The president tried to trick me Chapter 2241
Previously on The president tried to trick me...
Yan Yuhan initially gave a nod before inquiring, “What is it?”
“Yes.” Yan Yusheng’s face flushed as she sheepishly explained, “Originally, Brother Che Er mentioned visiting the day after Mom and Dad returned, but Godfather and Godmother arrived that same day. Then, you vanished for several days… So, if you’re not busy these coming days, I’ll arrange it with him to discuss when you could come over for a meal at our place?”
The visit had been set in motion earlier, but unforeseen events led to repeated postponements.
Upon hearing this, Yan Yuhan recalled that Quan Che hadn't officially been invited for a family meal…
While modern young couples enjoy considerable freedom in their relationships, since Quan Che was the one to initiate, it was only proper for him to meet the parents.
Otherwise, it would create undue complications for his parents.
After a moment’s reflection, Yan Yuhan turned to Yan Yusheng with an apologetic tone, “This older brother has caused you delays.”
“What?!” Yan Yusheng’s complexion deepened with a blush. “Your safe return is already the greatest blessing. Right now, my only wish is for our family to remain safe and always together.”
Yan Yuhan smiled at her innocent words. Just as he was about to respond, his phone vibrated abruptly.
It happened to be within his reach, so he casually picked it up to check.
A text message from an unknown number appeared—
[Are you feeling better?]
The message contained only these few words, devoid of any signature.
Yet, even with such brevity, Yan Yuhan immediately recognized the sender.
A subtle smile touched his deep-set eyes.
It was An Zijin. She was the sole person aware of his injury who hadn't saved his contact information.
Prior to his departure, Yan Yuhan had given her his cell phone number along with some cash.
He had a feeling then that perhaps… he should leave it behind for her…
The message he just received confirmed that his intuition was correct.
Yan Yusheng, fully anticipating her brother’s response, was instead met with the sight of him gazing at his phone screen with a smile…
A sense of bewilderment washed over Yan Yusheng.
Why did her brother suddenly seem like a stranger?
And why did the sight of him holding his phone and smiling so goofily feel so oddly familiar?
Hmm, wasn't this the very same expression she wore whenever she communicated with Brother Che Er?
A sudden realization dawned upon Yan Yusheng, as if a veil had been lifted.
She gazed at her brother, her eyes wide with disbelief, finding the situation utterly surreal.
Could it be that during the few days her brother was missing, something significant had transpired that she was completely unaware of?
“Brother, what… are you looking at?” After a moment of hesitation, Yan Yusheng finally ventured a tentative question…
Yan Yuhan quickly typed a reply. However, his eyes twinkled with amusement as he looked at Yan Yusheng. “When will you bring Brother Quan over for dinner?”
He completely sidestepped her inquiry, raising an unrelated question instead.
Yan Yusheng’s train of thought was momentarily disrupted. She answered drowsily, “Perhaps… the day after tomorrow?”
“Alright. We’ll do it together then,” Yan Yuhan said, gently ruffling her hair. His smile was unusually tender.
This tenderness unnerved Yan Yusheng, prompting her to quickly question, “What do you mean by ‘together’? Are we having dinner together?”
“You’ll find out the day after tomorrow.”
“Then what were you just looking at?” Yan Yusheng still suspected her brother was keeping something from her…
“My phone,” Yan Yuhan replied composedly.
Yan Yusheng was left speechless.
Long after leaving her brother’s room, Yan Yusheng continued to ponder: Could Big Brother… be falling in love too??
Could Yuan Bao have been right after all?
