Because Jono caught a chill outside, when he returned to Jin Mansion, although Qiao Chen was also there, he needed to take a hot shower; otherwise, he would definitely catch a cold.
Thus, only Qiao Chen and Jin Chengyan remained in the living room.
"I don't like you being with my sister." After Jin Chengyan brought a cup of warm water to Qiao Chen, the eighteen-year-old boy said this very seriously to the man who was ruthless in the business world.
When Qiao Chen first saw Jin Chengyan, she thought this man seemed particularly unfriendly and absolutely unsuitable to be a husband.
"Even if you don't like it, I'm still with your sister," Jin Chengyan replied, unfazed by Qiao Chen's rudeness. At his age, he had been even more arrogant than Qiao Chen.
Qiao Chen felt somewhat defeated by Jin Chengyan's words. Looking at the calm expression on Jin Chengyan's face, it seemed that no matter how unreasonable he acted, this person would not show any emotional fluctuations.
Qiao Chen suddenly felt a sense of frustration.
"But you have other women. Anyone who can be my sister's husband must be loyal to her; otherwise, I won't let any man who harms her go!"
Jin Chengyan remained unconcerned, lounging comfortably on the sofa. "Then tell me, how do you plan to not let any man who harms her go?"
Qiao Chen was momentarily at a loss for words by Jin Chengyan's question.
"Qiao Chen, some things can't be solved with fists," Jin Chengyan said pointedly.
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Qiao Chen's youthful face.
"As for your plan to confront Shen Fengye, do you really think someone with his temperament would back down? What you're doing will only bring unnecessary trouble to your sister."
He knows everything!
"You—investigated me!" Qiao Chen exclaimed angrily. How could Jin Chengyan do this?
"If I hadn't sent someone to follow you, do you think you would be standing here safely right now? Or would it be your sister visiting you in prison?"
Indeed, he knew it all!
The night before their father's funeral, Qiao Chen overheard his sister talking to Shen Fengye and learned that Shen Fengye had avoided them after their family's bankruptcy because he was cheating with Ni Yue.
His sister had kept this from him, bearing all the pain alone!
Feeling heartbroken for his sister, Qiao Chen sought out Shen Fengye after Huo Yawen and Jono dropped him off at school that day.
He put a sack over Shen Fengye's head and beat him up!
However, Shen Fengye still recognized that it was Qiao Chen.
He had once caused trouble for Qiao Chen but hadn’t seen him since that one time.
Qiao Chen thought Shen Fengye was just feeling guilty, so he didn’t take it to heart.
Little did he know, Jin Chengyan had a hand in this matter.
"You..." Qiao Chen felt a bit flustered; he had no idea how much Jin Chengyan actually knew!
"Don't worry, I didn't tell your sister. She doesn't need to know about such distressing matters," Jin Chengyan reassured him, still concerned about the young man. However, he was a bit too emotional and somewhat reckless.
If he really wanted to teach someone a lesson, just putting a sack over their head wouldn't suffice. Merely keeping Shen Fengye in the hospital for a week was not enough to quench his resentment.
It would be hard to resolve his deep-seated hatred without ensuring that Shen Fengye suffered significantly—perhaps a year or more in the hospital would be more fitting.
Of course, Jin Chengyan didn’t share these thoughts with Qiao Chen; he couldn't lead a young person astray.
"So, fists won't solve the problem. Only when you become strong enough will those people bow at your feet. At that time, you can look down on them with disdain," Jin Chengyan stated, outlining his survival philosophy.
He had always stood on the shoulders of giants, starting from a higher point than others, already possessing the capital to look down on them.
The young Qiao Chen listened to the advice of this man at the pinnacle of success and seemed to grasp some of its meaning.
To resolve his inner turmoil, using fists was not the answer.
"But he hurt my sister! If I don't do something, I won't deserve to be her brother!"
"If you end up in jail for hitting Shen Fengye, won't your sister worry about you? Young man, are you seeking revenge for yourself or trying to help your sister?" Jin Chengyan's words were infuriating.
Qiao Chen stood up, glaring at Jin Chengyan.
"I spoke to your heart, so you got angry, right? But it's okay; your sister doesn't know about this, and I won't tell her to worry her. When I'm with your sister, I won't let her endure something like Shen Fengye again." He knew clearly that he would never be the kind of person who cheats.
His goals had always been clear, and Jono was just someone who helped him.
So when he said these words, he felt no sense of impropriety.
Qiao Chen felt like a child in front of Jin Chengyan, as if he had nowhere to hide. Jin Chengyan was truly a difficult person to deal with.
"If you dare to make my sister even a little sad, I won't hesitate to solve it with my fists."

When Jono came out of the room, she found that Qiao Chen was gone.
"Where's my brother?" Jono worried that while she was away, Jin Chengyan might say something to Qiao Chen, so she hurriedly finished her shower. But now, Qiao Chen was nowhere to be found.
Only Jin Chengyan was in the living room, flipping through a magazine.
"He left."
"I know he left! I'm asking why he left!" They hadn't even exchanged a few words before Qiao Chen walked out. It felt all wrong.
"If he wants to leave, then he can leave. Am I supposed to stop him?"
“……” It seemed that way.
Jono felt a bit deflated and silently glanced at Jin Chengyan before preparing to dry her hair. She had been busy earlier and her hair was still damp, which was somewhat uncomfortable.
Little did she know, as she walked into her room, Jin Chengyan followed her inside. He leaned against the doorframe, watching Jono as she sat in front of the vanity.
Through the mirror, Jono caught sight of Jin Chengyan but chose to ignore him. She took out the hairdryer, plugged it in, and the buzzing sound filled the room.
She could only see Jin Chengyan's lips moving, but she couldn't make out what he was saying.
Jono had never learned lip reading, and this person had chosen to speak while she was drying her hair, clearly on purpose.
“...He wouldn't do that...”
Jono turned off the hairdryer, catching only those few words.
He wouldn’t do that? What wouldn’t he do?
Facing Jono’s sudden silence, Jin Chengyan was a bit surprised, but fortunately, he had finished saying everything he wanted to say.
He looked at her in her light pink loungewear; the back was slightly transparent due to her damp hair, revealing a faint hint of black underneath. Jin Chengyan felt a tightness in his throat and an involuntary deepening of his expression.
This woman… was completely unaware of how to hold back.
Jono noticed the change in Jin Chengyan's expression, but she couldn't figure out what about her could provoke such a reaction.
What a… creature that thinks with its lower half!
Suddenly, Jono remembered something very important.
Since the day she and Jin Chengyan had become intimate, they hadn't taken any precautions for the past couple of days!
She sprang to her feet, causing Jin Chengyan, who was walking toward her, to pause for a moment in surprise.
Then, Jono turned around to face him.
The look of mild astonishment on his face made Jin Chengyan feel restless; he didn't understand why he was arguing with Jono, yet every time he saw her, he wanted nothing more than to throw her onto the bed!
Just like now.
With her so close, Jin Chengyan pulled Jono into his arms and kissed her delicate neck, feeling as if he could never get enough of her.
It was only after meeting Jono that Jin Chengyan realized how much he craved that kind of intimacy.
To his surprise, Jono, who had accepted his advances before, began to push him away this time!
She resisted his kiss.
However, to Jin Chengyan, this seemed like a game of push and pull.
His hand slipped inside Jono's clothing, his warm palm touching her trembling body, and it felt so good.
"Jono..." he whispered her name, though he hadn't intended for things to go this way.
He had come in to talk to her about the rumors that had surfaced today, clarifying that it wasn't his doing. Although Jono might not listen to his explanation, he knew she wouldn't believe him if he didn't try.
Yet, how had they ended up here?
"Jin Chengyan, I don't want this!" Jono stifled a soft moan that threatened to escape her lips as she resisted him.
But Jin Chengyan didn't stop his actions; in fact, he responded even more eagerly.
"Jin Chengyan, you didn't use protection the last two times! You wouldn't want to be looking for Ruan Shengyu with a child in tow when we get divorced!" Jono's words made Jin Chengyan halt immediately.
His hand withdrew from Jono's clothing, feeling somewhat... defeated.
"We're both adults; this is consensual. But a child? I don't want one brought into this situation. I won't take birth control pills, so you need to use protection. Otherwise, I won't let you touch me," Jono insisted firmly on this matter. "I've already taken precautions the last two times; I'm only taking the pill this once. Whether or not you use protection is up to you!"
Jono declared this with a sense of righteousness.
Jin Chengyan was genuinely taken aback by Jono's... passionate stance on the matter.
But it was undeniable that Jin Chengyan did not wish for the appearance of children at this moment.
"It seems you have quite a bit of experience in this area!"
"You..." Jono felt inexplicably taken aback by Jin Chengyan's deliberate provocation. What experience could she possibly have?
However, Jin Chengyan suddenly grabbed Jono's outstretched index finger and brought it to his lips, lightly licking it as if mimicking some sort of action...
"Pervert!" Jono pulled her hand back. Two days ago, she wouldn't have known what Jin Chengyan was imitating, but after everything that had happened in those two days, how could she not understand?
"Then how about..." Jin Chengyan leaned closer, pinning Jono between him and the vanity. "We go buy a set together..."
His breath was warm against her ear, igniting a heat throughout her body. This man truly had maxed out his flirting skills!
"Before we go buy anything, I need to do something else." Jono met Jin Chengyan's enthusiasm, her lips brushing against his in a fleeting touch.
