From Sidekick to Bigshot

Chapter 565: Don’t Meddle with This

Zhai Yunsheng was a very vindictive person.

Back then, Jian Yiling was facing emotional abuse in Shenghua High School. However, Jian Yuncheng, as a person who had the ability to help her, did not appear at all.

This was something that Zhai Yunsheng still remembered.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yuncheng replied in a quiet and reserved voice: “I’m her eldest brother. If someone plans to take advantage of her, I won’t watch by the sidelines.”

In Jian Yuncheng’s mind, it seemed as though Zhai Yunsheng had swindled Jian Yiling. That was the only reason why the two of them were living under the same roof.

However, Jian Yuncheng knew that Zhai Yunsheng wouldn’t take advantage of Jian Yiling.

However, ‘co-renting’ was already a step too much.

“Well, you should know that you can’t do anything to me.”

This was in Beijing. Furthermore, even if they were still in Hengyuan City, Jian Yuncheng could do nothing to him.

Otherwise, based on Jian Yuncheng’s temper, he would not be standing here talking to him.

Jian Yuncheng’s eyes darkened. There was a grave expression on his face. The muscles on his face were also strained and tense.

Zhai Yunsheng was nine years younger than him. However, he could say and do nothing to him. He was not in an advantageous situation.

Zhai Yunsheng continued to speak to Jian Yuncheng: “You only need to understand a single thing. I do not treat Jian Yiling worse than you guys. Thus, you are not qualified to say anything. You do not have the right to tell me to stay away from her. Do you understand?”

Jian Yuncheng could not refute this point.

A slither of pain flashed across Jian Yuncheng’s grave and stern face.

He had lost his sister after all.

He had lost the right to protect her.

“Furthermore, as for how we get along, I don’t think you should meddle with such matters. Yiling and I are both adults. We know what we’re doing.”

Zhai Yunsheng’s attitude was arrogant as he said this. It was as though he saw no point in talking to Jian Yuncheng.

After he finished speaking, Zhai Yunsheng turned around and walked in the direction of the ward.

“Zhai Yunsheng,” Jian Yuncheng called out.

“If one day, I realize that you’re bullying and mistreating Yiling, everyone in the Jian family will not let you go. It does not matter that you’re the Young Master of the Zhai family.”

Zhai Yunsheng smiled after hearing this. His eyes seemed to mock Jian Yuncheng. However, he did not mock Jian Yuncheng any further.

Instead, he returned to the ward.

In the ward, Jian Yiling was still seated with the other three women. The other three women were speaking a lot. Jian Yiling was merely sitting there listening to them.

Zhai Yunsheng leaned against the door frame. He decided against disturbing them.

Instead, he gazed at the little girl. However, this time, other than the usual evil in his eyes, there was also some doting.

In a teaching block of the Beijing Finance and Trade University.

An Yang’s class just ended. He just left the classroom.

“An Yang! Your wife is here to see you!”

An Yang’s roommates called out when they saw Hu Jiaojiao. They began to tease him again.

Ever since An Yang broke his hand, a wife appeared by his side. This girl was in her first year of university.

An Yang always called her ‘Pepper[1]’. And thus, when they ate instant noodles in the dorm rooms at night, they would add pepper. When they did this, they would not forget to shout ‘Pepper’ at An Yang.

Today, Hu Jiaojiao visited again. She brought food for An Yang.

As soon as An Yang saw Hu Jiaojiao, his expression became strange. His eyes began to dodge hers.

When Hu Jiaojiao stood in front of him, he glanced at the packed food she was carrying. Then, he hurriedly turned his face away. He did not look at her directly.

“I told you that you didn’t need to do this. I will ask my mates to get me some food.”

However, An Yang’s mates were on the same wavelength.

“Pepper, Brother Yang is counting on you.”

“Yeah! The rest of us will be going to the cafeteria! We’re going to leave Brother Yang to you!”

Then, An Yang’s mates quickly left the two of them.

They left An Yang in Hu Jiaojiao’s care. Currently, An Yang’s hand was still in a cast.
