Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 890

Chapter 890: Chapter 889: I Agree

Of course, when she decided to study abroad, it was because she understood Brother Tingshen’s character. He was different from those debauched and frivolous wealthy young men. He was inherently cold and indifferent, with an elegant and noble demeanor, exuding an unattainable aura. Even though countless socialites and heiresses in the Imperial Capital were infatuated with him, she had never seen him glance at anyone.

All his talent and energy were devoted to his career. In just a few short years, he built a brilliant and powerful BHS empire.

He was the most outstanding and noble person she had ever met, like an unrivaled idol. Although she was abroad, she silently followed every piece of news about him. Even though his career was already so successful, she had never heard any scandals about him.

Brother Tingshen was so exceptional that an ordinary girl could hardly dream of being with him.

Now that she finally returned with her studies completed, even if she couldn’t stand shoulder to shoulder with him, she was at least qualified to get closer to him, right?

The next day, a ray of morning light filtered through the silk curtains, casting on the delicate, sleeping woman in bed. Her eyelashes fluttered; she turned over and rubbed her aching temples.

Her head hurt, her throat was dry, she swore she’d never drink again...

She groggily got up and staggered towards the door, only to hear a gentle voice like jade from behind, "You’re awake?"

Ye Xian turned around and saw the man rising slowly from a nearby tatami mat, "Brother? What are you doing here?"

"You drank too much last night. I came to take care of you."

"Uh... I didn’t go wild, did I?"

Ye Juncheng recalled last night’s events, his brows slightly lowered, and a slight smile appeared, "No, you didn’t. Go freshen up. Aunt Tao made sweet porridge for you. It’ll be here soon."

"...Okay."

Ye Xian nodded sluggishly and entered the washroom. Why did it feel like her brother’s expression... was a bit subtle?

She definitely went wild; there’s no way she didn’t this time, especially after drinking so much. Despite the door being locked, her brother still got in. She wasn’t sure if she said something she shouldn’t have...

When she came out of the washroom, Ye Juncheng had already laid out a hearty breakfast on the table. Ye Xian wiped her hands and sat down, "It smells so good~"

"Eat more, Aunt Tao said you haven’t eaten since noon yesterday."

"Mmm! Mmm!"

Ye Xian took a spoonful of porridge, her eyes shifting slightly. Aunt Tao probably told Brother about last night, right? Wasn’t he going to ask her anything? And where was her second brother? He was usually the last to leave the house.

"Brother..."

Ye Xian was just about to ask where Ye Shaowen was when Ye Juncheng spoke, "Xianxian, do you like Bo Tingshen?"

Ye Xian almost spat out her porridge.

She looked at him in astonishment. Although it was a question, he sounded very certain, and his expression was very serious, not like he was joking.

She swallowed the porridge slightly and lowered her head, stirring the silver fungus in her bowl with her spoon, "Brother, how did you know?"

"Last night in your dream, you called ’CEO’ 67 times and ’Werewolf’ 54 times."

Ye Xian thought for a moment and nodded, "Mhm." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

She had been amazed by her brother’s appearance, still vivid in her memory.

"That was the happiest day for me in years. Since then, I’ve often seen a bright, energetic you on TV, heard your lively and cheerful voice on the phone, and even at home, faced your vibrant and charming smile every day. I truly feel happy and gratified. It feels like going back to those childhood days when you were so smart and mischievous, always clinging to me and Second Brother, so lovable."

"But during the time you were growing up, it was like you turned into a different person — reclusive, irritable, easily angered, with extreme and insane views on things and people. I rarely saw smiles on your face again. It was as if you were shrouded in a shadow, and no amount of encouragement helped. These years while abroad, all I worried about was you. I even arranged a psychologist for you. But before I even returned home, the stars in my Xianxian’s eyes had come back."

As he spoke, he affectionately patted her head.

"Brother thought it over carefully. Perhaps it’s because the love we gave you was too overwhelming, suffocating you. We protected you by changing your gender, not letting you attend school, or make friends. While your physical safety was ensured, your mental health was neglected. You’re a girl who needs care and your own world. I don’t want anything to bind you anymore, or make you frown for any reason or person. I especially don’t want you to return to the way you were."

Ye Xian was so moved by his words that she almost wept, tears glistening in her eyes, "Brother, you’re so good, but..."

"There’s no ’but.’ If you like Bo Tingshen, then bravely be with him. Neither our family’s protective desire for you nor the Lu Family marriage is something you should bear alone. We’ll face it together."

"Really?"

"Really." Ye Juncheng smiled, "I’ve looked into Bo Tingshen’s family background and personal history; he’s very impressive, a good match for you. But his character needs time to be proven. Though I won’t interfere with your relationship, I’ll always be in the background observing him, ensuring you won’t get hurt."

"Waaaaah... Brother, you’re the best! The best in the world!"

Ye Xian threw herself excitedly into his arms.
