Chapter 395 Figured it out
Wen Yixuan became more and more excited as he spoke, describing with great emotion the bleak future that he imagined might happen to his own brother.
The evil little brain imagined the miserable situation of Wen Yi Che being poor and destitute, starving and cold, and having to rummage around in a trash can in tattered clothes for a half-eaten steamed bun. He also had to fight with a stray dog, and in the end, the dog snatched away his only remaining food, and he could only cry bitterly.
When Wen Yixuan thought about how miserable his brother was, he burst into laughter. Although he was still busy crying and complaining to Wu Chu about his worries, his mouth had actually stretched to his ears, and his smile was too exaggerated and unbridled.
“Wuwuwu… What should I do, cousin, please save my brother. I don’t want him to have to pick up trash in the future, wuwuwu…”
Wen Yixuan wiped the tears of joy from the corners of his eyes, sniffed, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing again.
The child was thinking evil things in his mind!
If such a day really comes, he will lead a group of people to kick over his brother's trash cans one by one!
He was not even allowed to pick up the trash!!!
Wen Yixuan was almost going schizophrenic from thinking so much, and Wu Chen heard him choking and sniffling, and thought it was a child crying.
Although she could not imagine and did not agree that Wen Yiche would end up picking up garbage because of dropping out of school and returning home, she resonated with Wen Yixuan's expressive and overly invested strong emotions.
He quickly comforted her:
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoxuan. I'll call your brother and teach him a lesson!"
"Wow, cousin, you are such a nice person..."
Wu Qi comforted Wen Yixuan a few more words, and after hanging up the phone, he called Wen Yiche without saying a word.
As soon as the call was connected, Wu Qu heard the broadcast of airline flight information coming from the other end of the phone. His heart sank. This time, he didn't even need to go through the verification process. He just went straight to the output, leaving Wen Yi Che stunned.
All in all, after much persuasion and Wu Chen's unremitting efforts, he finally dispelled Wen Yi Che's dangerous idea.
Wen Yiche was just being too picky in the heat of the moment. He had been very serious since he was a child, and like Bai Yuan, he was a so-called "other people's child" who had never done anything out of line.
In all these years, he had only done this one extraordinary thing, and his own brother leaked the news. He then teamed up with Wu Chen to nip the conspiracy in the bud.
After Wu Chu's lecture, he calmed down, his brain regained its composure, and he finally figured it out.
"...You're right. It was me...I was impulsive."
After hearing what his eldest cousin said, Wu Qi finally felt relieved.
It’s okay to be impulsive, just listen to advice!
Although Wen Yiche sometimes gets stuck in a rut, fortunately he is not a particularly stubborn person, nor is he the kind of person who will not change his mind no matter whether something is right or wrong!
As long as you convince him with reasonable and well-founded words, explain the interests to him clearly, get to the key points, and then appeal to his emotions and reason, Wen Yiche will still be able to distinguish right from wrong.
However, even though he heard that Wen Yi Che had given up his impulsive plan to return home, Wu Chen still did not take it lightly. He had to watch Wen Yi Che leave the airport and go all the way back home before he could feel at ease.
Wen Yiche felt a little embarrassed that his little cousin was on guard against him.
In other families, the older brothers set examples for their younger sisters and when problems arise, the older brothers come forward to resolve them. But it's the other way around here, and Wu Chu has to worry about him late at night. Thinking of this, he feels even more guilty.
"Thank you, Xiaoshao, I——"
"We are all family, there is no need to thank each other." Wu Chen sighed, "It would be better if you come less often."
If it happens a few more times, she's afraid that the filter she has for her older cousin will be shattered!
Wen Yiche responded, then thought of something and spoke hesitantly, "Bai Yuan's side..."
"I understand. I won't tell her and won't let her know that you almost came back today." Wu Chu was like a worm in Wen Yi Che's stomach. He expressed his opinion before he could finish speaking.
This was not for any other reason, the key point was that she was afraid of embarrassing herself in front of Bai Yuan!
Her eldest cousin acted stupid in the middle of the night. What if Bai Yuan held him responsible and thought that all her family members were like this and that she was also a fool? What should she do?
Wu Qi's thoughts wandered for a long time, and he thought about a lot of random things, but in the end he couldn't help but turn back to the topic. His gossipy heart was flaming with anger, and he asked about the things he cared about most.
"Brother, do you..." Wu Qi pretended to be casual but actually pricked up his ears, asking without missing a single detail, "Do you like Bai Yuan?"
"I like you." Thinking of Bai Yuan, Wen Yiche chuckled. Without waiting for Wu Chen to say anything, he said evenly, "I like you and Xiaoxuan, too."
Before Wu Qie could raise her lips and scream like a boiling kettle, her eldest cousin suppressed it so gracefully that she could not help but sigh:
——His eldest cousin is so calm and steady!
Wen Yiche added: "You are all my brothers and sisters, and I still love you all equally."
"Hey, hey, I'm so sorry... Hey! That's not what I was talking about!"
When his eldest cousin, whom he had admired since childhood, personally admitted that he liked her, Wu Qi was distracted for a moment, with little flowers blooming around his cheeks, but he quickly came back to his senses.
She was almost led astray by her older cousin.
"I mean, you don't have... uh, any extra thoughts about Bai Yuan?" Wu Chen asked hesitantly, "Bai Yuan is different from us. We are cousins with a blood relationship. Bai Yuan is just the daughter of my cousin's best friend. And I heard from my cousin that when you were young, you almost got engaged... didn't you get engaged as children?"
"What era is this now, Xiaoxun? An arranged marriage is just a joke among adults. It doesn't count."
Wen Yiche seriously repeated to Wu Chen what his mother had said to him when he was a child.
"Besides..." Thinking of the similar question Qin Lingzheng had asked him before, Wen Yiche wondered why everyone asked him the same question. He repeated what he had said to Qin Lingzheng, "I only regard Bai Yuan as my...sister, just my sister. Don't say such things again in the future. If Bai Yuan hears it, she will be troubled."
Wu Yu listened to Wen Yi Che's words. Because of the phone, he couldn't see the expression on his face at the moment, but from the serious tone he spoke, it didn't sound like he was acting, so there was no need to say more.
I felt a little disappointed that my cousin didn't have any feelings for Bai Yuan.
It's all Qin Lingzheng's fault. He was so hateful. When he was in junior high school, he bit people indiscriminately. Wu Qi was chased and bitten by him many times, so he couldn't stand his dog-like look of "I am the only one in the world who understands Bai Yuan best, and we are the best in the world."
She originally wanted to get her eldest cousin to exert some effort, so that he could really be with Bai Yuan and successfully slap Qin Lingzheng in the face so that she could vent her anger.
But seeing that Wen Yiche had no idea, knowing that a forced melon would not be sweet, he could only give up and said regretfully:
"Well, if there is none, then there is none."
Then, she reminded Wen Yiche of the matter, "Since there is no such thing, then don't think about interfering in the affairs between Bai Yuan and Qin Lingzheng. He is different from you. He really likes Bai Yuan and is working hard to be with her. I heard that he almost went crazy in order to go to Haiqi for Bai Yuan."
It would be fine if Qin Lingzheng was not mentioned. Once he was mentioned, Wen Yiche hesitated again, "As long as he doesn't delay Bai Yuan anymore..."
However, after hearing that Qin Lingzheng was willing to work hard for Bai Yuan and make changes, Wen Yiche's expression finally eased a lot.
"What's the point of delaying it..." Wu Chen said, "It's a matter of mutual consent. Although I don't like him being with Bai Yuan, since Bai Yuan didn't say anything, maybe she actually likes Qin Lingzheng to be with her. There's no guarantee that it will really work out in the future. If you disturb them again and ruin it, it won't be a good thing. Let alone Qin Lingzheng, even Bai Yuan should have some ideas about you. As the saying goes, it's better to demolish a temple than to destroy a thing..."
Although Wu Qi didn't like Qin Lingzheng, he couldn't do such a wicked thing. What's more, it wasn't just Qin Lingzheng who was affected, but also Bai Yuan.
Of course, if Bai Yuan is not interested in Qin Lingzheng and finds someone else later, that would be another matter. At that time, she would definitely agree with it and be the first to jump out and add insult to injury. She would definitely laugh at Qin Lingzheng loudly for three days and three nights!!!
His cousin's words were reasonable and well-founded, and Wen Yi Che was quickly convinced by her.
While quietly listening to her chatter, he also began to react to his own previous arbitrariness and impulsiveness.
Indeed, what happened to Qin Lingzheng had nothing to do with him, but he couldn't let Bai Yuan be implicated because of it.
He was not thoughtful enough in this matter and jumped to conclusions without conducting a thorough investigation.
For a period of time afterwards, Wen Yiche repeatedly thought about what Wu Qi had said to him, and thought carefully about the relationship between himself, Qin Lingzheng and Bai Yuan.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that Wu Chu is right.
In any case, apart from Qin Lingzheng's attitude towards the people around him, he has always been sincere to Bai Yuan, which is obvious to all. They have seen it all over the years of knowing each other and know him inside and out.
If Qin Lingzheng can really be with Bai Yuan in the future, everyone will be happy. If he interferes and makes trouble, it will be bad and will cause many troubles.
If he accidentally ruined their relationship, and Bai Yuan found someone who was inferior to Qin Lingzheng in every way, that would really hold Bai Yuan back and delay her most important event in life.
After thinking this through, although Wen Yi Che still had some grudges in his heart, he no longer insisted that Bai Yuan go abroad to study with him like before.
As a result, she began to like Qin Lingzheng a lot more and started to try to accept the fact that Bai Yuan might be with Qin Lingzheng in the future.
For this reason, when Wen Yi Che saw Bai Yuan coming to the UK alone to participate in the competition without Qin Lingzheng by his side, he was surprised but did not care too much.
Anyway, no matter what, based on Qin Lingzheng's personality, he would definitely not let Bai Yuan be alone with him for too long.
Maybe it's just a temporary constraint, and it might suddenly refresh somewhere in two days, and jump out and yell at you again.
This is what is called late but arrived.
Instead of focusing on why he didn't see Qin Lingzheng with Bai Yuan, Wen Yiche would rather spend more time with Bai Yuan while he was away and enjoy the rare quiet atmosphere without being disturbed.
Similarly, when he walked out of the school gate following the message left by Bai Yuan that day and bumped into Elizabeth and Anna who were walking back, and learned from them that Bai Yuan was with her boyfriend, Wen Yiche's first sigh in his heart was:
finally come.
It feels like a heavy hammer has finally fallen and the dust has settled.
In his opinion, this is how it should be.
Qin Lingzheng always strives to be present in every moment he and Bai Yuan are alone together, just like when they were in junior high school.
No other possibilities were considered at all.
She also never thought that the person who came today might not be Qin Lingzheng, and the so-called "Bai Yuan's boyfriend" might actually be someone else.
When Wen Yiche walked to the school gate, he saw Bai Yuan standing with a boy from afar.
Although the man had his back to him and he couldn't see his face clearly, his intimate attitude when interacting with Bai Yuan and the harmonious atmosphere when the two stood together told Wen Yi Che accurately that the man was Qin Lingzheng.
What's more, the next second, under Wen Yiche's gaze, the other party suddenly leaned close to Bai Yuan and kissed him without any warning, and Bai Yuan did not show any displeasure or resistance. He not only accepted the kiss calmly and naturally, but also took the initiative to kiss the other party back.
When the two of them stood together, they looked as harmonious and well-matched as every other couple I had ever seen, a perfect match made in heaven.
This made Wen Yiche even more certain that the person could not be anyone else except Qin Lingzheng.
Wen Yiche, who witnessed all this, couldn't say what he felt.
A sourness he had never felt before slowly spread from his chest, his stomach ached a little, and his heart felt empty.
He originally thought that as an older brother, he would be sincerely happy for Bai Yuan when he saw that she and Qin Lingzheng were finally together.
But the reality is quite the opposite.
In addition to the tightness in his throat, his strong resistance to the facts also made him suddenly want to escape.
But soon, Wen Yi Che regarded this mentality as a lingering memory and reluctance to part with Bai Yuan.
After all, Bai Yuan is the sister he watched grow up. After so many years, she has finally grown from that little girl to the age where she can freely fall in love and date boys.
To him, there was always a sense of unreality, as if he were in another world.
He thought it was normal for him to have such thoughts, and it was possible that he did not only have such strong thoughts and feelings towards Bai Yuan.
To be honest, if one day Wu Chu brought a boy home and proudly announced to herself that he was her boyfriend, she would take him home as a guest, be intimate with him, or do other normal things that couples would do.
Wen Yiche felt that his heart would definitely not be particularly calm, and would not be much worse than it was at this moment.
Even if the boy was someone she knew, this feeling would not diminish in the slightest.
