A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 96 Her body won't need Jiang Yanzhi forever.

Fu Jingbai stood up, gave her a deep look, left with a cold laugh.

Qian Qinglei felt that she had refused cleanly and decisively. If this person had any sense, he probably wouldn't try to take advantage of her again.

As for the phrase "forcing a good woman into prostitution," it was nothing more than a harsh remark uttered by a man who was rejected and disliked after confessing his feelings.

Qian Qinglei didn't take it seriously at all.

She carried the bag and went to the bathroom leisurely.

In the courtyard, Fu Jingbai came out with a cold face, sat down, picked up a bottle of wine, and started chugging it down.

Clearly, the conversation was not pleasant.

Apart from Xu Yang, who was unaware of the inside story, even Shen Xianyu knew what he had just been doing.

Seeing his expression, Gu Yunyi asked softly, "Were you rejected?"

Fu Jingbai glanced at him but didn't say anything.

His face looked frighteningly pale.

Gu Yunyi laughed and advised him, "Give up. She doesn't like you, nor does she like your money and power. You can't force a relationship. If you really want to be in a relationship, you might as well find someone else."

Find someone else.

Is it that easy to replace?

Fu Jingbai's eyes were icy cold. "Even if it's not sweet, I have to try it."

The others were still playing cards when Fu Jingbai joined in after hearing this.

Since Xu Yang lost, everyone asked simple questions.

Now that he's joined in and won the first hand, he's become much more incisive when faced with questions from Xu Yang.

Xu Yang answered questions that weren't particularly inappropriate, such as when they officially became a couple and when they first kissed.

Then they asked if we had ever argued over the years, and what the most serious argument was about.

Xu Yang also gave a shortened answer.

In the final round, Fu Jingbai threw her cards onto the table and asked Xu Yang, "Under what circumstances would you choose to break up with Qian Qinglei?"

Xu Yang was stunned; even someone as slow to realize as he was wasting his time could sense the other party's ill intentions.

He frowned slightly and looked over.

The two men locked eyes for a moment.

It's unclear what message they were reading in each other's eyes.

Xu Yang said, "Under no circumstances will I choose to break up."

That's really good.

Fu Jingbai smiled slightly and made her evaluation in a manner that could be described as arrogant.

"Just out of the ivory tower, I haven't been beaten down by society yet."

Some of it is humiliating.

Xu Yang's expression changed drastically. "What do you mean?"

Fu Jingbai was still smiling, a mocking smile.

He said, "I want to teach you a lesson so you'll know that the heavens are high and the earth is thick, and that you shouldn't speak so absolutely."

—I will never choose to break up under any circumstances.

He simply refused to believe that love within the ivory tower could be so strong.

It's nothing but a castle in the air; a gust of wind and it'll fall to the ground and turn to sand.

Two men confronted each other in the darkness of night.

Both Gu Yunyi and Shen Xianyu spoke up in an attempt to ease the tension.
In the corner, Tang Wanwan quietly watched this scene.

From the moment Jiang Yanzhi pressed down on her wrist, forbidding her from going to see Qian Qinglei, she stopped speaking.

Even now, despite the awkward atmosphere, it remains quiet.

Jiang Yanzhi knew that the girl was probably really angry with him, and he had no intention of trying to persuade his brother. He turned his head and whispered his apologies.

Tang Wanwan seemed not to hear, not even glancing to the side, and continued to stare at the two boys over there.

She's now just afraid they'll start fighting.

This tense atmosphere continued until Qian Qinglei came out of the shower. She went straight to Xu Yang, glared at Fu Jingbai, and without arguing with him, she took her boyfriend's arm and led him to their classmates.

On the way, he explained something in a low voice.

Xu Yang gently rubbed the top of her head, then put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his embrace.

Qian Qinglei tiptoed to kiss his chin, tilted her head back and smiled at him, seemingly coaxing him a few more times. Xu Yang finally smiled as well.

The two looked every bit the sweet and loving young couple.

The farce that started with Fu Jingbai has come to an end.

Seeing Qian Qinglei and Xu Yang leave, Tang Wanwan couldn't sit still any longer.

She stood up, looked at Fu Jingbai and Gu Yunyi, and finally at Jiang Yanzhi, and smiled faintly, "You two have fun, I'm going back to my room first."

Angry.

She seems angry.

Gu Yunyi realized this and stared at Tang Wanwan's departing figure, feeling wronged. "Was helping a brother a mistake?"

He didn't do anything else, except to keep Xu Yang from leaving when he wanted to, giving his brother some time to talk to Qian Qinglei.

It seems as if he's aiding and abetting evil.

Is it wrong to give your brother a helping hand?
Jiang Yanzhi also felt a headache coming on. He tried his best to coax his girlfriend all night, but he couldn't even get a glance from her.

Girls are so hard to coax when they get angry.

That night in the car, he was so abrupt with her, but he only needed a few words to appease her.

Today, he only created an opportunity for his brother to talk alone, and Fu Jingbai did nothing, yet she got so angry.

Thinking of Tang Wanwan's cold face all night, Jiang Yanzhi felt a little helpless. "How should I coax a girl?"

"A gift?"

Seeing that his usually calm and collected brother was in such a predicament because he had angered his girlfriend while helping him, Fu Jingbai came up with an idea: "Give her some gifts that girls like."

Clothes, jewelry, bags, watches—aren't these what girls like?

Fill her up completely.

It made her unable to get angry.

Jiang Yanzhi thought this was a possible solution and nodded, saying, "I'll give it a try."

In his view, it is only natural for a boyfriend to give his girlfriend gifts to make her happy.

But Shen Xianyu, who was at the same table, heard their conversation and his expression gradually became strange.

I really want to ask them if they thought Wanwan would lack these things.

The Tang family was a scholarly family, full of learned people, unlike those newly rich families.

They may appear unassuming, but they possess a profound cultural heritage. Any decorative item or calligraphy piece in their home is an antique passed down through generations.

It is a unique, extinct copy, and countless copies have been preserved.

Having read many books, one is also spiritually enriched. Although one focuses on cultivating one's daughter's inner qualities, one will not pursue those high-end luxury items.

But that doesn't mean Tang Wanwan lacks these things.

They only have one daughter. Whatever she wants, would the Tang family not give it to her?

Besides, there's him too.

He would eagerly present any good thing he had to that girl.

What could she possibly lack?
In Shen Xianyu's view, Jiang Yanzhi had clearly crossed her bottom line tonight, and she couldn't be 'coaxed' by such small favors.

That's right, her body needs Jiang Yanzhi.

So whether he tries to coax them or not, they can't break up right now.

But this situation won't last a lifetime.

Her body won't need Jiang Yanzhi for the rest of her life.

This is enough.

Shen Xianyu raised his arm, drank the wine in his glass, stood up, and left the table first.
