In fact, he wanted to say that if he had to be invisible, he wanted that person to be him, in that case, he could have secretly peeked at her from a distance before, but she didn't give him this opportunity. The umbrella fell to the ground, and he stiffened himself for a while before picking up the umbrella and leaving after the cold rain sobered him up.

Since the matter has been decided, it is probably a ridiculous story to say anything about retention.

Entering the door of the jade shop, Shang Muli's eyes fell a crystal clear tear without warning, and the clerk was startled when he saw it, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Miss Zhou, why are you crying?"

She froze there, wiped away the tears with her hands, shook her head with a forced smile, and explained, "It's okay, it's rain outside." ”

Obviously seeing that it was flowing out of the corner of her eye, Miss Zhou actually said that it was rain, but everyone didn't believe it but didn't refute it.

In the afternoon, someone sent a letter, which was an invitation from Qingliu's brother, inviting her to sit in the café. Shang Muli didn't have anything to do in the afternoon, so he just agreed.

After eating at home and cleaning up things, she looked at the painting she brought back from Xiao Jun in the nursing home and smiled with relief, no matter what happened, she had to stand strong, anyway, she would always have a younger brother behind her, supported by a spiritual force.

In the Western-style café, Shang Muli was wearing a Chinese-style mid-length skirt, and the top was in the style of butterfly buckle Heze sleeves, which looked fresh, and as soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Xu Qingliu waving like himself. Shang Muli walked over slowly, in fact, she was quite afraid to see Brother Qingliu, because he had always been his elder, this time Shang Mu Sijue and her affairs, it is estimated that he also knew about it, and today he suddenly asked her to drink coffee, Shang Muli was worried, he did not come to invite her to drink coffee, but to class, after all, he and his brother are such good friends.

"Did you come early, Brother Qingliu?" Shang Muli sat across from him with a grin, the coffee had already come up, and it was still steaming, as if he had guessed that he would come at this point.

Xu Qingliu didn't speak, and helped her add a big spoonful of sugar to her coffee cup, this coffee was too bitter, I was afraid that she wouldn't be used to drinking it. His appearance is too terrifying, Shang Muli wants to escape, and Brother Qingliu's posture must be to educate her.

She was thinking about what he might say, and he spoke: "It turns out that you and Si Jue are not brothers and sisters, why didn't you tell me before?"

"I ...... I don't know. She was still puzzled when Shang Mu Sijue said that they were not related by blood that day, thinking that he was slandering her mother for her own interests, and she found someone to investigate afterwards, just like he said, she was not Shang Mou's biological daughter, but he said such a thing in front of so many people, and also showed her parents' superficial husband and wife affairs, which made her very angry, didn't he destroy their reputation enough? Emphasizing it over and over again will only make her hate him even more.

"You don't know either?" Xu Qingliu raised his eyebrows slightly, it seems that before this, only Shangmu Sijue knew about it, but what could he do if he kept concealing it? He was a little sad, "I was shocked when I heard them say that you and Si Jue were together, and I had no time to ask you, and it didn't take a few days to get the news that you had announced that you were not brother and sister." "The surprise really came one after another, his best friend was with the woman he liked, and this woman was still the sister with whom they grew up.

When he said this, a trace of sadness flashed on Xu Qingliu's face, he never thought that things would turn out like this in the end, his good brother would be the same woman as him.

"You've been together for a long time, haven't you?" Xu Qingliu suddenly felt sarcastic, his heart was obviously mixed, and his words were still very gentle.

Shang Muli sighed, she knew that he would be entangled in this and immediately laughed, "Brother Qingliu, what are you talking about?" Although Shang Mou Sijue and I were a little ambiguous halfway, it was also in the eyes of others, in fact, we didn't have anything. She pushed herself clean, and Xu Qingliu also believed her.

"I know, Xiaoli and Si Jue...... How is it possible for you two. The expression was like a sigh of relief, not the best together.

Shang Muli laughed along, even if there was anything before, it was just acting, but now because of Shang Mu Sijue's disgustingness, she can't continue acting. So no matter if there was anything that shouldn't have happened before, she wouldn't be cheap in the future.

"Then Xiaoli, will you be sad?" After all, his surname is Shang Mu, but he is not from Shang Mu's family. In the past, Master Shang Mu loved her so much, treating her like his own daughter, and even raised her into a pampered and arrogant character, and that kind of doting was difficult to do even if she was biological.

Shang Muli took a sip of coffee and used the aroma of coffee to suppress the sadness in his heart: "It's false to say that I don't care, after all, I have called my father for so many years, but Brother Qingliu, don't worry, I am very strong, and no matter what time it happens, I believe that Brother Qingliu will always stand behind me and support me." ”

"Well, Xiaoli is right. Xu Qingliu rubbed her hair dotingly, she was still her, the woman he wanted to protect for the rest of his life, as long as she could always be happy and smile every day, he would be satisfied. His liking for Shang Muli is the gentleness of the spring breeze, the affection of the long stream, not impatient, not extravagant and not regretful.

"If Xiaoli still has any difficulties in the future, even if you look for me, Brother Qingliu will help you with all his might, you know?" His voice was soft, and he was very comfortable to listen to.

"Got it. She nodded, in addition to her parents, she counted Brother Qingliu

"You're here...... Just right, look at the calligraphy I wrote. Shang Mu Sijue raised his head and gently put down his brush. He seemed to have guessed that Xu Qingliu would come, so he was not surprised or surprised.

Xu Qingliu walked over slowly, looked down at the flowing calligraphy on the table and clapped his hands, "Yes, it's more improved than last time." ”

The two glanced at each other and smiled, the maids sent the tea to the study and consciously retreated, Shang Mu Sijue didn't like the people in the study to be too mixed. Xu Qingliu naturally sat on the chair next to him, raised his hand to drink tea, and said slowly: "Don't you need to explain the matter between you and Xiaoli to me again?"

The corners of Shang Muli's mouth went up, walked around him and patted him on the shoulder, and said firmly: "If the two of us have anything to say, I have also told the people outside what we should say." ”

"There's really nothing to explain to me, it's just that you suddenly announced such a big thing, but you didn't explain it to Xiaoli, she can't accept it. What a shock this was to her, I'm afraid no one who has experienced it firsthand will understand. Xu Qingliu and Shang Mu Sijue have always been good friends, for so many years, he knows all the decisions he has made, when Shang Mu Sijue wanted to drive Shang Mu Li and her younger brother out of Shang Mu Mansion, he stood aside and only felt distress and regret, but that was Shang Mu Sijue's decision, and no one could change what he was determined to do.

Although sometimes Xu Qingliu doesn't understand why he can be so ruthless, but apart from him, there doesn't seem to be anyone who can achieve such career achievements at a young age like him. He lives in Xu Mansion, and he can almost be said to know nothing about business, but he has been friends with Shang Mu Sijue for so many years, and he still has learned, at least he knows that business is not good without a decisive mentality.

mentioned Shang Muli's body, Shang Muli's cold eyes on him in the rain, he still remembers it vividly. The feeling of standing in front of him, but as if he was 108,000 miles away, really hurt him. The ridicule on Shang Mu Sijue's face disappeared, followed by a faint sadness, he sat on the chair next to Xu Qingliu and asked, "Have you already seen her?"

"Well, I treated her to coffee. Xu Qingliu didn't hide it, there is nothing to hide about the relationship between friends.

"Oh. Shang Mu Sijue replied lightly, glanced at him left and right uneasily, his two hands interlaced in front of his chest, and kept stirring, "Did she say something to you?"
