"So what do you want to talk about?" Tang Beixuan asked her. "Is this about Qin Jiran?"

  How can he not notice the sudden change between his sister and the mysterious author he idolized. The man used to live in his sister's guesthouse, but now, Qin Jiran was also living here in the main house with his sister and the little buns.

  His eyes caught the diamond ring on his sister's hand.

  "He proposed to you? You are engaged?" Tang Beixuan couldn't think of any logical reason why Qin Jiran was living here, unless the relationship between the two had leveled up.

  Tang Moyu shook her head and leaned against the windowsill of her study.

  "No, Beixuan. We are married." She dropped the bomb on her little brother.

  Tang Beixuan opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out as he was too shocked by his sister's confession. Why would she marry Qin Jiran in haste? Did something happen that he wasn't aware of?

  He heard from their old housekeeper that Yun Zhen had come to Tang Estate weeks ago to ask for her hand in marriage, but Tang Beixuan refused to believe it.

  "But why? You didn't need to get married if you wanted to avoid marrying Yun Zhen or any other man Grandpa arranged for you to marry."

  Just remembering how Feng Tianhua treated his sister badly was enough for Tang Beixuan's blood to boil in rage. Feng Tianhua was lucky he hadn't met him yet, because Tang Beixuan would not miss his chance to let the man get a taste of his fists.

  However, he also knew his sister would not make such a decision if she hadn't considered the consequences of her actions. Since the twins took a liking to Qin Jiran, and Tang Beixuan could see how much the man adored his sister, he supposed he was in no position to question his sister's decision to get married.

  "Fine. If Qin Jiran can make you happy, so be it." He scratched his head and sighed. Even if he wanted to object to his sister's marriage, he didn't want to cause trouble to her and her family.

  "That's not all, Beixuan." Tang Moyu eyed him seriously.

  "Then what else do I need to know?" Tang Beixuan asked again. He didn't understand why his sister looked worried. "Is this about me and Meili? We are doing just fine, Sis. Don't worry too much about us."

  The empress crossed her arms over her c.h.e.s.t and looked out the window. The sky was clear and blue, deceiving the citizens of Shenzhen that it would be a bright and warm day.?Morning these days were sunny and a little hot, but when afternoon came, heavy rainfall followed.

  "My husband…" She hesitated, refusing to meet her brother's questioning gaze.

  "What about Qin Jiran?" Tang Beixuan frowned.

  Was he sick? Didn't Li Meili tell him that the man was recovering well and would be able to finish his physiotherapy soon?

  This time, Tang Moyu forced herself to meet his gaze.

  "Beixuan, I don't want you to misunderstand, that's why I'm telling you this myself." She started. "My husband's real name is Feng Tianyi. I hope I don't need to explain who he is."

  For the second time that day, Tang Beixuan found himself speechless. Just as he thought he had heard enough surprises, nothing prepared him for his sister's final blow. He hadn't anticipated this revelation at all.

  Qin Jiran was Feng Tianyi? Tang Beixuan couldn't believe it, but why would his sister marry the brother of the man who she was supposed to marry years ago? Was this her way of seeking revenge on Feng Tianhua? Or did this Feng Tianyi intend to use his sister instead?

  Tang Beixuan's face darkened. He wasn't able to protect his big sis years ago, but that didn't mean he wouldn't be able to do anything this time.

  As if knowing what he was thinking right then, Tang Moyu spoke in a clear, decisive voice.

  "He didn't force me into this, Beixuan. In fact, I was the one who asked him to marry me."

  "But why would you?" Tang Beixuan couldn't help but ask. Shouldn't she be staying away from that family? If not for the Feng family, his sister wouldn't have suffered five years ago.

  "Because I want to. Because my children love him. And Beixuan, Tianyi is actually the twin's father." Tang Moyi replied and paused.?Tang Beixuan hesitated to respond, but he let out a sigh and said, "I know, Qin Jiran told me not so long ago."

  Tang Moyu was surprised and a little relieved that her brother didn't seem to have any negative reaction at the last piece of news. Apparently, Feng Tianyi had saved her the trouble to explain more to this little brother of hers.

  "I love him, Beixuan. I hope you understand why I'm willing to compromise, despite what happened in the past. I'm happy with him. I hope you can accept it in your heart to give him a chance to prove himself. Regardless whether we are or aren't blood-related, Beixuan, you are still my brother. "

  Since his sister put it that way, how could Tang Beixuan deny her? His sister had openly supported his relationship with Li Meili, so why couldn't he do it for her and Feng Tianyi?

  He didn't want to become a jerk and force the two of them to break up. He also didn't want the little buns to hate him by doing such a devious thing to their parents.

  Running both of his hands over his face, Tang Beixuan sighed and shut his eyes close. What his sister said was right. He shouldn't redirect his anger and hatred on Feng Tianyi just because the man he hated the most was his younger brother.

  "Fine. Since you have decided to be with him. So be it." He finally conceded, knowing that in his heart, he only wanted to see his older sister happy and content.
