Ling Luo returned to the house with a very heavy heart. Xuanyuan Yu was sitting by the ice lamp, waiting for her.
"Luo'er, you're back." Xuanyuan Yu cast his eyes behind her and asked, "Where's Ze? Why don't you see him?"
"He just had a quarrel with me, and his head is too hot. Let's go outside and cool down for a while." Ling Luo poured a cup of tea, put it to his lips and took a sip to moisten his throat.
Of course, she would not reveal even a single word to Yu about the conversation she had just had with Ze.
"I'm going to find him." Xuanyuan Yu stood up quickly, looking anxious, and said, "He is not in good health and cannot be blown out in the cold wind like this."
Ling Luo frowned and said, "Don't worry, he is in good health. Yu, you are overprotecting him."
Xuanyuan Yu didn't say anything, picked up a thick fur cloak, opened the door and went out.
Ling Luo's breathing stagnated and her heart froze.
Does he care about Xuanyuan Ze that much?
Does he know what kind of person he is desperately protecting? Does he know what is waiting for him in the future?
Ling Luo's eyes fell dullly on the ice lamp shining with fireflies, and there were waves of pain in his chest.
*.*.*.*.*
Xuanyuan Yu held a thick fur fur in his hand, calling his brother's name in the fierce cold wind.
"Ze, where are you?"
He ran and shouted, and finally, on the other side of the huge ice lake, he saw the lonely figure of Xuanyuan Ze walking alone.
"Ozawa, stop making trouble and come back quickly!"
When Xuanyuan Ze heard Xuanyuan Yu's call, he stopped and turned his head. His beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with sadness and loneliness.
The two brothers looked at each other across the vast glacial lake.
"Come here! Where are you going?" Xuanyuan Yu's face darkened and became a little stern.
"I...I'm going back to Jialan." Xuanyuan Ze's thin lips moved slightly, and what he said was very frustrating.
"Who allowed you to go back?" Xuanyuan Yu asked sharply, "Did you get my permission? You didn't even say hello to me. Do you still see me as your brother in your eyes?"
"I……"
Xuanyuan Ze's nose was red from the cold, and he was twitching. He didn't know whether he was sobbing or sniffling.
"Don't make me say it a second time! You're already in your twenties and you still have people to worry about. Have you gone back further?"
They were obviously very harsh words, but when Xuanyuan Ze heard them, he felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.
From a long time ago, he knew that even if the whole world abandoned him, no one would.
He is gentle and domineering, and he silently bears all the suffering for himself.
He goes out of his way to protect the person who hurt him the most.
"elder brother……"
"Are you still saying that you want me to take you back personally like you did when you were a child?"
"No need." A layer of embarrassment appeared on Xuanyuan Ze's face, "I'll go back by myself."
When he was very young, whenever he encountered something and got upset and lost his temper, he would hide in a corner.
And whenever that happens, I can always find him immediately and sneak him out.
Xuanyuan Ze returned the same way, walked a long circle around the ice lake, and returned to Xuanyuan Yu's side again.
Xuanyuan Yu put the thick fur cloak in his hand on Xuanyuan Ze's shoulders, then supported his shoulders and walked towards the house.
"Why did you quarrel with Luo'er?"
"She..." Xuanyuan Ze paused and said, "She doesn't like me. She thinks I'm not good to you."
