Dejected, Ru Feng walked out, realizing it wouldn’t change anything. She couldn’t tell her brother she was his sister, and her anger only grew.
Ru Feng stormed out, feeling anger boil over as she texted her brother, “You despotic tyrant, you sly fox!” The relief was short-lived, however, as she realized she had used his old nickname. Panic set in, and she frantically removed her SIM card. Luckily, it wasn’t registered under her real name, so her brother shouldn’t connect it to her. She planned to buy a new number once she got paid.
Turning back, she froze. Situ Qi Feng stood in a sharp black suit, bending down to open a car door for a woman in an elegant white dress adorned with a dazzling crystal necklace. Ru Feng’s gaze lingered on the necklace; she recognized it as her brother’s design. Despite being the leader of the Situ Group, he rarely showcased his jewelry talent, sharing pieces only on special occasions, like when she and her sister turned eighteen. The fact that this woman wore his design and received special attention from her second brother was unexpected.
She had never seen her second brother smile at anyone else or open a car door for another woman.
Ru Feng watched as he and the strange woman walked side by side toward the office building. He didn’t say a word, but she sensed a shift in his usual cold demeanor, indicating he was in a good mood.
“Second Brother!” she called softly, but then swiftly turned and left.
Her feelings were complex, a mix of joy and melancholy, like watching a daughter grow up. Yet, she felt happy that her brother was beginning to understand his life should include more than just her.
Her departure was good, allowing him to gradually step out of a world focused solely on her and appreciate other beautiful experiences.
Meanwhile, Situ Qi Feng, who had entered the lobby, suddenly stopped and looked back.
“What’s wrong?” his female companion asked. Situ Qi Feng furrowed his brow but shook his head, “Nothing, let’s go.” He felt his heart racing unusually fast.
They had only walked a few steps when a whirlwind swept past.
“Elder Brother?” Qi Feng saw his brother rush out in a panic and changed his expression as he followed.
“Hey, you two…”
