Chapter 2013: He Is Actually the Younger Brother
Xin Ziran said righteously: "I used schemes because I had no other choice! You and I have never stood on equal footing!"
Xin Ziran's righteousness left Wei Yangyang feeling somewhat dazed.
It was as if this world belonged to the weak.
As long as one acts weak, even doing something wrong can be forgiven.
As for the person who was hurt... they just have to accept their bad luck.
In a daze, Wei Yangyang raised her eyes.
She looked at the indignant Xin Ziran and suddenly felt that this person...
Was truly disgusting!
Li Xingyan, however, was calm; he retorted: "Since you know it's unequal, why must you compete with me?"
"Because I refuse to accept it! Why can't you be the weak one!?"
"You are so contradictory; you don't want to be the weak one yourself, yet you want others to act weak toward you?"
"This isn't a contradiction, it's that the tides have turned, and it's time for you to taste the bitterness of failure!"
"But who is the one failing right now?"
Li Xingyan's words made Xin Ziran's expression change.
His breathing grew more rapid, and his palms were clenched tightly.
Wei Yangyang felt that continuing to stay and communicate was a waste of time, so she said to Li Xingyan: "There's no point in saying more, he won't acknowledge you."
Hearing Wei Yangyang speak, Xin Ziran's gaze shifted bit by bit toward her.
Then, Xin Ziran sneered: "You think just because Li Xingyan shows concern for you, he's a good person?"
"Whether he is a good person or not, I know better than you!"
"No, you don't! To achieve his goals, he can stop at nothing!"
"Then tell me, how did he stop at nothing?"
Wei Yangyang was prepared to let Xin Ziran state his reasons so that she could sternly refute him.
But Xin Ziran's expression was dazed.
After a while, his eyes slowly found their focus.
Then, Xin Ziran said with grief and indignation: "To win, Li Xingyan deliberately used my brother's safety to distract me, making me unable to focus on the competition!"
Wei Yangyang did not know about the matter Xin Ziran spoke of.
She turned her head to look at Li Xingyan and used her eyes to ask what was going on.
Li Xingyan looked straight at Xin Ziran and asked indifferently: "Your brother?"
"Ha, are you trying to say you don't remember my brother? Then let me help you recall!"
The sound of Xin Ziran's voice became increasingly sharp.
He stared fixedly at Li Xingyan and said: "The day I competed against you, you had people harass my brother, causing him to faint! After I got the news, I was so anxious that I lost my footing and lost the competition!"
Li Xingyan had long since forgotten the competition that Xin Ziran kept dwelling on.
It was only after he communicated with Su Kexuan that he barely remembered an incident from many years ago.
At that time, he and classmates like Su Kexuan went abroad for a study tour.
They then held a mathematical model construction competition with students from a local prestigious school.
Li Xingyan led his team members to overcome obstacles and win three games in a row.
By the final match, the other side brought in a very formidable senior student.
The senior originally had matters at home and had asked for leave.
He was specially invited by the school leadership, who hoped he could help the school win back some face.
But in the end, they still lost.
Ending his recollection, Li Xingyan said firmly to Xin Ziran: "I did not have anyone harass your brother."
"Ha, at a time like this, you still won't admit it!"
"Why would I admit to something I didn't do? My people did indeed look for your brother, but that was to help him, not to harass him!"
Xin Ziran sneered; clearly, he did not believe Li Xingyan's words.
Li Xingyan continued leisurely: "At the time, I was having some trouble adjusting to the environment, and my bodyguard went to the Hospital to get medicine for me. But because of a clerical error, the nurse sent the medicine that should have been mine to your brother, and my people were looking for the medicine."
"Stop making things up, who goes to retrieve medicine looking fierce and menacing?!"
"Taking the wrong medicine can be life-threatening! My bodyguard was anxious, and when he found your brother, he couldn't care about much else and directly snatched the medicine he was about to take."
The scene at the time was said to be very chaotic.
Xin Ziran's brother was even scared into fainting.
But Li Xingyan felt that since it was a misunderstanding, it should be fine once explained clearly.
Yet looking at Xin Ziran's reaction... he had actually misunderstood for so long.
Li Xingyan couldn't help but lightly knit his brows and ask: "Why didn't you ask your brother?"
"He was scared unconscious, and when he woke up, he didn't know anything."
"And no one else explained it to you?"
"No."
This... shouldn't be.
Li Xingyan's brows furrowed a bit deeper.
Then, he questioned Xin Ziran: "You didn't even ask clearly before pinning the blame on me; don't you think that's too childish?"
Xin Ziran turned his head to the side and snorted coldly: "So much time has passed, you can say whatever you want!"
"I don't have the ability to turn black into white."
Li Xingyan suddenly thought of something and asked, "Right, the Hospital staff gave the family a status report and an apology letter, two copies in total. I received mine, what about yours?"
An apology letter?
Xin Ziran was suddenly stunned.
From his reaction, Li Xingyan speculated, "You... didn't know about that letter at all?"
Xin Ziran did not know.
If someone had delivered it, he would have known.
Unless...
Xin Ziran did not know what he had thought of either.
But he would not accept it, shaking his head vigorously.
Afterwards, Xin Ziran roared at Li Xingyan: "You made all of this up!"
Li Xingyan suddenly felt a bit weary.
He shook his head and muttered: "I have witnesses, I have physical evidence, yet you don't believe any of it. You really are just too inexplicable."
Wei Yangyang snorted from the side: "I told you, you can't communicate with a person like this."
Hearing the two of them, Xin Ziran opened his mouth to retort.
But... because his emotions were too agitated, his chest was hurting more and more.
Xin Ziran's face turned deathly pale, and he supported his chest with one hand.
It was clear that he was in great pain.
However, just as Xin Ziran was about to faint, Li Xingyan fished a bottle of medicine out of his pocket.
Then he shoved a pill into Xin Ziran's mouth.
Xin Ziran dared not move recklessly; he leaned against the wall and breathed slowly.
About a quarter of an hour later, Xin Ziran's complexion was no longer deathly pale.
He wearily raised his eyes and looked at Li Xingyan with a complex expression.
Wei Yangyang had been frightened by the scene just now.
For a moment, she really thought Xin Ziran would...
Now, Xin Ziran's complexion had recovered a little.
But it still looked abnormal.
Wei Yangyang then asked Li Xingyan: "Should we send him to the Hospital?"
"No need, he'll be fine if he takes his medicine in time."
Li Xingyan's response was very certain.
But he wasn't a doctor, so why was his attitude so firm?
Wei Yangyang rolled her eyes and muttered: "I feel like you seem to understand his illness very well."
"To be precise, I understand Xin Ziyou's illness."
Upon hearing this sentence, the person opposite him turned deathly pale!
Li Xingyan looked at the other person calmly and said: "I should call you Xin Ziyou, right?"
