Sehun was extremely nervous when he rushed over. He was afraid that something terrible might have befallen Rosé. If that was to happen, he'd definitely be crushed by Lisa's fists, in addition to facing his brother's wrath.

He definitely was not anticipating such a gory scene to play out before him.

At this moment, the ones who should be crying are probably the elders of the Tang family.

Sehun shed a tear of sympathy for the men sent by the elders. How unfortunate of them, to bump into Lisa. Sehun peered down at his phone and realized that there was an astronomical number of missed calls from his brother. He glanced up at Taehyung and said, "You escort Xiao Rosé back."

"Where are you going?" questioned Taehyung with suspicion in his voice.

"I'm gonna go find my brother." Sehun couldn't be bothered with idle chit-chat. Without hesitation, he kicked Taehyung out of his vehicle.

Taehyung hopped out of the car immediately, barely missing that kick. His face darkened instantly. How dare this guy try to kick him! "Second Cousin, are you trying pick a fight with me?" Taehyung cracked his knuckles, a gesture to show that he was eager to fight.

Sehun narrowed his eyes and flashed him a dangerous look. "Say that again?"

"Second Cousin! Second Cousin! Second Cousin!" Taehyung hurriedly repeated these words before making a final dash for Rosé's vehicle. The moment he slid into her car, he urged her to stomp on the pedal.

"..."

Sehun went silent. Taehyung has been back for so long and yet this was the first time he felt the urge to punch him. He was under restraints back in the ancient martial arts world but it had only been a few days since he came out here. How on earth did he manage to turn into this so quickly?

Whilst contemplating, he drove over to the residential district next to A University. He recalled Chanyeol buying a house here.

Chanyeol was still wide awake when he arrived. He was sitting at the bar with a glass of fine alcohol on hand. Why did he have a fully-loaded bar in his temporary residence? God damn was he enjoying himself here! With a face devoid of emotions, Sehun located a bottle of red wine which he poured a glassful for himself.

"Good choice." Chanyeol eyed the wine bottle Sehun had picked. He was amused, as his brother had picked the most expensive bottle of wine he had in his collection. "You drink?"

Sehun gulped down his glassful of wine in one go, the sight of which made the corner of Chanyeol's mouth twitch awkwardly.

"You aren't going to ask me if everything's alright with Xiao Rosé?" By now, Sehun had already downed half a bottle of wine. He turned toward Chanyeol, who had called and texted him incessantly to ask about Rosé. Why then, was he shrugging this matter off as if it was nothing?

"I don't have anything much to ask about. She's been with Miss Lalisa for so long after all. Even I have no idea which level she has reached now." Chanyeol waved his hands casually as he was just slightly concerned earlier. With Lisa by her side, he said a silent prayer for the poor souls who dared to mess with them.

Sehun chuckled. "You seem to know her quite well."

His brother did not respond immediately to this statement. Instead, he switched over to another topic. "Have you stopped going to the Trial Tower?"

"Yeah, it's been a couple of days since I've last been there." Sehun tightened his grip on the wineglass.

"Go back tomorrow," said Chanyeol as he patted his brother on the shoulder. "Your phone couldn't be reached. Grandpa called me up yesterday to tell me just this."
