Chapter 237 Don't cry, baby, brother agrees.
These past few days, Mo Ziyuan has been busy again. Shi Jingsheng understands that this is because Yi An has found out, so now that he has nothing to do, he starts working.
At this point, Jing Sheng felt resentful about what happened a few days ago. Zi Yuan went out on a date with Yi Luo without telling him. If Yi An hadn't been angry and told him, he wouldn't have known until now.
He went to find Mo Ziyuan, but the man had disappeared again.
Shi Jingsheng was angry. He called Yi'an, ignoring Mo Ziyuan. To find out Mo Ziyuan's whereabouts, he needed to know where Lin Yi'an was.
"Hello?"
"Yi'an, where are you?"
Lin Yi'an, who was sitting in the office, raised an eyebrow in suspicion.
"You're asking me where I am and what I'm doing? What's the matter?"
Shi Jingsheng immediately changed his tone.
"Let's go out and have some fun. It's been so long since we've hung out together."
He was relieved when he heard that the person wanted to hang out with him.
"We can play, but it can only be the two of us, and we have to come to my house to play."
"It's fine for the two of us to hang out, but what would we do at your house? What's there to do at your house?"
"Then we won't play. You have to come to my house to play anyway, because I have to stay home with my sister after get off work."
I see.
"Okay, okay, I'll come find you tonight."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Jingsheng was certain that Lin Yi'an was at the company. There was a water drain on Lin Yi'an's desk, and he could hear the sound of water dripping through the phone, the "drip-drip-drip" sound was very clear.
Since he's at home, it's hard to say what Mo Ziyuan is up to.
…………………
That evening, Shi Jingsheng returned to Tao Sheng Ju with Lin Yi'an.
The little girl was sitting on the sofa watching TV when Lin Yi'an saw her and asked her a question.
"Did you go out today?"
Lin Yilu blinked her round eyes at him, looking completely bewildered.
"The pajamas you usually wear at home."
The little girl instantly realized what was happening, lowered her head to stroke her skirt, picked up a water glass from the side, took a sip, and mumbled something incoherently.
"This dress is pretty, I want to try it on." She thought to herself, not giving a direct answer meant she wasn't lying.
Lin Yi'an continued taking off his coat without pressing the matter. Shi Jingsheng, however, smiled at the girl drinking water. After Lin Yi'an went upstairs, he immediately sat down next to Lin Yiluo, startling her so much that her water glass clattered.
"Brother Jingsheng, what are you doing?" she said reproachfully.
Shi Jingsheng, a medical student, possessed an extraordinary sense of smell. Upon getting close, he noticed a familiar, cool fragrance mixed with her natural scent—it was Mo Ziyuan! In an instant, he understood, his gaze towards Lin Yiluo carrying a hint of mockery. Tsk tsk tsk, this adorable little girl has actually learned to lie to people.
"Baby, hide your shoes by the door. Your brother hasn't changed his shoes yet."
Upon his reminder, Lin Yiluo's pupils constricted, and she hurriedly got up and ran towards the door. She had actually forgotten to hide her shoes! But it was too late. Just as she grabbed the shoes, she heard Lin Yi'an's deep roar coming from the stairs.
"Lin Yiluo!!!"
Lin Yi'an had long lost his former gentleness; these past few days, because of Mo Ziyuan's matter, his temper had been almost completely worn away. The little girl stood frozen in place, her back ramrod straight, not daring to even breathe loudly.
The sandalwood stairs creaked underfoot as Lin Yi'an walked up to her step by step, a sliver of hope still lingering in his eyes.
"You didn't go to see Ziyuan, did you?"
Just then, Shi Jingsheng's phone rang. When he opened it, he saw a message from Mo Ziyuan.
Are you at Yi'an's house? I took Yi Luo out today. She's a bit slow. If you're at his house, be careful not to let Yi'an find out that I took her out.
Shi Jingsheng looked at the message and his lips twitched. The news came way too late; it was clear that the truth had already been revealed.
Actually, Mo Ziyuan hadn't planned to take her out, but the girl kept sending him messages, acting all cute and affectionate. She said she was so bored at home, that she missed him, and that she was going to spin around in bed out of boredom.
Lin Yiluo wouldn't lie, nor would she dare to lie. Lin Yi'an only now realized the ambiguity in her words; so that's how it was.
“Look up at me and answer.”
Waaah... It's a little scary.
Her brother is so fierce.
The little girl looked up at Lin Yi'an, her eyes filled with grievance. Lin Yi'an, standing in front of her, was momentarily speechless.
He rubbed his temples, softening his tone.
"Didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to see him anymore? Why won't you listen, baby?"
The usually gentle younger sister finally spoke up boldly at this moment.
"I want to see him. Why can't I see Brother Ziyuan? I like him."
As soon as she finished speaking, glistening tears rolled down the little girl's cheeks, splashing onto her clothes and leaving small wet marks.
Lin Yi'an had never let his sister cry in his life. Seeing her reddened eyes, he panicked and reached out to wipe away her tears. Lin Yiluo turned her head away and slapped his hand away, refusing his touch.
The tears flowed more and more fiercely, and Lin Yi'an's heart clenched with them, his voice trembling with urgency.
"Don't cry, baby, don't cry..."
He couldn't bear to see the little one cry. The sight of her tears would bring back a flood of long-forgotten memories, including the hardships his younger sister had endured living alone all these years.
Lin Yiluo lost her parents when she was little. Because of him, she couldn't be by her younger sister's side. He knew better than anyone how pitiful Bao Bao was. Whenever he saw her cry, he wanted to protect her with his life and make her happy.
In Lin Yi'an's heart, he had been worthy of everyone in his life except his own sister. He used his rough hands to wipe away the little girl's tears. The tears stuck to his fingers, and Lin Yi'an felt an indescribable heartache. He was so awful. Why did he have to make his sister cry again?
His baby always cared about him and would hold back her unhappiness without telling him, just so he wouldn't worry. Lin Yi'an suddenly remembered the last time Lin Yilu cried like that. That was a few years ago, when he finally went home to have a meal with the girl before leaving again.
The little baby was so happy to see me off, and I forgot I hadn't given her the gift I brought.
He heard the little girl crying before he even reached the door. He stood in the corner and watched her cry. At that moment, he felt that his little sister was so sensible that it was heartbreaking.
Lin Yi'an made up his mind. So what if he likes Mo Ziyuan? If he likes him, then so be it. Mo Ziyuan is his brother. Although he's a bit of a jerk, has a strong desire to control, and has a lot of bad ideas, he at least has some good points. Once he sets his mind on someone, that's who he is. He completely trusts that Mo Ziyuan will treat his baby well.
In an instant, the man understood a lot. Mo Ziyuan was Mo Ziyuan. With him as his older brother, he would not let his sister be bullied.
"Don't cry, baby, your brother agrees."
