Crossing the line

Chapter 29 Past
Yun Yuwan was speechless: "...Shut up, Lark, I came here to ask you about my brother, not to let you watch wild men."

Lin Chu finally realized that he had gone too far. He sat up straight and coughed twice. "Your brother's attitude is 'it's good enough'. It's a strange attitude. He sent flowers to show his love for you and his patience is exhausted."

Yun Yuwan looked at her eagerly, waiting for her to make a speech.

Lin Chu was embarrassed: "I don't know this time either."

Yun Yuwan was in despair.

Even Sister Lin, the King of the Sea, doesn’t know, so who can figure it out?

Lin Chu felt strange: "Where is your previous state of bursting with confidence? Why do you always hesitate in front of Wen Yangzhi?"

Yun Yuwan paused for a moment and subconsciously found an excuse: "It's all because of Chen Zhu."

Lin Chu suddenly realized.

Chen Zhu is a Chinese person whom Yun Yuwan met in Belgium.

His family background is very ordinary, but he looks clean and is a gentle person.

She had heard about Chen Zhu's story.

Yun Yuwan drooped her eyelids.

It’s not like she didn’t try to find a boyfriend in Europe.

Because men are just like that.

If it wasn't Wen Yangzhi, it would make no difference who it was.

She wanted to try to get over her liking for Wen Yangzhi.

But ninety-nine percent of the time, as long as she has a meal with the other person, there will be no next meeting.

We must mention the financial men who graduated from colleges and financed projects.

The ABC who deliberately said that his Chinese was not standard, saying that he was surrounded by white people and that he was not very good at speaking Mandarin, was a little sorry.
A handsome Italian scumbag who makes her feel like the floor is slipping.

To sum it up in one sentence, they are all forcing the king.

And as long as they knew that she came from a wealthy family or had a huge inheritance, they would pretend to ask about it casually after not long of knowing her.

So Chen Zhu seemed particularly fresh and unworldly in the group. He never asked about money, nor forced the speed of development. He just started by being friends, gentle and warm.

It turned out to be for her money.

He appears calm on the surface, but in fact, in order to win her heart as quickly as possible, he deliberately designs the car accident, wanting to create a true love drama of caring for her without taking off his clothes.

Unfortunately, Wen Yangzhi received a sudden letter, so she turned around and took a taxi back to pick up his letter.

She had never received a letter from her brother, no matter what it said, as soon as the housekeeper called her, she would go back to read it.

In order not to delay her companions' trip, she asked her driver to take her female friend in the car to the dinner location first.

But just after I got the letter, I received a call saying that the car had been hit and my friend was seriously injured.

She was in such a hurry to get there that she didn't have time to read the letter.

But Chen Zhu was actually there.

When asked why, he said he thought she was the one who was injured.

How did he know her car had an accident if he hadn't been notified?
He asked, "Why weren't you in the car?" She felt something was wrong and asked the detective agency to investigate.

It was discovered that Chen Zhu had used this trick on other girls and cheated them of all their wealth.

Yun Yuwan's self-confidence, which had been soaring for more than 20 years, finally entered a period of fatigue, and the stock market continued to fall, becoming even more precarious than the A-share market.

All the men who approached her after she came of age seemed to be only after her money.

It seemed to have nothing to do with what she, Yun Yuwan, was like.

Yun Yuwan had only received attention and love from her brother.

But her brother only treated her as a sister and had no idea of ​​her secret feelings and possessiveness.

She was unwilling to be his sister until she learned from the housekeeper that Wen Yangzhi had sent her a love letter.

She finally stopped selling off her confidence.

Wen Yangzhi, she didn't even dare to think about him, for fear that she would dream about him and lose him after waking up.

He sent her love letters.

When I asked the housekeeper, she said she couldn't remember clearly, and it was probably something like "I miss you" written on a very special paper.

But it doesn’t matter what her brother wrote. Even if he only wrote “I miss you”, it would be enough for her to burn herself through fire and water to find him.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Lin Chu was really curious: "Why do you like your brother so much? I've never heard you say that you like him. You just have to have him and you have to get him."

Yun Yuwan looked down at the pillow in her arms.

Because a long time ago, this thought had already grown uncontrollably.

There is no such thing as a sudden outburst of emotion in this world.

Before her parents died when she was sixteen, she had never heard that her parents had a friend like Uncle Wen, nor had she ever met Wen Yangzhi.

Until my mother died in the line of duty, and my father died in an accidental fire in his own company shortly afterwards.

Uncle Wen suddenly appeared in front of her and asked her if she would like to come to the Wen family.

Her parents passed away so suddenly, and her collateral relatives were eyeing her parents' inheritance and had already started talking to her in person about how they were going to divide it.

She was extremely wary of someone who appeared suddenly.

But before she agreed, Wen Wei had already hired a lawyer for her, dealt with the tangled interests, and completed a complete set of inheritance procedures for her, and had it notarized, promising that the Wen family would never touch a penny of the inheritance and only adopted her out of friendship with her parents.

It was so sincere that Yun Yuwan couldn't help but nod tentatively.

It was only later that he heard that his mother had done a favor to Uncle Wen, and he could not just stand by and watch.

Although she didn't know what the favor was specifically.

But she didn't expect at that time that she would meet the person she had secretly loved for seven years.

Wen Wei told her a long time ago that he had a 20-year-old brother who was studying at a university away from home and could only come back during long vacations.

She knew that, but she had never thought about what her brother would be like.

There is just one more person who needs to be called brother.

It was only two months after she had lived in the Wen family that she met Wen Yangzhi who had returned home for the holidays.

Yale University has a long summer vacation, from the early summer at the end of May to the intense summer in September.

At that time, Uncle Wen took her to see her brother. Her brother was standing with his back to her, looking at the sedge maple tree he planted. The branches were slanted, and the overlapping palm-shaped five-lobed leaves looked like an oil painting with different shades of color, and small flowers dotted the branches.

I just saw that my brother was very tall.

Wen Wei called out a strange name beside her: "Gangsheng."

Her brother let go of the maple flower he was pinching, turned around, and his eyes fell on her.

Behind me, the maple tree swayed in the wind, and the pale green flower buds trembled gently on the branches.

She will always remember that the sedge maple blooms in May.

The strong and clear sun passed through the thick green maple leaves, and the fine and mottled sunlight and shadows fell on Wen Yangzhi's face. His brows were too deep, and he squinted his eyes slightly under the overly bright sun, so it was difficult to see his eye color, which was flickering. There were several layers of leaf shadows on his tall nose, and the distance between them seemed close and far.

Her brother.

Her mind seemed to go blank with a bang.

My brother was born in the year Hong Kong returned to China, so he was called Hongsheng.

Being admired by everyone was the destiny of the eldest son of the Wen family, but Gangsheng was the first nickname she remembered.

Later, she got angry and wrote in her diary that Wen Yangzhi was extremely cruel. When she missed him very much, she wrote with tears in her eyes, "I miss Brother Gangsheng so much. I really want Brother Gangsheng to come back."
