Chapter 153 - Don’t Be Scared, I’ll Deal With It (3) (2/2)

The word ‘brother’ slowly came out of Jian Yiling’s mouth.

This was the first time Jian Yiling had ever called someone ‘brother’.

The word ‘brother’ hit Jian Yujie like a truck. He couldn’t control his tears any longer.

Once again, he looked at Jian Yiling’s fair face and her bright eyes…

The wall in his heart that he had just built last night had collapsed into ruins…

This was his sister. This was his beloved sister. This was his sister that trusted him…

She was the sister that he wanted to take care of and love for the rest of his life…

Jian Yujie started to laugh. He laughed like a fool.

His laughter broke the haze that had enveloped him.

Tears welled up in his eyes as he laughed.

As the tears rolled down his face, he wiped them away with his arms.

It felt as though he had freed himself from his heavy shackles. “Yiling, I’ll go back and retrieve the video for you immediately. Wait for me. I’ll show everyone the surveillance video!”

Maybe it wasn’t the right choice to betray his mother. Maybe his decision would destroy his family.

However, he had no right to hide the truth.

He didn’t want to hurt his sister nor his mother. However, his mother had done the wrong thing!

His sister had chosen to forgive him. She decided to believe in him. He couldn’t let her down again.

If he showed everyone the video, that would prove his sister’s innocence. Then, he would go and beg his grandfather and the rest of the family to forgive his mother.

He would do whatever was needed of him.

All of that struggle. The pain and suffering. The walls that he had built up had crumbled away under the unreserved trust of his beloved sister.

Jian Yiling grabbed at Jian Yujie once again, “There’s no need. I’ll take care of it.”

Her young and soft voice was full of strength.

Jian Yujie shook his head, “No. It’s not you who did something wrong. It’s us. We should make it up to you. That’s why I should go.”

Jian Yiling replied in a simple and concise way, “I’ll deal with it.”

After she finished speaking to her cousin, Jian Yiling turned around and walked towards the entrance of the school.

After being stunned for a moment, Jian Yujie caught up to Jian Yiling and stopped her.
