Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


The 15th of August finally arrived.


A new day started as the sun dawned upon City Z. The morning was quiet. It was a good day accompanied by good weather.


Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha were holding their wedding ceremony at a huge church on the outskirts of City Z. They would be having their banquet at the Emperor Hotel which the Qi family had reserved the whole of, and their guests could stay over if they wished to.


Qi Lei headed over to the Qi residence early in the morning just in time as Qi Feng was about to go out.


Gu Lingsha went to the Emperor Hotel to make the preparations together with her bridesmaids earlier. Qi Feng would head there to fetch her later.


As Qi Qiming was relieved to see Qi Lei, he handed a floral boutonnière to him. “Accompany your brother over. The car has already been prepared, so get ready and go get your sister-in-law. It’s a happy day today and I hope the both of you won’t let me down. The media will be present, and I want them to see a happy and united Qi family. Do you hear me?” Qi Qiming looked at them pointedly and said.


Qi Lei took the boutonnière and put it on his lapel before glancing at Qi Feng in his suit.


“I know. Don’t worry, Father,” Qi Feng replied to Qi Qiming as he glanced back at Qi Lei who walked towards the car. Morrison came over and wheeled Qi Feng towards the car.


Qi Feng and Qi Lei were in the same car for the first time after so many years. They were so close that they could hear each other’s breathing. The two of them did not say a thing. Even the chauffeur and Morrison could sense that something was not right, so they kept quiet as well.


After some time, Qi Feng started to get tired of the heavy atmosphere, so he turned over to look at Qi Lei and spoke up, his tone sounding peaceful, “I know you weren’t willing to come today even though it’s my wedding, but I hope you can at least cooperate a little. That’s not a very tough request for you, is it?”


Qi Lei glanced at him coldly without saying anything.


Qi Feng chuckled. “You really don’t want to hang around me, huh?”


Qi Lei’s expression froze a little. He took a deep breath before turning away, facing the window. He did not want to talk to him at all. With no good memories of Qi Feng, he would not even have been there if the circ.u.mstances had not forced him to.


“Not really,” Qi Lei lied, his tone cold.


“Xiao Lei, you’re not a good liar. I know you hate me.”


“Why do you think I hate you? What is there for me to hate you about?” Qi Lei turned back to face him, his tone filled with sarcasm. “Don’t put on such an act. You’re just the same as our old man. You don’t act how you really feel. I know you were the one who almost forced me out of City Z. Are you really worthy of being my brother? If you had a choice, I believe that you’d want me to disappear, am I right?”


“You have too much bias against me, Xiao Lei.” Qi Feng smiled bitterly. “You’re the one who’s making me uneasy. You know about the conflict between Mu Yuchen and me, but you’re siding with him now. You also know me very well. I can only see people who are against me as my enemy. I can’t just let things stay as they are. What would you do if you were me?”


“Whatever you say. Whoever lends me a helping hand during the toughest times is my friend. My values aren’t as complicated as yours. I’ll be friends with anyone who treats me well. Those who don’t will be my opponents or even enemies.” Qi Lei’s tone suddenly turned serious.


“Enemies? Am I in your list of enemies now?” Qi Feng smiled coldly as he threw a sharp glance at Qi Lei.


Qi Lei did not answer while his expression was cold.


“It seems like you really hate me, but since you’re my brother, I hope you can stay out of things between Mu Yuchen and me. I don’t mind if you’re friends with him, or even as close as brothers, but I hope you know your place. If Mu Yuchen really sees you as a friend, I suppose he wouldn’t want you to be involved as well. What do you think?”


“That’s just your own thought. If we’re friends, shouldn’t we go through the tough times together?”


“The person you’re going against is your own brother. Do you really think that’s fine? What’s the difference with…”


“Killing your own family? Were you going to say that?” Qi Lei finished his sentence for him. “Qi Feng, do you really think that I’m a fool? A fool that will just follow whatever you say? You’re just the same as that old man, trying to play the family card with me. I’m tired of it. We can’t be brothers because I don’t know when you’ll kill me. I’m afraid of death, and I’m afraid of losing everything. Can you please just leave me alone?”


As Qi Feng smiled wryly, their conversation stopped right there and no one said anything anymore.



It was a cozy, windy afternoon.


Xi Xiaye was relaxing in the rattan chair on the second floor of Maple Residence while the man was swimming around in the pool below. Su Chen and Zhou Zimo were there as well, and the three of them were chatting.


While Xi Xiaye was a little zoned out, Ji Zitong suddenly smiled gently and spoke, “Sometimes, I’m really envious of their relationship. He always tells me about the three of them.”
