The private room suddenly fell into silence, and Rong Zhan's cold gaze swept across him like a flying knife.

Xi Youlin grinned and spread his hands in a sly manner: "How about...I wish you and sister-in-law to marry late and have children early? You are 28 years old, so you can't really be considered to be marrying early."

At this moment, the waiter came up with the dishes. Rong Zhan picked up the chopsticks and casually put a salt-baked lobster on his plate.

"Eat your food, shut your mouth, and talk less. No one thinks you are dumb."

"You know what, this salt-baked lobster is one of the signature dishes of this restaurant. It tastes quite good. Sang Wan, you should try it too. There are only two. Don't leave any for Brother Zhan." Xi Youlin raised his eyebrows happily and winked and smiled at Ni Sang Wan opposite him.

Ni Sangwan covered her lips and laughed, and took the remaining lobster: "Okay, no problem."

"What's the bad news?" Rong Zhan ignored his childish behavior, ate a mouthful of pasta, and then asked.

"The bad news is..." Xi Youlin sighed heavily, and found the lobster on the plate tasteless. He curled his lips and said, "I don't have many good days left. From now on, I will have a family. I can't be as carefree as before. I may need your help in the future. I hope you will help me with all your heart!"

"Does Miss Tao know about your thoughts? Won't she beat you up?" Ni Sangwan chuckled and gave her a teasing look: "It's good that you have someone who can hold your heart now. Otherwise, I'm afraid that you will forget how to get ashore after swimming in the sea of ​​flowers for too long."

"Don't tell her this. With her violent temper, it would be strange if she didn't beat me up!" Xi Youlin spread his hands and shrugged. After a pause, he asked with a smile, "By the way, Sang Wan, when are you going to get married?"

"I?"

Ni Sangwan was obviously flattered by his question. She glanced at Rong Zhan subconsciously. When she saw Rong Zhan's eyes, a faint smile unconsciously appeared in her eyes.

"I'm not in a hurry now. My career is at its peak now. I don't want to be confined by marriage so soon. Besides...it's not easy to find the right person now. No matter what, that person can't be worse than you."

"If you follow this standard, it will be difficult. After all, there are very few people in this world who are as good as me and Brother Zhan! Sang Wan, this won't work. Change the standard."

Ni Sangwan rolled her eyes while trying not to laugh: "Stop it, can you please have some shame? The standard is to change the impossible. I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait slowly and I'll eventually get the right person."

As the words fell, the corner of his eye could not help but glance at Rong Zhan again: "Besides, Qing Xun is two years older than me, and he hasn't even gotten married yet, so I'm not in a hurry anyway."

"You're waiting for him? Then you've got something to wait for." Xi Youlin sneered and bumped into Rong Zhan's arm beside him: "Do you know about Xixi drinking with Qingxun?"

Rong Zhan glanced at him sideways, and said two tepid words from his cold lips: "I know."

"I know why you are still so calm. You are not qualified as a brother!" Xi Youlin patted his shoulder unhappily and complained.

"This little girl has been thinking about this for a long time. I don't get involved because Qing Xun knows his limits. It's useless to persuade her about emotional matters. I have to let the girl think it over and see it through."

Rong Zhan's voice was faint and his expression was indifferent, as if he was talking about an ordinary matter like washing up.

As for when he discovered the little girl Rong Xi's thoughts, he didn't quite remember. Anyway, he remembered that when he was about to graduate from university, he, Xi Youlin and Shi Qingxun were having dinner together, and he brought her along.

He discovered that Rong Xi treated Shi Qingxun differently from how he treated him and Xi Youlin.

But he later tested Shi Qingxun and found out that this little girl had always been in unrequited love.

It's not a good idea to get involved. What's more, this girl is secretly in love with him, and it doesn't seem right for him to expose her.

As for what happened some time ago, Rong Xi had drunk some wine and suddenly confessed to Shi Qingxun, and Shi Qingxun also confessed to him afterwards.

He was silent for a long time, and only said to Shi Qingxun: "Xixi is my sister. We grew up together. No matter what, don't hurt her or make her sad. As a brother, I can only say that you should think it through."

After that, Qingxun was silent for a long time, then said, "I know, I have always treated Xixi as my sister," and then hung up the phone.

Later, from Rong Xi's distraught look, he realized that Shi Qingxun had rejected the little girl, citing the seven-year age difference as an excuse.

It would still hurt the little girl's heart to a certain extent, but Shi Qingxun couldn't think of a better way to reject her without hurting her. After thinking about it, this was the only reason.

Rong Zhan then touched Rong Xi's head and said in a low voice: "It's okay, I'm here. Even if Shi Qingxun can't see the good in my Xixi, there will always be someone who can see it."

Rong Xi had been holding back his tears for several days. When he heard Rong Zhan's words, he finally couldn't help but burst into tears in his arms.

In just a few minutes, a large area of ​​his blue shirt was wet.

"Xi Xi... like Qing Xun?" Ni Sangwan was surprised again. She grew up with them and was indeed the last person to know about this.

Xi Youlin shook his head: "I only found out about it a while ago when Qingxun suddenly asked me out for a drink. I was wondering why Qingxun, who doesn't drink at all, suddenly wanted to drink with me, but... Hey, this little girl Xixi hid it well enough. Seven years is not a short time!"

Before, Ni Sangwan only thought that Rong Xi was more dependent on Shi Qingxun. It might be because Qingxun was the most gentle and caring one among their three brothers. She never expected that there was something else hidden in her girlish feelings.

She thought she had a good relationship with Rong Xi, but Rong Xi had never told her about this.

It is indeed hidden quite deeply.

"By the way, Qing Xun is going to Germany to study for a month in a few days. The hospital has registered him."

"He sounds like a deserter." Rong Zhan snorted coldly and ate his food as if nothing had happened: "Tell him that we will meet in the future. Can he escape forever?"

"Why don't you tell him directly?" Xi Youlin asked back.

"I can't tell you." Rong Zhan collected his thoughts and said in a rather casual tone, "I temporarily blocked him a few days ago. I'll block him when I feel more relaxed."

Especially when he saw Rong Xi crying so sadly, it was hard for him to hold back.

Blocking someone is the most that can be done.

Upon hearing this, Xi Youlin couldn't help laughing out loud and gave him a thumbs up.
