Thus, the dinner ended in displeasure.

Afterward, they signed the contract, borrowed fifteen billion, and each went their own way, returning to their respective homes.

On the car ride, Zhou Jiajia couldn't hold back anymore and asked, "An Qi, tell me the truth, do you like Yifan?"

"Him? The lecher? How could I possibly like him?" An Qi answered evasively, extremely nervous inside.

She had been on tenterhooks earlier and didn't expect to be questioned.

Just as nervous was Yifan, who was driving; at that moment, he truly feared that Jiajia, upon learning the truth, would fly into a rage or worse, become despondent and do something foolish.

"An Qi, you can't deny it anymore, your expression has already betrayed you!" Zhou Jiajia retorted with a heavy heart.

Ever since An Qi returned from the island, she felt something was off, always feeling that An Qi was hiding something from her; and to think that it was this matter, it truly devastated her.

Now, recalling that night's conversation, she finally understood why An Qi had asked those questions. It turned out An Qi had feelings for Lin Yifan for a while but didn't speak up due to certain reasons.

"Two women serving one husband, so An Qi wants to share Lin Yifan with me." Zhou Jiajia hadn't expected such a large intent behind an ordinary conversation, which really unsettled her.

"Ah! Can I never escape this?" An Qi sighed internally.

She had wanted to settle the debt, withdraw from her engagement with Zhao Family, and then confess this to Zhou Jiajia; unexpectedly, she was exposed so soon, completely catching her off guard.

"What's to come will come; what's to be faced must be faced; as they say, if it's not misfortune, it can't be avoided, I'll fight it."

With newfound courage, An Qi confessed, "Jiajia, I'm sorry, I've fallen for that lecher!"

"Ah! An Qi, how could you like him? He's your Jiajia's boyfriend!" Zhou Jiajia had countless sighs in her heart, completely helpless.

She had thought An Qi would make up some excuse to argue, but instead, she confessed it genuinely, leaving her without a single comforting rationale.

Meanwhile, hearing An Qi's frank words, Lin Yifan was shocked; he hadn't expected that the girl would dare to reveal this in front of Zhou Jiajia, which made him admire her courage and also feel extremely anxious.

"Jiajia, there's nothing I can do; love isn't something I can control," An Qi answered with an innocent face.

She didn't want to like Lin Yifan, but sometimes it was beyond her control. She found herself helplessly recalling the good times with Lin Yifan, the moments they had shared, and imagining a loving life with him.

"So what do we do now? Will you leave, or shall I?" Zhou Jiajia pressed.

The torture of two sisters loving the same man was unmatched.

"Jiajia, don't leave, I will leave myself!" An Qi replied, her face full of aggrievance.

She had never seen Zhou Jiajia so fierce before; this was the first time, genuinely the first time. She feared that the sisters would turn against each other, so she had to make the painful decision to step back.

"Can you really leave?" Zhou Jiajia questioned, feeling that An Qi's response was just self-deception; she couldn't truly leave, otherwise, she would have left long ago.

"I will try my best," An Qi replied, her head lowered, her heart also lacking confidence; for her heart already belonged to Lin Yifan.

Seeing An Qi in distress, Zhou Jiajia already knew the answer; she then calmed herself and asked, "When did you start liking Yifan?"

"From the second time he saved me," An Qi muttered in response.

"So, before I met Yifan?" Zhou Jiajia was stunned, not realizing that An Qi had liked Lin Yifan for so long. How had she not noticed?

"Yes!" An Qi nodded, answering the question. There was no need to hide this fact, as it was indeed true.

"Then why didn't you confess to him earlier?" Zhou Jiajia continued to inquire.

If An Qi had confessed, she certainly wouldn't have confessed to Lin Yifan. Then, they wouldn't be in this awkward situation now.

"Back then, I was burdened with the task of rescuing the company. I was focused on getting the company back on track and didn't consider personal matters much. Besides, there was another important reason, which was that I was involved in a contractual marriage with the Zhao Family. I was afraid that if I confessed and then couldn't fulfill my promise later, it would hurt Yifan. So, I never confessed. At that time, I planned to first repay the fifty billion I owed the Zhao Family, cancel the marriage arrangement, and then confess to Yifan. But then, Jiajia..." An Qi couldn't continue, fearing Zhou Jiajia would blame her; in fact, this was where she felt aggrieved.

She had liked Lin Yifan first, but unexpectedly, her "sister" had gotten there first, taking possession of him. Now, looking back, she deeply regretted it.

"So, you're saying I'm the third party, huh? I ruined your love, huh?" Zhou Jiajia laughed coldly, finding it utterly absurd.

She was officially Lin Yifan's girlfriend, yet in An Qi's eyes, she had become a third party who stole someone else's love, which was absolutely speechless.

"Jiajia, that's not what I mean!" An Qi quickly explained, not wanting Zhou Jiajia to misunderstand.

Actually, she said all this only to convey one thing, that she liked Lin Yifan.

"Then what do you mean?" Zhou Jiajia questioned. She wanted to hear how her dearly loved "sister" would explain this.

"I don't blame anyone for the love I missed out on. If Jiajia and Yifan can be happy together, I will sincerely wish you happiness," An Qi answered, her eyes filled with tears, and her heart feeling as if it were being cut with a knife.

With those words, her heart was bleeding, because it was like giving up a lifetime's happiness.

Seeing this seemingly strong but inwardly soft "sister," Zhou Jiajia's heart softened. How could she blame An Qi? If there hadn't been that marriage contract, perhaps she would've been the one heartbroken. Putting herself in her shoes, she knew she too wouldn't be able to let go of Lin Yifan and would willingly be the other woman; after all, it was her true love, not something you can simply let go of.

However, in this love triangle, someone had to leave; because Lin Yifan could only love one, could only have one wife.

After a moment, she seemed to have made a decision. Thus, she embraced An Qi, continuously stroking her head while crying out, "Silly sister, why are you so foolish? It's I who ruined your love, I'll leave!"

"No! Jiajia, it's I who ruined your love, I'll leave!" An Qi countered.

At that moment, the tears she had been holding back finally began to fall uncontrollably.

Zhou Jiajia's great love touched her immensely; therefore, how could she bear to steal the love of her dearly beloved big sister?

"I'll leave!"

"I'll leave!"

.....

The two pushed back and forth, tirelessly.

At this time, Lin Yifan went crazy, then suddenly slammed on the brakes and yelled, "Neither of you are going anywhere!"
