Chapter 3: Like a child

"Brother?"

Ye Chuxin saw that he was standing there but came to help, and shouted to Lu Mian with doubts.

At this time, Lu Mian stabilized his mind.

What's wrong with herself? She's a six-year-old girl!

Althoughβ€”

Lu Mian glanced at Ye Chuxin again.

Except for the brain, the place where you should grow up is the same as a normal person.

Cough.

An abnormal flush suddenly flashed across his face.

He stepped forward and reached out and gently pulled the tangled button on her body.

The shirt on his arm was placed on the shelf, and he walked out without looking back.

"Xin'er, put the clothes there, you can wash them yourself. Walking outside the door and bringing the door forward, Lu Mian added: "Before taking a bath next time, remember to close the door." ”

After going out, Lu Mian took a deep breath before suppressing the inexplicable agitation in his heart a little.

went downstairs to the living room and instructed the maid to make himself a cup of coffee, the mellow and bitter taste lingered on the taste buds, and after a while, Lu Mian's mood calmed down.

"Young master, did that young lady rest just now? I asked the kitchen to prepare sweet soup, do you want to invite her down to eat some?"

The housekeeper Qingbo's face was full of smiles that could not be concealed, and he thought to himself, that young lady is so thin, she must make up for it!

Glancing at the cup of sweet soup on the table, Lu Mian just wanted to nod, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the little head that was quietly exposed at the corner of the stairs.

"Xin'er?"

When Qing Bo just wanted to follow Lu Mian's gaze, he was so frightened by Lu Mian's next hurried cry that he didn't dare to continue to turn his head.

"Go back to your room and wait for me first!"

And by his slightly loud voice, Ye Chuxin, who was standing there, was stunned at first, and then his beautiful apricot eyes were so aggrieved that they seemed to be dripping water in the next second.

This appearance made Lu Mian realize that his tone might be a little bad, so he lowered his voice in an instant.

"Xin'er, I'm not scolding you......"

At this moment, even Lu Mian himself didn't know why he was explaining this sentence.

stood up and said to Uncle Qing: "Uncle Qing, you turn around in five minutes." ”

After speaking, Lu Mian walked quickly to Ye Chuxin, who walked down from the turn of the stairs, wearing only a men's shirt that was not enough to cover the slender and straight legs.

She had just finished taking a shower, her hair was not dried, and drops of water ran down her cheeks and fell on her shoulders.

And looking down, the first button of the shirt was not buttoned, and the second button was also buttoned to the third buttonhole, the collar of the shirt was open, and the girl's beautiful collarbone was exposed, revealing a piece of snow-white skin, and the pair of jade-white feet still forgot to put on shoes.

Seeing her like this, Lu Mian was helpless, sighed lightly, and bent down to pick her up.

Before going upstairs, he didn't forget to say to Uncle Qing, who kept that standing posture and didn't dare to move: "Uncle Qing, when you let the servants come over tomorrow, you can go back to the old mansion by the way and bring Aunt Wang with you." ”

"Okay young master. ”

Qingbo, who couldn't see the situation, was relieved when he heard this.

Fortunately, the young master is not angry with the young lady.

carried Ye Chuxin back to the room and let her sit on the sofa, Lu Mian took a hair dryer and carefully blew her wet hair.

This is bringing back a patient, this is clearly bringing back a daughter!

The corners of Lu Mian's mouth raised the first wry smile in more than twenty years.

I thought to myself, but the movement of my hand was not slow, and the fingers with distinct fingers parted the girl's hair strands and then dried them.

There was a fragrance on the girl's body, and the soft touch of the hair wrapped around her fingertips also made Lu Mian's heartbeat miss the beat for a moment.

Ye Chuxin nestled on the sofa, obediently letting Lu Mian's fingers shuttle over his head like a doll.

Until the warm wind stops.

The girl's long black hair was scattered on her shoulders, and she raised her head and pulled the broken hair that covered her eyes in front of her forehead behind her ears, and then rubbed her stomach with her hands, looking aggrieved.

The voice, not much louder than a cat's meow, sounded in Lu Mian's ears.

"Brother, my heart is hungry. ”

At this time, he suddenly remembered that Ye Chuxin didn't seem to have a drop in the afternoon.

"Let's go, go down and eat. ”

However, Lu Mian saw her clothes that couldn't cover her legs, so she immediately changed her words: "Forget it, you wait for me in the room, and I'll bring you food." ”

walked downstairs, picked up the sweet soup on the table, and then turned his head and instructed the housekeeper who was still guarding the side: "Uncle Qing, you go to the kitchen and ask someone to make a bowl of noodles, and when the meeting is ready, it will be sent to the upstairs guest room." ”

When he returned upstairs again and pushed open the hidden door, what he saw was Ye Chuxin wrapping his curled legs around his hands, his chin resting on his knees, and staring at the door blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Come, drink the soup first. ”

Seeing Lu Mian come in, Ye Chuxin's originally distracted eyes shone like stars in an instant, grinning at him, and a shallow dimple appeared on his cheek.

This scene gently scratched Lu Mian's heart like a feather.

The soup cup was placed on the table, and the silver spoon was handed to Ye Chuxin.

I saw her take small sips of sweet soup into her mouth.

Some hurried movements showed that Ye Chuxin was really hungry, but he didn't gobble it up as he thought, which made Lu Mian on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised.

As soon as his mind moved, Lu Mian asked as if inadvertently: "Xin'er, besides your father, do you have any other family members or relatives?"

The information found by Qi Yan at the beginning showed that she had lived with her father Ye Dayong since she was a child, but ......

Except for Ye Dayong, it was not found that their father and daughter had any close contact with other people.

Hearing his words, the movements in Ye Chuxin's hand suddenly stopped, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

"No, don't hit me!"

Ye Chuxin put down the spoon suddenly, her eyes were full of nervousness, she grabbed the corner of her clothes with her hand and stirred it tightly.

Seeing her like this, Lu Mian realized that he had asked something he shouldn't have asked.

Facing Ye Chuxin, who was nervous, Lu Mian was suddenly a little at a loss.

He won't!

Coaxing a child?

Lu Mian frowned.

I think back to when I was very young, I remember what my mother looked like.

Lu Mian stretched out his hand, gently hugged the girl in his arms, and stroked her back for a while.

Ye Chuxin, who was like a frightened bird, gradually calmed down under this silent comfort.

Buckle –

At this moment, the servant knocked on the door.

Lu Mian wanted to get up, but he was grabbed tightly by the person in his arms.

"Come in. ”

There was no way, he had to continue to hold her.

When the maid walked in with a fragrant face, she saw the picture of Mr. Lu, who had never even seen a lot of expression, holding Ye Chuxin, and she was so shocked that her hands shook and she almost dropped the bowl to the ground.

Noticing the servant's surprise, Lu Mian's originally soft expression turned cold for a moment, and he said to the servant: "Put the bowl down and go out." ”

The servant was taken aback, and hurriedly put the plate away, and closed the door.
