly: "This is the difference between us."

Ye Qiu scoffed at Ye Xiu's words. He didn't see any difference between them as brothers. After all, in his opinion, there was no difference between the other party running away for the game and him running away from home for fun.

Seeing Ye Qiu's unconvinced expression, Ye Xiu decided to teach his brother a lesson and said, "Actually, after Grandpa passed away, I went back once and I no longer had to avoid him. Aren't you curious why my parents never took me back even though everyone in my family knew I was there?"

"What's the big deal? Isn't it because of the angry words the old man said before?" Ye Xiu said disdainfully. After all, when Ye Xiu came back to attend the funeral and was about to go back to play professionally, his old man said something like, "You'll never come back to this family again." So the old man wanted to save face, so he asked him to come and lobby.

"Come on, you are already the CEO, can you not be so childish? We are a family, how could there be any overnight hatred? Neither I nor the old man would really care about such words. If I want to go back, I can go back anytime. After all, my ideal is nothing more than e-sports."

Ye Xiu didn't say anything, he seemed to understand a little.

Ye Xiu continued, "As we all know, the career lifespan of professional e-sports players is actually very short. I am indeed at the age of retirement now. Even if I still want to continue, I will reach my limit in a few years. In other words, the old man knows very well that I will go back sooner or later, and it will not be too late. After all, it will always be home. This is why my parents are willing to let me wander around alone."

"I agree with you. Look at you. Your situation is different from mine. A guy who simply runs away from home for the purpose of understanding, and me at that time. Now think about it again, who is more rebellious? When I left home, at least I had a goal and direction for what I would face and what I would do next, and I also knew what I would take on. But what about you? A guy who simply runs away from home for the purpose of understanding, if you really succeed, will you come back? When are you going to come back? What are you going to do outside? Do you have a basic idea and thought?... You don’t really think running away from home is a very fun and interesting thing, do you?" Ye Xiu said.

Hearing this, Ye Qiu was completely silent. At this time, he had to admit that he was indeed naive in this regard and did not see things as clearly as his brother...

Xiao Nai couldn't help but sigh as he watched the two brothers chatting: "I really envy you guys, you have a home you can go back to anytime, and there's always someone at home waiting for your reply."
