* Early the next morning.

In the living room of the owner's house.

The servant reported to Shi's mother hesitantly.

"…Madam, the eldest young master hasn't woken up yet."

Shi's mother paused while flipping through the magazine, looked at the time, and frowned instantly.

It’s already this late.

Xiaoxuan has always had a good schedule since he was a child, especially in front of his elders, he would never do anything rude like getting up late.

What happened today? After a while, Mr. Shi should come back from morning exercise outside. Mr. Shi is really enthusiastic about morning exercise. Although the doctor told him to keep warm and avoid the wind last night, he still put on an extra layer of clothes this morning and insisted on going out for a walk.

Shi's mother closed the magazine and said, "I'll go take a look."

* Shi's mother finally understood why the servant had been hesitating just now.

He arrived at the detached building where Shi Xuan lived, went upstairs, stood at the door, and was about to raise his hand to knock.

The door was not closed at all. It opened by itself as soon as I touched it.

A strong smell of alcohol hit me in the face.

The smell made the mother frown.

There were no curtains in the huge living room, and all the light from outside the window poured in. From the doorway, empty wine bottles were everywhere, rolling and lying on the floor.

Shi's mother looked over in disbelief and saw that her son, whom she had thought had gotten up late, was now sitting dejectedly on the sofa, with his head tilted back and his eyes closed. In his hand was a bottle of unfinished wine, and red liquid was pouring out of the bottle, staining the carpet.

This is not getting up late.

This is, no sleep at all, hungover all night.

Shi's mother had never seen her usually proud and willful son in such a miserable state. He was in such a miserable state to the extreme.

"What are you all standing there for?! Hurry up and get the master a bowl of hangover soup!"

* “Xiaoxuan, do you know what you are doing?!”

"If your grandfather knew what you did just now, do you know what the consequences would be?!"

The man leaned back dejectedly.

After a sleepless night, his chin was covered with stubble.

Faced with his mother's stern questioning, he seemed to be deaf and his eyes were unfocused.

"Mother, I lost her."

Shi's mother was stunned. She didn't hear clearly: "What?"

Then he reacted clearly and frowned to warn: "Xiaoxuan, since you have broken up with that woman, don't—"

Shi's mother thought that Shi Xuan was talking about Gu Yun.

Then the next second, she looked at her son, with pain in her eyes, and then she murmured a name.

“…”

After hearing those two words, Shi's mother was completely stunned, with a look of surprise on her face: "Xiaoxuan you..."

I almost thought I heard it wrong.

The result is not.

Because Shi Xuan repeated the name again.

Yes, Sheng Yuan.

"She should have liked me. At the beginning, the person she liked was obviously me."

“…”

"Mom, I want her to like me again."

In the astonished eyes of Shi Mu.

Shi Xuan raised his head, his deep eyes filled with unprecedented unwillingness and determination.

* It was only when the servant called out for the third time that Shi's mother finally responded.

"Ma'am, dinner is about to begin."

Shi's mother breathed out reluctantly, "Yes, I understand."

There was a noise in the hallway.

The old man came back during morning exercise.

Mother Shi adjusted her expression and was about to stand up to greet him when she saw another tall figure next to Old Man Shi.

"Xiao Yan, let's have breakfast together."

"No."

The young man was wearing a black sports suit with two white vertical stripes on the arms of the shirt and on the sides of his trousers, which made him look elegant and had a cool, boyish aura that seemed quite distant.

It was obvious that they had just returned from morning exercise with the old man.

He was in a cold mood and rejected Mr. Shi's invitation. He bent one elbow, put his hand in his trouser pocket, stopped in front of the hallway, and after saying that, he turned around and left coldly.

Being able to have someone accompany him for morning exercises is already Shi Yan's biggest relief.

Turn around.

I saw that Shi's mother was looking at this side with a vigilant and defensive expression.

The smile on the old man's face gradually faded.

Restore the normal dignity and solemnity.

He walked in slowly accompanied by the butler.

"Dad, let's have breakfast--"

But Mr. Shi stopped and suddenly said bluntly to Mother Shi: "I don't want to say more about the sin you two have committed."

"But you can rest assured that he will not compete with Xiaoxuan for anything in this house."

So, don't stare at him anymore.

After saying.

Old Man Shi ignored Mother Shi's increasingly ugly expression and walked straight past her towards the restaurant.

* [Shi Yan, good morning~] [I think you are right, Lai Lai really needs to lose weight, I can’t even hold it anymore.] [It is no longer a kitten, it should be a piglet.] [That’s it, it seems to have heard my bad words, it won’t eat any more food, even its favorite canned food, it is not interested in it anymore.] The notification sound ding dong ding dong kept coming from Shi Yan’s phone.

The young man held the phone in one hand, watching the messages pop up on the screen, his dark eyes half hidden in his black hair, revealing a hint of smile.

He liked her 'nagging' very much.

[Shi Yan, have you had breakfast~] Shi Yan moved his fingers.

When typing a reply.

A greeting came from the front garden.

"Young Master."

"Young Master."

On the cobblestone path leading to the main hall.

After Shi Xuan washed up and changed into clean clothes, there was no trace of the dishevelled appearance of a drunkard sitting on the ground. He had returned to his former cool self.

He was buttoning his shirt cuffs.

The next second, I saw a slender figure walking not far away. Suddenly, his movements paused and his steps came to a complete stop.

Shi Xuan's deep eyes and gaze immediately became sharp.

But the figure ignored him and didn't even look at him.

The two were about to pass each other.

Shi Xuan seemed to be unable to hold his temper and spoke first.

"Shi Yan."

This was not the first time that Shi Xuan called Shi Yan's name, but it was the first time that Shi Xuan took Shi Yan seriously and called him by these two words in a serious manner.

However, the person whose name was called did not even pause for a moment, completely ignoring the person.

until.

Hearing this, Shi Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "I will take her back."

The sound of the wind suddenly stopped.

Shi Xuan turned around.

The person opposite was holding a mobile phone in his hand. The exposed side of his hand had distinct joints and cold white skin. His slender figure stood alone. His dark eyes slowly raised and looked over with a cold gaze.

He looked at Shi Xuan.

The emotion in the eyes is like the chill in the silent night

The air seemed to be filled with flames, confronting each other.

"I will make Sheng Yuan fall in love with me again."

Shi Xuan looked at Shi Yan and repeated.

The air is quiet.

It was so quiet that even the subtle sound of crystal dewdrops sliding down the flowers and trees could be heard.

Then.

A low-pitched, cold voice sounded lightly, brushing against the wind.

"You try it."

I'm stuck.

I drank some wine on purpose, hoping it would give me some inspiration.

I'll post this chapter as soon as I finish writing it.

A word of advice.

Shi Xuan will only be a tool.
