Meng Xunqian's face still held a gentle, warm smile: "Remember to come back and visit often when you have time."
Mu Xiaocheng nodded; she would come back often.
After all, this is her home too.
Yes, it will.
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Xiaocheng suddenly hugged Meng Xunqian.
Although she knows today that they are not related by blood.
But now our feelings for each other are deeper than any blood relation.
Her brother will always be here.
She was truly lucky to have met an older brother like Meng Xunqian.
Meng Xunqian didn't expect her to hug him suddenly.
At that moment, my body stiffened, and I didn't know what to do.
He was always calm, composed, intelligent, and wise, but at this moment, his mind went completely blank.
Fine, I'll take him as my brother.
At worst, he can try harder in the next life to become the person she loves.
When Chi Yan saw Mu Xiaocheng hugging Meng Xunqian, his eyes widened in surprise.
Although Meng Xunqian is his sister-in-law's brother, Shen Ge would definitely be angry if he found out.
If his brother gets angry, he definitely won't take it out on his sister-in-law; the most likely target will be him.
Considering the possible consequences, Chi Yan quickly cleared his throat and said, "Sister-in-law, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, let's go back."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaocheng released Meng Xunqian.
Then he left with Chi Yan.
Meng Xunqian watched the direction they left in, raindrops hitting the large black umbrella, making a hollow sound.
Just like his heart.
From then on, he no longer longed for love; he was content to stay by his sister's side.
I only hope for peaceful times.

On the bus.
While driving, Chi Yan said to Mu Xiaocheng in the back seat, "Sister-in-law, if you're feeling down, you can talk to my brother. Although he's investigating something, he should still have some free time."
The implication is: you two can still communicate and deepen your relationship.
"What exactly is he investigating?"
Mu Xiaocheng took out her phone and asked suspiciously.
Chi Yan acted as if she hadn't heard anything, honked her car horn, and complained, "What's wrong with these drivers? They just run red lights on rainy days."
Changing the subject by complaining—perfect.
Mu Xiaocheng pouted. Fine, she wouldn't say it then.
Chi Yan seems to have improved her IQ now.
She opened her phone and tapped WeChat.
After thinking for a while, he sent a message to Ji Huaishen.
"You knew about my aunt's affair a long time ago, didn't you?"
This statement sounds like it's an accusation.
Not very gentle or friendly.
Mu Xiaocheng thought about it and felt it was inappropriate, so she sent another message.
"It's raining today, and I miss you a little, Mr. Ji."
A long while passed, and even after getting off the bus and going home, Mu Xiaocheng still hadn't received a reply from Ji Huaishen.
She was feeling a bit down and was about to take a hot shower and go to sleep when her phone rang.
It was Ji Huaishen's call.
Her eyes lit up, and she quickly answered the call.
"I was busy just now." A deep, pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone, very magnetic.
Mu Xiaocheng plopped down on the small sofa in the room, and at that moment, she suddenly felt very relaxed.
It was as if just hearing his voice gave her courage and a sense of security.
"My aunt said she would turn herself in."
She said it calmly.
"Is this the result you wanted?" Ji Huaishen asked gently.
Mu Xiaocheng remained silent.
Ji Huaishen understands her very well and knows what she's thinking.
After a moment, he spoke again: "Silly girl, I know you're not that heartless."
