Chapter 201: 201: The Unveiled Scar

“You don’t like constraints, so he lets you do whatever you want, but secretly goes to great lengths to protect you. If you’re out late, he always follows you, hiding in corners you can’t see, until you safely return home. But he never lets you know.”

Meng Ziqi’s eyes were red, her voice trembling, “You just assume that him always being there in times of danger is just good luck, but have you ever thought about how much effort he puts into making that ‘luck’ happen?”

“I still remember when he found out that you were his sister who insisted on returning to China, he stood alone in the rainy night for a whole night. The utter desolation on his face, as if he had lost the whole world… I’ll never forget it in my life.”

Qin Youxuan stiffened, looking at Meng Ziqi in astonishment, “How do you know about all this?”

Many things, she thought, had faded with time.

But she hadn’t expected anyone to uncover them again, forcing her to confront these issues head-on.

“I don’t know how I came to know either. He’s the silliest person I’ve ever met, doing everything without letting you know. And I, unknowingly, have always been quietly standing behind him, watching him give his all for you, yet you take him for granted.” Meng Ziqi smiled bitterly, her eyes filled with resentment and jealousy.

Her background, education, and looks were no less than Qin Youxuan’s, it was just that she had met Jin Chenye later, and he had never had her in his eyes.

At first, she thought it was because she appeared later, and Jin Chenye already had Qin Youxuan in his heart.

If they were impossible, then he would surely notice her.

So when she unexpectedly found out that Jin Chenye’s biological mother was named Jin Lan, she secretly investigated Jin Chenye’s background. When she found out they were siblings, she felt it was a godsend opportunity.

She had lingered in America, waiting for this opportunity.

However, what she waited for was their passionate love affair.

Impatient, and seeing that Qin Youxuan would go to Jin Chenye for meals every night, she feared something might happen between these two.

Eventually, she mailed all the information she had found to Jin Chenye.

What disappointed her was that Jin Chenye, knowing they were siblings, remained indifferent.

He even had no intention of telling Qin Youxuan, and continued to pamper her as always.

Meng Ziqi panicked.

She could not miss this opportunity. So, when Jin Chenye failed to act, she had the same information sent to Qin Youxuan.

Finally, she received the news of their breakup…

“What’s the point of you telling me all this now, do you think we can still be friends without any grudges?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Able to covet her good friend’s boyfriend, she felt that it tarnished the very name of friendship.

“Do you know he’s still in love with you?” Meng Ziqi’s voice sank, “Xuan, you two are now acknowledged siblings by everyone. If you are together again, you will ruin him!”

“So, this is what you want to tell me, afraid that our old feelings will reignite?”

Qin Youxuan let go of her hand, the towel fell to the floor. She walked to the door, opened it, “Get out, before I can still speak to you calmly.”

“He was already born out of wedlock. If he is now associated with a scandal of being infatuated with his own sister, he will never be able to stand up again in his life. Xuan, consider it a plea from me, let him go, let me love him for you, I promise…”

“Get out!” Qin Youxuan roared, grabbed Meng Ziqi’s arm, pushed her out, and closed the door firmly.
