For as long as I could remember, there was a little tail following behind me.
Her name was Bei Zhi.
My little sister.
She always looked timid. Only when our parents weren't around would she come forward and call me brother.
At that time, I didn't know why everyone didn't like her.
She was so cute.
I also didn't understand why our parents didn't like me playing with her.
In order to not make them angry, I could only secretly look for her and bring her delicious food.
Every time I saw her sweet smile, I felt that there was nothing better than her smile.
I watched her grow from a little ball to a little girl.
Her life was very monotonous.
She went to school, finished school, and went home.
Then she would shut herself in. Even when she ate, the servants would send her to her room.
Later on, our parents got busier and busier. I didn't have to worry about them being unhappy and would go to her room to eat with her.
But once, my mother bumped into me. That time, my mother was very angry and grounded her.
From then on, she seemed to be afraid of interacting with me.
I tried many ways to make her slowly accept me again. I was very careful. I only went to look for her after making sure that our parents wouldn't come back.
When I was thirteen, I heard our parents talking.
They were saying that they wanted to send her away because she wasn't their child.
I was very afraid. I was afraid that she would be sent away.
Then I would never see her again.
I knew that our parents wanted to send her away because of me.
Because I paid too much attention to her.
That night, I thought about it a lot.
I thought that I liked her.
It wasn't the love of a brother for a sister.
But before I could sort out those complicated feelings, Bei Zhi left.
It wasn't our parents who sent her away. She asked to leave.
From then on, I rarely saw her.
Every time I looked for her, she either avoided me or was extremely perfunctory.
I felt very bad. I didn't know what was wrong, but I didn't dare to say much. I could only go along with her.
I knew that she avoided me every time she came back, so I deliberately avoided her.
I knew that she didn't like our parents, so after she came back and saw them, I would find an excuse to call them out.
I knew …
Until she transferred back to Alice School.
When I heard the news, I was very happy. At that time, I understood a lot of things.
For example, why our parents didn't like her. For example, why our parents hated her more when I got close to her.
So at that time, I could only suppress the joy in my heart.
I still remember the day she returned to the Bei family.
She stood quietly under the vines, the breeze blowing her ink-black hair. The hanging vines were like a curtain, laying out a beautiful picture behind her.
She was as perfect as the girl in his memories.
I was dying to go over and talk to her.
But I know I can't.
It would scare her.
She would make her parents send her away again.
I'm not strong enough to protect her, so I can't get close to her.
I thought I had enough time to grow, to be able to protect her.
Unfortunately, I was wrong.
Someone appeared beside her.
His name was Fu Qin.
I haven't interacted much with Fu Qin. All I know is that he's the only successor to the Fu Family, but he has a strange temper.
When I saw her walking with Fu Qin, my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. But all I could do was watch in silence.
He watched her walk towards someone else step by step.
Sometimes I wonder why I had to be a child of the Bei family.
If I wasn't, I wouldn't have to worry so much. I just needed to stand in front of her and tell her loudly that I liked her.
But, I couldn't even do that.
On the day of the storm on Mount Shaoyang, I was trapped on the mountain. Because I was worried about her, I ignored Ji Xiaoyu's protests and insisted on going down the mountain.
In the end, because the road was slippery and the sky was dark, I ended up hurting myself.
I knew that she and Fu Qin were upstairs, and I even found out from Ji Xiaoyu that she was the one who saved Fu Qin.
I admit, at that time, I was jealous.
They'd only known each other for a few days.
She risked her life to save Fu Qin?
But not long after, she left the country.
The time she left the country was the darkest time of my life.
The Bei family suffered heavy losses.
We were surrounded by enemies.
At that time, there was a girl who stood by my side without hesitation.
I remember her because she often appeared by my side.
Her name was Lin Yin.
But I didn't need her, so I made things difficult for her.
But she clenched her teeth and persevered. No matter what I did, she silently endured it.
She accompanied me through the most difficult roads, accompanied me through the cruelest of human hearts, accompanied me through the most disgusting of meals, accompanied me through the punches and kicks of others ….
She had participated in the most embarrassing moments of my life.
When I learned that she had risked her life for me in the Lin family, my heart ached more than my shock.
At that time, I thought it was time for me to let go of her.
The girl I should protect appeared in my life.
I swore an oath to the Lin family that within five years, I would marry Lin Yin grandly.
The Lin Group gave me the funds and gave me the capital to stand up again.
All of this was because of her, Lin Yin.
I didn't expect to see her again three years later. I thought we would never see each other again in this lifetime.
She hadn't changed much in the past three years. Standing by Fu Qin's side, we were a perfect match.
At that moment, I suddenly felt relieved.
She was doing well. What was there for me to worry about?
One person's heart couldn't possibly hold two people.
The one I loved now was Lin Yin, the girl who gave me a new lease of life.
That was why I could only hide my feelings for her in the depths of my heart and seal them away. Perhaps I would only see the light of day again when I died.
Once, I also liked Bei Zhi.
But on our wedding night, Lin Yin told me that she had stood by my side without hesitation because she had told her.
If she wanted to do something, she would do it. Even if she lost, she would find a way to return to the starting point.
She said that I believed her.
That was why I placed all my bets on you.
I didn't know what to say.
It turned out that everything I had was given to me by her.
Without her words, Lin Yin would have given up on me because of the pressure from her family.
Without her words, Lin Yin wouldn't have used her life to force the Lin family to help me.
Without her words, I wouldn't have been able to marry Lin Yin. I wouldn't have had a wife who loved me more than I loved her.
Later, I found out about her from Lin Yin. She seemed to love talking about her. Every time she talked about her, she was more excited than when she saw me.
Every time, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
I really wondered if the girl who said she liked me back then was really her.
No matter how I looked at it, it seemed like she married me for her sake.
To be honest, sometimes I was jealous of her. Even if you hadn't seen each other for a few years, she still treated you the same.
Bei Zhi.
Thank you.
Thank you for leaving a deep mark in my world.
When I liked you, I didn't have the courage to chase after you. That was my greatest regret.
