“Fu Yanci, although Sister Xiaocao is Aunt Lan’s daughter, in my heart, she is my own sister. I haven’t seen her for a year, so I’m not going back tonight.”
"Then I won't go back either."
"...In that case, you'll have to sleep in my room by yourself. I'm going to sleep in Sister Xiaocao's room."
"..."
Before Fu Yanci could nod, his phone rang softly.
Xiao Bao, who was out for a walk with Li Xueqing, sent a message: "Uncle, I'm not going back with you tonight. I'm staying at Ye Xiaoli's house. Sister Xiaocao said it's going to snow tonight, and it might be the last snow of the year. Ye Xiaoli, Sister Xiaocao, and I have agreed to build a snowman together tomorrow morning."
The little guy typed the long string of words exceptionally fluently, without even using pinyin.
They wanted to stay, but Ali was always circling around Lan Lan, and Xiao Bao was always following Li Xueqing around.
He could only accept Aunt Lan's awkward but polite smile.
After hesitating for a moment, Fu Yanci decided that he would not stay and ruin the atmosphere.
As the car drove out of the Ye family villa area, Fu Yanci couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
No rivals in love.
However, the number of people who wanted to share Ali's time with him was countless.
Then, thinking that the start of school would be just around the corner after New Year's Eve, and Ye Li would be spending five out of seven days a week in the school dormitory, Fu Yanci thought that he could no longer tolerate it.
The car was parked on the side of the road, and Fu Yanci sent a WeChat message to Ye Li.
When the phone rang, Ye Li was helping Lan Lan pack her suitcase.
Li Xueqing had a silk scarf of the same style but a different color as the one given to Aunt Lan.
For Aunt Lan's fragrance, Li Xueqing had a bottle of the same brand but a different scent.
In short, whatever gift Lanlan prepared for Aunt Lan, there would inevitably be one for her mother as well.
There were also perfumes, brooches, and other small accessories for her; it was clear they were bought casually while shopping, not something she rushed to buy before going home.
Ye Li smiled, her eyes crinkling, "Sister, you've been very fair in your dealings with everyone."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he noticed the tie and cufflinks at the bottom of the suitcase.
Knowing it must be for Ye Mushen, Ye Li picked up the box and shook it, "Thank you on behalf of Dad..."
Ye Mushen's death was sudden, and Lan Lan happened to be on a business trip abroad at the time.
Both Aunt Lan and Ye Li said that she didn't need to come back, otherwise she wouldn't be of much help and would only delay her work.
After weighing the pros and cons, Lan Lan didn't return, but instead transferred all the money she had saved over the years to Ye Li.
Not long after, the money was returned intact.
Lan Lan only then learned that Ye Li's marriage to Fu Yanci was arranged by Master Fu.
"Xiao Li..."
Lan Lan sat down next to Ye Li and patted her head. "Is Master Fu good to you?"
Ye Li smiled brightly, "It's great. Didn't you see everything?"
Lan Lan wanted to say that there is no love without a reason in this world, but not wanting to spoil Ye Li's mood, she smiled and nodded, "That's good."
Ye Li squinted at Lan Lan and said, "Sister, something's definitely wrong."
Lan Lan paused.
Ye Li analyzed, "In previous years you would only come back on New Year's Eve, but this year you said you were coming back much earlier, but the return date was changed again and again, and suddenly you came back today. And..."
Looking down into her eyes, Ye Li raised her chin. "Tell me honestly, are you in a relationship?"
Lan Lan was startled and subconsciously turned to look in the mirror. "Is it that obvious?"
"Of course."
Ye Li smiled, her eyes crinkling, "A woman in love radiates light, and you are one right now."
"Sis, tell me, what's the situation between you and your brother-in-law... no, not yet, what about him? Is he good to you?"
Ye Li's words immediately silenced Lan Lan.
After a long while, she leaned back on the bed and sighed softly, "Xiao Li, I think... I've fallen for someone I shouldn't have."
? ? ?
Ye Li's eyes lit up instantly.
