She finally gave Ye Huanyan a bath and used all her strength to move her from the bathroom to the bed. She had a high fever, and Ji Xiaoyue did not dare to sleep. After putting a cold towel on her head, she yawned and went to the bathroom to see the clothes she had changed out of.
She pinched her nose and looked at the smelly business suit, thinking that she should just throw it away. However, when she saw the logo on the back of the neck, she opened her mouth wide and took a deep breath. This price was enough for her to buy a whole season's worth of clothes. It was better not to throw it away. She could just wash it and wear it.
The cold towel was placed on Ye Huanyan's forehead, intermittently stimulating her burning and confused nerves.
She thought about the entanglement between her and Ling Han all these years, and it became more and more like a dream, and she became more and more irrational. She indulged in a half-awake state, and had the same dream over and over again.
First, the scene of getting off work repeated. He left indifferently, not caring about her life or death.
Then, the scene changed.
At the edge of the cliff, he watched as she fell into the abyss. His eyes were cold, and he left resolutely.
"Ling Han... Han... Ling Han..."
When Ji Xiaoyue returned to the bedside with a new towel, she heard her ravings. She could not help but mutter, "You're burning up like this, and you're still thinking about Ling Han?"
She and Ye Huanyan were university classmates. They had the same major, the same dormitory, and later graduated to the same company. She witnessed Ye Huanyan turn from an innocent and lively young lady to the well-organized Secretary Ye in the workplace. She also witnessed Ye Huanyan's expectations for Ling Han shattering now.
There was a broken phone on the bedside. It seemed to light up twice, but the screen was broken, so she could not see what it was.
Ji Xiaoyue changed the wet towel on her forehead and stared at her face with mixed feelings.
Ye Huanyan was the person she envied the most when she was in university.
She was beautiful, had a good figure, and a good temper. She kept a low profile and was usually polite to the people around her. She didn't put on the airs of a rich young lady at all. If it weren't for her parents driving over to help her move her things and bringing her graduation gift, no one in the dormitory would have known that her family was so rich. The limited edition white sports car parked below the dormitory was too eye-catching.
What she envied the most was that she had an older brother at that time. He would always ask someone to send her a lot of delicious food and fun things to play with. Everyone in the dormitory benefited from this.
At that time, Ji Xiaoyue didn't know that Ye Huanyan's brother was Ling Han. She also didn't know that Ling Han wasn't her biological brother.
She only remembered that every weekend, there would be an auntie holding a loudspeaker downstairs and shouting, "408 Ye Huanyan, the things your brother sent you are here. Come down and get them."
Then everyone in the dormitory would rush downstairs, wanting to see the legendary brother.
Although Ye Huanyan usually kept a low profile, her food and clothes were not bad. Everyone in the dormitory could guess that her family must be good. With such a roommate and a single brother, coupled with Ye Huanyan's appearance, everyone in the dormitory was looking forward to meeting this Ye Xiong.
But Ling Han never came in person. He always asked someone to bring the things to the dormitory, put them down, and left. There was not even a word in the box.
The girls in the dormitory weren't sad. After all, this Brother Ye was too sensible. He always sent four copies of the things. The girls in the dormitory obediently took the box back and divided the spoils. There were many fashionable toys and imported snacks. It was like a robot cat's bag of treasures. It became the expectation of the 408 dormitory every week.
Until graduation, Ji Xiaoyue was lucky enough to see the legendary "Brother Ye" from afar. At that time, they were taking graduation photos. The two girls in the dormitory packed up in advance and left with their parents. After hugging each other and crying, she went to wash her face. When she came back to find Ye Huanyan, she only saw Ye Huanyan's parents taking photos in front of the school building.
"Looking for Yan Yan. I just saw her go that way. She saw her brother coming." Jiang Meilan smiled and pointed in the direction.
Thus, she was able to see Ling Han from afar and was shocked.
Sure enough, he was the same as the girls in 408's legends. He was even more outstanding. He was extraordinarily handsome and wore a black suit that set off his tall figure. Countless words of praise flashed through Ji Xiaoyue's mind. In the end, it turned into a sigh. "Comparisons are odious. Why don't I have such a good life?"
Before this, at the graduation party, Ji Xiaoyue and Ye Huanyan had a night chat. At that time, the other two people in the dormitory were drunk and talked too much. Ye Huanyan was slightly tipsy. She pointed at the stars in the sky and laughed until her saliva was about to come out. "Xiao Yue, my brother is even better looking than the stars in the sky."
Ji Xiaoyue had a good tolerance for alcohol, but people who could not get drunk after a thousand glasses had their own sorrows. For example, these few drunkards in front of her gave her a headache.
"Good looking, good looking. Your whole family is good looking."
"I like my brother very, very much. My brother is the best man in the world."
"Do you have a crush on your brother?"
"No … He's not even my biological brother …" Ye Huanyan leaned on her shoulder, her face bright red. "You must be very disappointed, right? I know that you guys are a bunch of ill-intentioned people. You're all thinking about my Brother Linghan, so I won't let you see, hmph!"
Ji Xiaoyue did not know whether to laugh or cry. The drunk Ye Huanyan was like a child. She had completely lost her usual decorum and was simply fighting for every inch of land. She hugged her neck and shook it. "I must marry Brother Ling Han."
"Okay, okay, okay. Marry him, marry him …"
Although Ji Xiaoyue was still ignorant about love, she saw the love in Ling Han's eyes. That kind of look of disdain on the surface, but in fact, there was a doting look in his eyes. She envied that for a long time.
But later, how did it become like this?
She looked at Ye Huanyan as if she was having a nightmare. She kept shouting, "Don't go!" Her facial features were twisted together as if she was in pain and struggling in hell.
She did not know when her angelic brother, who used to bathe in the sun, became the soul-reaping emissary of hell. He was cold and heartless, surrounded by scandals, shuttling between all kinds of women all day long, hurting Ye Huanyan badly.
All these years, she was the only witness to Ye Huanyan's pain.
Her original envy gradually turned into a complex feeling every time she saw the two of them.
She still did not understand whether Ling Han loved Ye Huanyan or not. If he loved her, how could he bear to hurt her like this? If he did not love her, why did he not let her go and let her give up and live her own life?
After Ye Huanyan's phone stopped flashing, Ji Xiaoyue's phone began to ring non-stop. It was Ling Han's third call. She did not pick it up. She stared angrily at the phone screen. I'll let you, a scumbag, worry and reflect on yourself.
Where were you when your girlfriend was hurt like this? Now you know how to look for her, but you don't pick up the phone.
