Lu Xiao gently reminded her to drink more hot water and eat less ice, then hung up the phone.

Shen Ci put down his phone in a daze, muttering, "No way..."

The phone rang again and Shen Ci hurriedly picked it up.

"Who were you talking to on the phone just now?" Shen Bie's voice was a little gloomy, as if a storm was about to come.

"Brother?" Shen Ci smiled in surprise: "Why did you suddenly call me?"

Shen Bie snorted coldly: "Yeah, I finally found time to call you, but you happened to be busy."

"Tell me, which little bastard stole my phone!"

Shen Ci chuckled and said, "It's my uncle."

Shen Bie: “…”

He coughed a few times unnaturally and changed the subject: "Ah, that...my dad gave me a three-day holiday recently."

"Aren't you filming a variety show and setting up a B&B? I'll go play there tomorrow."

Shen Ci was dumbfounded again: "No..."

Shen Bie made a "tsk" sound, clearly angry: "What's the matter, are you still abandoning your brother?"

Shen Ci said cautiously: "No, no, I'm afraid you won't have a good time here."

Shen Bie: "Why would I feel uncomfortable? We haven't seen each other much since the Chinese New Year. Even if you don't miss me, I still do."

Shen Ci: "But my uncle said he will come tomorrow too..."

Shen Bie: “…”

He paused for half a minute before taking a breath and speaking again: "Uncle Lu, is Lu going?"

Shen Bie asked suspiciously, "Do you not want me to come, so you are making up excuses to deceive me? How can it be such a coincidence?"

Shen Ci was wronged: "I was wondering if the two of you had agreed to punish me!"

After a long stalemate with his baby brother, Shen Bie finally made up his mind.

"No matter what, I've watched the first episode. Shao Jinhuan actually came to deliver a blanket to harass you in the middle of the night?"

"Humph, I think he wants to be punched!"

"Also, if you want to eat something, just give me a list and I'll bring it to you."

He hung up after he finished speaking. Shen Ci held the phone in his hand, feeling extremely worried.

To accommodate Lu Xiao and Shen Bie at the same time...the most difficult thing is that it seems that there are no vacancies at all.

He happened to be on night duty at the B&B with Cheng Yun tonight, so after dinner he rushed to the front desk of the B&B to check the check-in records.

Shen Ci scanned the room carefully from beginning to end and found that there was at least one vacant room until the day after tomorrow.

Shen Ci had no choice but to contact the fruit farmers he was familiar with and ask them to help clear out two rooms.

Although my uncle and elder brother feel a little unfair, there is nothing we can do about it.

The next day at noon, Shen Ci was having lunch with everyone in the B&B when he heard shouting outside.

"Shen! Xiao! Ci——"

Shen Ci was so frightened that his hands began to shake and the food in his chopsticks fell out.

Without bothering to explain to everyone, he quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and went out to greet them.

Shen Bie, dressed in casual clothes, was holding a suitcase. The two secretaries following behind him were carrying large and small bags, which were so full of snacks that they were about to overflow.

Shen Bie gritted his teeth with a sullen face. This journey had been extremely bad, and he was getting angrier and angrier. Now all he needed was a fuse to make him explode.

The sufferings he suffered were what Shen Ci had experienced many times!

The pampered child of the Shen family had gone through countless hardships while working in the entertainment industry, and now he was thrown into this hellhole to be tortured.

Shen Bie felt upset, but Shen Ci seemed to be enjoying it?

He really couldn't understand this kid. She was so spoiled before.

However, when he saw his baby brother's happy and beautiful smile, Shen Bie's anger immediately disappeared.

Shen Ci smiled brilliantly, ran over in a few steps and threw himself on Shen Bie: "Brother!"

Shen Bie was almost knocked down. He caught his brother with a look of disdain, but couldn't help but curl his lips: "How old are you? Why do you still like to knock people down so much?"

"Why did you bring so many snacks? I didn't give you a list..."

"How can I not bring such a big cat with me? I know all the brands and flavors of your favorites by heart."

"Wow, bro you're awesome!"

The cameraman, whose pupils were trembling, followed beside them, trying his best to keep a calm expression and filming carefully.

Shen Bie suddenly turned around and gave the camera a smug smile: "This kid is mine, are you jealous?"

Shen Ci was at a loss:?

"Okay, stop looking," Shen Bie patted his brother's back and changed the subject: "Let me find a place to rest."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ci got off Shen Bie and took his brother to the villager's house.

"The B&B is full. There's really no room left. Brother, you can stay here first." Shen Ci opened the door for him: "I came to clean and tidy up this morning."

Shen Bie was quite disgusted when he first entered this shabby little house, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he raised his eyebrows: "Did you clean it yourself?"

"Yes, I'm very skilled at sweeping and mopping the floor now." Shen Ci raised his head proudly, like a well-behaved puppy asking for praise.

Shen Bie rubbed Shen Ci's hair vigorously: "You are really capable, really amazing."

Shen Ci laughed.

After knowing that this was cleaned by Xiaoci, who had never touched water in the world, the dilapidated house seemed to have been automatically filtered in Shen Bie's eyes, and it was so spotless that it sparkled.

Shen Bie even wanted to completely dismantle the room and transport it back to the Shen family for preservation.

Shen Ci: "Brother, do you think this room is okay?"

Shen Bie smiled: "I like it very much."

Shen Ci then breathed a sigh of relief. Since Shen Bie was so easy to talk to, then Lu Xiao should also be... no problem?

Not long after, Lu Xiao also arrived.

Shen Ci learned his lesson this time and waited obediently at the entrance of the village. From a distance he saw a minibus bumping towards him.

The car stopped and Lu Xiao got out with a bad look on his face.

Shen Ci came over and handed him some water: "Uncle, are you okay? Have a drink first, this car is a bit too bumpy..."

Lu Xiao's face turned pale. He didn't take the water. Instead, he lowered his eyes and said softly, "My hands don't have much strength."

Shen Ci immediately squeezed the hot water for Lu Xiao with a bit of heartache, then passed it to him and took the briefcase from his hand.

"Thank you for your hard work, uncle. Come with me and have a rest."

Special Assistant Min lowered his head to the ground, silently making himself blind and mute.

Clearly, just now in the car, the president was still energetic and talking on the phone about business cooperation, and yet he was setting a trap with a sinister smile on his face.

How come the moment I saw Young Master Shen...

Forget it. As long as it has anything to do with Young Master Shen, the president will be particularly weird.

Special Assistant Min said he was numb.

Lu Xiao: "Where are you going?"

Shen Ci: "Uh, a villager's house..."

Seeing that Lu Xiao's brows seemed to wrinkle, Shen Ci spoke in a lower voice, feeling a little guilty.

As expected, Lu Xiao said calmly: "Are there any other options?"

The B&B was full, and Lu Xiao didn't want to stay in this kind of room. Shen Ci hesitated for a long time and couldn't say anything.

Lu Xiao smiled helplessly: "Can I live with you?"

Shen Ci: “?!”

***

So, when Shen Bie asked for the address and came to play with his brother, he opened the door and saw Lu Xiao sitting at the table reading a book in his home clothes, while Shen Ci was lying on the big bed eating snacks, and the two were still chatting.

Shen Bie blurted out "Fuck!" This situation - did Lu Xiao move directly into Shen Ci's room? !

Comparing the treatment of the two people, the originally bright and shining "house cleaned by Shen Ci himself" suddenly dimmed...

He was so focused on guarding against Shao Jinhuan that he actually forgot about the big devil Lu Xiao!

Moreover, Xiao Ci actually invited her to live with him in the house. Has he become so naughty as to seduce Lu Xiao... The kid he raised is really not obedient to his brother.

Thousands of crying alpacas ran wildly through Shen Bie's heart, and in the end he could only utter three words: "...Hello, Uncle Lu."

Lu Xiao raised his eyes and looked at him, his deep eyes showing no emotion, and nodded slightly.

Shen Bie sat on the edge of the bed. He could still vaguely feel the cold look Lu Xiao inadvertently cast at him, and his heart was filled with sadness and anger.

I really want to beat up Lu Xiao, but he really doesn't dare...

Shen Ci was happily humming a song, eating snacks, and browsing his phone, completely unaware of the strange and tense atmosphere between the two of them.

***

In the afternoon, Shen Ci took Lu Xiao to the mountains to pick cherries as planned.

The fruit farmer specially picked big and red ones for Lu Xiao. Lu Xiao picked one from the basket and put it next to Shen Ci's mouth.

Shen Ci opened his mouth and ate it, smiling: "I want more!"

Lu Xiao's eyes were filled with tenderness as he wiped them clean one by one and fed them to Shen Ci.

They said hello to the production crew, so Shen Ci had a rare relaxing afternoon away from the camera, and he clung to Lu Xiao without restraint.

"You two have such a good relationship!" The fruit farmer saw the two of them looking so cute and said with a smile, "Is this your father?"

"..." Lu Xiao suddenly fell silent.

Shen Ci burst out laughing: "Does he look so old?"

The fruit farmer smiled innocently: "Ah? No, no. I just saw that you two are so close despite your young age. I was just guessing!"

Shen Ci made a few jokes with him and passed the matter over.

The fruit farmer had almost picked all the cherries from the tree he had climbed up. Just as he was about to move on to another tree, he noticed that the sky was a little gloomy.

"Oh no..." he murmured, "It's going to rain."

Shen Ci was a little panicked when he heard this: "Then, let's get down the mountain quickly."

He hurriedly helped the fruit farmers pack up and return.

However, the weather was not good. When the three of them were halfway up the mountain road, raindrops as big as beans began to fall.

The fruit farmer was also anxious: "It's too late. I have a small house nearby. How about hiding there first?"

Shen Ci nodded quickly: "Yeah, just don't let my uncle get wet."

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the right hand that Lu Xiao was holding seemed to be held tighter.

The rain was getting heavier, Shen Ci had no time to think deeply, and hurried on his way.

After being half soaked, the three of them finally reached the house and went in to take shelter from the rain.

This is a small hut where fruit farmers occasionally stay when they go to see the mountains. It has a complete set of daily necessities.

The fruit farmer went to light the coal stove, Shen Ci asked for a towel and stood on tiptoe to help Lu Xiao wipe his wet hair.

Lu Xiao silently clamped his wrist to stop him, then forcefully picked him up and sat him down on the hard bed.

"Be good."

His voice was deep, husky, and irresistible.

Shen Ci stood there in a daze, staring at Lu Xiao as he took out a towel and slowly and methodically began to wipe his hair.

"Uncle..." Shen Ci called softly.

"Hmm?" Lu Xiao's nasal tone was lazy and magnetic, and he lowered his eyes to glance at Shen Ci.

"I……"

Shen Ci regretted taking Lu Xiao to the mountain to play today. He wanted to apologize, but he knew very well that Lu Xiao would just smile calmly and say "it's okay".

This only made him feel more guilty.

The two fell into silence. After the fruit farmer started the fire, he stood by the window and watched the sky. The only sound in the room was the crackling sound of the fire.

After wiping Shen Ci, Lu Xiao rubbed his head briefly, then sat next to Shen Ci and held him in his arms.

Lu Xiao: "Are you cold?"

Shen Ci nodded, and Lu Xiao said nothing, holding the person tighter in his arms.

Both of them had their clothes half wet, and their warm body temperatures were transferred to each other. Shen Ci felt much warmer, and closed his eyes tiredly...

***

"A small word."

Suddenly awakened, Shen Ci looked at Lu Xiao in a daze.

Lu Xiao raised the corner of his mouth, pinched his earlobe and said softly: "The rain has stopped."

Shen Ci rubbed his eyes and got up from Lu Xiao's arms. Outside, the only sound left was the wind blowing through the leaves.

A dim kerosene lamp was lit on the table. The fruit farmer had fallen asleep leaning against the wall. Shen Ci quietly opened the door and walked out.

Shen Ci shuddered as the cool breeze from the rain hit his face. He folded his arms and looked up.

The dark night falls, and the stars scattered all over the place are as bright as diamonds.

This is a mountainous area with little pollution and a high altitude, so you can appreciate such a beautiful starry sky.

Lu Xiao went back and pulled a faded bed sheet to cover Shen Ci. The image was so funny that even Shen Ci himself laughed.

There was lush grass and trees in front of the house, and the ground was not very slippery after the rain, so the two of them took a leisurely walk.

"It's dark and it's raining. I guess we can't go back until tomorrow morning." Shen Ci sighed. It was really unlucky.

Lu Xiao didn't seem to care: "It's a rare leisurely night."

Shen Ci smiled and was about to respond when he caught a glimpse of movement out of the corner of his eye.

He looked up at the sky in a daze. A few meteors suddenly streaked across the sky, and no one knew where they fell.

"Meteor!" Shen Ci shouted in surprise and jumped several times with joy.

Shen Ci looked at Lu Xiao and smiled brilliantly: "Uncle, make a wish! Any wish you make when a shooting star passes by will come true! Remember not to tell anyone!"

The sky was suddenly bright, and the Milky Way flowed stunningly in Shen Ci's dark eyes. Lu Xiao subconsciously held his breath.

The stars dimmed in an instant, and all Lu Xiao could see was the innocent smile of the person in front of him. The treasure hidden in his heart...suddenly began to pry open his strictly guarded rationality.

Shen Ci closed his eyes, crossed his hands and held them against his chest, with a happy smile on his face.

Boom, boom, boom…

The emotions that had been surging in his heart for more than ten years became more and more unbridled. Lu Xiao's breathing became rapid and his eyes gradually turned red.

"My wish..."

Lu Xiao held up Shen Ci's face, and in Shen Ci's surprised look, he lowered his head and kissed his lips.
