Chapter 294 Blinded by Angry
"You said you're going to work at Cheng Shuyan's company tomorrow?" Yun Yun said through gritted teeth. His beautiful eyes, just like Yun Zhi's, were filled with shock, as if Yun Zhi wasn't going to help Cheng Shuyan at his company, but rather to elope with Cheng Shuyan.
"Brother, it's not a job. I'm just going to help out for a few days." Yunzhi was startled by her brother's reaction and tried to explain.
Yun Yun took a deep breath, her face turning even uglier.
"Help me! I've been so busy these past two days that I haven't had a moment to spare, and I haven't seen you come to help me at all. But you're so ungrateful, you haven't even married him yet, and you're already siding with outsiders. Why don't you care about your brother at all?"
What do you mean, "marry him"?
Yunzhi's ears turned red, and she glared angrily at her older brother. "I think you're in good spirits, not like you need any help. But if you can win back your future sister-in-law, you might not need my help anymore. By the way, brother, since it's an online relationship, do you know what your first love looked like?"
Yunzhi knows exactly what the word "heartbreaking" means.
Yun Yun let out a muffled groan, instantly silenced by the hard control.
Yunzhi had only asked casually, but seeing that her older brother was speechless because of her question, she blinked, then covered her mouth, leaned back, and exaggeratedly said...
"No way... Dude, you didn't run into an online scammer, did you? Did you transfer money to her? How much money did you lose, bro? Didn't you download an anti-fraud app back then? Oh, I forgot, there are no anti-fraud apps in Y country."
Yun Yun's lips twitched slightly. Ever since his sister returned to the country, he didn't know what switch had been flipped. She had completely changed from her original obedient and sensible self to a little devil. He silently thought to himself, "This is my sister, my own sister!"
Mr. Yun frowned, slowly put down his teacup, and looked at Yun Yun with a questioning gaze. He didn't mind that his son had had an online romance, but he couldn't accept that his son had been cheated out of money by someone online whose gender he didn't know, even if it was during his high school years.
Yun's father had raised his children from a young age so that the Yun Group would have a reliable successor. If Yun Yun was really deceived by someone on a website, then he would have to question whether there was something wrong with his parenting.
"No, I wasn't scammed, and Xinxin isn't a scammer."
"Oh, I see... What if Xin Xin is a guy?" Hearing that her older brother hadn't been scammed, Yunzhi's eyes lit up, and she crossed her arms, voicing this hypothetical question with a hint of mischief.
A man… Yun Yun’s expression changed.
His expression was like a palette of colors at that moment, a kaleidoscope of emotions. Just imagining this possibility in his mind almost made him gasp for breath. No, it couldn't be. Xin Xin definitely couldn't be a stinky man. He suddenly looked at Cheng Shuyan, who was standing in the background, as if grasping at the last straw. "Xin Xin isn't a man, is she?"
Cheng Shuyan definitely knows Xin Xin's true identity.
Cheng Shuyan touched his nose, and before he could speak, Yunzhi interrupted, "Big brother, maybe your Xinxin had a change of heart and didn't want to hold you back, so she suddenly disappeared. Or think about it, what was the reason for her sudden disappearance? Could it be that you asked to meet or video chat, and your Xinxin realized that she couldn't hide it anymore, so she disappeared?"
The more Yunzhi imagined, the uglier Yunyun's face became. Yunyun seemed to be thinking of something and swayed as if he was about to faint. Yunzhi guessed correctly: before Xinxin disappeared, he did propose to return to China to meet her. Xinxin agreed verbally, but he could not be contacted the next day.
Could it be that Xin Xin is actually a man?
Yun Yun's hand, which was hanging by his side, tightened little by little. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, his eyes were vacant, and he had lost all his energy.
Yunzhi, who had only mentioned it casually, froze when she saw her elder brother looking like the sky had fallen. Then she desperately called for the system in her mind.
'System, could I have guessed right? Is the guy you're dating online really a guy? No way, is he gay?'
[Host, you're overthinking it. It's a woman.]
"It's good that it's a woman," Yunzhi breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at her older brother, who still seemed lost in thought, she regretted joking with Yunyun earlier and didn't know how to handle the situation now.
"Don't worry, it's a girl." Cheng Shuyan rescued Yunzhi from the awkward atmosphere at this moment. After he finished speaking, everyone around breathed a sigh of relief, especially Yunzhi's parents. They were afraid that Yunzhi would really fall in love with a man online. As long as it was a girl, that would be fine. At this moment, Yunzhi's parents didn't even care about the age of the online lover. As long as it was a woman, that was fine.
Yun Yun felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. She coughed lightly, still stubbornly insisting, "I knew Xin Xin was a girl. How could she be a boy?"
Yunzhi chuckled. Her eldest brother was only good at talking. Just then, lightning flashed and thunder roared outside, and a gust of eerie wind blew. The maroon door rattled loudly in the wind, as if someone was knocking on the door.
Yunzhi was startled and instinctively grabbed Cheng Shuyan's arm.
The trees outside the window swayed in the wind, and the howling wind made a piercing sound as it blew through the window. Flashes of lightning seemed to split the darkness outside into several pieces. The next second, large raindrops pounded against the window, the sound growing more and more urgent until a curtain of rain quickly formed outside.
With a muffled clap of thunder, the crystal chandelier overhead flickered, and then the whole world went dark. The pitch-black night made Yunzhi's heart leap into her throat. She tightened her grip on Cheng Shuyan's arm little by little. If anyone had night vision at that moment, they would have seen that Yunzhi's face was frighteningly pale.
A bolt of lightning flashed, instantly illuminating the faces of everyone in the living room.
Just as Yunzhi was on edge, Cheng Shuyan reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently patting her back as if soothing a child. The scent of cedar on his body gradually relaxed Yunzhi. She took a deep breath and leaned against him, feeling as if everything outside had nothing to do with her.
Just then, Yun Yun turned on his phone's flashlight, casting a beam of light in the darkness. He immediately went to check on his sister, whom he remembered was a little afraid of the dark. "Zhizhi, are you... alright?"
Yun Yun was speaking when she saw her younger sister nestled in Cheng Shuyan's arms.
A vein throbbed on his forehead. Considering the special circumstances of the day, he let it go. Otherwise, he would definitely have separated the two of them. Yunzhi blushed and tried to break free from Cheng Shuyan's embrace, but Cheng Shuyan held her waist firmly with one hand, preventing her from escaping.
"Not scared anymore?"
