How could I not feel terrible?
Lu Ci didn't feel jealous that his brother and he liked the same girl, since neither of them could have her.
He felt that he and Wen Yu were both in the same boat, truly miserable, and he empathized with them.
No, Wen Yu might be in an even worse situation than him.
Because he at least never targeted Jiang Nian, but Wen Yu had always been indifferent to Jiang Nian.
Seeing the pile of empty bottles scattered on the table, Lu Ci simply pressed the bell and had another case of wine delivered.
The current situation seems no different from a breakup.

After leaving the convention center, Jiang Nian returned to the Ji family home.
After dinner last night, Si Boye took Old Master Si back to the other villa.
Although her grandfather and brothers now know about her relationship with Si Boye, with six brothers watching over him, Si Boye not only has to keep a respectable demeanor at all times, but also has to maintain his distance from her.
Si Boye only dared to complain on his phone, saying that he didn't even have a chance to hug her yesterday.
When she got home, she was surprised to find her grandfather and brothers waiting for her.
"Niannian, you're back. Your grandfather has something to tell you," Grandpa Ji greeted her.
Jiang Nian went over and sat down on the sofa: "What's wrong, Grandpa?"

Old Master Ji was furious when he remembered that woman from the Lu family calling him a country bumpkin.
So after returning from the parent-teacher meeting, I started thinking about this matter.
“I don’t care what others say, Grandpa,” Jiang Nian said.
“Niannian, you may not care, but we do,” Ji Yanli said firmly, holding the girl’s hand. “Big brother also wants everyone to know that you are the apple of our Ji family’s eye, our precious darling.”
Family is always the greatest source of strength.
Jiang Nian also knew that her grandfather and brothers truly loved her, which was why they wanted to do these things.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do whatever Grandpa and my older brother decide."
However, at that moment, Mr. Ji's phone rang.
The call connected, and Ji Yuwei's voice came through: "Grandpa, did you and my eldest brother go to Beijing for Niannian's parent-teacher conference? And my sixth brother, when did he return to the country?"
On the other end of the phone, Ji Yuwei was on the verge of tears, her voice choked with sobs and filled with grievance, "Grandpa, am I not a member of the Ji family? Why didn't you tell me these things?"
