Chapter 242 is broken
When Yun Yun returned home that evening, Yun Zhi was already asleep. He stood by his sister's bedside, looking at her sleeping peacefully, and his eyes softened.
Yun Yun looked helpless and gently touched her sister's brow.
A sigh came from the darkness.
Meanwhile, Cheng Shuyan, fast asleep, was caught in a vivid nightmare. He dreamt that he was always the older brother, standing behind Yunzhi, watching helplessly as Yunzhi married Ye Chengyan and had a son.
In the dream, after Yunzhi got married, although he had deliberately forced himself not to appear in front of Yunzhi, he still couldn't help but pay attention to her movements.
In his dream, he saw Yunzhi compromise time and time again for Ye Chengyan, being wronged by Yu Baisu and hurt by the two of them. His heart ached so much that he felt like he was suffocating. He wanted to rush up and protect her behind him, but Cheng Shuyan in the dream, even if he used all his strength, could not break through the dimensional barrier in front of him. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as Yunzhi was tortured to the point of being unrecognizable.
"No! No, Zhizhi!" Cheng Shuyan woke up with a start, sitting up in bed. He was hunched over, his hands gripping the blanket tightly. His hair was soaked with cold sweat and stuck to his scalp. He was breathing heavily, his eyes glazed over, as if he had not yet recovered from that vivid dream.
Late at night, Cheng Shuyan roughly rubbed his face with both hands, barely waking up a little. He turned his head to look at the time; it was two in the morning. That dream was too terrifying, even more terrifying than the dream of dying at the scene of the car accident and explosion. This dream was also too real, so real that it was as if all of this had actually happened.
Cheng Shuyan stood up and, like a ghost, walked into the study in his pajamas. He opened the bottom of the safe and pulled out two pieces of paper. They were share certificates of the Ye Group. He only remembered that these were shares given to him by his friend in exchange for asking him to take care of Tongtong's grave. But he couldn't remember what his friend looked like or what his name was.
Cheng Shuyan sat at his desk for a long time, pressing his temple hard with one hand. The old suspicion once again weighed on his mind, and he wondered once more if he had lost his memory before.
Cheng Shuyan sat quietly like that until dawn.
The next day at the Ji family's house.
Ji Ziyang woke up early in the morning with a terrible headache, feeling like her head was about to explode. She pressed her brow with one hand, sat up halfway, her mind still blank and dazed. Just then, she heard a soft voice in her ear, "You're awake?"
Ji Ziyang froze, and when she turned her head, she saw Ji Chen standing by her bedside like a vengeful ghost, which almost made her heart stop.
"Oh my god! Ji Chen?" Ji Ziyang rubbed her eyes and exclaimed in surprise.
Ji Chen pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Ji Ziyang. He gritted his teeth, took a glass of warm water from the side, and handed it to Ji Ziyang, almost gritting his teeth as he said, "Big sister, do you remember what you did last night?"
As Ji Ziyang handed over the warm water, she asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Her memory only went up to the part where she drank with Yunzhi. As for the rest of her memories, her mind was blank. She didn't even remember how she got back last night. Yunzhi must have brought her back. She only vaguely remembered that Yunzhi smelled very nice last night, that she felt very safe, and that she felt very comfortable to touch... and so on.
She's not a pervert, so why would she think Yunzhi's body is so nice to touch?
Ji Ziyang remained strangely silent for two seconds.
"Big sister, Yunyun brought you back last night."
"Yun Yun? Who is that?" Ji Ziyang took a sip of water, preparing to rinse her mouth. Ji Chen, sitting opposite her, stared at her for a full five minutes, and when he was sure that his older sister wasn't faking it and might genuinely not remember, he felt somewhat helpless.
"Yun Yun is the eldest son of the Yun family conglomerate overseas, and Yun Zhi's older brother. Last night, you clung to him like an octopus, insisting that he accompany you. Young Master Yun had no choice but to send you back. When Young Master Yun left, you even blew him a kiss and told him to wash up and wait for you."
The resentment in Ji Chen's voice almost materialized.
Ji Ziyang froze, then spat out a mouthful of water, spraying Ji Chen all over. Water droplets clung to Ji Chen's hair and clothes. He looked up at his older sister, took a deep breath, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, stood up and rushed into his room.
By the time Ji Ziyang realized what was happening, her third brother was already gone.
Ji Ziyang stretched out her hand, trying to call her third brother back, "No, third brother, explain yourself! What Young Master Yun? What's going on? When did Young Master Yun come back? How could I do something like harassing someone when I'm drunk? Ji Chen!"
Her voice echoed through the villa.
When Ji Chen returned after taking a shower and changing his clothes, he saw his older sister sitting on the bed with a blank look in her eyes, muttering something under her breath. He leaned over to listen and vaguely heard the words "what" and "how could it be?"
"Miss."
"Ji Chen, what's going on with Yun Yun? How could I possibly flirt with another man like a hooligan?" Ji Ziyang snapped out of her daze upon hearing Ji Chen's voice and looked up, asking impatiently.
Ji Chen recalled his older sister's behavior last night and nodded vigorously.
Ji Ziyang was stunned, not understanding Ji Chen's meaning, "You... what are you nodding for?"
Ji Chen looked at Ji Ziyang with a serious expression and said.
"Big sister, you were a complete hooligan in front of Young Master Yun last night. I could see the word 'speechless' on Young Master Yun's cold face. If it weren't for the Ji surname protecting you, I felt that Young Master Yun would have attacked you."
Ji Ziyang loosened and tightened her grip on the blanket, finally closing her eyes and silently repeating in her heart, "This is my younger brother." When she opened her eyes again, she felt much calmer. "I don't even want a man who can lay a hand on a woman."
Sensing the danger emanating from his eldest sister, Ji Chen shrank back and muttered under his breath, "You were really keen on him last night, practically wanting to become one with Young Master Yun."
Although he was muttering to himself, Ji Ziyang heard him clearly.
Ji Ziyang narrowed her eyes, and Ji Chen immediately lowered his head and remained silent.
Wait, Yunzhi's brother?
Ji Ziyang's eyes lit up as she thought of the man she had fallen in love with at first sight. Yunzhi said that the man wasn't her man, so it was very likely her brother!
Thinking of this, Ji Ziyang slapped Ji Chen's thigh hard, making Ji Chen gasp in pain. He rubbed his stinging thigh with one hand, his face contorted as he looked at his older sister, who seemed to have just realized what was happening. "Big sister, why did you hit me?"
"Isn't that young master Yun handsome and beautiful, with fox-like eyes and a red beauty mark under his left eye?"
