Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xu Jialu scoffed. “You don’t understand women at all. They like going to bathrooms together, and they can spend a long time there even if they’re just washing their hands. They’ll talk about which hand cream is better and such…”

Bo Qi did not want to talk to Xu Jialju because Xu Jialu wanted to marry Xie Tingxi’s woman. Instead, he asked Mo Shenbai, “Aren’t you going to have a look?”

Mo Shenbai toyed with his wine glass as he glanced at Xu Jialu and said, “No need. She’s busy cleaning up someone else’s mess.”

Bo Qi turned to look at Xu Jialu.

Although Xu Jialu had rather thick skin, he still felt uneasy when the two men stared at him. He uncrossed his legs and asked, “Why are both of you looking at me like that? Is it just because I’m more handsome than both of you?”

Bo Qi snickered. He felt that Xu Jialu must have been undernourished when he was young. That must be the reason why there was something wrong with Xu Jialu’s brain.

Meanwhile, Mo Shenbai shifted his gaze away. He could not be bothered with someone who had a low IQ.

Xu Jialu placed his empty wine glass in front of Mo Shenbai and said, “Hurry up and refill your brother-in-law’s glass.”

Mo Shenbai raised his head and looked at Xu Jialu coldly.

Xu Jialu coughed lightly and said, “Forget it. I’ve always been magnanimous. I won’t bicker with you.”

Then, Xu Jialu poured himself another glass of wine.

Mo Shenbai finished his glass of wine before he said, “You don’t need to interfere in Yun Youwei’s matter.”

Although Mo Shenbai was not too good at handling Yun Youwei, he was not so incompetent to the point where he needed Xu Jialu to sacrifice his marriage.

Xu Jialu sneered before he said mockingly, “Don’t flatter yourself. I’m not doing it because of you. I really like her, and I want to live a good life with her. It has nothing to do with you or Youyou.”

Bo Qi asked, puzzled, “Didn’t you hate women like Yun Youwei the most in the past? You’ve always found them bland and tasteless. Why did you suddenly change your preference?”

“I’ve eaten too many meat dishes so I feel like eating vegetarian dishes,” Xu Jialu said firmly, “In any case, I’ll definitely marry Yun Youwei. Just wait for the wedding. It’s okay if you don’t attend the wedding as long as you give me red packets.”

Mo Shenbai stared at Xu Jialu for a long time with his dark eyes before he finally said, “Do as you wish.”

After Mo Shenbai rose to his feet, Bo Qi asked, “Where are you going?”

Mo Shenbai replied without looking back, “I’m going to look for Youyou.”

Bo Qi: “...”

‘Didn’t you say you’re not going to look for her earlier?’

Bo Qi turned back to look at Xu Jialu and found Xu Jialu drinking without a care in the world. His eyes flashed as he wondered inwardly with a sigh, ‘How come this guy has such a poisonous tongue, but he doesn’t have a brain?’

…

Su Lanxu covered her teary face as she took a deep breath. Then, she said in a voice hoarse from crying, “Youyou, I feel like I’m really going to lose him this time. However, the funny thing is that I’ve never had him to begin with.”

Su Lanxu knew that she was the only one who liked him. It could not be any more one-sided.

Xu Youyou gently stroked Su Lanxu’s back as she said, “No matter what decision you make, I’ll always support you. If you want to find someone else, I’ll ask Mr. Bai to help you find a man who’s a thousand times better than my brother! If you want to try to pursue my brother, I’ll also do my best to help you!”

Naturally, Xu Youyou hoped Su Lanxu would become her sister-in-law. This was especially so when the other party was Yun Youwei. It was not that she despised Yun Youwei for having a child, but it was because Yun Youwei was too scheming.

Su Lanxu took a deep breath to calm down. She wiped her tears away and said with a smile, “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”

After all, Su Lanxu had been in love with Xu Jialu for so many years. Perhaps, giving up would not be as difficult as she imagined.

Xu Youyou hugged Su Lanxu. “Lanlan, no matter what, we’ll always be best friends. I’ll always support you.”

Su Lanxu returned the hug. She was so moved that she felt like crying again. “Youyou, thank you.”

“You’re welcome! If you want to scold my brother, I’ll join in as well!” Xu Youyou said. Although she loved her brother, she loved Su Lanxu who was her best friend as well. Most importantly, she felt like her brother was in the wrong regarding the matter back then. As such, it was only natural for her to side with her best friend. Even her husband had to stand aside, let alone her brother.

At this moment, a light cough rang in the air.

Mo Shenbai, who had been standing at the entrance, could not help but cough softly after waiting for a long time for the two women to stop hugging.

Xu Youyou and Su Lanxu pulled away and looked at him.

An aggrieved expression appeared on Xu Youyou’s face as soon as she saw Mo Shenbai. “Mr. Bai…”

Xu Youyou quickly rose to her feet and hugged him.

Mo Shenbai’s gaze was trained on Xu Youyou from the beginning to the end. He did not even spare a glance at Su Lanxu. He lowered his head to look at the young woman in his arms as he gently held her shoulders and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Xu Youyou shook her head and did not say anything.

“Do you want to go home?”

Xu Youyou hesitated. She turned to look at Su Lanxu, who was still sitting on the stairs.

Su Lanxu stood up. The tears on her face had already dried up, but her eyes were still red. She said tactfully, “Both of you should go home. I’ll call for a cab.”

Although Mo Shenbai did not care about anyone other than Xu Youyou, seeing that Su Lanxu was Xu Youyou’s best friend, he said, “I’ll get the bodyguard to send you back.”

Su Lanxu knew Mo Shenbai was doing this to make Xu Youyou feel at ease so she did not refuse. “Alright. This will save me 100 yuan from having to call for a cab.”

With this, Xu Youyou felt at ease and followed Mo Shenbai back.

…

Xu Youyou was in a bad mood, and she looked listless.

When Mo Shenbai came out of the bathroom after showering, he saw her sitting on the bed with her head lowered. He walked over and gently stroked her head as he asked, “What’s wrong? Are you still unhappy because of Xu Jialu?”

Xu Youyou hugged her knees to her chest as she said with a lowered gaze, “I know that Brother is doing this for me. He doesn’t want Yun Youwei to pester you. He’s afraid that I’ll be sad.”

Mo Shenbai was silent for a moment before he said in a low voice, “Youyou, Xu Jialu is an adult. He must have thought about it carefully before making such a decision. He has his own consideration and motivation.”

“Are you saying that my brother really likes Yun Youwei?” Xu Youyou raised her head and looked at Mo Shenbai.

Mo Shenbai said, “That’s not what I mean. What I’m saying is that he has his reason.”

“His reason is me and our happiness!”

Perhaps, due to Su Lanxu’s words, Xu Youyou was very emotional. She could not help but raise her voice as she said, “My brother would rather sacrifice his marriage than let Yun Youwei interfere in our marriage! Why should our happiness be built upon the happiness of others?”

Mo Shenbai’s eyes darkened, but his expression did not change as he said calmly, “You’re saying… this is my fault. Because of my matter with Yun Youwei, your brother and your best friend are unhappy, and you regret being with me? Is this what you mean?”

“I…” Xu Youyou’s heart trembled when she met his dark gaze. She had just opened her mouth to speak when he suddenly lowered his head to kiss her.
