Who do you like?

Fu Yiming's eyes flickered. When Fu Yijian asked this question, a woman's face suddenly flashed through his mind. It was extremely vivid, and her joys, sorrows, anger and happiness could all affect his emotions.

He didn't say anything for a long time. Fu Yijian's heart grew heavier and heavier. He was afraid that he might hear a woman's name from his eldest brother's mouth. He rubbed his face nervously.

Fu Yiming saw through his brother's thoughts at a glance, so he asked, "Who do you think I like?"

Fu Yijian looked up at him, and then heard him say, "Do you think I like Ye Ruohuan?"

At that moment, when Fu Yijian heard the familiar name coming out of his eldest brother's mouth, the expression on his face began to break, and he didn't know how to change.

"Not really," Fu Yiming looked at the prosperous night scene of the downtown outside, "I admit that I feel very special for Ye Ruohuan, and I even pursued her for a while without telling you. But since she clearly rejected me, I have not overstepped the mark. I have not done anything to let you down." He said the last sentence while looking into his brother's eyes.

Fu Yijian glanced over, but he didn't dare look his elder brother in the eye, because what he said hit the nail on the head.

Fu Yiming continued, "Later, I helped her solve her uncle's problem. I admit that I was wrong to hide this matter from everyone, but I did it for Ye Shuo, not because of Ye Ruohuan, and certainly not because I still have feelings for her."

Hearing this, Fu Yijian looked at his elder brother in shock. Fu Yiming did not stop and continued, "At first I also thought that my feelings for Ye Ruohuan were between a man and a woman, but later I found out that I had special feelings for her because I liked Ye Shuo, but it was definitely not a love between a man and a woman, I swear."

Fu Yiming looked straight at Fu Yijian and said the last words. Fu Yijian was shocked. He came to his senses and said, "Brother... I... I..." He couldn't even utter a word.

He used to be self-righteous. What he saw was not the truth. He misunderstood Ye Ruohuan and caused them to break up. He really deserved it!

Fu Yiming directly pointed out what he was thinking: "Yijian, you misunderstood Ruohuan. She doesn't know about these things. She was the one who was kept in the dark from beginning to end."

Fu Yijian held his head in his hands with a look of pain. He now knew that he had wronged Ye Ruohuan and hurt her heart. The resolute and sad expression on Ye Ruohuan's face on the night of their breakup suddenly flashed through his mind. His heart felt like it was stabbed by a bayonet and it hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.

He looked up at Fu Yiming helplessly, his eyes red, and asked, "Brother, I'm sorry, I, I'm now..." He didn't know what to do.

Fu Yiming patted Fu Yijian on the head with his big hand, just like he comforted his brother when he was a child, and whispered, "It's okay. If you still like her, go get her back."

Fu Yijian stared at his elder brother in disbelief, as if grasping at the last straw, and asked, "Can I...can I get him back?"

"Of course you can. Believe in yourself and believe in the girl you once loved." Fu Yiming encouraged him sincerely.

The one I once loved?

Fu Yijian looked ahead, her every smile and frown emerged in his mind. He smiled bitterly at himself, thinking that it would be difficult to get her back.

But it doesn't matter, just like his elder brother said, if you still love her, then go get her back. He rubbed his face with both hands to make himself more sober.

"Brother, thank you," Fu Yijian said hesitantly, "Before...I misunderstood you."

"It's okay." Fu Yiming smiled. Wasn't it because his brother trusted him that he never came to argue with him?

The two brothers finally put aside their past grudges, smiled at each other, clinked their beers in their hands, and drank them all in one gulp.

Meanwhile, Xia Linan and Ye Ruohuan were squeezed together in Ye Ruohuan's small bed.

Xia Linan suddenly remembered something, frowned, and asked the person lying next to him: "Huanhuan, tell me the truth, do you still like Fu Yijian?"

Ye Ruohuan suddenly lost all her sleepiness. She looked at the ceiling light. Was Fu Yijian still in her heart? She was not sure, but every time she mentioned this person, her attention would be drawn to him, and then her head would be occupied by this person for the whole day.

She thought about it, and finally answered Xia Linan's question: "I don't know, but every time someone mentions him, my head is full of him, and I can't get rid of him no matter what, so... I should still like him."

Xia Linan immediately asked, "If you still like him, why do you want to break up with him?"

When asked about the reason for the breakup, Ye Ruohuan smiled bitterly.

Xia Linan realized that she had asked an inappropriate question, so she changed the subject and said, "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it."

"It's not that I can't tell you," Ye Ruohuan paused, "but the reason why we broke up was stupid."

It was really stupid. They broke up because of a misunderstanding. Neither of them knew how to communicate and try to explain their feelings. Her temper was like this, and so was Fu Yijian. So the two of them came to this end.

Under the warm yellow light, Xia Linan saw the expression on Ye Ruohuan's face. She was silent for a moment, hesitating whether to tell the truth about the incident. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore. She didn't want to see Ye Ruohuan like this anymore, so she told everything: "Huanhuan, Fu Yiming didn't deliberately hide your uncle's affairs from you to cause you to quarrel and break up with Fu Yijian. He did that for Ye Shuo, not for you."

Xia Linan told the whole story in one breath and felt much better.

After hearing this fact, Ye Ruohuan was stunned for a moment, and then her reaction was very calm, "Well, I know, thank you for telling me."

Xia Linan was a little surprised, "No more? No other reaction?"

"Even if it's a misunderstanding, Fu Yijian and I are a thing of the past, and no one can change this fact."

Xia Linan expressed his worries: "But, seeing you like this now, I feel really distressed."

Ye Ruohuan turned her head and hugged Xia Linan, comforting her: "I'm fine, I'm fine." She pulled the corners of her lips and smiled.

Xia Linan sighed, "How come you met a scumbag, and I also met a scumbag?"

"Huh?" Ye Ruohuan looked puzzled. "What kind of scumbag did you meet? Who bullied you?" She thought a man bullied Xia Linan, so she asked anxiously.

Xia Linan patted her head, "Oh, don't you know me yet? If anyone bullies me, I will be the first to fight back. I am absolutely not afraid!"

"That's right." Ye Ruohuan nodded, but she also reminded him worriedly: "Protect yourself well."

Xia Linan waved his hand and said casually, "Don't worry."
