The smile that always appeared on her face had long since disappeared, replaced by an empty and almost numb expression, with a pair of eyes staring straight at Zhou Yang.

　　Zhou Yang simply didn’t dare to look her in the eye and cried out, “An An…”

　　Shen Mo pushed Zhou Yang away and said, “An An, you misunderstood. Actually… I received a text message…”

　　His mind was in a mess, and he felt like the protagonist in a bad romance drama, and could only say some unconvincing words to explain himself.

　　Obviously Ji Anan didn’t believe him.

　　”No need to say more.” She took out something like headphones from her ears and said, “I heard everything.”

　　Shen Mo was stunned for a moment, but soon realized what was going on and guessed that someone had installed eavesdropping equipment in the room, maybe even a pinhole camera.

　　And all this must be the masterpiece of Zhou Chu.

　　He went to great lengths to trick Zhou Yang and Shen Mo together, just to let Ji Anan know the truth. For an illegitimate child who had just returned to his ancestral home, life in the Zhou family would probably not be easy, but if he could destroy the marriage between the Zhou and Ji families and make Zhou Yang lose the support of the Ji family, the situation would be very different.

　　Sure enough, Ji Anan then said, “I didn’t believe what your brother said at first, but I didn’t expect… Zhou Yang, is what you just said true?”

　　She took a step forward, stood face to face with Zhou Yang, and asked, “Have you been deceiving my feelings all this time?”

　　Zhou Yang was slow to answer.

　　It was not until Ji Anan asked again that he let out a long sigh, raised his hand to take off his glasses, and gently rubbed his eyebrows. He has always been a person who pays attention to his image, and this time is the same. After putting his glasses back on properly, he looked up at Ji Anan and uttered two words: “That’s right.”

　　Ji Anan’s body shook violently, and the blood color on his face instantly faded away.

　　Zhou Yang clearly saw it, but he continued, “I, Zhou Yang, have never loved Ji Anan.”

　　As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yang was punched in the face.

　　The one who threw the punch was Shen Mo. He swung his right hand, realizing for the first time that hitting someone was so satisfying, or maybe he should have beaten Zhou Yang up a long time ago.

　　He ignored Zhou Yang’s cry of pain, turned around to pull Ji An’an’s hand, and said, “An’an, this matter is very complicated. Let’s go to another place and talk about it slowly.”

　　Ji Anan shook her head, still looking at Zhou Yang with a swollen eye, and asked, “Why did you lie to me?”

　　Zhou Yang sneered, covered his right eye and said: “You should ask your good brother. If he hadn’t threatened, bribed, and used all means, how could I be with you? How could I…separate from Shen Mo?”

　　Ji Anan was shocked, and only then did he look at Shen Mo and ask, “Brother Shen, are you and my brother… also fake?”

　　Shen Mo didn’t know how to answer, so he just said, “Mr. Ji is already on his way. I’ll explain it to you when he gets here.”

　　Ji Anan refused to let him go and asked stubbornly, “Originally, you and Zhou Yang were a couple, right?”

　　At this point, Shen Mo couldn’t lie to her anymore, and after a long while he said, “It’s all in the past.”

　　Ji Anan blinked, and then tears flowed from her right eye and flowed down her cheek. Then she moved the corners of her mouth, revealing a pale smile, and whispered, “I understand.”

　　Shen Mo said anxiously: “An An…”

　　Ji Anan brushed his hand away, staring blankly ahead with her dark eyes, muttering, “Turns out they’re all fake…”

　　As she spoke, she turned around and stumbled out the door.

　　Shen Mo saw that something was wrong with her and wanted to follow her to see what was going on, but Zhou Yang grabbed his wrist.

　　Shen Mo turned around and glared at him, angrily saying: “Why do you talk to An An like that?”

　　Zhou Yang’s glasses were all knocked askew, and he looked quite miserable. He smiled bitterly and said, “In this situation today, can I still continue to coax her? Sooner or later, she will know the truth. It’s better to know it sooner than being deceived for a lifetime.”

　　Shen Mo was so angry that he just wanted to punch him again, but because he was worried about Ji Anan, he didn’t have time to waste, so he broke free from Zhou Yang’s hand and walked out.

　　Unexpectedly, he walked too fast and bumped into someone rushing in from outside.

　　Shen Mo looked up and saw that the person who came was none other than Ji Mingxuan. Although he had known that he would come, when he actually met him, he felt mixed emotions and was speechless for a while.

　　Ji Mingxuan’s breath was a little disordered, and he didn’t know if he had run up to the sixth floor. He looked at Shen Mo, then at Zhou Yang in the room, and was secretly surprised. However, he didn’t show it on his face, and just asked, “Where’s An An?”

　　Shen Mo didn’t dare to hide it and said directly: “Miss Ji knows everything.”

　　”Know what?”

　　”My story with Zhou Yang.”

　　Ji Mingxuan turned pale and asked immediately, “Where is she?”

　　”I just ran out.”
