Gu Wanqin and Ye Yanting admit their feelings after a date, but Gu Wanqin rejects Ye Yanting's advances, citing her engagement to his brother, Ye Qiu. Ye Yanting, hurt and angry, forces a kiss on Gu Wanqin before leaving. Later, Ye Qiu notices Ye Yanting's hostility and attempts to speak with him, but Ye Yanting denies anything is wrong.

Ye Qiu spoke to Ye Yanting in an encouraging tone, hoping he could bravely admit his feelings, but Ye Yanting seemed somewhat misunderstood. He even panicked thinking his brother might have discovered something and was purposely testing him.

"It’s really nothing, brother. I’m just a bit tired today. Don’t worry, elder sister-in-law is safely home," Ye Yanting replied with an expression that showed no hint of anything.

Ye Qiu saw Ye Yanting didn’t want to talk and didn’t pressure him — he couldn’t admit he was being cuckolded himself. Saying it out loud and graciously making them face their own emotions, wouldn’t it make him too much of a saint? Perhaps, with Ye Yanting’s personality, he might suspect him of having ulterior motives.

For now, let it be this way. Anyhow, the emotions of the male and female leads aren’t controllable. Someday they will have to face it, and it won’t be too late for him to gracefully step aside then.

Ye Qiu patted Ye Yanting on the shoulder, "Take a good rest. We’re brothers; if you want to say anything, you can always talk to me."

Ye Yanting clenched his hands, yet appeared calm on the surface, "Mm."

The days that followed were beyond Ye Qiu’s expectation. Not only did Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin never meet, but Ye Yanting actually started dating a girlfriend, and this girlfriend wasn’t unfamiliar to Ye Qiu — it was the vicious female antagonist from the past life, Tan Nana.

Actually, Ye Qiu didn’t quite understand why most of the female antagonist names followed the ABB naming pattern. The Tan Nana family had better conditions than the Ye Family and Gu Family, but her family mainly focused on the internet sector, with little intersection with the industrial enterprises of the Ye Family and Gu Family.

Tan Nana’s affection for Ye Yanting started from childhood. Tan Nana was a proud girl, adored by everyone around her, but Ye Yanting alone disregarded her. He was unwilling to play with her as a child and didn’t like her as he grew older. Perhaps it was this different air; Tan Nana despised those who obeyed her completely and clung onto Ye Yanting.

In the past life, Tan Nana’s outcome wasn’t bad nor good. She was the indirect driving force that pushed Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin together. It was precisely because of her that Ye Yanting repeatedly misjudged and misunderstood Gu Wanqin, leading her to use her family’s influence to collapse Gu Wanqin’s family’s company. She thought Ye Yanting would abandon the female lead who lost everything and accept her instead, but Ye Yanting, in anger, united with the Tan Family’s rival, using Tan Nana’s emotions against the Tan Family.

Though the Tan Family didn’t go bankrupt, they were significantly damaged; to punish her and prevent her from making any more foolish moves, the Tan Family liquidated assets and moved abroad.

To Ye Qiu’s perspective, even though Tan Nana was a bit bad, she wasn’t too evil; at least she hadn’t broken the law. The reason she could sow discord wasn’t because Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin didn’t trust each other? If one of them had been willing to explain a little more, if Ye Yanting hadn’t used Tan Nana as a shield to anger Gu Wanqin, Tan Nana wouldn’t have been drawn deeper.

Thus, seeing his brother Ye Yanting agree to date Tan Nana, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but frown. Isn’t this causing harm? What if the misunderstanding deepens, what if it becomes irreversible?

Coincidentally today, Gu Wanqin accepted Ren Zhen’s invitation for dinner at home, and Ye Yanting also brought Tan Nana, earnestly introducing her to the family, "Nana, you all know her, but we are already dating now, so we are family from here on."

Ye Qiu saw the instantly shocked expression and the immediate pale lips of Gu Wanqin, but she controlled herself well, immediately finding an excuse to fetch water, preventing Ren Zhen and others from noticing anything unusual.

Ren Zhen had always liked Tan Nana, mainly because Tan Nana’s family conditions were good, she was beautiful, and she was always devoted to her youngest son. Before her son didn’t accept Tan Nana, it worried her to pieces, but seeing them dating now, she was overwhelmingly happy.

"Nana, come sit. Tell Auntie what you’d like to eat, and Auntie will make it for you," Ren Zhen said enthusiastically.

"No need, Auntie," Tan Nana replied bashfully, "Whatever Yanting likes to eat, I’ll like too."

"Such a considerate child," Ren Zhen was increasingly satisfied, "Meeting you is a blessing for Yanting."

Tan Nana smiled but remained silent, her expression somewhat gloomy. She didn’t expect to be reborn one day, and right after agreeing to date Ye Yanting, thinking of everything in the past life, she couldn’t bring herself to like the Ye Family.

Not until Ye Yanting used her trust against her Tan Family, not until he said those cruel words to her, did Tan Nana realize that Ye Yanting never had any feelings for her in the past life. He only had the intent to use her, using her to provoke Gu Wanqin.

But she deserved it — why was she so obstinate? Knowing Ye Yanting liked Gu Wanqin, she was so persistent. Didn’t she have money? Didn’t she have the figure and beauty? Why did she cling to Ye Yanting?

Perhaps in her past life, she lacked brains. Were the clothes unattractive or food tasteless? Why humiliate herself repeatedly? There’s so many handsome young men in the world, was Ye Yanting the most outstanding? At least he wasn’t even better than his own brother.

Speaking of Ye Yanting’s brother, Tan Nana couldn’t help but cast her gaze at Ye Qiu, revealing a bit of pity in her eyes. This poor man might still not know his fiancée has been involved with his own brother, and because of the two’s disputes, this poor man would even lose his life.

Tan Nana shivered, having honestly realized in this life, Ye Yanting and Gu Wanqin can do whatever they want; she’s done serving them. She comprehensively understood these two can’t be separated and they cause trouble, easily affecting those around them; preserving her life was more crucial.

Yet before this, she still wanted to exact a small revenge — why should it be Ye Yanting who doesn’t want her? This time she’ll dump him first to avenge her past humiliation.

Tan Nana was immersed in her thoughts, not noticing Ye Qiu’s meaningful gaze.

Ye Qiu clearly sensed something odd about Tan Nana — he’s very sensitive to soul fluctuations. Tan Nana was odd indeed just now, and seeing her meaningful gaze, Ye Qiu already had a plan in mind. He thought this world’s task was simple, but unexpectedly, there was another surprise.

After all, Tan Nana hasn’t done anything atrocious. He can’t take harsh actions, but if Tan Nana was reborn and knew ahead and had a wealthy background, it would be really easy to cause damage.

Sigh, why is it so difficult to live comfortably? Can’t the male and female leads be straightforward? If they loved deeply and trusted each other, where would there be so many issues?
