After Bai Youyi reminded him, Jian Yichen realized that he had gone off topic, uh... too far.
Jian Yichen touched his nose embarrassedly and said simply and quickly: "That girl's name is Chu Yin. Her family and the Lu family are also old friends. Their parents, uncle and aunt are all good friends. Since both parents are friends, the two children are naturally playmates."
"I heard from my old man that the woman has been very attached to my brother Lu since she was a child. She kept saying things like Brother Lu is all over the place, it was so disgusting."
His expression was as disgusted as it could be. Bai You didn't quite understand where he got this jealous look from.
"So, the two of them were childhood sweethearts, and then... they got together?"
Jian Yichen shook his head. "That's not the case. When the Lu family was in trouble, my brother Lu was not even 20 years old. How could he be in a relationship at such a young age? My old man only relaxed his guard when I was 21 years old. Now he keeps me under strict control. How could he be in a relationship?"
"That woman is definitely interested in my brother Lu, but my brother Lu isn't as enthusiastic as she is. But compared to others, he's still very enthusiastic. She and my brother Lu are about the same age and have been in the same class since they were young. When he was fifteen, my brother Lu went abroad to study, and she almost followed him."
Bai You raised an eyebrow, accurately finding the key word, "Almost?"
Jian Yichen hummed, "That woman, all the paperwork was done, but...she got into a car accident. It wasn't a serious injury, just a broken bone, but it left a psychological scar on her parents, who were determined not to let her go abroad. So, my brother Lu went alone."
Bai You frowned. Why did she feel that in this relationship, Lu Yunxiao was like an outsider, cold and heartless?
Bai You gave Jian Yichen a look, motioning him to continue. Jian Yichen spread his hands and said, "That's what happened. My brother Lu went abroad to study, and that woman stayed in China. She could only see him during the Chinese New Year when my brother Lu came back. This situation lasted for three or four years. Then, my uncle and aunt had an accident, and my brother Lu returned to China and started fighting for power."
"My brother Lu had a really hard time during that time. Every time he went out, he would face falling flower pots or speeding cars. There were too many dangers. Even in this situation, that woman resolutely stayed by my brother Lu's side, going in and out with him."
"That woman's parents are still alive, and her family is not ordinary and powerful, so... those who attacked my brother Lu were somewhat worried."
Bai You pressed his eyebrows together and asked, "Having a childhood sweetheart by your side provides spiritual comfort and security. Isn't that wonderful?"
Jian Yichen looked at her straight in the eyes, then said expressionlessly, "But that woman only stayed with my brother Lu for a month before she took her parents to Italy and completely relocated. Someone who had been inseparable for a month now completely leaves. How much of an impact do you think this had on my brother Lu?"
Bai You nodded. It seemed that what he said made sense.
Bai You pondered for a moment, then said, "So, was your brother Lu, completely drunk and devastated at the time? Or was he completely panicked and had a car accident? Or was he distracted and made the wrong decision, causing the company to fall into a deeper impasse?"
Jian Yichen: “…”
After all, he is your husband, can't you expect something good?
Doctor Jian Yichen glanced at Bai You and said speechlessly, "Can't you think of something better? Why are you always so..."
vicious.
Jian Yichen said the last two words silently in his heart. He didn't have the courage to say it in front of her.
Bai You raised an eyebrow, "But isn't this the routine? It's reasonable for a normal person to change like this."
Jian Yichen shook his head. "None at all. After she disappeared, my brother Lu became even busier. He used to go home to accompany Grandpa Lu. But after she left, my brother Lu has been completely rooted in the company. He hasn't left the company for a month straight."
"You can't help but wonder how deeply you're hurt. You're so desperately rooted in the company, keeping yourself busy like a top, not allowing yourself even a moment of free time to think about that person."
"For a whole year, my brother Lu didn't smile at all. He was so thin that it was heartbreaking for us."
"Who would dare to mention that woman in front of him? If you poke at his scars, then... it's over."
Jian Yichen suddenly sighed and said wistfully, "I don't know what my brother Lu has gone crazy for. He suddenly ran off to Italy and brought her back. Sigh, first love is so hurtful. Even a robot like my brother Lu can't forget it. Tsk tsk, it's ingrained in me. I hope that woman will have some conscience in the future and not make the same mistake and stab my brother Lu in the back again."
