Su Yinger was lying absent-minded on the floor; tears seed to drip down occasionally, and her haggard face, along with her wrinkled dress, implied how desperate she felt.
In this dire situation, she wondered who could help her.
Slowly by slowly, various mories about her little brother Su Chen started replaying in her head.
Su Chen: Sister, don't worry. I will always help you. I will always stand behind you.
Su Chen: Mother, it's okay! You can leave the Su Group to Yinger without any worries; when I grow up, I will naturally take control of everything.
Su Chen: Sister, do you need tea?
Su Chen: Sister, do you need this candy?
Su Chen: Sister, today, too, we would play till sunset, right?
Su Chen: Sister, I asked Mother to love you equally; never feel bad or say you are an orphan! You are my sister; that's the only truth.
Su Chen: Sister, after saving my pocket money, I bought this beautiful dress for you! This dress is designed by that world-famous designer that you have always liked.
Su Chen: Hey, don't stare at like this! You deserve this luxurious car inlaid with gold interiors. After all, you are mine, Su Chen's sister!
Su Chen: Sister, we will always stay together, and in the future, when we grow up, you will be my secretary, always next to , okay? Yay! It's a promise between us!
mories of her ti together with her now estranged brother kept flashing in her head, from childhood to adulthood, from adulthood to childhood, how he was always there for her and supported her unconditionally.
How he fought with his mother so that she could be treated like a real sister instead of an adopted one.
She clearly rembered that before he chased i Qing, they would always spend most of their ti together, going shopping, sightseeing, or on a thrilling adventure in the countryside.
Most of the ti, she fantasised that she would definitely beco his future wife and they would live happily together. A difference of 3-4 years in age doesn't matter much anyway.
But when did it all change?
When did a wall grow between them?
Was it because she overstepped her boundaries and tried to take what originally belonged to Su Chen?
Did her vanity and ambition cause her brain to think impulsively and side with his life-death enemy, Chu Fang?
The best ti to realise one's mistakes is when one is at their lowest and has lost everything.
Su Yinger was no different.
The introspection in this short period started bringing a series of regrets she never accepted before.
Su Chen tore her vanity and ambition, forcing her to see these regrets and past feelings, which she had always tried to dodge.
Her heart instantaneously beca heavy.
It was like a pair of hands quietly squeezing her insides with every passing second, and it wasn't easy to breathe.
"Su Chen, you are still so cruel, sending to jail for a lifeti?"
"Are…..you not ... willing to give a chance...to your.....sister?"
With a sobbing tone, her parched lips mumbled.
At this ti, she heard so approaching footsteps, and there was a hopeful whisper in her head. Perhaps the person who ca to save her was her brother, Su Chen. In surprise and full of joy, she hurriedly looked back.
"i Qing?"
The unexpected woman made Su Yinger's eyes widen.
Today, i Qing was dressed rather gracefully, her face full of broad smiles.
As the number one beauty in the original storyline, the charm on her face after being nourished by Su Chen the night before brought unrivalled pressure upon Su Yinger, leaving her dazzled altogether.
'What a domineering aura! Is she i Qing? The change in her temperant is too phenonal.'
Just as Su Yinger was recollecting her thoughts, she heard i Qing's sarcasm.
"Surprise, surprise...…Surprise!"
With long strides, i Qing instantly narrowed the distance between the two.
"Looking at your defeated face full of tears and misery, I can already guess what you are thinking….."
"...You must be rembering the ti when you had Su Chen's backing, when your brother always stood beside you and gave you the freedom to control the entire Su Group, right?"
"The ti when you grew up with Su Chen, when he did his best to make an adopted kid like you feel at ho, right?"
"Your heart must be full of aggrievedness and unjustness, right?"
i Qing chuckled lightly.
"Not to forget, the feeling that now there is an invisible wall between you and Su Chen, and he doesn't listen or care for your ambitious desires...….sighs!"
"To be precise, right now, you should be feeling as if a pair of invisible hands are squeezing your intestines, and even simple breathing is difficult."
Su Yinger stared deeply at i Qing.
i Qing's words perfectly described her situation.
Now giving her a chance to speak, i Qing continued,
"Do you know why I can guess everything so accurately?"
Under Su Yinger's disbelieving eyes, i Qing slowly spoke,
"Because….I, too, was once in a similar situation."
"The day when I was lying absent-minded in my abandoned i Family office, when Su Chen fiercely retaliated against us, I, too, was desperate and listless like you!"
"At that ti, my heart was also filled with regrets, and I realised the importance of Su Chen in my life."
"It was he who made a princess, and it was he who made you a famous business witch. Without his backing, both of us would be no different than any ordinary person."
"And when for the first ti I heard Su Chen's heartfelt voice when you almost slept with him in the beginning, I felt I lost sothing, and when on the night of bankruptcy I heard Su Chen confessing to Chu Chenxi, I knew it...…"
"All this money, all these business deals, all these profits and positions...…doesn't co even a fraction close to those true feelings."
"Sotis, if you lose soone, you lose them forever. At that ti, similar to you, after suffering bankruptcy, I realised...all these materialistic, ambitious things are nothing compared to the love and affection Su Chen had for us."
"And unlike , on whom Su Chen spent only three years chasing, on you, the ti spent as siblings should be much greater than mine!"
"Perhaps ten years, twelve years, who knows?"
"Therefore, you should also be feeling the sa or even greater amount of regret and loss after being defeated ruthlessly by Su Chen, right?"
"How ironic!"
i Qing's words were crisp and cruel, sharp enough to cut through her vulnerable self.
