Fake siblings, 6-year age difference, both pure.
Lin Zao Yi could never have imagined that the man she enticed that night was Tan Zhaojing.
An unrelated brother, yet truly present.
<...Chapter 130 Upon learning that her son's girlfriend was Mingxian's daughter, Tan's mother immediately lost all composure.
To avoid running into Tan Zhaojing's mother, Lin Zaoyi decided not to shop anymore. She'd buy the cufflinks next time; she'd already been frugal for so long.
Tan Jiani had the same idea and called the driver. The driver thought they would be shopping for a long time and took care of some personal matters. He was already on his way and would arrive in about ten minutes.
There were stone benches ahead, and she gestured for Lin Zaoyi to go over and bask in the sun. She had only taken two steps when she suddenly heard someone call out to Lin Zaoyi, the tone of which seemed to carry a hint of uncertainty.
Lin Zaoyi unconsciously frowned, finding the voice's owner very annoying. She turned her head to the side and saw a face that triggered her physical revulsion.
It's been about a hundred days since I last saw Sun Yao.
Since the day of the car accident, he has vanished into thin air. I wonder why such scum would reappear?
The look of disgust was completely undisguised, written all over his face.
Tan Jiani's gaze swept between the two men before returning to Lin Zaoyi. It was clear that Lin Zaoyi disliked this man.
She hates it too.
Sun Yao is the nephew of Sun Ershu, the man my mother remarried. I've met him a few times and at first I thought he was quite polite and his appearance was alright.
Who would have thought that after spending a few days together, he would touch her hand intentionally or unintentionally. At first, she thought he was just being paranoid, until this beast took her to the backyard greenhouse under the pretext of looking at flowers, created a little incident, and pinned her against the wall.
Damn it, do they think she's some naive young girl?
He kicked me hard right then and there.
Later, at He Nian Ge's club, she happened to pass by a private room and saw him pinning down a girl. The level of intimacy was so extreme that even short videos wouldn't dare to be shown.
Therefore, Lin Zaoyi's immediate reaction to her disgust was to think about what disgusting things this beast had done.
He immediately asked, "Did he do something to you?"
Lin Zaoyi pursed her lips. "It didn't work."
"Oh, Jia Ni's here too." A flirtatious voice came from behind.
Sun Yao sat in the driver's seat, sunglasses perched on his head. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Long time no see. Want to come play with your brother? Don't worry, it's not just the two of us, Auntie is there too."
"Get lost!" Tan Jiani didn't hold back when cursing him. "Don't try to get on my good side, and don't talk to me. I find it disgusting!"
Sun Yao wasn't annoyed; he still had a smile on his face. He stared at Tan Jiani for two seconds, then moved to Lin Zaoyi. "It's been so long since I've seen you; you've become even more beautiful."
What to do? I want them both. Forget it, I'll pass on Tan Jiani. I can't afford to mess with her.
He got out of the car and asked, "How did you two end up together?"
As he asked, his expression suddenly hardened. Could Lin Zaoyi still be being kept by Tan Zhaojing?
He had been exiled by his father for almost 100 days. Just yesterday, his mother took pity on him and brought him back. On the way back to Beijing, he asked her several times before she finally told him that the person who prevented him from returning was Tan Zhaojing!
Tan Zhaojing, the son of the second uncle's second wife, is different from Tan Jiani. Tan Zhaojing has never appeared in the Sun family, which is why he does not recognize him.
The fact that Lin Zaoyi and Tan Jiani are appearing together now only shows that Tan Zhaojing hasn't had enough fun yet.
Damn, isn't it tiring?
Lin Zaoyi subconsciously pulled Tan Jiani back a bit, and then took a few steps back herself. She had to keep a distance from the beast, otherwise even the air would be dirty.
Sun Yao thought they were about to leave, so he quickly stepped forward and reached out to stop them.
Snap—
He received two hard slaps on the back of his hand.
The street was noisy, but the sharp sound was not drowned out at all; the two girls moved quickly and ruthlessly.
Sun Yao was stunned for a moment after being hit, "Fuck your mother!"
"Fuck you!" they both said in unison.
"What's all the noise about?" a crisp voice rang out.
Tan Jiani recognized the voice.
Lin Zaoyi was not familiar with the person, but she recognized the voice as that of Tan Zhaojing's mother.
Tan Jiani said angrily, "Mom, I didn't want to argue, but it's Sun Yao's fault for spewing nonsense everywhere!"
Sun Yao put on a fake smile, "Jia Ni, it's been so long and you still haven't forgiven me?"
"Get lost, and stop talking to me!" Tan Jiani glared at her with disgust.
Tan's mother knew that her daughter disliked Sun Yao. She had asked her why before and said that Sun Yao was frivolous and liked to touch her inappropriately. She had observed him for a while and thought he was alright.
It seems like she accidentally bumped into something, and that's why she's having an allergic reaction.
"alright."
She patted her daughter and said, "Logically, you should call Sun Yao 'brother,' don't be so hostile."
Tan Jiani thought she had misheard, but she hadn't. She asked excitedly, "You want me to call this kind of scumbag 'brother'???"
I couldn't help but ask the burning question: "Are you my real mother?"
Tan's mother instantly became displeased, her brow furrowing sharply, her voice cold and stern, "Tan Jiani, how dare you speak like that? You used to be so well-behaved, but now you've become so disrespectful. Who taught you that!"
While scolding him, he glanced to the side.
Lin Zaoyi naturally sensed that the woman in front of her seemed to blame her for her daughter's attitude, and that she had become so rude because of her influence.
Jia Ni is a bit emotional, but there's a reason for it. As her mother, shouldn't you ask her what happened?
He even scolded them in front of outsiders.
She took a deep breath and met the other person's scrutiny without flinching. She was Tan Zhaojing and Tan Jiani's mother, and as long as she didn't verbally attack her mother directly, she wouldn't pay any attention to her.
Of course, Tan's mother wouldn't do that; it would be beneath her dignity. She glanced at her dismissively and then turned her gaze back to her daughter.
When Tan Jiani spoke again, her tone was normal. "I didn't learn from anyone. I've always had this bad temper since I was a child. It's not surprising. After all, you didn't take care of me much, so it's normal that you don't understand me."
Mother Tan frowned even more deeply. "Do you have to talk to me like that?"
Tan Jiani's heart was filled with sorrow. Forget it, there was no point in saying more. No matter how hard she tried, her heart would never be with her and her brother.
If you never received attention when you were a child, why bother asking for it now?
She instantly regained her obedient demeanor, saying, "Sorry for my tone. I have other things to do. Please continue."
Mother: "...I haven't finished speaking yet!"
Her daughter responded by turning away swiftly, without even looking back.
They're getting more and more immature as they get older. I don't know how that woman led her child astray!
Sun Yao's attitude throughout the whole thing was that he was just watching from the sidelines, and he was itching to join in, even though Lin Zaoyi had gone with him.
No rush. Even if the Tan family had a similar background, my second aunt wouldn't be interested. Judging from her reaction just now, she probably doesn't know yet.
Noticing his aunt scrutinizing him, he straightened up and asked, "Second Aunt, what's wrong?"
"Did you do something to Jiani?"
He wanted to do something, but he didn't succeed.
Sun Yao feigned innocence, "How could that be? I've always treated Jia Ni like a younger sister, the kind of affection you have for a younger sister. Maybe she's overthinking it and thinks I have feelings for her. Second Aunt, no matter how much of a troublemaker I am, I would never lay a hand on my own family."
Mother Tan remained silent, staring at him without saying a word. During this time, Sun Yao did not look away, otherwise he would have seemed guilty.
After about three to five seconds, Tan's mother spoke up, "Let's go, get in the car."
Sun Yao: "Okay."
He breathed a silent sigh of relief, realizing that his aunt seemed to believe him.
As the car started, Sun Yao didn't immediately ask about Tan Zhaojing. After driving for a while, he asked in a casual tone, "Second Aunt, you know that Brother Tan has a girlfriend, right?"
The mother, still visibly annoyed by her daughter's attitude, hummed in response, her breath slightly heavy. "Your dad mentioned it to me, saying he's a reporter, but I don't know anything else."
I asked Zhaojing, but she didn't say a word. Her son's personality is completely opposite to her daughter's; one keeps everything to herself, while the other wears it on her sleeve.
He glanced at Sun Yao and asked, "You know?"
Sun Yao had to do something; this was a golden opportunity.
He feigned surprise, saying, "I knew your reaction was so flat."
He deliberately parked the car to the side, feigning surprise, "So you didn't know Lin Zaoyi was Brother Tan's girlfriend all this time!"
Finally, she added, "The one who was shopping with Jia Ni just now is Lin Zaoyi."
These words were like setting off firecrackers in the room, causing Tan's mother to lose all composure on the spot and leaving her mind buzzing.
