Problematic Sister Fell In Love With Me

Chapter 360: Chapter 361 Little People’s Dignity

“I’m not trying to fool you…” Ziyuan smiled softly, “I won’t destroy your relationship, and I don’t mind being your mistress. Do you remember the dream I told you when I was a kid? I said that I don’t want to live a tired life as my mother did. I just want a complete home, and a man who cares about me like you. In terms of the rest, I don’t really care.

“Xiao Nan, after this, I don’t owe that man, and that family anything. I’m free now, but I also no longer have a home. So if you are willing to give me a home, I won’t go anywhere. I will stay by your side, be your mistress, and give birth to your children. My requirements are not high. I just hope that you will come to see me often if you have time. That’s all I want… So, please, don’t do anything stupid, okay?

“You just need to pretend that you don’t know anything and help the Third Lady to complete the cooperation project just like how they planned. As long as you don’t provoke those people, your position and status in Fengchang will rise. Then you will have the ability to keep me and feed me. But if you provoke those people, you will lose everything. Those people are not the kind of people that we can afford to offend. If they are angry, they have the ability to make sure that you will not be able to succeed in your lifetime…”

“I don’t care,” I said calmly, “It doesn’t matter if I can’t succeed in my life. Being manipulated like a doll and controlled like a chess piece, I don’t want that kind of success. I know I am not a man with great ambition, but I have confidence that as long as I try, I will still be able to earn enough money to feed you.”

I held Ziyuan’s face and said seriously, “Xiao Zi, you don’t need to sacrifice yourself to protect me. You are the silly one, not me. Do you really want that kind of life?”

Ziyuan was dazed because her lies were exposed by me.

“You have no reason to forgive me. You only have the reason to hate me. You refuse to say that you hate me because the person who instigated you has not seen the result he imagined, so you can’t leave. You need to comfort me, protect me, and sacrifice yourself, so that I will follow his script. In that way, I will not offend those people and then obtain fake success, right?”

Ziyuan refused to answer, nor did she nod her head. She just bit her lower lip very hard.

I sighed and said with a smile, “Maybe I am a male chauvinist, but as I said just now, this is how I live. I’m not the one with psychological pressure, you are. Xiao Zi, I never want to hide my responsibility to you from other people, it’s just not the time yet… The only thing I have to do now is to find out that bastard who treats us all as the chess pieces on his chessboard!”

Just as I knew Ziyuan, Ziyuan also knew me. She knew that she would not be able to change my mind anymore, so she yelled frantically, “Why are you so stubborn? ! Even if you know who he is, then what? You won’t be able to win…”

“I never thought about winning.”

“Then what exactly do you want?”

“I just want to slap him in the face,” I smiled and said, “And tell him that little people also have dignity.”

Ziyuan was stunned, and her eyes once again teared up.

. . .

“Was… I too childish?” Mo Fei looked like she was curling up in the passenger seat in a weird posture because of the angle of my view. After seeing Liusu gradually getting smaller from the rearview mirror, she asked this sentence inexplicably.

I was dazed for a moment before I realized that she was referring to the matter of comparing her figure with Liusu in the office in front of Ziyuan and me.

“No, I think I’m more naive than you.” I chuckled.

“Why?” Mo Fei was taken aback. After noticing my abnormality, she sat upright and asked seriously, “Chu Nan, Why do you suddenly want to see my uncle?”

“I want to ask him about something.”

“About Xue Ziyuan?” Mo Fei was a smart woman, after all. She had guessed it already. It was just that she didn’t point it out in front of Liusu and Ziyuan.

“Yes,” I didn’t deny it, “But it’s more than that.”

Mo Fei asked in confusion, “What else do you want to ask him?”

I did not answer her question, “What do you know about Ziyuan?”

“I know everything that I don’t want to know, but I know nothing that I want to know.” I didn’t know if she was dissatisfied that I didn’t answer her question, she actually answered my question ambiguously. There was even a clear trace of jealousy in her tone.

“I’m asking you a serious question, can you be more serious?” I was not in the mood to play with her at all.

“Okay, okay. Please don’t get mad at me.”

Seeing that Mo Fei complied so obediently, I feel awkward. It made me feel like our positions had been swapped. Clearly, she was my superior, right?

Mo Fei didn’t seem to mind that I was talking to her in such a domineering way. She said obediently, “I know she was your childhood sweetheart. You two met when you were in elementary school. Because she didn’t have a father, you didn’t have a mother, and both of you grew up in a single-parent family, so you were looking after her in every way possible. She had a gentle and soft personality, it could even be said that she was a little timid.

“Because she was a mixed-race child, she was often teased by other kids. Then you would stand up for her every time and get beaten by other kids. It was because of that, she was very clingy to you… Chu Nan, why did all the people you help were women? Are you trying to make them all fall in love with you?”

Er… Mo Fei’s remark was quite unreasonable. What did she mean by all the people I helped were women?

“I am kind by nature, alright. Stop changing the topic, what else do you know?”

“Huh! Stupid good guy,” Mo Fei said in a huff and then “I also know that she likes you… And like me, she is another woman who is poisoned by your gentleness…”

“Ahem!” The jealousy in her words became stronger and stronger, I quickly gave a dry cough, signaling that she was digressing again…

Mo Fei blushed, snorted coldly, and continued, “I know you grew up together. It wasn’t until five years ago that the man who abandoned her mother returned and took them to the United States. Then you two separated, but I don’t know why you lost contact with her…

“Her father is quite rich, but her family relationship is quite complicated. Her mother met her father when he was engaged in trade in Bei Tian City. It was an extramarital affair, and she was an illegitimate child. So her father took them home after his wife passed away, then she went to Harvard University and got an MBA degree, and then she returned to Bei Tian city… This is all I know about her. I heard those things mostly from Liusu and Xue Ziyuan herself. Oh right, Officer Dong also told me some…”

When Mo Fei told me what she knew, there was an obvious sign of dissatisfaction and jealousy in her tone. It seemed that she was complaining that I didn’t tell her anything. Then I saw Mo Fei frown and say with a puzzled look on her face, “But something that Liusu and Officer Dong said was very different from what Xue Ziyuan said.

“Liusu and the others seem to think that you and Xue Ziyuan’s relationship was very simple, and you two were just ordinary childhood sweethearts, so it’s normal that she didn’t contact you after you separated. But I heard that Xue Ziyuan said vaguely that there seemed to be other reasons why she didn’t contact you. When I asked her what the reason was, her answer was vague. She said that she shouldn’t have given you such a heavy burden… What burden did she give you?”

I felt very complicated. Ziyuan didn’t tell Mo Fei what kind of burden it was. It meant that she really didn’t want to ruin the relationship between me and the three women. Of course, the relationship between me and Sister Tiger was absolutely innocent. It was just that Ziyuan didn’t believe it.

Ziyuan had grown up, and she no longer needed to rely on me to protect her. Instead, she was trying to protect me.

Seeing that I didn’t respond to her, Mo Fei urged, “Tell me, what burden did she give you?”

“I will tell you in the future… It is not the time yet,” I said lightly, “What about your uncle? What did he tell you?!”

“He didn’t tell me anything,” Mo Fei’s eyebrows were pressed even closer, “You also know that the board of directors has decided to give me the responsibility of contacting the Third Lady, right? But up to now, let alone meeting the Third Lady, I haven’t even got the cooperation plan, and I don’t even know which company we will cooperate with.

“He just told me that this cooperation plan is highly confidential. But even if it is highly confidential, he didn’t need to hide everything from me, right? Because of this, I’ve talked to my uncle many times already. But every time, he just laughed without answering. Yesterday I went to ask my uncle about Xue Ziyuan’s information, but he said that apart from signing the contract on behalf of the company, he would not deal with anything that is related to the cooperation project.

“I told him that you don’t know anything, but he said that it’s better that you don’t know anything. If you know, it will be very troublesome… That’s why I suspected that Xue Ziyuan was the Third Lady, but I don’t understand why she came to our company to work as an assistant for me. If she wanted to give you a surprise, she had already achieved that. There is no need for her to keep hiding her identity, right?”

Mo Yizhi, of course, would not tell her anything, because everything was planned by him, and this game was planned for one person from beginning to end. That person was Mo Fei!

I felt that the assumption in my heart was getting closer and closer to the truth.
