In the afternoon in Haicheng, an open-air reception was being held on the lawn of a resort. To be precise, it was Xiao Yichen and Yin Muyu's engagement reception.
While drinking and drinking, Xiao Yichen slowly walked out of the crowd and walked to the woods not far away to hide in peace. He was too tired, from the moment he agreed to his mother's engagement to Yin Muyu. This kind of tiredness was mainly mental, but more than physical.
A hundred times more painful.
He couldn't let go of Xie Yunshu, but his mother was in critical condition. He couldn't make her angry anymore and added this happy event that she loved. He hoped that her illness would get better soon and she would be transferred out of the special care unit as soon as possible.
There were winding corridors in the woods. Under the shade, Xiao Yichen saw Du Ming sitting on a corner, holding a half glass of whiskey and looking at him with a smile.
There was no one else around. Xiao Yichen walked to Du Ming and sat down. He glanced at him sideways and said dissatisfiedly: "I asked you to accompany me. Is this how you do it? Hiding in a deserted place and enjoying the cool breeze and drinking wine?"
Du Ming smiled fearlessly and joked: "Brother, this is just an engagement anyway. You will be free for a long time in the future. I will definitely accompany you every day and night. There is no need to rush for a while." He patted Xiao Yichen on the shoulder, which meant a lot.
Xiao Yichen was never one to hang out at nightclubs, and he didn't care much about the impending loss of freedom. He said calmly: "Speaking of which, even if I get married, Mu Yu won't trap me. I'm still free."
She understands that she is not an unreasonable person and will not try to control him.
Du Ming said with a smile: "Hey, you are sure that people like you, and you can use it as arbitrary capital." He seemed to have foreseen that Xiao Yichen would go home late and get drunk because of Miss Yin's liking for him, and have sex with other people.
Women are entangled with each other, but Miss Yin doesn't dare to say anything to him. She can only take care of him. As for whether the woman he was entangled with is the same woman from before, it is unknown.
Wanton, how can he be so wanton? Both parents are not simple characters. If he goes to find Xie Yunshu again, I don’t know what kind of uproar it will cause. As for Yin Muyu, she and I are innocent, and he doesn’t want to hurt her heart.
After pondering for a moment, he said lightly: "If I can't give her happiness, I will give her freedom." He longed for relative freedom and believed she would give it to him.
Du Ming objected: "I guess she would prefer to be able to stick to you every day. She will also smile at you as brightly as a flower like a sunflower and stare at you at any time."
Xiao Yichen was so angry that he turned his head to look at Du Ming coldly, frowned slightly and said, "Do you have to say these things that give me a headache?" He himself was not sure if what Du Ming said would really happen.
How should I resist and how long can I resist?
Du Ming swung the glass, drank the remaining wine and crushed ice together, and sighed: "I don't want to say it, but she has already stuck to it." Looking ahead, at one end of the corridor, the girl in a light pink dress was standing.
Walking this way, his eyes were fixed on Xiao Yichen, smiling sweetly.
Before she came closer, Xiao Yichen was helpless and lowered his voice and asked Du Ming beside him: "Tell me, what does she like about me?" I wonder if he will say that classic saying in the future: What do you like about me?
Isn’t it okay to change it?
Du Ming didn't dare to stay and make light bulbs anymore, so he replied: "You have to ask her about this, I don't know." He then stood up and looked at the distance between the two people gradually shortening with a smile.
Of course, Xiao Yichen would not ask Yin Muyu such a question, and said angrily: "Okay, I'd better stop talking." He didn't know how to interrupt her love for him, and the only thing he could do was not to help the evildoer.
Feeling his emotions, Du Ming smiled even more and said goodbye with a playful smile: "Don't be cautious, we will be a couple soon, please forgive me for not accompanying you." Taking his empty wine glass, he walked out of the woods on one side,
After a while he disappeared.
Yin Muyu gradually approached Xiao Yichen, and when she reached Xiao Yichen, she slightly raised her head to look at him standing in front of her. She smiled affectionately and asked, "Yichen, why are you here? I've been looking for you everywhere." She stood close to him and reached out to hold him.
his arm.
In order to stop her tendency to lean in less abruptly, he helped her and they sat down on the bench together, but the distance between them unknowingly increased.
It was very quiet in the woods and very cool under the green shade. He replied without leaving a trace: "There are too many people over there, so come here and be quiet for a while." Most of them were relatives and business partners of both parties, but he felt bored even if he stayed with them for more than a minute.
Unexpectedly, she actually comforted him: "Don't mind it too much, just bear with it and deal with it. It's only for one day." She quietly sat down next to him again.
Xiao Yichen looked sideways at her, stood up for a moment, and said calmly: "I'm fine, I'm going back first." He was about to walk away.
Yin Muyu hurriedly stood up and grabbed his sleeves, "Hey! Yichen, I just came. Please sit with me for a while. They don't need anyone to accompany them." At this moment, she couldn't look forward to more, she just wanted him to stay.
, the two of them stayed quiet for a while.
The small movements of her feet could not escape his eyes, and he hesitated: "You..." Xiao Yichen was in a dilemma, whether he should say it or not.
"Huh?" Yin Muyu had never seen him hesitate to speak, and was puzzled.
He lowered his head to observe her right foot and asked, "What's wrong with your foot? I think you're not walking naturally." She was staggering when she walked over before, and just when she got up to chase him, her right foot limped obviously.
She pursed her lips and said with embarrassment: "The new high-heeled shoes she wore today are a bit scratched on her feet." She was embarrassed to have him stare at her feet again, so she turned slightly sideways.
The sides of the light pink shoes were stained with her blood, and the lower part of her ankle bone was bruised and bleeding and then condensed. This must be very painful, but as a young lady with delicate skin and tender flesh, she could bear it.
Xiao Yichen felt very sorry, so he helped her sit down again and asked, "Why didn't you put a band-aid on it?" As far as he knew, girls would wear band-aids to protect their feet if they were rubbed by shoes.
Yin Muyu had never thought of this before, so she was busy looking for him. She wondered: "Where can I find a band-aid here?" This is a cocktail party, not at home, and there is a medical kit.
He knelt down to inspect her wounds and said to her, "Let the servant help you change into a pair of flat shoes." These high heels could no longer be worn. If this continued, both ankles would be worn out.
But she stubbornly said: "No, I will wear these pairs."
Xiao Yichen looked at her, wondering why she was so stubborn and unrepentant. Was it because she loved beauty? He also admitted that her outfit was quite beautiful.
With her head bowed in infinite shyness, Yin Muyu murmured: "Because I'm wearing these shoes, I'm on your shoulders, so I'm a better match for you." She didn't dare to look up at him, and she was cheering for this confession in her heart.
Xiao Yichen was stunned. It turned out that he had underestimated her love for him and her sincerity.
