Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next morning, in B City, Z Nation, in the wealthy villa area of Yuhu Wan.
Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Bei, who had woken up early again, and the smile in her eyes couldn’t be hidden. She sat at the dining table and waved at her youngest son, indicating for Yan Bei to join them for breakfast.
Yan Xi put down the cup in his hand and looked over too. After seeing the music score in Yan Bei’s hand clearly, he chuckled and asked, “Why have you been working so hard recently? I think you’ve been practicing this music score for a few days! What kind of song is it that you’re working so hard on?”
As he spoke, he didn’t forget to peel eggs for Long Ting, who was sitting beside him.
Before Yan Bei, who was mentioned by his eldest brother, spoke, Mrs. Yan, who was sitting at the side, glanced at Yan Xi reproachfully first. “Seriously, it’s rare for your brother to be so concerned about the song. Can’t you praise and encourage him more? You’ve either been busy with the company recently, or bringing Long Ting out to play. How long has it been since you talked to Yan Bei? I didn’t wrong you, right?”
As Madam Yan spoke, she glanced at Long Ting gently, her eyes a bit dark.
Seeing that the topic was about her, Long Ting didn’t dare to answer Mrs. Yan. She could only reach out and take the egg Yan Xi handed over. She kicked Yan Xi gently, indicating that they should quickly change the topic.
Yan Xi came back to his senses and looked at his newly wedded wife without batting an eyelid. He explained, “Then it’ll be strange if Long Ting and I are newlyweds and aren’t stuck together, right? Yan Bei is already so old. Do you still want me, his brother, to watch him every day? When I was his age, I had already wooed Long Ting!”
Seeing that Yan Xi was getting more and more careless with his words, Long Ting looked up and glared at him. She said softly, “What nonsense are you talking about so early in the morning? You’re even getting more and more enthusiastic, right? Is what you said to Mom the same thing? Your brother has been preparing for the competition again recently. As his brother, shouldn’t you care about him?”
Yan Xi had no resistance to Long Ting. He immediately smiled and raised his hands in surrender. “Yes, yes, yes! I was wrong! I’ll shut up and stop talking, alright? I’ll care about my brother right now!”
He coaxed Long Ting and seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Yan Bei with some gossip. “I heard from my assistant that you went to a concert in the city with a girl yesterday. Who is this girl? Why have you changed your target again after not seeing you for a few days? Didn’t you still insist on marrying Su Lu’s sister before? Why did you fall in love with someone else so quickly? I really couldn’t tell. You’re quite capable!”
When his brother mentioned the girl at the music exhibition, Yan Bei stopped drinking his milk for a moment. At a moment when no one noticed, a glint quickly flashed through Yan Bei’s eyes. n--o(-V((e-.l-)b//1..n
He put down the cup calmly, but he didn’t turn around to look at Yan Xi. He just stared at the table and replied calmly, “Brother, don’t talk nonsense! That’s nothing. She’s just a new friend I met recently. Don’t compare her to Su Qing!
No one can compare to Su Qing here, and she’s no exception.”
“Hey! I didn’t expect our Yan Bei to be so loyal! No one can compare to Su Qing. Have you really fallen for her?” Hearing that, the gossipy tone in Yan Xi’s mind became even stronger.
In fact, Yan Bei, who was at this age, was just a child in his eyes. The reason why he liked to tease Yan Bei like this was that he didn’t really take it to heart that Yan Bei liked Su Qing. He felt that Yan Bei was just a child right now and was only infatuated with Su Qing for now. It wouldn’t last long!
Yan Xi thought that Yan Bei liked Su Qing like a child liked candy. It was just a natural liking and closeness to sweet things, and had nothing to do with romantic feelings.
If it weren’t for this thought, Yan Xi wouldn’t have been so relaxed and wouldn’t have cared about how much Yan Bei valued Su Qing.
He felt that it was fine for such children to like each other. After all, he and Su Qing’s brother, Su Lu, were extremely good friends.. Wouldn’t it be good for their two siblings to continue their friendship?
