After the mother was reborn, she was deeply involved in the battle for favor between her sons

Ji Tingyang's figure was getting closer and closer. Wen Li clenched her hands at her sides, becoming more and more nervous as her heartbeat gradually accelerated.

Eyes facing each other.

Wen Li opened her red lips slightly and whispered to him, "Ji Tingyang..."

However, Ji Tingyang seemed not to hear her voice, and his eyes swept across her indifferently, without any waves.

The figure passed by her without any communication, like a stranger.

Wen Li's face turned pale, and she froze in place as if she had suffered a great shock. Almost subconsciously, she reached out and grabbed his clothes.

Ji Tingyang paused, his cold and furrowed brows revealing a hint of impatience, and he just stared at her silently.

"Can I, can I talk to you alone?" Wen Li looked up at him, with an uneasy look under her pale face.

"No need, just say it here if you have anything to say." Ji Tingyang put his hands in his pockets and looked at her calmly.

Wen Li felt the gazes of the people around her, some of whom were watching a show and mocking her. Those gazes were like silver needles, piercing her painfully.

She wanted to avoid those gazes, but Ji Tingyang had no intention of helping her. He kept looking at his watch, as if he was in a hurry.

Wen Li bit her lip, fearing that he would say "I have something else" and leave her, so she did not dare to delay and apologized to him in a soft voice.

"I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to fall into the water last time. I was confused at the time and couldn't understand why I did that." Her tears welled up, and her eyes were filled with pitiful tears as she spoke.

She seemed to know how to use this advantage to attract people's sympathy and love, and several men around her even wanted to comfort her to stop crying.

"Then you stole the documents because you were dizzy and unconscious?" Ji Tingyang said coldly.

In fact, from the very beginning, Ji Tingyang had thought about the possibility that she was the one who stole the money, but he didn't want to and was unwilling to suspect Wen Li.

When the butler brought the blank document claiming to be the leaker's information, combined with Wen Li's reaction.

Many things are self-evident.

If this happened before Lin Xu appeared, he might have hated her while absorbing the remaining warmth from her, refusing to let her go, torturing each other until the end of time.

But now it was different, his mother was back, and all his previous thoughts about her were taken back from Wen Li. Lin Xu also loved him without reservation, they were bound by blood and would never be separated.

So he no longer needs Wen Li.

Because he still felt a little guilty about torturing Wen Li in the past, he didn't plan to investigate the leak and the fall into the water, and the two of them went their separate ways.

Wen Li's head buzzed when she heard Ji Tingyang's words. Did he already know?

Her lips moved, wanting to say something, and she heard Ji Tingyang continue, "I don't plan to pursue this matter, let it go."

After saying that, he pulled the clothes out of her hands and turned away ruthlessly.

Wen Li looked at his departing back, tears welling up in her eyes, finally sliding silently down her cheeks.

Xu Wei, who had been watching the show for a long time, sneered, "Oh, it was a good show. Some people want to go back to their ex, but unfortunately, the ex just ignores them."

Xu Wei laughed for a while, and then was too lazy to pay attention to Wen Li anymore. She took the man's hand and left the club.

Wen Li lowered her head and sobbed softly.

The crowd dispersed, and the staff who had been idle for a long time finally came to their senses, remembered their work, and reached out to ask Wen Li, who had no members, to leave.

"Wen Li?!"

A deep voice filled with surprise, someone called her name from behind.

Wen Li paused in her tracks and turned back following the voice. When she saw the face that looked somewhat similar to Ji Tingyang, she was stunned.

"Why are you here?" After finding out that it was indeed Wen Li, Ji Zeqiu's face lit up with joy and he quickly walked up to her. However, when he saw the tears on her face, he suddenly became worried, "Why are you crying? Did someone bully you?"

He frantically searched for tissues in his pocket, but found nothing. Finally, he pulled her sleeve to wipe away her tears.

After receiving a moment of warmth from Ji Zeqiu, Wen Li's suppressed and uncomfortable mood couldn't be helped but burst out, just like a wronged child. The more others coaxed her, the louder she cried. At this time, she also threw herself into his arms, sobbing.

Ji Zeqiu hugged her, nervous and flustered.

for a long time.

Wen Li finally stopped crying in Ji Zeqiu's car. She gathered the tissue in her hand and whispered "thank you" to him.

"There's no need to be so polite between us." Ji Zeqiu smiled and said happily, "Are you here to see me?"

"I'm here to find Ji Tingyang." Wen Li's clear voice still contained a hint of tears.

Hearing her words, the corners of Ji Zeqiu's lips froze, and the smile between his eyebrows disappeared.

He tightened his grip on the steering wheel until his fingertips turned white.

He really shouldn't have any expectations, Wen Li would never take the initiative to look for him.

Is it true that in her heart, he will never be as good as Ji Tingyang?

"Didn't he... abandon you for Lin Xu? Why are you still looking for him? Can't you let him go?" Ji Zeqiu's voice was slightly bitter.

"No!" Wen Li hastily retorted, not knowing who she was trying to refute, "I went to him just to tell him about my father."

She told Ji Zeqiu that her father was going to be laid off and was worried about his work.

Hearing that it was not because of his emotional reluctance to part with Ji Tingyang, Ji Zeqiu's depressed mood faded away instantly, and he said excitedly: "Isn't it just a job? I can help your father find a job with a salary not lower than the current one."

Ji Zeqiu is no longer the newcomer without any strength. When Wen Li's father was looking for a job, he couldn't help at all and could only let Ji Tingyang take the lead.

But now, he has accumulated a lot of connections in the entertainment industry over the past few years, so it is easy for him to introduce someone to a job.

Hearing that Ji Zeqiu could help, Wen Li was delighted and asked in surprise, "Really?"

"Of course, I can arrange it tomorrow." Ji Zeqiu assured.

The problem that had troubled her for a few days was solved, and the sad expression on Wen Li's face disappeared, with a bright smile on the corners of her lips.

Ji Zeqiu's smile also brightened, and he asked her, "Are you hungry? Do you want to go eat something?"

Wen Li hesitated for a moment and shook her head, "Just take me back to school. I have early classes tomorrow."

"Okay." Ji Zeqiu took the steering wheel and drove back to school.

Wen Li asked him to stop at the school gate, and said goodbye to Ji Zeqiu while unbuckling his seat belt.

Ji Zeqiu looked at her several times, wanting to say something but stopping himself. Finally, before she got off the car, he mustered up the courage and said, "Wen Li."

"Ok?"

"Will I always be just Ji Tingyang's younger brother to you?"

"of course not!"

Just as Ji Zeqiu was about to get excited, he heard her continue, "You are still my friend!"
