"Damn, I’m so frustrated with losing. If I had lost to someone more handsome or smarter, I’d accept it, but losing to you, my own sister, is something I can’t swallow!"

Hua Hua spoke rapidly, feeling a pressing frustration in her heart that she needed to vent. Since everything was already out in the open, she didn’t bother holding back, energetically recounting how she used to love her brother so deeply to the point of wanting to die for him. Chenxing was unable to fully digest what she was hearing.

Just as Chenxing’s face turned pale, Hua Hua suddenly hugged her tightly: "Are you shocked? Really shocked? Hey, don’t feel threatened!"

Chenxing: "..." She still thought it was unlikely. How could this be?

Hua Hua patted her back: "Alright, alright, I admit defeat to you. After all, you’re my sister. No matter how shameless I may be, I can’t fight my sister over a man, can I?"

Chenxing: "Really?"

Hua Hua let go of her and walked over to the solemn-looking Ling Yin, saying: "But, I have no regrets at all, because if you hadn’t come along, I wouldn’t have met the second love of my life. The love I have for my Ling Yin now is just as deep as the love I once had for my brother. Don’t look at me like that, I’ll tell you, life has been kind to me. I, Hua Chu, dare to love and hate. I genuinely loved my brother back then, and now I love my Brother Ling with the same sincerity. Anyone who dares to stir trouble between me and my Brother Ling, humph, our friendship ends!"

Then, with a smooch, she kissed Ling Yin on the left cheek.

Ling Yin’s once gloomy face unconsciously blossomed into a bright smile. He patted Hua Hua’s shoulder, nodding with slight embarrassment, as if caught off guard: "Huanhuan immediately closed her mouth."

Gu Shaocheng looked at Chenxing and noticed she was still in a daze, tapping her forehead: "Get in the car, let’s go eat."

Sitting in the car, Chenxing turned to Gu Shaocheng: "Really?"

"What do you mean really?"

"Hua Hua, she really... um, loved you?"

Gu Shaocheng drove with focus, his expression unchanged, like still water: "He already said, it’s all in the past."

"What about you?"

"You’re really silly, Hua Hua was right about that." Gu Shaocheng gently stroked her hair: "Don’t overthink it."

"You’re the silly one!" Chenxing pouted, "I can’t believe you all kept this from me, I’m truly silly!" As she thought back, she couldn’t help feeling that there was something ambiguous between Shaocheng and Hua Hua.

Gu Shaocheng looked at her contemplative expression and ruffled her hair: "What are you thinking? If I had even the slightest thought, do you think you’d have any place in this?"

Chenxing: "Oh, so what you mean is if you had even the slightest thought, my brother would definitely kick me out?"

"Hey, that’s not what I meant. I only have brotherly love towards Hua Hua, don’t think too much. If I really had any sort of feelings for him, having him by my side all these years, I would’ve made a move long ago, and there wouldn’t be this texting thing with you."

"Who’s texting with you?" Chenxing thought for a moment and felt that Gu Shaocheng’s reasoning made sense.

"Who else, my wife of course."

Chenxing let out a chuckle, changing her seating position, "I just didn’t expect it. It’s so unbelievable."
