    “Nothing.”


    Under the brim of Lu Yang’s hat, a pair of pitch-ck eyes scrutinized Jiang


    Yanzhou. After a moment of contemtion, she asked, “Aren’t you curious about who the people in the coffee shop are?”


    Jin Yao only read thetter part and relentlessly pursued her to ask who Cheng Zelin was, but Jiang Yanzhou didn’t respond.


    Jiang Yanzhou calmly observed her expression without revealing anything and lightly raised her lips. “1 believe you.”


    Lu Yang slowly rubbed her nails on her phone, speaking calmly. “You pay attention to every emotion of mine, act meticulously without being hasty, and don’t excessively pry.”


    “You’re very rational and have a sense of decency.”


    She looked directly into his eyes, and her lips curved. “They said I’m a fraud, but you still believe me. That’s not like you.”


    Jiang Yanzhou’s mood followed the changes in her gaze, slowly feeling an uncertain and insecure sensation.


    Outside the car, the autumn wind swayed the trees that had been walking alone for years. Inside the car, she had captured his entire heart.


    Jiang Yanzhou didn’t mind. He extended his arm and held her wrist with a grip that was neither light nor heavy but firm enough that she couldn’t break free.


    He had long known about Cheng Zelin’s situation and respected her way of handling it. He wouldn’t interfere excessively, but she was right. He would be emotionally indulgent and act irrationally.


    Even knowing it was a trap, he would enter without hesitation.


    “Why do you say that?” He chuckled softly. “Besides liking you, what other reason could there be?”


    Lu Yang was speechless.


    This man was increasingly unable to conceal his emotions in front of her.


    Jiang Yanzhou exuded a cold and distant aura, but under the light, a gentle and warm glow appeared, somewhat unreal.


    His fingertips pressed against her pulsing pulse, and then he lightly smiled.


    “Tell me about your matters, okay?”


    A shimmer flickered in Lu Yang”s ck pupils, unsure of what he meant.


    After all, having been in contact for so long, she knew that although he hadn’t said much, the various details were enough to prove that he understood her very well.


    “I want to know more about you.” Jiang Yanzhou’s voice was deep and somewhatzy. He leaned slightly against the back of the chair, holding her hand without letting go. “Tell me about you and your brother, alright?”


    She had taken the initiative to teach Cheng Zelin a lesson before him because Cheng Zelin had ndered Lu Mingyu.


    Lu Yang shifted her gaze away from his face, using one hand to change her


    Twitter username as she said:


    “Before my brother entered the entertainment industry, he always amodated me. While other boys yed with slingshots or other toys, he would rack his brains to make meugh.


    When we were in school, he didn’t ck off in any step to provide useful experiences for me during my exams.


    On variety shows, my brother used your good reputation to protect me, without worrying about offending anyone.”


    She said softly, “My brother and I are both naturally afraid of water and have poor swimming skills. It’s because I fell into the water when I was little and nearly drowned that my brother went out of his way to learn how to swim.”


    No one knows how much a ten-year-old boy has sacrificed to suppress his


    inherent fears.


    “To me, my brother is like a wooden cabin shining with firelight in the midst of a blizzard.”


    With a calm and unhurried manner, she changed her Weibo nickname from “No one is more handsome than Jiang Yanzhou” to “My brother is ridiculously handsome.” Lu Yang turned off her phone screen, raised her eyes, and made it clear:


    “Between the two of us, you take 99 steps towards me, and I may not take the final step. But on the path to my brother, no matter how narrow or difficult, I will take 101 steps.”


    She may not walk alongside him, but she will always stand in front of her brother to protect him.


    Jiang Yanzhou stared at Lu Yang without turning away, his eyes growing deeper and more profound. After a long gaze, he said:


    “While you guard Lu Mingyu through thick and thin, I will rush toward you without hesitation, Lu Yang. These two actions never conflict.”


    His words were like the monsoon gaining a soul, as if a divine spirit flew by, bringing vitality to the once arid and lifeless ces it touched.


    Lu Yang was not the kind of person who liked to dwell on internal conflicts. She did what she wanted to do without asking for reasons.


    She also didn’t like repeatedly clinging to a single issue.


    If he had already made a decision, her words would be nothing but a waste of time.


    Lu Yang nced at the coffee stain still on Jiang Yanzhou’s clothes and said casually, “Let’s go, your clothes are still dirty.”


    The house in Binjiang was apensation from Lu Chen to make up for theck of care Lu Yang had received over the years. He specially gave it to her upon her return.


    Apart from asional visits home, Lu Yang mostly stayed there, and Lu Mingyu woulde to apany her whenever he was afraid she would be lonely..
