After being beaten down by the entertainment industry, Ning Qiluo packed her bags overnight: "I'm afraid of cyberbullying, I want to go home and inherit my family's fortune."
...
“I’ve heard about some of what’s been happening around you lately.” His voice carried a reassuring quality: “Don’t worry, this will be resolved soon.”
"Um."
Where is Jiang Yingchi?
“He went back to Manchester.” Go talk to Grandma about it.
Jiang Yingchi originally intended to take her to Manzhou with him, but Ning Qiluo refused. Her grandmother didn't like her very much anymore and wouldn't want to see her. If she went to Manzhou and her grandmother didn't agree, it would only make things worse.
"Do you want to go public with your relationship with Jiang Yingchi?" Qi Zhufeng asked her.
Ning Qiluo's voice suddenly choked up: "I want to, but after I learned the pros and cons, I got scared. Everyone will scold me. I could ignore people scolding me before, but this time, I..."
If she and Jiang Yingchi go public with their relationship, she will be embroiled in a scandal of 'a woman toying with the feelings of two brothers'.
No matter how you explain it, this label will definitely be pinned on her head.
Countless people will speculate about her with malice, and there's that photo that was exposed online. It's clearly a photo of her and Jiang Yingchi, but why did her face become Jiang Zhaoying's face? And you can't even tell it's been photoshopped.
What if we release the original photo again?
Even if the original photos are released, how much of the public will believe them? Scandals may be late, but they will never be absent.
Qi Zhufeng hadn't seen his younger sister so sad in a very long time. He hugged her tightly with heartache and said, "Luo Luo, you are a daughter of the Qi family. As long as you want it, there is nothing that cannot be solved."
Ning Qiluo looked up at her third brother.
He asked her, "Tell your third brother, do you really like Jiang Yingchi?"
Ning Qiluo nodded: "I like him, I like him."
"What if we asked you to temporarily dissolve your engagement? Would you agree?"
"Why do you want to break off the engagement?" Ning Qiluo asked, puzzled, her expression as if she had been suddenly struck by a blow.
Qi Zhufeng rubbed her head: "I meant temporarily."
"Then why do we need to temporarily break off the engagement?" Ning Qiluo still didn't understand.
Qi Zhufeng thought of his conversation with Qi Siyi when they arrived in Beicheng.
The old lady of the Jiang family wants a marriage alliance with the Ningguta family, and the marriage partner is my maternal grandfather's only granddaughter. Since that old lady is so eager for power and influence, why not let her see for herself what kind of expression she'll have when she sees what she's so desperately wanting, which is also what she's rejecting?
Shock! Regret!
Qi Zhufeng thought his sister would agree.
It's just a matter of weighing the pros and cons.
But he didn't expect his sister to react so strongly, her voice choked with sobs and tears streaming down her face: "No, don't break off the engagement! I really love Jiang Yingchi, brother, I'm not lying to you, this time it's for real."
Her expression was so sincere; she was serious, and she wasn't joking this time.
Qi Zhufeng choked.
Unexpectedly, my usually carefree younger sister fell in love with Jiang Yingchi only half a year after losing her memory.
Before her sister lost her memory, she had no romantic feelings for Jiang Yingchi whatsoever, and she never even cared about the engagement. Her attitude towards Jiang Yingchi was always the same.
It seems that Jiang Yingchi has put in a lot of effort in the past six months.
Qi Zhufeng stayed with Ning Qiluo for a long time. Although the atmosphere seemed happy, Ning Qiluo's emotions were not focused. Finally, when Ning Qiluo got sleepy, Qi Zhufeng escorted her to her room.
After saying goodnight to her third brother, Ning Qiluo closed the door.
