So was she really going to say it?

Bai Ran was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to respond.

“Tell me, why aren’t you talking? Sister-in-law, I’ve always treated you as my biological sister, but I didn’t expect you to treat me like this! Why did you lie to me? Why can’t we be honest with each other?” Chen Lin’s eyes were filled with tears as she felt aggrieved.

Bai Ran sighed and was very helpless. Instead of hiding it like this, she might as well tell the truth.

“Lin Lin, I’m going to tell you the truth. Don’t be angry,” Bai Ran said awkwardly as she touched the corner of her shirt. “Actually, it was because my legs were inconvenient last time. President Huo came over to cook for me. At that time, he accidentally took off his tie. After he left, I realized that he didn’t take it away. I wanted to give it to him, but I never got the chance, so I put it in the closet!”

Chen Lin looked at her in disbelief. She knew her sister-in-law well. She was indeed a person who did not like to lie.

However, her heart was in a mess. How could she trust anyone else’s words so easily? “Sister Bai Ran, don’t lie to me! It’s not that I can’t accept the two of you being together. I just don’t understand. Why are you still mocking me when the two of you are already together? I admit that I lost. I can’t compare to you. Is this making you very happy?” Chen Lin was still furious. Although she said this, she was actually very unsure.

She even hoped that Bai Ran would retort.

“Lin Lin, when have I ever lied to you? If I say we’re not together, then we’re not! Even the last time he came to my door, he took matters into his own hands. If I had known in advance, I wouldn’t have let him come at all!” Bai Ran began to be serious.

She did not like to lie. Furthermore, in terms of relationship, she could not stand others framing her.

Seeing her serious expression, Chen Lin stopped talking. After a while, she asked carefully, “Really?”

“Yes.” Bai Ran nodded seriously.

The loneliness in Chen Lin’s eyes decreased a little, but her mood was clearly not as good as before.

She knew that Huo Tian liked her Sister-in-law, but she did not know that he could do much more for her than she thought.

In Chen Lin’s heart, Huo Tian would always be that high and mighty domineering CEO. He was cold, arrogant, and otherworldly.

However, Bai Ran was always an exception. Was this how a man was to his true love?

Chen Lin only felt that the food was tasteless. Why was she still eating? The world was no longer fragrant to her.

Looking at her unhappy expression, Bai Ran said, “Lin Lin, I’m serious. If you like him, fight for him! Don’t think too much about him coming to look for me. I’ve already made things clear to him. He only treats me as a good friend now. It’s impossible between us. You don’t have to mind my existence. Please believe in yourself. You’re so beautiful and cute. Huo Tian will be moved sooner or later.”

Looking at Bai Ran’s sincere expression, Chen Lin could not say anything.

“I understand, Sister Bai Ran. Thank you. I’m not feeling well, so I’ll make a move first. I’ll think about your words!” Chen Lin felt really uncomfortable and bade farewell.

“Alright, I won’t force you to stay. Think about it carefully!” Bai Ran could only respond with a smile.

Bai Ran knew that from her standpoint, it was useless to say anything. It would be bad if she said anything else. Chen Lin had to think about this herself.

Chen Lin put on her clothes and left with a gloomy expression.

Outside, she paced slowly, feeling like she had nowhere to go.

She had originally come to persuade her on behalf of her brother, but in the end, not only did she not persuade her, but she also lost.

Huo Tian was so beautiful, mature, stable, generous, and magnanimous. The charm of his every move made her, a young girl who had never experienced anything, fall head over heels for him.

However, in his eyes, she seemed to always be that little girl who could not grow up. He would never look at her.

She did not return home until past eleven. “How is it? Did she see you?” As soon as the door was opened, Chen Chen jumped out and pulled Chen Lin along.

“Oh, brother, you scared me to death!” Chen Lin had boasted beforehand, but she did not complete the mission. She felt a little guilty and walked to the sofa alone. She took off her bag and complained. “Tell me quickly. Did she agree to see you?” Chen Chen looked impatient.

Chen Lin glanced at him and said unhappily, “I don’t have a grudge with her. Why wouldn’t she see me?”
