"Master, Master..." Chu Yan trotted all the way, out of breath from exhaustion, but she couldn't catch up with the person walking in front.
That back figure seemed to be the other side that he could never reach. Only when she stopped could he truly catch up.
Suddenly, the person walking in front stopped and Chu Yan came to her side in three steps and two steps, like a child who had done something wrong, hesitating about what to say.
"I'm sorry... Taifu..." He knew that he had embarrassed her today.
"Sorry for what?" Yu Buhuan turned his head and looked at him.
Chu Yan nodded and whispered: "I am so useless that I let the master be treated like this."
Those brothers were really just smiling at him, but they were so unscrupulous at the banquet.
It's all because he has so little authority, otherwise the brothers wouldn't dare to treat Taifu like this.
Yu Buhuan folded his arms and looked at the fat man in front of him with calm eyes: "You didn't do anything wrong, why do you need to say sorry?"
Chu Yan raised her head in surprise: "Master, aren't you angry?"
"I'm angry, but it's not because of you." Huo Yubu laughed: "What? Are you afraid that I will stew your peanut candy and eat it after I get angry?"
As if being told something central, Chu Yan laughed naively.
Yu Buhuan snorted contemptuously: "I, Yu Buhuan, am not an indiscriminate person. I will remember today's humiliation, but the person who should remember it more should be you."
Chu Yan said: "I am the elder brother, why should I hold grudges? They are young..."
"Shut up, don't you see how they look like that? Do they think of you as their brother?"
Because of her words, the expression on Chu Yan's face became dull, as if someone had stabbed her. Chu Yan shrugged his shoulders.
That's right, they never considered him a brother.
Fortunately, when they were young, he often took them to play hide-and-seek. Everyone liked to surround him and play with him. If their father punished them, he, the older brother, would always take the responsibility.
I remember that one time, the sixth brother broke his father's beloved thumb ring and was crying and did not dare to return to the palace. He went to tell his father instead of his brother, but he was beaten ten times later.
But I don’t know since when, the brothers have become more and more alienated from him. No one is chasing after him anymore and shouting, big brother, big brother...
No one even watched him fly a kite.
Thinking of this, Chu Yan sighed deeply.
"Maybe I'm too fat and my brothers don't like it." Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other reason.
I remember taking a boat trip to the lake last year. As soon as he got on the boat, the father-in-law who was rowing suddenly overturned into the water, and the princes who were sitting with him also fell into the water.
From then on, no one wanted to sit with him on lake tours.
Chu Yan looked up at the clear starry night sky, showing a rarely shown expression of pity.
Sometimes it is difficult for you to understand a person's behavior, but if you observe that person in the environment in which he or she grew up, you may be able to understand.
At least, that's what Yu Buhuan thinks.
For example, why is Chu Yan so arrogant? Because he is often looked down upon by his brothers. Only arrogance can fill the void in his heart.
After a while, Chu Yan exhaled and pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Master, don't be angry, I'm stupid, I'm stupid... You don't need to tell me this, I know it myself." After saying that, he took the photo.
He patted his belly, made two banging noises, and forced a smile: "I look like this... Even if you want to like me, I'm afraid you won't be able to like me."
