Why didn't you tell me earlier that my little sister is still waiting for me?

Since Ye Zhenzhen had already asked, Lin Bufan could only speak reluctantly: "Zhenzhen, I have told you about Lucy's previous experiences. Although she looks strong on the outside, she is actually very fragile on the inside. She has finally come out of the shadow of the past. If she is hit again because of this incident, I am afraid she will not be able to bear it..." Lin Bufan sighed, with worry in his tone.

Without giving Ye Zhenzhen a chance to think, Lin Bufan grabbed Ye Zhenzhen's hand and continued, "Zhenzhen, don't get me wrong, I'm not doing this for Lucy, I'm doing this for you!"

Ye Zhenzhen thought Lin Bufan was going to plead for Lucy, but he ended up saying it was for her. This immediately left Ye Zhenzhen confused: "For me? What does that mean?"

"Zhenzhen, think about it. Last time with Li Xun, Lucy dared to threaten her with her life. If it were the same this time, and Lucy directly threatened her with her life, what would you do? Would you just watch her die in front of you?

Even if she didn't do it right then and there, if she got disheartened and committed suicide after leaving, wouldn't you feel guilty? Wouldn't you regret it?"

Ye Zhenzhen:......

"If it was He Minhong who replaced you, Zhenzhen, I definitely wouldn't say these words. After all, someone as cold-blooded and ruthless as him would only feel bad for a while before it would pass. But Zhenzhen, you're different!

You are kind-hearted and loyal. Whether you are dealing with strangers or friends, you will give your all without reservation. If anything really happens to Lucy, you will definitely blame yourself for the rest of your life!" Lin Bufan stared into Ye Zhenzhen's eyes, his tone sincere and almost earnest.

Ye Zhenzhen was a little shaken by his words, but she quickly reacted: "Wait, are you blackmailing me? Using Lucy's safety to threaten me into accepting your relationship?"

Lin Bufan quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, how dare I threaten you! I'm just telling you the worst possible scenario. After all, you know Lucy's personality. She does tend to go to extremes."

Ye Zhenzhen snorted coldly and said reluctantly, "Even if what you said makes sense, what should I do now? Do you want me to turn a blind eye and watch you two continue to tangle with each other?"

Although she knew that Lin Bufan was using moral blackmail, Ye Zhenzhen had to admit that there was still a glimmer of possibility in what Lin Bufan said. If Lucy really had an accident because of this, she would really feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Of course, the most important thing is that Ye Zhenzhen didn't really plan to do anything to Lucy. After all, there are so many of them, and one more Lucy wouldn't make a difference.

But you still have to do what you should do, especially since it was He Minhong who exposed this matter, and she is your good sister. If you don't make a fuss, do you really think that she is Miss Ye and has no temper?

If she turned a blind eye this time and pretended not to know, Ye Zhenzhen was sure that Lin Bufan would become even more aggressive. Who would be the next victim?

He Minhong, Zhu Zhe, or Yu Chuhui?

By then, what will become of the 22nd floor? Will it still be habitable?

Seeing Ye Zhenzhen wavering, Lin Bufan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly leaned closer to Ye Zhenzhen, lowering his voice and saying, "Actually... I have a way to have the best of both worlds."

"What method?" Ye Zhenzhen looked at Lin Bufan with suspicion.

"We can put on a show," Lin Bufan said mysteriously. "You pretend to forgive Lucy first. Once she calms down, I'll slowly distance myself from her. This way, I can preserve her self-esteem without damaging your friendship."

Ye Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Oh? Then how do you plan to distance yourself from her?"

"Zhenzhen, have you ever heard a word?"

Lin Bufan hadn't said anything yet, so Ye Zhenzhen naturally didn't know. Therefore, Lin Bufan said directly: "Those who can't get it are always in turmoil, while those who get it are fearless!"

Seeing Lin Bufan talking nonsense again, Ye Zhenzhen said angrily: "Stop talking about useless things and tell us what to do!"

Seeing Ye Zhenzhen getting impatient, Lin Bufan smiled slightly and said, "Zhenzhen, we are family and we know our own business. You are the only one who doesn't despise someone like me.

Lucy must have me now because she didn't get me. After all, what you don't have is the best. When she really gets me, she will find that I'm not that good at all.

By then, you won't have to chase her away; she'll definitely run away on her own. This way, you won't hurt the relationship between you two sisters, and you can solve the problem perfectly. Don't you think this is a good idea?"

Ye Zhenzhen suddenly realized, "You mean, I should pretend to agree with you and Lucy first, and then you can show your ugly, shameless, despicable, unscrupulous, worse than an animal, unforgivable, shameless, filthy, and disgusting side, so that Lucy will be disgusted by you, hate you, and then leave you, right?"

Lin Bufan felt that Ye Zhenzhen was venting her personal anger, but he had no evidence!

"Uh—although Zhenzhen, you're right, you don't need to use so many adjectives."

"It's okay, I have a large vocabulary, it won't be a problem!"

Is this a question of whether you have a large vocabulary?

This is a matter of brotherly dignity!

Ignoring Lin Bufan's scowl, Ye Zhenzhen continued, "Although your plan is good, have you ever thought about one thing?

Why can't Lucy like him, but I can? Am I worse than Lucy? "After saying that, Ye Zhenzhen reached out and grabbed Lin Bufan's ear, as if she would never let go unless Lin Bufan gave a reasonable explanation!

Lin Bufan immediately broke out in a cold sweat and quickly waved his hands, saying, "Zhenzhen, you are really wronging me! Lucy has never seen my true face. She just likes my body. She is cheap.

But you’re different—”

Lin Bufan suddenly leaned closer to Ye Zhenzhen and lowered his voice, "You've known for a long time that I'm despicable and shameless, but you still love me wholeheartedly, don't you? What does this prove? It proves that you have a unique vision and truly love me!"

"Lin Bufan!" Ye Zhenzhen was so angry that she picked up the pillow and threw it at his face: "Do you still have any shame?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Bufan dodged and said with a playful smile: "I'm just praising you! Look, Lucy can only see the surface, but you can see the essence. How can the realms be the same?"

Ye Zhenzhen was so angry at Lin Bufan's twisted logic that she rolled her eyes. "According to you, should I thank you for giving me this opportunity to show off my discerning eye?"

Lin Bufan waved his hand in rejection: "That's not necessary!"

But before Ye Zhenzhen could say anything, Lin Bufan hurriedly said, "But if you really want to thank me, tonight we can..."

"Don't even think about it!" Ye Zhenzhen interrupted Lin Bufan directly: "From today on, you will sleep on the sofa for a month!"

"Ah?" Lin Bufan suddenly looked sad. "Zhenzhen, isn't this punishment too severe? I'm just trying to find a solution to the problem!"

"Heavy?" Ye Zhenzhen sneered. "Then let me ask you, if Lucy really did what you said, and after discovering your beastly side, she still refused to let go, what would you do?"

Lin Bufan was speechless for a moment, hesitating: "This...that..."

"I can't say it anymore?" Ye Zhenzhen crossed her arms and said, "Or is this exactly what you want?"
