Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 454: Carl Is Actually Lin Yue
Zhan Hanjue’s face darkened, his gaze turning icy as he issued a warning to Carl in a low voice, "Mr. Carl, watch your words."
Carl, however, smiled and said, "I invested in this project because of her. Mr. Zhan asked me, and of course, I’m telling the truth. There’s nothing to hide."
Ye Ningwan stopped Zhan Hanjue, who was about to lose his temper, and asked Carl, "Do we know each other?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Carl looked at her and sighed, "It seems you really don’t remember me."
"Do we really know each other?" Ye Ningwan frowned, but she still couldn’t recall where she had seen him, so she said, "Could you give me a hint on where we met? Or, did I save you?"
Being willing to invest in a project that isn’t highly regarded, it’s likely out of gratitude!
But she had healed many people and really couldn’t remember saving him.
"Sister, do you really not remember me?" Carl asked sorrowfully.
Sister?
Ye Ningwan frowned, quickly turning to look at Zhan Hanjue.
Zhan Hanjue also knitted his brows, looking at Carl thoughtfully.
"Are you Lin Yue?"
Finally, Zhan Hanjue thought of someone and asked in surprise.
Ye Ningwan’s eyes widened in shock.
"Lin Yue?"
This face slowly overlapped with Lin Yue’s face.
That young boy from back then had turned into a handsome man now.
The features indeed had many similarities.
Could he really be Lin Yue?
"Sister, long time no see." Lin Yue stepped forward and hugged Ye Ningwan tightly.
Ye Ningwan felt a bit awkward but quickly extended her hand and gently patted his back.
"Lin Yue, I didn’t expect it to be you. All these years, you never agreed to video chat or meet with me, so I thought you had long forgotten about me, your sister."
Zhan Hanjue stood by with deep eyes, knowing that Carl was indeed Lin Yue, Ye Ningwan’s little brother from the past.
However, watching the now tall and sturdy Lin Yue hugging Ye Ningwan made him feel uncomfortable, a certain awkward feeling he couldn’t shake off.
But he didn’t stop them.
If he’s Lin Yue, he really shouldn’t be so petty.
"Because I wanted to give you a surprise, to let you see what I look like now," Lin Yue said.
Ye Ningwan pushed him away, looking him up and down, said, "You really surprised me. That underdeveloped little child back then actually turned into this now."
"Are you satisfied, Sister?" Lin Yue asked with a smile.
Ye Ningwan nodded, "Of course, I’m very satisfied. If Ye Shao sees what you look like now, he would also be very happy. You haven’t seen Ye Shao yet, right? He’s in the entertainment industry now and seems to have taken up a role in a movie, currently filming. If you have time, you should go see him."
"Yes, I will go visit Ye Shao. Sister, we haven’t seen each other for so long. I have so much to say. Can I stay at your place tonight?" Lin Yue asked with hopeful eyes.
Perhaps realizing this was something to check with Zhan Hanjue as well.
So, he quickly asked Zhan Hanjue, "Mr. Zhan, is that okay?"
His way of addressing left Zhan Hanjue slightly uncomfortable; given he called Ye Ningwan sister, he should call him brother-in-law like Ye Shao does.
Why still call him Mr. Zhan, so distant?
Nonetheless, he didn’t make a petty complaint, nodded, and putting an arm around Ye Ningwan’s shoulders, said, "Of course, you’re very welcome."
Lin Yue chuckled.
However, his gaze fell on Zhan Hanjue’s hand resting on Ye Ningwan’s shoulder, a flicker of some deep meaning passing through his eyes.
The three of them walked out together, only to find Wan Tianning still there, waiting outside for Lin Yue.
Seeing Lin Yue walk out with Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue, chatting and laughing.
Especially with Ye Ningwan, Lin Yue’s eyes were full of indescribable joy, which was impossible to hide.
She bit her lip and walked over swiftly.
"Mr. Carl."
Lin Yue stopped in his tracks, watching Wan Tianning come over.
Ye Ningwan said to Lin Yue, "We’ll wait for you in the car."
Lin Yue opened his mouth to say something, but Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue had already left.
"Miss Wan, is there something you need?" Lin Yue could only inquire.
Wan Tianning smiled, looking at him, said, "Mr. Carl, I appreciate your warm hospitality abroad. Now that you’re in Jiangcheng, I should show hospitality in return, inviting you for a meal. I wonder if you could leave a contact so I can reach you when you’re available."
"Miss Wan, you’re too kind. However, I didn’t return to Jiangcheng as a guest but as a return to my roots. So, there’s no need for such hospitality; Jiangcheng is actually my hometown too," Lin Yue said.
Wan Tianning appeared surprised, "Mr. Carl is from Jiangcheng?"
"I also have another name, Lin Yue," Lin Yue said.
However, Wan Tianning didn’t know who Lin Yue was, only thinking that the name sounded nice, just like the person.
Lin Yue smiled and reminded her, "I heard you and Ye Shao are at the same film company. You can ask Ye Shao about me. Oh, I forgot to tell you, Ye Shao is my brother."
Wan Tianning: "..."
"Ye Shao is your brother, so Ye Ningwan is your sister?" She was so shocked her heart nearly leapt out.
Could it be this cliché?
Lovers turned siblings?
But faced with her curious shock, Lin Yue just smiled and didn’t respond, leaving instead.
Wan Tianning turned around, watching Lin Yue’s back with discontent.
What exactly is their relationship? Why couldn’t he just tell her?
No, she needs to find Ye Shao and get to the bottom of this.
Meanwhile, Ye Ningwan and Zhan Hanjue had already gotten into the car.
But after getting in, Zhan Hanjue had the driver step out.
"What’s on your mind? Is there something you want to tell me?" Ye Ningwan asked.
Zhan Hanjue nodded, "Lin Yue came back so suddenly, and in such a way, I feel something is amiss."
"What could be amiss? He said he wanted to surprise us, and I didn’t expect him to be Lin Yue. He looks so different now, but then again, when he left, he was still so young, an undernourished youth. Now he’s grown up, so it’s normal he looks different. But how come you didn’t know he’s actually the boss of Y Group? Is it a big deal?" Ye Ningwan asked curiously.
Zhan Hanjue nodded, "Y Group is a corporation that rose quickly in the past two years, rapidly expanding and venturing into various sectors. However, the owner has always been a mystery, with no one knowing whether they are male or female. But I truly didn’t expect it to be Lin Yue. The Lin Group has always been managed by someone appointed by Lin Yue. I had returned the Lin Group to Lin Yue four years ago. But he stayed abroad studying and didn’t return. I thought he wasn’t interested in business, so I let Chen Qi manage it. Chen Qi has been doing a good job, keeping it stable even though he didn’t expand it. I really don’t understand. With Lin Yue’s capabilities, why doesn’t he return to manage the Lin Group himself? Why deliberately hide his identity?"
