e elder, Dr. Tan instinctively used the polite term "sir" and inquired respectfully."Well, I'm the husband of the woman who suffered burns to her arm, Tang," Tang Yucheng simply stated his identity.Qu...Chapter 1140: Sudden Confession

Then Wen Ping Sheng looked at the surrounding family members, and then asked him, "Why didn't you tell me about this"

If it wasn't for her third brother mentioning it tonight, she wouldn't have known that her eldest brother could come back so quickly. There was his contribution inside.

"It's just a small thing, nothing to talk about. Have your dinner first, we can chat later." Yisheng waved his hand dismissively.

Wen Ping Sheng understood the situation, and because she wasn't used to talking on speakerphone with Yi Sheng in front of her family, she ended the call. She planned to ask him in detail about how he saved her older brother later that night.

Although her mother didn't say anything, she was very pleased with Yisheng's actions. She appreciated how he helped their family without seeking any recognition and his humble demeanor.

She was also a little surprised. Yisheng usually kept a low profile and wasn't flashy at all. She didn't expect him to have such a wide network of contacts. With the eldest son of her family in trouble, Yisheng could actually help.

Grandma Wen couldn't help but sigh with emotion once again: she was right to choose him as her son-in-law, he really didn't disappoint her.

After dinner, the Wen brothers went out drinking, arm in arm.

Wen Ping Sheng rested in the living room for a while, then went outside for a walk to aid digestion.

When she had walked some distance away from the Li family mansion, suddenly someone called out to her. The man's voice felt very familiar to her.

Wen Ping Sheng stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at the source of the sound, and saw a tall and straight figure walking towards him with large strides against the light.

The security in the wealthy area is excellent, not just anyone can enter.

Moreover, the voice sounded familiar to her. Wen Ping Sheng wasn't worried that the other person was bad.

Only when they got closer did Wen Pingsheng see who it was.

"Ji Jing gege, when are you coming back" she asked in surprise.

Half a year hadn't passed, and the man before me was even more mature, taller, and handsome than before. Perhaps it was due to his Western education; he exuded an air of Western aristocratic elegance and gentlemanly demeanor, like a wealthy scion from a distinguished European family.

The Wen family and the Ji family have been neighbors for over twenty years. Ji Jin is the same age as her younger brother, and they were in the same grade when they were studying. After her younger brother graduated from his master's program, he entered the entertainment industry, while Ji Jin went abroad to pursue a doctorate. They usually only see each other during Chinese New Year.

“Just got back to Kyoto.” The man’s smile was warm and elegant, his eyes holding a touch of tenderness and lingering gaze as he looked at Wen Ping Sheng. “Yesterday I saw the news about Brother Qi Jun's accident abroad, so I rushed back, hoping to help in some way. Unexpectedly, today Brother Qi Jun returned safe and sound.”

If it had been before, Wen Ping Sheng might not have noticed anything amiss with the way people looked at him.

But after being with Yisheng... she understood very well what kind of look Ji Jin was giving her at this moment.

In her impression, she and Ji Jin's way of getting along had always been like siblings. She didn't know when Ji Jin started to have those feelings for her.

Wen Ping Sheng lowered her beautiful eyes, avoiding his scorching gaze, and said softly, "My several older brothers went to 'March Peach Blossom' for a drink, saying it was to celebrate my eldest brother's safe return."

"What about you How long are you planning to stay home this time" Li Jin asked her with a hint of probing.

"Still don't know." Wen Pingsheng shook his head lightly.

"What's wrong Had a fight with your boyfriend" His tone was like an older brother caring for his younger sister, asking with a relaxed and light smile.

Wen Ping Sheng subtly furrowed his brows, unwilling to make things awkward. He shook his head and curved a happy smile, saying, "Thank you, Brother Ji Jin, for your concern. However, Yi Sheng and I have a good relationship. This trip back to Beijing is because my older brother had an accident; I'm not sure when we'll go to Bei Si City because yesterday my mother told me that after my older brother returns safely, she wants Yi Sheng to find a time to come to our house and discuss our marriage. We are getting engaged at the end of the year."

Ji Jin's eyes narrowed suddenly, a flicker of pain and struggle passing through them. He gritted his teeth silently, wanting to call out her name, "Pingsheng..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Wen Ping Sheng quickly chimed in, "Oh right, Brother Ji Jin, you and my younger brother are from the same year. My younger brother already has a girlfriend, and I'm also preparing for marriage. What about you When are you planning to get married"

Ji Jin didn't give her a chance to escape. He looked at her deeply with affectionate eyes, his voice low and magnetically gentle, "Ping Sheng, I like you."

"!!!" Wen Ping Sheng.

The sudden confession startled Wen Ping Sheng.

She thought that after she said all that, Ji Jin should have put away those inappropriate thoughts and ideas, but she didn't expect...

Wen Ping Sheng involuntarily took a step back and said, “I, I already have a fiancé. We’re about to get engaged. Please… please don’t say things like that in the future.”

"Ping Sheng, he doesn't deserve you." Ji Jin was consumed by jealousy, his words becoming reckless. "Before he reunited with his parents, his past wasn't honorable. Do you know what he...what he...has done"

Back when he was overseas, he learned from the internet that Wen Ping Sheng was in a relationship, so he went to great lengths to investigate Yi Sheng. Although the information he found wasn't much, every single piece of it was enough to send that man straight to hell.

That man was from a completely different world than them.

In his eyes, Wen Ping Sheng was a sacred and noble swan princess, while Yi Sheng was a toad wearing a swan's skin, ugly inside and out.

That man is totally unworthy of Wen Ping Sheng.

Especially Wen Ping Sheng was the girl he had a crush on since his boyhood until now.

Ji's family background couldn't compare to the Wen family. These years, he had been working hard to become more outstanding, hoping to be worthy of her.

However, halfway through, a toad suddenly jumped out and snatched away his swan princess.

When he said that about Yi Sheng, Wen Ping Sheng was truly angry. Thinking of the good relationship between their families, she suppressed her anger and said, "Ji Jin, please don't speak ill of my fiancé in front of me. I don't want to argue with you; I know what kind of person he is. He has told me about his past experiences. Whether Yi Sheng is worthy of me is not up to you to decide. My family has already accepted Yi Sheng and agreed to our marriage."

After saying that, Wen Pingsheng turned and prepared to leave.

Ji Jin quickly reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her back with force. His voice was strong and domineering, "Ping Sheng, break up with him, I'll marry you."

Wen Ping Sheng chuckled, he never noticed before, this neighbor brother also had such a conceited side. What made him think that after breaking up with Yi Sheng, he would marry him

"Ji Jin, our Wen and Ji families have been neighbors for almost thirty years. I consider you a childhood friend, we grew up together. After so many years, if I had feelings for you, there wouldn't be anything with Yi Sheng. You don't understand such obvious things, do you Even if I break up with Yi Sheng, I won't be with you." Wen Ping Sheng frowned and said coldly., a wave of dizziness overcame him, an irresistible force that left him feeling weak and limp. 。Lu Yin couldn't open his eyes. In a daze, he felt himself being shoved into a car, and immediately after...
