My people
The next day, Ye Jing'an woke up early in the morning. Seeing Liu Muzhe still sleeping soundly in his arms, he didn't want to wake him up. He was thinking about where to take him to eat delicious food today. After all, he had been hungry for two weeks and needed a good meal.
He hadn't checked his phone last night, but today he discovered Ye Jingning had sent him over ten messages. It was his father who told Ye Jingning that Brother Liu had been home yesterday. After she found out, she asked Ye Jingan to bring Brother Liu to her company for dinner today.
"Brother Liu, are you awake?" Ye Jing'an called softly, "Let's go have breakfast."
"No." Liu Muzhe turned over and continued to sleep.
"No, I found a breakfast shop that looks delicious. Let's go try it." Ye Jingan patted the quilt lightly. "Let's go back and sleep early tonight, okay?"
Liu Muzhe breathed a sigh of relief and got up to pack.
On the way, Ye Jing'an told Liu Muzhe that his sister wanted to treat them to lunch at noon and asked for his opinion.
"Do I really want to meet your entire family?" Liu Muzhe said.
"Go ahead. When you disappeared, my sister helped look for you for a long time and was very anxious." Ye Jing'an added, "You don't know my sister, but she's much easier to deal with than my dad and grandpa."
Liu Muze nodded in agreement. They would meet sooner or later, so it didn't matter when. He was about the same age as Ye Jingning when he ascended to the Immortal Realm. Now that he was hiding his identity, it was relatively easy for him to get along with Ye Jingning. He didn't have to call him "you" all the time like he did with Ye Zhuoran and Ye Yu.
After breakfast, Ye Jingan drove Liu Muzhe slowly to his sister's company. He chose a route with better scenery so that they could have fun while driving.
"Brother Liu, doesn't the lake look beautiful? Let's take a photo together. I'll use it as wallpaper." Ye Jing'an flipped through the photo album. "I don't even have a photo with you yet."
"I don't like taking pictures." Liu Muzhe said.
"I don't like it either, just take a picture." Ye Jing'an said with a smile.
Ye Jingan hugged Liu Muze: "Brother Liu, don't be so serious, smile."
Liu Muzhe leaned his head a little towards Ye Jingan and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
After the shutter sounded, Ye Jingan immediately changed his screen saver and desktop wallpaper to this photo. On the way back to the car, he kept his eyes fixed on the photo and almost tripped over a rock.
Liu Muze smiled helplessly: "Have you never seen me, or have you never seen yourself? What's so good about it? Just look at the road."
"You don't understand. Scenes like this only appeared in my dreams before." Ye Jing'an said, "Or I fantasize about it for countless days before it happens just once!"
Liu Muze suddenly felt sad and said softly, "If you like, we can take a few more pictures."
"Just one will do. This way it will be truly precious." Ye Jing'an said.
"Okay, send it to me." Liu Muzhe said.
"Okay." Ye Jing'an smiled and hugged the person in his arms and kissed him.
"Don't touch me outside, and don't kiss me!" Liu Muzhe pushed him away.
"Oh, we can kiss at home, right?" Ye Jing'an said with a smile.
"You didn't even ask me if I agreed when you kissed me!" Liu Muzhe was speechless for a while.
"Next time I'll ask in advance." Ye Jing'an took Liu Muze's arm, "Let's go. It'll take more than an hour to drive there. My sister will rush me soon."
When they arrived at Ye Jingning's company, she was in a meeting. Ye Jing'an took Liu Muzhe to a nearby shopping mall and bought some snacks that Liu Muzhe liked.
At lunch time, the two came to the hotel box booked by Ye Jingning.
"You're here, but the dishes haven't been served yet. Please wait a little longer." Seeing that the two of them were getting along quite well, Ye Jingning felt a little relieved and poured a full glass of white wine to toast Liu Muze, "Brother Liu, thank you for saving my brother's life! I'll drink this glass!"
"Take out the word 'dog'!" Ye Jing'an said.
"Don't give me that little dog face of yours. Go away and cool off. You have no right to speak!" Ye Jingning said.
Ye Jing'an was about to say something more when the waiter brought over a plate of hot lobster. Ye Jing'an knew Liu Muze loved it, but he was too lazy to peel it and didn't like getting his hands greasy. So he didn't argue with Ye Jingning anymore and just focused on peeling the lobster for Liu Muze.
"My brother is ignorant and stubborn. If he does anything wrong, Brother Liu can just beat him up. No need to be polite to him!" Ye Jingning poured him another glass of wine. "You can also tell me and I'll beat him up! Don't get upset by yourself. It's not worth it if you get hurt."
Liu Muze smiled and said, "Okay."
"Brother Liu forgave him?" Ye Jingning asked in disbelief.
"What?" Liu Muzhe asked back.
"It's Ye Jingan..." Ye Jingning couldn't say the word "forced kiss" no matter how hard he tried. After hesitating for a long time, he changed his words, "Didn't Ye Jingan make you angry? Why did you forgive him?"
"Well, he apologized." Liu Muzhe said.
Ye Jingning was obviously stunned for a few seconds, thinking that Brother Liu didn't seem like the kind of person who would swallow his anger and choose to forgive after being kissed forcibly, so he asked again: "Brother Liu, has anyone in the Ye family saved your life?"
Liu Muzhe looked at her in confusion and nodded.
"Ah, no wonder." Ye Jingning nodded, "Brother Liu, there's no need to put yourself in a difficult position. You don't have to be too tolerant of Ye Jingan."
"Okay." Liu Muzhe leisurely picked up the lobster peeled by Ye Jing'an and ate it with wine, and responded casually.
Ye Jingning drank and squinted at the two of them. She always felt that the atmosphere today was a little weird, but she couldn't tell what was weird.
At this time, all the dishes were served. Ye Jingan and Liu Muzhe had similar tastes, and the dishes were all their favorites. Ye Jingan didn't move his chopsticks at all, concentrating on peeling the lobster.
She ordered a large plate of crayfish, a plate that looked full, but in reality, there were only about twenty of them. Ye Jing'an brought the plate to him, peeled them, and placed them neatly on the plate for Liu Muze to eat. He didn't leave any for her sister, let alone peel them for her.
Seeing his brother acting like a worthless licker, Ye Jingning was speechless for a while. Wanting to deliberately annoy him, he asked Liu Muze: "Brother Liu, do you like men or women?"
Ye Jingan was touched, thinking that his sister was still very kind to him and even helped him test Brother Liu. However, he had already pursued Brother Liu, so her kindness was wasted.
Liu Muze glanced at Ye Jingan: "Male."
Ye Jingning raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What type do you like, Brother Liu?"
Liu Muze glanced at Ye Jingan again, thought for a moment and said, "He's a little taller than me, has a good personality, and is caring."
Ye Jingan smiled knowingly and fed the freshly peeled lobster meat to his mouth.
"Oh, I know a handsome guy in my company. He's gentle, considerate, and has a good temper. I'd like to recommend him to you." Ye Jingning showed him a photo. "What do you think, Brother Liu?"
Ye Jingan glanced at it and found that the person in the photo was not him. He slapped the table and shouted, "Ye Jingning, what do you mean!?"
"What do you mean? Brother Liu saved you, so what's wrong with me introducing him to a girl?" Ye Jingning said.
"Don't play tricks on me, Brother Liu is mine!" Ye Jing'an shouted.
Liu Muzhe was drinking and started coughing.
Ye Jingning was stunned. He didn't expect Ye Jingan to dare to shout in front of Brother Liu, not afraid of making him angry and running away. So he reminded him, "Ye Jingan, be careful with your words. It's easy to cause misunderstandings."
"What's the misunderstanding? Ye Jingning, stop looking down on me! Brother Liu likes me, let's be together!" Ye Jingan said.
Liu Muzhe coughed a little more violently.
"What?" Ye Jingning was confused and pointed at Liu Muze and asked, "Are you talking about him?"
"Yes." Ye Jing'an put his arm around Liu Muzhe's shoulders.
Liu Muze glared at Ye Jingan and took his hand away. Liu Muze didn't expect Ye Jingan to tell Ye Jingning about their relationship. He didn't know what to say for a while, so he just lowered his head and sipped his wine.
Seeing that Liu Muze had no reaction and no explanation, Ye Jingning asked incredulously: "Brother Liu, did you really agree to him?"
Liu Muzhe blinked and nodded softly.
"What? You...were you forced by him? You don't have to be afraid of him threatening you. Tell me if there is anything!" Ye Jingning said.
"Ye Jingning, what do you mean? You can't stand seeing me doing well, right?" Ye Jing'an said.
"No." Liu Muzhe said.
"Do you really like him?" Ye Jingning asked with wide eyes.
Liu Muzhe nodded.
"No, are you blind?" Ye Jingning glared at Ye Jingan, "What's so good about him that you like him?"
Liu Muzhe lowered his eyes and smiled.
Ye Jingan slammed the table and cursed, "Ye Jingning, stop being so envious and jealous! In all these years, no man has liked you, and you still have the nerve to talk about me here! Aren't you ashamed?"
Ye Jingning felt hopeless, sitting back in a chair, drinking from a bottle of baijiu, her face filled with despair. Her brother, eight years her junior, had actually found a man before her, and a very good one at that. Why?!
The news that Brother Liu liked Ye Jingan was more shocking to Ye Jingning than the existence of ghosts in the world. She didn't understand and asked again: "Brother Liu, what do you like about him?"
Liu Muzhe was stunned. He couldn't say what exactly he liked about Ye Jing'an. It seemed that there were many reasons, but he couldn't single them out. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't find a good reason, so he patted Ye Jing'an gently.
"They like me because I'm handsome and kind-hearted! What do you have to ask? I have a lot of admirers, unlike some people!" Ye Jing'an said.
"I have plenty too, they just know their own limitations and don't dare to come!" Ye Jingning threw them three movie tickets, "They said we should go together, so go ahead, both of you."
"Keep it for yourself. Brother Liu doesn't like watching movies, so I'll take him out to buy some food." Ye Jing'an said to Liu Muzhe, "After you finish eating the lobster I peeled, I'll take you out to buy some delicious food and not eat her food."
"Okay." Liu Muzhe said.
"How is it? My technique of peeling lobsters is good. I will peel lobsters for you to eat in the future." Ye Jingan supported his face with his hands and looked at him.
Liu Muzhe smiled and fed two shrimps to Ye Jingan.
Ye Jingan complained that Ye Jingning was stingy. He only served these lobsters when he invited them to dinner. He hadn't even finished peeling them. This little bit of meat wasn't enough to fill Brother Liu's teeth. Ye Jingan put down Liu Muze's chopsticks and dragged him out to buy some delicious food.
Ye Jingning frowned as he looked at the two of them being so affectionate, then ordered three more bottles of white wine and sat alone in the box, drinking and questioning his life.
