The Rest Of My Life Is For You
chapter-1317

“I really like my younger brother, but he doesn’t feel the same way toward me. He always felt that I was the only child whom my dad recognized and that I would snatch the inheritance rights of the Zheng Corporation from him as long as I was around.”

Zheng Yan’s mood turned downcast at the mention of Zheng Hao.

She took a sip of fruit juice to hide her emotional behavior. Then, she stretched the corner of her lips and let out a self-mocking smile.

“Actually, I am already used to it. Whenever I take over any major projects, someone in the family would always impede my progress; he would either spread lies and tell others that I had gotten the project because I did slutty things, or he would collude with his toxic friends and speak ill of me in front of the client and influence them into doubting my ability… When I thought about it carefully, I realized that the tricks he used over the past few years were all the same, so I am no longer bothered by them.”

Zheng Yan stared at the fruit juice in front of her as she spoke. All of a sudden, she had a craving for alcohol.

She wondered if the cafe sold it.

“Drinking alcohol in the daytime is harmful to your health. Didn’t you mention earlier that your younger brother no longer has an effect on you? But why do you appear to be so affected at the mention of him? Actually, you should know that continuous forbearance would not be able to solve the problem, right?”

Fan Yu knew what she was thinking and forbade her from calling the waitress over.

Zheng Yan leaned back against the chair lazily and let out an extremely sad smile.

“How could things be settled so easily? We’re talking about my biological younger brother. Do you know that I grew up looking at the older boy who lived next door, and I yearned for an older brother? After I realized that my mom had given birth to me first and was unable to give me an older brother, I started to wish for a younger brother…”

As Zheng Yan spoke of this, her gaze suddenly changed and she revealed a sinister smile.

She leaned over the table and shifted her pretty face closer to Fan Yu.

Then, she lowered her voice and said in a secretive tone.

“Do you know that I had my first love at a very early stage of my life, just like you? No! Mine happened way earlier than yours. When I was very young, I always watched how the older boy next door took care of his younger sister and I developed a secret crush on him soon after. Even though he seemed like an aloof person, he was really nice to his younger sister; just one look at him and I knew that his weakness is his younger sister. At that point in time, I was determined to marry an older brother like him when I grew up so that he could love and pamper me like a kid forever!”

As Zheng Yan spoke, her face sunk again and her expression grew solemn.

She looked at Fan Yu with an aggrieved look and asked, “However, the older brother that I had a crush on suddenly fell sick and died. Do you think I am poisonous?”

Why did the younger brother whom she loved dislike her, and why did the older brother that she loved suddenly die…

Could she be “destined to be all alone,” just like the ancient books said?

“…”

If he told her now that everything was coincidental, would she feel that he had said that merely to console her?

Before Fan Yu could think of how to comfort the heartbroken Zheng Yan, someone suddenly entered the cafe.

He was someone they both knew.

As Mo Yongheng’s upright body strolled into the cafe, the heavy and alienating aura that he exuded lowered the pressure of the entire cafe the very moment he appeared.

Both Fan Yu and Mo Yongheng noticed each other at the same time.

He turned around to say something to the service staff before strolling toward them.

“Young Master Fan, you are surely in a good mood to have specially come over to the cafe opposite the Mo Corporation for coffee.” Mo Yongheng greeted him without sitting down.

Zheng Yan had already turned around just as Fan Yu was about to say something. When she saw that Mo Yongheng was the one who was standing behind her, her eyes widened!

“Why are you here?”
