Chapter 38 Carry the person back home Mr. Xu, Xiaoman is not someone he can afford to play with...

Ye Manren was asleep, but his hands were clenched tightly.

Unless he was woken up, Xu Huaiting had no chance of putting him in the car.

He stood by the car and estimated the distance in his mind.

The walk took about thirty minutes, which was not too far. Ye Man was dressed warmly enough to keep Xu Huaiting's back warm. He shouldn't be cold after such a short distance.

Then let him sleep like this.

It was not easy to fall asleep.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xu Huaiting easily decided to just carry the person back.

Ye Man put her face on his shoulder, which was warm and her breathing was shallow but long and regular.

At such a close distance, Xu Huaiting could clearly sense his presence without having to capture him carefully.

Since they both left early, there were few people on the road, and there were not many cars on the seaside at this time. To the right was the sparkling sea at night. Bathed in the quiet moonlight, Xu Huaiting walked steadily on the uphill road. No one talked, and it was quiet all around. Surprisingly, he did not feel bored, and his heart felt strangely at ease.

In a flash, the dim lights of the mansion came into view.

There was a man standing at the door.

Seeing Xu Huaiting carrying Ye Man back, Chi Jue acted very calm. He was not surprised at all that his brother, who was sick and should have stayed in the room and slept, was carried back from outside.

Ye Man didn't want anyone to know that he was sick and wanted to sneak out to watch the fireworks, so Xu Huaiting deliberately kept it quiet when he took him away.

But Chi Jue was not a fool. How could he not know that someone was missing? He found the thief in no time.

I figured out the cause and effect thoroughly with just a rough guess.

Xu Huaiting didn't expect to keep the secret completely. Ye Man believed that he could sneak out and come back without alerting anyone. He was the only one who thought that he was too willful and that it would be bad if others knew about it, so he had to hide it, as if he was doing something extremely bad.

No one except himself would think this was such a big problem.

In fact, it won't be a big deal if you just walk out openly like this.

But he cared about these things in his heart, so Xu Huaiting just went along with him and became a hidden "thief".

Anyway, it's not a big deal to him. It doesn't matter what happens. The most important thing is to make people happy.

"Excuse me, Mr. Xu. Please leave Xiaoman to me." Chi Jue stretched out his hand and tried to take Ye Man from Xu Huaiting's back, but Xu Huaiting dodged and pointed to the bag in his hand: "You have something in your hand, so it's not convenient to hold him. I've already sent him here, so it's not a big deal to take these two steps."

Chi Jue was carrying a bag filled with fairy wands, which he had originally intended to give to Ye Man to play with.

When he was told not to watch the fireworks, Ye Man did not show any obvious unhappiness.

However, relatively speaking, Ye Man was quite relaxed in front of Chi Jue. Unlike with his parents and elder brother, he was obedient and sensible and had no temper.

At home, Ye Man would never say anything to other people that might upset them. His facial expressions would either be a pleasing smile or a pitiful cry, but he would never lose his temper.

It’s just different for Chi Jue.

Sometimes he would express his anger so directly to him that Chi Jue could understand his thoughts more easily than others.

He was so excited to go watch the fireworks, but now he couldn't. He must be very angry.

My health was not good to begin with, and now that I'm angry, it's even harder to get better.

Chi Jue thought of a compromise, first use this small fairy wand to appease him, so that he won't get angry again. When he recovers, he will see what he wants.

He didn't expect that someone had the same idea as him and took action one step ahead of him, and even took the person away like this.

Chi Jue didn't agree with this behavior. Although Xu Huaiting was well prepared, what if he got sicker after this ordeal? What was more important than health that was worth taking the risk?

But since he's gone, he won't say anything more about it.

They have already played, and now the person is probably happy. There is no need for him to scold him again. It would be a complete loss if he ruins the good mood that he has worked so hard to get.

What I am thinking about now is that I need to keep a close eye on it in the next few days so that I can provide timely rescue if the situation becomes serious.

In the end, it was Xu Huaiting who sent the person to the room.

Like he said, this is the only way left.

After entering the room, Chi Jue stood there and watched for a while. He had to go forward with a hint of embarrassment and try to wake up Ye Man: "Xiao Man, wake up. We are in the room. Let go of Mr. Xu."

Xu Huaiting almost couldn't leave.

Ye Man was called twice and woke up for a moment, finally allowing Xu Huaiting to rescue him from his arms.

He was so sleepy that he didn't realize what he had done.

Chi Jue helped him take off his coat and shoes, tucked him into the quilt, and gave him some water. After settling him down, he was sweating.

He turned to look at Xu Huaiting and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu."

Xu Huaiting: "It's okay."

Both of them lowered their voices, two grown men, trying to hold their throats while speaking.

Chi Jue closed the door quietly and personally escorted Xu Huaiting out.

Knowing that he had something to say, Xu Huaiting did not leave but stood at the door. He subconsciously wanted to touch the cigarette, but then remembered something and gave up.

"Mr. Xu, Xiaoman didn't have a good life before. You saw it. His eyes..." Chi Jue said carefully, "Although he seemed to accept it easily and never complained to his family, it is impossible for a person who has always been able to see to accept it so calmly when he suddenly becomes blind one day. It's just that he doesn't like to tell us these things. He keeps everything in his heart. He is sensitive, in poor health, and easily injured..."

"He can't stand the slightest bit of hardship, can you understand that?"

At this point, Chi Jue smiled and said, "Xiao Man is a simple person. If you are nice to him, he will take you to heart. He takes these things seriously and is not likely to play along."

If Ye Man knew that Chi Jue actually said that he would not play around just for the sake of circumstance, he would definitely argue with him.

Unfortunately, what he said was fundamentally different from what Chi Jue said.

Chi Jue didn't say it too clearly, but even a blind man could see that Xu Huaiting had something in common with Ye Man, otherwise why would he come to watch fireworks in the middle of the night? The tubes of fireworks he bought were still outside Ye Man's window.

But Chi Jue didn't want to point it out directly, leaving no room for maneuver.

"We know that Xiaoman is pretty." That's all I can say.

Anyone with eyes knows this.

Even when that bastard Chu Rong came to cause trouble, he had to stare at him a few more times, which shows how strong he was.

Chi Jue was worried that Xu Huaiting just thought Ye Man was pretty and deceptive, so he just wanted to play around with her and treat her nicely, and then dump her when he got tired of her.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the circle. They chase after someone fiercely for a while, then get tired of him/her after a while, give him/her some money, a house, a car, a shop, jewelry, funds, and stocks, and then they part ways, and no one loses out.

But Ye Man is different.

He can't afford this.

Chi Jue was very worried about Ye Man's performance today.

I told my eldest brother about this, and he probably thought the same thing. This situation is really worrying.

He let out a long breath.

How to deal with this matter so as not to hurt his brother and offend Xu Huaiting is a science.

It would be better for Xu Huaiting to keep his distance actively.

Chi Jue said jokingly: "Mr. Xu doesn't have anyone he wants. Xiaoman... is still young and doesn't know anything."

Xu Huaiting listened to him for a long time before he said, "I remember you two were the same age. At your age, you were already engaged to Meng Yao."

Chi Jue was suddenly blocked.

Taking a deep breath, "If you approached Xiaoman because of what happened between me and Meng Yao, I no longer have any contact with Meng Yao..."

Xu Huaiting: "Whether you contact Meng Yaolian or not is your business. My last name is not Meng, and I am not his biological father or mother. I can't be so strict."

Xu Huaiting felt that he had done his best by helping his parents beat up their kids when he had nothing to do.

He reflected seriously for a moment, "My reputation is not bad enough for you to worry about me bullying such a poor little person. I don't know how others mess around, but I have always been clean and chaste, and I have never messed around with anyone. Mr. Chi, I hope you won't spread rumors and ruin my reputation."

"You may not know this, but in our family, not having a partner is a very serious matter," Xu Huaiting put his hands in his pockets and smiled calmly, "If this causes me to be alone for the rest of my life, I will settle the score with you."

Chi Jue opened his mouth.

"Also, it turns out that Xiaoman never complains to you guys."

"He just told me a lot, saying that his greatest wish in life is to watch fireworks hand in hand with his lover..." Xu Huaiting smiled, "It seems that he hasn't told you this either."

Chi Jue looked at him in amazement.

Xu Huaiting sighed, walked over and patted Chi Jue on the shoulder in a tactful manner: "You guys...ah...come on."

"I won't say more."

"As for what I think of him, I would rather talk to him personally. It's not a big deal and it's more suitable for his family to solve it on his behalf."

Chi Jue didn't say anything.

Xu Huaiting changed the subject casually: "By the way, I have an appointment with an ophthalmologist here. He should stay here for the next two days to recuperate. When he recovers a little, I will bring him over for a checkup."

The Chi family has also communicated with the doctor, but it never hurts to see more doctors. Doctors are different, and you never know what might work for one doctor but not the other.

Xu Huaiting left.

Chi Jue stood at the door for a long time in the cold night wind, then turned around and kicked the wall hard.

"Damn it, did Xiaoman really tell him that?"
