I was at my wit's end.
I went home to complain to my elder brother.
I said, "Brother, you've really landed your sister in deep trouble this time!"
My elder brother said, "To be honest, I don't really care whether you're in trouble or not. I just feel so bad for our God Yu. I've really let him down!"
Me: "..."
-
My elder brother insisted on going to apologize to Yu in person. He called him himself. Maybe he was afraid of airing our family's dirty laundry in public, so he chose my home as the negotiation venue.
This was the second time Cheng Yu had come to my home.
He looked lonely and listless, which formed a sharp contrast with his radiant and imposing appearance the last time.
My elder brother sensed that Yu was heart - broken by love and almost burst into tears on the spot. "God Yu, I'm so sorry!"
"You're overstating it, Brother Bo." Cheng Yu held my elder brother's hand and comforted his fan kindly. "It's just a misunderstanding. No one intended it."
Me: Must the tone be so serious...
I feel like I'm being set up...
-
The three of us took our seats.
I sat timidly beside my elder brother.
My elder brother asked Cheng Yu, "I heard from my sister that you were really hit hard after learning the truth, and you haven't contacted her for a long time recently?"
Cheng Yu answered my elder brother with a proper attitude, "Sorry, I just couldn't adjust my mindset for a while. I didn't know how to face my relationship with your sister."
My elder brother: "No, God Yu, I don't mean to blame you!"
Cheng Yu looked straight at my elder brother. His eyes never once landed on me. "Blame me for being too infatuated. These days, whenever I think about how Yin and I watched movies together, had meals together, walked the dog together, and even slept in the same bed... We were so intimate, but she told me that we were just friends during that time. Just thinking about these things makes my heart ache and I feel so ashamed."
Me: !!!
Zhou Wubo couldn't see, but he still accurately slapped me on the back. It was like hitting a drum from afar, making my chest buzz. "Zhou Yinyin, did you do this on purpose? You knew he was God Yu early on, right?"
I almost spat out blood when I opened my mouth, "What do you mean on purpose? I really regarded him as a best friend! If I had the ability to seduce men, would I have been single for so many years?"
Zhou Wubo pointed at me angrily, "Sleeping in the same bed and being so intimate... The reactions of straight men and gays are definitely different! Can't you tell?"
Me: "Feeling? I just felt... he was really angry..."
Zhou Wubo scolded me on behalf of Cheng Yu with a heart - broken look, "You're as stupid as a pig!"
I really didn't notice! I'm so mad!
Zhou Wubo: "Even if you were too slow to notice at that time, what about now? Think back. Have you done something wrong? You flirted with him and made him deeply infatuated. Now you say, sorry, I'm not as infatuated as you. Think about it. Don't you think it's hurtful?"
Me: "... I still like him very much. I just didn't think about getting married. Do you have to criticize me so harshly?"
At this time, Cheng Yu timely said, "Brother Bo, there's another thing I need you to convey to your father. Last time, I showed up uninvited. The timing wasn't right, and I disturbed you and your father. I'm really sorry. Moreover, a few days ago, I even invited all my elders who settled abroad back on my own initiative and forced Yinyin to meet them. Alas, I finally understand Yinyin's anger now. I also finally understand what your father advised me. It turns out that Yinyin really didn't think that much. It was all my own wishful thinking."
Zhou Wubo was so angry that he started hitting me...
I was stunned by my elder brother's hits.
Fine...
Fine...
What a perfect innocent beauty!
Yu's concubine, I underestimated you. Sure enough, the most poisonous is a woman's heart!
-
Fortunately, Cheng Yu still had a bit of conscience.
He saved me from Zhou Wubo's random punches.
My elder brother hit really hard.
Did he think that by shifting the blame, God Yu would forget to blame him?
Humph.
Cheng Yu said, "I heard that Brother Bo has always been very supportive of the fund products I'm in charge of?"
Zhou Wubo: "Definitely. God Yu is always the best!"
Cheng Yu: "Thank you."
Zhou Wubo: "I'm your fan. It's my pleasure."
Cheng Yu: "I'm sorry to tell you that because of your sister's relationship with me, you can no longer hold any fund products I'm in charge of."
Zhou Wubo's dream of "making a little money": shattered!
-
But after all, Cheng Yu was Cheng Yu. He was really good at winning people's hearts. "My investment vision is quite good. If Brother Bo doesn't mind, I can introduce you some projects with high returns and low risks. I can't guarantee that you'll make several times more money, but at least it'll be much more profitable than buying my funds."
Zhou Wubo was immediately won over. Then he turned to me, "Zhou Yinyin, what were you doing when others were in so much pain and embarrassment? Instead of taking the initiative to comfort him and ease the embarrassment, you ignored him for ten days. Aren't you being a bit too heartless?"
Me: "..."
Fine.
I can't win against you guys.
Zhou Wubo flattered God Yu and said, "Actually, the more you avoid this kind of thing, the bigger the knot in your heart will be. If two people are happy together, this matter will soon pass. You two are busy with work and it's not easy to meet. Why don't you move in together..."
I was shocked by Zhou Wubo's lack of bottom - line, "Cohabitation?"
Cheng Yu also said, "It's not appropriate to cohabit before getting engaged."
Zhou Wubo: "Then when do you plan to get engaged?"
Cheng Yu looked at me.
Zhou Wubo also slowly turned his head to face me.
Under the direct and intense gazes of the two men, I finally compromised. "Cohabitation sounds great! I've been looking forward to it for a long time, haha..."
Damn it!
-
Although Cheng Yu still insisted that it was unnecessary, Zhou Wubo said that he believed in his character. After being flirted with by his sister for so long and still being able to keep his bottom - line, it was enough to prove that he was a gentleman. Zhou Wubo advised us to spend more time together, communicate more, and try to resolve the embarrassment as soon as possible. If Cheng Yu was worried about being blamed by the elders, he could talk to my father directly. Sure enough, this old fox Cheng Yu took the opportunity to back down.
-
After the negotiation, I went back to the company to work overtime.
When it was almost eight o'clock, I went downstairs to buy a bowl of oden and ate it while walking back to the company.
A black Mercedes drove over and stopped in front of me, blocking my way.
The window rolled down, and Cheng Yu said, "Off work?"
Me: "... There's still a bit of work left, but it'll be done soon."
Did he come to me for something?
Cheng Yu: "Have you packed your luggage?"
Me: ???
Luggage?
Me: !!!
Damn it!
Did he mean the cohabitation thing? We just talked about it this afternoon, and now I have to move to his place tonight? Weren't you so serious about refusing? Why are you so efficient in implementing it?
I swallowed the whole tempura ball and said, "It's packed!"
Cheng Yu: "Bring it down. I'll wait for you."
