My whirlwind marriage partner is a wealthy CEO

Chapter 96 Stealing My Sister's Boyfriend

During her time in the United States, Zhu Yahan studied diligently day and night, always cherishing her longing and anticipation for Wanqingsha.

She thought that once she finished her studies and returned to China, she could become Wan Qingsha's beautiful bride, just like her father had always told her.

However, fate played a cruel joke on her.

While she was far away in a foreign country, she suddenly received news that Wan Qingsha and Zhu Ziqing were engaged.

Zhu Yahan felt as if she had been punched hard in the heart.

All that deep affection and expectation was shattered in an instant.

She closed her eyes in anguish, tears welling in them. "Why? Ah Qing, how could you do this to me? Father clearly said I would be your bride, so why did you choose her?"

She kept shouting in her heart, her inner struggle like a small boat tossed about in a storm.

At the time, Zhu Yahan was abroad when she heard the news that Wan Qingsha and Zhu Ziqing were about to get engaged.

In that instant, she felt as if her whole world had collapsed.

She locked herself in her room, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam, heartbroken for days and nights.

The pain in her heart was like a sharp knife, constantly churning inside her.

It wasn't until the appearance of another outstanding man at a university abroad that her mood gradually improved.

It happened on campus when Zhu Yahan was troubled by some academic problems and happened to meet Tan Xiangdong, a student majoring in financial management.

He was tall and robust, exuding a unique charm.

Especially his deep eyes and charming smile, which instantly attracted Zhu Yahan's attention.

Zhu Yahan was deeply attracted by Tan Xiangdong's temperament and appearance, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

So she inquired about Tan Xiangdong from various sources, wanting to understand him more deeply.

Finally, at the school's debate and speech competition.

Zhu Yahan made careful preparations and, with her eloquence and intelligence, successfully caught Tan Xiangdong's attention.

After that, Zhu Yahan mustered up her courage and took the initiative to pursue Tan Xiangdong.

Under her ardent pursuit, the two eventually became close friends, practically lovers.

However, as time went on, Zhu Yahan discovered some problems.

Tan Xiangdong was always very busy, and they rarely had the chance to meet.

Although they are lovers, they have never even had the most basic intimate gestures.

Zhu Yahan gradually began to have doubts.

She often wondered to herself, "Is he really sincere in his relationship with me?"

Two months after their relationship was confirmed, Zhu Yahan felt increasingly uneasy.

She realized that Tan Xiangdong might not care about her, which plunged her into deep pain and confusion.

Zhu Yahan returned to China after finishing her studies and never saw Tan Xiangdong again.

At the airport, Zhu Ziqing was unable to come in person due to other commitments, so she asked Wan Qingsha to pick up Zhu Yahan.

When Zhu Yahan saw Wanqingsha, she felt a mix of emotions.

During her conversation with Wan Qingsha, she keenly sensed that there seemed to be some rift between Zhu Ziqing and Wan Qingsha.

A calculating glint flashed in Zhu Yahan's eyes; she decided to seize the opportunity.

On a hot summer day, Zhu Yahan and Wan Qingsha went out together.

Under the blazing sun, Zhu Yahan seized the opportunity and pretended to faint from heatstroke in Wan Qingsha's arms.

Wan Qingsha looked at the frail Zhu Yahan in her arms, and a ripple of emotion stirred in her heart.

Ultimately, he couldn't resist the temptation, and the two went to bed together and had sex.

During that intimate moment, Wan Qingsha unconsciously called out Zhu Ziqing's name.

Zhu Yahan felt a slight pang of pain upon hearing this, but she didn't mind.

She comforted herself, "It's okay, it's me lying under him, what does Zhu Ziqing matter?"

Zhu Yahan always believed that Zhu Ziqing was always busy with her studies and work.

And she can do the things that Zhu Ziqing is unwilling to do in place of her sister.

She holds an extremely optimistic attitude towards her relationship with Wan Qingsha.

In her view, once such a beginning is made, everything else will fall into place naturally.

She firmly believed that one day, Wan Qingsha would completely forget Zhu Ziqing and fall in love with her wholeheartedly.

……

Tan Haoyu escorted Zhu Ziqing to their meeting place.

He stood tall and straight, like a model, and his powerful aura drew the attention of passing women.

Tan Haoyu did not go in, but stood quietly to the side outside the door.

He smiled and gestured to Zhu Ziqing not to worry.

Zhu Ziqing took a deep breath, and with a hint of determination, walked into the restaurant alone.

Inside the restaurant, Zhu Ziqing spotted Zhu Yahan sitting there in a daze from afar.

Three years have passed quietly, but Zhu Yahan's appearance seems to have been frozen in time.

Her fair skin remained unchanged, and her pitiful, delicate, and fragile appearance was also unchanged.

Zhu Ziqing walked towards her with steady steps.

When they were still a few steps away, Zhu Yahan seemed to sense something.

Looking up, she smiled first and said softly, "Qingqing, you've come."

"Hmm." Zhu Ziqing's response was extremely cold.

She herself never expected that she could be so calm when facing Zhu Yahan again.

It was as if the person in front of me had no connection to the catastrophic disaster two years ago, and was just an emotionless stranger.

Zhu Yahan said enthusiastically, "I ordered your favorite braised pork, steamed fish, and..."

“I’ve already eaten lunch. Didn’t you say you wanted to tell me about Mom? Just say it.” Zhu Ziqing interrupted her without any mercy.

Zhu Yahan paused slightly and said, "Dad hopes you can return to the capital."

Seeing the hint of disappointment flash in Zhu Yahan's eyes.

Zhu Ziqing felt no emotion and no regret.

Seeing that Zhu Ziqing did not speak, Zhu Yahan said indifferently, "After you left that time, I had a miscarriage and will never be able to have children again."

Zhu Ziqing frowned slightly, instantly understanding.

She sneered, "Hmph, he wants me to go back, does he want me to have a child for the Wan family?"

Zhu Yahan's miscarriage and the fact that she can no longer have children made Zhu Ziqing realize the truth.

Her father was calling her back only to have a child with Wan Qingsha.

Her eyes were filled with disappointment and resentment towards her father.

In her heart, her father was no longer the safe haven she could rely on.

He only cared about the family's reputation and interests, completely disregarding the happiness and safety of his wife and daughters.

Zhu Ziqing slightly raised her head, her gaze calm and sharp.

He slowly said, "I have long seen through it all. This is nothing more than a game of chess that Father and you have carefully planned."

My engagement with Wan Qingsha was nothing more than a pretext set up by you for the benefit of your families.

Her voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable tone.

Her disappointment with her father and family was like a thorn deeply rooted in her heart, causing her excruciating pain with every touch.

As for Wan Qingsha, Zhu Ziqing was also filled with hatred.
