I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives

The New Year is approaching, and the streets are filled with a festive atmosphere. Chen Jia went out alone, wearing a light and elegant dress, with a graceful figure, like a blooming green lotus. The purpose of her trip was to customize New Year clothes, hoping to have a brand new look in the new year.

As she passed by a busy street, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

It was Wei Lang. He was wearing a dark blue robe and a jade crown today. He was still handsome and elegant, but his eyes no longer had the jealousy and anger he had in the noodle shop last time. Instead, there was a deep worry in his eyes.

"Chen Jia." Wei Lang called softly, with a hint of helplessness in his voice. His eyes revealed a hint of hesitation, as if he was weighing his words. After all, he knew that Chen Jia had a stubborn personality, and too strong persuasion might backfire.

Chen Jia frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy, but still responded politely: "Master Wei, what a coincidence."

Her tone was flat and her eyes were a little distant. It was obvious that she didn't want to get too entangled with Wei Lang.

Wei Lang seemed not to notice Chen Jia's coldness. He took a step forward, approaching Chen Jia, his eyes revealing concern.

"Yiyi, I know you have a close relationship with Chen Jue, but have you ever thought that he is now the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple and has confiscated the residences of so many officials, and he has accumulated a lot of resentment. If you get too close to him, you might get involved in some unnecessary troubles."

"Master Wei, thank you for your concern. But I have already saved Jue, which has already made my feelings known to everyone. Since I have chosen to stand by him, I will not withdraw easily."

Wei Lang looked at Chen Jia's determined eyes, sighed secretly in his heart, and continued to persuade: "Chen Jia, I understand your intention. But you have to know that officialdom is complicated, and there are various forces behind those officials who have been confiscated. Although Chen Jue is now in a high position, he has also made many enemies. You may face danger at any time when you are with him. Can't you think about your future?"

"Master Wei, I know you are doing this for my own good. But the relationship between Ajue and I is beyond your comprehension. I believe he is capable of handling everything, and I will always support him. Besides, I cannot leave him when he needs me the most."

"Yiyi, I really don't want to see you get hurt. If you need any help, you can always come to me. I will always be by your side."

"Thank you, Master Wei. But I believe that Jue and I can overcome all the difficulties."

Wei Lang watched Chen Jia's determined back gradually go away, his heart filled with helplessness and worry. He knew that he could not change Chen Jia's decision, so he could only watch her silently in the dark, hoping that she would be safe.

He stood there for a long time without leaving, his eyes revealing a complex emotion of helplessness, worry, and a hint of blessing.

Chen Jia continued to walk towards the tailor shop. When she arrived at the tailor shop, the clerk in the shop greeted her warmly.

"Miss, are you here to customize New Year's clothes? Please come in." The waiter said with a smile.

Chen Jia nodded and followed the clerk into the store. The store was filled with various styles of fabrics and ready-made clothes, colorful and dazzling. Chen Jia carefully selected the fabrics, thinking about customizing a piece of clothing for Chen Jue as a New Year's gift.

"Girl, what do you think of this piece of red silk? This is a new material that arrived this year. It has bright colors and a soft texture. It is very suitable for making New Year clothes."

The waiter held a piece of red silk and recommended it to Chen Jia.

Chen Jia took the silk and stroked it gently. It felt really good. But she shook her head when she thought of Chen Jue's preference for plain and elegant colors.

"Is there any material with a lighter color?"

She is a careful person. She knows Chen Jue's preferences very well and will consider Chen Jue's feelings when doing anything.

The guy thought about it and took out a piece of light blue silk.

"Girl, what do you think of this one? It's a very elegant blue with some dark patterns on it. It looks very delicate."

Chen Jia looked at the light blue silk and liked it very much. She imagined how handsome Chen Jue would look in it.

"Let's take this one." Chen Jia decided.

"Okay, girl. What do you want in terms of the style of the clothes?"

"I want a robe, simple and elegant. The neckline and cuffs can be embroidered with some patterns to add a festive atmosphere."

"Okay, girl. We will definitely make you a beautiful dress according to your requirements."

Chen Jia paid the deposit and walked out of the tailor shop, still holding the sample of light blue satin in her hand. In her mind, she was already picturing how Chen Jue would look in the new clothes. The corners of her mouth unconsciously rose with a hint of sweet anticipation.

As soon as she turned around, she suddenly saw Yang Xiu staggering towards her. Yang Xiu's eyes were red and blurry, and he smelled strongly of alcohol, like a drunkard lost in the street.

His steps were unsteady and he seemed to fall with every step, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Jia with a complex emotion.

Yang Xiu staggered to Chen Jia and blocked her way.

He raised his head and looked at Chen Jia, his lips trembling slightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Chen Jia, I...I really regret it. I shouldn't have treated you like that. I know I was wrong. Can you give me another chance?"

"Yang Xiu, please stop talking. There is no possibility between us. You should have understood long ago that the past is the past. I will not look back."

"Chen Jia, I just realized that I have always had you in my heart. I was really obsessed during those days. I was blinded by power and desire. I... I hurt you. I really regret it."

As he spoke, tears actually flowed from his red eyes and ran down his haggard cheeks.

Chen Jia took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm. "Yang Xiu, what's the point of saying this now? Your choice at the beginning has already determined our ending. I already have my own life, and I hope you can live your life well and stop bothering me."

Yang Xiu refused to give up. He reached out to grab Chen Jia's arm and said, "Chen Jia, can't you forgive me one more time? I will change and I will definitely treat you well."

Chen Jia quickly dodged his hand, her eyes revealing anger, "Yang Xiu, wake up! Look at the way you are now, what are you talking about? I have made it very clear that it is impossible for us. If you keep pestering me like this, it will only make me hate you even more."

Yang Xiu's hand stopped in mid-air. He looked at Chen Jia's angry eyes and felt a sharp pain in his heart. He knew that he had completely lost Chen Jia, but he was still unwilling to accept this reality.

"Chen Jia, I...I really can't live without you."

"Yang Xiu, don't disturb each other. This is the best outcome."

After Chen Jia finished speaking, she walked around Yang Xiu and walked quickly forward. She didn't want to have any more entanglement with Yang Xiu and just wanted to leave this scene that made her feel bored as soon as possible.

Yang Xiu stood there blankly, watching Chen Jia's back as she left, his body trembling slightly. He knew that he could no longer win back Chen Jia's heart, and his heart was filled with regret and pain. His eyes became empty, as if he had lost his soul. He slowly squatted down, holding his head with both hands, and groaned in pain.

On this bustling street, he seemed so lonely and helpless, while Chen Jia's figure was getting farther and farther away, and his world seemed to have fallen into darkness. But life had to go on, and he had to face the mistakes he had made and the cruel reality of losing Chen Jia, and find the strength to stand up again in the pain.
