Chapter 693 Turning into a Sister-Protecting Enthusiast

Su Jian’an held her cheek and thought for a moment, then said, “Why do I feel that Yuechuan has the tendency to turn into a sister-protecting enthusiast?”

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows. “He already is.”

“Pff...” Su Jian’an couldn’t help laughing and suddenly thought of something. “By the way, when will Yuechuan find a girlfriend? He has been single... for a long time.”

“He has a girlfriend,” Lu Boyan added, “and it has been some time.”

“Huh?” Su Jian’an was surprised, and her reaction was the same as Daisy’s. She asked, “When do you think they will break up?”

“...” Lu Boyan was silent for a moment and said, “This time, Yuechuan is serious.”

“...” Su Jian’an blinked. “What do you mean?”

“He told me today that he wants to find a chance to introduce his girlfriend to us.”

Su Jian’an was in a daze. “Ah,” she said, “he’s really serious...”

In the past few years, Shen Yuechuan had been treating life as merely a game to be played. His speed of changing girlfriends was as fast as changing clothes according to the season. But he rarely mentioned his female companions in front of them, let alone introduced one to them.

What kind of girl was she? Not only did she make this playboy single-minded, but she also made him unable to wait to introduce her to his family and friends.

“In fact, it’s not bad.” Su Jian’an thought for a moment and said, “Yunyun is being taken care of by Qin Han, and Yuechuan has a new girlfriend. All of us have found our happiness, right?”

“Well, for them, I’m not sure.” Lu Boyan held Su Jian’an’s chin and kissed her on the lips quickly. “We have.”

Su Jian’an pursed her lips and smiled. She took the phone and said, “I’ll call Yunyun over for dinner!”

Xiao Yunyun had just gotten off work. Upon receiving Jian’an’s call, she agreed without hesitation. It didn’t take long for her to arrive.

Some time ago, she was in a bad state. Xiao Yunyun was afraid that she would expose herself in front of Su Jian’an, so she didn’t dare to come over.

Now, she had made the changes and was full of vitality again. As soon as she arrived, she rushed into the kitchen and asked the chef to make soup dumplings for her.

Seeing her like this, Su Jian’an felt that she could rest assured.

During the meal, Lu Boyan said to Xiao Yunyun, “Maybe I should arrange a driver for you to pick you up from work.”

“...You don’t have to be so serious.” Xiao Yunyun said with a look of resistance, “I’m just an intern. If you arrange a full-time driver to pick me up from work... my colleagues will think that I’m a rich man’s mistress!”

“Yunyun, it’s not the time to joke,” Su Jian’an said. “To be safe, it would be better if the driver takes you back and forth from work in the future. What if something like yesterday happens again?”

“There’s really no need.” Xiao Yunyun gloomily poked the soup dumplings in the steamer. “I just refused Shen Yuechuan’s girlfriend yesterday.”

Su Jian’an was stunned. “Do you know Yuechuan’s girlfriend?”

“Yeah. Shen Yuechuan is going to hurt another super-beautiful woman!” Xiao Yunyun picked up a soup dumpling and put it into her mouth. She said while eating, “That girl is my colleague, but she works in the medical department.”

It seemed that Xiao Yunyun could easily accept the fact that Shen Yuechuan had a new girlfriend.

Su Jian’an could not help but feel a little surprised.

Xiao Yunyun continued to say as if she was indifferent to it, “That girl is one or two years older than me. She’s very nice. She’s not the kind of girl that Shen Yuechuan used to date. She’s very gentle. I think that many people will envy Shen Yuechuan in the future!”

Su Jian’an’s words hit the nail on the head. “Yunyun, can you accept Yuechuan’s new girlfriend as your sister-in-law?”

Xiao Yunyun felt a sharp pain in her heart. She was stunned for a while before she could speak. “Yeah... I can... Anyway, she’s the one Shen Yuechuan likes. My disapproval is useless. What’s more, she’s really nice...”

“She should be nice.” Su Jian’an nodded. “Yuechuan said that he intends to introduce her to us.”

“That will happen sooner or later.” Xiao Yunyun forced a smile. “You’ll love her!”

Su Jian’an took a sip of the soup and said without principles, “As long as Xiaoxi says she likes her, I will like her!”

“Cousin,” Xiao Yunyun looked at Su Jian’an in confusion, “why will you listen to cousin-in-law?”

“I’m too lazy to think about it.” Su Jian’an confessed her laziness. “Your cousin-in-law can tell a person’s nature at a glance. So, it must not be wrong for me to listen to her!”

“... Okay.”

After dinner, Xiao Yunyun didn’t stay long. She said that she had to go back to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination and left early.

In fact, her mind was not on the examination at all.

She knew that Shen Yuechuan was serious about Lin Zhixia. But was he really going to introduce Lin Zhixia to his family and friends so soon?

Could he be so sure that Lin Zhixia was qualified to be his wife without spending more time to get to know her better?

Xiao Yunyun understood that she should accept the fact calmly, but things had progressed much faster than she had imagined.

However, what could she do if she couldn’t accept it? She couldn’t stop it from happening.

Uncle Qian saw that Xiao Yunyun had been absent-minded, so he informed her when they were about to arrive, “Miss, we’re almost there.”

Xiao Yunyun came to her senses and looked out of the window. All she saw was the familiar street view.

She thought for a moment, then asked Uncle Qian to stop the car and said, “I’m going to buy something in the nearby store. I can walk back myself later.”

“But, Mrs. Lu specially told me to send you to the apartment building.” Uncle Qian looked worried. “Where are you going shopping? I’ll send you there first. After you buy what you need, I’ll send you home.”

Xiao Yunyun burst into laughter. “Uncle Qian, I’m close to home. I’m so familiar with the surrounding area. Besides, it’s the downtown area, where there won’t be any danger. Don’t worry about me like my cousin does!”

Uncle Qian still did not dare to agree. “But...”

“Don’t say ‘but’.” Xiao Yunyun smiled openly and said, “When I get home, I’ll tell my cousin! Don’t worry!”

Uncle Qian stopped the car, but he didn’t return. Instead, he followed Xiao Yunyun from a distance.

Xiao Yunyun took out her headphones from the bag, put them on, and went straight to a convenience store.

In fact, she didn’t have anything to buy. She just wanted to walk around.

In the end, she picked some snacks. She might not necessarily eat them, but keeping them at home could enhance her happiness!

After paying the bill, Xiao Yunyun returned to her apartment.

Xiao Yunyun tapped her card and entered the apartment building. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she turned around and waved in the direction of Uncle Qian.

She knew that Uncle Qian had been following her, probably because Su Jian’an was worried about her.

In that case, it would be best for her to do it openly, at least to let Su Jian’an be rest assured.

The next day, Xiao Yunyun arrived at the hospital early. When she followed Dr. Liang and finished checking the room, it was already noon.

When she was considering where to eat, she received a message from Lin Zhixia on her mobile phone.

“Yunyun, I’m tired of the food in the canteen. Let’s go out and eat together. I know a great restaurant nearby.”

Well, how could she say no?

Before Xiao Yunyun could come up with an excuse, she heard Lin Zhixia’s voice. “Yunyun!”

Xiao Yunyun shivered all over and looked in the direction of the voice. Sure enough, it was Lin Zhixia. She only felt dizzy for a while.

“Why is this girl... always haunting me?”

“What a coincidence to meet you here!” Lin Zhixia took Xiao Yunyun’s hand intimately and said, “Let’s go!”

It was just time for lunch, and the restaurant was crowded. Lin Zhixia said, “We may have to wait a little longer for the dishes to be served.”

“...”

Xiao Yunyun’s heart crumbled.

Could she not eat with Lin Zhixia? Could she leave right away?

“It doesn’t matter. We can talk a little longer.” Lin Zhixia’s enthusiasm was just right. “By the way, have you heard about the news of Zhong Enterprises?”

“I’m not clear about it.” Xiao Yunyun said, “However, no matter if Zhong Lue is involved in human trafficking or not, it’s true that he bribed those human traffickers to kidnap me. It’s better to arrest him, so that he won’t do anything crazy in the future.”

Lin Zhixia smiled and said, “Yuechuan is really nice to you. He made such a piece of big news and didn’t hesitate to offend Zhong Enterprises in order to avenge you.”

“He promised my mom to take care of me. Someone bullied me, and he was certainly angry.” Xiao Yunyun forced a bright smile. “He really cares about you. That day when I went shopping with him, he was always thinking about you! Well, he also bought you a super-cute dress!”

Lin Zhixia pursed her lips, but she couldn’t hide the smile. “I received it.”

Xiao Yunyun saw sweetness in Lin Zhixia’s smile.

Well, she didn’t envy Lin Zhixia at all. Why should she be jealous?

“Well, you told me that day there was something special between you and your brother. What is it?” Lin Zhixia said, “He didn’t seem to be very willing to mention it, so I didn’t dare to ask him in detail.”

In fact, it was because she had no right to ask Shen Yuechuan, but she was eager to know the truth.

Lin Zhixia hid her feelings very well. She looked like a generous and sensible girlfriend. Xiao Yunyun didn’t have any doubts.

“Ah, this is my fault.” Xiao Yunyun held her chin, thought for a moment, and then said, “Shen Yuechuan should not be willing to mention it. I’ll tell you, in case you accidentally talk about his sad things in the future.”

“What’s going on?” Lin Zhixia only wore a look of curiosity.

“Shen Yuechuan... actually grew up in an orphanage.” Xiao Yunyun said, “Not long after he was born, his biological father died accidentally. My mother couldn’t bear the blow and was unable to raise him... In short, he was sent to an orphanage. Later, my mother married my father and gave birth to me. My mother had been looking for him for a long time. It was not until she returned to China that she accidentally found him and recognized him as her son.”

“So, didn’t you grow up together?” Lin Zhixia suddenly had a bad feeling.

“We didn’t grow up together, and we found out we were related by blood after we’d known each other for a long time.” Xiao Yunyun smiled in disbelief. “If my mother hadn’t told me his family background, I wouldn’t have guessed that he was my brother...”

“...”

In an instant, the bad feeling in Lin Zhixia’s heart grew even stronger.

Many things were connected together. It was more than a coincidence.

But if the truth was as she had expected, then the fact that she was eager to know... was so ironic.
