How could Ye Jiushang not know that his Eldest Senior Brother did not like Xue Fanxin? Although he was also displeased, this matter was not a big deal to him. Therefore, he comforted the person in front of him gently. “Don’t take it to heart. It’s his business if he doesn’t like you, as long as I like you.”
“But he is your Eldest Senior Brother…”
“So what? Just because he’s my Eldest Senior Brother, must the person I like be liked by him?”
“That’s true, but I feel that it’s a little… I don’t know what to say. Because of me, you and Eldest Senior Brother might have some gaps. I don’t want such a thing to happen.”
“The gap between us has existed thousands of years ago.”
‘Why?”
Ye Jiushang smiled bitterly, as if he was recalling something. Then, he said, “Eldest Senior Brother has a younger sister.”
Just by mentioning a younger sister, Xue Fanxin could already guess the story. “Could it be that Eldest Senior Brother’s younger sister likes you?”
“Yes, and she’s a little crazy. In order to force me to marry her, she didn’t hesitate to threaten Eldest Senior Brother by hurting herself and let him pressure me. Eldest Senior Brother dotes on his younger sister very much, so he once came to beg me, hoping that I could marry his younger sister for his sake, even if I don’t touch her.’
“How can he do this?” Xue Fanxin originally wanted to work hard to make Lu Yibai acknowledge her, but she did not want to anymore.
Initially, she was puzzled as to why Lu Yibai hated her so much when they first met. It turned out to be because of his younger sister.
Presumably, Ah Jiu had not compromised and married Lu Yibai’s younger sister in the end. That was why there was some gap between the senior and junior brothers, and that was why Lu Yibai hated her so much.
In that case, there was no need for her to work hard to win Lu Yibai’s recognition, because she no longer acknowledged Lu Yibai as her Eldest Senior Brother.
Ye Jiushang knew that Xue Fanxin had already sentenced Lu Yibai in her heart.
He did not say much about this, nor did he argue for his Eldest Senior Brother. He continued, “Because I insisted on not marrying Eldest Senior Brother’s younger sister, I was unwilling even to marry her to give her a name even though I didn’t have to touch her. Therefore, Eldest Senior Brother was very angry at that time and said something.”
“What did Lu Yibai say back then?” In the beginning, Xue Fanxin was still willing to call Lu Yibai Eldest Senior Brother. Even if Lu Yibai hated her, she still called him Eldest Senior Brother respectfully.
But now, she no longer had the heart to. She called him by his name.
Many a time, one could tell from the way people addressed each other how close they were.
How could Ye Jiushang not tell? However, he did not mind. “Eldest Senior
Brother said at that time that if I did not marry his younger sister, I should never appear in front of his sister in the future.”
“He makes it sound like you really want to appear in front of his sister.”
“Because Eldest Senior Brother lives with his sister. In other words, if I don’t appear in front of his sister, it’s equivalent to not appearing in front of him.”
“How dare he say such things?” Xue Fanxin had only been a little dissatisfied with Lu Yibai previously. Now, she hated him. She had to say important things three times.
Ye Jiushang looked at Xue Fanxin’s angry expression and felt that she was quite cute. He kissed her little mouth. “Don’t be angry at someone not worth it.”
“I’m not angry. I just hate this person.”
“Since you hate this person so much, let’s not talk about him.”
“Tell me, you must tell me. I want to know the ins and outs of the matter. Lu
Yibai asked you not to appear in front of his sister.. What happened after that?”
