Little Yunxiao, who had just turned one year old, couldn't understand what the adults were saying, and he didn't know why his parents insisted on taking him away. He would just cry loudly whenever someone tried to take him away.
Bai Chi, who had just turned nine, didn't care about other people's opinions. He was precocious and had no friends of his age. While others were still playing house in kindergarten, he was already watching financial news on TV.
When he was eight years old, he found elementary school students too boring, so he followed his father to the company every day, and even had his own special seat at board meetings.
Although I was just listening in.
Everyone jokingly calls him a little monster who only likes to work, and some people even bet that he might grow up to be a ruthless work machine.
Until that year, Mu Yunxiao, who could barely speak, grabbed this powerful patron and was lifted up by him.
Little Yunxiao, who knew nothing, and Bai Chi, who didn't care about anything, one took the baby home directly, and the other followed.
They don't care at all what other people do.
At the time, Mu's father was just a small supermarket owner. He almost had his son kidnapped, and even calling the police didn't help.
As soon as Xiao Yunxiao was taken away, he started crying. He cried so hard that his whole body convulsed and he almost fainted. No one could comfort him.
Bai Chi disregarded all objections and insisted on bringing Xiao Yunxiao back.
In the end, both sets of parents had no choice but to compromise and bring Mu Yunxiao back to the Bai family to raise him.
Fortunately, Bai Chi calmed down and listened to his parents' words, realizing that Xiao Yunxiao was Mu's child, which prevented the Mu family from completely losing their son.
And so he stayed there for fifteen years.
With Bai Chi's deliberate support, Mu's father became the general manager of the largest chain supermarket in Beijing.
The entire capital city knows that this is because of Young Master Mu, because President Bai likes Young Master Mu, and because President Bai intends to raise Young Master Mu's status.
Even though the two seemed to be forced apart in the past two years, and Mu Shao couldn't even get close to Bai Zong, it was clear to everyone that this did not mean that others could touch the Mu family.
At first, there were indeed some short-sighted people who thought that the Mu family had been disliked by President Bai and even tried to get their hands on Young Master Mu. However, before they could take any action, they only made a few empty promises and then disappeared without a trace from Beijing.
From then on, everyone understood that Young Master Mu's return home was only temporary, and he would eventually have to return to the Bai family.
Two years ago, at the age of 24, Bai Chi faced his family's pressure to get married for the first time. They even showed him a stack of photos to choose from, all of which were beautiful and talented young ladies from wealthy families.
Right in front of sixteen-year-old Mu Yunxiao.
Afterwards, Mu Yunxiao made a huge scene, almost overturning the table, and forbade Bai Chi from getting married. He said that if Bai Chi was to marry, he could only marry him!
Even though the two had lived and eaten together since childhood, and even though Mu Yunxiao only went back to the Mu family for one meal every Saturday noon and spent the rest of the time at Bai Chi's place.
But before this, no one had ever imagined that they would have any other relationship.
Everyone always thought they were brothers who were as close as siblings.
That's all.
After that, there was quite a commotion. Mu's parents almost knelt down and begged him. They felt that it was because the two of them had spent too much time together that Mu Yunxiao thought he liked Bai Chi.
They thought that as long as the two separated temporarily, their feelings would naturally fade, and Mu Yunxiao would naturally understand that there was a difference between brothers and wives/lovers.
Faced with the earnest pleas of both sets of parents, and considering Mu Yunxiao's growing age, Bai Chi agreed.
Two years, two years apart. If they can't change Mu Yunxiao's mind in two years, then no one is allowed to say another word!
There was no discussion; it was his decision.
So Mu Yunxiao was taken back to the Mu family.
In fact, Bai Chi regretted it the next day. He didn't care about brothers or love. Yunxiao was his, and he should be by his side!
But at the moment of stepping out the door, she ultimately held back, perhaps at least to give Yunxiao a chance to choose.
Bai Chi gently patted Mu Yunxiao's back, listening to him recount his own ruthlessness bit by bit.
She goes to school to see him every day, but refuses to get close.
We eat at the same place every week, and I even made a reservation for him, but there are several seats between us.
He attends every business banquet and charity gala, and even has people deliver banquet invitations to him, but insists that bodyguards block him from getting close!
In particular, Mingming sends him photos every day, and every month she has new clothes made to his specifications, seasonal seafood and fruits, etc., as long as they are his favorites, they are always delivered to his home on time.
There was no response to the text messages or phone calls.
The more I talked about it, the more heartbroken I became; it was truly a heartbreaking story.
Bai Chi was initially feeling sorry for him, but as he listened, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, alright, you said it yourself, I'm not really ignoring you, it's just that I promised your aunt and uncle I'd give you two years to think things through."
As she spoke, she lifted Mu Yunxiao's head off her shoulder, rubbed his head, and gently wiped the redness from the corners of his eyes with her fingertips. The wetness proved that he had indeed been secretly crying.
"What's there to think about? I've already told you I like Achi, and all I want to do is be with Achi."
“Ah Chi, you can’t marry someone else. Do you know how afraid I am that you’ll ignore me and then secretly marry someone else?”
For the past ten years or so, he had never considered this possibility.
Two years ago, when he first learned that Achi might marry someone else, he was almost driven mad with anger. Even smashing the gathering of the two families and tearing up all the photos that Madam Bai had brought out did not quell his anger at all.
Spoiled by Achi since childhood, she was so willful that no one but Achi could control her.
