"Brother Lan, can you hug me?" Standing behind Xiao Lan, Ye Shuiyou became more and more sad as he spoke, and his eyes were already full of tears.
"Relax yourself, why are you doing this?" Xiao Lan did not go up to hug Ye Shuiyou, but just comforted him.
But Ye Shuiyou couldn't hold it back anymore. She rushed forward and started crying on Xiao Lan's shoulder.
"Okay, I don't know how to coax girls. Get up and remember, as long as you are happy." Patting Ye Shuiyou on the shoulder, this may be the only comfort Xiao Lan can do.
"Brother Lan, I'm sorry."
After about three to five minutes, Ye Shuiyou got out of that state. The light makeup on his face had been washed away by tears. His pitiful look made Xiao Lan a little unbearable.
Just when Xiao Lan was at a loss, the door bell rang suddenly. Ye Shuiyou hurriedly ran to the window and looked, only to see a man carrying a large backpack waiting anxiously outside the door.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ye, it's too late, so it took a little longer."
After opening the door, the man apologized to Ye Shuiyou again and again. Of course, the younger sister didn't care much and asked the man outside the door to put down his things and then let him leave.
"It smells so good. Why would someone deliver takeout so late?" Xiao Lan asked with disbelief as he stared at Ye Shuiyou's movements of placing the food on the table one by one. He thought that he had done this more than once before.
I have made takeout calls like this, but they are usually rejected after 10 o'clock.
"They, as long as you give them money, can deliver food in the middle of the night."
Ye Shuiyou relaxed a little and said towards the shadow of the previous person outside the window.
"Brother Lan, sit down."
The meal was not sumptuous, but it was made very delicately. Perhaps to keep in shape, Ye Shuiyou didn't order too many meat dishes, only a piece of twice-cooked pork and a few more ordinary side dishes.
"Brother Lan, why are you laughing?"
Seeing Xiao Lan staring at the dishes on the table, Ye Shuiyou couldn't help but ask.
"I'm so lucky to have met you in Yuehua Legend, otherwise I would still be cooking instant noodles in that house in Haidian."
One sentence made Ye Shuiyou amused. The younger sister turned around, took out a bottle of beautifully decorated red wine from the wine cabinet behind her, and then poured a full glass for Xiao Lan and herself.
"Ever since that time you invited me to drink, I've fallen in love with these things. After that, every time I came back, I would drink a little." After Ye Shuiyou said that, without waiting for Xiao Lan, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
.
"Brother Lan, drink it. This wine won't get you drunk." Ye Shuiyou's face turned red almost instantly. She obviously couldn't drink. After just one glass, she would feel her whole body heat up.
...The wind gently swept through the small garden behind the villa, which made the villa community seem even more silent at night. The glass of red wine in front of Xiao Lan only took a symbolic sip or two, while the one in front of Ye Shuiyou
That glass has been refilled twice.
"Is it worth it for you to destroy yourself like this?" Xiao Lan sat across from him, quietly watching Ye Shuiyou drink cup after cup, but did not stop him, but reminded him very calmly and without any emotion.
But Xiao Lan's quiet appearance didn't mean that he wasn't anxious. After entering the big room, he immediately felt that Ye Shuiyou was not only tired, but also a little distracted and a little distracted. Before he could figure out Ye Shuiyou,
In front of the reason for being so irritable, he didn't want to speak rashly, for fear of pressing the wrong "button" and offending this pretty little girl with quite a personality, and messing up the matter instead.
Looking at the girl opposite, Xiao Lan sat blankly on the chair for a long time. He felt that he was not feeling well all over, but for a moment he couldn't figure out where he was feeling bad. An inexplicable regret and an equally inexplicable loss.
, a kind of guilt caused by this regret and loss suddenly came to my already exhausted heart. Although I didn't have much contact with girls, after all, I had a year of work experience, and there were countless beauties in the Shengjing Group, and I liked Xiao Lan.
There are quite a few, but Xiao Lan has never felt so lost and regretful like this time in his interactions with them.
"Did I do something wrong or do something less?" Xiao Lan, who is meticulous and steady, and therefore sometimes seems a bit indecisive, asked herself this question over and over again in her heart.
From Ye Shuiyou's eyes, Xiao Lan could already see a trace of despair. Maybe the little beauty understood Mu Hao's character better than he did.
Ye Shuiyou's "despair" made Xiao Lan suddenly feel that there was actually a serious life threat and setback in the world that he had never suffered before; there was also a life experience that he had only heard of,
But he has not experienced it personally; and there is a kind of life responsibility that he has praised, but has never seriously tested or taken on; there is also a kind of "enemy" that as a "diaosi" he has never faced
.These "enemies" look like dogs. They "pretend" to be more like a "human" than him in life, and live a much more free and open-minded life than he does. But some people live so heavy,
It was difficult for him to imagine...
Thinking of this, Xiao Lan suddenly couldn't help but blame herself deeply. Why couldn't she comfort Ye Shuiyou more before? Even if it was to give her some mental support.
…
"Are you still worried about the Ye Group?" After a while, Xiao Lan guessed in a low voice, in order to try not to stir up waves in Ye Shuiyou's heart.
"That Mu Hao, I always feel a little unreliable." Ye Shuiyou slowly raised his head, looked at Xiao Lan and said softly.
"At best, he is a little arrogant and arrogant. But he will not betray the group?" Xiao Lan shook his head and asked Ye Shuiyou.
"Humph! I hope." Ye Shuiyou raised his head, as if praying for something.
"By the way, Brother Lan, let me show you a place." Ye Shuiyou suddenly became very excited, as if she remembered something for a moment, she suddenly got up from her seat, then pulled Xiao Lan and walked towards the back.
Go to the door.
"And the basement?"
As soon as they opened the door, they were greeted by darkness. Only when Ye Shuiyou carefully turned on the light did Xiao Lan see the direction of the stairs clearly.
"Brother Lan, come down here. Here are all the belongings I have accumulated over the years." After Ye Shuiyou finished speaking, he walked down without waiting for Xiao Lan's answer.
And Xiao Lan, after hearing Ye Shuiyou's introduction, couldn't help but follow him quickly. He wanted to see what this rich girl could save in the past few years.
Just like before entering the villa, Xiao Lan had countless assumptions, but the final answer was always far from it. Bundles of dazzling light shot towards him, and Xiao Lan subconsciously blocked it with his hands. But
Just a blockage allowed him to clearly see all the possessions the little beauty mentioned - neatly stacked gold bars.
"Oh my God, how many are these?" Xiao Lan looked at the piles of gold bars and was so surprised that he froze there.
What does this little girl want to do, to accumulate strength in order to make a comeback? Various possibilities flashed through Xiao Lan's mind, but he immediately denied them one by one. She thought too much, too deeply, and couldn't solve it. In the end, she could only be herself.
I can't live with myself.
But the matter has already reached this point. Ye Shuiyou has already presented these things in front of Xiao Lan. He doesn't want to do it at all. He feels uncomfortable and uneasy.
"Tell me, what's going on?" After calming down his mood, Xiao Lan pointed at the golden patch in front of him and asked.
Ye Shuiyou was not in a hurry to answer, but walked forward, stroking and counting the gold bars one by one. The gentle footsteps and hand movements were the most attractive thing about Ye Shuiyou. When she fell in love with
She would always do this kind of action when meeting certain people or things.
"So, what I lack is not money, but people, truly capable people!" Ye Shuiyou put one hand on a gold bar and suddenly turned his head and said.
"Can I interpret your behavior as temptation?"
"Whatever you think." Ye Shuiyou sighed and said, "Actually, I had long suspected that the Shengjing Group was paying attention to our Ye family's property, but unfortunately the other party did it very cleverly, and my father favored sons over daughters.
His thoughts were very deep, so I couldn’t get involved at all, so I had no choice but to secretly embezzle the company’s funds in every business, and in the end, a small amount added up to a huge sum.”
"But...but these are all speculations of yours, with no actual evidence."
