A popular female live streamer with a constant stream of wealthy patrons.

"Xia Wanyu is a very good actress; this may be her way of evading responsibility."

Fu Yanshi did not believe it.

To be precise, as a powerful figure in the business world who can control everything, keen insight is essential; he must remain vigilant and suspicious of everyone—except Xu Qinghuan.

"Sigh! I was so stupid back then. I actually thought she was gentle and lovely!" Zhou Size wished he could go back in time and slap himself twice! "Back then, Xia Wanyu told me that you only liked Xu Qinghuan because you were angry with her, because the two of them looked alike! I really believed it without a doubt."

These two people really do look alike!

The logic makes sense.

Xu Qinghuan's body stiffened for a moment. Thinking of her blood relationship with Xia Wanyu, she subconsciously felt nauseous.

"You guys chat first, I'll go out for a bit."

She didn't want anyone to notice her discomfort, mainly because she was afraid Fu Yanshi would worry.

Fu Jiajia found it boring to be there, so she said, "I'll go with you!"

Fu Yanshi watched her walk out somewhat hastily and frowned slightly. "She seems to be feeling unwell. You should find a doctor to take a look at her."

"Don't worry, with Fu Jiajia with her, Xu Qinghuan will be fine! Uncle Fu said he'll have someone check her leg injury tomorrow. It seems... after this incident, your parents seem to have accepted Xu Qinghuan?"

Zhou Sze was very surprised to see Xu Qinghuan in a private hospital!

Based on her understanding of Fu Yanshi's parents, she knew they would definitely look down on Xu Qinghuan's background. Yet, they managed to get her in to take care of Fu Yanshi and even gave up their own space to be together.

That's really amazing!

"I feel like she's hiding something from me."

Fu Yanshi's thinking was not so optimistic.

He knew his parents' temperaments better than anyone else and sensed that something was amiss. However, Fu Yanshi knew that asking Xu Qinghuan would be pointless. Perhaps it was due to her upbringing and family background that Xu Qinghuan found it difficult to fully trust anyone.

Even though she didn't intentionally suspect anything, she still couldn't fully commit herself; she always held back and hesitated repeatedly.

……

Outside the hospital, Fu Jiajia pushed Xu Qinghuan downstairs.

It was already evening, and the night was gradually falling. The surroundings were quiet, and as far as the eye could see, there was a neat forest of trees.

Neither of them spoke until Fu Jiajia finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first, "Huanhuan, why don't you call my brother? He's very worried about you."

Xu Qinghuan paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "You should talk to him. I won't contact him alone anymore. I'm a little... unsure how to face him."

Nie Zhisen's love for her was both overwhelming and omnipresent, yet gentle and knew when to advance and when to retreat, leaving Xu Qinghuan at a loss.

Despite her repeated rejections, he accepted them with a smile, without getting angry or leaving in a huff. Instead, he genuinely protected her like an older brother, except... he refused to find her a sister-in-law.

"Sigh!" Fu Jiajia sighed as well. "My brother is also very devoted to love. Actually, I've talked to him many times in private, and his parents are also urging him to get together, but my brother just won't be moved! It feels like the smile on his face only appears when you're around."

"Jiajia, I can't reciprocate your brother's feelings!"

"I know! My brother knows too!" Fu Jiajia now regrets setting them up in the first place.

In the end, not only did it not work out, but it also got stuck in a situation from which it couldn't get out!
