After returning from winter vacation this time, Michelle clearly felt that her brother was a little different from before.
She couldn't say exactly where, but it seemed like he would hum songs at home, cook his signature dishes for her, always smile when talking to her, and spend time with her on her birthday with Bai Luochuan... Yes, this place is different. It seemed like her brother and Bai Luochuan never separated during this winter vacation. The young master of the Bai family came to her house several times. If her brother hadn't usually gone to the pharmacy to help out, he would probably have moved in and stayed for a while.
But even so, when Michelle occasionally went to the pharmacy to deliver something to her brother, she would still meet Master Bai who was organizing the shelves.
Mi Xue had seen him less often in the past two years, but she would still see him a few times when her brother came home, so she was not too reserved with Bai Luochuan and greeted him politely, "Hello, Brother Bai."
Bai Luochuan nodded, holding a bottle of cough syrup in his hand and putting it on the shelf while looking at it. There was also a small basket next to it, which contained some scattered medicines.
Michelle curled her lips. She could finish this little thing in minutes. It was obvious that her brother had specially asked this person to do this.
The little girl felt a little jealous. She had always felt for so many years that her brother treated Bai Luochuan better than her. She was a child and her brother usually gave in to her. Bai Luochuan was so old already, why did her brother still treat him like a child
Mi Yang came down from upstairs with two lists in his hand. He checked them with the people in the pharmacy and marked them. Then he saw Mi Xue and waved her over. Mi Xue ran over and just stood still before she could say anything. Her brother shook her hand and asked, "Are you cold?"
Michelle shook her head, and suddenly something was placed in her palm. She looked down and saw a piece of candy.
Mi Yang rubbed her head and said with a smile: "Eat it. You consume more in winter, so you don't have to worry about getting fat if you eat candy."
Michelle smiled, peeled off the candy wrapper and ate one. It was her favorite chocolate candy with nuts.
Bai Luochuan, who had just placed the medicines on the table, also came over and glanced at Michelle, who was puzzled. Then she saw the man, who was much taller than her, reaching out to open her brother's pocket a little and whispered, "How many are left?"
Michelle: “…”
Michelle thought this person was really shameless. She was so old, but she actually asked her brother for candy?!
Mi Yang patted his wrist and said with a smile: "There are more. There is a box upstairs. It's not like you didn't see it. Be careful or Xiaoxue will laugh at you later."
Bai Luochuan looked up at the little girl, and the girl, who was about ten years old, was really looking at him with her eyes wide open. He also took a look and quickly went to rummage through Mi Yang's pockets. By doing this, it seemed that all the candies belonged to him, and Mi Yang gave him two pieces to let him take them away.
Michelle had mixed feelings, but her brother was the only one who dared to say that to Bai Luochuan, and she would never dare to do that.
When Bai Luochuan was ten meters away from her brother, he was in a different state. Not to mention "making fun of" him, even if he wanted to make a joke he had to look at his eldest master's expression. His cold eyes would make people look away and not dare to speak casually.
After delivering the things, Mi Xue hesitated for a long time. Mi Yang also glanced at her and asked with a smile: "Do you want to stay and have lunch together?"
Michelle's eyes lit up, she nodded, and then looked towards Bai Luochuan with a bit of cautious anticipation, like a child waiting for the nod of approval from her two parents.
Bai Luochuan raised the corner of his lips, and said in a good mood: "Stay, I'll take you out for a good meal at noon."
Michelle didn't care what to eat, she just missed her brother, and after getting permission, she happily rolled up her sleeves and started to work. She was quick and efficient, not at all squeamish. She also took charge of the small basket of medicine boxes next to Bai Luochuan, and sorted them all out on the shelf, trying her best to show her performance.
Bai Luochuan stood aside calmly, leaning on the table and watching for a while, then suddenly bent down and said to Mi Yang: "Look at her, does she look like when we were kids visiting other people's homes?"
Mi Yang looked up at him while writing something and said with a smile: "That's enough, she is my biological sister, if you want to be a guest, you should come to my house as a guest."
Bai Luochuan stayed beside him without moving a step, and said lazily: "I still remember what you said that day. We are a family after all. Why should I be a guest in my own home?"
He stood beside Mi Yang openly and was more confident than Mi Xue who was trying hard to show how hardworking she was.
Mi Yang was so amused by him that he couldn't stop laughing and could hardly write.
At noon, Bai Luochuan took Mi Xue to a good meal as promised. A restaurant they often visited had just launched a new dish, boiled Australian lobster, which was fresh, spicy, full of flavor, and the meat was tender. Mi Yang and his sister both loved it, and Bai Luochuan ordered another portion. He was much happier to see Mi Yang eat more than he was to eat himself.
While eating, Michelle quietly discussed with her brother about going home for the New Year. "Mom said that we should go back first, and she and Dad will come back in a few days. It's busy at the end of the year. In fact, I also wanted to stay and help, but Mom wouldn't let me."
Mi Yang picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork for her and said with a smile: "Your test scores have improved by two places, and our mother is already very happy. You don't have to stay to help, the pharmacy has enough staff."
Michelle blushed, took a few bites of rice and said, "But brother always gets first place in the exam, and I'm only in the top five, which is not good enough. Besides, you've been helping out in the pharmacy and don't go home to sleep at night. I also want to do more work."
The girl's voice was soft, but there were only three of them in the room, so they could hear it clearly.
This time it was Mi Yang's turn to have a hot face. He coughed and said, "It's okay. You, you should focus on your studies now. There's no rush for other things. My brother is about to graduate and has nothing to do. Just stay in the pharmacy..." He couldn't make up any more stories. Bai Luochuan next to him was already laughing. He stepped on Bai Luochuan and changed the subject with red ears, "Did our mother say to prepare anything to bring back? Have you packed all the medicine for grandma?"
Michelle was an obedient little girl. She immediately started to answer obediently, chirping like a little sparrow. She didn't notice her brother's embarrassment at all. In her eyes, her brother was always the best!
After lunch and sending Michelle away, Mi Yang finally felt slightly relieved.
Bai Luochuan next to him was still laughing and wanted to come over to hug him, but Mi Yang pressed his shoulder and stopped him, "Why aren't you leaving yet? Didn't you say you had something to do at the company this afternoon?"
Bai Luochuan was stronger than him, so he leaned over to hug him, rubbed his nose against his, and said with a smile, "Wait a while before leaving. It's rare for us to be alone together."
Mi Yang looked up at him and said nothing.
Bai Luochuan corrected him, "I mean during the day, you didn't feed me when I was eating, you didn't let me hold you when you were drinking water, and you didn't let me touch your hand when I sent Xiaoxue home. Now it's just the two of us, and you won't let me kiss you even when we close the door?"
Mi Yang said: "You kissed last night."
Bai Luochuan immediately raised his eyebrows: "Then why did you give my candy to your sister?" He leaned over and kissed Mi Yang's lips, biting them lightly while smiling and kissing him, "We agreed that if there is one less, I will compensate you with ten."
This is simply an unfair clause. There was no such rule at all. Master Bai made up one and tried to announce it in broad daylight. His attempt failed, but he still kissed her enough and went to work in the company happily.
He felt that the pharmacy was his office space. He was not very focused on the company's office these past two days.
There's no way. He had just proposed successfully, and at this moment he wanted to stick with his wife the most. It's normal for young people to be like this.
Master Bai, who has been with the couple for more than 20 years, didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. On the way to the company, he started thinking: Should I bring a bottle of champagne or red wine when I come back in the evening
