When Ke Qiao picked up Chang Meiying, he was taken aback to see that she was alone: "You came by yourself?"
Chang Meiying smiled and said, "That's right!"
She wasn't lying; she walked this route from the intersection by herself.
This date wasn't anything special. It was arranged before Keqiao went on a business trip to Africa. They would get together, stroll around, eat and drink, chat, and then part ways.
Ke Qiao invited Chang Meiying to KFC. Chang Meiying ate the junk food with a satisfied look on her face and praised it highly: "Sister Ke Qiao, we'll be best friends for life!"
Her parents forbid her from eating junk food outside, so she can only try it from her older sister in Keqiao.
Junk food is unhealthy, but it really suits her taste; unfortunately, she can't overindulge.
After having a quick bite at KFC, they went shopping together.
Chang Meiying inexplicably took a liking to a dog leash; a dog; Third Brother…
"Mei-Ying, have you bought it yet? The dog leash!" Ke Qiao was taken aback, and couldn't help but think of today's newspaper.
Chang Meiying, clutching the dog leash, grinned mischievously: "Sister Keqiao, this is a fun thing!"
If you buy it and say it was a gift from my sister in Keqiao, my third brother will definitely jump up and down.
"Naughty." Ke Qiao shook his head gently, smiling as he put down the dog leash from her hand: "You can't touch things like that!"
Children should learn good manners and not be exposed to things like "simps" too early, since simps are not gender-specific.
Chang Meiying said regretfully, "I wanted to buy it back and show it to everyone!"
The dog leash that her sycophantic third brother and her sister from Keqiao bought were a perfect match.
Ke Qiao suppressed Chang Meiying's budding mischief. After shopping and buying some things, the two found a place to chat. Ke Qiao talked about the strange things he encountered during his business trip to Africa, while Chang Meiying complained about her sister who was obsessed with painting.
Chang Shuying completed her postgraduate studies in Japan and will most likely pursue a doctorate, meaning there will be fewer and fewer opportunities to meet in the future. Chang Meiying has always been close to her sister since childhood and finds it hard to accept this fact.
Chang Meiying never dared to confide a single word to her family.
Chang Shuying is climbing to new heights, and everyone is happy for her. Chang Meiying doesn't want her sister to feel bad because of her own little emotions.
Sister Keqiao is a great listener and can offer timely and effective advice.
However, Ke Qiao failed to meet Chang Meiying's expectations this time, and Ke Qiao herself was still upset because of the scandal that had broken out between her and Chang Rihui.
Ke Qiao gently shook his head: "Ultimately, it depends on Shuying's own wishes. If she is determined to become a better painter, then this outcome is inevitable!"
Chang Meiying started daydreaming in broad daylight: "I wish my sister would suddenly decide to come home one day!"
Ke Qiao smiled and comforted her, "Maybe that day will come!"
Chang Meiying grinned.
After their date, Chang Rihui waited for Chang Meiying at the intersection. Ke Qiao and Chang Meiying appeared in his line of sight together. He didn't even blink and clung to Ke Qiao, completely ignoring Chang Meiying.
Chang Meiying walked over and raised an eyebrow: "Third Brother, have you seen enough?"
"I could never get enough of looking at her!" Chang Rihui didn't even bother to glance at her. Seeing Ke Qiao about to disappear from sight, he shouted, "Da Wang, hurry up and catch up with Ke Qiao!"
Chang Meiying opened the car door and sat down, her tone helpless: "My third brother can't control himself again. Brother Dawang, don't listen to him, let's go home!"
Da Wang was quite decisive. He ignored Chang Rihui's nonsense, stepped on the gas, and left the place.
"Keqiao..." Keqiao disappeared from sight, and Chang Rihui wiped his face uncomfortably, instantly returning to normal.
Chang Rihui looked at Chang Meiying with displeasure: "Why would Keqiao want to see you instead of sitting down and having a serious talk with me?"
Their business is the most important thing, not that Ke Qiao should abandon him and have the time to spend on dates with Chang Mei Ying, eating and drinking and wasting a whole day.
Chang Meiying was also unhappy: "Third Brother, what do you mean? Your affairs are important, but our affairs can't be important? Listen carefully, you and Sister Keqiao have broken up! This relationship is over! Don't have any more unrealistic fantasies, it's impossible!"
We broke up.
It wasn't a fight, a cold war, or a tiff; his mood was no longer within Keqiao's considerations.
Chang Rihui felt lost and disappointed, and he had never been able to get over his previous relationship.
Chang Rihui regained his composure: "Meiying, you're right. My relationship with Keqiao is over, and I have to move on!"
Instead of indulging in old ways of getting along and pushing Keqiao further and further away.
Keqiao has the right to decide who he likes, but!
Chang Rihui made up his mind that he must become the most likely candidate.
Chang Meiying: "..." A man caught in a painful unrequited love is a little scary!
Just as Chang Rihui had mentally prepared himself and given each other time to seriously consider their relationship, another incident dragged them together again.
The newspaper that defamed him and spread rumors that he was a sycophant didn't seem to be going to stop there. After the crazy sales on the first day, the newspaper became even more despicable on the second day, writing more unfounded things. Chang Rihui degenerated from a sycophant into a dog without dignity in any real sense.
Chang Rihui's face was thrown on the ground and stomped on.
Chang Pengfei couldn't laugh after reading the next day's newspaper.
Although my third brother loves Keqiao to the point of madness, he is not the kind of person who abandons his self-respect and loses his sense of self, much less a dog without the ability to think for himself!
Compared to yesterday's lighthearted talk, the newspaper's actions today went too far, blatantly humiliating Chang Rihui.
Chang Pengfei asked Chang Rihui through gritted teeth, "Do you have enemies at this newspaper?"
Chang Rihui threw the newspaper aside: "Maybe!"
Chang Pengfei was furious and asked him for advice: "We can't let the newspaper continue to be so arrogant, going further and further each time. Today's paper has gone completely out of line. What are they planning to write about tomorrow!"
"It's none of their business what they write!" Chang Rihui was initially furious, but after thinking it over, he decided to just let it go.
Should he go on another interview and reveal his entire love story with Keqiao to prove himself?
He didn't have that intention. If anyone is to blame, it's him for losing control of his emotions and mentioning his feelings to the public. It's no wonder that some people with ulterior motives profited from it.
He admitted his mistake, but he didn't want to escalate the situation and cause unnecessary trouble for Keqiao, so he accepted the loss.
Upon hearing Chang Rihui's thoughts, Chang Pengfei couldn't help but sigh: "Third brother, you and Dad both... make me feel like I was adopted."
Chang Rihui smiled and said, "Second brother, you couldn't have been adopted. Look how much Dad dotes on Shuying and Meiying, and then look at how you treat An'an!"
Chang Pengfei laughed heartily: "As long as it wasn't found on the street!"
Since Chang Rihui decided not to pursue the matter further, Chang Pengfei comforted him for a few words and then rushed home to take his daughter to school.
Ke Qiao was stunned when he saw the day's newspaper. Yesterday's report had a touch of dark humor, but today's was downright insulting.
In a fit of anger, Ke Qiao contacted his cousin Zhuang: "Cousin, find me a newspaper too..."
