434: Tang Chuan and his sister reconcile

In an elegantly decorated room.

"Third Brother, you... you... are you looking for me for something?"

"This watermelon... could it be for me...?"

...

Looking at Tang Chuan, who entered the room with a plate of fruit, Tang Ling was very surprised.

What's going on? (・◇・)?

He never visits without a reason?

My blind Third Brother couldn't possibly be so kind as to specifically bring me fruit to eat, could he?

Could he be here to vent his anger on behalf of his Fake Heiress sister, who isn't even related by blood?

Hiss~~~~

He wouldn't have poisoned the watermelon, intending to harm me, would he (ÒωÓױ)!!!!

Tang Ling didn't have much affection for this Third Brother, who had repeatedly sided with the Fake Heiress and coldly bullied her. She just wanted to send him away quickly.

In Tang Ling's heart, Cousin Lin Xuan was the only good brother who truly cared for and protected her.

As for the person in front of her, he was merely a familiar stranger with a superficial blood relation...

Noticing the strong sense of distance in Tang Ling's eyes, for some reason, Tang Chuan's heart ached.

It was then that he truly realized one thing: the person in front of him... was his own biological sister!!!!

But what had he done in the days since she returned home?

He had only been wary of her, fearing that Tang Ling would use her identity as the true Qianjin to bully Tang Rou and snatch everything Tang Rou currently had, causing Tang Rou to suffer.

Little did he know, all of this originally belonged to Tang Ling.

Tang Rou was the 'thief' who had usurped her place; she had enjoyed eighteen years in Tang Ling's stead, while Tang Ling had suffered eighteen years in the hellish Chu Family Village in her place...

Now, it was perfectly reasonable for Tang Ling to want to reclaim everything that belonged to her.

As her biological brother, not only did he not feel sorry for his sister's plight, but he also repeatedly sided with the Fake Heiress and bullied his own biological sister... Sigh, I'm truly a beast!!!!!!

Especially when he looked at Tang Ling's thin and pale face, and realized she also had cancer, Tang Chuan was filled with even more regret and self-reproach.

Although her illness was well-controlled and recovering with conservative treatment.

This didn't change the fact that Tang Ling was still sick, and as her brother, not only did he fail to take care of her, but he also repeatedly hurt her...

"Xiao Ling, I'm sorry. As a brother, I'm very incompetent!"

Tang Chuan took a deep breath and apologized sincerely, his tone devoid of past dissatisfaction, only deep guilt.

???

Tang Ling was dumbfounded, looking completely bewildered.

Did the sun rise from the west today? Or did this guy take the wrong medicine?

He actually apologized to me???

Conspiracy, there must be a malicious conspiracy here... Based on the true and false Qianjin novel plots I've been cramming these past few nights...

As soon as this true Qianjin shows a kind attitude, this blind Third Brother will surely immediately put on an ugly face and point at my nose, mockingly saying:

"(￣_,￣) Idiot, you think you're worthy of my apology? I was just playing with you!"

"I'm telling you! My only sister is Xiao Rou, you country bumpkin are not worthy of being my sister!"

...

Tang Ling's mouth twitched. She was 95% certain that the plot would unfold exactly as she imagined.

Therefore, to avoid unnecessarily spoiling her mood, it was better to pretend to be deaf and mute and not respond.

Meanwhile, Tang Chuan was still apologizing profusely, completely unaware that his biological sister was staring at him with what she believed to be all-knowing, wise eyes. (≖ ≖)✧

"Sister, Third Brother was wrong these past few days!"

"You can hit me or scold me, Third Brother will accept it all, I just hope you can forgive Third Brother."

Although he felt very embarrassed.

Tang Chuan's character was still quite opinionated and principled; wrong was wrong, and even if he was deceived, it still didn't change the fact that he had hurt his biological sister.

Whether it was a humble apology or material compensation, it didn't matter. As long as his biological sister could forgive him, Tang Chuan was willing to unconditionally accept all 'punishments'...

"These past few days since you returned to the Tang Family, Third Brother was actually very flustered."

"After all, a 'stranger' with blood relations suddenly appeared in the family! And the sister he had pampered since childhood was suddenly told she had no blood relations..."

"To be honest, Third Brother couldn't accept it at first!"

"Especially with some people intentionally plotting, creating the illusion that your return caused unrest in the household..."

"To be honest, this made Third Brother, who already had little emotional foundation with you, feel even more that your arrival was what made our family turn chaotic in a short time."

"Sigh, I was blind then, completely deceived by Tang Rou's innocent and fragile facade!"

"I was afraid Tang Rou would be hurt by your arrival, and worried you would use your identity as a biological child to bully Tang Rou and snatch everything from her. That's why I always spoke up to protect Tang Rou."

"Of course, now Third Brother knows he was wrong! Some things originally belonged to you, Tang Rou was the one who usurped the magpie's nest, so how can there be any talk of 'snatching'?"

"All of this was Xiao Rou's doing behind the scenes, you were the innocent victim!!!!"

"Third Brother feels guilty! I also know that just apologizing can't make up for the harm I've caused you! After all, if apologies worked, what would we need the police for?"

"You might even think I'm being hypocritical, but even so, Third Brother still wants to say sorry to you here..."

...

Tang Chuan's attitude was sincere, his tone humble, and he bowed 90 degrees in apology.

Ah... this?!

Has this person truly turned over a new leaf? Has he had a complete awakening?

His tone, his expression, his posture, it seems... it appears... perhaps he really is sincerely repenting and asking for her forgiveness?!

Tang Ling was stunned; the turn of events completely exceeded her expectations.

She had thought Tang Chuan was 'playing' with her, but seeing his humble demeanor, it didn't seem quite like it...

Quietly~~~~

Inside the room, there was a dead silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Tang Chuan remained bowed at 90 degrees, motionless, his eyes flickering with nervousness and apprehension.

He wasn't sure if Tang Ling would forgive him, or if she would grab a broom and sweep him out.

After all, late affection is cheaper than grass, and it was only human nature for Tang Ling not to forgive him.

After an unknown amount of time!

Realizing that Tang Chuan was truly apologizing to her, Tang Ling became slightly flustered, subconsciously pursed her lips, and then spoke her true thoughts...

"Third Brother, you... you can raise your head! I... I... I forgive you!"

"To be honest, at first I was really angry with you. I didn't understand why I was your biological sister, yet you always sided with the sister who was swapped?!"

"Later, I reconsidered and gradually let it go. As the saying goes: 'Hearts are made of flesh!'"

"You and Tang Rou lived together for eighteen years; besides blood, you were no different from biological siblings normally."

"And we've only known each other for a few days? I can understand your emotional bias towards Tang Rou! I shouldn't have immediately expected to receive the same treatment as Tang Rou..."

"I originally didn't plan to compete with Tang Rou for anything. As long as I can eat and dress without worry like this, I'm already thankful! People should be content with what they have!"

"So, Third Brother, you don't need to take it to heart! You don't need to feel guilty towards me!"

...

As she spoke, Tang Ling couldn't help but curve her lips into a sweet smile.

The luxurious life she had been living in the Tang Family these days was like a dream, compared to her time in Chu Family Village, this was simply heaven on earth.

It was precisely because she had experienced hell!

Tang Ling cherished the present time even more. Eating well and dressing warmly, she was already incredibly content, only wanting to lie flat and enjoy life every day.

As for scheming against the Fake Heiress and playing out scenes of competing for family affection... Sorry! (.・＿・.)ﾉ I'm sorry~~~~~

She really wasn't interested, wasn't it exhausting?

On the other side.

Listening to his biological sister, who had suffered such great grievances, yet was still thinking of him without a single complaint.

Tang Familys Third Young Master's body trembled, deeply touched from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, he only felt that Tang Ling's body suddenly emitted a golden light, dazzling and moving.

Oh my god ⁽⁽ଘ(ˊᵕˋ)ଓ⁾⁾*~~~~~

Where did this angelic girl come from?! She's too gentle and kind!

He had treated her so badly before, and not only did she not have a single complaint, but she also thought of him in every way... Wuwuwu~~~ My heart aches~~~~~

o(╥﹏╥)o~~~~~

I really was a beast before!!!!!!

He knew that Xiao Ling had suffered abuse from that wicked couple, and her childhood was incredibly miserable... Yet he was still easily provoked by Tang Rou, turning to use harsh words on his biological sister. Wasn't that just stabbing a knife into her heart?!!

If it weren't for Tang Rou's wicked parents, the two children wouldn't have had their lives swapped.

Then today's Xiao Ling would definitely be more confident, generous, and shining than Tang Rou... Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs'... only results...

But fortunately, the future is still long, and he has time to make amends for the mistakes he made during this period...

With this thought, Tang Chuan subconsciously reached out and gently ruffled the girl's small head, his face full of tenderness.

"Sister, from now on, you are the most important biological sister of Tang Familys Third Young Master. I will protect you."

"Third Brother promises you, I will absolutely not let anyone bully you again!"

"Otherwise, let me walk the path of death, and be entangled by other people's biological mothers every time I go out!!!!!!!!"

...

Tang Chuan spoke from the bottom of his heart, suddenly roaring to the sky and solemnly swearing.

Looking at Tang Familys Third Young Master's resolute eyes, Tang Ling's heart uncontrollably welled up with an inexplicable emotion.

When she came back to her senses, her vision was already blurry, her slender eyelashes blinked, and she sniffled, saying:

"Really, really?"

"Really! I, Tang Familys Third Young Master, mean what I say! From now on, you are my most cherished sister!"

"You wouldn't be lying to me, would you? Am I still dreaming? ※=○☆(＿ ＿*)Ｚｚｚ"

...

Tang Ling still felt somewhat unreal, repeatedly confirming.

This confused and adorable side directly amused Tang Chuan.

At this moment, the more he looked at his biological sister, the cuter she seemed (*╹▽╹*), mwah~~~~

He lamented that he had been so foolish before!

Ignoring such a cute sister to pamper, and instead pampering a malicious green tea girl...

Tang Chuan once again touched his biological sister's head and teased:

"Why would I lie to you? Don't worry! It's broad daylight, and you're not dreaming!"

Upon hearing this.

Tang Ling could no longer control her emotions, and the tears that had welled up in her eyes streamed down.

She didn't know what exactly had happened to cause Tang Chuan's personality to change so drastically.

But that wasn't important; what was important was... for the rest of her life, she also had a brother who truly protected her.

She used to envy the girls her age in the village with happy families, envying that they all had parents who doted on them and brothers who pampered them, while she could only watch longingly, her heart filled with bitterness.

She never thought that one day, she would also have a family that truly belonged to her, and experience the warmth of kinship.

So this... is what it feels like to be pampered by family...

[4000 words, to be continued.]

Sorry, I had a fight with my wife tonight, my mood was affected, and I couldn't type.

I'll finish it tomorrow!

As for the reason for the argument, I summarized it: money! And some things from her family's side!

Sigh, I feel like a woman really affects a man's state. Sometimes she makes me so irritable that I can't calm down to work at all.

The most difficult part is that you don't even know why she's angry... And then when she's angry, you try to coax her but she ignores you, it's just cold treatment, she won't reply to a single word out of ten, damn it!!!! I really appreciate this!!!!!!

Every time it makes me grit my teeth and clench my fists until they creak!!!!

And unlike us men, my personality is that if something happened today, it's over, and tomorrow is a happy new day, I immediately forget unpleasant things.

But women might dwell on a small trivial matter, giving you the cold shoulder for several days in a row, I can't understand it, ahhhhh, I'm spitting blood!!!!
