Chapter 11
After being mercilessly ridiculed, Ming Yunle ignored Xia Chen.
I'm really impressed. Was it because of his thoughts that he didn't sleep well? It was because of his lack of experience in pursuing people that he kept thinking about it and couldn't fall asleep.
When he thought about pursuing someone, he looked at the chat page with Xia Chen again.
Do you want to ask?
Ming Yunle reached out, typed "I have a friend" and deleted it, then typed "Have you ever pursued Gu Jing" and deleted it as well.
After deleting a few more messages, Ming Yunle was tired of deleting them. He simply turned off his phone and huddled under the covers.
Forget it, he didn't ask. Everyone's situation was different, and even if he asked, he probably wouldn't get any useful advice.
Ming Yunle got up not long after lying down.
He took out the gift Ruan Yan had given him and stared at it.
After observing the room for a long time, he finally placed the newly received gifts on a shelf.
Well, very good.
Ruan Yan still remembers what he likes.
After looking at it for a while, Ming Yunle thought of how to talk to Ruan Yan, and he picked up the phone.
Did you buy everything? Did you forget to buy anything?
In the rental house, Ruan Yan was still busy.
When he heard his phone ringing, he took a moment to take a look. When he saw that it was Ming Yunle, his expression immediately changed. He threw everything else behind him and focused all his attention on Ming Yunle.
Anyway, I can pack it up tomorrow and the things won’t run away.
The two chatted for a while, and when they were done, Ruan Yan looked at the pile of things he had not packed yet and sighed.
Forget it, let’s continue tomorrow.
*
After that, Ruan Yan and Ming Yunle started to get busy with their own things again.
Occasionally we go out to play together or have dinner together, it’s pretty much the same as before.
After Ming Yunle finished drawing another picture and reading half a book, he continued to send messages to his brother.
[Are you free? Want to have dinner together?]
Ever since Ming Yunyuan came back from his business trip, Ming Yunle had sent this message countless times. He had thought Ming Yunyuan was still busy, but...
Ming Yunyuan: I'm downstairs now. The housekeeper said you haven't eaten yet. Come down.
Ming Yunle sat up from the bed in a flash. Seeing the message, he showed an expression of disbelief and replied, "Really? Are you sure? You are not lying to me."
Ming Yunyuan: ...
After sending a string of question marks, Ming Yunyuan stopped talking.
Knowing that Ming Yunyuan was downstairs, Ming Yunle hurried out of the bedroom.
After Ming Yunle went downstairs, he found Ming Yunyuan sitting on the sofa looking at his phone. This scene almost moved Ming Yunle.
His younger brother was busy some time ago and didn't even attend his birthday party, he just gave him a gift.
When his younger brother was no longer busy, he went on a trip to City M, and the two brothers missed each other again.
When he came back from his trip, his brother had gone on a business trip to another city.
After Ming Yunyuan came back, he had some new things to deal with, so there was no chance for them to meet again.
The two of them always have time that's oddly coincidental.
The two of them had never been separated for such a long time since they were young, so Ming Yunle was particularly uncomfortable with it.
He hadn't held out any hope when he asked just now, but he didn't expect his brother to be at home right now.
His brother usually doesn't live here.
He moved closer to Ming Yunyuan to take a closer look, and after looking around, he was very satisfied.
"I haven't lost weight, I look very healthy, keep it up next time."
Ming Yunyuan: "..."
Ming Yunyuan couldn't help but say, "I still pay attention to my health."
After the two chatted about Ming Yunyuan's recent situation, Ming Yunle heard the sound of someone coming down the stairs.
At first he thought it was the butler, but when he looked up, he saw it was Xia Chen.
Only then did Ming Yunle remember that there was such a person at home.
Xia Chen's arrival was really sudden, and this visit was not originally planned.
Xia Chen came here this time just because he left something here when he watched a movie last time and forgot to pick it up.
This time he happened to pass by here and simply took the things.
Later, Xia Chen looked outside and thought that the sun was about to set, and he was a little hungry, so he might as well stay here.
This kind of situation has happened a lot, not just once or twice, but hundreds of times since he was a child. Xia Chen is very familiar with staying overnight.
Seeing Ming Yunle's eyes, Xia Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "You didn't forget about me, did you? I was only up there for less than an hour."
"How could that be?" Ming Yunle felt a little guilty.
But Xia Chen's attention was no longer on Ming Yunle. Seeing someone he hadn't seen for a long time, Xia Chen was a little surprised: "Ming Yunyuan? You're back?"
Ming Yunyuan nodded.
Xia Chen hadn't seen Ming Yunyuan for a long time. He was a little excited when he saw him suddenly, and asked a lot of questions.
"Is N City fun?"
"I don't know. I only went there for work."
This question was just the beginning, Xia Chen asked many more questions.
"I heard you went to that party." "What did you buy, a watch? Is it nice?" "Me? Indeed, I am in love. Is it obvious?" "You saw me on a date? When was that?"
The two of them talked a lot, one talking less, and they chatted back and forth so much that Ming Yunle almost had no chance to get a word in.
Xia Chen, feeling hungry, only stopped eating when the housekeeper came over to say that the meal was ready.
Maybe there are more people today, so the food is particularly rich.
After dinner, they stayed in the living room for a while, and during this short while, Ming Yunle became troubled again.
He hadn't seen his brother lately and kind of wanted to hang out with him again, but there didn't seem to be anything concrete to do.
Besides, it’s getting late now, and even if we go, it will close soon.
How about... going to the park?
Although Ming Yunle often goes to the park, he never gets tired of it.
Ming Yunle loves going to parks. He likes to walk around and discover beautiful places, then take note of them and go back next time.
The park he often goes to has particularly beautiful scenery. It is his first choice for taking a walk on weekdays. He feels particularly relaxed there.
I don’t know whether Ming Yunyuan likes to go to the park or not. He usually goes there alone.
Or, ask Ming Yunyuan?
Ming Yunle was struggling with his thoughts when Ming Yunyuan suddenly asked, "Want to go to the park?"
Ming Yunle: “!” Did he just say that?
Seeing what Ming Yunle was thinking, Xia Chen said, "Your words are written all over your face."
"What's written on my face?"
"It says you want to go out for a walk." Xia Chen shrugged: "And the place you go for a walk at this time is a park, right?"
Xia Chen even accurately said the name of the park, which was the park he went to almost every day recently.
He also named several places he often went to, exactly.
Ming Yunle: “…”
It's really strange to know him well.
When Xia Chen said his name, Ming Yunyuan had even put on his coat.
Just as he was about to leave, Ming Yunyuan suddenly remembered that Xia Chen was still standing there. Ming Yunyuan looked at Xia Chen and asked, "Together?"
Xia Chen quickly refused. He was so addicted to cooking that he planned to make a midnight snack for them later.
Hearing him say this, Ming Yunyuan showed a somewhat questioning expression.
Xia Chen noticed the change in Ming Yunyuan's expression and said, "I've been learning to cook for a while now, and my skills are much better than before. Besides, aren't your chefs in the kitchen? They're watching over me."
After hearing Xia Chen's words, Ming Yunle thought of the scene in Xia Chen's manor.
It's true that there has been progress, but it's also true that the level is very average. I don't know how it will be this time.
Ming Yunle explained, and Ming Yunyuan nodded and said, "Just do what you are good at."
Looking at Ming Yunyuan's back, Xia Chen made a face. Ming Yunyuan saw it through the reflection and said, "Don't give it to me when you're done."
"Don't do this!" Xia Chen's shouting was blocked out, and Ming Yunyuan and Ming Yunle got into the car.
When they arrived at the park, Ming Yunle found that there were already many people taking a walk after dinner.
He thought for a while and decided to take his brother to a place he liked better.
Ming Yunle and Ming Yunyuan stood silently by the lake.
It wasn't because of anything else, but mainly because both sides didn't think of what to say for the moment. After all, Xia Chen had already asked everything he should have asked.
Are we just going to stand there? The view is nice and I can just enjoy it, but it's too quiet.
Ming Yunle finally thought of something Xia Chen hadn't asked: "What have you been doing recently? Have you changed your leisure activities?"
He remembered that Ming Yunyuan used to like watching concerts to relax, but he didn't know what he had been doing in recent months or whether his hobbies had changed.
"In my free time lately, I like playing billiards and swimming in the pool." Ming Yunyuan thought for a moment and said, "Occasionally, I also go to concerts."
His hobbies have changed a little. Ming Yunyuan’s favorite sport before was golf.
But apart from swimming, it seems that there is no similarity between it and my hobbies.
After the initial silence, the two of them talked a lot.
Ming Yunyuan mostly talked about the banquet and company matters, while Ming Yunle talked about which places had beautiful scenery, which places were interesting, and which places had delicious food.
Although what they said were very different, they were surprisingly harmonious.
The park was incredibly large. They walked slowly for about half an hour, and before they had even reached a third of the park, Ming Yunyuan was surprised. "This park is much bigger than I imagined."
"You haven't been here before." "Yeah."
"Then let's continue playing next time and explore the rest of the place."
Ming Yunyuan agreed.
Ming Yunle thought about Ming Yunyuan's birthday, so he asked, "Isn't your birthday coming up soon? Are you planning a party?"
Ming Yunyuan thought about it and refused: "No, just having a meal at home is fine, no need to make it too much trouble."
After returning home, Ming Yunyuan's first thing was to look for Xia Chen.
Xia Chen saw them coming back and said, "Come on, come on, sit down."
He put a plate on the table and said, "Midnight snack."
They walked around for a long time and had already digested their dinner, so they were both a little hungry.
Ming Yunle looked at the food in front of him. The portion was small, just enough for a few bites, but it looked really appetizing.
