——
Upon entering the study, Chi Yan reluctantly sat down opposite Chi Jingyu after making him a cup of tea, saying, "Brother, please speak frankly."
He didn't think he and Chi Jingyu had anything to reminisce about.
Having lived under the same roof for so many years, the two of them were the type who couldn't see eye to eye and couldn't exchange a single word.
Now that they've separated, do they have things to talk about again?
Chi Jingyu's deep eyes scrutinized him, and she sat up straight with a calm expression: "Then I'll be blunt. You and Tang Ning are not a good match. You might as well set her free sooner rather than later."
Chi Yan's nonchalant expression paused, and he slowly raised his eyes:
Tang Ning?
He called out to me so affectionately!
As for what he said, it was utterly ridiculous.
Chi Yan scoffed, "Whether it's suitable or not is up to me and her to decide. What right do you have to say that, brother?"
He narrowed his eyes, a hint of mockery flashing in them. "Or is it that you've changed your mind, brother?"
His eyes and brows were cold and sharp, a stark contrast to his usual carefree and unrestrained manner, and his tone was equally impolite.
Chi Jingyu was hit where it hurt, and his face stiffened and turned ugly for a moment. He pursed his lips and said, "You know, she could have married someone better."
"A better person?" Chi Yan's lips curled into a half-smile. "Big brother, you're not talking about yourself, are you?"
The sarcasm in his voice was undisguised, and Chi Jingyu frowned: "So what if it is?"
Chi Yan's face turned completely cold: "Why should I? You were the one who abandoned her back then, and now you're the one who regrets it. You've taken advantage of everyone in the world, just because you have the nerve to do it?"
Chi Jingyu's face also darkened, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes: "There's been some misunderstanding between her and me... Anyway, second brother, take my advice, you two are not a good match, I can give her a better life."
Chi Yan wanted to laugh, perhaps wanting to see what other outrageous things he could say. He said expressionlessly, "What about Shen Xiwei? Weren't you deeply in love with her just a moment ago? And now you're putting on an act? Brother, I never realized you were such a fickle person!"
"What do you know?" Chi Jingyu gritted his teeth, a flash of anger in his eyes, which he quickly suppressed, and he returned to his cold demeanor. "You divorce Tang Ning, and I am willing to marry her as the Crown Prince's wife. As for Shen Xiwei... I will also make arrangements for her."
Chi Yan suddenly stood up, his face full of mockery: "Chi Jingyu, what do you think you are? You think you can get whatever you want and discard whatever you don't want? Tang Ning is a living, breathing person, not some object!"
Chi Jingyu was taken aback, instinctively wanting to retort, but the other person followed up with, "When you came to me today to say these things, did you ask for her opinion? Do you even know if she was willing? No, because you've never truly respected her!"
Chi Yan sneered repeatedly: "You speak so eloquently, but you're just trying to satisfy your own selfish desires! The one who truly doesn't deserve her is you!"
Chi Jingyu was deeply shocked, her eyes momentarily glazed over, and she couldn't help but doubt herself.
What Chi Yan said didn't seem entirely unreasonable.
To his shock, these words actually came from Chi Yan, whom he had always looked down upon.
After Chi Yan finished speaking, he was too lazy to waste any more words with him, and raised his hand: "My humble abode is simple and my hospitality is lacking. Please leave, elder brother!"
Chi Jingyu's expression turned slightly cold. He gave him a deep look and stood up.
"Chi Yan, I will prove it to you."
Only after the person had already left did Chi Yan come to his senses, and he almost laughed in anger.
He gritted his teeth inwardly, his eyes turning cold.
Declaring war on him to his face, saying you want to steal his wife, do you really think he's dead?
