Chapter 737: The Evening Sunshine in the World (17)
As soon as she entered the Xiao Mansion, someone told her that the young master and his wife were waiting for guests in the front hall. Wan Qing immediately ran to the front hall. However, when she reached the small door next to the hall, she suddenly stopped and hesitated.
.
What should you say when you see Xiao Jing? What expression should you use to face him?
Just like when she was a child, she opened her hands and asked him to hug her? Not to mention doing it, she felt cold just thinking about it. Then, what else could the two of them talk about? After nearly ten years of separation, she couldn't even imagine how Xiao Jing should grow up.
What does he look like? He must be the same! And he is an official now. The people who have been in officialdom are different from the ordinary brothers and sisters in the family. If she sees him, should she salute?
The more I think about it, the harder it becomes to take another step, and I even have the urge to run away.
"Silly girl, why are you standing here and not coming in?" A strange voice with a friendly tone.
Wan Qing raised her head, her eyes immediately blurred, and she raised a sweet smile, "Brother, are you back?"
"I'm back." Xiao Jing stepped forward and gently rubbed Wan Qing's hair, just like he did when he was a child.
Hearing those four words, Wan Qing felt her heart sink. She returned to her original place and felt at ease. Her brother was still the same brother. Although he had grown much taller and paler, there was still a certain aura about him, but
He was still the same brother, and now, at this moment, in front of her, he was still the same person.
"Have you met your parents?" Wan Qing's tone was warm, just like when they met before when he came back from school.
"I just met them. They are in the hall. Does my sister want to go?"
"Yes. It's time to go say hello!"
The two held hands and walked into the hall together. There were not many guests in the hall as Wan Qing expected, but there were also many strangers.
Xiao Tongwen and Hongyun were talking to a couple. Wan Qing just glanced at them and was immediately startled. Then she quickly stepped forward and saluted, "Second uncle, second aunt, you are back!"
"It turns out to be Wan Qing! She has grown so tall..."
"Father, mother." Before the second lady could say anything, Luo Ying had already rushed in crying. She had not been so out of control for a long time since she started working as a director, but it was excusable.
By the time Wan Qing arrived, he felt that he had been too indifferent. When he saw Xiao Tongwen, whom he had not seen for ten years, he just said lightly, "Are you back?" and dismissed him.
She subconsciously looked at Xiao Jing, and saw that he was looking at her with a slight smile on his face, and there was a touch of teasing in his eyes, as if to say, look at this person, this is what a reunion after a long separation should look like.
Wan Qing glared at him, then laughed, slowly walked to him, and naturally took his arm with her hand.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I've broken my promise. I originally promised that if you didn't come back in five years, I would definitely look for you, but it's been ten years and I haven't gone."
"Then how can I blame you? I have worked hard for you for so many years." Although he has not returned home for ten years, he is still an official now and already knows what happened at home.
"It's great that my brother is back now." After Wan Qing finished speaking, she looked at the row of four people behind Xiao Jing and asked curiously: "Brother, who are they?"
