Chapter 672: You’re Not Allowed to Bully Him

“Yubo, I have something to speak to you about. Let’s go to the balcony to have a talk.”

Jian Yubo glanced at Jian Yichen’s smiling face. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded his head.

Then, the two of them talked for a while on the balcony. They didn’t come back until dinner was served.

When Jian Yichen returned, he was full of smiles when he saw the table filled with colorful and fragrant dishes.

“Yiling, you’re the best! You know that I love poached fish!”

However, the thing that made Jian Yichen the happiest was not the fact that the table was filled with delicious food.

Instead, he was just glad that Jian Yubo and Jian Yiling were alive and well. They were still by his side.

Jian Yubo glanced at the dishes placed in front of him. There was minced pork and eggplant, pepper chicken, and sizzling tofu.

All of them were dishes that he enjoyed.

It seemed as though she remembered everything.

Furthermore, Jian Yiling also remembered the foods that Zhai Yunsheng and Luo Xun liked to eat. She took care of everyone.

###

After eating, Jian Yichen tricked Luo Xun into washing the dishes.

Then, he tricked Jian Yubo into bringing Jian Yiling into the study.

As a result, other than him, only Zhai Yunsheng was left in the room.

Zhai Yunsheng looked at Jian Yichen with an amused expression on his face. He already had an idea of what Jian Yichen planned to say.

“Tomorrow is our engagement party. What else do you want to do?” Zhai Yunsheng asked with a relaxed expression on his face.

“So what if you’re getting engaged? Yiling can still cancel the engagement at any time,” Jian Yichen replied with a fox-like smile on his face.

“Well, everyone in Beijing already knows that I’m getting engaged to the daughter of the Jian family.”

“My sister doesn’t have to worry about having no one to marry. She doesn’t necessarily need men in her life. Furthermore, her value won’t decrease just because she canceled an engagement. I don’t believe in those things.”

“And so, are you determined to pick a bone with me?”

Jian Yichen paused for a moment. He wasn’t intentionally trying to make things difficult for Zhai Yunsheng. However, he had to do this.

“Zhai Yunsheng, you’re going to die early. You won’t be able to give my sister the happiness she deserves.”

The words “die early” hit Zhai Yunsheng in his heart.

His face darkened for a moment.

At this moment, Jian Yiling ran out of the study room.

“Yiling... Why are you...”

Jian Yichen raised his head to look at Jian Yubo.

He knew that Jian Yubo had failed to hold Jian Yiling back.

Furthermore, Jian Yiling was not dumb. She knew that something was amiss.

And thus, the words “Brother Yubo” made her escape easily. Jian Yubo simply could not stop Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling stood in front of Zhai Yunsheng and frowned at Jian Yichen: “You’re not allowed to bully him! Don’t say those things about him!”

“Yiling...” Jian Yichen started. He looked at Jian Yiling with surprise.

“You’re not allowed to say those things about him!” Jian Yiling repeated. She began to look angry as her small mouth pursued up.

“Yiling... Even though my words are hard to accept, it’s still the truth... I just don’t want you to be sad in the future.”

Jian Yiling shook her head: “I don’t care about the future.”

She said this with a firm and determined expression on her face.

The firm and determined expression on Jian Yiling’s face made Jian Yichen realize something.

The thing he was worried about the most had finally happened.

She was protecting him. Such words revealed a message to Jian Yichen. Jian Yiling had set her heart on Zhai Yunsheng.

And thus, Jian Yichen exhaled helplessly: “Ah... Okay, I understand.”

In the end, Jian Yichen finally gave up.

Initially, he wanted to break them apart before his sister set her heart on Zhai Yunsheng. He didn’t want her to be hurt in the future.

However, it appeared as though Jian Yiling was actually in love with Zhai Yunsheng already. It was no longer merely about owing him.

And thus, if this was the case, it was meaningless to split them up. If he did so, his sister would only feel pain.
