"sister!!!"
How could you do this to me?
"You're being so unfair!"
"I'm your real brother!"
"Why do you treat Lu Yao, an outsider, better than my own brother?"
Thanks to Lu Yao's efforts, Qin Luo was successfully provoked.
Qin Luo already disliked Lu Yao, but now his sister, whom he had always wanted to get close to but had never succeeded in, was treating Lu Yao so well. How could he accept this?
Qin Luo was furious.
"Sis, you didn't even see me off when I enrolled at Faston Business School!"
"And they didn't even pick me up from school!"
"Sis, you're being way too biased!"
"I am clearly your blood brother, and Lu Yao is just an outsider!"
"You two have known each other for less than a day, why are you biased towards him instead of me?"
Qin Luo felt increasingly aggrieved as she spoke...
If he weren't an adult, and a boy at that, he might have already burst into tears.
Qin Wan: "..." The mess left by the original owner.
No, the main problem is that there's someone fanning the flames on the sidelines.
Qin Wan glanced at Lu Yao, and upon noticing her gaze, Lu Yao's smile vanished, replaced by a blank and innocent expression, as if he didn't understand what he had said wrong...
Qin Wan: "..." Hehe.
"Qin Luo, you're an adult, not a child anymore."
“You have a car and a driver at home, you don’t need me to pick you up or drop you off.” Qin Wan looked at Qin Luo with disapproval, her expression as if she were scolding Qin Luo for being so unreasonable.
"That's different."
"You are my sister, I like you so much..."
Qin Luo felt very wronged. He had so much to complain about, but when he met Lu Yao's smiling black eyes, all his complaints were instantly choked up.
Yes, with Lu Yao around, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
He was determined not to let Lu Yao see him make a fool of himself!
Lu Yao, you just wait!
The hatred for stealing my sister is irreconcilable!
Because of Qin Wan's lack of understanding and indifference, and even more so because of Lu Yao's spectating and ridicule, Qin Luo couldn't continue speaking. She could only glare fiercely at Lu Yao before running back into the house without looking back.
Qin Wan: "..." She could foresee how miserable her days would be in the coming days.
As long as Lu Yao is in the Qin family, the battle between him and Qin Luo will never end.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan frowned subconsciously, a hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes.
Seeing this, Lu Yao's eyes flickered. He stepped forward and approached Qin Wan, his eyes filled with guilt, and said, "Sister Qin, did I say something wrong?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I didn't mean to make Qin Luo angry, I just... I just..."
"I'm just so happy. From childhood to adulthood, Sister Qin is the first person to treat me this well."
As he spoke, Lu Yao's eyes reddened again.
"The first one?" Qin Wan was taken aback.
"Yes, I grew up with relatives in the countryside and have never met my parents..."
"I was only brought to Kyoto a few days ago and enrolled in Faston Business School. I was only brought to the Qin family home by Uncle Qin yesterday..."
Qin Wan was truly stunned when Lu Yao said this.
However, her stunned silence lasted only a moment. Seeing Lu Yao's red and swollen eyes, she subconsciously took out a tissue from her pocket and handed it to him.
Looking at the small, fair hand suddenly extended in front of him, and the pure white tissue on the fingertips, Lu Yao's heart trembled almost imperceptibly.
You care about me too, right?
[Lu Yao's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 57.]
As Lu Yao took the tissue, his warm fingertips inadvertently brushed against Qin Wan's palm...
The moment their skin touched, they clearly felt each other's "burning" body temperature.
This intimacy gave Lu Yao a moment of satisfaction.
If only I could stay with you forever...
Lu Yao thought to himself.
No, that's not enough.
But in just a second, Lu Yao dismissed that fleeting thought.
He wants more than that!
He wanted her to belong to him alone!
Originally, all he wanted was to see her safe and sound.
But Jiang Huan's changes terrified him, and he didn't feel comfortable entrusting her to anyone!
Anyone but him!
"Thank you, Sister Qin." After accepting the tissue, Lu Yao didn't use it, because his eyes were just red, but he wasn't actually crying.
Just like Qin Luo's eyes turned red with anger...
Thinking of Qin Luo, a surge of violence unconsciously rose in Lu Yao's heart.
What right does he have to demand that Sister Qin make sacrifices for him?
He's just an illegitimate child.
Where was he when Sister Qin was being bullied by Jiang Huan and Su Yue?
Where was he when Sister Qin was being gossiped about by her classmates?
He has never done anything for Sister Qin, so how dare he ask Sister Qin to do anything for him?
"It's all in the past, from now on..."
Qin Wan paused halfway through her sentence, seemingly unaccustomed to such emotional scenes, a hint of awkwardness and unease flashing in her eyes.
But seeing Lu Yao's expectant look, she gritted her teeth and suppressed the awkwardness in her heart.
"If you need any help in the future, you can come to me."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yao smiled. At this moment, his smile was exceptionally sincere, and his gaze toward Qin Wan became even more intense.
[Lu Yao's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 62.]
"Sister Qin, you are so kind." So kind that it makes me like you even more.
Lu Yao dared not utter the last sentence.
"Let's go in," Qin Wan said.
"Mmm." Lu Yao nodded obediently.
As Qin Wan turned around, he subtly slipped the hand holding the tissue into his pocket.
This was the first gift Sister Qin gave him.
He will definitely treasure it.
Thinking of this, a genuine smile of pleasure appeared on Lu Yao's face.
The Jiang family.
Jiang Huan took the afternoon off. He first comforted Su Yue, and to cheer her up, he took her shopping and bought her all sorts of designer brands.
He then had dinner with Su Yue, and finally took her home after she returned home with her purchases before heading back to the Jiang family home.
Jiang Huan looked at his parents in the hall with a surprised expression.
"Mom and Dad? Why are you both here today? Did something happen?"
Jiang Huan knew his parents quite well. His mother was alright, but his father was a complete workaholic and rarely spent any time at home.
It's only 7 p.m. Normally, at this time, Mr. Jiang is either working overtime at the company or attending various dinner parties and social events. He only comes home this early during holidays.
However, today is not a holiday, nor is it a celebration day...
Why are you back so late?
“You’re not getting any younger. It’s time for you to start an internship at a company. Stop being so unambitious and just fooling around outside all day.” Jiang’s father was clearly in a very bad mood.
Jiang Huan was inexplicably criticized and reprimanded even though he hadn't done anything.
"Dad? Who upset you?" Jiang Huan noticed that his father was acting strangely, but instead of arguing with him, he asked with concern.
Just as Jiang's mother was about to open her mouth to explain, Jiang's father suddenly glared at her and stopped her.
Seeing this, Jiang's mother silently shut her mouth.
"Children shouldn't meddle in adults' affairs," Jiang's father said impatiently.
"By the way, did you and Qin Wan have a fight?" Jiang's father asked suddenly, as if he had just remembered something.
It would have been better if Jiang's father hadn't mentioned it, because the moment he brought up Qin Wan, Jiang Huan exploded!
"Dad, whether you agree or not, I'm going to break off my engagement with Qin Wan this time!" Jiang Huan suddenly raised his voice.
