Chapter 672: 672
Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an, who were far away in the villa area, were having a nice time .
Xiao Yunyun, who was living in the apartment close to the city center, had just woken up from her sleep .
Seeing the time displayed on the clock, even she herself was surprised . She cried, “I’ve slept for so long?”
She tidied up the quilt, got up, and searched the whole apartment, but she didn’t see Su Yunjin . Instead, she saw a note on the tea table in the living room .
Su Yunjin’s handwriting could be seen on the note .
“Yunyun, mom has something to do and has to go first . The breakfast is in the refrigerator . Heat it before eating and don’t forget to have lunch . Wait for my call in the evening, and we can have dinner together with your brother . ”
Xiao Yunyun opened the refrigerator, where there were two sandwiches and a glass of milk sealed with plastic .
She took it out and put it in the microwave oven . Then she went for a wash and cleaned up .
After washing up and changing clothes, Xiao Yunyun sat alone in the empty dining room facing the hot blackboard and milk . Only then did she realize that she had no appetite at all .
She was not hungry . She just felt empty .
It wasn’t that her stomach was empty, but rather, her entire being was empty .
It was as if there was no heart, blood vessels, or soul in her body . It was all empty . She was not like a person, but more like a walking dead .
How was it possible for a person’s soul to be filled with two packs of sandwiches and a glass of milk?
Xiao Yunyun stuffed the food into her stomach entirely . She was surprised to know that she had a chance to experience this feeling in her lifetime .
Life was really unpredictable .
After she finished eating, Xiao Yunyun went back to her room to review the books, but she didn’t even turn a page until she received a call from Su Yunjin .
“I have an appointment with your brother to have dinner at a restaurant on Chihua Road . ” Su Yunjin asked, “Shall I get a taxi to pick you up?”
“That’s not necessary . ” Xiao Yunyun subconsciously refused . “I’ll just take a taxi there by myself . See you at the restaurant . ”
“Okay . ” Su Yunjin didn’t notice Xiao Yunyun’s abnormality at all . Then she hung up the phone .
Xiao Yunyun put down her phone . Almost at the same time, something suddenly made her heart feel stuffed . She was so depressed that she wanted to cry, but she couldn’t find a vent to let out her tears .
It was only then she did realize that she had been unhappy for the entire afternoon .
Xiao Yunyun had been living a smooth life since she came to this world for more than 20 years . Even though her opinions differed from Su Yunjin’s when choosing her major at college, she still got into her favorite major as she wished in the end . Her relationship with Su Yunjin was not that bad .
But this time, there was a knot in front of her that could not be untied .
It was destined for them to be siblings .
She was confident that she could persuade Su Yunjin when choosing her major .
But this time, she knew very well that she had no ability to change the destiny .
What was even more fatal was that she still couldn’t let go of Shen Yuechuan even though she knew it was impossible between them .
She was completely helpless, but she could not tell anyone, let alone ask for help .
One couldn’t get the love he or she wanted was not the most painful experience in a love story .
It was the most painful when the law and customs of the human world didn’t allow you to love that person, even though you loved him .
Xiao Yunyun closed her eyes hard . When she opened them again, there were tears in her reddened eyes, but she tried her best to hold back her tears .
After thinking for a while, she put on light makeup and went out .
Since she failed to make herself to look like she was in a good mood, she wanted to make herself look beautiful at least .
After getting into the taxi, Xiao Yunyun suddenly received a call from Qin Han .
Qin Han was silent on the phone, and she didn’t know what to say for a while .
After a long while, Qin Han said in a low voice, “Yunyun, I’m sorry . ”
Xiao Yunyun smiled and said, “Did you forget that we’re not really in love at all? You don’t have to apologize to me . ”
“…” Qin Han was silent for a moment and then said with a bitter smile, “How dare I forget?”
Qin Han remembered that half a month ago, Xiao Yunyun suddenly came to him and asked him if he was willing to do her a favor .
He imagined a grand scene of a hero saving a beauty . He said passionately, “Of course I’m willing!”
Xiao Yunyun said, “Don’t be so sure first . I… I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend . ”
If it weren’t for Xiao Yunyun’s word “pretend”, Qin Han would have thought that he had heard it wrong .
“A boyfriend is a boyfriend, the kind of boyfriend with whom you can watch movies, eat together, and get married!”
“What do you mean by ‘a fake boyfriend’?”
He gave Xiao Yunyun a look which meant he couldn’t understand her words .
Xiao Yunyun was obviously embarrassed . She explained with difficulty, “I have something to tell you, but you must promise me that you will keep it a secret . ”
He nodded solemnly . “Definitely!”
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time . Then she said softly, “Shen Yuechuan is my brother . ”
Then, Xiao Yunyun told him that Su Yunjin didn’t return to Australia in time because she wanted to wait for a suitable occasion to announce Shen Yuechuan’s origin .
However, Su Yunjin cared about her not only because she was afraid Xiao Yunyun might not accept the truth . She suspected that Xiao Yunyun liked Shen Yuechuan and was worried that she wouldn’t be able to bear the blow after Shen Yuechuan’s real identity was publicized .
Therefore, Su Yunjin had been delaying it .
Qin Han slowly understood something . “So, you want me to cooperate with you to pretend to be in a relationship so that Aunt Yunjin can freely reveal Shen Yuechuan’s background?”
Xiao Yunyun nodded . “That’s the only way I can think of . ”
Qin Han looked at Xiao Yunyun and sighed calmly, “You really like Shen Yuechuan a lot . ”
Xiao Yunyun was surprised, and there was a little uneasiness in her eyes .
She liked Shen Yuechuan . It turned out to be so obvious that even Qin Han could see it . No wonder Su Yunjin had scruples .
She bit her lips and slowly lowered her head . “It’s true, I like him . It’s not the fondness among men, but the affection between men and women… It’s the first time I’ve fallen in love with someone, but he is my half-brother . Does it sound like a joke?”
At that moment, Qin Han suddenly felt very sad for Xiao Yunyun .
Such a young girl should be doted on by someone, but she carefully hid her feelings for the sake of her elders and pretended to be happy and free .
Since Shen Yuechuan couldn’t take good care of her, he would do the job .
Qin Han asked, “What do I need to do if I agree to be your ‘fake’ boyfriend?”

“There won’t be much for you to do,” Xiao Yunyun said hurriedly, “You just need to have a meal or watch a movie with me occasionally . We just need to do some things that ordinary couples do to look real . ”
“You’re too naive . ” Qin Han deliberately scared Xiao Yunyun . “The couple in love should want to stick together all the time . Do you think these behaviors will be enough to deceive them?”
“I’ve thought about that!” Xiao Yunyun smiled with a sense of accomplishment . “Just say that we’re busy! You’re busy with work, and I’m busy with the postgraduate entrance exam . We don’t need to stick together all the time!”
Qin Han thought, “In the beginning, I really can’t get Xiao Yunyun too intimate with me . As the saying goes, boil a frog in warm water!”
He nodded in agreement .
On that day, Qin Han took Xiao Yunyun to the party, had dinner with her, and watched a movie . Before he announced it, his “relationship” with Xiao Yunyun soon spread around .
However, the follow-up was not as smooth as he had imagined .
He had thought that he could win Xiao Yunyun’s heart step by step and get her heart away from Shen Yuechuan little by little .
However, Xiao Yunyun was stubborn and didn’t notice his feelings at all . She only treated him as a friend .
The most annoying thing was that Xiao Yunyun would say “thank you” to him every time they finished a date . What’s more, he couldn’t express his dissatisfaction .
After a long time of depression, Qin Han couldn’t suppress his desire to start a fight in the bar .
At that time, he really didn’t care whether Xiao Yunyun was afraid or if someone would hurt her . He was just furious .
And his anger was all the result of uneasiness .
On the surface, Xiao Yunyun was his girlfriend, and a bunch of his friends said that he had found a treasure .
Only he knew that everything between him and Xiao Yunyun was fake . After Shen Yuechuan’s background was exposed, they could break up at any time .
He had a beautiful imagination beside him . He was happy, but at the same time, he realized that beauty was all bubbles, and it would shatter as soon as anyone touched it .
If Shen Yuechuan hadn’t come that day, he might have really got into the fight .
But when Shen Yuechuan came, he was even angrier—when something terrible happened, the first person that came to Xiao Yunyun’s mind was still Shen Yuechuan .
For Young Master Qin, it was already a blow .
What he didn’t expect was that after returning home, he would hear a crueler truth from his father .

Therefore, it was not until today that he dared to contact Xiao Yunyun and apologize to her .
“Qin Han,” Xiao Yunyun said, “Last night, my mother had disclosed Shen Yuechuan’s background publicly . ”
Qin Han heard it clearly that Xiao Yunyun’s voice was full of disappointment .
He couldn’t imagine how Xiao Yunyun, who was always happy and energetic, would be like when she was frustrated .
He couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sad?”
Xiao Yunyun’s eyes became hot, and her tears almost came out of her eyes .
Fortunately, she had been studying hard in medical college for so many years . In addition to her professional knowledge, the skill she had learnt best was to control her emotions .
Xiao Yunyun quickly forced back her tears . “I used to think that as long as I tried hard, there was nothing impossible . Now I know that there are some things that you can’t change even if you’re willing to sacrifice your life . I’m sad, but… I’ll accept my fate . ”
Qin Han thought for a while and thought of his father’s words, but he didn’t tell the truth in the end . He just comforted Xiao Yunyun, “No matter what, you will always have me by your side . ”
Xiao Yunyun smiled and said, “Thank you, Qin Han . If it weren’t for you, this matter wouldn’t have been solved so quickly . ”
“I would rather this matter not be solved so quickly . ” Qin Han said half-jokingly, “Now that Shen Yuechuan’s matter has been solved, our relationship… it’s time to get it settled . ”
Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and didn’t know what to say .
When they were “in love”, she had discussed with Qin Han that they could claim their breakup after Shen Yuechuan’s background was made public .
However, from Qin Han’s tone, it sounded like she wanted to abandon him as soon as she finished making use of him?
“You don’t have to feel sorry about anything . ” Qin Han comforted Xiao Yunyun . “I also hope to regain my freedom as soon as possible . However, it’s not appropriate now . We shall wait until later . Otherwise, it will arouse suspicion . ”
If she broke up with Qin Han the minute Shen Yuechuan’s background was revealed, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of Su Jian’an and Su Yunjin .
Xiao Yunyun decided to listen to Qin Han’s words . “Then I can only deprive you of freedom for a while . ”
Qin Han smiled and said, “That’s exactly what I want . ”
