Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

271 Run Fast My Little Rabbit 1

Did Qin Jiran accept his sister's terms only because he was so selfish that he neither cared if he was the first nor last so long that he could be with Tang Moyu? Tang Beixuan wondered.

As someone who'd been in love with Li Meili for a long time, he could understand why Qin Jiran would do that. Even he was willing to accept anything and everything so long as he could prove his sincerity towards Li Meili, but the woman refused to see him beyond being her best friend's little brother and still treated him like a boy.

This infuriated the youngest Tang sibling. He couldn't understand why Li Meili won't see him as the man he was. Who cares if he was younger than her? It wasn't like he committed a crime that she would cause her to be ashamed to be with him.

He gave the devil a wry smile before turning his head to the other side, refusing to meet Qin Jiran's eyes. He wasn't sure how to explain that he was after his sister's best friend. Ever since he met Li Meili, he'd wanted her.

For the past five years he had waited for his chance, waited to grow up until he was old enough to pursue her, but Li Meili was just too ruthless. Perhaps, it's about time for him to give up and accept that she truly didn't want him.

"So what's eating you? Not that I want to know, but you know that I have to say something to your sister once I return." Feng Tianyi said. "Is your mother bothering you now?" He asked curiously.

Tang Beixuan shook his head and looked away. historical

"No, it's fine. I already explained to her I'm working at Tang Enterprise. I don't think she would complain, now that I joined the company as she expected me to." He answered.

"If that's the case, then why are you sighing every minute? I'm sure Moyu isn't the only one who noticed your sudden change." The devil asked.

Tang Beixuan glanced at him and hesitated. His sister might not be able to understand, but Qin Jiran should, right? Considering that he hadn't won the empress's heart easily.

"Is it about a woman?" The devil seemed to know what was going on in his mind.

"You can tell?" Tang Beixuan didn't think that it was that obvious that Qin Jiran could suspect what was troubling him.

Feng Tianyi shrugged, pulling the break of his wheelchair and standing up on his feet with the help of the table in front of them, catching the younger man off guard.

Aside from inaccessible ramps, getting stuck at narrowed doors and having blisters on his hands from time to time, what Feng Tianyi hated the most was the discomfort of sitting for too long on his wheelchair, which was inevitable.

"Do you need help?" Tang Beixuan stood up, ready to help him just in case Qin Jiran's legs gave up.

Feng Tianyi held up his hand and shook his head before taking small steps until he was able to be seated across Moyu's brother.

"I'm fine. I just need to get used to it. I mean to walk again." He explained. "So… this woman…"

Tang Beixuan ran both hands over his face and sighed, truly defeated by Li Meili's rejection.

"She doesn't want me chasing her around." He muttered, earning a low laugh from the devil.

"I'm sorry, Beixuan but I don't think any person would like to be followed around, especially women." Feng Tianyi replied, at least Tang Beixuan was opening up to him, although he wasn't sure what was really the problem.

"I know." Tang Beixuan said, almost whining. "For five years, I've patiently waited for her. But it doesn't seem like she could see all my efforts and kept wanting to chose another man around her age." He grumbled.

"You mean, she's older than you?" Feng Tianyi didn't think that Moyu's brother would prefer to date older women, but he had to give him some points for that. Five years he said, that's a long time to adore a person without expecting anything in return. So he was after that woman since he was nineteen or in his twenties?

"She is." Tang Beixuan sounded so lost right then. "I wanted her to see me as a man, not some foolish kid who used to have a crush on her. I thought by coming back, finishing my studies, she would start to see me in a different light, but no… She rejected me, again."

He was trying to understand where Li Meili was coming from, however, he couldn't help but be annoyed. Li Meili was using his own sister as a reasoning why they couldn't be together sounded ridiculous to him. Tang Beixuan didn't think that his sister would oppose him dating her best friend as long as he took the responsibility that came with the relationship seriously.

If there was anything that Tang Moyu didn't like about a man, it was them being irresponsible. No wonder she was never interested in that butt-faced Feng Tianhua. If Feng Tianhua had a brain better than a monkey, perhaps he wouldn't flaunt his women in front of his sister, ruining his own impression on her.

As for Li Meili, Tang Beixuan was willing to do anything for her, but it was impossible for him to cut ties with Tang Moyu and be reborn as another person just because she didn't want to date her best friend's brother.

He didn't want her to treat him differently just because of who his sister was. It wasn't fair for the two of them.

"Have you ever asked if she felt something for you?" Feng Tianyi asked.
