Chapter 378: Call me Brother and let me hear it...

Zhan Lan turned to glance at him. "I said you're even with him now—nobody owes anyone anything—and she shouldn't call you Yan!"

Mu Yan raised an eyebrow and teased, "Jealous?"

Zhan Lan scoffed coldly, "Absolutely not!"

Mu Yan smiled faintly, his eyes twinkling. "Then let me hear you call me 'Brother,' Lan'er…"

Zhan Lan stared blankly at the golden fallen leaves on the ground and said, "No!"

Mu Yan pinched her waist lightly, whispering, "If you don't say it now, then you'll have to say it tonight…"

Zhan Lan's ears turned bright red, and she whispered, almost inaudibly, "Brother."

Mu Yan tilted his head and pretended, "I didn't hear you."

Zhan Lan shut her eyes and called out again, louder this time, "Brother!"

Mu Yan was stirred by the sound, his heart aflame. He curled his lips into a smile and turned Zhan Lan's face towards him. Zhan Lan felt a sudden softness against her lips.
