I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 210 So you'll have to squeeze in with me then.

"Holy crap! Pan Shi! You know him? Really?"

The other person immediately grabbed the shoulder of the boy named Pan Shi and whispered a shout, looking extremely excited, his eyes almost red.

After all, his good buddy knew such a beautiful woman, and he didn't even know? Who could stand that?

Zhou Heng and the others were also stunned, standing there, a sudden chill running down their spines.

Zhou Heng turned to look at Yin Mengran, who, after a brief moment of stunned silence, lowered her head and replied calmly:

"No, you've mistaken me for someone else."

Yin Mengran's answer only made Zhou Heng and the others more puzzled.

Why deny it? Does that mean she still knows this guy?

Pan Shi paused slightly, then chuckled and said:

"I understand why you don't want to admit it, but does it have to be this heartless? We're practically family, aren't we?"

"Pah! Who says we're family? Shameless!"

These words seemed to ignite Yin Mengran, who raised her head and cursed, appearing extremely agitated.

Liao Haomiao and Zhu Tao, who were standing nearby, were both startled. It was the first time they had ever seen Yin Mengran like this. What was going on?

Liao Haomiao lowered his voice and whispered in Zhu Tao's ear, "What's up with this guy? Could he be... Yin Mengran's ex-boyfriend?"

Zhu Tao frowned, shook her head, and denied it:

"Impossible! Yin Mengran's first love was Zhou Heng, how could she possibly have an ex-boyfriend?"

Zhou Heng was also very puzzled at this point and asked, "You know him? Who exactly is he?"

Pan Shi crossed his arms, raised his chin smugly, grinned, and shouted:

"I'm her brother!"

"?!"

Zhou Heng's eyes widened instantly, his mature and composed face turning ashen in a flash...

He wasn't particularly surprised when he met Yin Mengran's aunt before, but he had never heard that Yin Mengran had an older brother.

Yin Mengran pointed at Pan Shi and angrily shouted, "Get out! Have you no shame? We're not even related by blood. How dare you say you're my brother?"

"What? My dad is your dad too, isn't he? What did I say wrong?"

"You...you're just being unreasonable!"

At this point, Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi seemed to understand, and also seemed to know the person's identity...

It should be... this guy's biological father is Yin Mengran's stepfather, that should be the relationship, right?

Previously, when they went out for hot pot together, they encountered a woman who made Yin Mengran cry, and was eventually kicked out by Zhou Heng's mother.

It was said at the time that the person was Yin Mengran's father's ex-wife...

So, this guy must be that woman's son, right?

It was indeed mentioned at the time that he had a son with his ex-wife. After Yin Mengran's parents died,

His ex-wife and their son came and took the house, leaving Yin Mengran homeless...

Is this the guy in front of me?

Saying he's Yin Mengran's brother is both right and wrong.

Given this relationship, since they share the same father, it's not a problem for Yin Mengran to call him "brother."

However, the two of them are indeed not related by blood, so calling him her brother is a bit of a stretch.

"What's going on...? Isn't it a little inappropriate for us to be listening in like this..."

"I feel the same way. Let's go for a walk first. It'll only make things more awkward if we stay here."

Liao Haomiao and Zhu Tao whispered something to each other, then sneaked away.

They were trying to protect Yin Mengran's feelings, so they avoided listening to these things, afraid of embarrassing her...

However, although the two of them didn't intend to listen, out of consideration for Yin Mengran's feelings,

But there are two people who now desperately want to hear every single word...

"What did they say? What did they say?"

"It sounds like they're saying something about dad... your dad, my dad, ugh, I can't hear them..."

At this moment, Yu Lingxue and Bai Cang were hiding behind a tree.

Bai Cang held binoculars in one hand and something resembling a megaphone in the other, pressing them to his ear as he tried to hear the conversation of several people in the distance.

But only a few words could be heard, while Yu Lingxue squatted there, writing them down in a notebook.

"Get out of here! I can read lips!"

Yu Lingxue stood up and snatched the binoculars from Bai Cang's hand.

Bai Cang, meanwhile, held a pen and notebook, preparing to record what Yu Lingxue had conveyed.

"What...what else do you want...you've...driven me to the brink..."

As Yu Lingxue spoke, Bai Cang took notes, the two working together seamlessly.

"I never expected this story! This is a golden opportunity! Helping Yin Mengran resolve her pain will surely win Zhou Heng's favor, won't it?"

Bai Cang wrote furiously, his eyes shining, looking extremely excited.

But as she was writing, Yu Lingxue suddenly fell silent...

"Huh? What's wrong? Tell me! Aren't you good at lip reading? Who's speaking now?"

Yu Lingxue stared through the binoculars, pursed her lips, swallowed hard, and said:

"Zhou Heng... he's swearing right now, so let's not remember it..."

"Oh well..."

After Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi learned of Pan Shi's identity, they no longer held back their politeness.

They were afraid that Pan Shi would be just like his annoying mother, making Yin Mengran cry again.

So the two of them stood up directly and confronted Pan Shi, not giving him a chance to bully Yin Mengran.

Pan Shi remained calm under pressure, letting Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi say whatever they wanted without any change in expression.

The guy next to him couldn't stand it anymore and would occasionally say a few words to argue back, defending his good friend.

"Oh dear, I didn't know your situation! You should have said so earlier! I'm your brother, of course I'd help you!"

Pan Shi spread his hands, shook his head, and looked sympathetic, no matter how well he acted.

In Yin Mengran's eyes, those were blatant taunts, which sounded both infuriating and disgusting.

"How about this, you should move back home as soon as possible! Home is the best place, don't you think? But, as you know, there are only two bedrooms. My mom lives in the master bedroom, and I'll live in your old room, so you'll have to squeeze in with me."

Pan Shi smiled slightly and said softly.

"You f***ing..."

Zhou Heng was so angry that he instinctively raised his hand to give him a good beating.

Should I squeeze in with him? I've been sleeping with Yin Mengran for so long already, and I've only managed to hold back because of my strong willpower.

This guy isn't even related to Yin Mengran by blood; everyone knows what he's up to.

In an instant, Yu Lingxue, hidden in the shadows, immediately threw away her binoculars and prepared to rush out: "They're about to make their move! Move quickly!"

Bai Cang understood immediately and nodded:

"Alright! Protect the targets. Zhou Heng is first, then Yin Mengran. Ignore Tang Zhi!"
