"Brother Chu?" Jin Ruoxi looked even more dazed. She was not stupid. When she first saw the police and the criminal officer, she had guessed that this matter must be related to Chu Xixuan. But now that she heard it from her father's mouth with her own ears, she still couldn't accept it in her heart.
She suddenly bent down, covered her face and burst into tears, sobbing and complaining: "Why? Brother Chu, why do you treat me like this? Even if he doesn't like me anymore, but at least... at least we are childhood sweethearts, we grew up together! The friendship between us is no less than that between him and Lan Ziye, why is he so cruel? To treat me like this!"
Jin Yun sighed softly and said, "Since ancient times, people have only heard the laughter of new people, but who would hear the tears of the old ones? What's more, Chu Xixuan is notoriously cold and ruthless. He has no heart!"
"No heart? No heart? Why does he care so much about Lan Ziye? He does so much for her? If he hadn't been bewitched by Lan Ziye and insisted on marrying her, I wouldn't have lowered myself to collude with the bat demon!" Jin Ruoxi shouted unconvinced.
Jin Yun looked at Jin Ruoxi with disappointment and said, "You are good in every way, except that you can't keep your cool!" After a pause, he said, "I've inquired about it. The engagement between Chu Xixuan and Lan Ziye was arranged by the old man of the Chu family!" So it's legitimate, so how could you possibly beat him?
"Grandpa Chu? Impossible. Grandpa Chu has always liked me. He has always wanted me to be Brother Chu's wife. How could he let Brother Chu get engaged to Lan Ziye?" Jin Ruoxi said in disbelief.
"Before Lan Ziye appeared, you were indeed the best choice for the Chu family. No girl in the entire Lanxuan Continent could compare with you in terms of appearance, character, or family background. But, Lan Ziye has purple eyes!" Jin Yun said seriously.
"What do you mean?" Jin Ruoxi realized that Jin Yun was about to talk about the most crucial thing, and her expression suddenly became serious. She wiped the tears from her face and asked.
Jin Yun's face grew serious as he spoke, "Three thousand years ago, purple pupils were a symbol of power on the Lanxuan Continent. Led by the head of the Lanxuan Continent, the Lan family, with purple pupils, remained firmly entrenched as the continent's foremost family, unchallenged. Their power surpassed all other powers on the continent, and families like ours, including the Chu family, had no choice but to submit! But then, for some unknown reason, the Lan family never produced another girl with purple pupils, and they gradually declined!"
"You just said that was three thousand years ago. Three thousand years ago, purple pupils were a symbol of the king. Does that mean Lan Ziye is the king now?" Jin Ruoxi sneered, "That's nonsense!"
"But it's undeniable that Lan Ziye's performance at Lanxuan Academy is truly outstanding. Just based on his strength in the high school league, the claim of him being the Purple-Eyed King is undeniable!" Jin Yun said seriously, "Times have changed now. It's impossible for Lan Ziye to be the head of the family and lead the family to dominate the Lanxuan Continent. But which family wouldn't want such a talented daughter-in-law? Who wouldn't want to possess the genes of a king? To be honest with you, if Lan Ziye wasn't already engaged to Chu Xixuan, I think the head of the family would have proposed to the Lan family on your brother's behalf long ago. The Meng and Zhu families would definitely be eyeing him covetously as well."
Jin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment. His elder brother was already engaged. His father and grandfather would rather betray their trust and bring Lan Ziye to their Jin family. What about his brother Chu who was not engaged?
