Chapter 687: Chapter 687: Confession

Zhou Yiran turned his head and saw Yue Qingqing laughing for no apparent reason, and immediately tapped her on the head.

"What’s so funny? Come in!"

Yue Qingqing rubbed her head, following her senior brother into the room with an innocent face.

Lu Zhu sensed that the two had something to discuss, "I’ll go get busy then."

She hadn’t forgotten that she was there to work today.

Though there had been some unexpected events, she couldn’t just stand by and watch the excitement after taking the salary.

Zhou Yiran appreciated Lu Zhu’s tact and discretion and instructed the manager, who had been trying hard to be invisible on the side, "Give this lady triple her salary to calm her nerves."

The manager, seeing that President Zhou was not seeking to hold him accountable, immediately agreed, breathing a sigh of relief.

Zhou Yiran closed the door of the resting room, his narrow fox-like eyes narrowing.

"Confess and be lenient, tell me, how many more surprises do I not know about?"

"No, none," Yue Qingqing argued, "Zhou Xitong is talking nonsense."

"So you don’t have several boyfriends?"

"Absolutely not!" Yue Qingqing assured: "What she saw might have been my uncle, as well as my third and junior senior brothers."

They had all come to look for her at school, including the time Gong Qiming took a special trip to visit during a filming break, though he wore a mask and sunglasses. However, he nearly got recognized when he left.

Zhou Xitong might have eventually found out about her junior senior brother’s identity.

Seeing that Yue Qingqing was still resistant, Zhou Yiran huffed, "Jiang Chengren’s son, should be Jiang Jingze, right? What is he to you?"

They were all from the same circle, and Zhou Yiran had seen the other party at some banquet in the past.

His impression of Jiang Jingze was that he was rather good-looking. He had heard that despite a rough childhood, he was calm and composed, not arrogant or impetuous, clearly someone who was set for great things in the future.

But learning that he might be his junior sister’s boyfriend changed Zhou Yiran’s opinion.

Humph, he just looks like a pretty boy, had been unlucky before, don’t drag my junior sister down with you.

The junior sister had already been struck dead by lightning once; she couldn’t repeat the same mistake in this life.

Yue Qingqing stammered without a response for a long time.

Seeing the suspicious blush on her face, Zhou Yiran could guess the truth and immediately spoke with heartfelt pain: "What’s going on? You’re getting into a relationship when you barely know the person!"

Yue Qingqing protested righteously, though lacking confidence, "I know him, I watched him grow up!"

Zhou Yiran grew even angrier, "I’ve heard of child brides, but never heard of anything like this. So, was it you who set your sights on him or the other way around?"

Yue Qingqing’s voice shrank down, "I, I don’t know."

"Then it must be him harboring ulterior motives since he was young, thinking you’re easy to deceive. How could you fall for his tricks?"

Yue Qingqing didn’t dare to retort, silently bearing Zhou Yiran’s reproach.

Zhou Yiran saw her pitiful look and couldn’t bear to scold her anymore.

"Alright, it’s normal for a little fool like you to be deceived. I blame Yan Sinian and Gong Qiming more; how could they have not advised you?"

Yue Qingqing defended, "It’s not related to the two senior brothers; they found me after I already got to know Brother Jiang."

Hearing the words "Brother Jiang," Zhou Yiran’s blood pressure shot up, and the anger he had just suppressed surged back up.

"You!"

"Forget it, give me Yan Sinian and Gong Qiming’s phone numbers. I’ll ask them what exactly is going on."

Yue Qingqing recited two strings of numbers, and Zhou Yiran took a deep breath.

"You go take a walk around first. I’ll call them, and don’t you dare use Spiritual Energy to eavesdrop."

Yue Qingqing replied in a tiny voice and quietly slipped out the door.

She felt if she stayed any longer, her senior brother Zhou might get so angry he’d fall ill.

Although Yue Qingqing didn’t think she had done anything to provoke such fury.

No sooner had Yue Qingqing left than Zhou Yiran immediately called Yan Sinian.

As soon as the call connected, Zhou Yiran couldn’t resist speaking up.

"It’s me, tell me, Yan Sinian, how can you not even keep an eye on a child?"

"Never mind, complaining is useless now. What can we do to get that kid to leave my junior sister alone? Should I write him a check to make him scram?"

Yan Sinian: "..."
