Chapter 1397 The Battle to Protect My Boyfriend! (Day 10 of Sunday-Saturday, please vote with monthly tickets!)

"He Chen!"

Grandma Ding couldn't help but mention He Chen's name.

"Who is He Chen?" Ding Yan asked curiously.

"My soon-to-be boyfriend!" Ding Xun said somewhat guiltily, but still quickly made his statement to secure his place.

Her older sister's curiosity made her somewhat uneasy.

If you're this interested just from seeing He Chen's photos, imagine how excited you'd be to see He Chen in person!
"Big sister, none of that matters. What matters is that we want to do charity work. Do you support us?" Ding Xun changed the subject directly, which surprised and impressed Ding's grandmother.

My eldest granddaughter is a successful businesswoman who earns a lot of money. If we can get some money from her, we'll have more resources to accomplish great things.

My little granddaughter really loves what she does; she brought up a great topic to change the subject.

"You're doing charity? Forget it!" Ding Yan immediately sobered up when she heard her younger sister ask her for money and shook her head.

"You should do your job well and fulfill your social and family obligations first; that is the greatest act of charity!"

"What do you mean?" Ding Xun asked, clearly displeased. "Are you implying something about your grandmother?"

"Stop dragging Grandma into this!" Ding Yan retorted. "Grandma has worked hard her whole life and has long since fulfilled her social and family obligations. Now that she's retired, she wants to contribute her remaining energy, which is her noble act!"
But you're different!
You've been working for a year since you graduated from university, have you brought home a single penny?
You're broke every month, yet you keep asking us for subsidies!
And you, in this situation, are still talking about doing charity?

Who exactly is doing charity?
"You or us?"

"We're all family, why make such a distinction?" Ding Xun pouted and said, "So, according to you, everyone who does charity work with Grandma has to be a retired senior citizen?"

But the truth is that in Grandma's group chat, she's the only elderly person; everyone else is a young person!
What do you say about that?

"Most of them are similar to you, just 'busy with nothing to do' who won't starve even if they don't work," Ding Yan complained.

"With family support, there's no need to worry about money! Otherwise, any working person at this age would struggle to support themselves and have to work hard for the future, leaving no money or time to think about charity!"

"Big sister, you!" Ding Xun's face turned red with anger.

The truth hurts the most.

The eldest sister, Ding Yan, was telling the absolute truth.

She might not care much normally, because being favored makes her feel fearless.

Even if you, my older sister, have a problem with loving me, I still have my grandma and mom to love me!
But now that she's doing charity work and wants to use it to win over He Chen, she cares a lot about this kind of talk.

After all, she was wary of defining He Chen as her potential boyfriend, directly to prevent her older sister from possibly taking a liking to him.

In this situation, when her older sister points out that she is using her sister's money for her own charity, there's a sense that she's using her sister's money to win over He Chen, but not letting her sister use it herself—a rather unethical act.

"So, according to you, Huang Yimei is also busy with nothing?"

Ding Xun couldn't express these feelings, but she was still annoyed and resentful, so she directly shifted the topic to Huang Yimei. As soon as she spoke, she saw her older sister's surprise and immediately felt satisfied.

Previously, her older sister always used Huang Yimei to lecture her, acting as if Huang Yimei was her role model and she should learn from her. Now she wanted to ask Huang Yimei if she was also the 'busybody' that her older sister had just dismissed.

"What does this have to do with Rose?" Ding Yan looked at his younger sister with a smug expression, then a thought struck him: "Does the photographer of this photo, that guy named He Chen, know Rose?"

"Stop rambling! I'm asking you a question!" Ding Xun's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly changed the subject, shouting for her older sister to answer her question first.

"Huang Yimei also frequently participates in this kind of charity. Didn't you say before that she also organized a charity sale of autistic paintings?"
With her spending so lavishly, does she really earn all her money on her own? She's just like me, a recent graduate, how much can she possibly earn?
It's all thanks to family!

Why don't you go and talk to her?

You even used her as a role model for me, but now that I've tried to emulate her even slightly, you turn on me again with a whole new set of excuses. What's wrong with you?

"How can that be the same?" The eldest sister, Ding Yan, wouldn't be fooled by her younger sister. Her first words were a killer move.

I don’t know if Rose’s family is sponsoring her, but the charity sale she organizes is both a matter of her own goodwill and a necessity for the company, so it’s a win-win situation. The expenses are covered by her company!

Is this the same as you just asking me for money?

"Forget it, forget it, big sister, you really have no heart at all, I can't be bothered to talk to you anymore!" Ding Xun knew she couldn't win an argument with her big sister, so she used her temper as an excuse to ignore her. Seeing that her big sister still wanted to ask about the relationship between He Chen and Huang Yimei, she covered her ears and pretended that she didn't want to listen to her big sister.

This made it difficult for Ding Yan to press further, but knowing her younger sister well, she didn't need her sister to say anything.

She already knows everything she needs to know.

Now we just need to find an opportunity to verify it.

The next day.

Ding Yan went to Huang Yimei's company, pretending to be passing by, and asked Huang Yimei to have lunch with him. He brought up his younger sister Ding Xun's matter, but when he saw that Huang Yimei didn't want to talk about it, he felt a little unhappy.

"Rose, do you know He Chen?"

Ding Yan spoke frankly, and seeing Huang Yimei's expression change, he felt a great sense of satisfaction.

I told you all to hide yourselves and treat me like an outsider!

"My younger sister told me he's her fiancé. What's he like?"

"Nonsense!" Huang Yimei said angrily, "He Chen is my boyfriend. I clearly introduced him to Ding Xun when we met yesterday. How could she say such a thing!"

"Is that so?" Ding Yan seemed surprised, but that wasn't her focus at all: "So this He Chen is the mastermind behind your painting?"

"Hmm." Seeing that things had come to this point, Huang Yimei could only give a vague reply, still unwilling to admit that it was a painting they had done together.

They were one at that time!

You have me I have you!
"Look at you, if you had said so earlier, this wouldn't have happened." Ding Yan retorted meaningfully, "Don't worry, I'll talk to Ding Xun about it when I get back!"

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Huang Yimei thanked her, glanced at Ding Yan, thought for a moment, and said, "Senior Sister, would you like to meet the expert behind me?"

"Is it convenient?" Ding Yan asked reservedly.

"There's nothing inconvenient about it," Huang Yimei said with a smile. "He's my boyfriend, and you're not an outsider, so you'll meet him sooner or later."

If she could, she would want He Chen and Ding Yan to never see each other again.

But since Ding Xun was so shameless in his advances and made such a big move, and Ding Yan clearly also really wanted to meet this master behind the scenes who shared his artistic interests, there was no way to stop him.

Since that's the case, it would be better to let Ding Yan meet her first, and then use the "two peaches to kill three warriors" tactic to let Ding Yan and the Ding Xun sisters fight each other first.

It always manages to drain their energy, time, and good mood, giving them enough chances to win this battle to protect their boyfriend.
