Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 664

Chapter 664: Old Friends

Ye Cheng said humorously, “However, when we were students, I felt rather resentful. It was like we were both born with talent, but he was s.h.i.+ning so brightly. As time pa.s.sed, I grew to like him a lot. In the end, we’re friends but also rivals. Later on, we became slightly estranged due to his relations.h.i.+p with my sister. Nonetheless, our childhood friends.h.i.+p will always be in our hearts.”

Ye Cheng told another one or two stories about how mischievous they were and the trouble they got into when they were young.

Everyone listened with great interest, especially Yin Yi.

It did not escape Ye Cheng’s notice that Yin Yi’s expression was particularly bright when he spoke about Mu Chen.

Finally, Yin Jia asked the question in everyone’s minds. “Why was Cheng Che bullied when he was young? Didn’t he have anyone following him to school?”

Ye Cheng was briefly stunned before realization dawned on him. “Oh, our families were the same and sent all of us to ordinary schools, not private schools. Moreover, it’s impossible and too ostentatious to reveal our ident.i.ties in such a manner. My sister was the only exception because she’s a girl; she was sent to a private school since she was young. Cheng Che, Mu Chen, and I went to ordinary schools. Just like ordinary people, we don’t have chauffeurs or bodyguards accompanying us. The bodyguards would just watch from afar, and they didn’t interfere with our lives. Even when we fought, they didn’t interfere. They only appeared if our personal safety was threatened. That’s how Mu Chen and I became good at fighting as well.”

Ye Cheng looked slightly pleased with himself when he finished speaking.

Guan Ning could not help but ask, “Then was Cheng Che at a disadvantage? After all, he was just adopted by the Mu family.”

Ye Cheng spread his hands and said, “When we were young, Mu Chen always said Cheng Che is his younger brother. At that time, we a.s.sumed Cheng Che was his younger cousin brother. We never thought about digging deeper into the matter. Since Mu Chen said Cheng Che is his younger brother, all of us treated Cheng Che like our younger brother. Moreover, Cheng Che was both sensible and smart. He’s been a straight-A student since he was young. All of us were rather envious of Mu Chen for having such a younger brother.”

Yin Bin and Yin Jia smiled happily upon hearing these words.

Ye Cheng sighed before he said to Yin Jia, “To think the world is so small. As it turns out, Cheng Che is a member of the Yin family and he’s your brother.”

Yin Jia said proudly, “That’s right. He’s my biological brother.”

Ye Cheng said, “No wonder he’s so smart. As it turns out, he’s Uncle Yin’s son.”

Yin Bin was delighted when he heard these words.

Yin Jia looked at Ye Cheng hopefully and asked, “Then, how’s your relations.h.i.+p with Cheng Che now?”

Ye Cheng revealed a slightly bitter expression on his face as he said, “Ever since the incident between my sister and Mu Chen, I’ve had little contact with Mu Chen. Needless to say, the same goes for Cheng Che.”

Yin Jia could not help but feel disappointed.

Upon seeing the disappointment on Yin Jia’s face, Ye Cheng hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?

Yin Jia glanced at Yin Bin meaningfully.

Yin Bin smiled and quickly switched the topic. He said with a wide smile, “I really didn’t expect the world to be so small.”

Since her father has no intention of continuing on that topic, Yin Jia said, “In the future, you have to interact more with Cheng Che.”

Ye Cheng replied with a smile, “Of course. Now that I think about the fights I fought for him when we were young, I think they’re really worth it.”

Yin Jia looked down shyly.

Yin Yi looked at Yin Jia mischievously as she said, “That’s right. Eldest Brother definitely won’t expect that the person who protected him when he was young will become his brother-in-law. Right, Sister?”

Yin Jia’s face turned even redder. She gently hit Yin Yi’s arm and said, “Stop being so mischievous.”

Meanwhile, Guan Tang could see that Yin Jia’s boyfriend was well-liked. Everything was going too smoothly. She clenched her hands, digging her nails into the palm. When she saw the beautiful smile on Yin Jia’s face, jealousy flooded her heart. Moreover, it was infuriating how Yin Jia’s boyfriend, who was not inferior to Yin Jia’s ex-boyfriend, did not even spare an extra glance for her. She almost lost her composure because of this.
