I'm Secretly Married to a Big Shot

Yan Shaoqing was stunned. “Fourth Bro, you…”

Gong Zeli stood up.

He looked down at Mo Yesi. “I apologize to you and Mianmian for what my mom did. Mo Yesi, I don’t want to be enemies with you. Even if our relationship can’t return to how it was in the past, I don’t want us to become enemies.

“So, I won’t take the initiative to be your enemy. But if you insist on targeting the Gong Corporation, I, Gong Zeli, have nothing to fear. Also, as we’re brothers, I’ll give you one last reminder.

“Watch out for the Shen family.”

Mo Yesi looked with narrowed eyes.

Gong Zeli met his gaze and smiled. “Of course, it’s up to you to believe me.”

He ignored everyone else and left the room.

“Zeli…” Yan Shaoqing wanted to chase after him, but Gong Zeli had already left the room.

Lu Rao held him back. “Shaoqing, forget it. Don’t chase after him.”

They were all adults.

They had already said everything they needed to say.

If it was still useless, then there was really no need to do anything.

Yan Shaoqing understood this, too.

Hence, he didn’t chase after Gong Zeli anymore.

This wasn’t what he wanted to see.

He sat back down in disappointment. The thought of the four of them suddenly becoming like this made his heart feel empty.

Why did it become like this?

Would their relationship never return to how it was in the past?

“Shaoqing, don’t bother about this anymore.” Lu Rao patted him on the shoulder and said, “Ah Si and Zeli aren’t children anymore. They know what they’re doing. Zeli just said that there are some things we don’t know. In that case, respect their choice.”

Yan Shaoqing opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.

“Alright, I won’t bother about this anymore.” After a while, he rubbed his forehead. “Take it that I’m being nosy this time.”

…

“Mo Yesi, did I bring you a lot of trouble?”

After leaving the restaurant, Qiao Mianmian looked at the silent man beside her and felt bad.

She knew that a large part of the reason Mo Yesi and Gong Zeli ended up like this was because of her.

Otherwise, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point.

They had been brothers for so many years, but they broke up because of her.

Even if this wasn’t her intention, she didn’t want to see this.

But it did have a lot to do with her.

She felt like… a sinner.

“Don’t think like this.” Mo Yesi looked away from the window and reached out to pull her into his arms. “Who said you brought me a lot of trouble? I only know that meeting you was the luckiest thing I’ve ever experienced.

“If this is trouble, I hope this trouble can follow me for the rest of my life.”

“But I really feel like I’ve caused you a lot of trouble.” Qiao Mianmian pursed her lips. “If it wasn’t for me, your relationship with Gong Zeli wouldn’t have turned out like this. I was the one who caused you to lose your friendship.

“Your relationship can’t go back to how it was before?”
