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

The night was as thick as ink, covering this quiet world. Chen Jue and Chen Jia sat opposite each other, the candlelight in the room flickering, reflecting their slightly solemn faces.

Chen Jia lowered her eyes and twisted her hands nervously. Silence was like an invisible barrier, standing between the two of them.

Chen Jue was the first to break the suffocating silence. His eyes fell on Chen Jia gently and firmly, and he said softly: "Sister, do you know? I really can't say exactly when I fell in love with you. Maybe it was at that inadvertent moment that you quietly walked into my heart. Later, every little bit we experienced together was like a drizzle, slowly soaking my heart."

He paused slightly, and the past scenes emerged in his mind. The corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, with a bit of warmth of memories. He subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to hold Chen Jia's hand, but was afraid of being too abrupt, so his hand paused slightly in the air, and then gently placed on Chen Jia's hand.

Chen Jia's hand trembled slightly, she raised her head and looked at Chen Jue.

"I was really touched when you asked for a doctor for me. At that time, I saw you running around for me, regardless of difficulties and obstacles, and I knew that you are someone worth cherishing for my whole life."

There was a deep affection in Chen Jue's eyes. He exerted a little force and held Chen Jia's hand, as if he wanted to convey his inner determination to her through this action.

His eyes stayed on Chen Jia's face, observing every subtle change in her expression, hoping to see a response to his feelings in her eyes.

When talking about Wei Lang, Chen Jue frowned slightly and said with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone: "Sister, Wei Lang is not suitable for you at all. During the time you were together, how many times did he really care about your inner thoughts? When facing difficulties and pressure, he did not choose to face it with you, but gave up on you easily. Sister, you deserve someone who truly understands you, loves you, and is willing to give everything for you."

Chen Jue held Chen Jia's hand tightly, giving her strength and comfort.

"And Yang Xiu, he is blind and can't see your value. That's his problem, not your fault. Don't doubt yourself because of them. You are unique. I see all your goodness and remember it in my heart."

As Chen Jue spoke, he gently brushed away a strand of hair from Chen Jia's forehead with his other hand. His movements were gentle and natural, as if this was an intimate act he was accustomed to.

Chen Jia blushed slightly and listened quietly, with ripples in her heart, but she remained silent and the hesitation in her eyes had not completely disappeared.

Chen Jue looked at Chen Jia, feeling distressed. He continued, "Sister, I know everything about you. Why should we care about the gossips from the outside world? They don't understand the relationship between us at all, and they are not qualified to judge us."

Chen Jue leaned forward slightly, approaching Chen Jia, his eyes full of desire and expectation, hoping to get closer to her and let her feel his sincerity.

Chen Jia bit her lip lightly, raised her head, and looked into Chen Jue's eyes, with a trace of guilt and worry in her eyes: "Jue, I know you are good to me, but I am still afraid that I will tarnish your future. You have a bright future, you are the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and your future is full of infinite possibilities. And I... I am just a person with a past, I am afraid that my existence will become a burden to you and affect your career."

Chen Jia's voice trembled slightly, and her heart was full of contradictions and struggles.

She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, as if this would reduce her "influence" on Chen Jue.

Chen Jue smiled slightly, without any hesitation or retreat in his eyes. He held Chen Jia's hand tightly, not allowing her to pull it back.

"Sister, do you know? When I was investigating those corrupt officials who borrowed money from the national treasury, I had already offended countless families. For the sake of justice and the interests of the country, I have never backed down. I have offended everyone I should have offended, so why should I care about those external factors now? What I am most worried about is that you will not want to be with me because you are afraid that I will offend too many people. Everything I do is for the belief in my heart, and you are my spiritual support on this difficult road. With you by my side, I feel that I have the motivation to move forward. Your existence will only make my life more complete and more meaningful. How can it be a smear?"

Chen Jue's words were powerful, and his eyes revealed a fearless courage and a deep attachment to Chen Jia.

As Chen Jia listened to Chen Jue's words, she was overwhelmed with emotion.

Chen Jue seemed to see what Chen Jia was thinking. He did not rush for success, but said more patiently: "Sister, you have given me countless support and encouragement during the days we have been together. Whenever I encounter difficulties and setbacks, as long as I see you, I feel that I have strength again. Our feelings are gradually deepening in mutual support. This feeling is real and precious. Don't give up our relationship because of the opinions of those insignificant people, okay?"

Chen Jue's voice was gentle and persuasive. He gently stroked Chen Jia's hair, his movements full of love.

His fingers gently ran through Chen Jia's hair, as if he was stroking a precious treasure, and every movement was filled with pity and love.

Tears gradually welled up in Chen Jia's eyes. She knew that Chen Jue truly loved her, and she also knew that her feelings for Chen Jue were equally deep. However, she was still afraid that she would become a burden to Chen Jue, and that their feelings would become vulnerable under the pressure of reality.

She was trembling slightly, tears welling up in her eyes. She tried hard to hold back the tears. She didn't want Chen Jue to see her fragility and helplessness.

Chen Jue hugged Chen Jia tightly, held her in his arms, patted her back gently, and whispered in her ear: "Sister, believe me, we can face everything in the future together. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will go through it together hand in hand. I will use all my strength to protect you and make you happy. Don't be afraid, as long as I am here, everything will be fine."

His words were like a warm spring breeze, blowing on Chen Jia's uneasy heart. He hugged Chen Jia tightly, as if he wanted to use his arms to build a solid defense line for her to resist all the wind and rain from the outside world.

Chen Jia leaned in Chen Jue's arms, feeling his warmth and strength, and the hesitation in her heart began to slowly waver.

She thought of the good times she had spent with Chen Jue and the times when they had supported each other in difficult times. She raised her hands and gently hugged Chen Jue back. Although the action was slight, it was full of her trust and reliance on Chen Jue.

"Ajue, I...can I really do this?"

Chen Jia raised her head with a hint of expectation and uncertainty in her eyes.

Chen Jue looked at Chen Jia, his eyes full of encouragement and love. He gently lifted Chen Jia's chin with his fingers, asked her to look into his eyes, and said: "Sister, don't care about other people's eyes. As long as we love each other and trust each other, nothing can stop us."

"Okay, Jue, I am willing to face everything in the future with you."

When Chen Jue heard Chen Jia's answer, a relieved smile appeared on his face. He hugged Chen Jia tightly again, as if he owned the whole world.
