Fake Sisterhood

After reassuring Yang Yuxin in the room, Su Chen felt at ease. He told her to wait at home since Yang Danxuan was not home. In fact, Su Chen was quite depressed. Initially, he was unwilling to date Yang Yuxin, as it had nothing to do with the plot. But now, he wanted to leave with her quickly, and the reason was simple: Su Xian'er. She was terrifying. When Su Chen saw her, he felt guilty, as if he was truly cheating. In such situations, it's best to leave immediately. Moreover, Su Chen also wanted to go out and have fun, as acting in the plot was tiring. Now was the perfect time for a break. The male lead, Qin Yu, was probably still in bed, and who knows when Fang Yufan, who also has luck, will show up. Maybe he hasn't even descended the mountain.

Taking this opportunity to rest seemed like a great idea. Truly experience the perks of being a spoiled young master.Su Chen opened the room door and cautiously looked around. He then ran to the garage and saw that Su Xian'er had indeed left, letting out a sigh of relief. To be honest, he felt guilty. Su Xian'er's behavior today was strange. Although Su Chen couldn't pinpoint what was weird, something was off. He felt guilty again. Su Xian'er's actions seemed to say, „Su Chen, stop pretending, I know what you're up to." But now that she was gone, Su Chen felt relieved.

He had promised to treat Su Xian'er well, but now, in just a few days, he was going on a date with Yang Yuxin. This made him seem like a jerk. Indeed, Su Chen admitted that his behavior was unethical. But he thought such words were just for show.„Besides, I'm not avoiding you on purpose," he thought. „I'm genuinely avoiding you to prevent breaking your heart."

Su Chen was on high alert, especially since the recent calmness from Su Xian'er had been comfortable. He had been living the good life, and if Su Xian'er returned to her previous mischievous self, Su Chen didn't think he could handle it. Even though Su Xian'er was gone, Su Chen was still uneasy, as if she was an omnipresent demon.

He was very cautious all the way, fearing Su Xian'er might suddenly appear and capture him. Only when he arrived at Yang Yuxin's doorstep did he feel relieved.„I might have overthought it," he mused. „Even though what I'm doing isn't great, it's not cheating. I need to be more confident."With that, Su Chen floated to Yang Yuxin's door. 

[Yang Yuxin should be ready by now. But we might be short on time. At least Su Xian'er hasn't discovered us, which is a silver lining. Flight issues can be easily solved. But what if Su Xian'er can't find me? I'll make up an excuse for her, say I went on a business trip. I need to instruct the company to lie with me; there's no way she can find out. No matter the reason, she must not know before I leave. Even if she finds out later, it won't matter. I'll return later, turning her anger into longing. Once I'm back, she should have calmed down. Hahaha, it's perfect.]

Su Chen knocked energetically, „Yang Yuxin, open the door for me, let me in!"All he had to do was pick up Yang Yuxin, and everything would conclude perfectly. The door clicked open. However, when Su Chen tried to enter, he froze. The smile on his face stiffened.„Why are you here?"Su Xian'er's eyes flashed with anger. She had clearly heard Su Chen's earlier thoughts.Thinking about tricking her with the whole company's staff? Good one, Su Chen, you scumbag.

However, on the surface, Su Xian'er responded innocently to Su Chen's questions, „I heard you mention something about issues at the company. Given that Yang Yuxin is currently with your company, I thought I'd ask her about it." This explanation seemed reasonable. Su Chen felt something was off but couldn't pinpoint it for a moment. Meanwhile, Su Xian'er was desperately trying to suppress her inner rage. She was seething with anger inside.

„Stinky Su Chen, disgusting brother, rotten man! You planned to deceive me, now go on, let's see what you have to say. Were you startled by my appearance? Let's see if you dare to upset me again. My arrival must have disrupted your plans, I wonder what skills that little vixen, Yang Yuxin, has now."A hint of resentment flashed in Su Xian'er's eyes. But Su Chen didn't notice. He was lost in his thoughts. 

[What's happening? Why is Su Xian'er here?] 

[Her earlier explanation made sense, but it's strangely unsettling.]

[Maybe I should just leave!] 

[With Su Xian'er here, this place is a battlefield.]

Wait. Su Chen suddenly realized something crucial. Where did Yang Yuxin go? He then glanced at Su Xian'er again. With her capabilities, she wouldn't have… No, she would at most be suspicious, without evidence. „By the way, brother, why were you looking for Yang Yuxin? It's related to the company, right?"

Su Xian'er continued to feign innocence. Su Chen was stumped. „Yes, I initially didn't want to come, but mom insisted. I had no choice." Su Chen tried to blame Chen Qing. But this wasn't just passing the blame. It was the truth. It didn't have much to do with him. He wanted to set the stage in case Su Xian'er questioned him later. After all, there's a high chance he might get caught. Su Chen then asked the most pressing question, „Where did Yang Yuxin go? I haven't seen her."

[Did Su Xian'er receive some message?] 

[Could it be that mom tricked me? She wanted me to take Yang Yuxin out and then informed Su Xian'er, forcing me to make a choice?] 

A terrifying conspiracy theory suddenly crossed Su Chen's mind. „There's no need for that. The issues at the company are minor. Just tell me, and I can help solve them. No need to find Yang Yuxin." Su Xian'er gave him a look, a humph in her heart. In reality, she didn't have any ill intentions towards Yang Yuxin. She wouldn't harm her. She was just unhappy.

How dare Su Chen go out alone with Yang Yuxin? She hasn't even gone out alone with him! Thus, Su Xian'er's mood was apparent. „Yang Yuxin is sleeping inside, do you want to go in and see?" A visibly irritated Su Xian'er said to Su Chen. Naturally, Su Chen, feeling uneasy, went in. The villa was silent, with suitcases in the living room. Su Chen didn't mention it, but just a glance, and he could feel their massive weight. Clearly, Yang Yuxin was fully prepared.

However, not seeing her made Su Chen anxious. He hoped Su Xian'er hadn't harmed her.Thinking about it, Su Chen hurriedly ran to Yang Yuxin's bedroom. Pushing open the door, he heard soft whimpers. Inside, Yang Yuxin was tied up like a dumpling, and something had been stuffed into her mouth, preventing her from speaking. Clearly, this was the handiwork of Su Xian'er. 

Su Chen could tell that Yang Yuxin was powerful in this life, but against Su Xian'er, she didn't stand a chance. Su Chen suddenly felt that his decision to hide the matter about Su Xian'er was absolutely correct.However, seeing Yang Yuxin unharmed, Su Chen sighed in relief, but he also found the situation somewhat amusing. Given Yang Yuxin's already striking figure, being tied up this way accentuated her best features. With her mouth gagged and emitting mournful noises, Su Chen found the situation oddly pleasing. 

Regardless, he promptly removed the gag from her mouth. He took a closer look, while Yang Yuxin greedily took in a deep breath. She then fumed, „I'll never let that damn woman Su Xian'er get away with this!" Su Chen was both surprised and impressed by Yang Yuxin's courage. She dared to declare war on Su Xian'er, and all Su Chen could do was silently cheer her on.At this point, Yang Yuxin realized the tension between her and Su Xian'er. She quickly shifted the conversation, „Su Chen, after what your sister did to me, aren't you going to say something?"

Knowing she was no match for Su Xian'er, she hoped Su Chen would confront her. Su Chen, evading the confrontation, said, „Let me untie you first; we can discuss everything else later." He then hurriedly untied Yang Yuxin. Once free, she complained to Su Chen, „Your sister did this to me; you have to help me get revenge!"Just then, Su Xian'er walked in, her eyes filled with disdain, and retorted, „If you're not skilled enough, keep quiet!" Yang Yuxin shot back, „You ambushed me!" 

Su Xian'er challenged, „If you have a problem, let's settle it with a fight." Hearing this, Yang Yuxin fell silent. She wasn't foolish. She knew she was no match for Su Xian'er and didn't want to be beaten up. She turned to Su Chen, „Help me." Seeing Yang Yuxin acting so coquettishly, Su Chen felt torn and uncertain. This was a conflict between Yang Yuxin and Su Xian'er; why was he involved? Both women were so domineering. Su Chen believed the best decision was to avoid the situation.„Um, my stomach hurts a bit, I'll be leaving," he said. Without waiting for a response, Su Chen left the room. 

[Let them fight, no one's going to die anyway. Besides, it's quite entertaining watching women fight.] 

Su Chen decided to stay away from the trouble. However, after some time, Su Chen found the room surprisingly calm, with no signs of a struggle. He was utterly confused. „What the heck happened?" he wondered. „Did they kill each other?"„It shouldn't be that bad, right?" At this moment, Su Chen wore a puzzled expression. A sudden rush of anxiety consumed him, fearing that something had gone terribly wrong, and he quickly made his way back to his room. 

Yet, just as he entered, Su Chen witnessed an extremely bizarre scene. Yang Yuxin was holding Su Xian'er's hand with a smile on her face, saying, „Let's talk, we can really be friends." „I suddenly feel a great connection between us!" Su Xian'er replied somewhat regretfully, „I'm sorry for how I treated you earlier."

Yang Yuxin responded, „It's all in the past; these are small matters." Then, turning to Su Chen, she asked, „I'm planning to travel with Su Chen; would you like to come?" Su Xian'er smiled, „Of course. But I'm afraid someone might object." „Why would anyone object?" Yang Yuxin glanced at Su Chen and continued, „No worries. We'll book a bigger room and squeeze in; no need to consider anyone's feelings."

Su Chen, standing aside and listening to their conversation, was utterly baffled. 

[What's going on? Just a moment ago, they seemed like sworn enemies, but now they appear to be close friends.] 

[This is such a drastic change.] 

[Wow, that came out of nowhere!] 

[What should I do now?] 

[Now, I feel like the awkward one.] 

[Oh well, it doesn't matter. If Su Xian'er wants to go, then let her.]

Su Chen never intended to stop Su Xian'er from joining them. He was just worried that the two would quarrel. But now, seeing them bond like best friends, there seemed no reason to object. Yang Yuxin wasn't overly concerned either. She realized that Su Xian'er could hear Su Chen's inner thoughts, meaning she lost her biggest advantage in front of Su Xian'er. In that instant, Yang Yuxin made a decision to form an alliance with Su Xian'er, especially given her discontent with Zhang Li, who often mocked her. Under such circumstances, finding a new ally in Su Xian'er made perfect sense.

The same thought occurred to Su Xian'er. She wasn't naive. She could see that Su Chen had feelings for Yang Yuxin and that even Chen Qing liked Yang Yuxin, giving her a significant advantage. Picking a fight with Yang Yuxin wasn't a wise choice for Su Xian'er. Collaboration was the key, albeit temporarily. Observing the two, Su Chen held his face in his hand, exuding frustration.Seeing Su Chen's silence, Su Xian'er grew anxious. „Brother, I want to go too. Can you please agree?" She said, her face turning red as she stared at Su Chen but showing no signs of fear. „I don't care. I want to go and bond." On the other hand, Yang Yuxin thought carefully and felt that having Su Xian'er accompany them was a good idea. 

She believed Su Xian'er could assist her in areas she was unfamiliar with, given Su Xian'er's experience. Yang Yuxin, who was quite nervous, quickly said, „I agree. Xian'er must come. How can we leave her at home? Imagine if you were to go out with Su Xian'er and not include me; I'd feel left out."Su Chen was taken aback. These two women were forming a strong alliance. If Yang Yuxin and Su Xian'er truly became close, the thought scared him. He might agree to their plan, but he would have to disrupt the budding friendship between Yang Yuxin and Su Xian'er. Su Chen prepared himself to counteract their moves.
