"So are they on good terms?"
"We just go out like a couple every Sunday to visit an exhibition, watch a movie, and have a meal. In fact, we rarely go out together. Haven't you noticed? My second brother always comes to our gatherings by himself. He is willing to stay with us. He said that he and Su Huijin have nothing to talk about. Su Huijin is the one who talks all the time."
Su Yi nodded and thought for a moment, "So, they don't really have any feelings for each other?"
"Yeah." Mu Ziyin said, and suddenly sighed, "I'm almost at the age where I'm forced to get married. Oh, then it will be my turn to suffer."
"You won't." Su Yi said affirmatively.
"Why not?"
"As long as you spread the news of your impotence, I guess no one will force you to do it."
"..." Mu Ziyin's face darkened, "Get away from me, I don't want to talk to you."
"There's nothing you can say, because we're going home." Su Yi said, then he took Lan Fuchu's hand and left.
"Hey!" Mu Ziyin shouted behind him, "We haven't even had dinner yet because we came to save you, and you asked us to go home without even treating us to a midnight snack. Isn't this unethical..."
Song Yanan said, "Forget it, youngest brother, they've left, I'll treat you to a midnight snack."
Mu Ziyin lost his voice and said, "But I still have a lot to say to Sister Su Yi."
"Let's talk about it next time. They have a lot to talk about today. Let's not disturb them."
Mu Ziyin pouted, "Everyone has a girlfriend, but I'm the only one without one."
"If you really want one, go find one."
"Forget it, I'm impotent..."
Song Yanan touched his head and said, "It will get better one day. Don't worry too much, okay?"
"Hey, brother, why is that woman so heartless to me? She just left without saying a word..."
Song Yanan said gently, "At that time, your relationship was not equal to begin with. You bought her with your money, and her kindness to you was just a show. It was natural. Later, when you got the money and it was enough, she left of course."
"In that case, why doesn't she lie to me all her life? I can give her as much money as she wants, as long as she stays with me."
Song Yanan looked into the distance, "Maybe I have a guilty conscience, or maybe I really don't love you."
Mu Ziyin was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and stopped talking.

Su Yi and Lan Fuchu got in the car. Lan Fuchu turned up the air-conditioning temperature in the car, fearing that she would be cold. He also took out a blanket from the trunk and covered Su Yi with it.
Su Yi looked at the familiar brand on the blanket and couldn't help but smile.
"What are you laughing at?" Lan Fuchu glanced at Su Yi who was sitting in the passenger seat. When he thought about how she had been caught here for several hours, he felt a little scared.
"Didn't I always complain to you when we were in school that the girls' dormitory was like a morgue in the winter?"
"Then?"
Su Yi pouted, then smiled and said, "Later you gave me a warm blanket, which was similar to this one, do you remember?"
"Remember." When she received it, she was so happy that she seemed to fly and danced with joy. Later, Lan Fuchu always used this brand of warm blanket.
Su Yi raised her long eyelashes and said, "What I want to tell you is that I threw away that warm blanket."
"..." Lan Fuchu looked indifferent, but his brows were already knitted silently, "Why are you throwing it away? Don't you like it?"
"No, I really liked it, but you rejected me at that time. When I saw the warm blanket, I felt like you were mocking me. I felt so uncomfortable, so I threw the blanket you gave me in anger."
"You were rejected by me at that time... Are you sad?"
"Yeah." She nodded heavily, "I feel really bad, I even want to sleep forever."
Lan Fuchu turned his head and looked at her quietly, but the emotion in his eyes seemed different, no longer so calm. He said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't understand your true feelings at the time. I thought..."
"You thought I was kidding you?"
Lan Fuchu hummed softly.
"It doesn't matter. Who told me that I have a carefree personality? No one dares to believe everything I say." Su Yi looked at him and smiled. After thinking for a while, she took the initiative to reach out and hold his arm. "But it's good this way. After a few years of separation, we can be more sure that our friendship has never wavered. Otherwise, we would have fallen in love with someone else in the years without expectations."
Lan Fuchu smiled, "Yeah."
"And after a few years, we have both grown to a more mature age. It is better to meet each other at an age suitable for marriage than to burn each other at a young age, don't you think?"
"Um."
Fortunately, it was him who stayed with her in the end.
*
The car drove along and passed a hot spring resort hotel located halfway up the mountain. Su Yi suddenly said, "Baby, let's stay out tonight."
Lan Fuchu looked at the luxurious hotel hidden in the night mist and said, "Do you want to live here?"
"Um."
After hearing Su Yi's answer, Lan Fuchu turned the car around and drove towards the hot spring resort hotel halfway up the mountain.
"You wait here, I'll go in and ask if there are any vacancies."
"Okay." Su Yi responded, hugged the warm blanket given by Lan Fuchu, and sat in the car waiting for him.
Watching Lan Fuchu walk into the hotel, Su Yi couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. Having nothing to do while waiting for someone, Su Yi wanted to find his cell phone, but after searching behind him and in his bag, he couldn't find it.
Huh? Where's my phone
Su Yi was puzzled and rummaged around in the car. Finally, he found a beautifully wrapped gift box next to where Lan Fuchu was sitting.
Su Yi took it curiously. She knew without thinking that it was a gift for her. She quickly opened the package and looked at the gift inside. Her expression was instantly dull.
A dazzling pink diamond necklace appeared before my eyes.
Su Yi stared at the necklace without blinking, her eyes calm, but in her heart, she had already been filled with ecstasy.
Could this gift be the one I brought to England to please her
so…
Xiao Daibi was not so naive as to wait for death. He even bought a gift that the girl couldn't resist and came to England to pick her up.
Well, he treats me well with all his heart.
As soon as Su Yi was happy, her true nature was exposed. She wanted to play a prank on him, so she took the pink diamond necklace out of the gift box, then put the gift box back, carefully put the things in their original packaging, and waited to see his embarrassing scene.
Thinking of the expression he might have later, Su Yi couldn't stop smiling.
A moment later, Lan Fuchu came back, opened the car door, and said indifferently but not coldly, "There is still a room. I have already checked in. Let's go in."
"Okay." Su Yi got out of the car obediently and covered himself with his warm blanket.
Lan Fuchu looked at her strangely, always feeling that there would be problems when she was being well behaved.
Su Yi asked: "Not leaving?"
"Come on, go in first and wait for me at the elevator. I need to get something."
"Okay." Su Yi didn't ask why at all, and just walked away with his long legs.
Although Lan Fuchu felt it was strange, he did not think much about it. He took the gift box from the car, hid it in a coat, and took it into the hotel.
The first hotel opened by Lanfu was the executive suite, which had several rooms.
After he arrived, he sat on the sofa for a while, as if he was thinking about how to give her the gift.
Seeing this, Su Yi immediately pretended to say, "I'll go take a shower first."
"Okay, you haven't had dinner yet, right? Do you want anything to eat? I'll order it for you."
"Whatever." Su Yi responded, took the white bathrobe and went into the bathroom.
When he came out, Lan Fuchu had already changed into a bathrobe and was sitting elegantly on the sofa. A few exquisite Western dishes were placed on the originally empty coffee table.
Seeing her come out, Lan Fuchu turned his head. The light was flowing, making his elegant temperament even more noble and dazzling.
"I don't know what you want to eat, so I ordered something you usually like."
Su Yi took a look at the dishes on the table, and they were indeed to her taste. Su Yi walked over and slowly sat down next to him. In the quiet room, there was only the sound of fabric rubbing against the sofa. Su Yi hesitated whether to ask him to take a shower. If she asked him to go, it seemed as if he was waiting for something, but if she didn't ask him to go, she would feel a little uncomfortable.
In the end, Lan Fuchu took the initiative to take a shower.
There was a sound of running water in the bathroom.
Su Yi held the plate of pasta, slowly rolled it up and put it into her mouth. At the end, she drank some mellow and sweet red wine. However, she did not eat too much. She deliberately left some food for Lan Fuchu and did not dare to eat too much.
Lan Fuchu took a quick shower and came out in a bathrobe in a few minutes. While drying his hair, he asked softly, "Why did you eat so little? I was scared last night and have no appetite."
"No, I wanted to save some for you."
"I'm not very hungry."
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry! You came to Shiyanling to see me at night, so you must not have eaten, right?"
"I drank some wine."
"Then what are you talking about? Come here and eat with us." To Lan Fuchu, one must be simple, rough and overbearing.
Lan Fuchu looked her up and down, pondered for a moment, and walked over.
The two of them sat on the sofa and ate for about twenty minutes. The food on the table was almost finished, and Lan Fuchu's short hair was almost dry. Su Yi stretched and lay on the sofa with a full look. He said with satisfaction: "The food here is not bad. It's really delicious."
Lan Fuchu smiled faintly, lifted the coat on the sofa, and took out the gift box inside.
Su Yi took a quick glance and thought: Here it comes!
