"Hello, Mr. Lou." Brother Xu politely extended his hand, wanting to shake hands with Lou Yan, but awkwardly, Lou Yan ignored him, because he didn't understand...
"..."
Brother Xu was no ordinary person either; he withdrew his hand without changing his expression and looked at the man.
"When did you first meet my sister, Mr. Lou?"
Lou Yan frowned, finding the man in front of her very annoying. He kept chattering on and on, and he was blocking her and her way out.
She was thinking to herself that if he said another word, she would punch him to the ground. And she was still holding a man's hand, which made her feel terrible.
Lou Yan lowered his head, remaining silent, secretly plotting something in his mind.
The eldest brother of the Xu family had his opinion of men plummet from high to low. He thought his sister should avoid associating with such an impolite and arrogant man.
"Uh, big brother, are you here to buy things too? Do you need my help?" Sui Yi smiled, completely ignoring her second brother Xu Tingran, pretending not to see him. Who told him to say such nasty things a few days ago? Although it was the original owner who did it, the body's core is now hers.
"Your second brother and I are here to buy a formal suit. Grandpa Xu's birthday is in a few days, and we plan to have a big celebration, so we're here to see if we have any suitable outfits for the occasion."
"Oh! Is that so!"
"You don't know?" My sister's reaction is too calm. Before, she would be eager to go to the Xu family as soon as she heard that she was going. Why is she reacting like this now? I can't understand it. Did she have a fight with Xu Jinyu?
"Brother, why should I know? I've been through a life-or-death experience, walked right through the gates of hell, and I've already let go of that big idiot Xu Jinyu. You can't force things, so why should I go out of my way to cause trouble for others?"
"..."
"Little sister, what you did was not fair. Although you can see clearly what you want, why didn't you realize it sooner? You just had to cause trouble. You're such a troublemaker."
"What? I was just testing the strength of their love. Besides, after this experience, their relationship will only get better. For two people to stay together for a long time, they definitely have to go through trials. I sacrificed my reputation to make them happy, doing what a villainous supporting character does. How much did I sacrifice?"
"Yes, yes, you sacrificed a lot, but I'm glad. It's what I wanted to see most that you can let it go." As he spoke, he flicked Sui Yi's nose, which made it seem like he was stepping on a tiger's tail. Lou Yan got angry.
But even though he was mentally impaired, he still had some sense. He silently put the bag in his hand on the ground, pulled out a handkerchief from somewhere, walked to the opposite side of Suiyi, and wiped her nose a few times.
"..." I'm doomed. I can't clear my name now, no matter what I do. It's one problem after another. I've already fooled them, but now I'm going to have to go through a three-way interrogation! The original owner has so many relatives, all sorts of aunts and uncles, they'll take turns nagging me to death.
Sui Yi looked miserable, wishing she could turn back time and start over, but unfortunately the system didn't have that function.
Please delete this file... So sad and heartbreaking.
"Little sister..." The older brother squinted, his sharp gaze piercing Sui Yi's heart like a knife.
"Hehe, brother, um... oh dear! We're blocking their business by standing in front of their shop. How about we find a quiet place to talk?"
Never mind, I'll stall for time and think of a solution first.
"Alright! Follow me." The eldest brother glanced at the second brother, turned around and left, looking displeased.
With a sigh, Sui Yi went to the side to pick up the bag that Lou Yan had put on the ground, but Lou Yan was one step ahead of her. Sui Yi glanced at him and gestured for him to follow her.
The four of them found a quiet coffee shop and sat by the window.
"Good day, sir/madam. What would you like to order?"
"Three lattes and a juice, please!"
"You're welcome, please wait a moment."
After the outsiders left, Brother Xu looked at the people opposite him and found them increasingly irritating.
His tone was cold, and his face was cold.
"Tell me, what's the situation between you and him?"
"It's like this..."
"Think it over before you speak. If you dare to lie, I'll tell Mom and Dad."
Sui Yi twitched her lips. Damn it, her older brother is already an adult, and he still thinks about tattling. How pathetic.
"His name is Lou Yan, the former chairman of the Lou Group. I met him by chance. He looked very down and out, so I thought I would help him out."
"Lou Yan, the former chairman of the Lou Group?" I had heard of this name before. Almost two years ago, the Lou Group experienced some turmoil, which led to a change in leadership. It seems that this matter is another dirty trick in a wealthy family.
However, Lou Yan rarely shows his face, so no one knows what he looks like.
"Little sister, if what you said is true, then you should leave him alone from now on. I heard that the former director of the Lou Group has made many enemies. If you stay with him, it will be very dangerous."
"Brother, it's alright. Besides, look how pitiful he is now. If I don't help him, no one will help him in the future!"
"Speaking of which, little sister, when did you become so kind? It's a good thing that you're thinking of helping others, but I'm afraid you might misjudge people and get yourself into trouble."
"Brother, I promise I will protect myself."
"Shouldn't you be at school?"
"Big brother, she has taken a month's leave from school."
"-_-||, this gossip!" Sui Yi glared at Xu's second brother, her teeth itching with hatred. She needed to find some time to teach this foul-mouthed man a lesson.
"Big brother, I'm taking leave because I've already learned all the material in school, and I haven't lost any credits. I'm taking a month off to take some certificate exams. If you don't believe me, I'll show you on my phone; I've already passed three certificates!" Sui Yi said, opening her phone to show photos of the certificates she had taken.
Luckily, I had the foresight to take pictures of all those certificates on my phone.
"This can't be photoshopped, can it? I've heard that some technologies nowadays make it impossible to detect any trace of it."
Holy crap, is he mute now? I wonder which garbage dump Xu's mother picked him up from, he just can't keep his mouth shut.
"Brother, if you don't believe me, I'll go get the original tomorrow and show it to you. Don't listen to Xu Tingran, he's just talking nonsense."
"Regardless, we can overlook your leave request, but what about you and Mr. Lou..."
"Mr. Lou, given your status, if you were to associate with my sister, it would implicate her. So I think it would be best if you stopped contacting my sister in the future!"
Brother Xu didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point with Lou Yan.
"No, you won't get hurt." The man looked up at Brother Xu, and in that instant, Brother Xu felt a sense of danger, which made him even more determined to keep his sister away from him!
"Big brother, it's alright." To Lou Yan, it was like they were inseparable, like conjoined twins! Sui Yi was certain that if her brother said anything else that might provoke him, he'd probably resort to his fists!
