Chapter 245: This Time, Brother Really Went Too Far!

Then there was only one possibility.

The girl was indeed Fang Zhou’s sister.

It had been several years since Qiao Sisi was with Fang Zhou. Back then, they were both young and engrossed in their own lives, hardly paying attention to others.

Qiao Sisi couldn’t clearly remember if Fang Zhou had a sister.

Looking closely now, although the girl didn’t resemble Fang Zhou, her demeanor was strikingly similar.

She stopped, not entering the elevator, but turned back to Fang Zhou’s apartment door, smiling as she approached before they closed the door.

“Hello, are you Fang Zhou’s sister?”

Inside, Fang Wenjing, about to check if Fang Zhou was home, paused and looked up, seeing a beautiful woman at the door.

A hint of confusion flashed in her eyes as she asked, “And you are?”

Qiao Sisi pointed to herself, briefly introducing.

“I’m Qiao Sisi, a friend of Fang Zhou’s. I need to discuss something with him, but he hasn’t been home since last night.”

After a sleepless night, Qiao Sisi’s voice was hoarse, but her training as an actress allowed her to speak clearly and effectively.

In just a few sentences, she explained the situation.

Fang Wenjing was taken aback, glancing up and down at Qiao Sisi, silently cursing her brother.

What a crime! Making such a beautiful girl wait all night!

She quickly walked over, grabbing Qiao Sisi’s arm and inviting her in.

“Hello, Sister Sisi. I’m Fang Wenjing, Fang Zhou’s younger sister.”

“I was looking for him myself, but I guess he’s not home. I’m so sorry you had to wait all night.”

She guided Qiao Sisi to the sofa and fetched her a cup of warm water.

“What’s so urgent? My brother might be at a friend’s place.”

Fang Zhou rarely stayed out all night, whether at this place or the other.

If he didn’t come home, he was likely out with Li Siming and the others.

So, Fang Wenjing assumed he was with Li Siming.

The young girl’s mind raced, finding Qiao Sisi increasingly familiar—she looked like a celebrity but couldn’t pinpoint who.

Fang Wenjing wasn’t into following stars or watching shows, but her classmates loved it, often sharing pictures and gushing over their favorite celebrities.

Through this exposure, some faces in the entertainment industry became familiar to her.

But she didn’t think her brother could be friends with a big star.

Even though he was on a dating show, big stars wouldn’t go on such shows to find a boyfriend, right?

So, she dismissed the idea, thinking Qiao Sisi was just a pretty friend of her brother.

But wait! Would a regular friend wait outside all night? That didn’t add up!

Could she be her brother’s secret crush?

The thought shocked Fang Wenjing, making her reassess Qiao Sisi.

With a polite smile, Qiao Sisi sipped the warm water before speaking.

“There’s something important I need to discuss with him.”

She needed to talk about Chu Xinran.

“But he hasn’t answered my calls or messages all night. It’s really frustrating.”

Qiao Sisi looked sad, like a woman abandoned, instantly triggering Fang Wenjing’s empathy.

She clapped her hands together in frustration, exclaiming, “That’s just too much! How can he, as a gentleman, do this?”

How could he make such a pretty girl wait all night!

It was upsetting to think of a girl waiting alone outside all night, dealing with bugs and fear, while he didn’t even respond.

This time, Brother really went too far!

Taking out her phone, Fang Wenjing reassured Qiao Sisi, “I’ll call him now. Sister Sisi, you just rest for a bit.”

Qiao Sisi watched curiously, wondering if Fang Zhou’s sister could get through when she couldn’t.

A minute later, Fang Zhou’s voice on the other end provided the answer.

“Hello? What’s up, Meimei?”

“Why are you only answering now! Sister Sisi has been waiting for you all night.”

Fang Wenjing complained, giving Qiao Sisi a reassuring look.

She was saying, ‘Don’t worry, I’ll get him back.’

Qiao Sisi smiled, understanding the weight the sister held in Fang Zhou’s life.

It seemed unlikely Fang Zhou deliberately ignored her calls. Either his phone was on vibrate or silent, or he was too busy to answer.

But he had set his sister’s number as an emergency contact, ensuring he’d always get alerts.

Fang Zhou, still groggy from only three or four hours of sleep, asked absentmindedly, “Waiting for what? Who?”

Fang Wenjing repeated, “It’s Qiao Sisi, Sister Qiao.”

“She has something important to discuss but couldn’t reach you all night.”

Hearing Qiao Sisi’s name, Fang Zhou instantly woke up.

He quickly kicked Li Siming’s leg off him, asking seriously, “You said Qiao Sisi is looking for me?”

Why would she be looking for him? There must be a reason.

Fang Zhou hadn’t forgotten how dangerous Qiao Sisi could be—a woman who could stab without warning!

What was his sister doing with her?

“Yeah, Sister Sisi is at your apartment. Come back quickly.”

The naive sister was helping call Fang Zhou back.

Fang Zhou cursed inwardly, instructing, “Stay with Aunt Wei and don’t go anywhere. I’m coming back.”

He grabbed his car keys, ready to rush back.

With Aunt Wei around, at least there was someone to keep an eye on things. If Qiao Sisi went crazy, he feared for his sister’s safety.
