The next second, a storm of emotions swept through my heart. I held my breath and listened intently.
There is a woman in President Yan's room.
A woman... There's a woman in the room of the aloof and abstinent CEO of Yan University...
Could it be the girlfriend that President Yan has been so obsessed with lately, the one he cherishes so dearly?
It's the middle of the night in China right now!
So, they're living together!
Then I heard a girl's soft, coquettish voice coming from the computer, "A-Zhou, I want a hug~~"
Everyone: "..."
Heavens have mercy on them, do you think it's easy for them? They haven't even eaten yet, and they've already been stuffed with this unexpected dog food.
The cries of anguish echoed in everyone's hearts...
Yan Jingzhou shut down the computer, got up and walked over to the girl who was yawning and had tears in her eyes, "Rest if you're tired, don't stay up late!"
The girl pouted, "But I haven't finished my work for today!"
She yawned again, her eyes welling up with tears. "It's all Xiao Yisheng's fault! She shouldn't have gone out with her face injured. She just wouldn't listen and made people cause trouble for her!"
As soon as Yan Jingzhou sat down on the sofa, the girl obediently climbed over and snuggled into his arms, rubbing her little face against him sweetly. "Anle and Xu Songyu were behaving themselves and didn't do anything wrong, yet they were still being watched. Xiao Yisheng still hasn't learned his lesson; instead of staying home to recover from his injury..."
The man patted her head. "Xu Songyu won his lawsuit against Zhou Zijin?"
"Um!"
Yan Jingzhou pulled a thin blanket over Gong Ning and said, "The people behind Zhou Zijing have lost both their wife and their army. In their anger, it's not impossible that they hired someone to beat up Xiao Yisheng!"
Gong Ning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that A Zhou didn't know that the injury on Xiao Yisheng's face was caused by her hitting him.
She blinked and coughed lightly. She had to maintain a good image in front of A-Zhou, even if she really was the one who hit him, it wasn't now.
She's Ah Zhou's little fairy, not the kind of girl who likes fighting and killing.
"...A-Zhou, you actually know who's behind Zhou Zijing, don't you?"
"Um!"
Gong Ning suddenly grabbed his fingers and started playing with them, her eyes slightly lowered. "Being locked up and having her family's rules copied couldn't suppress her cunning heart... The picture of Xiao Yisheng's injury was posted online, and I deliberately didn't react. Sure enough, not long after, this matter started to ferment. It's really hard on her, putting so much energy and time into targeting me. Ah Zhou, tell me, what deep-seated hatred does she have for me... Is it just because of jealousy? But she has everything I have, and even things I don't have. As a socialite praised by everyone in high society, compared to a rebellious outcast like me who is ridiculed and mocked by everyone, what reason does she have to be jealous?"
“Jiaojiao, some people aren’t good at accepting those who are different from themselves, so to put their own mind at ease, they’ll just accuse others of being oddballs! Don’t deny yourself,” Yan Jingzhou’s warm lips gently kissed the girl’s smooth forehead, his eyes flickering slightly. He couldn’t bear to see her utterly bewildered, and gently reminded her, “Think carefully, what is it that you have that she doesn’t…”
Gong Ning blinked her eyes and repeated softly several times, "I have it, she doesn't... I have it, she doesn't, she doesn't..."
The next instant, his eyes widened suddenly, and he looked up at Yan Jingzhou with disbelief. His mouth opened and closed, and finally he managed to utter a few words with difficulty, "Beiyin International!"
"What she, Gong Xiangru, truly wants... is Beiyin International?" Gong Ning gripped Yan Jingzhou's fingers tightly, her eyes trembling. "So, all she did was try to take Beiyin International from me? Impossible! Beiyin International was left to me by Grandma, a gift from her. Why should she take it? I won't..."
Yan Jingzhou suddenly pulled the girl into his arms, his long, fair hands soothingly stroking her soft hair. His voice was gentle, with a touch of reassuring warmth, "So, don't let her take it away. Show her with a counterattack that she can't take Beiyin International away!"
"But she already has so much, why does she still want to take away my Beiyin International? It's the only thing Grandma left me, how can she take away even the last thing I have..."
Gong Ning's voice was tinged with sadness, and there were a few sobs as she tried to hold back her tears.
"Am I not her sister? Shouldn't we have been inseparable twin sisters? Even if she doesn't give me a single bit of the love that comes with being an older sister, can't she at least not be this cruel? She clearly knows, knows how important Beiyin International is to me, yet she still does this..."
The man didn't speak, his strong, muscular arms encircling her, quietly letting the girl vent her emotions.
"She's never hidden her intentions towards me, always so confident that everything will go according to her plan. In her mind, I have no chance of winning! How can she wear such a gentle smile and then stab someone in the back? If only she weren't my sister! If she and I had no connection, I wouldn't have to be heartbroken by her ruthlessness... I wouldn't have to go back to that house trembling with fear, terrified that she might harm me... No, I'm not afraid of her now, but what's the use of not being afraid? I'm still someone who uses scheming and manipulation on my own sister..."
The girl suddenly stopped talking, and her expression returned to calm, but the fingers that were gripping Yan Jingzhou's large hand turned a hasty white.
"Ah Zhou... my mind is so confused, what's going on..."
This was the first time Gong Ning had seriously considered how she should treat Gong Xiangru.
Is she really going to point the gun at her own sister?
Why did this game of strategy and competition happen between her and Gong Xiangru?
Why make such a difficult choice?
"But is someone like that worth it?" The man's deep, mellow voice rang in my ears.
She looked up at him, gazing into his deep, clear eyes, like a tranquil pool. His eyes were beautiful, their light bright, as if holding a thousand stars. This made her subconsciously clear away her chaotic, bewildering thoughts, and a few moments of clarity flashed through her previously bewildered and flustered eyes.
Noticing the girl's small hand loosen its grip on his fingers slightly, the man reached out and took her cool little hand into his warm palm, speaking gently, "If she's worth it, you can bring her to your family and tell them everything she's done in the past. But if you tell them all, the Gong family will see through everything. Will Gong Xiangru wake up then? The demons in her heart took root the moment she kicked you off the plane. Do you think she can be moved?"
Gong Ning froze, as if her blood had frozen for a moment. She stammered, "You...how did you know? What else do you know? You..."
