Jiang Yujie cried as she said, “But I am lucky; you’re so nice, and Big Brother is also nice. I remember when I first entered this house, you brought me to look at my room, which was specially prepared for me. Big Brother did not reject me either. I still remember what he looked like while saying to a scared me, ‘Little sister, from now on, I am your older brother.’
“I know you treat me like your own daughter. You are strict when I make mistakes, but usually, you spoil me. Big Brother also kept protecting me. When I was bullied outside, he would make them pay, avenging me. When he came back full of injuries, he also had to get hit by you. Even then, he still kept on protecting me.
“When we grew older, he graduated from university and started to work. He told me that it’s hard to buy a house in B City. We’re just an ordinary family, so he didn’t want you to buy him a house. Instead, he wanted you to leave the money for me. He didn’t want this house as well and wanted to leave it to me. He worked hard by himself. He’s a man and he could earn to pay for his daily needs. I’m a girl and I didn’t need to worry too much, as long as I was happy. Perhaps he couldn’t really make me a princess, but he was willing to try his best to make my life easy.
“However, this house was originally his,” said Jiang Yujie. “Even blood-related siblings are not as good to each other as he is to me. Dad, you and my brother have never made me feel like I was an outsider. You have never made me feel like I was not blood-related.
“We’re a family, but I still can’t forget the gratitude that I have for you all. It’s you who accepted me from the first day,” said Jiang Yujie. “For my older brother, what can I not do? All this time, he has protected me. Since I could do it and had this solution, then I had to protect him.”
Mr. Jiang wiped his face. “I won’t say anything else. Yujie, you just have to remember that for your enormous sacrifice for Huaizhou, we will never do anything to wrong you for the rest of our lives.
“We will protect you for life! From now on, nobody can talk bad about you regarding this,” said Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Yujie cried and laughed as she nodded. “Dad, let’s pack up and move.”
“Why? Move now?” Mr. Jiang did not reject the idea, but he did not expect it to be so quick.
Mrs. Jiang also wiped away her tears and looked at Jiang Yujie with a face full of surprise.
Jiang Yujie nodded. “I stole the evidence from Lu Qiyuan. Since I have stolen it, I will definitely not return, and I don’t dare to work there anymore. After he finds out that I have disappeared, he will definitely suspect something. His finding out that I have stolen the evidence from him is just a matter of time.
“If he’s fast, he will find out by afternoon today. If we’re lucky, then it will be tomorrow latest. By tomorrow, when he finds out that I didn’t go to the office, he will feel suspicious,” said Jiang Yujie. “So we have to leave immediately.”
Jiang Yujie was afraid that Mr. Jiang had his concerns, so she explained immediately, “I have rented a house. Don’t worry, I paid for the rent from my own pocket. It’s the salary that I have earned myself.”
She pursed her lips. “While being with Lu Qiyuan, it’s impossible that I didn’t spend his money at all, or else it would be too suspicious. However, I didn’t value his money, so I didn’t spend much, just on daily needs. I didn’t touch what’s left, nor did I bring any back. What I have is from my usual salary..”
