Chapter 293 Let's go to work together
“Big brother, I know you don’t lack anything, so I gave you this.” Cheng Shuyan opened the box, and inside lay a white card with a string of numbers on it. Yunzhi glanced at it curiously, wondering what the numbers meant.
Yun Yun glanced at Cheng Shuyan, not understanding what he meant. He looked up at Cheng Shuyan with a frown, "What is this? A card?"
"Brother, I know you had a less-than-perfect relationship in high school. I know you were investigating that girl's whereabouts recently, so I took the liberty of finding her contact information for you. You can add her on WeChat and ask her why she left without saying goodbye."
Cheng Shuyan, still smiling, casually dropped a bombshell.
The living room, which had been somewhat noisy, suddenly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Yunzhi stared in disbelief at her older brother, whose face turned pale and then red.
She gasped, covering her mouth with one hand. Wait, her older brother had been in a relationship? No way! In her memory, her brother seemed quite averse to girls outside of family. When had he ever been in a relationship? Was there something wrong with her memory? Or was the memory the system had transmitted to her incomplete?
Just as Yunzhi was completely bewildered, the system's mechanical voice echoed in her mind.
[Host, rest assured, your memories have been completely transferred. The reason you don't have this memory is because very few people know about Yun Yun's ill-fated romance.]
Oh, not many people know this? Was your brother dumped by that girl? No wonder in her memory, your brother was always very averse to girls other than family members. She always thought he was afraid of women, but it turns out he was heartbroken.
That card… Yunzhi’s eyes couldn’t help but dart toward the card, as if trying to see the numbers on it. Just then, Yunyun finally reacted, snatched the box, and slammed it shut.
He was panting heavily, glaring angrily at Cheng Shuyan.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My first love is still alive, so how could I have any exes!"
Although Yun Yun said that, she tightened her grip on the box little by little, showing no intention of returning it to Cheng Shuyan.
He perfectly embodied the word "stubborn."
Yunzhi and her parents exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the two of them were also completely bewildered. It seemed that she wasn't the only one who had been kept in the dark. She suddenly became interested in her older brother's ex-girlfriend. She wondered what kind of girl she was that could have dumped her brother.
When my older brother was in high school, he must have been from country Y?
Just as Yunzhi was pondering who might be the brave one, Cheng Shuyan smiled slightly and dropped another bombshell, "Is that so? Then I must have misunderstood. If online dating doesn't count as a relationship, then you probably haven't been in a relationship yet, brother."
Online dating? No, my brother actually has an online dating experience?
Looking at her older brother's face, Yunzhi really couldn't understand why someone with such a face could have an online relationship and still get dumped. However, if it was an online relationship, it was normal that their family didn't know.
It seems Cheng Shuyan has investigated her brother's affairs thoroughly. She is even more curious about who this person is. However, since her brother has this contact information, he might get back together with his ex. What about Ji Ziyang then? A hint of hesitation flashed in Yunzhi's eyes. She wondered whether she should give Ji Ziyang a heads-up in advance.
She originally thought that Ji Ziyang's interest in her older brother was only temporary, but judging from the last time, she seemed to be serious. However, this was also her older brother's private matter, and it wouldn't be appropriate for her to tell Ji Ziyang rashly.
"Stop talking, come in quickly." Yun Yun, afraid that Cheng Shuyan would reveal more of his secrets, couldn't bear it any longer and pulled him to sit down in the dining room. He glanced at his parents and Yun Zhi as if burying his head in the sand, then lowered his voice and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure this contact information is Xin Xin's?"
“Yes, but let me remind you, brother, her name isn’t Xin Xin. Xin Xin is probably her online name. There seems to be another reason why she left without saying goodbye.” Cheng Shuyan also lowered his voice, but the living room was too quiet, so even though the two of them lowered their voices, everyone else could hear them clearly.
Yun's parents walked into the restaurant and sat down, looking bewildered. They looked at each other and then at their son, who was pretending to be deep in thought. They looked at each other, each wanting the other to ask first, but after hesitating for nearly ten minutes, neither of them spoke. Finally, Yunzhi couldn't help but speak first.
"Brother, what's the deal with your online girlfriend? I don't know anything about her. Who is she? How did you two meet? Where is she from? Is she from China or Y country?"
Yun Yun originally wanted to play dumb, since as long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would be embarrassed. Who knew her sister would ask so directly? This couple was simply her nemesis. Yun Yun coughed twice, glared at Yun Zhi, and said, "It's nothing, hurry up and eat."
"Even if you don't tell me, I can ask Shuyan." Yunzhi snorted softly, muttering a few words under her breath as she ate.
Yun Yun slammed his cutlery down on the plate, looked at Cheng Shuyan, and warned him, word by word, "This is our secret, you can't tell anyone!"
He emphasized the words "anyone," but his eyes remained fixed on Yunzhi. Yunzhi's lips twitched slightly. Why not just name names? However, to avoid putting Cheng Shuyan in a difficult position, Yunzhi decided to speak first.
"Alright, I understand, brother. I won't ask anymore. Anyway, you'll bring your sister-in-law back sooner or later. But there's another possibility: your sister-in-law might not like you."
Yunzhi's words successfully darkened Yunyun's face. He picked up a cola chicken wing from the side and placed it on Yunzhi's plate. "Alright, eat your food and don't talk. Even eating can't shut you up."
Yunzhi pouted.
After the meal, as Cheng Shuyan stood up to leave, he whispered to Yunzhi, "I'll pick you up tomorrow."
Yunzhi nodded, remembering her promise to Cheng Shuyan. However, Yun Yun, who was standing nearby, overheard this and frowned, asking, "What's he coming to pick you up for tomorrow? Is Cheng Shuyan, as the company president, so idle? How will he support you if he doesn't work hard?"
Yunzhi really wanted to say that she didn't need Cheng Shuyan's support, but in the end, she told the truth, "Shuyan's company is a bit busy. I'll go to his company with him tomorrow to help him with some documents."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun reacted as if betrayed by Yun Zhi, her voice suddenly rising, "What did you say?"
