An unfamiliar voice came from the living room.
Shen Linyue's gaze swept past He Liyu and then fell on the boy two meters away. The boy had a particularly exquisite appearance, with fair skin and deep, three-dimensional features. In particular, he had a pair of bright blue eyes that made people's eyes light up and want to stare into them.
"You look so much like my aunt, you're practically identical!" Pei Wenqing exclaimed in shock as he stepped forward.
Completely oblivious to the deep displeasure in her uncle's eyes.
Shen Linyue was stunned by the handsome mixed-race boy's looks. When she looked up at He Liyu, her eyes were full of confusion.
Where did this handsome guy come from?
He Liyu calmly withdrew his gaze, met the girl's inquisitive eyes, and his mood inexplicably sank a little. He slowly explained, "My cousin's son returned to the country yesterday and just came with me from Nanshi. He plans to stay here for a few days."
Well, I originally planned to let him stay here for ten days or half a month, but now I think I'll pass.
Shen Linyue was less surprised when she learned that He Liyu had relatives abroad, and nodded knowingly.
"Hello, let me introduce myself. My Chinese name is Pei Wenqing. What's your name?" The young man stepped forward enthusiastically, squeezed in front of He Liyu, gave her a gentlemanly bow, took her right hand, and even tried to kiss it.
The next moment, He Liyu coughed lightly and reminded her, "Don't use those foreign customs in China, it's impolite. From now on, just call her 'Auntie' like A-Xiao does."
After speaking, he looked at the girl's face and saw that she looked normal. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and the corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile.
But when the girl looked at him, he immediately disappeared, his eyes and brows becoming deep and thoughtful.
Pei Wenqing looked bewildered. Hearing her uncle's explanation, she said with regret and apology, "I'm sorry, beautiful lady, I'm sorry to have startled you."
Shen Linyue: "..."
She couldn't help but laugh, and the gloom in her eyes vanished instantly.
“It’s okay, it’s not that serious, I don’t mind,” Shen Linyue smiled and said, “My name is Lin Yue, and I’m also very happy to meet you.”
He Li regained his composure upon meeting Shen Linyue, and the slight dissatisfaction he had felt towards his cousin dissipated.
A bittersweet feeling welled up inside him, inevitably reminding him of an old story.
Ah Yue once said that if she was very sad, she should find more handsome men so she wouldn't have the energy to be sad.
These words weren't spoken to him, but he had kept them in his heart for many years.
Later, when they got together, he often used this incident to make sarcastic remarks about her...
He Liyu took a deep breath before saying to Pei Wenqing, "Ayue and I still have some things to take care of. You can play by yourself for a while."
Pei Wenqing had no objections. He was young but not naive. He winked playfully at Shen Linyue.
"Auntie, I'll be waiting for you downstairs." The boy's voice was clear and pleasant to hear, even more so than when He Xiao called her.
Looking at his thick, curly eyes, Shen Linyue's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but sigh, "He's so handsome, even his eyelashes are curlier than others'."
"Okay." She nodded, then turned to look at He Liyu and saw his slightly furrowed brows.
Before he could examine it closely, He Liyu's expression returned to normal, and his voice was gentle and magnetic: "Let's talk in the study."
...
He Xiao treated the guys in the studio to crayfish for lunch.
The overpowering aroma filled the entire studio, but he had no appetite as he watched his friends eat with their mouths full of oil.
After finishing the game, I felt extremely empty.
When he had nothing to do, he couldn't help but think of Lin Yue and their first meeting.
He was carrying a cheap, tattered bag, but inside he had only 500 yuan, which he claimed was a huge sum of money… He thought about that tattered bag again; he couldn't tell what brand it was. He had asked netizens for help online, but hadn't received a reply yet.
Then she remembered that she said she came from another time, which was even more outrageous. He was completely fooling her like a three-year-old!
As He Xiao thought about it, his eyes reddened again, and when he looked up, he met Qi Yu's scrutinizing gaze.
He Xiao pursed his lips, glaring back defiantly, "What?"
"How about I introduce you to a few girls? I have all kinds of voices you like, and I guarantee you won't think about your ex-girlfriend after you've chatted with them," Qi Yu kindly suggested.
He Xiao: "..." His eye twitched violently, he really couldn't understand Qi Yu's love-struck thought process.
"Who the hell told you I broke up with someone?" I've never been in a relationship, okay?
Wait, what does this have to do with romance?!
He just couldn't understand his mother's purpose in deliberately getting close to him!
"Tsk, if you're not heartbroken, what are you doing with that beer? By the way, where's your sister? Did she go back?" Qi Yu glanced at his hand, his eyes seeming to know everything about him.
He Xiao was taken aback, subconsciously looking at the beer in his hand, and then heard Qi Yu bringing up the very thing he shouldn't have, so he pursed his lips.
"Who does she count as my sister?" His voice wasn't loud, and Qi Yu didn't hear him clearly.
"Want a drink? I'll get you drunk, and once we're done, we won't want to think about it anymore. A true man's ambition lies in all corners of the world!" Qi Yu deftly opened the beer tab.
He Xiao disagreed with his words. He couldn't even figure out his own problems, so why was he trying to help him?
As I eagerly reached for the beer tab, a crisp sound suddenly echoed in my mind.
"No drinking!"
He Xiao paused, suddenly realizing that Shen Linyue was intruding on his life far too much! What right did she have to control him?
The two good buddies drank stacks of liquor all afternoon.
By the time the floor was covered with aluminum cans, Qi Yu was already swaying and staggering. He Xiao showed no reaction, sitting blankly in his seat with his head down.
If you look closely, you'll see that the boy's eyes, which should be as black as ink, are now covered with a layer of mist, and his eyes look blank.
The phone on the table vibrated more than once. It wasn't until the last time that He Xiao belatedly realized what was happening that he picked it up.
The phone screen, which should have been clear, was now just a series of double images in his eyes.
He frowned, angrily tapped a few buttons randomly, and then inexplicably got connected.
"Ah Xiao, where are you?" The man's voice was mature and steady, yet his emotions were unreadable.
He Xiao: "..."
Having received no reply for a long time, He Liyu patiently explained in a gentle voice, "Ah Xiao, some things are more complicated than you think. We can sit down and talk about it slowly, what do you think?"
However, he was met with silence again. Suddenly, a very faint hiccup came from the other end.
Congratulatory gifts: ?
Another rustling sound came from behind, as if someone had discovered the phone that was on a call and quickly picked it up.
"Ah, Dad? You're Brother Xiao's father?"
"Oh, oh, oh! Brother Xiao is on Huannan Road... You can come and pick him up here."
"Okay, okay, he's drunk. I'll definitely take good care of him for you."
The call ended quickly, and the henchman holding He Xiao's phone stared at the contact name on the phone, lost in thought.
Dad... What a unique nickname.
After He Liyu ended the call, his expression was extremely gloomy.
Shen Linyue was very nervous and asked anxiously, "Where is A-Xiao?"
