Fang Ying went to the balcony and took a broom to clean the broken glass on the floor.
Xia Ye sat on the sofa smoking a cigarette, and remained silent. Yang Youming sat diagonally across from him, the more swollen his face became.
Xia Xingcheng was horrified when he saw the hurt on Yang Youming's face, and turned back to look at Xia Ye in sadness and anger, only to find that his smoking hand was shaking slightly, and Xia Xingcheng couldn't say a lot of words.
The air in the living room was filled with the smell of cigarettes, and the atmosphere was dull and anxious.
Xia Ye suddenly said: "My brother is ten years younger than me. Although my family was not wealthy when I was young, my family grew up with him in our hands. He came out to film at a young age, and your entertainment industry has a complicated environment. We don't ask for it. He is very popular, and I hope he is happy and smooth."
"I also hope he is happy and smooth," Yang Youming said, frowning as he spoke, probably because of the injury on his face.
Xia Ye sneered and lowered his head to smoke again.
Fang Ying swept away all the broken glass, and Xia Xingcheng said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry about it, I'll call someone to clean it up."
"It's alright," Fang Ying stood up straight with the broom, "your brother has developed limbs and a simple mind, you know."
Xia Ye looked up at her, like she was angry but didn't react much.
Fang Ying hit him on the leg with a broom, "Xingcheng is twenty-five years old! He is not a child. If there is something you can't talk about, you will know that losing your temper will solve the problem?"
Xia Ye turned his head irritably.
Fang Ying let go of the broom, sat down beside Xia Ye, and asked Xia Xingcheng, "Are you busy with work recently?"
Xia Xingcheng replied, "There are no arrangements until the Chinese New Year."
Xia Ye yelled at him immediately: "Then you won't go home for the New Year?"
Fang Ying was taken aback and raised her hand to hit him: "Shut your ass!"
Xia Ye was bored again.
Xia Xingcheng said, "I want to come back after the New Year."
When Xia Ye's cigarette was finished, he snuffed out the cigarette butt and threw it away, folded his arms around his chest, and breathed heavily.
Yang Youming grabbed Xia Xingcheng's hand and said, "It's my fault."
Xia Xingcheng immediately turned to look at him, "You're right."
Yang Youming patted the back of his hand, "I know it's useless to say anything, anything to hurt, you can come at me if you have any dissatisfaction, there is only one thing I want to say, I am willing to give everything to Xingcheng, as long as He'll be happy."
Fang Ying was slightly stunned when she heard these words, as if touched, and said, "I watched your movie."
Xia Ye snorted coldly.
Fang Ying ignored him, but continued: "I cried after watching it, it's really a good movie."
Yang Youming said to her, "Thank you."
Fang Ying's thoughts were also a little confused. She fiddled with her hair, hesitating how to say it, and finally asked, "Did you just... when you were filming?" She asked vaguely.
But both Yang Youming and Xia Xingcheng understood.
Yang Youming answered her: "Yes." Although it wasn't at that time that they were together, it was indeed at that time that he was tempted.
Fang Ying thought silently that it was because of the drama, and she sighed secretly. On the one hand, she felt that they did nothing wrong, and on the other hand, she felt that Xia Xingcheng really shouldn't choose this path.
When she wanted to persuade, Xia Xingcheng spoke before her: "sister-in-law, what did you think when your family objected to you being with my brother?"
Fang Ying was stunned by the question.
Xia Xingcheng continued to ask, "Do you regret it?"
Of course, she has no regrets. Her family is wealthy and happy, her two children are well-behaved and lovely, and her husband is very good to her even though he is grumpy, otherwise she would not have been with him in the first place.
Before Fang Ying could answer, Xia Xingcheng continued to ask: "If my brother is still poor now, and he can't make a lot of money after working hard outside, do you regret it?"
Fang Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, I'm not qualified to speak, I don't advise you."
Xia Ye said, "I don't agree."
Xia Xingcheng glanced at him and was a little angry. He had the urge to quarrel with Xia Ye, but seeing Xia Ye's depressed expression, he suddenly couldn't bear to quarrel with him.
Everyone here loves him, and they stand in different angles and in different ways. The ultimate goal is to hope that he can be happy. He was reluctant to hurt Xia Ye to hurt Yang Youming, but he was also reluctant to hurt Xia Ye. He was the link between them. Only when he was calm and responsible enough would they believe that his choice was well thought out.
So Xia Xingcheng stood up and walked in front of Xia Ye, and said to him, "Brother, look at me."
Xia Ye ignored him.
Xia Xingcheng reached out to hold Xia Ye's face, forced him to look up at himself, and said, "I was wrong." After speaking, he knelt down in front of Xia Ye.
Xia Ye and Fang Ying jumped up at the same time to help Xia Xingcheng. Xia Ye said angrily, "Who told you to kneel? Who did you kneel for?"
Only Yang Youming moved subconsciously, but he still sat back on the sofa and his eyes fell on Xia Xingcheng.
Xia Xingcheng refused to get up, he said: "I grew up with your ass, you can give me anything you want, you want to take off all the stars in the sky for me, I rarely go back when I leave home for college, my parents. When you are old, it is you and your sister-in-law who are taking care of them. I do too little for the family. You say it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have you at home." Speaking of which, Xia Xingcheng was also a little emotional, he choked, "Why can't I? kneel to you?"
Xia Ye stared at him blankly.
Xia Xingcheng continued: "I knelt down on you today, and I will kneel for my parents next time I go back. Since you all think I was wrong, I can only apologize to you. I may have to go the wrong way."
Yang Youming looked at Xia Xingcheng without saying a word.
Xia Ye closed his eyes and shook his head, "I don't know, don't tell me, I don't agree." After speaking, he bypassed Xia Xingcheng, turned and walked towards the room.
Fang Ying quickly helped Xia Xingcheng up.
"Sister-in-law," Xia Xingcheng called to her.
Fang Ying said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him again." She glanced at Yang Youming and said to Xia Xingcheng, "I'll be honest, when I was young, I also thought that love was more important than anything else, and when I'm older, I'll have it. Boy, I just think my parents' opposition back then is understandable, I don't want you to regret it one day, think about it again."
Xia Xingcheng said, "I won't regret it."
Fang Ying raised her hand to touch his head, Xia Xingcheng was a long way taller than Fang Ying, but in Fang Ying's eyes, he still looked like a child, Fang Ying smiled and said, "Of course I hope you don't regret it. Sister-in-law. Not such a traditional person, age, gender, whether or not to have children, in my opinion, it’s not a big deal, but the path is yours to choose, no matter what the outcome will be in the future, you will have to bear the consequences yourself.”
Xia Xingcheng looked at her and said, "I understand."
Fang Ying smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You don't need to care too much about your brother's attitude. It doesn't matter whether he approves or not, but you have to think about how to tell your parents in the future."
Xia Xingcheng lowered his eyes. Compared with Xia Ye, he was indeed more afraid of facing his parents. But what about fear, they always have to face it, don't they have to live forever? He looked back at Yang Youming, nodded at Fang Ying, and asked, "Why didn't you come with your parents?"
Fang Ying said: "My parents and my uncle's family went to the south for Chinese New Year, and they said they would stay for a month before coming back. Your brother is worried that you insisted on coming to Beijing to see you, so I asked for leave in advance and brought Ding Ding Dong Dong with you. Arrived yesterday."
Xia Xingcheng quickly asked, "Where do you live?"
Fang Ying replied, "Stay in a hotel."
Xia Xingcheng said, "What hotel do you stay in, stay with me!"
Fang Ying glanced at the inner room and asked him in a low voice, "You don't live here today?"
Xia Xingcheng nodded, "I want to go home with Brother Ming."
Fang Ying sighed, "I see, you go back first, and I'll ask your brother later."
Xia Xingcheng also looked inside and saw Dong Dong open the door a crack, trying to stick out his head to look outside.
Fang Ying hooked her fingers on Dong Dong, "Dong Dong come."
Dong Dong immediately pushed the door open again and ran out on short legs. He ran behind Fang Ying and hugged her legs, shyly looking at Xia Xingcheng and then Yang Youming.
Fang Ying lowered her head and asked him, "Don't remember Second Uncle and Uncle Yang?"
Dong Dong nodded, "Remember."
Fang Ying reached out and grabbed him to the front, "Are you calling someone?"
Dong Dong looked at Xia Xingcheng and shouted: "Second uncle." But instead of looking at Yang Youming, he still stared at Xia Xingcheng and shouted, "Uncle Yang."
Yang Youming smiled, and he said, "Uncle Yang is here."
Dong Dong glanced at him secretly, rolled his eyes, turned back to look at him, and said, "Has Uncle Yang been beaten?"
Fang Ying stroked his hair, "It's all your father's bad temper, go and give Uncle Yang a blow."
Dong Dong looked up at Fang Ying and then at Yang Youming, his expression became serious, he walked over nervously, crawled on the sofa and knelt on the sofa, leaned close to Yang Youming's face and blew lightly, "It doesn't hurt."
Yang Youming smiled and patted his head, "Dong Dong is really powerful, it doesn't hurt when you blow it."
Dong Dong turned around and sat down on the sofa next to Yang Youming, smiling embarrassedly.
Later, until Xia Xingcheng and the others left, Xia Ye still didn't come out to say a word to them.
On the way back, Xia Xingcheng drove and wanted to take Yang Youming to the hospital first.
With sunglasses on his face, Yang Youming said, "Don't go to the hospital for this kind of thing. If someone sees it, it will cause trouble."
When they returned home, Xia Xingcheng put some disinfectant on his face, which looked even more swollen than in the morning.
That night, Xia Xingcheng came out of the shower and saw Yang Youming sitting on the floor with his back against the bed.
He walked over lightly, and when he was about to reach Yang Youming, he knelt on the floor and crawled over, and sat down next to the bed when he approached him.
Yang Youming didn't speak. With the injury on his face, he looked a little low.
Xia Xingcheng rested his head on his shoulder, "What's wrong?"
Yang Youming said softly: "Actually, your brother is right, I'm shameless."
Xia Xingcheng suddenly raised his head, "What nonsense!"
Yang Youming said, "You're still young, how many people and things you've been in contact with, you know—"
"Don't say it," Xia Xingcheng raised his hand to cover his mouth, with a gloomy face, "You say I'm angry again."
Yang Youming's hand touched the wound, and he frowned in pain. He stretched out his hand to hold Xia Xingcheng's wrist and pulled it away, "Facing the anger of your family, I am the most powerless. I see you kneel down for your brother, but I do everything. No, I'm sorry, Xingcheng." After Yang Youming said these words, he wrapped his arms around Xia Xingcheng's waist, and he used a lot of strength in his arms to hold Xia Xingcheng firmly in his arms.
Xia Xingcheng also hugged him, "I'm not wronged, my brother eats softly but not hardy. As soon as I kneel, his heart softens. It's better than quarreling and starting a fight. They are my family, I will handle it, you just need to keep Just stay with me and don't leave me."
Yang Youming didn't speak, just hugged him tighter and tighter.
After a while, Xia Xingcheng backed away a little, looked at his face and said, "You are not shameless either, your face is so beautiful, who would be willing not to."
Yang Youming smiled slightly.
Xia Xingcheng raised his hand and pressed his chest, "I'm done, I think you look handsome like this, I'm helpless." After he finished speaking, he leaned in to kiss Yang Youming's lips.
Yang Youming opened his mouth to accept him, and after a brief kiss, he stepped back.
Xia Xingcheng was reluctant, chasing after him.
Yang Youming held Xia Xingcheng's face and said, "Xingcheng, Xingcheng!"
Xia Xingcheng's lips and eyes were red and wet, looking at him incomprehensibly.
Yang Youming said, "My face will hurt."
Xia Xingcheng asked him, "Kissing hurts?"
Yang Youming nodded, "It hurts to speak."
Xia Xingcheng hugged him and buried his head on his shoulders, "It's all Xia Ye's fault. Let's see how I deal with him in the future. How dare I hit you in the face! Don't you know how valuable your face is?"
Yang Youming smiled and asked, "How much is it worth?"
"The treasure of human beings is good!"
