Lu Boyan and Su Jianan, who are far away in the villa area, are living happily together.
Xiao Yunyun, who was in an apartment in the city center, had just woken up from her sleep.
When she saw the time displayed on the wall clock, she felt surprised and exclaimed, "How can I sleep so well?"
She straightened the quilt, got up, and searched the entire apartment but could not find Su Yunjin. Instead, she saw a note on the coffee table in the living room.
On the note was Su Yunjin’s handwriting:
Yunyun, mom has left beforehand. Breakfast is in the refrigerator. You can warm it up before eating. You can take care of lunch by yourself. Wait for my call in the evening and have dinner with your brother.
Xiao Yunyun opened the refrigerator and found two sandwiches and a glass of milk sealed with plastic wrap.
She took it out and put it in the microwave, taking advantage of the heating period to wash up.
After washing up, changing out of her pajamas, and sitting alone in an empty restaurant with hot sandwiches and milk, Xiao Yunyun realized that she had no appetite at all.
She wasn't hungry, she just felt empty.
It wasn't just her stomach that was empty, it was her whole being that was empty.
It was as if her body had no heart or blood vessels, no soul, and was empty. She was not a human being, but more like a walking corpse.
How can two sandwiches and a glass of milk fill a person's soul?
Xiao Yunyun crammed food into her stomach, silently thinking that she would have the opportunity to experience this feeling in her lifetime.
Life is so unpredictable.
After eating, Xiao Yunyun went back to her room to review, but she didn't turn the pages of her professional book until she received Su Yunjin's call.
"I made an appointment with your brother to have dinner at a restaurant on Chihua Road." Su Yunjin asked, "Should I take a taxi to pick you up?"
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome." Xiao Yunyun subconsciously refused, "I can just take a taxi there myself. See you at the restaurant."
"That's okay." Su Yunjin didn't notice anything unusual about Xiao Yunyun and hung up the phone after saying that.
Xiao Yunyun put down her mobile phone. Almost at the same time, something suddenly blocked her heart. She felt so depressed that she wanted to cry, but her tears could not find an outlet.
Only then did she realize that she was not happy this afternoon.
Xiao Yunyun has been living smoothly for more than 20 years since she came to this world. Even when she was choosing her major, her opinions differed from that of Su Yunjin. In the end, she still studied the major she liked as she wished, and her relationship with Su Yunjin was not the same.
Stiff.
But this time, what stood in front of her was an unsolvable knot.
The relationship between brother and sister is destined by fate.
When choosing a major, she was sure to convince Su Yunjin.
But this time, she knew that she was powerless to change her destiny.
What's even more fatal is that even though she knows it's impossible, she still can't let go of Shen Yuechuan.
She was completely helpless, but could not tell anyone, let alone ask for help.
Not being able to love is not the most painful thing in love.
Ethical laws and regulations do not allow you to love that person, but you just love him alone - this is truly the most painful thing in love.
Xiao Yunyun closed her eyes hard, and when she opened them again, tears were rolling in her red eyes, but she tried her best to hold back, unwilling to let the tears fall.
After thinking about it, she put on light makeup before going out.
If you can't make yourself look in a good mood, at least make yourself look good.
After getting into a taxi, Xiao Yunyun suddenly received a call from Qin Han.
Qin Han was silent on the phone, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a long while, Qin Han's low voice came: "Yunyun, I'm sorry."
Xiao Yunyun smiled: "You forgot, we are not real at all, you don't need to apologize to me."
"..." Qin Han was silent for a moment, then let out a bitter smile, "How dare I forget?"
Qin Han remembered that Xiao Yunyun suddenly came to him half a month ago and asked him if he was willing to do her a favor.
He imagined a magnificent drama about a hero saving a beauty, and said impassionedly: "Of course I will!"
Xiao Yunyun murmured: "Don't be so sure yet, I...I want you to be my 'fake' boyfriend."
If Xiao Yunyun hadn't emphasized the word "fake" emphatically, Qin Han would have almost thought he heard it wrong.
A boyfriend is a boyfriend, the kind of boyfriend you can watch movies with, eat together, and get married with!
What is a "fake boyfriend"?
He gave Xiao Yunyun an incomprehensible look.
Xiao Yunyun was obviously embarrassed and explained with difficulty: "I have something to tell you, but you must keep it secret."
He nodded firmly: "Yes!"
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and was silent for a long time, then said softly: "Shen Yuechuan is my brother."
Next, Xiao Yunyun told him that Su Yunjin had not returned to Australia because she was waiting for a suitable time to announce Shen Yuechuan's life experience.
However, Su Yunjin was concerned about her, not just whether she could accept this fact. They suspected that she liked Shen Yuechuan and were worried that she would not be able to bear the blow after Shen Yuechuan's life experience was made public.
Therefore, Su Yunjin has been delaying.
Qin Han slowly understood something: "So, you want to pretend to be in love with me, so that Aunt Yunjin can safely disclose Shen Yuechuan's life experience?"
Xiao Yunyun nodded: "This is the only method I can think of."
Qin Han looked at Xiao Yunyun and sighed calmly: "You really like Shen Yuechuan."
Xiao Yunyun was surprised, and there was a hint of embarrassment in her eyes.
She likes Shen Yuechuan. It's so obvious that even Qin Han can see it. No wonder Su Yunjin has scruples.
She bit her lip and slowly lowered her head: "Yes, I like him, not between people, but between men and women with admiration... This is the first time I like someone.
Man, it turns out that man is my half-brother - does this sound like a joke?"
At that moment, Qin Han suddenly felt sorry for Xiao Yunyun.
Such a young girl should obviously be held in the palm of someone's hand and loved, but for the sake of her elders, she carefully hid her feelings and pretended to be happy and carefree.
Since Shen Yuechuan can't take good care of her, then it's up to him to take care of her.
Qin Han asked: "What do I need to do if I am your 'fake' boyfriend?"
"There aren't many things." Xiao Yunyun said hurriedly, "It's just that occasionally you need to have dinner with me, watch a movie or something, and we can just do things that couples would do to hide from others."
"You think too simply." Qin Han deliberately frightened Xiao Yunyun, "Couples in love should want to stay together all the time. You just want to do something to hide it from others?"
"I have considered this!" Xiao Yunyun smiled with a sense of accomplishment, "Just say that we are busy! You are busy with work and I am busy with the postgraduate entrance examination. We don't need to stick together all the time!"
Qin Han thought that at the beginning, Xiao Yunyun really couldn't be trapped too tightly. As the saying goes, warm water boils the frog!
He nodded and agreed.
On the same day, Qin Han took Xiao Yunyun to the party, ate and watched movies with her. Without him having to announce it, his "romance" with Xiao Yunyun soon spread in the circle.
However, the follow-up was not as smooth as he imagined.
He thought he could win over Xiao Yunyun step by step and transfer her heart away from Shen Yuechuan bit by bit.
However, Xiao Yunyun was so inexperienced that she was not aware of his feelings at all and only regarded him as a friend.
The most annoying thing is that every time the "date" ends, Xiao Yunyun will say "thank you" to him, and he can't say that he doesn't like it.
The long-term depression accumulated, causing Qin Han to be unable to restrain himself and attack others in the bar.
At that time, he really didn't care whether Xiao Yunyun would be afraid or whether someone would hurt her. He was just angry.
And his anger was all due to uneasiness.
On the surface, Xiao Yunyun is his girlfriend, and a group of friends say he has found a treasure.
Only he himself knows that everything between him and Xiao Yunyun is fake. After Shen Yuechuan's life experience is made public, they may announce their breakup at any time.
He held the good things in his hands and was happy at the same time, but at the same time he clearly realized that those good things were all bubbles and would burst into pieces when touched.
If Shen Yuechuan hadn't come that day, he might actually take action.
But when Shen Yuechuan came, he became even more angry - when something happened, the first thing Xiao Yunyun thought of was Shen Yuechuan.
For young master Qin, this is already a blow.
What he didn't expect was that after returning home, he would hear an even crueler truth from his father.
Therefore, it was not until today that he dared to contact Xiao Yunyun and apologize to her.
"Qin Han." Xiao Yunyun said, "Last night, my mother disclosed Shen Yuechuan's life experience."
Qin Han heard clearly that Xiao Yunyun's voice was full of disappointment.
He couldn't imagine what it would be like for Xiao Yunyun, who was always sunny and energetic, to feel lost.
He couldn't help but ask: "Are you sad?"
Xiao Yunyun's eyes were hot, and tears almost burst out of her eyes.
Fortunately, after studying hard for so many years in medical school, apart from professional knowledge, what she learned best was controlling her emotions.
Xiao Yunyun quickly pushed back the tears: "I used to think that as long as you work hard, nothing is impossible. Now I know that there are some things that you cannot change even if you give your life. I am sad, but... I accept my fate."
Qin Han pondered for a long time. Thinking of his father's words, he still did not tell the truth. He just comforted Xiao Yunyun: "No matter what, you will always have me."
Xiao Yunyun smiled: "Qin Han, thank you. If it weren't for you, this matter wouldn't have been resolved so quickly."
"I don't want this matter to be resolved so quickly at all." Qin Han said jokingly, half seriously, "Shen Yuechuan's matter has been resolved, and our matter... should almost be 'resolved'."
"..."
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
When they were "together", she had discussed with Qin Han that they could announce their breakup after Shen Yuechuan's life experience was made public.
But Qin Han's tone sounded like she would abandon him after using him?
"You don't have to think anything." Qin Han comforted Xiao Yunyun, "I also hope to be free as soon as possible. However, it is not appropriate now. Let's talk about it after a while. Otherwise, it may arouse suspicion."
As soon as Shen Yuechuan's life experience was made public, she broke up with Qin Han, which indeed aroused the suspicion of Su Jianan and Su Yunjin.
Xiao Yunyun decided to listen to Shen Yuechuan: "Then I can only force you to continue to be 'unfree' for a while."
