"Ah?" Cen Ya panicked for a moment. She forced a smile, "Mom, is my brother really coming in half a month?"
"Of course!" Ni Na said happily, "Your brother always keeps his word and never lies!"
Hearing Ni Na say this, Cen Ya became even more flustered.
She was now very sure that if Cen Xiucheng came, he would be very angry. Even with Ni Na mediating, Cen Xiucheng would never accept Ou Minghan.
When she was alone, Cen Ya annoyedly called Lin Shuangshuang and told her about it.
"What? Your brother is coming?!" Lin Shuangshuang's voice changed.
The next moment, she quickly made up her mind.
This time, she had to run!
To be honest, no matter how much Ou Minghan jumped around or crazily accumulated wealth, she wasn't particularly afraid, because there were no obvious conflicts of interest between them.
But Cen Xiucheng was different. Every cent she had deceived... earned, was the money of the Cen family!
Moreover, Cen Xiucheng looked like trouble. If Cen Xiucheng came, Ou Minghan would still have Cen Ya protecting him and could pull strings, but she would definitely become the chicken to be sacrificed to warn the monkeys!
"Yes..." Cen Ya was very distressed. "Tell me, how can I get him to accept Minghan?"
Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but roll her eyes. Cen Xiucheng wasn't an idiot, so how could he accept a parasite? It would be easier to hit him on the head with a stick and make him lose his memory than to get him to accept Ou Minghan.
Suddenly, Lin Shuangshuang froze. She felt that if she really said that, Cen Ya might even think it was a good idea...
"Shuangshuang, I'm really worried and bothered right now. Tell me, what should I do?" Cen Ya asked again.
"Xiao Ya, don't worry too much," Lin Shuangshuang came back to her senses. "He's your brother, after all. Even if he's angry with you, it's because he cares about you. When the time comes, say a few nice words to him, and I believe he'll understand. If that doesn't work, isn't Auntie there? As long as Auntie is on your side, your brother will definitely compromise."
Cen Ya sighed, "I hope so..."
"Oh, Xiao Ya, I'm going abroad for a while and might not be able to accompany you," Lin Shuangshuang said with some hesitation.
"Ah? Going abroad?" Cen Ya was stunned. "So suddenly?"
Lin Shuangshuang was now her best friend, and when she was about to face Cen Xiucheng, she really hoped Lin Shuangshuang could stay by her side to help her think of ideas, but she didn't expect Lin Shuangshuang to go abroad.
"Yes, my dad wants me to go abroad to investigate an important project. It'll be short for three months and long for half a year," Lin Shuangshuang continued.
"That long?" Cen Ya was very disappointed.
Lin Shuangshuang rolled her eyes. Of course, it had to be long!
If she went abroad for too short a time, and returned right into Cen Xiucheng's crosshairs, what would happen? Since she had decided to run, she would run thoroughly!
Half a year later, the dust should have settled. By then, whether Cen Xiucheng dealt with Ou Minghan or the Cen family was forced to accept him, she wouldn't be affected when she returned to the country! xxs1
"Xiao Ya, don't worry," Lin Shuangshuang comforted her. "Although I can't be with you, you can call me anytime you're worried! I'll always help you brainstorm."
"Okay..." she asked with a dilemma, "Do you think I should tell Minghan about my brother coming?"
Tell him so he would go crazy and embezzle more of the Cen family's money?
Lin Shuangshuang sneered inwardly. Cen Ya, with her love-addled brain, was indeed as clueless as ever.
"Trust your heart, Xiao Ya. They are the people who love you most in this world. No matter what you choose, they won't blame you!" Lin Shuangshuang said some things that Cen Ya liked to hear. Her words sounded like she was saying something, but also like she was saying nothing.
"I understand," Cen Ya said emotionally, and then hung up.
Lin Shuangshuang was speechless. Cen Ya understood something that she didn't.
Never mind, she had to find a way to cash out and leave as soon as possible before Cen Xiucheng arrived!

In the Taoxun Employee Building, Ye Zhi led Zhan Ruojing to the top floor.
She opened the door and showed Zhan Ruojing around her apartment.
After looking around the entire apartment, Zhan Ruojing said with sparkling eyes, "I'm so envious! I want a place like this too! Ye Zhi, hurry up and get me one!"
"Coincidentally, the apartment opposite mine is still vacant. I don't want to give it to anyone else. If you like it, you can move in, and we can be neighbors," Ye Zhi said.
Zhan Ruojing was a little surprised. "Aren't you saving it for Qi Xuan?"
"Why should I save it for him?" Ye Zhi asked, puzzled. "He can just live with me!"
Zhan Ruojing: ...
She was force-fed dog food, and she was unhappy!
Suddenly, she laughed and pulled Ye Zhi, dragging her to the bed. "Come, come, let's lie on the bed together and take a picture."
"Why?" Ye Zhi was confused.
"Let me leave a memento in your new apartment!" Zhan Ruojing said with a smile.
Ye Zhi couldn't refuse her, and finally lay down on the bed with her.
Zhan Ruojing took out her phone and with a click, took the shot.
Then, Zhan Ruojing chuckled "hehehe~", took out her phone, and directly posted it on her Moments with the caption, "Our First Time."
Ye Zhi: ...
It's fine to post on Moments. After all, Zhan Ruojing's photo was quite good, but the caption was a bit strange.
"Give me likes, give me likes!" Zhan Ruojing said coquettishly.
"Alright, alright," Ye Zhi said helplessly and gave her a like.
But as she was liking it, a series of comments appeared under Zhan Ruojing's post.
Feng Jie: 【Beautiful girls cuddling!】
Yao Hongbo: 【I feel like something is a bit off, but I can't quite put my finger on it.】
Zhan Ruofeng: 【Heh, @Qi Xuan, your house has been burgled. My sister is sending you a hat, it looks quite good.】
Jin Kaiyuan: 【What hat? Why send a hat?】
Jin Mian: 【Old man, you're stupid, of course, it's a green hat!】
...
Ye Zhi looked at the refreshed comments and found it a bit amusing. "Is this why you posted on Moments?"
"If you don't like it, I'll delete it," Zhan Ruojing said guiltily.
"No need, keep it," Ye Zhi smiled faintly. "It's a nice photo."
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang.
It was Qi Xuan calling, which Ye Zhi wasn't surprised about.
She pressed the answer button, and Qi Xuan's slightly resentful voice came from the phone, "Ah Zhi, why was it her who shared the bed with you for the first time, and not me?"
"Did you see Ruojing's Moments? Don't listen to her nonsense, what first time?" Before Qi Xuan could relax, Ye Zhi said with a laugh, "It was the second time, actually."
