"Sister, my brother is attending the Zhou family's banquet tonight. Do you want to go?"
"Of course, you know I'll go wherever your brother is."
At that moment, a deep, pleasant voice on the other end of the phone seemed to carry a hint of probing: "Then...can I go too?"
"Of course, you can go if you want to." Wan Ge had just finished speaking when she heard the other person's reply.
"But I don't have an invitation, they won't let me in."
Wan Ge glanced at the invitation on the table and replied, "Why don't you just go in as my date?"
"Would you like to take me with you, sister?"
"Okay, you need to be at my house before 6:30."
"Okay, I will definitely be there on time."
The boy's gentle and obedient voice carried a hint of joy, and Wan Ge felt inexplicably happy after hearing it.
Thinking of how the boy was treated at home, she softened her tone, which was unusual for her: "I'll have someone send you a suitable dress later, so don't worry."
"Sister, you're so kind, thank you."
Wan Ge heard that the other person's voice sounded a little choked up, as if she had been moved to tears.
They are brothers, yet they receive completely different treatment. This is because there are rumors circulating that one of the brothers is an illegitimate child.
The two were less than two years apart in age, but Mrs. Shi disappeared for five years. It is said that Mr. Shi also pursued his wife for five years. Although there were such rumors, the Shi family never made it public.
Therefore, outsiders cannot guess from this whether the older brother or the younger brother is an illegitimate child; perhaps only their family members know the truth.
As their neighbor, Wan Ge noticed the differences between the two brothers and naturally began to speculate about their identities.
However, he didn't care about the identities of the two brothers, because she had awakened a memory that didn't belong to her when she was eight years old.
He learned from his memories that Shi Fan was the male protagonist of this world, while she had always been the female supporting character who loved but could not have him.
As the eldest daughter of the Rong family, she had always been able to get whatever she wanted since she was a child. She didn't believe that she would experience unrequited love like in the drama.
So she had been kind to Shi Fan since childhood, but unlike that memory that didn't belong to her, she had always kept him at arm's length, keeping him hanging on.
Had she ever considered that in the story, her unrequited love for Shi Fan made her merely a pawn he could use to rise to power, to start his company, and to seize all of the Rong family's assets? Then why couldn't she do the opposite?
She wanted him to love her but not be with her, and she wanted to use him as a stepping stone for herself.
So, unlike in the original story, her status with Shi Fan has undergone a complete transformation. Now, Shi Fan treats her like his ideal woman and is constantly pursuing her.
As for finding out his location, Bai Yueguang (Shi Fan's nickname) needs to cultivate goodwill towards him. Shi Fan's younger brother, Shi Li, is a pretty good tool.
She was well-behaved and sensible, and often reported Shi Fan's location to her.
Wan Ge still had a fairly good impression of Shi Li, and in the storyline she foresaw, it seemed that she and Shi Li hadn't had much interaction before.
She could just take advantage of it, and Wan Ge would certainly do the same. So after awakening her memories, her relationship with Shi Li wasn't as distant or unfamiliar as it had been in her memories; on the contrary, their relationship was quite good.
