The space suddenly quieted down, but somehow it made people feel at ease and warm.
"Brother, I love you."
Rita was rarely so emotional. If it were in the past, Zion would definitely dislike her. But now that he had experienced love, he was more or less touched and warm to hear such words. He couldn't help but smile and say, "If Mylo hears this, I don't know if he will be jealous."
"Brother, why are you doing this? Don't bully him. Mylo is very simple, okay? Don't get angry with him."
Zion smiled when he saw Rita's protection.
"He's innocent? Do you know his true identity?"
"A businessman and a politician, what kind of identity does he have?"
Rita said indifferently.
Zion said in a low voice, "A businessman who has great skills? An imperceptible criminal who has been working in the Fang Group?"
"Brother, what are you trying to say?"
Rita's expression became serious.
Zion had already said those words, but she still couldn't hear what Zion was going to tell her. If that was the case, then she was too stupid.
Seeing his sister like this, Zion sighed and whispered, "Mylo is from the National Security Agency. Do you really want to be with him?"
Rita couldn't help but stop.
Zion knew that she was surprised, but he didn't give her time to digest it. Instead, he continued, "Our family already has a member of the National Security Agency. You know how dangerous this job is, and there's also a bad result. Once you go in, you won't be able to come out for the rest of your life unless you retire. Rita, you are the treasure in our hands. Our parents and I share the same wish. We all hope that you can find an ordinary person to marry. This way, it'll be better for you. But now that you've fallen in love with Mylo, you should think about the life you'll face in the future. It's very likely that you'll meet this situation often. Even when you're in danger, your husband may not be able to be by your side as soon as possible. I have nothing to say about Mylo's character, but my parents and I don't think highly of his job."
Rita had calmed down from the initial shock.
She didn't say anything, so Zion didn't urge her to think about it.
After a long time, Rita opened her mouth.
"Brother, I'm a little confused. For the time being, I don’t know what to do. I want to go with what I want. I know what you said is right. I also know that a husband like him will be very hard. But I just thought about it and if you ask me to give up on him, I will be reluctant. I have always felt that I am heartless and I can't even remember our previous agreement. After all, so many years have passed. Who still remembers the rumors when I was a child? But he does. He gave up music for me and left the family. There may be other reasons, but I know my own situation. I have been looking for a boyfriend according to the traces of Mylo all these years. So I actually like him since I was a child. I have liked him for so long. If you let me go, I may not be able to do it for the time being."
"Then don't make things difficult for yourself. I'll listen to you and go with your wishes."
Zion was always patient with Rita.
He had only one sister.
For so many years, Rita had suffered too much. Although she was the apple of Ye family's eye, her body had been tortured since she was born. She had survived several life-and-death situations. It was indeed hard for her to live.
Zion felt that it was enough to see that Rita was healthy. As for other things, as long as Rita liked them, as long as she was willing, he would agree.
Feeling Zion's concern, Rita couldn't help but smile and say, "But in this case, I may get married very late. Do you still want to wait for me?"
"Let's do it together. This is what Evangeline wants."
Rita suddenly burst into tears.
"She is so nice. You can't let her down. Otherwise, no matter whether you are my brother or not, I will seek justice for her."
