The love story of a wealthy brother and sister

Shen Yilin was on a business trip in Shanghai. One day, she suddenly called Lin Jingran to ask him to have dinner with her in the evening. He was very hesitant and was even thinking of excuses to decline. But Shen Jingxuan was right next to him. She winked at him to indicate that he should agree. However, he still frowned the whole time. Shen Jingxuan was so anxious that he quickly typed a string of words on WeChat:

It was not easy for her to muster up the courage.

This sentence made him inexplicably soften his heart - so he finally agreed. Lin Jingran felt that if there was really something, it should be made clear. After all, they had known each other for so long and were relatives.

On the way to the appointment in the evening, he kept sending voice messages to Wei Jin:

It’s been so many years... Why do I feel so attractive?

Wei Jin replied: You do have one. Most of the people I found look like you. Wan Wan Lei Qing~

Lin Jingran was driving. When he saw the message, he couldn't help laughing. He then started typing while the light was red: Why don't you come to me directly?

Wei Jin quickly replied: Stop going crazy, I wouldn’t dare to look for you even if you gave me ten times the courage.

When the red light ended, he also started sending voice messages: Okay, okay, I won’t tease you anymore, I’m going to eat.

Wei Jin replied again: Do you want me to help you?

Lin Jingran still replied in voice: She can’t do that, she is too familiar with him.

Wei Jin also replied in voice: I wish you success, everyone’s white moonlight.

Shen Yilin had dressed up specially, wearing a silver tube-top dress, and the reserved seat was also by the window - completely the standard for a date;

"Congratulations," Lin Jingran casually sat down opposite her, "Your career is getting better and better."

"You are doing well too," Shen Yilin smiled at him, "Feiyu is doing so well now."

"It mainly depends on Shen Jingxuan," Lin Jingran deliberately made the atmosphere relaxed, "I just get by."

"I don't know why, but I keep thinking about the time when I lived in your house," Shen Yilin said calmly, looking into his eyes seriously, "It's been many years since then."

"Yeah." Lin Jingran nodded, still not knowing what to say.

"I had a video call with Xiaoci a few days ago." - The two words "Xiaoci" were like some kind of stimulant. Lin Jingran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and look at her. His eyes began to wander, and he pretended to ask casually: "What did we talk about?"

"I asked her," Shen Yilin still looked into his eyes seriously, "Can I pursue Lin Jingran?" - He didn't expect her to be so direct, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't joke."

"She said of course," Shen Yilin ignored what he said and continued, "She is quite supportive because she knows that I have liked you for a long, long time."

Lin Jingran's smile completely disappeared, and his face became stiff. What no one knew was that something in his heart was cracking and falling rapidly. It took him a long while to come back to his senses, and he hurriedly said, "You know," he looked at her and began to use a universal sentence, "I have always treated you as my sister."

"I have been in Hong Kong for the past few years," she ignored Lin Jingran's words and continued to talk to herself, "I am busy with my studies and career. In fact, someone is pursuing me."

Lin Jingran nodded, and the waiter suddenly came over to serve the dishes. The two stopped talking, but Shen Yilin could sense his uneasiness, so she smiled at him and comforted him, "Don't be nervous, it's just a meal."

"Yeah," he continued nodding, and smiled casually, "I'm not nervous, it's just——"

"You have always been free," she interrupted him, her tone still calm, "I just want to tell you my thoughts. At least I have to do my best. I don't want to tie you up to do anything."

"Okay," Lin Jingran looked at her, took a deep breath, and suddenly asked, "Lin Yingci encouraged you to come..." He paused for a moment and thought of an adjective with difficulty, "Come and confess?"

"Yeah," Shen Yilin nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and smiled awkwardly, "Will you be unhappy?"

"What's there to be unhappy about?" Lin Jingran also smiled, but his expression was very ugly. "There's nothing to be unhappy about."

"Well," Shen Yilin nodded seriously, "I think you should give me a chance. I can also come to Shanghai to develop. At least——"

"Okay," he suddenly interrupted her, then looked at her confused eyes and confirmed, "Okay."

Late at night, Lin Jingran called Wei Jin out again - under the pretext of "having a drink together" - but in fact he was drinking alone, and Wei Jin sat next to him helplessly, she didn't say anything, just watched him get drunk quietly - when he drank too much, he would start talking nonsense, as if he was full of anger - it was all because of Lin Yingci:

"I mean nothing to her, nothing at all,"

“She really doesn’t care about me at all.”

"She actually brought me and Shen Yilin together. She's going too far."

——These few words were repeated throughout the night. Wei Jin wanted to say something several times but didn't. Lin Jingran kept looking at her, "You know what, Wei Jin, she's hoping that I'll fall in love quickly so that she can let go of her completely."

"But," she finally couldn't help but frown and remind, "You've talked about it a lot, too. What's different about Shen Yilin?"

Lin Jingran's eyes became confused, and after calming down a little, he said, "It's different. The Shen family and our family are very close—"

"Oh, I see."

"I have already agreed." His eyes were sluggish at this time, looking forward blankly like a puppet, and he muttered to himself, "I have agreed to her confession."

"It's okay," Wei Jin sighed, then gently leaned closer to him and patted his shoulder - to be honest, every time she saw Lin Jingran like this, she was always heartbroken - at this moment, she even wanted to call Lin Yingci and ask her why she did such a thing. Didn't she know that she had a great influence on Lin Jingran?

"I'll find a chance to talk to her." She tried to comfort him.

"No," he still shook his head vigorously, "Don't say anything."

"But--"

"Really, don't worry about it," he interrupted her quickly, and suddenly laughed at himself, "Doesn't she want me to be with her?" - his eyes looking at Wei Jin also became firm, "I'll just do what she wants, and see if she is satisfied or not -"

"But it's not good for Shen Yilin to do this—"

"I will be responsible for her," Lin Jingran's thoughts suddenly became clear, "When that day comes, I really want to see if she will really be happy."
