Chapter 388: She Can Go to Any Lengths for Anyone
"I never cared if I had a sister or not." Qiao Yebai’s expression remained indifferent, "At first, I acknowledged her and took care of her with an ulterior motive, but seeing how naive she is, I couldn’t bear to scheme against her anymore. This fool, I’ll leave her to you."
Yan Sijue strode forward and grabbed his collar, his face clouded with anger: "You’re her brother, but you’ve been scheming against her all along?"
Qiao Yebai chuckled lightly and pushed away his hand: "So what? Just because I’m her brother, do I have to be unconditionally good to her?"
Yan Sijue released him, sneering slightly: "Very well. In that case, I will no longer hold back."
Qiao Yebai detected the bloody tone in his voice, his brows twitching slightly, yet he still refused to show weakness: "Suit yourself. However, I still intend to fulfill my responsibility as her brother one last time."
He looked coldly at Yan Sijue: "At this moment, she needs you. Why not accompany her, or are you blaming her?"
"It’s none of your concern!" Yan Sijue replied coldly.
"Because she recklessly came to save me, is that it?" Qiao Yebai wouldn’t allow him any escape!
"I said, it’s none! Of! Your! Concern!" Yan Sijue’s voice was harsh, his tone low and hoarse.
Qiao Yebai quietly watched him for a moment before continuing: "She did it for me only because I’m her brother, she feels guilty towards me."
"Yes, she thinks you’re her brother." Yan Sijue let out a low laugh, "A brother she only acknowledged less than three months ago, not even clear if he’s a friend or foe, yet she can go to such lengths for you! Before, she even took risks for Jason and the others. She can fight desperately for anyone, but she never spares a thought for herself!"
Qiao Yebai clenched his fist, his expression holding a different meaning: "So this is your inner conflict?"
So it turns out that this is what Yan Sijue cares about, but what right does he have to blame Yiliang? Clearly, he himself was the person Yiliang risked her life for, if it wasn’t for that foolish woman, this man would have died long ago!
But it seems he doesn’t know. Indeed, with that woman’s stubbornness, she’s probably afraid this man would feel guilty and remorseful, so she’s simply kept it from him all along.
However, he doesn’t want to remind Yan Sijue, nor will he tell him about this matter. If Yiliang doesn’t say, probably not many people would know in this world, as Jason and the others were kept in the dark, they thought at the time this woman was accidentally injured by the situation.
He intends to let go of this foolish woman, but it doesn’t mean he is willing to let Yan Sijue succeed.
Thinking of this, he smiled faintly: "But that’s just the kind of person she is, what can you do about it? Could you bear to let go?"
Yan Sijue looked at him, his gaze mocking: "Qiao Yebai, I know all your tricks, you excel at manipulating emotions, playing with people’s hearts, but don’t try that on me. I have always known what I truly want."
Indeed, he does have an inner conflict, he despises Mu Yiliang for valuing others more than herself, but such a person only makes it more impossible for him to let go!
He gets angry, he feels pained, all because he cares about this woman, if it weren’t for loving her more than life itself, how could he be so conflicted!
"One last piece of advice, Mr. Qiao." Yan Sijue smiled slightly, "Your method is akin to playing with fire, be careful not to get burned someday."
