Seven Hundred and Seven, Unforgettable (4)

"Night Owl, what's wrong?"

No matter how painful he felt, Nalan could only pretend that nothing happened, raised his hand and touched his face, "Is there something on my face?"

"...No." Ye Xiao came back to his senses and looked away. Those expressions just now, in an instant, have been replaced by the same indifference as before. He put the computer aside and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?"

"I want to go and pay my respects to Mr. Fei, so I wanted to ask you if you want to go with me."

"You wait for me outside while I change my clothes."

Ye Xiao stood up and walked quietly to the locker room.

Nalan looked at that figure almost obsessively. It wasn't until his figure disappeared into the dressing room that she took her husband and turned around lonely.

……………………

There is still quite a distance from the small building where they live to the main building where Ferens lives.

Two people walked side by side on the cobblestone path.

"Ye Xiao, is the content on your phone important? You haven't slept all night and your eyes are red." Nalan asked Ye Xiao seemingly unintentionally, suppressing his jealousy towards Bai Suye.

Ye Xiao did not answer, but suddenly said: "What do you think about our engagement?"

Nalan's heart beat rapidly when he suddenly mentioned this matter, and he turned to look at him with fascination. His eyes happened to look towards her, and the two of them met each other's eyes. His eyes were quiet and cold, but she blushed with embarrassment. The hands hanging by his sides were clenched a little because of nervousness, "I...I will obey Mr. Fei's arrangements."

Ye Xiao withdrew his gaze, "You don't have your own thinking ability?"

"I have no father or mother, and am an orphan. It was you who saved me. So...even if it wasn't arranged by Mr. Fei, I still want to...marry you..." The last three words, perhaps because of shyness, she said It was very soft, so soft that it was almost inaudible.

This is a confession from a girl.

However, when Ye Xiao listened, his face was always calm, without much fluctuation.

He only spoke slowly: "You know I saved you and kept you just because of your face. Without this face, your life and death would not have anything to do with me - —You should be very clear about this."

This is the truth.

But……

But it is the truth that hurts more than any sharp sword.

This man has always been so cruel.

She really wanted to know if his ruthlessness of not caring about other people's feelings was the same in front of that woman...

"Ye Xiao, I really love you..." Nalan ignored the embarrassment and suddenly turned around, hugged the man's waist, and buried his face tightly in his chest, "I admire you, worship you, and look up to you. .In my eyes, you are the sky above my head...I know, maybe I can't compare to the person in your heart, maybe I may not be able to reach you even if I try my best to stand on tiptoe, but...at least, I love you this way. A heart that loves you far more than she loves you...Since there is no possibility for you, Ye Xiao, why don't you give it a try with me?"

When she talked about the emotional part, a thin layer of mist formed in her eyes. It seems very sincere.

However, such sincerity cannot impress a man with a heart as stubborn as stone. Especially what she said...

Every word pierced his heart.

He lowered his head, looked deeply at the woman in his arms, and couldn't help but think, what if, at this moment, leaning in his arms, it was not her who said these words to him, but that woman...

Ha~ It’s never possible!

The biggest difference between Nalan and her is the difference in personality. She is always so restrained and rational, she doesn't know how to give in, let alone be willing to compromise.

It’s so rational that it makes people hate it! But unfortunately, it was that hateful woman who kept playing tricks on him!

People, sometimes become so mean that even they feel unreasonable!

"I said, why is it this time, and I haven't seen you two come to say good morning to me." At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded. Ferens was pushed by Cheng Ming and slowly came over from the garden.

He looked at the two people hugging each other with a smile.

Nalan blushed at the sight and quickly let go of Ye Xiao and retreated to him.

"Father."

"Mr. Fei."

The two people greeted each other before and after.

Ference said "hmm" and joked with Cheng Ming behind him, "Young people nowadays fall in love early in the morning. We two old men are really ignorant and disturbed them."

"You are the young master's father. The young master will definitely not care." Uncle Ming answered with a smile.

"Don't you care?" Ferens raised his hand and pointed at the expressionless Night Owl with a smile. "Look at his face. It's clearly written on his face, 'You guys are so annoying'."

"Mr. Fei, please stop laughing at us." Nalan became embarrassed, and subconsciously held Ye Xiao's arm, "Ye Xiao and I were about to say good morning to Mr. Fei!"

"Well. Good morning, I'm here to invite you today. Little girl, please ask Uncle Ming to take you back to the small building and lend me your fiancé for a while. Do you have any objection?"

The word ‘fiancé’ made Nalan blush. Nodding shyly, "I don't dare. Mr. Fei, I'll go back with Uncle Ming first."

"Go ahead."

Ference waved his hand, and after a while, only he and Night Owl were left.

"Push me and take a walk in the garden. I see that you are in a bad mood recently, so just take it as a break."

Night Owl pushed Ferens and said quietly: "I'm not in a bad mood."

"Okay, even if you're not in a bad mood. We're getting engaged soon, and I won't allow you to be in a bad mood."

"Father, you haven't formally asked me for my opinion on the engagement." Ye Xiao said in a strong tone.

"I have almost sent out the invitations. Tonight, I will ask Uncle Ming to send you the list to your study. You read it carefully and check for any omissions. If there are any omissions, please fill them in quickly." Fei Lance seemed to have not heard what he said and said to himself, "I know you are afraid of trouble, so you don't need to prepare anything for the engagement party. You just need to arrive on the day. By the way, you are not Do you still want to see your mother? At the engagement banquet, you will definitely be able to see her with your own eyes, treat it as an engagement gift from your adoptive father!"

Ye Xiao took a heavy breath and tightened his hand pushing the wheelchair.

He could clearly hear the meaning of these words.

Ferens played with the two emerald balls in his hands, as if he couldn't feel the emotions of someone behind him, and just continued to speak unhurriedly: "Ye Xiao, you always know my temper best. If anyone makes it difficult for me, I will make it even more difficult for him. Ten years ago, you didn't settle the debt with your little lover, that's because you were generous. Ten years later, if you really want to settle the debt that caused me to be hit hard, I will have to pay for it. Meet her in person. What do you think?"
