The room fell completely silent.
Xia Wennan tried his best to put his ear on the door, wanting to know what Minqin would say, but he waited for a long time but couldn't get it.
Ming Siyan stood up first. He seemed to have been squatting for a long time, his feet were already numb, and he stomped on the ground a few times. In fact, he stomped very lightly, but the surroundings were too quiet, and the footsteps were still a little obvious.
After stamping, Ming Siyan was stunned for a while, and looked up at the closed door in front of him.
Xia Wennan did hear a slight commotion in the study room. He was afraid that the people inside would open the door to look at Ming Siyan's footsteps at any time. He might be a little embarrassed at that time, so he got up and walked towards the stairs.
Ming Siyan also followed, and the two went downstairs one after the other in silence.
When he reached the second floor, Ming Siyan quickened his pace to catch up with Xia Wennan. He grabbed Xia Wennan's arm and said, "Wennan, go to my room."
Xia Wennan responded casually: "It's not suitable for those who are lonely and widowed."
Ming Siyan said, "Huh? We used to chat like this too."
"After all, it's different now. I'm more conscious."
Ming Siyan seemed a little disappointed, but he still didn't let go of Xia Wennan's wrist, and said, "Brother is really lucky, without you, he definitely wouldn't have the confidence to talk to Dad like this."
Xia Wennan probably already figured out Ming Siyan's thinking mode, he said: "Then why don't you break up with your boyfriend and stay with me?"
Ming Siyan was suddenly surprised and said: "Is it possible?"
"... Do you think it's okay?"
"What? Didn't you say it?"
"I don't think so."
Ming Siyan looked disappointed: "I knew you were playing tricks on me." After speaking, his hand slowly slipped down and grabbed Xia Wennan's hand.
This time Xia Wennan failed to escape smoothly, he could only look down at the hands they held together, and asked Ming Siyan: "What are you doing?"
Ming Siyan said, "I want to talk to you."
"Let go of my hand and we'll talk again."
"Let go and you're gone."
"Then you have something to say quickly."
Ming Siyan said: "I only now know why my elder brother gave up on Duan Ning so decisively at that time."
Xia Wennan looked at him: "Didn't you already know?"
Ming Siyan took a deep breath: "I'm just not worth it for you. Big Brother regards you as a tool to fight against Dad. He is completely using you."
Xia Wennan pretended not to understand: "Why did he fight against your father?"
"Because my father didn't like him since I was a child. Mingyan is my father's painstaking effort. If you hadn't chosen to marry him, my father would never have given Mingyan to him."
Xia Wennan said: "Then he is with me to get the position of general manager Mingyan from your father?"
Ming Siyan suddenly held Xia Wennan's other hand, and the two of them were facing each other. He stared straight at Xia Wennan with those dark and bright eyes: "Wennan, don't be sad."
"… I'm okay."
Ming Siyan said: "You can tell me if you are unhappy, no matter what happens to you and my elder brother, it will not change the relationship between us."
Xia Wennan was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you."
There were footsteps upstairs.
Xia Wennan finally managed to get rid of Ming Siyan. Ming Siyan probably didn't want to meet Ming Luchuan, so he turned and walked to his room.
So Xia Wennan was left alone at the corner of the stairs. He stood there, waiting for Ming Luchuan to come down from the third floor.
Ming Luchuan's face was calmer than Xia Wennan imagined. He walked down the stairs, his footsteps sounded extraordinarily steady, he walked up to Xia Wennan step by step, and asked, "You were eavesdropping outside just now."
Xia Wennan said, "It's not me, it's Ming Siyan."
"You didn't go to the third floor to eavesdrop, how did you know that Ming Siyan was eavesdropping outside?"
Xia Wennan said straightforwardly: "I wanted to eavesdrop, but when I went to the third floor and saw that Ming Siyan had already eavesdropped there, I was embarrassed to go over there."
Ming Luchuan looked at him for a while, walked around him without saying a word, and walked towards the bedroom.
Xia Wennan followed closely behind Ming Luchuan, and asked, "You thought I was eavesdropping, so you deliberately said nice things for me to listen to, didn't you?"
"Did I say something nice?"
Xia Wennan thought he couldn't take the bait: "I didn't eavesdrop, how do I know what nice things you said?"
Ming Luchuan said: "That's right, I didn't say anything nice. Where did I come from so I didn't mean it?"
They had already reached the door of the room. Ming Luchuan opened the door and walked in first.
Xia Wennan stopped at the door and asked, "We won't be going back tonight."
Ming Luchuan said: "Dad said that there are some things that need to be considered, and a decision will be made tomorrow morning."
Xia Wennan walked in, said: "I don't want to spend the night here", walked to the bed, and lay down lazily.
Ming Luchuan seemed to have received some work news, standing by the bed and looking down at his mobile phone.
Xia Wennan's mind was full of Ming Luchuan's words just now. At that time, he felt his heart beating wildly through a door. Now that Ming Luchuan was in front of him, the more he stared at Ming Luchuan, the faster his heart beat.
He wanted to confirm to Ming Luchuan again those words in Minqin's study, and ask Ming Luchuan what he was thinking, but he only denied that he was eavesdropping outside the last second, and he couldn't slap himself in the face the next second, so he just I can tickle Ming Luchuan.
He lightly kicked Ming Luchuan's leg with his foot.
Ming Luchuan was still staring at the phone, his throat trembled slightly: "Huh?"
Xia Wennan said, "Why did you marry me?"
Ming Luchuan finally glanced at him, but did not answer the question.
Xia Wennan then said: "Your brother said that you are using me to fight against your father."
"Really?" Ming Luchuan said expressionlessly.
Xia Wennan said, "But I don't think so."
Ming Luchuan put the phone on the bedside table, and began to unbutton the collar of his shirt: "Then what do you think?"
Xia Wennan propped his hands on both sides of his body, sat up, his legs were still stretched forward, and his toes lightly rubbed against Ming Luchuan's legs, he smiled and said: "Of course I love me to death, I can't do without me. "
Ming Luchuan looked at him condescendingly, his eyelashes were drooping, and there seemed to be an indistinct smile in his eyes, and he said in a cold tone: "Really?"
Xia Wennan withdrew his feet, sat cross-legged, with his arms folded in front of his chest, looked up at Ming Luchuan, smiled slightly and said, "Let's analyze it. You see, Mingqin was not good to you since he was a child. He only loved you. You two younger brothers, you and your younger brother obviously don’t have a good relationship. Later you liked Duan Ning, but Duan Ning didn’t accept you. You are the kind of person who needs love but is afraid of being hurt. Once Duan Ning rejected you, you didn’t hesitate I just gave up on this relationship. Then I appeared at this time. As Mingyan’s chief perfumer, the father of pheromone perfume, and a top talent in the perfume industry, such an outstanding young man likes you and proposes to you , you immediately fell into it, unable to extricate yourself. Right?"
The smile in Ming Luchuan's eyes gradually disappeared. He saw Xia Wennan's expression became more focused, and when he heard this, he asked coldly again: "Really?"
Xia Wennan raised his head, his shoulders and neck were fair and slender, he seemed to be recalling: "You said that unrequited feelings are not worth paying for, you can't bear a rejection from Duan Ning, but you have been waiting for me since I lost my memory for so long I have reached the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and you are not willing to give up on me, so I am different from Duan Ning, right?"
Ming Luchuan didn't answer.
Xia Wennan was absolutely convinced that his words hit Ming Luchuan's heart, he patted his chest, sat cross-legged on the bed and spread his arms, saying, "Come on, I'll give you whatever you want."
Ming Luchuan looked at him.
Xia Wennan smiled at him.
Ming Luchuan asked: "What is this?" His voice was low, but a little unsteady.
Xia Wennan replied, "Love hug."
