After being diagnosed with a terminal illness, the fake heiress binds herself to a rough-looking man

Jiang Yu'an walked over.

The leather shoes made a very soft sound as they stepped on the solid wood floor, yet each step resonated deeply with the heart.

His tall figure blocked half of the light in the corridor.

Jiang Yu stood at the door, silently lowering her eyes.

He cursed inwardly.

Help.

She just wanted to kick the ball away.

I never intended to invite the King of Hell himself.

Jiang Yu'an stopped between the two.

He looked at Jiang Ruoruo first.

"What do you want to know?"

Tears welled up in Jiang Ruoruo's eyes.

"Big brother, I..."

"ask."

Jiang Yu'an's voice was soft and her tone was even.

Jiang Ruoruo was forced back half a step, her back pressed against the wall.

She opened her mouth, hesitated for a long time, and finally squeezed out, "I just feel that you're too good to my sister."

Jiang Yu'an looked at her.

"so?"

Jiang Ruoruo's tears fell down in a flash.

"I am your biological sister."

The corridor was eerily quiet.

Jiang Yu's brow twitched violently.

coming.

No matter how he answers this question, he's likely to run into trouble.

She was about to speak and change the subject.

Jiang Yu'an has already spoken.

"I know."

Jiang Ruoruo raised her head.

Jiang Yu'an's tone was flat.

"No one denies that you are a daughter of the Jiang family."

"What your parents gave you, what the Jiang family gave you, you won't give less."

He paused.

"If you are unwilling to marry into the Huo family, I will step in and stop it for you."

Jiang Ruoruo was stunned.

Jiang Yu was also taken aback.

Jiang Yu'an continued, "But Jiang Yu has been in this family for twenty years. A simple medical certificate can't erase all the connections."

Jiang Ruoruo bit her lower lip tightly and lowered her head.

Jiang Yu's fingers gripped the edge of the door frame.

The wood grain hurt my fingertips.

If this had happened in the past, she might have thought that the nickname "brother" was well-deserved.

But now, she only feels danger.

Because she could no longer distinguish what kind of relationship Jiang Yu'an was referring to as "relationship".

Jiang Ruoruo finally broke down in tears, asking, "What about me? What have I been for the past six months?"

Jiang Yu'an glanced at her.

"You don't need to compare yourself to her."

"I can't compare to her." Jiang Ruoruo's voice trembled, and her shoulders heaved violently.

Jiang Yu'an did not respond to that sentence.

He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.

"It's late, let's go back to our room."

Jiang Ruoruo stood still.

Jiang Yu'an's gaze turned a little cold.

"Ruoruo".

Two words.

Jiang Ruoruo shrank her shoulders.

She wiped away her tears and turned to walk towards her room.

Halfway there, she suddenly turned back to look at Jiang Yu.

There was no longer any sign of tears in his eyes.

All that's left is resentment.

Jiang Yu felt a chill run down her spine from being stared at.

This feud is now truly over.

The door slammed shut.

Only Jiang Yu and Jiang Yu'an remained in the corridor.

Jiang Yu immediately took a half step back and placed her hand on the door.

"Brother, I'm going to sleep too."

Jiang Yu'an looked at her.

Jiang Yu just wanted to close the door as soon as possible.

A hand is pressed against the door panel.

His joints were clearly defined, and the cuffs still retained a faint, cool fragrance of pine and cypress.

Jiang Yu'an didn't use much force, but the door didn't budge.

Jiang Yu looked up at him.

"Is there anything else?"

Jiang Yu'an lowered his head, his gaze falling on her face.

The two were very close to each other.

The man's oppressive aura was overwhelming.

"The question she just asked you."

Jiang Yu's fingers tightened silently around the doorknob.

"Which one?"

The overhead lights in the corridor were a bit dazzling.

Jiang Yu'an remained silent.

Jiang Yu could only bite the bullet and pretend to be clueless: "She asked too many questions, I can't remember them all."

The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.

"Um."

Jiang Yu'an withdrew his hand.

Go to bed early.

The door finally closed.

Jiang Yu immediately locked the door.

She leaned against the door and let out a long breath.

A small orb of light floated out from beside the curtains, its tone serious: [Host, the hidden storyline involving Jiang Yu'an is becoming increasingly dangerous.]

Jiang Yu walked to the bedside and threw herself heavily into the quilt.

"I know."

[It is recommended to immediately prioritize Huo Li's conquest strategy.]

Jiang Yu opened her eyes: "You make it sound like I can fly away right now."

[School starts the day after tomorrow; this is an excellent opportunity. Host, please make sure to seize it.]

Jiang Yu rubbed her temples and pulled out her phone from under her pillow.

Huo Li posted another message ten minutes ago.

【inconvenient?】

Jiang Yu leaned against the edge of the bed, staring at the screen.

She suddenly longed to hear Huo Li's voice.

type.

It's inconvenient. Old Chen will take me to school the day after tomorrow.

After sending it, she felt it wasn't safe enough, so she added another sentence.

Don't come to the school gate, you might bump into them.

Huo Li replied quickly.

Whom did I bump into?

Jiang Yu tapped the screen.

My brother.

There was a half-minute silence over there.

Jiang Yu thought he was going to lose it again.

A new message popped up.

Are you afraid of him?

Jiang Yu's fingers stopped.

Afraid?

They were probably afraid.

It's not the fear I had when I was a child of him scolding me.

It's a different kind of fear, one that's hard to explain, a fear of not knowing what he'll do next.

Just like the moment he reached out and blocked the door, she felt her breath catch in her throat.

She typed slowly.

A little.

Just sent out.

Huo Li called directly.

The screen suddenly lit up and vibrated. Jiang Yu's hand trembled, and she quickly pressed the answer button, turned down the volume, and crawled under the covers.

"Feed?"

There was a whooshing sound of wind on the other end of the phone.

There was also the crisp sound of a metal wrench falling onto the concrete floor.

Huo Li lowered his voice.

Did he bully you?

The man's voice came through the receiver, sounding somewhat low and hoarse.

Jiang Yu's eyelashes trembled.

She pulled the blanket up to cover her chin.

"no."

"Then what are you afraid of?"

"You don't understand," Jiang Yu said in a muffled voice. "Now, every step I take in this house feels like stepping on a landmine. Jiang Ruoruo just came over and questioned me about my relationship with my brother."

The sound of the wind in the background stopped.

Huo Li asked, "What did you say?"

"I said no." Jiang Yu paused, "I never did."

A soft laugh came from the other end of the phone.

Jiang Yu's ears burned: "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing."

"You clearly smiled."

Huo Li's voice deepened, carrying a hint of roguishness.

"Okay, I won't go to the school gate the day after tomorrow."

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're smart to know what's good for you."

next second.

I'll wait for you on the back street of the school.

Jiang Yu: "..."

She knew it.

This man only listens to half of what he says.

"Huo Li, stop messing around. My brother is coming to school to take me to lunch the day after tomorrow."

"What time is it."

"have no idea."

"understood."

"What do you know?" Jiang Yu asked warily.

Huo Li didn't answer that question, but only said, "Don't wear a skirt on the first day of school."

Jiang Yu glared at the blanket: "Why do you care what I wear?"

"Wear pants, it'll make running easier."

Jiang Yu was stunned.

"Why are you running?"

A crisp click came from Huo Li's side.

"Run out and see me."

Jiang Yu's ears were burning hot.

She buried her face in the pillow, her voice muffled: "Stop trying to seduce me."

Huo Li, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, smiled even more broadly.

"Who seduced whom first?"

"Who will spend 100,000 yuan to buy my services first?"

Jiang Yu was so choked up that she couldn't say a word.
