Chapter 165 The Gentle Man of the Romantic Young Master 21
The lobby is bustling with people, so it's definitely not a place to talk.
Lu Shixiao asked the waiter to lead the way and took Lu Huaiyuan upstairs.
After the door was closed, Gao Ye stood guard at the door.
Rong Jingyan was still an outsider, so it was not convenient for him to follow in, so he could only wait at the door.
inside the room.
Lu Shixiao stared at Lu Huaiyuan with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"Didn't you say you were in Cloud City? When did you come back?"
Lu Huaiyuan blinked and asked uncertainly, "Today?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Shixiao glared at him.
Lu Huaiyuan immediately changed his words and said, "Yesterday."
He finished speaking and as expected, he was glared at again.
Lu Huaiyuan changed his words again and said, "The day before yesterday."
Lu Shixiao slammed his hand on the table, his expression serious: "Lu Huaiyuan, do you want to be punished again?"
Lu Huaiyuan shrank his neck: "Okay, I was wrong."
Seeing that he was 'knowingly committing a crime' and 'refusing to repent', Lu Shixiao was furious.
"I ask, you answer." He glanced at Lu Huaiyuan and threatened, "If you lie again, Lu Xiaoyuan, you'd better watch out for me!"
Lu Huaiyuan nodded obediently: "Oh, okay."
Lu Shixiao asked: "When did you come back?"
"The day before yesterday." Lu Huaiyuan paused and emphasized, "This time it's true. I'm not lying."
Lu Shixiao glanced at him, but didn't say whether he believed it or not. He just asked again, "Why don't you go home?"
Lu Huaiyuan: "I've been out for a long time, you must have missed me."
"The New Year is almost here, so I thought I'd sneak back and give you guys a surprise." He said, curling his lips: "Who knew you'd find out?"
Lu Shixiao looked him up and down and couldn't help but be skeptical of what he said.
surprise?
Considering his younger brother's character, it's good enough that he wasn't frightened!
There can be a spooky surprise!
Thinking of this, Lu Shixiao glared at Lu Huaiyuan again.
"You are so shameless. Who misses you? Stop flattering yourself."
Lu Huaiyuan said calmly: "Oh."
"Since you don't want me, I'm leaving."
As he spoke, he made a gesture to open the door and leave.
Lu Shixiao got anxious and raised his voice a few notches: "Lu Huaiyuan, get back here!"
The soundproofing of the room was not very good, and the two people standing at the door also heard what he said.
Gao Ye lowered his eyes and looked straight ahead, seemingly not caring about the situation in the room.
Upon hearing this, Rong Jingyan couldn't help but feel a little worried about Lu Huaiyuan.
But with his current status, he has no right to get involved in these matters.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but clench the flesh in his mouth.
Even if he tasted a hint of rust, he never gave in.
Rong Jingyan seemed calm, but his slightly clenched fingers betrayed his uneasiness.
His expression remained unchanged, but he allowed the emotions in his heart to continue to spread.
-----------------
inside the house.
Hearing Lu Shixiao's words, Lu Huaiyuan's lips curled up into a triumphant smile.
Without delay, he quickly put away the smile on his face, turned around and walked obediently to Lu Shixiao.
Lu Huaiyuan's eyes wandered, and he looked a little smug: "Don't you miss me? Why are you calling me?"
Lu Shixiao stood up, raised his hand and gave him a slap on the face: "Lu Xiaoyuan, you are really getting bolder and bolder. Now you dare to challenge me, right?"
Lu Huaiyuan reached out and touched his forehead, dissatisfied: "Lu Shixiao, do you know that this hurts!"
"Besides, you were the one who did it first. I'm just copying you. What's wrong with that?"
As he spoke, he snorted, "Does this mean that the officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps?"
"Lu Shixiao, don't be too overbearing."
Lu Shixiao reached out and knocked him on the head again: "You are so disrespectful, call me brother."
Lu Huaiyuan glared at him and threatened: "Lu Shixiao, if you hit my head again, I won't go home for the New Year this year!"
Lu Shixiao: “You…!”
Seeing his hand raised again, Lu Huaiyuan quickly covered his forehead.
Lu Shixiao's hand fell again, and this time he rubbed his head hard.
"Lu Xiaoyuan, you've really grown in skill after this trip, haven't you?"
But he had to admit that he was indeed threatened by Lu Huaiyuan.
After all, although his old man said he disliked Lu Huaiyuan very much, he still treasured his youngest son in his heart.
If the old man knew that the other party didn’t go home for the New Year because of him, he would chase him for two blocks with his crutches!
Thinking of that scene, Lu Shixiao couldn't help but shook his head silently.
Can not afford to offend!
I can’t afford to offend!
Although Lu Shixiao was a coward in his heart, he refused to give in.
"You're not going home for the New Year? Just try running away! Believe it or not, I can find someone to bring you back no matter where you run to."
Hearing this, Lu Huaiyuan raised his chin and said, "If you dare to find someone to bring me back, I will go to my father and complain that you abused me."
Lu Shixiao: “…”
very good!
Complete defeat!
Lu Shixiao was furious and reached out to grab Lu Huaiyuan's ear.
Lu Huaiyuan exclaimed: "It hurts, it hurts!"
Lu Shixiao rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just pretend. This is not the time to threaten me so confidently!"
He was very measured in his actions, so it was impossible for him to really hurt Lu Huaiyuan.
But despite this, he still let go.
Lu Huaiyuan rubbed his ears and smiled awkwardly.
"Brother, what you said is not right. How can that be called a threat? That's called making reasonable use of one's own advantages."
Lu Shixiao glared at him, speechless.
Seeing this, Lu Huaiyuan smiled at him and looked particularly well-behaved.
Lu Shixiao sighed and sat back down resignedly.
Lu Huaiyuan very attentively poured him a cup of tea: "Brother, have some tea."
Lu Shixiao raised his eyes, glanced at him, and reached out to take the teacup.
He drank a sip of tea, calmed down, and asked, "You've been back for so long, why don't you go home? Where do you live now?"
Lu Huaiyuan sat down at the table and explained, "I went to Yuncheng with Mr. Rong before, and after returning this time, I am temporarily staying at his house."
He had previously asked Xiao Qi to forge credentials for his travel to and from Yuncheng, so now that he said this, he was naturally not afraid that the other party would check.
Hearing his words, Lu Shixiao nodded, but did not continue to dwell on this issue.
But when he glanced at Lu Huaiyuan, his expression couldn't help but look a little suspicious.
"Don't you always dislike those flowery things? When did you become so close to Mr. Rong?"
Lu Huaiyuan's eyes turned slightly, and then he said, "I don't like those obscure and difficult to understand words."
He smiled as he spoke, then changed the subject: "But the articles written by Mr. Rong are different from those people!"
Lu Huaiyuan held his chin with one hand. His eyes were still bright: "Brother, let me tell you, he..."
"stop!"
Lu Shixiao spoke quickly and interrupted him before he could start his long speech.
He was very familiar with Lu Huaiyuan's current expression.
Whenever Lu Xiangyi talked to him about Rong Jingyan before, she would show the same expression.
Then, for the next half hour or even an hour, he could hear the other party telling a lot of stories about Rong Jingyan without stopping.
And those words of praise that have never been repeated.
Lu Shixiao didn't want to say that he could now recite some of the things the other party said by heart.
So, he really didn't want to hear it again from Lu Huaiyuan's mouth.
Lu Huaiyuan had no idea what was going on in his mind, he just looked up and gave him a dissatisfied look.
"If you don't want to hear it, forget it. I don't want to tell you anymore!"
Lu Shixiao shook his head helplessly, but his tone was very doting: "You!"
Lu Huaiyuan shrugged, looking very casual.
Seeing this, Lu Shixiao lowered his eyes slightly, and a hint of deep meaning appeared in his eyes.
As for Lu Xiangyi, she has always been fond of talented people, so it is understandable that she admires Rong Jingyan.
But it is surprising that Lu Huaiyuan, a young master who has never liked reading, would have a good impression of someone who teaches others to read.
I have to say that he is really curious now. What kind of charm does Rong Jingyan have that can make their little bully change his personality?
The thoughts flashed through his mind, and Lu Shixiao looked up at Lu Huaiyuan again.
"Since you're already back, go home early. The situation is so chaotic right now, it's better not to run around too much."
He reached out and rubbed Lu Huaiyuan's head, his tone inevitably softening: "New Year's Day is coming soon, Dad and Xiangyi miss you very much, go home first."
"As for the rest, it's not that important."
"Oh." Lu Huaiyuan nodded, but said, "Let's talk about it in two days."
Lu Shixiao glared at him and said, "Lu Xiaoyuan, don't force me to find someone to bring you back!"
Lu Huaiyuan: "Brother, don't be so serious! I said I would go home, and I will definitely go home, don't worry."
He didn't lie when he said this.
After all, he will come back to this place.
But as to how, when and with whom to return, that is not certain.
Hearing him say this, Lu Shixiao glanced at him and obviously didn't believe what he said.
However, he knew that Lu Huaiyuan was an adult and should be sensible in what he did, so he didn't say anything more.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Huaiyuan could naturally see his attitude, and the smile on his lips deepened a little.
Lu Shixiao sighed and then stood up: "Forget it, you know these things in your heart, I won't say more."
As he spoke, he patted Lu Huaiyuan on the shoulder and warned him, "The current situation is turbulent. You are alone outside, so you must pay more attention to your safety. Do you understand?"
Lu Huaiyuan nodded: "I understand, big brother, don't worry."
Lu Shixiao withdrew his hand and rolled his eyes at him: "Go home quickly if you have nothing to do. Don't wander around outside all the time, or you might get cheated without knowing it."
He finally sighed, "Really? Even though he's grown up, he still makes me worry!"
Lu Huaiyuan: “…”
really!
There is still some family affection!
But not much!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Shixiao turned to look at him: "Did you hear what I said?"
Lu Huaiyuan: "Okay, I understand. I won't forget it. Don't worry, big brother."
"Rest assured? I wish you could really reassure me."
Lu Shixiao said as he walked towards the door: "There's nothing else to say, so I'll leave first. Don't forget to go home early."
Lu Huaiyuan was stunned and was about to say something when he saw the other party turned around and prepared to leave.
Lu Shixiao walked to the door, but his hand that was about to open it couldn't help but pause.
Although, it seems like he is here to eat!
go?
Take a hammer!
Is it him who should leave?
Lu Shixiao gritted his teeth. He was really mad at Lu Huaiyuan!
Lu Huaiyuan suppressed the smile on his face, stood up and walked to his side.
He patted Lu Shixiao's shoulder and said earnestly, "Brother, you should have dinner first."
"Look, this is hallucination caused by hunger."
He actually wanted to say "I'm so hungry that I'm stupid", but he was afraid that if he said that, Lu Shixiao would really hit him!
However, Lu Shixiao didn't feel comfortable after hearing what he said.
He stretched out his hand to hit Lu Huaiyuan on the head, but he dodged it by moving sideways.
Lu Huaiyuan: "Brother, you always use this trick. Can't you come up with something new?"
Lu Shixiao was speechless. He raised his foot to kick him, but he saw the other party open the door and ran out.
Seeing Lu Huaiyuan coming out, Rong Jingyan hurried to his side.
"Ayuan."
Although it was just a simple name, Lu Huaiyuan could see the worry in his eyes.
He smiled at Rong Jingyan, then turned to look at Gao Ye who was standing beside him and said, "Brother Gao Ye, please ask the waiter to serve the food. My brother is anxious to eat dinner."
Gao Ye: “…”
For some reason, after hearing this, he always felt that the young master was going to be scolded again.
After Lu Huaiyuan finished speaking, without waiting for his reaction, he quickly pulled Rong Jingyan away.
The next second, a voice mixed with anger came from behind Gao Ye.
"Lu Huaiyuan!"
Gao Ye turned around when he heard the voice and saw Lu Shixiao standing at the door.
But the two people outside the door had already walked away.
Lu Shixiao paused, then restrained his expression and returned to his cold, unapproachable look.
Looking at the person in front of him, Gao Ye couldn't help but think of the outside world's evaluation of him.
He is ruthless, cold-blooded, and has a gloomy and unstable temperament.
Lu Shixiao has reached his current position step by step, and he is indeed capable and resourceful.
He wrapped himself tightly in an outward appearance of indifference.
Perhaps only in front of his family can he show his other side.
Gao Ye was thinking this when he heard Lu Shixiao say, "Come in."
After he finished speaking, he sat back at the table and didn't say anything else.
Gao Ye was already used to him being like this and didn't say much.
-----------------
On the other side, Lu Huaiyuan took Rong Jingyan out of the hotel and let him go.
Rong Jingyan felt the warmth disappearing from his arm, and felt inexplicably lost.
His expression remained unchanged. He simply asked, "Ah Yuan, isn't it a bad idea for us to leave like this? Will Mr. Lu be angry?"
Lu Huaiyuan smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, sir. My brother won't care about these trivial matters."
Rong Jingyan hesitated: "But..."
Lu Huaiyuan patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, I've already told him, he won't be angry."
Rong Jingyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"okay, I get it."
He actually wanted to ask Lu Huaiyuan what they had agreed on.
But the words went around in his mouth for a few times and in the end he didn't say them.
Lu Huaiyuan didn't know what he was thinking. He just withdrew his hand and asked, "Sir, do you want to continue shopping?"
Rong Jingyan shook his head: "I've been walking around all afternoon and I feel a little tired."
He paused, then said, "It's rare for me to go out, though. Is there anything else Yuan wants to eat or buy?"
Lu Huaiyuan's expression changed slightly, and he said, "There's nothing I want to buy. Why don't we go home first?"
Hearing the word "go home", the smile on Rong Jingyan's face couldn't help but become more genuine.
"it is good."
Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyes to look at him, and the two of them looked at each other, and everything was understood without words.
