The evening breeze was blowing, and the fragrance of gardenias poured into the nostrils.
It was quiet for a while behind the flowers, and Jiang Rui said softly, "Sixth brother suddenly asked this for what?"
These words were like a basin of cold water, which was violently poured on Huo Changyao, causing him to be chilled and at the same time regaining his senses.
He moved his legs with difficulty and quietly left the place.
Although Lao Liu once said that Xiao Qi likes his brother, he could hear that the liking just now was different from the liking between brothers and sisters.
luv't…
The person Xiao Qi likes is actually the second child.
Yesterday, he was still thinking that the young people in Fengcheng are not worthy of their Xiaoqi, and no matter who entrusts her to her, he will not feel at ease.
But if the object is the second child, will it be different
The second child is young and handsome, humorous and witty. They have grown up together since childhood, so don’t worry about his character. Although sometimes he likes to tease Xiao Qi, but more often, he can always make her happy. Besides, he has a lot of respect for Xiao Qi. love.
In this way, there is really no one more suitable than him.
Huo Changyao frowned, he felt that he should be relieved to let go of a worry, but his heart felt like a weight fell, heavy and cold.
On the other side, Xu Hansheng brought this up for no reason. He was hanging out with Huo Changlin's friends today, and he overheard them mentioning the reason why Huo Changlin went abroad. , Xu Hansheng was afraid that Xiaoqi would be sad after learning about it, so he wanted to come and find out what she said.
"It's not a whim, I've been wanting to ask you recently, and I only found an opportunity today." Xu Hansheng said.
Jiang Rui frowned slightly, as if thinking about how to speak.
The real seventh miss of the Huo family, Pan Susu, of course likes Huo Changlin. Now that she has become her, she has no intention of denying it, but she can like it or not, and time can always change everything.
She said: "I used to like the second brother, but this time he came back to see him again, the feeling seems to be a lot lighter, and now I just want to regard him as a brother."
Xu Hansheng breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "That's good." After thinking about it, he told her the truth: "Actually, the sixth brother heard the second brother's friend mention today that the reason why he went abroad was because the second concubine opposed him. With a girl, the second brother still can't forget that girl."
Jiang Rui suddenly said, "It's no wonder that the second brother left in such a hurry."
Seeing her expression, Xu Hansheng really let it go, and then nodded, "I heard that the second aunt forced the girl's family to relocate. The second brother has been asking people to find their whereabouts all these years, and wants to make some compensation."
Jiang Rui frowned and shook her head gently, "If I were the second brother, I wouldn't go looking for that girl until I persuaded the second aunt, otherwise what would I do if the second aunt found trouble with their family again?"
"This..." Xu Hansheng was stunned for a moment, and it seemed to be the case, "Alas, Er Yiniang is always an elder. It's hard to talk about this kind of thing, let's not talk about it."
The two entered the room, Huo Changyao sat on the sofa with a normal expression, saw them, and said, "Come back? Let's have dinner."
Jiang Rui had just felt that he had gone for a walk in the garden. At this time, seeing his expression, he knew that he was mostly covering up, so he also acted as if he didn't notice it.
After dinner, Xu Hansheng left, Jiang Rui went back to the room to take a shower, and honestly turned out the homework that was left behind to write.
Usually when she was doing her homework in the study, Huo Changyao would always read a book by the side, but he didn't show up today.
As Jiang Rui moved the pen, she imagined in her mind his possible actions and countermeasures.
With Huo Changyao's character, if he knew that she had a heart, he would most likely choose to be fulfilled.
All she had to do was to let him fail.
Otherwise, once the two get divorced and separated, I'm afraid he will hide from her far away, what else is there to talk about to complete the task
After finishing the homework and returning to the room, we need to pass through Huo Changyao's room. In the past, he had changed into his home clothes and read a book on the sofa, but today he is still wearing a straight military uniform, standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, wondering what he was thinking.
"Brother, aren't you ready to rest?" Jiang Rui asked him.
Huo Changyao paused and slowly turned around, "Big brother has something to tell you, sit down for a while."
"Okay." Jiang Rui sat on the sofa, watching him come over and sit opposite her.
Huo Changyao frowned, but he didn't speak for a long time.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Rui also became nervous and moved on the sofa: "Brother, did something happen?"
"No." Huo Changyao said, but after saying these two words, he pursed his lips again. He never knew that just a few words could be so hard to say.
Perhaps he also expected something in his heart, not that it was difficult to say it, but that he did not want to say it in his heart.
However, it has to be said.
He pursed the corners of his mouth into a straight line, and asked Jiang Rui's increasingly nervous expression, "Xiao Qi, what kind of person do you like?"
"Huh?" Jiang Rui blinked, thinking that she had heard it wrong, and then she couldn't help laughing and crying: "Brother, did you make the atmosphere so serious just to ask me this? You scared me to death."
But Huo Changyao didn't find it funny, and was still waiting for her answer.
So Jiang Rui had to say: "Like a person is not like what he likes to eat and what he likes to wear, but no matter what, he must be a good person."
"For example? Do you have someone you once liked?" Huo Changyao asked again.
Jiang Rui's eyes wandered for a while, but she didn't look into his eyes, "No."
He knew that she was lying, and although he already knew it, his heart sank uncontrollably.
He said softly: "Big brother said before that if there is someone you like, bring it back and show it to me. If that person is really good, big brother will support you."
Jiang Rui nodded indiscriminately, "I know, eldest brother has said this several times."
Seeing that she didn't mean to admit it, Huo Changyao felt a little bit of joy in his heart, but he quickly told himself that this was wrong.
In any case, he cannot be a stumbling block in Xiao Qi's pursuit of happiness.
He lowered his eyelids, and the light came from one side, casting a shadow on his deep features.
"The second child is actually pretty good," he said suddenly and slowly.
Jiang Rui looked up at him sharply, Huo Changyao looked at her, turned away, and looked at the curtains that were gently blown by the wind.
"What you said before counts. When you have someone you like, it's up to you to decide whether or not to end the marriage. You don't have to worry too much. Mother, even if she objects for a while, you must accept the facts sooner or later. , I will persuade her."
Jiang Rui was silent for a long time, and when she spoke, her voice was a little awkward: "...Did you hear something, eldest brother?"
Huo Changyao nodded and said apologetically, "I was going to the garden to find you and Liu Liu before dinner. I overheard your conversation by accident. Big brother didn't mean it."
"Has the big brother heard it all?" Jiang Rui smiled wryly.
Huo Changyao realized something and frowned, "What's wrong? Did the second child bully you?"
"What does this have to do with the second brother? I liked him, but who stipulates that if he likes a person, that person must respond?"
"The second child doesn't like you?" Huo Changyao heard her voice.
"Yeah," Jiang Rui laughed at herself, "Second brother not only doesn't like me, but also has someone he likes, so please let him go, don't drag him into the water, if the eldest brother wants to get rid of my burden, just say Now, why be so bewildering?"
Jiang Rui knew that this was to express anger and make trouble unreasonably, but what she wanted was to make trouble, how could he panic if she didn't make trouble? How can you mess him up? How can you let him lose his sense
Only if he doesn't have time to think rationally can he achieve what she wants.
Huo Changyao was stunned for a moment before he said, "That's not what Big Brother meant—"
"What does that mean?" Jiang Rui interrupted him, "When my eldest brother was in a coma, and my mother wanted me to celebrate, I actually didn't want to, but my mother asked me that way. The Huo family has nurturing me, and my eldest brother is like a real brother. Can I just watch you disappear? I know that my eldest brother has never liked me very much. I remember everything you said the day you woke up, so my eldest brother doesn’t have to remind me again and again. If you have someone you like, I will bring it to you Look, I can understand that you are afraid that I rely on you, but you don't have to push me out when you meet someone like this!"
Huo Changyao was already confused by her face-to-face remarks.
Who said he never liked her? Who said he kept pushing her out
How could he not like her? Why would you want to push her out
But before he could explain, Jiang Rui had already turned her head and ran back to her room, Huo Changyao immediately got up and followed.
This is the first time Jiang Rui has entered her room after moving in, but he is not in the mood to appreciate it right now.
Jiang Rui was lying on the head of the bed, her face buried in the pillow, and her shoulders trembled slightly.
Huo Changyao stopped, only to feel a dull pain in his chest, and his throat seemed to be stuffed with a ball of cotton. He opened his mouth several times, but couldn't make a sound.
It seemed like a long time, and it seemed like only a moment, he approached slowly, as if a thousand-pound hand was raised and lightly placed on her shoulder, "Xiao Qi..."
"Don't touch me!" Jiang Rui reacted violently.
Huo Changyao shrank his fingers, opened them again after a while, and stroked her hair, "Don't cry, it's the big brother's fault."
Jiang Rui turned her head several times, but couldn't avoid his palm. She was so angry and annoyed that she grabbed the pillow and hit him, "I hate big brother! I hate big brother the most! I hate it the most!"
She shouted fiercely and moved her hands fiercely, but her eyes and nose were red, and her face was full of tears.
Huo Changyao finally couldn't hold back, and regardless of her struggles, he hugged him firmly with a pillow in his arms.
The author has something to say:
Jiang Rui: I'm exhausted, so I'll rest for a while.
