So all the wives were waiting for me to break up with them.

"?"

Happy my foot! You, my sister, actually stole my brother!

Chen Youzi looked at her older sister who was clinging to her brother in front of her, and a surge of emotion welled up inside her. She couldn't help but rush over and push Chen Tangtang away.

"Sister, you should know about that matter, so how could you do this!" Chen Youzi was furious, feeling betrayed by her sister. Her sister knew she liked her brother, yet she not only hooked up with him behind her back but also lied to her, telling her to find some kind of male god.

Ha ha.

"You mean, you like Zhou's younger brother?" Chen Tangtang blinked, directly exposing Chen Youzi's secret.

Zhou You: "???"

25. I will never be gentle with her again.

Zhou You had just recovered from the shock of discovering that Chen Tangtang was Chen Youzi's older sister when he heard the second bombshell, leaving him stunned once again.

Actually, he had his doubts about whether Chen Youzi liked him, after all, his behavior back then was quite effective at charming young girls in love.

He asked her several times back then, and Chen Youzi firmly denied it, saying that she only regarded him as her brother. So he never doubted Youzi again.

This……

He frowned, sorted things out in his mind, and then looked at the two girls and the older woman present.

Chen Tangtang was probably unaware of the awkward atmosphere and was trying to get around Chen Youzi.

While stopping her sister, Chen Youzi secretly glanced at him, her expression tense.

Ning Mengmeng, who had caused the trouble, was looking down as if she was thinking about something.

Zhou You first realized one thing: Chen Youzi most likely genuinely liked him. It wasn't that he disliked Youzi, but rather...

Older women are clearly more attractive than younger women. If he were to have another relationship, he would prefer someone who is an older woman who can take care of him.

"Brother!" Ning Mengmeng suddenly stepped forward, her head held high, her hands clenched tightly, and she shouted nervously, "Actually, I like you too, brother."

Everyone: "???"

After she shouted, she grabbed the shocked Chen Youzi and turned to run.

The two girls ran a long distance.

Chen Youzi shook off Ning Mengmeng's hand, heartbroken and unable to breathe. Having experienced betrayal from her older sister and best friend in one day, she felt like she was turning to the dark side.

"Lemon! You lied to me too!"

“Youzi, listen to me.” Ning Mengmeng held Chen Youzi down despite her resistance. “If you had stayed there any longer, your brother would probably have rejected you. If we take this opportunity to escape now, we still have a chance.”

Chen Youzi stopped struggling. Ning Mengmeng's words seemed to make some sense, but she still had a question, "Then why did you confess to your brother?"

“I did it to help you.” A blush, whether real or not, appeared on Ning Mengmeng’s face. “If your brother asks you about today, just say that I like your brother and that I cried a lot. He will definitely be too embarrassed to ask any further.”

“This…” Chen Youzi knew her brother’s personality well and understood that what Ning Mengmeng said was indeed very plausible.

After she figured it out, another question arose: how did Ning Mengmeng know her brother's personality so well?

However, this time she didn't ask directly, but kept the question to herself.

"Wouldn't that be too unfair to you, Mengmeng?" After all, it wouldn't be good for others to misunderstand that Ning Mengmeng is Zhou You's simp.

"No, not at all, cough cough, just a little bit, but it's okay, because Youzi is my best friend." Ning Mengmeng was a little excited at first, but when she noticed that Chen Youzi's expression was a little off, she quickly changed her words.

"How could I, Ning Mengmeng, possibly harm Youzi!"

She patted Chen Youzi's shoulder heavily, her face full of sincerity. She really wouldn't harm Chen Youzi; she just wanted to go on a trip with Zhou You.

"Okay." Chen Youzi nodded gently, that was all she could do for now.

.........

After experiencing three shocking ups and downs today, Zhou You lost all interest in continuing to wander around outside.

He declined Chen Tangtang's invitation and returned home. He stood outside Chen Youzi's closed door for about an hour without saying a word.

The next morning, Zhou You prepared breakfast as usual and left home to arrive at the company early.

He stood on the first floor waiting for the elevator, staring absently at the numbers on the elevator display screen, when he heard footsteps approaching.

"Zhou... Zhou You?" The voices were filled with disbelief.

Upon hearing that unusually familiar voice, Zhou You slowly turned around to look at the girl standing behind him, "Yun Daidai."

"it's me."

Yun Daidai straightened her chest, a joy rising involuntarily in her heart. Zhou You's sudden appearance at her workplace could only be because he came to see her, right?

In other words, he wants to get back together with her?

"Since you took the initiative to apologize, I'll let bygones be bygones for what happened before."

"What are you talking about?" Zhou You looked completely bewildered. He would apologize to Yun Daidai? What kind of international joke was that?

"I just work here. I'd like to ask you, are you following me?"

"You work here too?"

"..."

So that's how it is. Zhou You squinted and understood the whole story.

Is it a tragic fate? The two of them ended up interning at the same company.

"So you didn't come here specifically to see me." Yun Daidai pursed her lips, the joy in her heart receding like a tide. She gripped the small bag in her hand tightly, her feelings becoming very complicated, unsure how to communicate with the person in front of her.

Zhou You adjusted his mindset and smiled very politely. He found that he was no longer rude to Yun Daidai; on the contrary, he was becoming more and more gentle.

Would you actively seek out a stranger?

His meaning is already very clear.

Yun Daidai's mood plummeted, her body trembled slightly, and her heart no longer ached, but was filled with nothingness.

“If you’re free, let’s stop here.” Zhou You looked at the slowly opening elevator doors. “I’ve finally waited for the elevator, and I don’t want to miss it because I’m chatting with you.”

Yun Daidai followed Zhou You into the elevator with her head down. She tried to move closer to Zhou You, but he always subtly distanced himself from her.

After this happened several times, Zhou You's expression turned slightly cold.

"Yun Daidai, could you please not come near me? It's bothering me."

“I…I can apologize to you, apologize many times…” Yun Daidai hunched her shoulders, her attitude appearing very weak.

She trembled, like a fledgling bird caught in a storm, with a pitiful appearance that made people want to pity her.

"You didn't do anything wrong, why apologize to me?" Zhou You stepped out of the elevator, which had reached its stop. "Besides, I don't deserve your apology, Miss Yun."

"Can't you talk to me properly? What do you want from me to forgive me?" Yun Daidai suddenly stepped forward and hugged Zhou You from behind. Fortunately, the two had arrived early and there was no one else in the company.

Zhou You grabbed Yun Daidai's hand forcefully, ignoring her resistance, and pried her hand off his waist.

He looked at Yun Daidai's already reddened eyes and his smile became even gentler.

Does it hurt?

I was in a lot of pain back then.

However, I don't feel pain anymore.

Seeing you in pain makes me happy.

Zhou You took out a small handkerchief he always carried with him and wiped away Yun Daidai's tears. Then he put the tear-stained handkerchief into Yun Daidai's hand.

"I'm giving it to you. I don't want to keep things you've used."

He used to be gentle only to her, now he's cruel only to her.

Turn around, leave, without a second thought.

Yun Daidai covered her chest, tears streaming down her face.

26. My sister needs you right now.

Yun Daidai squatted at the company entrance, crying her eyes out.

Sun Qing, Yun Mingyue's personal secretary, happened to arrive at the company at that moment, and she immediately saw Yun Daidai sobbing uncontrollably.

"Miss?"

Regardless of whether the relationship between the chairman and the young lady is good or bad, as her subordinate, she should be more objective about some things.

As long as Yun Daidai retains the right to inherit the Yun Group, she will remain the eldest daughter of the Yun Group.

Why are you crying here?

"I...I'm fine..." Yun Daidai choked back tears as she wiped them away with the small handkerchief Zhou You had left behind.

The smooth silk glided past her eyes, and she noticed the watermarks on it. Remembering Zhou You's words, she was overcome with sorrow and almost burst into tears again.

However, there were outsiders in front of her, so she held back.

"I just tripped and fell, and it hurts a little." She tried to sound calm, offering a plausible excuse.

But it didn't fool Sun Qing. Just as Zhou You thought, the older sisters had been through a lot. If they thought they could deceive them just because they had some ability, they would only make themselves a laughing stock.

Sun Qing glanced into the office and didn't see the boy. Being a worldly-wise person, she already had a guess in her mind.

He wondered which employee would refuse the eldest daughter of the Yun Group. Even if he didn't know Yun Daidai's identity, she was still so beautiful, with goddess-level looks.

"Do you need me to take you to the hospital, Miss?" Sun Qing didn't expose the matter, but only planned to spend some time observing and then inform Yun Mingyue after collecting enough detailed information.

The chairman should be interested in the specifics of Yun Daidai's relationship.

"Secretary-General Sun, I'm fine." Yun Daidai shook her head gently, expressionless. "Thank you for your concern. I'll go in now."

She turned and walked into the company, her steps faltering, and even as she tried her best to hide her loneliness, her back view still carried a sense of desolation.

.........

Zhou You walked alone towards the secretariat. After the initial joy, he felt a sense of emptiness.

She was ultimately only saddened by losing him, rather than truly understanding him.

"You probably will never understand?"
