Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yun Liu was engulfed in great happiness and didn’t sleep for almost the entire night. Such good fortune came upon her too suddenly, making her both delighted and panicked.

‘Shi Nian is indeed my lucky star. I’m glad I’d been quick-witted back then. I wouldn’t have been able to make Shi Nian have a good impression ofme ifI hadn’t decisively chosen to cover for him, ‘ she thought.

‘ With Shi Nian’s approval, even that bullheaded princess, Shi Xiu, gave in and allowed me to participate in the documentary. Moreover, she put my interview filming as an urgent priority, letting me cut the queue and finish filming before Yan Tang and the others. Even my script was emergently completed by Fang Xi and Lu Hui. I don’t think any other person would receive such treatment other than me, Yun Liu,’ she thought smugly.

‘And Yun Nan didn’t say anything the whole time,’ Yun Liu inwardly crowed. ‘ What can she say? All her attention is probably on coaxing Shi Nian right this moment.’ Thinking of the crack that must’ve appeared in Yun Nan and Shi Nian’s relationship, Yun Liu couldn’t help but want to jump up and do a jig or two in joy.

‘Not only that, I also had an unexpected bonus. Yun Zhang, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, had also come. He muse ve come around during this period of time and seen my capabilities. He finally decided to get close and curry favor with me.’

Honestly, Yun Liu still had some feelings for Yun Zhang. This big brother of hers had been a fool since he was a kid—he was easily duped and would always listen to her. Compared to those in the Gu family, who didn’t take her seriously, Yun Zhang was a brother who warmed her heart. ‘Having an obedient lackey by my side is truly quite enjoyable,’ Yun Liu thought.

Her phone vibrated silently on her blanket. It rang for quite sometime before Yun Liu, who was immersed in exultation, noticed. She grabbed it and looked at it. It was Tan Ning calling.

Yun Liu picked up the call and spoke as she glanced out the window. The sky had just started to lighten. “Hey, Tan Ning. Why are you calling so early?”

Tan Ning’s agitated voice came through: “Yun Liu, why didn’t you tell us about this? How are we supposed to advertise this if you don’t let us know beforehand? How are we supposed to work this?”

Thinking she was talking about her being out in public with Shi Nian, Yun Liu chuckled, “Tan Ning, why are you making such a fuss? What’s there to advertise about? That’s just the beginning of my plan; the show hasn’t even started yet. I’ll definitely discuss it with you once things are set. When that time comes, isn’t it better to stay quiet before shocking the world all at once?”

Tan Ning replied anxiously, “This matter isn’t shocking enough for you? Yun Liu, you, have you really thought it through?”

Yun Liu turned over in her bed and said coquettishly, “Yes! Of course, I have! This has been my greatest wish since I was a kid. It’s my only goal in life.”

Tan Ning fell silent as if she were still digesting this shocking news. Yun Liu suddenly realized something was wrong. “Tan Ning, how did you know about it? Were we photographed by the paparazzi? That can’t be! I would love to let the paparazzi take a picture of us together, but Shi Xiu would hardly be willing to let such news leak so quickly. It seems that I have so many paparazzi following me that Shi Xiu couldn’t manage to silence them all,” Yun Liu uttered gloatingly, her mood great.

Tan Ning replied gravely, “Yes, the news has been out since midnight and has gotten everyone abuzz. Xiao Yun’s phone and mine have been ringing non-stop, and even the company’s PR and publicity staff aren’t spared. This news of yours is truly too unexpected.”

Yun Liu was pleased, thinking, ‘Yun Nan, I finally one-upped you!’

“Yun Liu, are you truly sure about getting together with Yun Zhang?” Tan Ning inquired.

“Yeah!” Yun Liu answered offhandedly, and Tan Ning went quiet. Yun Liu belatedly realized what Tan Ning had said and was stunned. “Wait, what?! Tan Ning, what did you say?

“I’m asking you, have you really decided to marry Yun Zhang?” Tan Ning asked once more in confirmation.

Yun Liu jumped out of bed and screamed, “Yun Zhang?! Me, marry Yun Zhang? Why would I want to marry Yun Zhang? Are you crazy? Why would I possibly marry Yun Zhang?”

Fearing her eardrums would burst, Tan Ning moved her phone away from her ear, and her heart sank. ‘Sh*t! We’re in trouble! The news has already spread everywhere, but Yun Liu is actually unaware ofit!

Tan Ning had felt that something was wrong when she saw the news. However, she had to believe it because there were pictures to prove it. In the photos, Yun Zhang was extremely affectionate to Yun Liu, and Yun Liu also had a tender and sweet expression. In one of the photos, Yun Zhang was brushing Yun Liu’s hair to the back of her ears, and Yun Liu had her head lowered with a shy smile. Seeing this, no one would think they were siblings, blood-related or not!

‘ Yun Liu was tricked,’ Tan Ning realized. ‘And the one who played her was her non-related brother, Yun Zhang. The Yun Zhang who treated her like his own sister.. The Yun Zhang who was my ex-boss—the ex-boss that I betrayed?
