Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was quiet and neither of them spoke anymore.

Half an hour later, the vehicle stopped at the alley intersection.

Shen Anran was about to pull the car door handle, but Zhou Jingyan had already taken the lead and opened the door for her.

"Miss Liu, please." His tone was gentle and polite, making people feel comfortable.

Shen Anran was slightly stunned, then reacted and smiled, "Thank you."

After getting off the car, Shen Anran held Zhou Jingyan's coat in her hand, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

After a moment of silence, she raised her head, handed the coat to Zhou Jingyan, and said softly, "This is your coat."

Zhou Jingyan took the coat with a smile, and then gently draped it over Shen Anran's shoulders.

"Come in, it's cold outside. It's not too late to return it to me when you have the chance."

Shen Anran couldn't help but ask the question in her heart: "Mr. Zhou, are you so nice to everyone?"

Zhou Jingyan paused slightly, then responded with a gentle look: "No, it's because..."

"Sister." Liu Shuming's voice came from a distance, interrupting Zhou Jingyan's explanation.

Liu Shuming walked quickly to Shen Anran and looked at Zhou Jingyan curiously.

Then he turned around and asked Shen Anran: "Sister, who is this?"

Shen Anran did not explain to him, but said goodbye to Zhou Jingyan: "Mr. Zhou, I won't bother you anymore."

Zhou Jingyan nodded slightly.

He watched Shen Anran and Liu Shuming leave until he could no longer see their figures clearly before getting into the car.

Liu Shuming followed closely behind Shen Anran, with a hint of grievance in his eyes.

Although he was half a head taller than Shen Anran, he seemed a little uneasy at this moment, like a child who was afraid of angering an adult.

He spoke cautiously: "Sister, am I disturbing you?"

Shen Anran rubbed his irritated brows and said, "No, Mr. Zhou and I only met once."

Liu Shuming was still a little unsure and asked curiously, "Really? But the way he looks at you always feels a little strange."

Shen Anran smiled slightly and changed the subject: "Have you finished your homework?"

"Sister, I don't have so much homework as a freshman."

……

She was careless. She thought Liu Shuming was in his senior year of high school and asked him to study hard and not skip classes in the afternoon.

It seems that this little guy is also playing himself.

Liu Shuming seemed to sense the tension and quickly changed the subject, "Sister, are the red spots on your body any better?"

Shen Anran followed up on his words and said, "Much better."

"Then I'll apply the medicine on you, okay?"

"also."

A stranger took over his sister's body, but his first reaction was not to resist. Instead, he acted so close to her.

Could it be that he knows the secret hidden in this body?

Shen Anran thought deeply for a long time, but still could not connect him with the person in his memory of his previous life.

Since Liu Shuming is willing to act out a drama of loving sister and filial brother with her, then she can only try her best to play her role well.

Since their last separation, Shen Anran has never met Zhou Jingyan again.

She is becoming more and more adept at her work, and her supervisor, who used to always have a stern face towards her, now often praises her for being smart and capable.

Liu Shuming acted in front of her every day, as if they had a good relationship.

There was not a shadow of lies in his eyes, but they were full of sincerity.

So, Shen Anran began to treat him as her own brother sincerely.

That day, Shen Anran received a phone call. The voice on the other end of the phone claimed to be Liu Shuming's class teacher.

He told her in a serious tone that Liu Shuming had a conflict with a classmate at school and accidentally injured the other person during the fight.

Shen Anran's eyes darkened slightly, "Okay, I'll be right there."

She hurried into the changing room, took off her work clothes, and was about to leave when she was accidentally caught by the manager.

The manager was very busy, and when he saw her relaxed look, his tone immediately became stern.

"Liu Yiyi, where are you going? It's working hours now, not your time to rest. If you don't wear work clothes, you will be fined 500 yuan."

"I have an urgent matter and need to take half a day off." Shen Anran said sincerely.

"Not approved. Go back immediately, change into your work clothes and continue working."

"Then I'll quit." Shen Anran said coldly, striding out without looking back.

The manager cursed angrily behind her, "Then forget about your salary! Get out of here, now."

Shen Anran curled the corners of her mouth slightly. She had always been the one to cheat others, and no one could hold on to what belonged to her.

She hurried to school and went straight to the head teacher's office.

At this time, her "well-behaved" brother was sitting on a chair with his head lowered. His aggrieved look made Shen Anran's anger rise all of a sudden.

She strode up to Liu Shuming and asked, "What's going on?"

When Liu Shuming heard Shen Anran's voice, he raised his aggrieved little face and looked at her.

There was apology in her voice: "Sister, I'm sorry."

There was an obvious bruise on Liu Shuming's cheek, and traces of redness and swelling were faintly visible under the skin.

There was a deep scratch under one eye, as if it had been scratched by a sharp object.

The scar was shocking, and the blood had not yet dried, which made people terrified.

If the attack had been more accurate, his eyes would have suffered irreparable damage, or even blindness on the spot.

When Shen Anran heard Liu Shuming's apology, she was so angry that she laughed out loud.

"Then tell me, what are you sorry for?"

Liu Shuming's heart tightened, thinking that Shen Anran was really angry.

He hurriedly defended himself: "I shouldn't have fought with my classmates, let alone caused you trouble."

"Is this your explanation?"

"Sister, I..."

Just then, several people pushed the door open and walked in, led by a boy about the same age as Liu Shuming.

His face was a mess, and his injuries looked even more serious than Liu Shuming's. The bruises and scars on his face were even more shocking.

He pointed at Liu Shuming, turned to the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Dad, he was the one who beat me."

The man was furious: "You dare to hit my son? I will make you pay the price and spend the rest of your life in jail."

Shen Anran glanced at them coldly, her tone calm but with unquestionable firmness: "Don't speak too soon. We can't make a conclusion about who is right and who is wrong until the investigation is thorough."

She knew in her heart that Liu Shuming was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to cause trouble.

Since he hurt someone, it must be that the other party's extreme behavior or words angered him.

The man angrily shouted, "Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that?"

The man's name is Zhang Teng, and he is a well-known figure in the real estate industry.

Whenever he went out, people always kept their distance from him and treated him with respect. No one had ever dared to contradict him like this.

"I'm his older sister, and my brother has always been very well-behaved. He wouldn't have hurt anyone on his own initiative, unless someone said something they shouldn't have said or did something they shouldn't have done."

Shen Anran cast his cold and sharp eyes towards the young man beside him.

The latter was obviously a little guilty when he met her eyes.

Then he straightened up again, pointed at the wound on his face, and said loudly: "I was just walking normally, and he suddenly punched me. Look, this is the evidence that he hurt me."
