On the second floor, Xiao Yingxi took a shower in a daze and walked out of the bathroom wearing a cartoon nightgown. She looked at the pink lace quilt and the childish pajamas that were inconsistent with her age. She felt inexplicably irritated.
Rubbing her hair, she walked out of the bedroom and walked into the cold room opposite her.
The moment Xiao Yingxi closed the door, in the study room with the door ajar, Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen were standing at the door, with a trace of worry on their faces.
"This child went to sleep in Si Nian's room again. You go and take her back to the room."
Mo Yurou opened the door of the study room and said to Xiao Zichen beside her. After saying that, she was about to walk to the room Xiao Yingxi walked into just now, but was stopped by Xiao Zichen.
"Forget it, Si Nian isn't coming back anyway, so let her sleep there. Maybe that way, she can sleep soundly."
"Hey, what do you think that kid Si Nian thinks? We won't object, why does he..."
Mo Yurou couldn't see her daughter being so sad, and she complained a little bit about Mas Nian in her heart, but Xiao Zichen looked calm at the side.
"Well, you can't force things like love. Si Nian has always regarded Luoluo as his sister, just like you and me. If it weren't for what Luoluo said after drinking, we would consider letting these two
Are the kids together?"
"Yes, since we don't object, why did Si Nian still run away? He left for three years, and when he came back this time, he actually brought back Miss Ou. Doesn't he know that this would make Luo Luo sad?"
Mo Yurou was offended by Mas Nian's indifference and decisiveness. Sometimes, such determination is the most hurtful.
Seeing Mo Yurou's resentful look, Xiao Zichen hugged her in his arms and comforted her in a good voice.
"Well, the matter of love does not just mean that we are parents. When we adopted Si Nian, we did not intend to raise him as a son-in-law. We all treat him equally, right? In this case, shall we?
We should respect Si Nian's choice. If he only has brother-sister affection for Luo Luo, do we have to threaten him with kindness? In this way, do you think Luo Luo will be happy?"
Mo Yurou was silent. Indeed, from the beginning, they regarded Si Nian as their own child, and even decided to train him to be the heir of the group when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Let's go. Although this child Luo Luo has been doted on by everyone since she was a child, she is not as weak as imagined. I believe she will be fine after a sleep. As for Si Nian, if he really likes Miss Ou, we should also bless him
.”
"But, I..."
Mo Yurou wanted to say something else, but Xiao Zichen didn't give her a chance and took her back to the bedroom.
Haotianju became completely quiet.
In a certain room of the Haoting Hotel, Masnian helped Ou Qianyi deliver her luggage to the room. He did not sit down but looked at the time and said.
"It's getting late. You've worked hard today. Go to bed early. I'll take you around Luo City tomorrow."
It seemed that Masnian had no intention of staying overnight. In fact, Ou Qianyi had already expected it, but when Masnian said this, she inevitably felt a little disappointed.
"Are you so anxious to go back?"
Seeing Mas Nian coming to the door, Ou Qianyi chased after him and hugged him from behind.
Masnian stiffened, glanced at the intertwined hands at his waist, frowned slightly, then decisively opened them, turned around, looked at Ou Qianyi, and smiled slightly.
"It's almost twelve o'clock."
These words were enough for Ou Qianyi to understand that Mas Nian was really anxious to leave.
Ou Qianyi frowned slightly as she looked at the man in front of her who had a handsome appearance but was always stained with a layer of frost.
Immediately, Ou Qianyi hooked her hands around Masnian's neck and spoke softly.
"Si Nian, please stay with me tonight, okay? You said that as long as you bring me back to meet your parents, we will confirm our relationship. Now, I have already met your family."
With that said, Ou Qianyi stood up on tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss Masnian's lips.
Masnian didn't dodge, but he didn't respond in any way. He just stood there quietly. It wasn't until Ou Qianyi took off his coat that Masnian reacted, but this reaction was not what Ou Qianyi wanted.
of.
In the meantime, Masyan gently pulled away from Ou Qianyi, held her shoulders with both hands, opened his thin lips lightly, and said in an indifferent tone.
"Qianyi, I said, you don't have to be so anxious. Since I have chosen you, you will be my Masnian's girlfriend and future wife. There are some things I want to keep in the future."
With that said, Mas young sighed, hugged Ou Qianyi into his arms, patted her back gently, left a kiss on her forehead, and whispered softly.
"You go to bed early and call me when you wake up. Good night."
After saying that, Masnian turned around, opened the door, and walked out of the room.
After the door closed, Ou Qianyi was still reminiscing about the warm hug just now. She was not a greedy woman. As long as Mas Nian gave her a little tenderness, she could reminisce about it for a long time.
But when Ou Qianyi came back to her senses and looked at the empty room and the silent night, she still couldn't hide the faint trace of loss in her eyes.
After Masnian left the hotel, he got in the car, but did not leave.
Looking at this familiar city, all his beautiful memories are in this city, and the most important people he cares about are also in this city.
As a lucky man who came out of a ravine, Masnian has always cherished everything he has now, so he has been guarding it carefully, for fear that he would accidentally lose this hard-won family and friendship.
Suddenly, the screen of the mobile phone placed aside flashed. Masnian looked sideways and saw a birthday blessing.
Masnian opened the WeChat ID he was familiar with. Over the years, he would receive the same text message at the last minute of this day every year.
"Brother, happy birthday, I wish you happiness every day."
There is also a funny smiley face on the back.
Masnian looked at this birthday blessing, but couldn't laugh, and his expression seemed to be deeper and more solemn.
With a click, Masnian logged out of WeChat, but when he saw the screensaver on his phone, he became even more irritated.
The screen saver on the mobile phone was randomly captured by Mas Nian on Xiao Yingxi's eighteenth birthday. Xiao Yingxi specially made a look that day, wearing an evening dress given by him, just like the holy goddess walking out of the painting.
But you can't watch it from a distance and don't play with it.
But on that day, the relationship between them seemed to have changed, causing his originally calm heart to stir up waves and surge. Even after three years of hard work, he still couldn't calm down.
Seeing the time jump to zero, Masnian took a deep breath, thinking that it was so late and everyone in the villa should be asleep, so he drove out of the Haoting Hotel parking lot.
A car light broke the tranquility of the villa. Masnian got out of the car and walked into the villa softly.
The villa was much quieter than he imagined. In the corridor on the first floor, a light lit up one by one with his footsteps. Looking at the festive decorations in the living room, he didn't look carefully when he came back.
Masnian did not stay on the second floor for long. The suitcase originally placed in the entrance hall was no longer there. It was probably taken to his bedroom by the servant.
Mas Young quietly went up to the second floor. He didn't want to disturb anyone, so he walked to his bedroom door in the dark, pushed the door open and went in.
Bang...the light in the room turned on. The next second, Masnian's face changed slightly and his body became stiff.
On the big bed in the room, Xiao Yingxi fell into a deep sleep. The large quilt had already been kicked away by her. Xiao Yingxi turned sideways, holding a pillow with both hands, with a long, slender white leg resting on the pillow. Her nightgown was also worn by her.
The strange sleeping position slid to the top of the thigh.
Her long black hair was spread messily on her clothes, and a few strands of black hair covered half of Xiao Yingxi's face.
Perhaps due to the alcohol, Xiao Yingxi's cheeks turned red, adding a bit of charm to her already fair skin.
Masnian stood at the door, looking at the seductive scene in front of him, his heart beating uncontrollably, but the next second, he turned around resolutely, with even a hint of guilt on his face.
Masnian did not stay any longer, and did not even dare to look back. He walked straight out of the bedroom. The moment he closed the door again, he hesitated at the door for a while, then turned around and walked towards a room next to him.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Xiao Zichen appeared in the corridor wearing clothes.
"Sinian."
When Masnian heard the voice, he turned around and looked at the man in front of him who was more profound and dignified than him, feeling in awe.
"dad."
Masnian spoke respectfully.
Xiao Zichen didn't say much, but walked to the door of Masnian's bedroom and said.
"I guess that girl thinks you won't come back tonight, so you should take her back to the room. This child has liked to stick to you since she was a child, and she still hasn't changed now."
With that said, Xiao Zichen reached out to open the door, but the next second, Masnian stopped him.
"Dad, no need, I'll go sleep in Yingze's room. Luoluo has been a light sleeper since she was a child, so don't wake her up."
After saying that, Masnian had already walked towards Xiao Yingze's bedroom, but just when he was about to open the door and enter, Xiao Zichen spoke.
"Si Nian, is Miss Ou the person you identify?"
Who is Xiao Zichen? He is over fifty years old and has read countless people. The interaction between Mas Nian and Ou Qianyi tonight cannot escape his eyes. Xiao Zichen believes that Mo Yurou has also noticed this.
Masnian's hand on the doorknob paused, then turned around, showed a slight smile, and said.
"I like Ou Qianyi very much, she completely meets my criteria for choosing a spouse."
Hearing this answer, Xiao Zichen frowned slightly, looked at the son in front of him who was taller than himself, sighed softly, walked over slowly, and said seriously.
"Si Nian, among the three children, you are the one who least worries your parents. Over the years, you, the eldest brother, have done a very competent job and taken good care of Yingze and Luoluo. Now, Dad has something to say to you.
Say, your mother and I have always wanted the three of you to find your own happiness. We never care about worldly opinions, we only pursue the life we want, do you understand?"
How could Masnian not understand what Xiao Zichen meant, but he always valued this family more than his personal happiness, and protecting this family was his greatest wish in this life.
