Lifelong siblings

Without waiting for Yi Xiu Jie to reply, Zhang Hao Tian continued to speak, "Whether or not my relationship with Xiao Er can be restored depends on you. If you marry Xiao Er, and she moved back, I would have the chance to compensate her. Rest assured, I have always treated you like my own son, and my family property will definitely be filled with yours and Xiao Er's." Zhang Hao Tian even baited her, wanting to use her family's property to hook Yi Xiu Jie.
He already had someone in his heart, and that person was Ye Qing. Even if he did not fall in love with Ye Qing, he would not do it with her; in his heart, Zhang Xiao was his little sister. He believed that Zhang Xiao also saw him as a big brother. If Zhang Xiao knew that her father wanted her to marry him, Zhang Xiao would definitely be angry, and she might even increase the distance between them.
He spent a long time to make Zhang Xiao, his little sister, open his heart and accept him as a brother. He did not want to lose Zhang Xiao.
Zhang Hao Tian continued: "I mentioned something to your mother, but your mother doesn't agree. As long as you agree, I'll go convince your mother."
"Uncle." Yi Xiu Jie waited until Zhang Hao Tian stopped talking before he shouted sternly, "I see Xiao Er as only a little sister, and not a little girl. I believe that Xiao Er is the same. She only thinks of me as his brother. We've been siblings our whole lives! Also, I already have someone else in my heart, and am unable to pretend to be other women, even if that woman is Xiao Er."
Zhang Hao Tian looked at Yi Xiu Jie in astonishment, as if he did not believe what Yi Xiu Jie had said.
He thought that the reason Yi Xiu Jie was so good to Zhang Xiao was because Yi Xiu Jie liked him.
"Xiujie, you, you have someone you like?" Zhang Hao Tian didn't feel joy, only disappointment. If one were to talk about the young talents of the T City, other than Mu Chen and Ning Zhi Yuan, the only thing he admired was his own stepson.
Who would have thought that Yi Xiu Jie's heart actually had someone else.
Yi Xiu Jie nodded, "Yes, I already have someone I like. I fell in love with her a long time ago, just that I haven't confessed to her yet. Uncle, I hope you don't make too many mistakes in your relationship with Xiao Er, and even more so don't bring up this matter to Xiao Er. It would affect the relationship between us siblings and would also affect the relationship between her and my beloved."
Although he didn't confess to Ye Qing, she also greatly disliked him, and blamed him for not having much to say. However, he had already decided that Ye Qing was the only woman in his life.
Zhang Xiao told him that if she really loved Ye Qing, she had to confess to him. How could she let Ye Qing know that he loved her? As for his silence, he could not change it even if he wanted to.
He felt that as long as he put in effort, there would be a day when Ye Qing would jump into the love net he made for her.
Zhang Hao Tian was a little resentful. After a while, he smiled coyly and asked: "The girl you love, what family's daughter is she? Bring it back for me and your mother to see."
When he mentioned Ye Qing, Yi Xiu Jie's expression softened a little. Zhang Hao Tian, who was an experienced person, caught Yi Xiu Jie's expression and understood that everything Yi Xiu Jie said was true. Yi Xiu Jie did not love Zhang Xiao, but simply treated him as a little sister. For a man as cold as Yi Xiu Jie, if there was a woman who could make his expression soften, it meant that he loved that woman very much.
"It's not time yet."
Yi Xiu Jie said in a low voice.
He hadn't even taken down Ye Qing yet.
He remembered everything his mother had told him. She knew that his mother would definitely care about her family, and Ye Qing was only an orphan. Although she had partnered with Zhang Xiao to start a business, they had only started it together, and had not made it to the top. He was worried that his mother would stop him from getting along with Ye Qing after knowing her background.
Therefore, before he conquered Ye Qing, he couldn't reveal Ye Qing, lest Ye Qing resist him even more. If the two of them truly fell in love, even if there was a mountain of blades and a sea of flames ahead, as long as they charged in side by side, they would be able to pass through. It was better than going through the trial alone and being afraid that he would be alone when he reached the end.
"Do you really not love Xiao Er?" Zhang Hao Tian did not give up and asked again.
Yi Xiu Jie nodded, "Uncle, I only think of Xiao Er as my sister."
Seeing his seriousness, Zhang Hao Tian knew that Yi Xiu Jie was not one to lie, and could only sigh: "It's fine now, go out and busy yourself."
Yi Xiu Jie stood up, but he still couldn't help but say to Zhang Hao Tian: "Uncle, if you really want to fix things with Xiao Er, I hope that uncle does not interfere with Xiao Er's matters. Don't listen to my mother, what you see sometimes might not be true."
Zhang Hao Tian frowned, he did not like Yi Xiu Jie saying that Ling Hong Yu was wrong in front of him, "Xiujie, Hongyu is your mother by blood, don't you know what kind of person your own mother is? Others might not understand your mother, but you can't do that. It will make your mother very sad."
Yi Xiu Jie's face darkened, he knew that as long as he talked about his mother, Zhang Hao Tian would always be one-sided.
"Uncle, I'm going out to do something."
Yi Xiu Jie did not continue, he nodded towards Zhang Hao Tian and turned to leave.
After Yi Xiu Jie left, Zhang Hao Tian immediately took out his phone and called Zhang Yu. At this time, Zhang Yu was still at the Dream Zhou Gong. He and his brother Zhang Ming only woke up at night, and slept during the day.
When he suddenly received a call from his father, Zhang Yu asked in a daze, "Dad, what orders do you have?
"What are you doing?" Zhang Hao Tian asked snappily, but his tone was not strict. "Dad, aren't you asking the obvious? You still don't know what kind of virtue your son has."
Zhang Yu smiled mischievously, making Zhang Hao Tian feel like he couldn't be bothered to continue with his nonsense. He immediately cut straight to the point: "Zhang Yu, you and Zhang Ming will be meeting me at the company right now, I'll give you an hour. If I don't see you in an hour, I'll freeze your bank cards."
As soon as he heard that the bank card would be frozen, Zhang Yu lost all sleepiness and jumped up from the bed, yelling ingratiatingly, "Dad, don't, if there's anything we can discuss, don't worry. I'll go with Zhang Ming to the company to find you now, I promise to be there within an hour."
"See you in an hour."
Zhang Hao Tian smiled lightly, obviously doting on him.
After hanging up, determination appeared in Zhang Hao Tian's eyes.
In any case, he would force his daughter back into the house first.
Zhang Hao Tian believed that as long as Zhang Xiao stayed outside, she would definitely return home. When Zhang Xiao returned home, she lived right under his nose, and he believed that with her wrist, she would be able to control her daughter. With Zhang Xiao's innate condition, he believed that she could help Zhang Xiao find a good family. In any case, he would not let Zhang Xiao and Mu Chen have any feelings for each other!
