Chapter 589 - 188: The Girl Behind Him (Part 2)
Yiyi seemed to have mentioned the name, but back then she was still in a cold war with my big brother, so she wasn’t really paying attention and didn’t think much of it.
Of course, the main reason was that she didn’t know Bingtang at all, so even if she heard the name, she wouldn’t have reacted right away.
After all, who could immediately associate it with the heiress of the Ice Era Group?
The gap between our family and Bingtang’s... it’s like heaven and earth!
Like the transformation from a dragon to an insignificant creature!
Speaking of which, according to romance comics, it should be that the girl’s family background is ordinary, while the boy’s family is wealthy and powerful.
Then, the ordinary girl has a beautiful inner self that makes the rich boy fall for her.
Using her charm and appearance to conquer the domineering CEO...
Ultimately, they divorce and split half the assets.
Big brother, why are you doing it the other way around?
Speaking of which, if big brother marries Bingtang, can he get half the assets after a divorce...
Keke couldn’t help but let her mind wander.
After all, there’s so much potential for a super-rich family’s heiress and an ordinary background big brother that her thoughts were racing wildly.
The plot in her mind quickly developed into a divorce property dispute with Teacher Zi Yuan finally turning the tide and bringing big brother back, then using half of Bingtang’s family’s assets to elope and start a happy life, leaving the defeated heiress swinging on an indoor swing in the direction of his departure...
Wait a minute, does this mean Yiyi will also hang herself on the southeast branch...
Can she reach the branch?
"I’ll get you a ride."
Jiang Si looked at Bingtang, who was limping and planning to keep up the act, "You guys wait for me here for a while."
Bingtang obediently nodded.
Keke noticed that this Bingtang girl seemed to really listen to everything my brother said.
"Do you really like my brother?"
Watching Jiang Si go to the roadside to call a car, Bingtang heard Keke’s question and nodded without hesitation, "Of course I like him."
But big brother already has a girlfriend.
This sentence seems a bit meaningless, as Bingtang is indeed aware of Teacher Zi Yuan.
So she had to change the way she asked, "My brother does whatever he wants, he doesn’t care about others, what do you like about him?"
"Well," Bingtang touched her chin, thinking, "Jiang Si’s independence is so cool. I’ve always liked people like Jiang Si who are not bound by the opinions of others since I was young, who boldly ignore the gazes of those around and do what they want to do. It’s really amazing, so I like him a lot."
"Huh?" Keke said blankly, "Does not going to school count?"
"Of course it counts," Bingtang laughed, "After all, Jiang Si doesn’t skip school because he doesn’t want to go, but because he knows he has things more important than school. Besides, even without going to school, it didn’t stop him from taking college entrance exams."
"Simply not going to school naturally isn’t charming or cool. What’s charming is what you choose to do after not going to school—having a goal, having results, and finally successfully completing the college entrance exam, being able to master your own life, control your own future. That’s truly attractive."
Keke was silent, unable to deny it momentarily.
She remembered how her brother and Teacher Zi Yuan handled the Heart Image Remains incident together.
Jiangming City’s Witch Association’s downfall had her brother’s involvement.
Giving up on studies, her brother continuously trained and became stronger, possessing the power he sought now.
He can even fight alongside the magical girls.
This is indeed her brother’s charm.
He knew what he wanted since he was young and has always been striving for it.
Even their parents say that when facing Jiang Si, they feel a bit immature.
Because everyone else is just living ordinary lives, drifting with the current without strong goals or great aspirations.
In countless mundane days, those passions and dreams gradually disappear without a trace.
Ordinary times filter through over and over again, tirelessly sifting out those passions and dreams.
Until everyone becomes gray and empty in the bumps of life.
The purpose of living then becomes merely living.
But Jiang Si, like an obstinate stone, has never changed despite countless screenings.
Compared to the brother she knew when she was little.
What difference is there in Jiang Si now?
His behavior and actions haven’t changed much.
Neighbors and relatives always say that big brother is a child who will never grow up.
Always only caring about his things, cold and childish.
But who decided that being worn down by daily time into accepting mediocrity counts as growing up?
Big brother was more mature than those adults ever since he was young.
Their parents think so, and Keke thinks so too.
Jiang Si hasn’t changed, not because he hasn’t grown, but because he doesn’t need to grow.
He was an adult child from the start, how else could he grow?
So, in Keke’s heart, she always considered big brother to be the real adult.
Even some middle-aged people, in her eyes, are just big babies with only the age.
After all, this world is too gentle. Some kids grow up in a muddled way, pretending to be adults without any punishment.
Rather, there are too many children disguised as adults, making Jiang Si seem out of place.
Actually, Keke always wanted to be like her brother, even when their relationship was strained...
"I admit, my brother has some charm in this regard, you really understand him well."
Keke turned her head aside, as if admitting this was a bit embarrassing for her, "Hmph, but what a pity, you’re too late, no matter how well you understand my brother, my brother is already Teacher Zi Yuan’s!"
