When night fell and the lights in the Marquis' Mansion began to light up one by one, Leng Luoli and Bai Xue finally stepped out of the Shen family's gate.
At this time, the lanterns on both sides of the street emitted a dim light, lengthening their shadows.
Bai Xue was indeed a very sensible woman. When Leng Luoli offered to take her home, she immediately understood what he meant and realized that it meant she should leave at the right time.
So, she walked towards Leng Luoli's carriage with a smile and graceful movements.
But just before she got in the car, she was so smart and thought no one noticed that she secretly threw a seductive glance at Gu Yunchen.
After doing all this, she got on the carriage with satisfaction and a smile on her face. As the sound of the wheels rolled away, she finally disappeared in front of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.
But she didn't notice that Leng Luoli was staring at the carriage that was gradually moving away, with a cold look in his eyes.
However, when he slowly turned his head and cast his gaze at Gu Yunchen standing beside him, the cold expression disappeared instantly, replaced by a gentle smile.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his subtle smile was as warm as the spring sun, which made people feel warm.
"Isn't she cute?" Leng Luoli suddenly asked, his voice soft and charming.
Gu Yunchen was a little confused by this sudden question. He was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Who?"
"Xiaoxue."
Leng Luoli replied softly, with a barely perceptible hint of intimacy in his tone.
Hearing this, Gu Yunchen suddenly recalled the words his mother had "said", and a sense of vigilance suddenly surged in his heart.
He quickly gathered his thoughts and responded calmly, "Oh, so you're talking about your fiancée."
"I was so busy talking to you at my house just now that I didn't even have time to see what she looked like. Now I have no memory of her at all."
But the smile on Leng Luoli's lips became more and more genuine. Perhaps he was pleased by Gu Yunchen's words just now, and he immediately burst into laughter.
"Haha, no way? It's so exaggerated! Is it necessary to be so secretive? We are good brothers who have risked our lives together! What does my fiancée look like? Can't you even take a look at her?"
If you don't look at her, and you run into her on the street someday, and she greets you with good intentions, but you look bewildered and don't know her at all, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?"
Gu Yunchen snorted disdainfully and responded, "Haha, but isn't she your wife yet?"
Leng Luoli raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a half-smile: "What's the matter? Could it be that after she really marries me, you want to see her beauty?"
Gu Yunchen crossed his arms and argued convincingly: "If she hadn't been able to marry you, who would know whether you two would have ended up together?
If you hadn't married her, then it wouldn't matter to me whether I recognized her or not. If it weren't for you, she and I would just be strangers with no connection at all."
Yes, the truth is so simple and clear, so please stop speculating about our relationship and stop being suspicious all day long, fearing that I have some unclear and ambiguous relationship with your fiancée.
I was even worried that we had an affair, and you even killed her?
As a good brother, Gu Yunchen really doesn't want to see Leng Luoli go down that path in the future.
As for Leng Luoli's special feelings for him, to be honest, Gu Yunchen currently feels a little helpless.
Although he knew very well in his heart that he liked women, he was definitely not gay.
But faced with this deep affection from his brother, for a moment, he really didn't know how to deal with it.
If he hadn't heard his mother's voice, he would probably never have noticed Leng Luoli's unique sexual orientation, and naturally he would not have thought about it.
On ordinary days, Leng Luoli concealed his true feelings perfectly, and he didn't notice it at all.
It is also because of this that Leng Luoli did not express his attitude, and he has never been able to find a suitable opportunity to tell Leng Luoli that he only likes women, and thus "politely reject" his love.
Leng Luoli, who was originally feeling a bit depressed, instantly lost the last bit of unhappiness in his heart after hearing Gu Yunchen's words. A hint of lightness that was difficult to conceal flashed between his eyebrows.
Leng Luoli said, "Okay, that's it for now. When I'm ready to start a family and marry a bride, I will tell you the first time and let you know who my sweetheart is."
Gu Yunchen couldn't help but laugh heartily and responded, "Haha, great! When the time comes, I'll definitely give you a few large glasses of wedding wine and celebrate this great event with you!"
After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Leng Luoli's eyes flashed with a hint of anticipation and shyness, and he thought to himself: "But, actually, I hope you can be my groom!"
However, these words only lingered in his heart and he never dared to say them out loud.
So, he cleverly changed the subject and began to talk about his deep impression of the Shen family.
Alas! To be honest, before this, he could never imagine that the person who had always treated him as a brother would actually be the most noble and respected young master of the Marquis's Mansion, and would most likely inherit everything in the Marquis's Mansion in the future!
Leng Luoli frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Faced with such a distinguished background, what are your thoughts? You know, your biological father is a marquis, and your biological mother is so wealthy.
