Problematic Little Sister Fell In Love With Me - Chapter 507
507 Chapter 508 Apologize and Reconcile
“Okay, when you are going to visit him, let me know.”
I didn’t expect that after the relationship between Min Rou and the Third Lady was exposed, the Liu family would suffer so much damage because of it. But if I could help the Liu family to some extent by simply visiting Liu Xiaosheng, why didn’t Guo Xiang and Xingyu come to me? But after rethinking about it some more, I kind of understood why they didn’t come to me. Who would want to visit a guy who nearly killed himself? Guo Xiang and Xingyu were probably concerned about my feelings.
This was the only reason why I agreed to Zhang Mingjie’s request.
Zhang Mingjie was very excited, and immediately said, “Okay, then how about tomorrow?”
I nodded, and then asked, “Mr. Zhang, did you know about Min Rou’s relationship with the Third Lady?”
Zhang Mingjie was dazed for a second before smiling bitterly. “Not to mention me, even my father doesn’t know that Miss Min has such a relationship with the Third Lady. We didn’t even know when Moon Valley New Energy Limited appeared in Bei Tian City. We only found out about this company after the letter of intent for cooperation was sent to Fengchang by the Third Lady. Originally, we all thought that the Third Lady would directly participate in this cooperation as their parent company. We didn’t expect that she had set up a new company in Bei Tian City years ago… Before, I was curious about how you got to know someone like Miss Min. Now, when I look back and think about it, the answer was actually very obvious. No wonder that arrogant, indifferent, and unapproachable Miss Min is also very respectful to you, Mr. Chu. It turns out that she’s working for the Third Lady…”
Five years ago, the Third Lady lent money to the Long Corporate Group to help them win the bid of developing the Crouching Dragon Mountain Resort. Four years ago, Min Rou came out of nowhere and established the ‘Moon Valley Club’, which helped her build a huge network…
Why did the Third Lady and Min Rou act separately and deliberately conceal their relationship with each other? After thinking about it, there was only one answer. What the Third Lady hid was not her relationship with Min Rou, but her ambition to join the market in Bei Tian City.
On one hand, she pretended to be an outsider, as if she was not interested in competing with other companies at all; this way she could earn the respect of others and create the illusion of being superior. On the other hand, she arranged for Min Rou to lay a solid foundation…
Back then, the investment in Long Corporate Group was just to make a name for herself, annexing it today was just a matter of convenience. Only ‘Moon Valley’ was the foothold she made for herself.
Thinking of this I couldn’t help but be impressed by this Third Lady’s ability. She was too scheming.

“You had a fight with people again?!” Chu Yuan stood with her arms akimbo and looked down at me, who was lying on the sofa, topless.
“No…”
“No? Then what are you doing now?”
“Applying some safflower oil.” I lied without any hesitation, “I caught a cold last night, and my back is sore. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your Elder Sister Xiaoye.”
Dong Xiaoye had been feeling very embarrassed since the moment Chu Yuan opened the door suddenly and saw her riding on top of me to massage my back; so much so that she didn’t dare to say anything, even though she knew that I was lying.
Wang Jie had smashed a chair on my back. Had it not been for me to grit my teeth to endure the pain, I would have collapsed in the police station already.
“Oh?” Dongfang Lianren sneered coldly, “Did you sleep on ice last night or what? Why does your back have so many purple bruises?”
“May Maybe because I fell today. It must have something to do with that.” I panicked at first and replied nervously. But then I suddenly felt strange. I had been screaming in pain just now when Dong Xiaoye was massaging my back. It made Dong Xiaoye and Liusu take turns scolding me angrily for not being manly enough. If my back really had purple bruises, would they really have the heart to scold me? With this thought, I suddenly realised something, but it was too late.
Dongfang said triumphantly, “I lied to you. See? You exposed it yourself. You said just now that you caught a cold while sleeping last night, but now you said that you fell today. Which sentence is true?”
This bratty girl! She’s too cunning! Although this girl had already done the transferring procedures, she still went to school with Chu Yuan today. Probably her classmates had been asking her about what happened to her all day as she was obviously in a bad mood. And it looked like she wanted to take it out on me.
“Make up a better lie next time,” Chu Yuan said with her pretty face as cold as ice. Then she called out to the bathroom, “Elder Sister Liusu, come out, I’ve seen your shoes at the door.”
Liusu walked out of the bathroom with an embarrassed smile, followed by Ziyuan with a similar embarrassed face. Before Dong Xiaoye took over the task of massaging my back, the one who massaged me was Ziyuan. Because her hands reeked of safflower oil, she went to the bathroom to wash her hands while Liusu went to fetch water so she could wipe my back for me.
But when they heard Chu Yuan enter the door, they didn’t come out again. I guessed that Ziyuan probably didn’t know how to face Chu Yuan…
Sure enough, when Chu Yuan saw Ziyuan, her expression also became a little unnatural even though she had already guessed that the other person in the bathroom was Ziyuan.
When their eyes met, Ziyuan lowered her head. Chu Yuan turned her head, pretending to be dissatisfied, and said to me, “If it’s really just a cold, do you need three people to look after you? Don’t they have their own business?”
I sat up, ignoring Chu Yuan’s complaint, and said seriously, “Yuan Yuan.”
Chu Yuan didn’t dare to look me in the eyes, “What? I haven’t finished speaking yet…”
“Yuan Yuan” My voice became deeper and my expression became even more serious.
Chu Yuan became silent, pouting and looking at me for a while. In the end, she reluctantly threw the schoolbag at me, and then walked to Ziyuan.
Seeing her nervous appearance, Chu Yuan also felt guilty, and said in a low voice, “Elder Sister Ziyuan, I’m sorry…”
“Hm?” Ziyuan was stunned. And the reason was that she had never heard the word ‘sorry’ coming from Chu Yuan’s mouth since she was young.
“At that time, I was very naughty, so I tore up the letter you wrote to my elder brother, without considering your feelings and my brother’s feelings at all. Later, I gradually realized that I had made a big mistake, but I dared not admit it and blamed you for everything. It’s unfair to put all the blame on you, so I want to apologize to you…” Chu Yuan apologized.
Chu Yuan was forced to apologize to Ziyuan by me, but when she really said these words, she also showed a relieved expression.
Maybe the bratty girl didn’t realize that these were all her thoughts, and it was just her strong and stubborn personality that did not allow her to admit her mistakes.
“Also, what I did last night was wrong. My elder brother is right. You two grew up together, so you will definitely not hurt him. But since you’ve decided to hide something from him, it means that you must have your own difficulties. I was just very angry that my elder brother was injured by those people. But it’s still not right that I lost my temper without considering your feelings, so Elder Sister Ziyuan, I’m sorry.”
“No not uh…” Ziyuan said in a panic, “I am the one who should apologize to you, Yuan Yuan. I did hide a lot of things from your elder brother… But, I…”
Ziyuan glanced at Liusu beside her, did not dare to continue, and said with a wry smile, “There is no ‘but’ anymore. Maybe, I have already done something to hurt your elder brother…”
No one knew what Ziyuan was referring to except me. Chu Yuan unexpectedly didn’t get to the bottom of it, but said seriously, “But, now we see you didn’t hurt him, so my apology is sincere. However, if one day you really hurt him, then I will never forgive you.”
It’s hard to imagine a 16-year-old girl having such a firm tone and such a serious expression. While I was a little moved, I was also worried about the relationship between these two in the future…
“Yuan Yuan has really grown up. Hee hee, this is great. You two finally solved the misunderstanding and made up with each other. Nan Nan doesn’t have to worry about it anymore. This deserves a celebration. How about we go out to eat tonight and celebrate it together?” The atmosphere became slightly strange again, so Liusu jumped out in time to change the subject. “Sister Xiaoye, what do you think?”
Dong Xiaoye was a little distracted, seemingly thinking of something. “What? Going out to eat, okay…”
“No,” Chu Yuan simply rejected it. She glanced at me and said, “There’s a fool who caught a cold last night. I can see that he’s having trouble moving. So let’s eat at home tonight. Yesterday, I ruined everyone’s dinner, so I will use this opportunity to compensate everyone. Dongfang, let’s go buy some ingredients.”
Dongfang’s eyes have been glancing between me and Dong Xiaoye. This troublemaker seemed to have smelled something again, making me very nervous. Fortunately, she didn’t ask anything, she just simply responded to Chu Yuan, “Okay.”
“Then… would you mind adding one more person?” Liusu suddenly smiled embarrassedly, “Actually, it was my turn to cook dinner and do housework yesterday. But I didn’t go home last night, so my cousin could only eat instant noodles at home and complete the housework that had built up for a week for me. If I let her do it all by herself again, she will definitely get mad at me”
After Shu Tong’s parents and grandma returned home, we never saw each other again, so I didn’t mind inviting her to join our dinner. In addition, she was Chu Yuan and Dongfang’s teacher, so if she joined us, Chu Yuan and Dongfang would also be a little bit more obedient.
I nodded and said, “It’s just an extra bowl and some chopsticks, who would mind?”
