Chapter 105 - Can You Forgive Your Brother?
She was breathing heavily, her eyes were red at the corners, and her face was contorted in pain, which made He Jinchao feel extremely distressed.
He gently patted her back and softly coaxed her in her ear, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here."
Song Shiyi leaned into his arms and buried her face in his chest, which made her feel a little more comfortable.
She nodded slightly and said softly, "Yes, I'm fine."
She tilted her head back, her eyes misty with tears, and asked, "Why are you here?"
He Jinzhao touched the corner of her eye, his lips pressed tightly together, and his anger deepened in his eyes.
"Si Yue told me that you were called away by Shen Yanci, and she was worried about you, so she asked me to come and find you."
"I've searched almost the entire Peking University campus, but I never expected you to come here at the artificial lake."
As he spoke, he added with a hint of grievance, "This is a romantic spot for couples, but neither of us has ever been here."
Song Shiyi smiled helplessly, and was about to say something to comfort the person when a soft, ambiguous laugh came from the air.
The two turned their heads at the same time and saw Shen Yanci with a raised corner of his mouth, a playful look in his eyes, and a teasing tone.
"Ah Chao, you're so ruthless to your own brothers."
He Jinzhao frowned, his expression was cold and stern, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line. He rarely got angry, but at this moment his face was completely dark and his eyes were like ice.
"The Inkstone's Resignation".
"Why don't you take a look at what you're doing?"
"Didn't you see she couldn't breathe?"
"She's your sister, and this is how you treat her?"
Shen Yanci's usually gentle expression suddenly darkened as he met his gaze.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, like swords were about to be drawn, as if it were about to explode at any moment.
He curled his lips into a smirk, his deep, dark eyes revealing intense jealousy and resentment.
"younger sister?"
The last syllable rose in pitch, carrying a hint of sarcasm.
His voice deepened as he pointed at the girl in his arms, a storm brewing.
"You still know she's my sister?"
"Is this how you fucking treat me? You hid it from me and got together with her?"
The two made quite a commotion, quickly attracting the attention of many people.
The sensible ones have already started taking pictures.
Over here, Song Shiyi subconsciously wanted to speak, but was stopped by He Jinzhao.
He shook his head at her; this was between them, and there was no need to involve her.
Moreover, the moment he was with Song Shiyi, he had already foreseen this situation.
I just didn't expect it to come so quickly.
He Jinzhao lifted his eyelids to look, and there were clearly very beautiful eyebrows and eyes, but they were as sharp as the wind and frost of the Northwest Desert.
"Am I hiding it from you, or are you simply unwilling to believe it?"
"Yan Ci, do you really not know?"
Shen Yanci's face stiffened, and a complex expression flashed across his sharp, dark eyes.
He Jinzhao is right.
His intentions were so obvious, how could I not see them?
He just didn't expect that the girl He Jinzhao cared about was actually Song Shiyi.
He didn't take it to heart after learning about it. In his opinion, Song Shiyi liked him, and a simple and well-behaved girl like her would not easily fall in love with someone else.
So, after seeing their posts on social media that night, he panicked instinctively.
He wanted to question Song Shiyi, but he was with Ji Siyu at the time, so it wasn't convenient.
I planned to wait for her to come back and find out what happened, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened in the middle.
he……
However, for him, the breakup was a good thing, at least because of it he knew who he truly liked.
Ji Siyu, he felt he had wronged her, and he would make it up to her.
Finally, Song Shiyi came back, and I was able to talk to her.
But her words were all about He Jinzhao, and her joyful and sweet demeanor was completely different from before.
He admitted that he was a little panicked.
He couldn't help but wonder if they had shared a room during their trip.
Did they kiss, or do anything unspeakable?
The more he thought about it, the more jealous he became.
younger sister?
Who the hell wants her to be their sister?
He and Song Shiyi have been together since birth; his presence has been a constant in her life from childhood to adulthood.
What gives him the right to withdraw?
Song Shiyi can only be his.
Shen Yanci's jaw tightened, and after a long while, he gently parted his lips, his eyes dark and unfathomable.
“If it weren’t for me, you would never have had a chance to get close to her.”
He Jinzhao shook his head. "I don't deny it."
“But,” he paused, his eyes hardening with an unwavering certainty.
“You had countless more opportunities than I did, but you didn’t cherish them, and you can’t blame anyone else for that.”
"And I, once I can seize an opportunity, will hold it tightly in my hand and will never let go."
As he spoke, he tightened his grip on Song Shiyi's hand. The latter had recovered and couldn't help but smile faintly upon hearing this.
Shen Yanci remained silent.
He couldn't refute it at all.
These are established facts.
During his youth, he doted on his younger sister Song Shiyi, treating her like a precious gem.
Having a well-behaved and beautiful younger sister was something he was very proud of at that time.
His friends were envious and jealous, and they jokingly said that he had raised a child bride for himself.
He neither denied nor admitted it.
Song Shiyi was quiet and gentle, but also quite boring.
As he grew older and faced with external temptations, he realized that he didn't have to revolve around her.
On the contrary, her presence will affect his interpersonal relationships with others.
For example, dating.
His first year of university was the freest and most relaxed year of his life.
He doesn't have to go home, and he doesn't have to pretend to be a good older brother in front of her.
Naturally, he was just like any other boy his age.
As he entered the adult world, he started going to bars, nightclubs, and various parties with his friends.
Having a relationship naturally and enjoying physical pleasure.
He may not have had a serious relationship, but that doesn't mean anything.
He would not allow negative news about himself to circulate in the school, because he did not want Song Shiyi, who would be enrolling later, to know.
Look how confident he is in himself.
I never imagined Song Shiyi would choose another school, because he's here.
He maintained a gentle, reserved, and refined image as a good older brother in front of Song Shiyi.
He'd gotten used to wearing the mask for so long that even he'd grown accustomed to it.
But today, it shattered.
Shen Yanci's eyes flickered with light and shadow as his gaze swept past He Jinzhao and landed directly on the face of the girl in his arms.
"Yi-yi, I didn't control my emotions just now, I apologize to you."
His voice regained its usual gentleness, as if nothing had happened.
Shen Yanci slowly and methodically straightened his somewhat disheveled collar. The bruises around his mouth looked quite severe, but he didn't seem to care.
"Yi-yi, can you forgive your brother?"
