.〖Extra〗Qing Qing Zi Jin, You You My Heart (1) The Cold Truth
"Uncle Xiao." Xi Mo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. His eyes swept over Ling Xi's beautiful face lightly and settled on Mingzhu's face, "Let Ling Xi stay. Mingzhu has been very lonely these years.
She doesn’t have many friends, so wouldn’t it be nice to have a younger brother to accompany her now?”
The low and hoarse voice deliberately emphasized the word "brother".
The smile on Ling Xi's lips was a bit unbearable.
Xiao Zimo glanced at Xi Mo suspiciously. Since he had said so, he seemed to have nothing to object to.
"Sister-in-law Rong arranged a room for Ling Xi."
"Yes, sir."
Ling Xihuan slowly got up from Mingzhu, with a big smile on her lips, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao. I know that Uncle Xiao, you are more cheerful and generous than my old man! I love Uncle Xiao the most!!"
Although Xiao Zimo had no expression on his face, he felt happy to be praised as being better than Ling Jiuyue and to be praised by Ling Jiuyue's son.
"Mingzhu, I'm tired. Let's go back to the room to rest first." After Ling Xi said to Mingzhu, he then said to Xiao Zimo and Xi Mo: "Uncle Xiao, good night, brother Xi Mo..."
I happily went back to my room without even looking back.
"I'm tired too. Let's go back to the room to rest." Mingzhu stood up with a calm expression. When passing by Xi Mo, she whispered: "Thank you for letting me stay here."
Xi Mo frowned, "Mingzhu, this is your home."
Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then her frown suddenly relaxed, she raised an unknown smile on her lips, and walked slowly upstairs.
Xi Mo saw her figure disappearing at the end of the corridor and frowned: "You have been hiding Mu Rutun'er's matter from her."
Xiao Zimo leaned back, his slender and powerful legs overlapping each other, "She was too young at that time, so I didn't know how to tell her, and now that she has grown up, I don't even know how to say it."
"She has always wanted to find Mu Rutong'er, but you kept hiding it. If this continues, it will only make her hate you even more!"
"It doesn't matter." Xiao Zimo raised an indifferent smile at the corner of his mouth. He didn't want her before, but now she doesn't want her. It's at best retribution. "I just want her to live happily and have someone who can take care of her wholeheartedly."
.As for how she thinks and hates me, it doesn’t matter.”
Xi Mo's cold eyes swept over his expression, and he turned around and went upstairs without saying a word.
"Even you hate me?" Xiao Zimo felt Xi Mo's hostility toward him.
"It's not hate." Xi Mo stopped, put his hands in his pockets, turned around and looked at him condescendingly, his voice was calm and there was no trace of anger, "I hate anyone who makes her sad, and I hate the relationship between you and Lin Jiu back then.
Involve her, if it weren't for you, her eyes wouldn't be blind, and she wouldn't be like this."
"Xiao Zimo, even if you return the pearl to me, I will not be grateful to you." The cold voice was low and determined, "You, Lin Jiu, and even Ling Xi are all the objects of my disgust. That's all...
"
After saying that, he turned around and left without stopping at all.
Xiao Zimo looked at his arrogant figure stretched long and fitfully by the light, his thin lips couldn't help but evoke an evil smile; the light in his eyes was evil.
He truly deserves to be Lan Sichen's son. He is even better than Lan Sichen. He can ignore anything in this world for the sake of love.
Mingzhu is unfortunate because she did not grow up healthily in a normal family environment; but she is lucky, at least being loved by a man like Lan Ximo is a very happy thing.
There seemed to be a stuffy feeling in the chest, thinking of Ling Xi's pretty face, her delicate beauty between the brows, and it had been so many years since they turned around.
The children are all grown up, and he is old...
****
Late at night, the corridor lights were on desertedly, and someone wearing a pink bunny costume and pajamas was standing at the door of Mingzhu's room holding a rabbit doll, staring at someone with wide eyes.
Xi Mo was wearing silver-gray pajamas, with two buttons unbuttoned at the collar, revealing Bai Xi's strong chest. His back was leaning against the cold and hard wall, and his hands were casually placed on his chest. Under his messy hair, his sharp eyes were cold.
staring at the innocent little rabbit.
"I am sleepwalking and want to sleep with my sister."
"Really?" The corner of Xi Mo's mouth curled up, like a smile but not a smile, and the light flashing across his eyes was absolutely murderous.
"Haha... I'm afraid of the dark! It doesn't matter that I'm a younger brother and my sister sleeps together!" Ling Xi squeezed the corners of her mouth and showed an innocent smile.
If anyone else saw Ling Xi, who was so beautiful in pink bunny pajamas that everyone and gods were outraged, they would not refute or doubt what he said. Unfortunately, it was Xi Mo who listened to him.
Xi Mo didn't agree with him.
"In that case, sleeping with my brother doesn't seem to be a big deal."
Ling Xi's face darkened suddenly and she took a step back, "I don't want... I absolutely don't want to sleep with you... Wow... Mingzhu, help me..."
Before he could shout any more, Xi Mo had already caught him, carried him back to the room, and threw him on the bed. Ling Xi was beaten to pieces, and her eyes were filled with stars.
"Uuuuu...you bully people...I want to tell Mingzhu that the big-tailed wolf bullies people!" Ling Xi hugged the quilt and rolled on the soft bed, with tears in her beautiful eyes.
Xi Mo didn't say anything. His eyes looked back and forth on his beautiful face. Along his open chest, he saw that Bai Xi's skin was no different from that of a woman's, except that she didn't have a woman's breasts...
Ling Xi felt that the atmosphere was strange, and a chill ran down her spine. She looked at him with bright eyes, and followed his line of sight to her chest. She roared "Wow" and immediately hugged her chest, "I'll go."
!You, you, you, you don’t want to do anything to me! I, I, I’m not interested in men!”
The look in his eyes was so terrifying that Ling Xi struggled to speak.
The corners of Xi Mo's lips curved in an evil way, "Really? But I'm not sure if I'm not interested in men!"
"Ah!" Ling Xi was so frightened that she immediately rolled from the bed to the floor, crawling and trying to run back to her room, but unfortunately - this uncle was cold-hearted.
Xi Mo gently picked him up again and threw him on the bed, "If you don't want me to be interested in you, just sleep well. If you dare to go to her room, I don't guarantee what I will do!"
His eyes were cold, his thin lips pursed in an emotionless arc...
Ling Xi was about to cry...but he didn't dare to be disobedient...just looking at the height and shape of the two people, he was no match for him.
Woo hoo... Big tail wolf is bad, bad, big devil, I will bite you.
Ling Xi hugged the pillow and chewed it childishly.
Xi Mo was speechless.
If he hadn't been worried about this kid crawling into Mingzhu's room in the middle of the night, he wouldn't have slept with this brat!

On the breakfast table the next day.
Xiao Zimo's face was deserted, Xi Mo's face was as calm as a pearl, Ling Xi - kept yawning, with tears in his eyes.
"Taiwan, didn't you sleep well last night?" Mingzhu asked with concern.
Ling Xi glanced at Xi Mo, who had a cold profile, but dared not say anything angrily, "I accept the bed." Who can sleep in the same bed as a big-tailed wolf? ←_←
"You'll get used to it in two days." Mingzhu took the milk and thought of something and said, "If the bed is not good, ask Sister Rong to change it for you."
"Oh...I know." Ling Xi yawned again.
"I went to the company. I have some entertainment tonight and I won't come back to have dinner with you." Xiao Zimo said calmly and stood up and left.
Ling Xi also stood up slowly, "I'm going to work."
Only Mingzhu and Xi Mo were left.
Xi Mo: "Do you want to continue living here after marriage, or move to a new house? If you want to live in a new house, I will let people start decorating it now. What style do you like?"
"I never said I would marry you." Mingzhu reiterated calmly.
"Who else can you marry besides me?" Xi Mo replied coldly.
"I can marry no one!"
"What about Xiao's Enterprise?" Xi Mo put down his cup and looked at her seriously, his words sharp, "Uncle Xiao is not young anymore. Do you really want him to see his life's hard work ruined in his later years? Or do you want him to
Spend the last second of your life sitting on a chair in a conference room?”
Mingzhu didn't say anything, but her face gradually turned pale. She held the cup tightly with her fingers, trying her best to hold back something.
"Mingzhu, we are all tolerating you because we love you, but that doesn't mean you can squander our love for you. Stop saying you won't get married!" Xi Mo's lukewarm tone was not considered serious.
warn.
Just listening to Mingzhu's ears was so uncomfortable and harsh.
"Then should I hug your thighs with tears of gratitude and thank you for tolerating my unruly and unreasonable ways for so many years! Thank you for the love and sympathy you have given me, allowing me, a blind man, to live without any worries.
Starve to death! Thank you for your greatness in helping me, a despicable and ignorant blind man."
"Mingzhu, why do you have to twist my meaning?" Xi Mo's face sank calmly. Her personality when she grew up was really infuriating.
Mingzhu touched the table and stood up slowly, with a sarcastic smile on her lips: "Am I twisting your meaning? Why does it sound to me like you are speaking these words to me from a superior position? I have to crawl on my knees.
Your feet are licking your toes gratefully?"
Xi Mojian frowned and stared at her, but did not speak immediately.
"Each of you, under the banner of loving me, does what you say is good for me. But - have any of you ever asked me about my wishes? Has anyone ever asked, is this Pearl what you want?
?Even if it's just a sentence, have you really asked?" Mingzhu's fingers fell on the tablecloth and she suddenly tightened her grip, and the tears in her eyes flickered stubbornly,
"Even just one sentence... is fine. But have any of you ever asked me if I would like to be Xiao Mingzhu, if I would like to be locked up like a prison bird, unable to go out, unable to make friends, and not even have anyone to talk to?"
...Do you really love her, or do you just want to trap her in this cold cage until she dies?"
"Lan Ximo, you are so arrogant and great. You came to me like a god and said you wanted to get married and you wanted to take care of me. But I'm sorry... Mingzhu is such an ungrateful and ungrateful person. I can't afford your Lan family.
Second Young Master!"
Mingzhu finished speaking in one breath, and the moment she turned around, she couldn't help but shed tears. The grievances she had held in her heart for many years suddenly burst out.
Stumbling up the stairs, I didn't need anyone's help, and I didn't want anyone to see my embarrassment again.
Lan Ximo sat in his seat and did not chase her. He clearly saw her tears but pretended to be indifferent. It seemed as if a needle was pricking him in his heart. It hurt and was uncomfortable. Her words kept echoing in his ears, and every word
It struck his heart.
"Sister-in-law Rong..." Lan Ximo suddenly spoke, his cold gaze directed at Aunt Rong, "How has she lived these years?"
"This..." Sister-in-law Rong hesitated.
Xi Mo shone a cold light, which was full of warning.
Rong's sister-in-law looked melancholy, struggled a little, and said hesitantly: "Miss has lived in this villa for these years and has never gone out. She also has no friends. The husband does not allow her to go out, nor does he allow anyone to get close to her."
"She is not allowed to go out, and no one is allowed to get close to her?" Xi Mo frowned, what on earth was Xiao Zimo doing?
"The young lady was bullied when she went to school. Other children lied to her and bullied her. Later, her husband did not allow her to go to school and asked a tutor to teach her. When the young lady was 15 years old, her tutor was a young man who was very good to the young lady and always treated her well.
Bring some outside things to make the lady happy. The lady likes to learn from him, but——"
"Just what?"
"It's just that he fell in love with the young lady, and when the husband found out, he drove him away." Sister-in-law Rong sighed softly, "Actually, the young lady only relied on her brother for that young man, but the husband was too nervous about the young lady, and he was afraid that the young man was
He was so kind to the young lady because of his identity, and he was afraid that the young lady would be deceived by him, so he did this...but the young lady didn't understand and had a quarrel with the husband for a while, and then slowly forgot about it."
"Did something happen when she was sixteen?"
Sister-in-law Rong looked slightly pale and hesitated for a long time.
"Do you want me to ask Mr. Xiao in person? Xi Mo's face was gloomy, and his eyes fell on her with a penetrating look.
"It's useless to ask sir, he doesn't know either." Sister-in-law Rong sighed helplessly.
"What's going on?" Xi Mo frowned even more tightly. He needed to know what happened to her in order to understand why she was like this.
"You called the lady on her fifteenth birthday and told her that you would come to see her when she turned sixteen. Do you still remember, Mr. Lan?"
"I remember." How could he forget it. It was the first time they talked on the phone after many years, and he would always remember her excited and happy voice on the phone, saying she would definitely wait for him to come.
Only later——
"Your phone call made the lady very happy. Although she was still cold and indifferent to her husband, there was a touch of happiness in her words and eyebrows. Since then, she has been very well-behaved, and she does not go out making troubles, and studies seriously every day.
, rest, every afternoon she sits at the door and says she will wait for you to come..."
"Day after day, even when it rains, she stubbornly stands at the door. She said, maybe Momo will come early, and I think he can see me soon. I have never seen a child more stubborn than her.
, so able to persist, from spring to summer, from summer to autumn, she was at the door on her birthday
She stood all day and refused to rest until 12 o'clock in the evening. In the end, the husband forced her to carry her upstairs and gave her a sedative to let her rest. When she woke up, she didn't cry or make trouble, she just said something was wrong with Momo.
If you can't come, it doesn't matter. As long as you are not over sixteen, Momo will definitely come."
Xi Mo sat on the chair, her words kept echoing in his ears. The fingers placed under the table were clenched tightly, the joints were protruding and pale, and the veins on his hands were looming.
He never knew that his damn phone call would make her look forward to it like that, looking forward to him coming to her day and night.
Now he finally understood what she said before - "Momo should have come back five years ago. But he didn't... He didn't come back five years ago... It doesn't make any sense to come back now."
She waited for herself for a whole year with such joy and anticipation.
"From then on, she still sat at the door waiting for you every day, but she couldn't smile, and became more dull and negative every day; then on the night of the 29th at the end of the year...she ran away from home."
Xi Mo's eyes flickered, "Running away from home?" She couldn't see it, but she actually ran away from home?
"Yes, sir, I guess she is looking for you! But it snowed heavily in Beijing that year, and it was freezing and snowy at night. She couldn't see anyone running out, so we went crazy looking for her. We couldn't find her.
By the time we found her, it was already three days later."
Three days later, she couldn't see and stayed outside alone for three days. She couldn't even imagine what she went through during those three days.
"What happened to her?" Xi Mo heard his voice almost squeezed out from between his teeth.
"I don't know." Sister-in-law Rong shook her head and sighed: "No one knows what happened to her in those three days, and Mr. can't find out. When we found her, she was in a very embarrassed state, her body was wet and broken, and her cheeks were
The swelling seemed like she had been beaten. But no matter how I asked her, she refused to say what happened. When the gentleman asked again, she seemed to be crazy and wanted to rush out of the road...she was almost hit by a car."
"That day was the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. From then on, the young lady hated winter very much. She hated the Chinese New Year and even more hated the fourth day of the Lunar New Year."
Xi Mo felt like a hand was grabbing his heart fiercely, and there was a needle stuck in his throat. It was very painful, and he couldn't swallow. The pain was so severe that he couldn't breathe.
She waited for herself for a whole year, waiting day after day, waiting with hope in the end in exchange for hope.
She wants to find herself, but she can't see her. Where can she go?
She had no idea what happened during those three days, and she didn't even want to talk about it. It must have been very scary and terrible for her.
No wonder she wasn't happy at all about her return...
No wonder her reaction to him was so cold...
No wonder she felt like she was giving alms to her...
It turns out that she was the one who caused her to be like this. It was he who gave her hope and then pushed her into despair.
