Lei Yan sensed Xiao Muyou's depressed mood, came over with watermelon juice, sat down next to her, gently stroked her cheek, and said.
"It's almost October. Things will definitely be resolved before the end of the year. Then, I will accompany you back to Los Angeles to celebrate the New Year, okay?"
Lei Yan said so, and Xiao Muyou could only nod in agreement even though he was anxious.
"Okay, then I'll just wait, A Yan, we will always be together, right?"
Xiao Muyou suddenly felt sad in her heart. She didn't know whether it was because she saw Xiao Siluo's happiness or because she knew about Yu Nianxi and Lu Qingyu. She was afraid that she and Lei Yan would not be together in the end.
Lei Yan hugged Xiao Muyou tightly and said in a low voice but with absolute certainty.
"Of course, from the moment you provoked me that night, you are destined to be tied to me for the rest of your life. Unless I die, you can only be mine."
After saying that, Lei Yan kissed Xiao Muyou's red lips fiercely, and Xiao Muyou responded enthusiastically. The two of them were entangled tightly like this. For the time being, they put aside all the troubles and just wanted to deeply feel each other's warmth.
The sun is warm, the breeze is blowing, and the waves are gentle. On this small platform, two people who love each other have never been separated for a long time.
Until a hurried doorbell rang, the two people rubbed against each other and immediately separated. Xiao Muyou hurriedly arranged his somewhat messy clothes, while Lei Yan also wiped his lips and tugged on his clothes.
"It can't be those friends of yours."
This is Lei Yan's wooden house. After Xiao Muyou became nervous, he gradually calmed down. After all, their relationship was not affected by the fact that Lei Yan's friends knew about it.
Lei Yan frowned. At this point, Ouyang Jie should not have woken up from the wine, and Walu and Ye Xiao should not come over. Thinking about this, Lei Yan walked towards the door.
Lei Yan did not open the door immediately, but took a look through the peephole, then his face changed slightly, and he hurried back.
"Mu You, this is your little brother."
"Ah...well..."
Xiao Muyou screamed in fright, but then she covered her mouth again, stood up from the chair, and then grinned.
"Ah...it hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much."
Lei Yan didn't expect Xiao Muyou to be so excited, so he immediately went over to help her sit down again, and then whispered.
"Shall I open the door?"
Lei Yan was asking Xiao Muyou what he meant. Xiao Muyou grabbed Lei Yan's hand and was so nervous and flustered that he spoke incoherently.
"He, why is he here?"
"Okay, don't be nervous. Doesn't your elder brother know this? You said before that your younger brother is the best person for you. Don't worry, I will open the door, okay?"
After Lei Yan's words, Xiao Muyou calmed down a little, and she nodded.
"I'll go with you."
However, Lei Yan shook his head, pointed at Xiao Muyou's still somewhat red and swollen ankle, and said.
"No, I'll just go and sit down obediently."
After saying that, Lei Yan walked towards the door. Xiao Muyou poked her head. Even though she had calmed down just now, her heart was beating fast. It was obvious that she was still a little nervous.
The door opened, and Xiao Yichen stood at the door. He and Lei Yan looked at each other, and finally Xiao Yichen took the initiative to speak.
"Hello, Mr. Lei, I am Xiao Yichen, Xiao Muyou's brother."
Lei Yan gently shook Xiao Yichen's hand and nodded.
"Hello, I know."
However, Lei Yan did not step aside when he spoke. When Xiao Yichen saw this, he smiled slightly and his eyes drifted towards the room. However, all the wooden houses here are well designed. There is a porch at the door. Standing at the door, you can't see anything in the room.
situation.
Xiao Yichen spoke again.
"Mr. Lei, is it convenient for me to go in?"
Lei Yan originally thought that by blocking him like this, Xiao Yichen would give up the idea of coming in, but now it seems that Xiao Yichen's purpose is clear, and he should know that Xiao Muyou is here.
Lei Yan did not hesitate for too long, stepped aside and said.
"Please come in."
Xiao Yichen strode in, passed through the bedroom on the side, and saw the big bed with flat quilts. A trace of relief flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the platform in the distance, because there was a head looking towards him.
.
"It seems that my guess is correct, Mu You, aren't you going to explain it?"
Xiao Yichen saw Xiao Muyou sitting on the recliner looking at him, smiled slightly, and spoke. Lei Yan followed behind but did not speak. He knew that Xiao Yichen was waiting for Xiao Muyou's personal answer.
Lei Yan glanced at Xiao Muyou, then went to the bar, poured Xiao Yichen a glass of juice, and then walked to the platform.
There were only two lounge chairs on the platform. At this time, Xiao Yichen had already sat down on another lounge chair. The two brothers and sisters looked at each other and neither of them took the initiative to speak. In the silence, sparks flew everywhere. Lei Yan put down the iced juice and broke the silence.
.
"Do you need me to avoid it?"
"No, A Yan, you sit here."
Xiao Muyou put his legs down and patted the empty space next to him. Lei Yan did not follow him, but looked at Xiao Yichen. Seeing that Xiao Yichen was silent, he said the last word.
"Okay, you two brothers and sisters will talk first, and I'll go change my clothes."
With that said, Lei Yan left the terrace, leaving the space to the two brothers and sisters.
"Brother, how did you know I'm here?"
Xiao Muyou finally spoke. She was still very curious about how Xiao Yichen could tell that there was something going on between her and Lei Yan. Logically speaking, she and Lei Yan had been avoiding suspicion in front of others in the past two days, so they shouldn't have revealed any flaws.
Xiao Yichen smiled faintly, looked at his compatriot sister with disdain, and said quietly.
"Don't forget, we have known each other since our mother's womb. I can tell what you are thinking just by looking at you. Yes, you and Mr. Lei have indeed kept a distance in the past two days, but the eyes cannot deceive others. You
Haven’t you noticed that whenever you two appear on the same occasion, your eyes can’t help but drift towards each other?”
When Xiao Yichen said this, Xiao Muyou felt a little guilty. Well, this is true. As long as she is with Lei Yan, her eyes can't help but look for Lei Yan. It's just that Xiao Yichen is too keen.
, and you discovered it based on these?
"Don't look at me like that. I was just suspicious at first, but I just found out from my elder brother that you and Mr. Lei's cabin are together. I'm 50% sure. Before coming here, I'll go
I went to your place, but after ringing the doorbell for a long time, no one opened the door, so I came here to give it a try, but I didn’t expect you to actually be here."
When Xiao Muyou heard this, he immediately sighed to himself. It's not always a good thing if the people around him are too smart, and they can't even keep any secrets.
Xiao Muyou looked at Xiao Yichen with a guilty conscience and said.
"Brother, are you here to punish me?"
"Am I such a person? I just want to know what is going on with you?"
Xiao Yichen said angrily that the conversation during the previous meeting made him vaguely feel that Xiao Muyou was hiding something from him. He did not expect it to be this. Thinking of Lei Yan's identity, Xiao Yichen frowned.
Seeing Xiao Yichen's expression, Xiao Muyou's heart skipped a beat again. She was afraid that Xiao Yichen would have the same attitude as Xiao Yiheng.
"Brother, you've seen us here, why are you still asking these questions? A-Yan and I are boyfriend and girlfriend."
Hearing Xiao Muyou's answer, Xiao Yichen sighed softly and thought, it is indeed the case, but then, there was a trace of worry in his heart, worried about Lei Yan's identity.
Xiao Yichen glanced at the room, but did not see Lei Yan. Then he looked at his sister and said.
"Since you have been hiding it from your family, it seems that you know Mr. Lei's past identity. You should know what harm it will bring to the family if you two get together."
"Brother, so you also want to object to us being together, right?"
Xiao Muyou did not answer directly, but asked a question. When Xiao Yichen heard this, he immediately captured some information. Therefore, among the three young masters of the Xiao family, this young master was the most attentive.
"Also? So, I'm not the only one who knows, right?"
When Xiao Yichen said this, he suddenly thought of Xiao Yiheng's strange expression when he asked Xiao Muyou where he lived, and he suddenly understood.
"So, eldest brother also knows about you and Mr. Lei? He actually helped you hide it from mom and dad?"
Seeing Xiao Yichen guessing everything bit by bit, Xiao Muyou said helplessly.
"Brother, can you stop being so smart? Chatting with you doesn't give me any sense of accomplishment."
"Don't be so talkative. Tell me, what are you going to do? Keep it secret from your family?"
"How is it possible? I still want to get married and have children with A-Yan. Besides, if I really want to hide it all the time, I am willing to do it. Mommy can't let me stay single forever."
Xiao Muyou said repeatedly, Xiao Yichen on the side said with a wicked smile.
"You really have a lot on your mind."
"It's too much. I love Ah Yan, and Ah Yan loves me too. Can't we get married and have children? You and Fei Er can be together, why can't Ah Yan and I?"
Xiao Muyou said angrily. She thought that among the people in the family, besides Xiao Siluo, Xiao Yichen was the one who could understand her best, but now it seems that she still took it for granted.
Hearing what Xiao Muyou said, Xiao Yichen's eyes dimmed, he narrowed his eyes, and his tone was much colder than before.
"So, are you serious? You should know that with Mr. Lei's status, it is difficult for the elders in the family to accept him. Even so, are you going to go all the way?"
When Xiao Muyou heard this, he nodded without thinking.
"Brother, I have thought about it very clearly. If I can't be with him, my life may be meaningless. Do you want me to be alone all my life?"
"Hmph, what you said is serious. There are many men suitable for you. Without him Lei Yan, there are also Li Yan and Chen Yan."
Hearing what Xiao Yichen said, Xiao Muyou was a little stunned. She never thought that such words would come out of Xiao Yichen's mouth. Of the three brothers in the family, only Xiao Yichen was the most free and unrestrained. Could it be that she had seen it wrong before.
"Brother, what if it's you? Mommy and daddy don't accept Ferdo and insist on you marrying a woman and having children. Will you accept it? Will you be happy?"
Xiao Muyou did not answer, but asked Xiao Yichen. Xiao Yichen fell silent after hearing this.
But there was only a moment of silence, and then he spoke again.
"Mu You, have you made your decision? Do you have to go all the way to the dark side? I think you know very well that this choice means that the road ahead for you and him will be very difficult."
"Why must it be difficult, little brother, for me, as long as I am with the person I love, the road ahead will be happy and sweet. I will not be afraid of any difficulties."
