"Was I letting you know first?"

Li Xiaochen blinked twice, not quite understanding.

Lu Yang said simply and clearly, "Just tell me as soon as you see what industry you're interested in."

Why?

"because……"

Lu Yang thought for a moment, then said, "I'll help you check things out. After all, I'm your brother-in-law, and I'll help you avoid pitfalls."

Li Xiaochen touched his chin.

That seems to make sense.

My brother-in-law is my advisor, so I won't make the same mistakes as before.

My brother-in-law is such a good person!

"Okay!"

Li Xiaochen's eyes lit up, and she said, "Then brother-in-law, I'll report all my ideas to you from now on!"

Lu Yang hummed in agreement.

well.

From now on, whatever this kid is bullish on, I'll short it.

Upon hearing this, Li Xixue, sitting in her office chair, finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally managed to persuade this financial bombshell in the investment world to back down.

"Brother-in-law, about the bubble tea shop..."

Li Xiaochen spoke again: "But I really did a lot of research."

"Research is research, and execution is execution."

Lu Yang quickly said, "I acknowledge your research abilities, but how should I put it? What if your unfavorable constitution affects the entire milk tea industry?"

Li Xiaochen: "?"

"What's this 'reverse constitution'?"

Lu Yang quickly corrected himself: "I meant, what if something goes wrong again?"

"No, brother-in-law, this time I..."

"Xiao Chen".

Li Xixue suddenly spoke up: "If your brother-in-law says it's not suitable, then it's not suitable."

"But……"

"No buts."

Looking at her older sister's uncompromising face, Li Xiaochen could only regretfully give up.

Fine.

The couple joined forces to suppress him.

How could he possibly defeat them all by himself?

and many more……

I think I just forgot something.

Li Xiaochen looked at Li Xixue.

Lu Yang also looked at Li Xixue.

The two people had remarkably similar expressions.

"Sis, what did you just say?"

Li Xiaochen blinked twice, then asked in surprise, "Did you call him brother-in-law?"

Li Xixue paused.

Did I say that?

The key point is that he didn't think at all when he said it.

I don't know how it happened, it just came out naturally.

"You misheard me, I didn't."

Li Xixue didn't even look up, pretending to be flipping through documents.

He must have been influenced by Li Xiaochen calling him "brother-in-law" all the time!

definitely is!

"You called out! I heard you!"

Li Xiaochen turned to look at Lu Yang: "Brother-in-law, you heard that too, right?"

Lu Yang nodded, barely suppressing the urge to smile.

"Don't nod!"

Li Xixue raised her head and glared at Lu Yang.

Lu Yang quickly stopped nodding.

But the corners of her mouth were still turned up.

Li Xiaochen slapped his thigh: "I knew it! Sis, even though you kept saying this wouldn't work and that wouldn't work, you'd already accepted it in your heart!"

Li Xixue pursed her lips, her face flushing.

"Who, who admitted it? I just misspoke!"

"I know that, it was a slip of the tongue... which means that my subconscious mind approves of it."

"Nonsense."

"This isn't nonsense; it's something my teachers taught me while I was studying abroad."

"..."

Li Xiaochen's analysis was so logical that the tigress who usually dominated him was speechless.

Li Xixue took a deep breath.

Forget it.

"Oh, right, sis."

Li Xiaochen chuckled, then suddenly remembered something: "Do you know what I saw when Mom and I were shopping downtown yesterday?"

Li Xixue didn't speak, her expression showing no interest.

"It's dog food!"

Li Xiaochen clicked her tongue twice: "The streets are overflowing with PDA!"

Li Xixue turned a page of the document and ignored him.

Li Xiaochen didn't give up. He opened a photo, held up his phone, and brought it close to Li Xixue's face.

"Look at this couple, can you believe they're doing a princess carry in the street?"

Li Xixue wasn't particularly interested at first.

But when she caught a glimpse of that photo out of the corner of her eye, her hand stopped flipping through the documents.

The photo wasn't very clear; due to the nighttime setting and the distance, the faces were blurry.

But that figure, and that dress.

And that posture of being held.

Li Xixue's throat went dry.

Isn't this the photo of Lu Yang holding her when her heels were chafed?

She glanced at Lu Yang quickly.

Lu Yang saw it too.

The moment their eyes met.

The atmosphere instantly became awkward.

They actually got photographed!

Li Xiaochen was still talking to herself from the side:

"Look at this guy, he's really strong. He carried someone for so long without his hands shaking. And, for some reason, he looks like someone I've seen before... I don't know if I've seen him somewhere before."

Li Xixue quickly looked away and lowered her head to continue reading the documents.

But her hands were noticeably faster at turning the pages.

"Oh right, and this one too."

Li Xiaochen swiped again, and a second photo popped up.

This photo was taken in the square.

Two people are standing close together in front of the railing next to the fountain.

Although the face is still unclear, the posture...

Li Xixue's ears burned.

How come even the scene of you kissing was filmed?

Although she was a little flustered inside, she maintained a nonchalant expression on her face.

She didn't say anything.

Embarrassing, guilty.

Saying the wrong thing at this point would expose your innocence.

"Sis, look at that couple! They're showing off their love in public, they don't treat people like dogs at all!"

Li Xiaochen marveled at the photo:

"Sis, you know what? My mom said that this woman looked like you from behind, hahaha, isn't that funny?"

"I said, how could that be? With my sister's temper, how could she possibly kiss a man in front of so many people?"

"Unless it's the end of the world."

Li Xixue lowered her head and continued flipping through the documents: "It might be... Mom's eyesight isn't very good."

Li Xiaochen nodded, completely agreeing.

Fortunately, the photo was so blurry, and the lighting was poor at night, that it was impossible to tell who it was.

Otherwise, this matter will be difficult to explain.

Thinking about this...

Li Xixue immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second...

Li Xiaochen suddenly muttered something.

He frowned, his gaze falling on Li Xixue again.

He compared the contours of the profile.

Li Xiaochen frowned.

wrong.

He took out his phone again, flipped to the photo from before, and zoomed in to take a closer look at the woman's profile.

Then, he looked at Lu Yang next to him and compared the man's features.

To be honest, he felt like he had seen the man in the photo somewhere before.

Now that I think about it, I realize I look a bit like my brother-in-law!

The woman looks like the older sister, and the man looks like the brother-in-law...

The more I look at it, the more I feel that way.

"sister."

Li Xiaochen stared intently at her older sister, a suspicious expression on her face.

Li Xixue responded somewhat guiltily, "Hmm?"

Li Xiaochen asked directly, "What did you and your brother-in-law do at seven o'clock last night?"

Li Xixue paused for a moment: "Why are you asking this?"

Li Xiaochen said, "It's just... I think the man and woman look a lot like you and your brother-in-law."
