Fang Zheng could no longer make up any story. He mechanically repeated the lie he had told yesterday to his aunt. He didn't know if there were any flaws in his story, and he was not sure if his aunt would be as excited as Bo Tong.

"How could this happen?" Yang Hua walked around the living room anxiously. "So, did Ruan Xiaojing ask you to take responsibility?"

Fang Zheng said in a low voice: "She didn't, I have to take responsibility for it myself."

"Your leader, is she single? How old is she?" Yang Hua recalled in his mind. He had never heard of this name, and had never paid attention to the relationship between Fang Zheng and his leader. "How can a superior and a subordinate develop feelings for each other?"

"She is one year younger than me and unmarried. We spent every day together and fell in love with each other over time." Fang Zheng lowered his head and said, but every word he spoke seemed to torture his conscience.

Yang Hua just shook his head after hearing this, "Does she really like you? Have you figured it out? Is she just attracted to you?"

"Of course I really like you, otherwise, why would you be with me in Qingjiang?"

"Fang Zheng, tell your aunt the truth, do you think she is better than Du Qingqing, so you deliberately get close to her -"

Fang Zheng remained silent.

Yang Hua held Fang Zheng's hand and said, "Fang Zheng, you should start and end well. You can't be so fickle and fall in love with every girl you meet. Do you think it's fair for you to treat Du Qingqing like this all of a sudden?"

Fang Zheng looked up at Yang Hua, "Aunt, I know I'm wrong, but it's already happened, and I can't just abandon Ruan Xiaojing like this. If I do that, wouldn't I be irresponsible? After all, Qingqing and I are still very innocent..."

"Then what are you going to do now?"

"I—" Fang Zheng said with difficulty, "I want to marry Ruan Xiaojing."

Yang Hua sighed, "Fang Zheng, you are our child, I can't tell you whether you are right or wrong. It's just that Qingqing is so pitiful. We watched her grow up. Although she doesn't have a father, she is well-behaved, independent, and hardworking. I can see that she likes you very much. You are hurting her too much by treating her like this."

"I know." Fang Zheng said. How could he not know how Du Qingqing felt? "But, I can't do anything."

Yang Hua shook his head in disappointment. Bo Tong happened to walk to the door of his house and heard Fang Zheng's last words. Bo Tong said coldly: "Don't see Du Qingqing again. She is almost tortured to death by you."

After saying that, Botong walked into his room and slammed the door shut.

The next day, Fang Zheng also went out early. The atmosphere at home suffocated him for the whole day.

Although Yang Hua said nothing more, he kept sighing. Seeing his aunt constantly going next door to visit Du Qingqing, Fang Zheng's heart tightened.

He especially didn't dare to see Botong's disappointed look. He and Botong had been good brothers since childhood and they never quarreled or fought. Although Botong was a few months older than him, he took care of him like an older brother.

Fang Zheng has always admired Bo Tong, not only because of his hard work, but also because of his integrity, broad-mindedness and kindness. He hurt Du Qingqing, whom Bo Tong loved deeply, and because he was his younger brother who grew up together, Bo Tong tried his best to restrain his anger and resentment towards him.

This will be a situation that will be difficult to reverse in a short period of time. His family will find it difficult to understand his change, and Du Qingqing and her mother will find it difficult to accept his betrayal.

But no matter what, he finally took this step, and he could only continue.
