It was already late when Su Wenyang arrived at Yi Zhai. Today is Yi Hang's second birthday. Many guests came to the old house. The servants came in and out under the command of the butler. The long table on the lawn was filled with exquisite cakes and snacks.
Su Wenyang greeted Yi Tian, talked about the company affairs, and then found a quiet corner with the wine. He has a cold temper, and he doesn't like to socialize with people outside of the workplace. Those who want to make friends see Su Tezhu's iceberg face, and they also give up the idea of coming up for a chat.
Yi Tian and Mu Ran were sitting in the courtyard, the two of them were very close to each other, Yi Tian put one hand on the back of Mu Ran's chair, with a posture of complete protection. Yi Hang stood in front of Mu Ran, holding a piece of pastry in his chubby hands and stuffing it into his mouth indiscriminately, his mouth was covered with icing sugar.
Mu Ran bent down and wiped his mouth dumbfounded. Yi Hang stared at him with round eyes, suddenly threw some snacks, raised his legs and climbed on top of him.
Yi Tian watched silently, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pull him down. Yi Hang was still too young, his body wobbled and he almost couldn't stand still, Mu Ran quickly reached out to support him, then turned his head to look at Yi Tian helplessly, finally hugged Yi Hang, and coaxed him with a smile.
I don't know if it was the impact of the car accident before, but Mu Ran has always been very thin, no matter how Yi Tian raises him, he doesn't gain weight. He has an ordinary appearance, but his temperament is very gentle. When he smiles, there is warmth in the corners of his eyes and brows, which makes people want to get close unconsciously.
A servant walked up to Yi Tian and whispered something, and Yi Tian frowned immediately. Mu Ran was talking to him with a smile, Yi Tian's face was still displeased, but he nodded and followed the servant into the house.
As soon as Yi Tian left, everyone looked at Mu Ran unscrupulously. This is the first time he came to Yi's old house after being with Yi Tian, and many people are very curious about him. Before Yi Tian was in the way, no one dared to talk to him. Now that Yi Tian is gone, someone walked over with a wine glass.
It's just that the other party just made a move, and Su Wenyang stood up and walked to Mu Ran's side. No matter what the man asked, he blocked it calmly, didn't let Mu Ran say a word, and didn't give the other party any face. The man was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do, not to mention that Yi Tian was behind Su Wenyang, he alone was not easy to mess with.
The man rubbed his nose and left dejectedly. Mu Ran stood beside Su Wenyang, looking at him cautiously from the side: Su Wenyang's skin is very fair, his nose is straight, and his lips are always pursed habitually, giving people an inaccessible look. Feeling apart.
He looked at the other party's stern face, and after deliberating for a long time, he said: "Su Tezhu, it's okay, I can handle it." As soon as he finished speaking, Su Wenyang frowned slightly, and Mu Ran felt uneasy. In fact, he I have always been in awe of Su Wenyang, and I always feel that he is like a working machine, completing various tasks according to instructions, and never being moved by anything, as if he has no emotion.
Mu Ran has known him for so long, and he has never seen him smile a few times. But Mu Ran also thinks that Su Wenyang is a very good person. On the one hand, he takes good care of Mu Jin. On the other hand, just like before, Mu Ran knows that Su Wenyang is always protecting himself intentionally or unintentionally.
He thought it was just because of Yi Tian's relationship. This kind of maintenance was like a job or task for Su Wenyang, but he never thought that if he didn't pay attention wholeheartedly, how could Su Wenyang always come to him at the first time.
Su Wenyang didn't answer, and he didn't know what to say. Anyway, no matter what Mu Ran thinks, he wants to guard Mu Ran. As for why and how long he will guard, he has never thought about it.
At this time, He Xudong and Xu Ran came with Xu Zhehao and Mu Jin. At noon, Mu Jin was picked up by Xu Ran to pick up Xu Zhehao at the airport. Today was Yi Hang's birthday, and Xu Ran didn't want to make Mu Jin take her around. Who knew that the brat Xu Zhehao wanted Mu Jin to pick him up, and after being scolded by Xu Ran, he rolled around and asked his father to call Mu Ran, and finally got his wish.
Xu Ran was very protective of Mu Ran, and she would not let Mu Ran suffer any disadvantages. Seeing them laughing and talking, Su Wenyang withdrew silently and left the small circle. Not long after he sat down, Mu Jin ran over and handed him a pink candy, and said softly, "Uncle Wenyang eats candy." Su Wenyang froze for a moment, took the candy and thanked him, with a soft smile on his lips.
Xu Zhehao also followed at some point. He glanced at the candy in Su Wenyang's hand, and without saying anything, he took out a piece of chocolate from his bag, peeled off the wrapping paper and fed it to Mu Jin's mouth. Seeing that Mu Jin opened her mouth to eat the chocolate, she peeled off another one and fed it into her own mouth.
The two children laughed and ran away. Su Wenyang looked at their backs, and suddenly remembered that when he and Mu Jin met for the first time, in the dark corridor of the hospital, Mu Jin was sitting on his lap, pulling his clothes nervously, and following his questions He stuttered and answered "Abba took me to see a doctor", "Abba bought dumplings for me to eat", "Abba bought clothes for me to wear".
She was too young to explain the cause and effect of the matter clearly, and she didn't understand what orphans and vagabonds were, so she could only give this simple answer.
At that time, he looked at the uneasy child curled up in a ball, and suddenly he pictured that person standing in the shelter, wanting to take Mu Jin away but letting go with red eyes.
Was it from that time, or earlier, from the fact that he saw his past in the documents, from the fact that he woke up watching him in the hospital, from the fact that he was desperately looking for his whereabouts. Didn't he plant seeds in his heart as early as these times, and then let them germinate and grow into towering trees
Yi Tian didn't know when he would come back. Seeing that Yi Hang was still leaning on Mu Ran, he frowned and reached out to hug Yi Hang. Yi Hang turned his head and buried his face into Mu Ran's neck, pouted his buttocks high, and wrapped his hands tightly around Mu Ran's neck, not letting go no matter what.
Yi Tian's face became more and more ugly, Mu Ran was afraid that he would be really angry, so he hugged Yi Hang and avoided his hand.
Xu Ran didn't know what he said, and He Xudong squatted on the ground laughing. Xu Zhehao watched it amusedly, and tiptoed to grab Yi Hang's small shoes. Yi Hang kicked it a few times, but Xu Zhehao still held on to it. Mu Jin anxiously pulled his hand down, and he stopped moving.
Su Wenyang sat in the corner and watched them. Seeing the smile on Mu Ran's face, his heart seemed to tremble a few times.
This is enough, Su Wenyang thought.
He likes him, but he will never say it. He didn't want to take him as his own, and he didn't want any more twists and turns in his life. He can't do anything for him, but he is by Yi Tian's side, and he will block all those people and things that are not good for Mu Ran, and no one can try to destroy his life.
"Assistant Su Te, go in." Su Wenyang came back to his senses, only to find that Mu Ran was standing not far away, looking at him with a smile. It was dusk at this time, the sky behind him was high and empty, and the clouds were clustered together, showing a flame-like bright red under the reflection of the setting sun.
Su Wenyang looked away, nodded in response, got up and walked towards Mu Ran.
