My younger brothers are so fierce!!! I'm clearly the eldest brother!

The scene shifts to a large conference room.

Sitting at the end of the long table, Jiang Guanqing maintained a polite smile and spoke in fluent English, "I wish us a pleasant collaboration."

The blond man on the other end of the screen smiled and nodded, "Looking forward to the signing next week."

The moment the video cut off, the tense atmosphere in the conference room suddenly relaxed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. "The pressure was immense, but it's finally over."

After a three-hour overseas video conference, Jiang Guanqing rubbed his throbbing temples and, with trembling fingertips, pulled a piece of candy from his pocket and popped it into his mouth.

"Everyone worked hard tonight. Your bonus will be doubled this month. Be careful on your way home; the company will reimburse your travel expenses."

"Long live President Jiang!!!"

Bai Xin glanced at his phone. "The late-night snacks have been delivered. Each one is pre-packaged. You can eat them at the company or take them home."

"Okay, quick, quick, my stomach is growling..."

People walked out of the meeting room in twos and threes.

Bai Xin tidied up the scattered documents on the table and said in a low voice, "President Jiang, let me drive you home."

Jiang Guanqing shook his head, "No need, too much trouble..."

Yann: Bro, I changed my college application to finance. I want to help you.

The light from the phone screen was blinding, making Jiang Guanqing's already pale face look even worse.

23:52

Jiang Guanqing frantically turned on the computer, logged into the official website for filling out college applications, and entered Jiang Yan's account and password...

Hurry, hurry!!!

Every second the system loaded felt like a death knell, and Jiang Guanqing anxiously bit her hand as she pressed her fist to her lips.

The moment the page loaded, Jiang Guanqing's eyes quickly locked onto the "Modify Application" button, and he quickly re-entered: Medical School, Clinical Medicine (Neurosurgery).

A notification pops up indicating successful modification.

Jiang Guanqing slumped back into his seat, exhausted, and covered his face with his hands. He chuckled softly. It was so close. If the meeting had ended a few minutes later, everything would have been too late.

A deep sense of lingering fear welled up from the bottom of Jiang Guanqing's heart, and for the first time, the thought of hitting her younger brother arose.

As soon as midnight struck, Jiang Guanqing took his phone and called Jiang Yan. As soon as the call connected, before Jiang Yan could speak, Jiang Guanqing spoke first.

"Jiang Yan, you've really grown up. Who gave you permission to change your college application?"

"Didn't you say that Peking University's medical school was better than Tsinghua University's, which is why you chose Peking University? Why change your application!"

Jiang Guanqing realized his tone was a bit harsh, so he softened his voice, "Xiao Yan, your older brother is handling things at the company, so you can focus on studying medicine."

On the other side, Jiang Yan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his face tense. "Big brother, the time has passed, and the application cannot be changed."

"I've changed your college application back for you."

Jiang Yan's pupils shrank. "Who told you to change it? Studying finance was my own decision. What right do you have to change it for me?"

Jiang Yan didn't know what her feelings were right now; they were all mixed up.

"Xiao Yan..."

The phone rang with a beeping sound as it hung up.

Jiang Guanqing paused, pursed his lips. He had acted too impulsively. Xiao Yan was worried about him; he was too fierce.

Bai Xin was somewhat worried. "President Jiang."

Jiang Guanqing looked at Bai Xin and forced a smile, "I'm fine."

Jiang Guanqing stood up, closed his laptop, and said, "Bai Xin, go home early and drive safely."

"it is good."

Jiang Guanqing left the conference room and went straight to the underground parking lot to drive home.

The car was parked in the yard. Jiang Guanqing pressed down on his slightly uncomfortable stomach and looked up at Jiang Yan's room, where the light was still on.

Jiang Guanqing knocked on the door. "Xiao Yan, I want to talk to you."

Jiang Yan opened the door with a cold face. After opening the door, she didn't even glance at Jiang Guanqing, and turned around to sit on the sofa.

"Xiao Yan, I was a little harsh when I called you. I apologize."

Jiang Guanqing leaned forward slightly. "Big brother knows that Xiaoyan only cares about me, so she wants to apply for finance to help big brother, but big brother hopes that you will study what you want to study."

Jiang Yan stood up abruptly, her voice choked with emotion, "Jiang Guanqing, I'm eighteen years old. I can take responsibility for my actions. What right do you have to change my college application?"

"You leave early and return late every day, single-handedly supporting the company and protecting us under your wing. Don't you feel incredibly great?"

Jiang Yan's eyes reddened, and tears fell. "I've thought it through carefully. I don't want to study medicine. I want to join the company. I want to drive all those people who are pressuring you out of Yuehua. What makes you think that making me study medicine is for my own good!"

Jiang Guanqing's face suddenly turned pale. "But you wanted to study medicine. You told me that yourself when the results came out. You said you wanted to become the best doctor."

"Xiao Yan..."

Jiang Guanqing stood up, wanting to wipe away Jiang Yan's tears, but Jiang Yan turned her head away.

Xiao Yan avoided him.

Jiang Guanqing's fingertips curled slightly, and he felt a tightness in his chest.

Jiang Yan turned her back, her voice calmer, "Big brother, you can go out now. I need to calm down."

Jiang Guanqing slowly withdrew his hand, tears falling in a patter. "Xiao Yan, Big Brother... I'm sorry."

Jiang Guanqing walked out of Jiang Yan's room, closed the door, and as soon as she returned to her own room, she collapsed to the ground, her suppressed sobs echoing in the room.

The next day, Jiang Guanqing went on strike for the first time, wanting to talk to Jiang Yan.

"Xiao Yan, your older brother was wrong. I shouldn't have changed your application without your consent. I've never thought of myself as great..." All he wanted was for his younger brothers to be safe, happy, and free, nothing more.

That's enough.

Jiang Yan's voice was cold. "Once this is over, I'm going to study medicine." With that, she left.

Watching Jiang Yan's retreating figure, Jiang Guanqing lowered his eyes in dejection.

From that day until the start of the school year, the relationship between Jiang Yan and Jiang Guanqing remained delicate. Jiang Guanqing tried countless times to clarify things with Jiang Yan and ease the tension, but was always rejected.

As time went on, Jiang Guanqing became increasingly cautious around Jiang Yan.

In early September, Jiang Guanqing and his younger brothers took Jiang Yan to school. They had agreed that Jiang Yan would go home after military training, but Jiang Yan did not return.

After classes officially started, Jiang Yan always used the excuse of being busy with classes to stay away from home. When Jiang Guanqing sent messages to Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan replied less and less, and eventually even became a read-only message.

Changing college application choices without permission has become a thorn in Jiang Guanqing's side, causing her constant pain.

Jiang Guanqing went to Peking University to look for Jiang Yan more than once, but was mostly rejected. Even when he did meet him, he would leave after only a few words and then go abroad for exchange studies, never returning for years.
