Countdown to the full book: I only wish you a bright life 9 Ruthless and rest
Countdown to the whole book: I only wish you a bright life (9) I will give up if you are ruthless
The wind dried her tears, and Lianlian didn't say a word. She just bit her lip, bent down, grabbed a handful of snow on the ground, and threw it hard on him.
Muze was caught off guard and was hit with snow on his face. He frowned and said in a low voice, "Lan Sangyu, what's wrong with you? It's not like I don't let you be together?"
Lianlian seemed not to hear anything, and kept bending down, grabbing Xue, crumpling it into a ball, and hitting him hard, as if she was using him as a punching bag.
Mu Ze couldn't do anything to the woman, and after hiding for a few times, he felt it was boring, so he simply stood there and hit her, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, full of ridicule and disdain.
Exciting love makes you hit even harder.
A figure walked over not far away. When he saw them, his thin lips spread with a spring-like smile, and his voice was light, "What are you doing?"
Lianlian paused when she heard the voice, and looked at the tall figure standing in the snow with Mu Ze. Her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she couldn't say a word. Her eyes were still red.
Ji Xian took a few steps closer with a black briefcase in hand. His eyes fell on Lian Lian's red eyes and he frowned, "Sang Yu, did Mu Ze bully you again? Why didn't you ask Xi Ting to treat him?"
There was a sneer on Mu Ze's lips, he really didn't care about the pot.
When Lianlian heard what he said, her eyes became even redder, and the tears that were suppressed in her eyes swirled and seemed to fall down in the next second. She stood stiffly in the snow and did not speak, as if she had been greatly wronged.
"What's wrong?" Ji Xian keenly noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, and immediately walked to Lianlian, took off his coat and put it on her body, "The weather is so cold, you can have a snowball fight outside without fear of catching a cold? Okay.
, go in first.”
The fingertips gently wiped away the hot tears on her cheeks, and she looked up and fell into his amber eyes, her curled eyelashes trembling slightly in the wind...
"If you're not cold, I'm cold too. Come in." Wen Ya's voice and look were somewhat similar to those of Ji Fengwen when he was young. He put his arms around Lian Lian's shoulders and motioned with his eyes to Mu Ze to go in together.
Mu Ze snorted, these lunatics don't know what's wrong with them, they all regard Lan Sangyu as their treasure, pampering and pampering them! (He obviously forgot that when he was a child, he would be the first to rush up when he saw someone bullying Lian Lian.
Beating people up.)
Mingzhu got up and heard Rong's sister-in-law saying that guests were coming, so she changed into a light-colored shirt and paired it with pencil pants and walked out.
Ji Xian and Lian Lian were sitting on the sofa while the maid was serving tea. Mu Ze saw Ming Zhu walking downstairs and silently walked towards Xi Ting's room to avoid her.
"Hello, Miss Xiao. I am Ji Xian, the legal advisor of Blue Sky Group. I am also a good friend of several of them. I was passing by on business today, so please forgive me for intruding!"
Ji Xian was only wearing a black coat that he had just taken off for Lianlian. At this moment, he was wearing a white shirt with two sleeves unbuttoned, looking casual and natural. He was handsome and elegant, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, although he was not as handsome as Lan Ximo.
, it’s not as beautiful as Mu Ze’s, and it’s not as beautiful as Ling Xi’s, but her inherent dazzling appearance when she stands there is not inferior to anyone else’s.
"Hello, Mr. Ji. Don't be too polite, just call me Mingzhu." Mingzhu took the initiative to extend her hand.
A hint of surprise flashed in Ji Xian's eyes, and he held her hand without hesitation, "Since we are of similar age, let's just call her by our first names."
"Okay, Ji Xian." Mingzhu let go of her hand.
The door to Xi Mo's room opened. He was sitting in a wheelchair with a thin blanket covering his knees. Although he was a lot shorter, he was very imposing. His cold eyes fell directly on Ji Xian's body.
, "Why are you here?"
"I heard that something happened to you. I happened to have something urgent to deal with here in Beijing. Before I left, I wanted to come over and see how you were doing." Ji Xian replied calmly, with a smile on his lips, "I feel relieved to see that you are okay.
It would be nice to go back so that the elders can rest assured."
Lan Ximo snorted disdainfully.
Ji Xian didn't care much about his attitude and just said strangely, "Where is Xi Ting? Why haven't you seen him come out? I haven't seen him for more than a year, shouldn't I come out to see him?"
Lian Lian's expression froze, and she couldn't help but look at the closed door. She secretly tugged on her clothes with her fingers, biting her lips without saying a word, and lowered her eyelids to hide the disappointment in her eyes.
Mingzhu said softly, "She's probably still resting. Sister-in-law Rong, please go and invite her."
"Yes, miss."
Before Sister Rong walked over, the door opened on its own initiative. Xi Ting changed into a white casual home clothes and walked out. The corner of her eye passed over Lian Lian's lowered body without leaving a trace, and landed on Ji Xian's body. There was an elegant and noble expression on the corners of her mouth.
Smiling, "Why did you come suddenly? No notice?"
The two looked at each other and smiled. Ji Xian had a good relationship with Xi Ting because he had a job at Tianlan. He put his hands in his pockets and glanced at Lian Lian with his peripheral vision, "Finishing some of the last work at the end of the year, booking an order.
I took a flight back this afternoon. Before I left, I wanted to come over and visit the homeless people..."
"Tian Lan wants more help from you." Xi Ting patted his shoulder. Now that he is away, Lan Sichen is half-hearted. He goes to the company when he is happy, and stays at home to entertain his wife when he is unhappy; He Lianze and Lan Yunsheng
What's more, he said he felt unwell within two days of being in the company, and then went on a trip. Poor Lan Ruixiu was struggling to support Tianlan all by himself, and I feel sad just thinking about it.
"Then you have to come back early, I don't want to be a free coolie for the Lan family." Ji Xian teased with a smile.
Mingzhu never heard Lianlian speak. Logically speaking, Ji Xian and Lianlian should have grown up together. She should be happy to see Ji Xian. She seems to be so taciturn now that something is wrong.
"Ji Xian, you must not have had breakfast so early, why not have dinner with us. After lunch, I will ask the driver to take you to the airport."
"Then I'm welcome. Thank you Mingzhu."
"You're welcome." Mingzhu smiled lightly, with the grace and calmness of a hostess, and told Sister-in-law Rong: "Let them prepare breakfast quickly. Today's lunch must also be prepared in advance. Isn't it snowing? We should go to the airport.
You have to leave in advance to avoid traffic jams and delay time.”
"I will make the arrangements, don't worry, Miss." Sister-in-law Rong replied with a smile, then turned around to get ready.
Mingzhu sat down next to Lian Lian, her fingers gropingly landed on her hand, and she patted it silently. The movement was very light, as if it was an illusion.
Lian Lian raised his head and looked at her side face. Ming Zhu didn't look at her, but there was a faint comforting smile at the corner of his mouth.
Except for Mu Ze, who did not come out, everyone else was sitting at the dining table having breakfast. The long dining table was arranged like this, with Mingzhu sitting at the main seat, Xi Mo on the left and Xi Ting on the right. Lian Lian and Ji Xian sat opposite each other.
Beside Xi Ting, there was a gap between the two people, as close as a stone's throw away and as far away as the end of the world.
Sister-in-law Rong stood next to Mingzhu and told her what was for breakfast today and what time it was in her direction. The others ate their breakfast in silence...
As long as Lian Lian raised her head, she could see Ji Xian's half-smiling eyes, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, not knowing what he meant. Because Xi Ting was beside her, it was difficult to concentrate, so she simply put down the spoon and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable.
, I’m going back to my room first, please use it slowly!”
He stood up, turned around, and walked towards the stairs. His back looked like he was running away.
Xi Ting's eyes first fell on her almost untouched breakfast and then followed her back. He frowned. Did he stay in the snow for too long in the morning and feel uncomfortable? When he was about to stand up and wanted to go up to find her, someone
One step faster than him.
"I don't know what happened to this girl today? I'll go take a look, you continue." Ji Xian said calmly. When he turned around, he took out an unshelled egg from the table and held it warmly in his palm.
Xi Ting's eyes dimmed and he sat completely without any thought of getting up again.
Xi Mo took in this delicate scene calmly, without saying anything, and just gave Mingzhu some appetizers.
Dong Dong.
"Come in."
Ji Xian opened the door and saw that the window was open. Lianlian lay in front of the window lattice and looked at the white snow. The cold wind blew in, and she was not afraid of getting sick. She walked over and closed the window considerately.
Lianlian didn't say anything, just looked up at him.
"No matter how unhappy you are, don't use your body for entertainment!" Ji Xian bent down, grabbed her hand and put the hot eggs in her palm, "It's easy to get stomach problems if you don't eat breakfast. Girls should know how to take care of themselves.
"
Ji Xian has been a considerate and sensible child since he was a child, both to adults and to his peers. Although he is not close to the Lan family, he has the same affection for all of them; Lian Lian is a girl, and they get along with each other a lot more.
Be attentive and tolerant.
Lian Lian was dull for a long time and reached out to take what he handed to her. Her eyes were confused and dim, without the light and dazzling before, as if the sun had lost its light and heat, leaving only its body.
Ji Xian turned around and leaned against the window lattice, and his warm palm fell on her head, "What's wrong? Did you have a fight with Xi Ting?"
"No." Lianlian held the egg, but the temperature could not penetrate her skin and she could not feel it.
"Ever since you were little, Xi Ting has taken good care of you and never let anyone get close to you, especially the opposite sex." Ji Xianyun said calmly, and what he said was incomprehensible.
"What do you mean?"
"It's nothing." Ji Xian's thin lips slightly raised, and his smile faded, "I just always thought you would be with Xi Ting, but I didn't expect..."
Lian Lian's eyes became even darker, and her lowered eyelashes cast a green shadow, "You have all misunderstood, we have always been siblings."
"Fate plays tricks on people."
"Have you not forgotten her yet?" Lianlian suddenly spoke, raising her head to look at him seriously with clear eyes, now just using Ji Xian to change the subject.
"There's nothing I can't forget." Ji Xian's expression didn't change. When he mentioned that person, he had no emotional changes and seemed numb. "If you are ruthless, I will stop. Do you still expect me to hope that she can come back?"
Come to me?"
"You're right!" Lianlian thought about it and raised the corner of her mouth with a slight arc, "No one in this world will be unable to live without you. On the contrary, maybe you will live better after leaving."
"Otherwise..." Ji Xian's voice hesitated, "You come back with me. With Aunt Su and the others' love for you, they won't let you come to the house and not let you in."
"Go back with you?" Lianlian was a little hesitant. She wasn't worried that her mommy and daddy would drive her away, but she was probably reluctant to leave that person. It took more than a year to see her this time, and within two days she was with Ji Xian.
Go home, I'm afraid I won't see him when I come back.
"Can't bear to leave Xi Ting?" Ji Xian said sharply, with a helpless smile in his eyes, and gently scratched her nose with his fingers, "You little fool!"
Why don't you know how to let go?
"I'm still obedient and will go home in three years. How about we go out now? I want to buy some gifts for mom and dad. We will eat out at noon and I will take you to the airport."
"Okay." Ji Xian agreed without thinking, reached for the egg in her hand, knocked it on the window sill, and slowly peeled off the eggshell with her slender green fingers, "But you have to eat the egg first, wait.
Go down and have a glass of milk. Girls can’t go hungry.”
"Thank you, Ji Xian." Lianlian showed a forced smile.
"Do you still need to be so polite to me?" Ji Xian shook his head in a vague manner.
Lianlian and Ji Xian went downstairs and explained the reason. Mingzhu did not force them to stay, but just asked the driver to send them there and then send Lianlian back safely.
Xi Ting's eyes fell calmly on Lian Lian and Ji Xian. There was nothing strange about them. He pursed his thin lips and said with a faint smile: "Be careful along the way."
Lianlian didn't know whether he was talking to herself or Ji Xian. She glanced at him uneasily, nodded hurriedly, turned around and followed Ji Xian out.
Xi Ting didn't say anything and went back to the room directly.
Mingzhu lowered her voice and asked, "What happened to Lianlian and Xi Ting?"
Don't worry about it, Lan Ximo looked calm and calm, his gentle gaze fell on Mingzhu, and he smiled, "It's nothing. She used to make excuses for being hungry like this."
Is it just a quarrel? Although Mingzhu can't see it, she may feel that it's not as simple as a quarrel. Xi Ting loves Lian Lian so much that even if Lian Lian gets into trouble, he won't care.
"Well, you won't understand what happened to them. It's an old bad debt that you can't even settle!" Lan Ximo said calmly, with a self-deprecating smile on his lips, "Maybe this is the relationship between the Lan family and the Qin family.
This is retribution for the sins committed by generations of our family!!"
"Momo." Mingzhu frowned, not liking his tone, "I hope they can reconcile as before."
Reconciliation? Unless they want to violate moral ethics and elope to a place where no one is around to start over, they can't hope for it in this life.
But he didn't tell Mingzhu these words.
"Mingzhu——" Before Xi Mo could finish his sentence, Sister-in-law Rong came over, holding the phone in her hand, "Miss, this is a call from Master Ling Xi."
"Tai Tai?" Mingzhu's brows were filled with a smile. When she reached out her hand, Mrs. Rong put the phone in her hand, "Hey, Tai Tai, are you home? How are Daddy and Godmother? I haven't forgotten you, really.
There is no…”
Ling Xi kept asking her to tell her if she missed him.
Mingzhu refused to say anything because Xi Mo was nearby. In the end, she was so troubled by him that she had no choice but to coax him in a low voice, "I thought about it."
Xi Mo's eyes darkened slightly, his fingers on the blanket tightened quietly, and his expression calmly sank. In her world, Ling Xi will always be her light.
Only Ling Xi has such a bright smile, only Ling Xi has such a soft tone, only Ling Xi is full of patience...
Just thinking about it makes me feel like my heart is being stabbed with pain, and my blood is flowing like a river.
If she had known this, she would have killed herself without causing a car accident. At least in her heart, she would still be a little bit of a shadow, right?
Xi Mo didn't say anything, turned around in his wheelchair, and returned to his room silently without even making a sound of closing the door.
Mingzhu chatted with Ling Xi for a while and told him to celebrate the New Year well, spend more time at home with his father and godmother, and not to run back early. When he put down the phone, it was already slightly hot.
"Where's Momo?"
"Sir, you have gone back to your room." Sister-in-law Rong lowered her voice.
Mingzhu was startled. He only focused on talking to the waiter on the phone and ignored Momo. He must have felt very uncomfortable.
Sister-in-law Rong couldn't help but said: "Miss, my husband is actually very good to you. Have you forgotten what Mr. Xiao said to you? You should cherish your life while you are alive. I want you to think more about your mother and don't leave him."
The old road.”
If Dad could have cherished Mommy a little bit back then, maybe everything that happened later would not have happened.
Mommy has been waiting for Dad, and naturally she won't wait any longer until she is desperate. Then she thought of what Xiao Zimo said - being loved is too luxurious.
Mingzhu's heart tightened, she stood up and walked slowly towards Xi Mo's room.
Sister-in-law Rong no longer felt distressed when she saw her thin back, because she had let go of her stubbornness and gradually learned to cherish it.
Mingzhu knocked on the door and pushed the door open after getting permission. Because it was a guest room, she was not familiar with it, so she whispered: "Momo."
"I'm here, come straight over, there's nothing to stop you." Xi Mo raised his head and looked at her.
Mingzhu listened to his words and stepped forward without any hesitation. When she walked in front of him, her hand was held and she was pulled to sit on his lap.
"Momo..." She struggled unaccustomedly.
"You just go when I tell you to. Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you?" Xi Mo stopped her waist and stopped her from moving.
Mingzhu was stunned and stopped moving. She was surprised. She didn't know why she left after hearing his words without even thinking about it, let alone whether Xi Mo would lie to her!
"Answer me, Mingzhu." Xi Mo's voice echoed in his ears, low and confusing.
"I, I don't know." For some reason, Juan Xiu's brows furrowed as her voice stuttered, "It's just that you told me to come and I came."
Xi Mo's indifferent eyes stared deeply at her, his fingers slid over her ears, rubbed the ends of her hair, and asked again in a low and hoarse voice, "Then I want you to be with me for real? Are you willing?"
Not willing?"
Mingzhu's body froze in his arms, her body temperature gradually turned cold, her expression was numb and mechanical without any emotion, and even her eyes were empty.
The whole figure seemed dead.
There was a trace of pain in Xi Mo's eyes, and he suppressed the grief in his heart. He held her hand with his fingers, and his lips seemed to pass by her ear, and the warm wind blew by.
"Whether you are Ling Mingzhu, Mu Ru Mingzhu or Xiao Mingzhu, if you want to tangle with my soft body, I will be happy to dedicate myself to you; if you don't want it, I am willing to accompany you to have a platonic love for the rest of your life."
No matter you are Ling Mingzhu, Mu Ru Mingzhu or Xiao Mingzhu, if you want to tangle with my soft body, I will be happy to dedicate myself to you; if you don't want it, I am willing to accompany you to have a platonic love for the rest of your life.
The short sentence shocked Mingzhu deeply, and even her soul trembled. She faced Xi Mo in disbelief. Was he kidding?
You must be kidding yourself.
"Platonic love? A lifetime?" Mingzhu's choked voice trembled, her eyes were so sore, so sore indeed!
"Yes." Xi Mo was calm and calm, hugging her tightly without any gaps. He wished he could rub her into his own bones and blood until death. "We are so small that when we meet on a huge planet, we won't hold hands or kiss."
If we don’t make love, we will depend on each other for our lives.”
Without holding hands, kissing or making love, we depend on each other for life.
What a beautiful sentence!
"Then, what should the Lan family do?" As a member of the Lan family, can he indulge himself so much?
"There is no Lan family, no responsibilities, no continuation of the family line, no children, no wives and anything, just you and me!" Xi Mo stared at her with affectionate eyes and said in a gentle voice, "Mingzhu, I can accept this and slowly spend time with you.
When you grow old, at least we are together. But if you want me to see you with other men with my own eyes, and if you want me to bless you and others, you should just kill me."
Because I can't do that even if I die. Just in case you know better.
"Someone else?" Mingzhu's eyes were filled with confusion. How could there be someone else? Even if she couldn't be with Xi Mo, she never thought she could be with someone else. After thinking about it, she frowned, "You mean to treat me?"
Xi Mo didn't speak.
"I said, Taitai is my younger brother."
"But he loves you as a man." Xi Mo replied in a low voice. He admitted that he had made mistakes and hurt Ling Xi, and he was willing to use any method to compensate and make up for his mistakes, but this must not be
Pearl.
"I have talked to him. He will not always be like this. He is still young. In the future, he will meet a very good girl, and he will understand that his feelings for me are just family affection and sympathy, and have nothing to do with love.
." Mingzhu explained quietly.
"What about you?" Xi Mo asked abruptly, his eyes both gentle and sharp, "Mingzhu, do you still love me?"
As long as you still love me a little bit, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will never give up!
"I -" Mingzhu didn't know how to answer for a moment. The shock Xi Mo gave her was too great. Her mind was buzzing and her speech function was lost, making her unable to form complete sentences.
"You still love me a little bit, right?" Xi Mo asked her tentatively.
"We are already very sorry for Tidai, and I don't want to irritate him any more." Mingzhu changed the subject. Not long after Tidai's illness recovered, the doctor also said that there would be a chance of relapse, and once it recurred, it might never be cured.
She didn't dare and couldn't risk the future she was waiting for.
Lan Ximo's heart sank silently, sinking all the way to the abyss, sinking to the point where there was nowhere to sink. The fingers holding her tightly pulled away little by little, and his eyes gradually became cold.
Even if he has retreated to the point of no return, can't he still do it? Just because he hurt her, so he must treat him in such a cruel way?!
"Mingzhu, I also have a heart, and I will feel the pain." He let go of Mingzhu, his low and hoarse voice was cold and sad, and Mingzhu's heart trembled with pain as he listened to every word.
Mingzhu said nothing, and the room fell into a deserted state. Both of them seemed to have entered a dead end and could not get out.
Obviously no one wants to hurt the other, but they hurt each other all over.
Love is such a torture, but we still enjoy it.
*****
Lianlian followed Ji Xian out, while Xi Ting sat alone in the room, meditating, unable to sleep, her mind was confused, and she felt very sad.
Mu Ze broke the pot. Anyway, Xi Mo already hated himself so much, nothing could be worse than this. Lying on the bed, he turned his head and looked at Xi Ting's lonely and upright back, feeling a little regretful in his heart.
Among them, only Xi Ting was the most well-behaved and obedient. He never went against Lan Sichen's words. His life went exactly as Lan Sichen expected. The only thing he did wrong was that he helped himself hide the truth and was kicked out.
The fate of the Lan family.
Xi Ting carries all the burden of responsibility on his shoulders. In fact, he is just a man in his twenties, but he does not have the happiness and relaxation of ordinary men. He does not even dare to love...
It takes a lot of endurance to suppress your feelings day after day.
Mu Ze got up and suddenly sat next to him, and said seriously, "Xi Ting, how about you rely on me." Aren't you tired of supporting yourself like this?
Xi Ting's dim eyes fell on his beautiful and handsome face, and a faint smile overflowed from his thin lips, "I'm not interested in men."
"You know what I mean." Mu Ze's face was solemn, and his narrow eyes stared deeply at him, "It's not a solution for you to suppress it like this. Wouldn't it be possible if she didn't do it? Is it really impossible to find another woman to take your place?
"
He would rather Xi Ting find many, many women, it doesn't matter if they are men; as long as he doesn't see him suppressing himself like this, it makes him feel distressed to see him depressed.
The room fell into a long period of loneliness, like stagnant water without any waves. The dark eyes were deep, and there was a silent bitter smile on the corner of the mouth, as if saying to Mu Ze, but also as if saying to myself, "Yes! If it's not her, she can't do it..."
Is it really not possible?!”
If it works, then why has it been so difficult for me to move forward all these years?
When he knew about the grievances of the previous generation, he really didn't understand why Lan Ruixiu had been persistently in love with Silan all his life; he didn't understand why Lan Sichen would lose his self-esteem, appearance, and even his life because of his love for Silan.
; He didn’t understand why Helianze was willing to be with Lan Yunsheng, and Lan Yunsheng could even accept the children of Helianze and another woman.
Now he understands that they are just compromising on their feelings; when he deeply understands the torture of love, he knows that no matter what, he is willing to be in love, for the girl he has loved for so many years.
No matter whose daughter she is, no matter what kind of person she is.
"Lan Xiting, I really want to kill you!" Mu Ze gritted his teeth, but when he said this, he avoided his eyes and couldn't bear to look directly at him.
At least if you die, you won't have to live so hard for Lan Sangyu!
*
Lianlian bought gifts for Lan Sichen and his wife, Lan Ruixiu and his wife, Lan Yunsheng and his wife at the mall, and even for Ji Fengwen and his wife. A large bag of things was given to Ji Xian with a faint smile on his lips, helpless eyes flashing,
"Sang Yu, I have never been so embarrassed before on a business trip."
Lianlian smiled sheepishly, "I haven't seen them for a long time, and I miss them so much! I can't go back to accompany them during the New Year, so I have to trouble you!"
"You're welcome!" Ji Xian's eyes curled up, "I got a gift anyway, didn't I?"
A smile appeared on Lianlian's lips but it didn't reach her eyes. She turned around and went to choose a gift for Mingzhu. Everyone had one, including that person.
Ji Xian helped put her things in the car, checked her own things, and ate at a restaurant near the airport with Lian Lian. It was obvious that she was worried, so Ji Xian didn't say much, and just took care of her considerately.
Before getting on the plane, his warm palm fell on her head and rubbed it gently, "A person in Beijing needs to know how to take care of himself. If you have any problems, just call me if you don't want to go to them! We have been together for so many years.
Friends, you don’t have to be too polite, you know?”
"I know." Lianlian nodded and looked at him, "Thank you Ji Xian."
Although he didn't say why he was thanking you, Ji Xian knew that he just pursed his lips, smiled, and said softly: "Go back."
Lianlian nodded, turned around and left, not looking back to see Ji Xian who had been standing there looking at her.
It was around two o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to Xiao's house. Lianlian first gave gifts to Mu Ze and Xi Mo, and then wanted to give gifts to Mingzhu. Sister-in-law Rong said she was resting, so Lianlian didn't bother her. There was also a copy on the bed.
I looked at the dress for a long time and didn’t know whether I should give it away.
He only hesitated for a few seconds when he picked up the bag with his fingers, then turned to look for Xi Ting.
Xi Ting was reading in the room. When he saw her coming in, his eyes froze and he put down the book. His expression was calm and a smile appeared on his lips, "You are back and Ji Xian is gone?"
He asked knowingly, but besides that, what else could he say.
"Yes." Lianlian responded in a low voice, tightening the bag held by her fingers a little harder, biting her lip hesitantly, looking into his deep eyes, her voice pretending to be calm: "I bought a lot of gifts, this
It’s for you.”
There was a slight surprise in Xi Ting's eyes, and a smile spread from the center of his eyebrows. He took the gift from her and said, "Thank you, you have really grown up! You know how to give us New Year gifts!"
He said it unintentionally, but it sounded intentional. Lian Lian felt sour in his heart, and the smile at the corner of his mouth spread even wider, "Of course! I am your sister! If any of you dare to disobey me in the future, see how I deal with you."
Sister, these two words hurt not only Xi Ting's heart, but also Lian Lian's heart.
The sadness spread silently, the two people looked at each other, the bitter feelings spread, their hearts beat very fast, they obviously wanted to hug, but they could only clench their fingers to restrain their impulse.
"Um...I'm going out first." Lianlian was the first to look away, dropped a sentence in a hurry, and stumbled away without waiting for his answer.
Xi Ting's broken gaze pulled away from her back and fell on the bag in his hand. After his fingers trembled slightly, he took out a box with exquisite packaging. When he opened it, he found a bottle of very luxurious men's perfume, which he likes to use the most.
That brand.
She still remembers it, just like she can't forget it.
*
When Mingzhu got up from her nap, she heard Xi Ting's low and hoarse voice coming from the door, as if he wanted to talk to her about something.
"Come in." Mingzhu sat on the bed, fumbled for the cup on the bedside table, took it into her hand and took a sip of ice-cold water, her confused thoughts gradually clearing up.
Xi Ting wanted to talk to her about something, and Mingzhu knew it on the first afternoon when Xi Ting came; she had been waiting for Xi Ting, thinking that he would wait until after the new year, but she didn't expect that - she was probably trying to find something to distract her.
Attention.
Xi Ting walked in, closed the door gently, walked to the bed and sat down. His eyes fell on Mingzhu's pale face, and his tone showed concern, "Your face doesn't look very good. Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?"
"It's nothing, I just didn't sleep well, it's not a big deal. Don't bother the doctor." Mingzhu replied in a calm voice, put down the cup and said: "If you have anything to say, just tell me directly, and save the lengthy preparation."
"I know you may not want to talk about Mu Ze, but I think it is necessary for you to know the truth." Xi Ting sighed deeply, with a deep look in his eyes, "Mu Ze was taken advantage of by others when he treated you like that. His nature is not bad.
.”
Mingzhu's calm face showed no trace of emotion. She had already guessed that the topic Xi Ting was going to talk about might be related to Mu Ze. She replied with an indifferent voice, "Xi Ting, you should understand that if a person does something wrong, he or she will do something wrong. No excuse or reason can be used."
Pay for what he did."
"I know." Xi Ting nodded, with a trace of helplessness in his eyes, "It's just that Mingzhu, Mu Ze was really taken advantage of. He didn't grow up in a normal family since he was a child. He was laughed at since he was a child. Why?
Two fathers but no mother?! His mother took a sum of money and left him completely after he was born. He grew up without the care of his mother. While others have parents and a normal family, he does not have one.
No matter how much my mother loves him, she cannot replace his biological mother."
Mingzhu said nothing and listened quietly to what he said.
"Muze met his biological mother, Su Luo, in Florence. When Su Luo was young, she wanted to marry Helianze as his wife, so she planned to have a relationship with Helian and get pregnant. Originally, Helianze had no intention of marrying Helianze.
