The love story of a wealthy brother and sister

Lin Yingci ran home quickly, but when she reached the door, her thoughts suddenly became confused.

Lin Jingran...is he at home?

If he were here, what would we say when we met?

She took a deep breath, lightly pressed her fingerprint and opened the door. She first glanced around the hall, and when she saw that there was no one there, she felt relieved to go in. The door closed automatically. Lin Yingci stared at the living room while walking quickly towards the stairs.

After walking only two steps, she heard a "cough cough" sound behind her. It was a sound that she was very familiar with. Lin Yingci's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, but when she thought that he hadn't contacted her for a few days and didn't tell her when he came back, she stood still for a while and continued to walk forward;

"Hey, didn't you see me?" Lin Jingran suddenly followed anxiously and blocked Lin Yingci's way.

She raised her head slightly and looked at him. His hair was cut short, and his bangs were much shorter. His childishness had faded, and his facial features were more distinct. He still had thick, slanted eyebrows, but his eyes were no longer gentle, but rather a bit fierce.

Suddenly, she felt an indescribable sense of strangeness, as if the person in front of her was not the brother Jing Ran in her memory;

Lin Yingci lowered her eyes, still without saying anything, and walked forward on her own.

Lin Jingran suddenly felt powerless, but he still followed and asked unwillingly:

"Did An Yishang send you back?"

Lin Yingci stood still and responded to his gaze, her tone without any emotion:

"none of your business?"

Lin Jingran frowned. He really didn't expect her to say that. The atmosphere froze for a few seconds, and he turned and left without saying a word.

Feeling like he was fleeing in panic, he pretended to be calm as he quickly went downstairs, closed the door and left.

Lin Yingci couldn't help but look back at him. At that moment, she felt a little regretful. She didn't know what was wrong with her. She obviously missed him very much, but when she opened her mouth, she said those words.

Late night

It was already past 12 o'clock, and Lin Yingci was still curled up on the sofa reading a book, not wanting to sleep at all;

Suddenly someone knocked on her door and said softly, "You're still reading so late." Lin Yingci turned around and saw Lin Yehao looking at her lovingly outside the door. "Don't study too hard. Go to bed early."

Lin Yingci smiled at him: "Got it, Dad."

"Watch your eyes, goodnight."

"Good night."

At this time, Lin Jingran and Jiang Kaicheng were still drinking in the bar.

"I think you might as well just tell her directly, otherwise both of you will be unhappy."

Jiang Kaicheng felt very depressed after listening to him.

"What do you mean?" Lin Jingran looked at him.

"If I were you, I would have told you long ago. Why are you hiding it?" Jiang Kaicheng frowned. "Guessing all the time is so tiring."

"No need to guess, she definitely knows what I'm thinking." Lin Jingran was still very sober, "It's me who doesn't quite understand her right now."

"Yes, the opponent is too strong." Jiang Kaicheng suddenly sighed.

"Not only that, they are very similar," Lin Jingran paused and looked at Jiang Kaicheng: "They both like reading, and the amount of books they read is surprisingly similar."

Jiang Kaicheng shook his head repeatedly: "That's it, it's hard to like reading these days, and it's almost the same to read a lot, isn't that too much of a tacit understanding?"

"Yeah," Lin Jingran said sullenly, "sometimes I think they are a good match."

"You know what, I also think they are a good match, a talented man and a beautiful woman—"

"Jiang Kaicheng," Lin Jingran suddenly interrupted him, his eyes deep and it was not difficult to see the disappointment.

The atmosphere froze for a few seconds, and Jiang Kaicheng quickly said: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, you and she are a perfect match."

Suddenly Lin Jingran's phone rang. It was Chen Ying. He didn't want to answer it and just threw the phone aside. Jiang Kaicheng quickly picked it up.

"Hey, auntie, yes, yes, yes, you are with me, don't worry...Are you still worried about being with me?..."

"I have to go find her," Lin Jingran suddenly seemed to have an idea, and turned to leave. Jiang Kaicheng hurriedly followed him: "Wait a minute, I'll ask someone to take us..."

It was almost 1 o'clock. Lin Yingci was very sleepy and didn't want to wait any longer. She was about to go back to her room to rest, but she saw a car driving in downstairs, and then Jiang Kaicheng helped Lin Jingran out. Jiang Kaicheng said something to her, and Lin Jingran nodded and walked into the gate alone.

Lin Yingci waited for a while, and wanted to go out to take a look out of concern. At the door, she ran into Lin Jingran, who was drunk.

"Have you been drinking?" She was worried. "Are you okay?" Lin Jingran shook his head and looked at Lin Yingci with a dazed look.

"I have something to tell you."

Lin Yingci nodded, went back to pour a glass of warm water and handed it to him: "Drink some water first." She felt a little distressed.

Lin Jingran sat down opposite her obediently, took a sip of water, looked at Lin Yingci, and blurted out: "An Yishang likes you."

Lin Yingci raised her eyebrows, but soon calmed down and asked softly, "And then?"

"Then," Lin Jingran paused, looked up at Lin Yingci, his eyes filled with mixed emotions, "You know, I went to England in middle school, alone, unfamiliar with the place, and it was he who took care of me all the time,"

Lin Yingci nodded: "He treats you very well."

"Yes, he takes good care of me," Lin Jingran continued, "Although he is only one year older than me, in my heart, I regard him as my brother."

"He is not only good to you," Lin Yingci looked at him, "he is also very good to me."

Lin Jingran raised his head and looked at her with a strange look.

"He came to pick me up in the heavy rain just after I returned to China," Lin Yingci said, "He came specially but said it was just on his way. He also gave me a custom watch. The back of the dial was engraved with the Chinese character for 'Liuli', which is my original name."

Lin Jingran nodded and said bitterly: "It is indeed very thoughtful."

"I'm going to sleep." Lin Yingci stood up while saying this. Lin Jingran quickly grabbed her hand.

"I haven't finished yet," he said anxiously, "Sit for a while."

Lin Yingci fiercely shook off his hand, and her emotions began to collapse: "You told me this because you want me to be with him?" She asked in a low voice, "You don't have to tell me, I can feel it, you tell me what it means?"

Lin Jingran was shocked and quickly explained: "No, of course not."

He stood up and looked at Lin Yingci's eyes which were getting redder and redder. He began to feel at a loss.

"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant,"

"I don't want to hear it,"

Lin Yingci ignored him, wiped her tears, ran back to her room and closed the door.

Lin Jingran began to regret that he had talked for so long but still could not make sense. He did not dare to knock at her door, so he could only take out his phone to edit the message, deleting and rewriting, and finally leaving only this sentence:

I never want you to be with someone else. My thoughts are not very clear right now. Can we talk about it tomorrow?

Lin Yingci cried for a long time, then picked up her phone and saw the message and couldn't help laughing. She replied:

"Next time, don't talk to me after drinking."

Lin Jingran felt inexplicably relaxed after seeing the message and quickly replied:

Sorry, I won’t drink so much next time.

After thinking for a while, he added:

Stop crying and go to bed early.

Lin Yingci didn't reply, but she knew she could have a good sleep.
