He Zhou asked coldly, "What do you mean by that?"
He Chen blinked: "We're in the same boat."
He Zhou's expression turned extremely ugly, and his thin, cold eyes could almost be described as sinister.
Screw the idea of feeling sorry for each other!
Will he share He Yi's plight?
He Yi and He Jing barely exchanged a few words, yet he held a place in He Jing's heart. How could He Yi possibly share the same fate as him?
He Zhou suppressed his surging emotions and retorted sarcastically, "No wonder Fifth Brother doesn't like you, you're the one who's sick."
He Chen smiled good-naturedly: "I misspoke, I apologize to Third Brother."
He Zhou stormed into the kitchen, but his mind, unusually calm, became clear.
He thought that he had indeed been too indifferent to worldly affairs lately, to the point that he had fallen to the same level as He Yi.
It seems I really need to fight for him so that He Chen understands his place in He Jing's heart.
Apart from He Sui, they are absolutely no match for him!
...
At this moment, inside the room.
After closing the door, He Ning looked at He Jing, who was sitting at her desk secretly crying, and called out, "Jingjing."
He Jing hastily wiped away her tears, looked up at him, and revealed a bright smile.
But her eyes were red, her hair was messy, and she looked quite disheveled.
He Ning had never seen He Jing like this before, and felt his heart break. He strode up to her, grabbed her shoulder, and asked, "Who bullied you?"
He Ning's voice was tense, with an air of impending battle.
He Jing said "no," lowered her head, clenched the tissue in her hand, and slowly said, "Second Brother, let's go out. It seems like I'm in charge of cooking tonight."
He Ning took a deep breath, squatted down and knelt in front of her: "Fourth brother said that I offended you. I did something wrong. You should tell me."
“I’m your brother, not someone else.”
He Jing started crying again. She covered her mouth and nose with a tissue and sniffed. She pinched her nose until it was red. Her little face looked as pitiful as could be.
Her voice, softened by sobs and tinged with a nasal tone, said, "I ran into my second brother's classmates from No. 1 Middle School today, and they said I'm not your sister."
He Ning's eyes turned cold: "Anything else?"
“I explained it to them, but they didn’t believe me. They said it was Cheng Yi who was waiting for you to get out of school every day at the gate of No. 1 Middle School.”
"Second brother, am I being too petty? It's such a small thing, but I'm so upset."
"I'm sorry, second brother, I just couldn't help it."
He Ning's expression was beyond terrifying; the raging anger that had gathered between his brows was like a storm at sea, capable of swallowing a person whole.
He immediately explained, word by word, "She didn't. You were the one waiting for me at the gate of No. 1 Middle School after school, and you were the one who walked home with me every day. I have no contact with her privately. It's just that others are spreading rumors and wrongly accusing you."
“Jingjing, you’re not petty. You’ve been holding back for a long time. There’s no one more generous than you. Your second brother will give you an explanation.”
He Jing asked worriedly, "Second brother, are you going to confront your classmate?"
It's normal for misunderstandings to arise between classmates.
He Ning said, "I cannot tolerate such rumors."
He will investigate this matter thoroughly and solve it at its root.
He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen a second time, and neither would Cheng Yi...
He had thought that Cheng Yi had really changed for the better and no longer harbored any hostility towards He Jing, but he was wrong. Such a thing could not possibly be a coincidence.
There must have been someone guiding him to this point, otherwise all his close classmates would know that He Jing is his biological sister.
