Chapter 11 Scheming and Spoiled Stepsister VS Cold Childhood Sweetheart Brother 11
Xu Qingran took another picture and sent it over.
Jiang Zhiyi: [Who is this?]
Upon receiving the reply, Xu Qingran immediately went to gather intelligence.
"Brother, brother!" She rushed into the private room and grabbed Xu Qingrang, who was eating, and pulled him up.
"What are you doing here, giggling like that?"
"Go out and see! Brother Xunzhou is outside with a woman!"
"Really?" Xu Qingrang was still a little skeptical, but he was also curious, so he immediately went out to see.
The two siblings peeked over the wall.
They really are siblings; their actions are so comically synchronized.
"Brother, do you know that woman?"
"It seems to be Ji Ning. She is the daughter of Ji Zhong, the chairman of the Ji Group, and has just returned from studying abroad."
"are you sure?"
"It shouldn't be wrong."
"Sir, Madam, how can we help you?"
A waiter suddenly appeared at the corner and asked them very enthusiastically.
The two immediately stood up straight, pretending that nothing had happened.
Their faces were all turned to the other side, as if afraid that the people on that side would notice them.
"It's nothing. You can go ahead and do your work," Xu Qingran replied.
"Okay, please feel free to contact us if needed. Enjoy your meal."
The waiter responded very politely.
The two returned to the private room.
"Brother, what's their relationship? Do you know?"
"How would I know? I'll ask around another day. Why are you so concerned about Fu Xunzhou? Do you like him?"
Xu Qingrang was puzzled by Xu Qingran's reaction.
"It's not that I like him, it's..." Xu Qingran immediately shut up, almost revealing Zhizhi's secret.
Who is it?
"I can't tell you that, but if you have any rumors about Fu Xunzhou in the future, you must tell me as soon as possible."
"Fine, I won't tell you then. I don't want to know anyway. Besides, why should I help you gather information? Are you paying me a salary?" Xu Qingrang said dismissively.
"Yes, I'll pay you! I'll pay you for every message you send."
Xu Qingran silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart.
Zhizhi, Zhizhi, I'm going to go bankrupt for you.
"How many coins do you have? With your meager salary..." Xu Qingrang casually picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it in her bowl. "You can't even afford to order one of the dishes here."
Although Xu Qingran was dissatisfied, what her brother said was indeed the truth.
With her monthly salary of several thousand yuan, she couldn't even afford a single dish here, not even the cheapest one.
Xu Qingran: [That woman is Ji Ning from the Ji family. She just returned from studying abroad. Specific details are currently unknown.]
Jiang Zhiyi: [Received! Love you love you.jpg]
Xu Qingran: [I love you too.jpg]
Men are all unreliable.
Sisters are definitely the best support in the world.
...
"Tuantuan, help me search for Ji Ning."
Yes, Master.
Ji Ning is the heiress of the Ji Group and has business dealings with the male lead, Fu Xunzhou. Fu Chengzhao once tried to match them up, but the male lead didn't like her.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Ji Ning decisively gave up. She can be classified as an insignificant supporting female character.
"There's such a strange classification? What type am I?"
[Master, this is a custom function I came up with to help you understand quickly; it's not an official answer.]
[Master, your type can be classified as: the ultimate daredevil, the female supporting character who squanders a winning hand.]
"What? How can you describe me like that? I'm clearly a very distinctive character."
Jiang Zhiyi felt that although this function was practical, it was really hurtful. Didn't she have any pride?
"Tuantuan, if the male lead makes a move on me now, can I apply for some kind of protection mechanism?"
[Master, we cannot interfere with the male protagonist's actions. Therefore, we hope that while completing the mission, you will not go too far and avoid causing unnecessary harm to him.]
However, as a transmigrator tasked with transmigrating into the book, we can apply for an additional protection allowance for you, which is essentially mission insurance. The cost of the insurance will be deducted from your mission wages.
"Alright then. By the way, do you know how terrifying a jealous woman can be when she gets angry?"
Jiang Zhiyi suddenly asked this question.
【Master, I don't know. This question is beyond my knowledge.】
The simple-minded Tuantuan answered honestly.
"Then you can see for yourself now."
Jiang Zhiyi pushed open the door to the study.
The man is working diligently.
"Brother Xunzhou, were you busy at the company all day? Are you tired?"
Jiang Zhiyi asked him with great concern.
"Yeah, it's alright."
He stopped what he was doing.
"We had a meeting all afternoon. What did you do this afternoon? Did you also have a meeting?"
Jiang Zhiyi asked, seemingly unintentionally.
She leaned against the table, watching him, toying with the pen he had placed on the desk.
"No meeting, I'm busy."
Fu Xunzhou gave an ambiguous answer, saying he didn't want her to know about the dinner party that afternoon.
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Zhiyi suddenly stood up straight, looked at him expressionlessly, her eyes filled with anger at being deceived.
Then, she swept everything off the desk and onto the floor, including his laptop, which he had just been using for work, leaving the room in a mess.
Before Fu Xunzhou could say anything, she immediately blurted out, "You're lying to me!"
Her eyes were red, and tears filled her entire eye sockets, but she tried her best to hold them back and not let herself cry.
The air fell silent.
Jiang Zhiyi had been waiting for him to fly into a rage and scold her for being unreasonable.
But after waiting for a while, the man didn't make a move. She turned to leave, but was pulled back by a hand.
Then she was held tightly in someone's arms.
"I'm not lying to you." The man sighed.
"I have a business dinner this afternoon with some business partners, and my dad will be there too."
She remained silent, and large tears slid down her face one by one.
He carefully wiped away her tears and gently coaxed her, "I really didn't lie to you, don't overthink it, don't be angry anymore, okay?"
Jiang Zhiyi turned her head away, ignoring him. But her heart was pounding; when did the male lead's temper become so good?
The man showered her face with kisses, trying to kiss away her tears.
"Be good," he coaxed. "Will I take you to see it next time?"
The man was exceptionally gentle, and just held her quietly like that.
Jiang Zhiyi's heart was filled with questions.
She had just prepared herself for a heated argument, a big fight, and for the male lead to storm out in a huff.
How come the situation has changed so much now?
Seeing his attitude, Jiang Zhiyi knew it was pointless to make a scene, so she had no choice but to back down.
She said haughtily, "You can't do this again next time, or I won't forgive you."
Her voice still carried a hint of dissatisfaction.
"I know." He kissed her again.
Jiang Zhiyi wrapped her arms around his waist, hugged him affectionately, and snuggled close to him, saying, "It's all your fault."
Fu Xunzhou smiled and hugged her tightly.
"Aren't you angry?" she asked again.
"No, be good, Zhizhi." Fu Xunzhou patted her head and kissed the top of her head.
It's not possible yet; we need to give him more time.
He could only go public with their relationship once he was absolutely certain that she would not be harmed in any way.
Before this, this hidden relationship must have brought her troubles. She might feel wronged, sad, and insecure, and he understood that.
So how could he bear to be angry with her? It's all his fault, it's all his fault.
