"That'...... And after that? I asked with difficulty, but it didn't sound like my own.

He frowned slightly, "After that, it was difficult for us to find out, the security measures at the Furcumens Mansion are very tight, and no one can find out the exact condition of Jossy, but I have heard some rumors that he is recovering well." ”

Come to think of it, there is no need to ask these questions, if he really has any strengths and weaknesses, he will not have the energy to track me down for more than a year after that.

It's just that Mr. Bader doesn't talk about it, and I understand him, and he doesn't want to tell me, because he must be afraid that after I know it, he will relent, and throw himself back into the arms of Zorsi, and then his hard work will be in vain.

If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. No matter how considerate he is to me, he can't give up his own interests.

"I was a little worried about what the old fox would do to you, but now it seems that I don't have to worry." A smile twitched at the corner of his mouth, "Not only don't you have to worry, presumably, you still like your current life very much, right?" ”

"Oh?" Instead, I became interested and asked, "How so?" ”

"Do you have to tell me?" He asked rhetorically, raising the corners of his lips playfully, "Before I came, I naturally did my homework, and by the way, I listened to some of the songs you composed, although there are sadness and joy, but there is no trace of coercion in these songs, and the music reveals people's hearts, and what can be more accurate than these notes to peek into your state of mind." ”

I laughed, "I am really grateful that Master Rollsstewart has such a heart—this time it is sincere." I looked at him earnestly.

With a faint smile on his lips, he didn't say anything, only turned to the piano.

"It's a good tune, it's just ......" he looked down at the keys, thoughtful.

"Lack of meaning, huh?" I replied angrily: "You said it simply, what is the connotation, and what is the essence?" Is it so easy to express? ”

"Tell me about your subject." He didn't argue, only asked softly.

"Night."

After a little thought, Shang Xinyi raised his hand and struck a few staccato notes on the keys, but it was definitely different from my previous sense of depth, but it had a somewhat light-like meaning.

"Capture the soul of the night...... he said slowly, "the night is not necessarily dark. ”

One sentence broke down, which made me stunned, but I just tasted it carefully, but the concise sentence was very meaningful. I can't help but chuckle, it turns out that the rich boy learning music theory and musical instruments is not only to do superficial kung fu and vassal elegance, but also to think that he really has some skills.

The night was already deep, and the shadows of the trees in the starlight hit the piano, showing mottled traces. He interrupted my musings, "I came in a hurry just now, and I have some things to do before dawn, so I'll go first." ”

"Hmm." I escorted him to the door, "Be careful all the way." ”

He looked at me, as if he was about to say something, his eyes drooped, and for a moment, but he only said a word of early rest, and then turned and threw himself into the thick of the night.

I sighed, if I didn't know some things, I wouldn't have to worry about them, but I already knew that this night, I am afraid that it will be difficult to rest peacefully.

Early the next morning, someone came to visit.

When I opened the door, I saw the well-dressed Young Master Shang.

“Morning，Love。” He stood in the sunlight outside the door, smiling brightly.

"Thank goodness you've finally learned to walk through the front door of my house." Although I had seen him last night, I was still surprised by his second visit, and I said sarcastically.

"As you wish, Xiao Ruori, I will often go to the front door of your house in the future." As if referring to something else, his smile was stained with some evil for no reason.

Vaguely sensing that something was wrong, I glanced at him suspiciously, "Come in." ”

At the sound of the voice, Nik poked his head out of the stairs.

"Come here, Nik," I beckoned him down, "there's a guest coming, this is ......"

Before he could introduce him, Shang Xunyi smiled at Nik who walked in front of him familiarly, smiling with a friendly face and a soft tone, "Are you Nik, hello, my name is Ian." ”

"Brother Ian, hello." Nik greeted in a childish voice, "My brother is so good-looking. ”

Hearing this, Shang Jingyi couldn't help but smile brightly, Nik's innocent appreciation made him very useful, "The child is so well-behaved......" He handed the cardboard box in his hand to Nik, bent down and touched Nik's head, "Give it to you." ”

As if he had come prepared, I looked at him inquiringly, "You didn't come here early in the morning just to give a gift, did you?" "Nothing to do is indebted, and it inevitably makes me suspicious.

He sat down on the sofa and said with disgust: "Ruori, please don't doubt my kindness." ”

"Really?" I sat down across from him, tilting my head, silently but insightfully staring at him.

Unable to disguise his gaze from me, he flattened his mouth, "Okay...... Actually, I'm here to ask you to take me in......"

"What?" I was amazed and suspected I had misheard.

"You know, I have no relatives in the UK, only you have a friend......" The young master Shang's unchanging lying skills really made me admire.

I interrupted him unceremoniously, "With the authority of the head of your dignified Stuart family, I am afraid that it will not take ten minutes to make such a small thing as a house for any one of your subordinates." Besides, with your family's huge financial network, there must be an industry in the UK, and if you have business dealings, will you worry about having no friends? ”

"How many of the friends you make in business are genuine? And I just got a house at random, and I lived alone, and every day was empty, and there was no one to talk to me......" He lowered his tone, and even pretended to be melancholy.

I'm a little funny, they are a business giant crocodile playboy, there is no shortage of women around them, isn't it common for fat fans to surround sleeping flowers and willows on weekdays? Even if you don't have friends, you won't be lonely.

"Excuse me." I resolutely refused, "I'm used to being pure, and besides, you're too eye-catching, Zoshi must have stared you to death a long time ago, and if you are taken in, I'm not asking for trouble." ”

"I can protect you." His eyes sparkled.

"Don't."

"Come.on, don't be so stingy, your house doesn't have a room," he continued, "Besides, I can still play with Nik." ”

I didn't hesitate to give him a roll of the eye, "Why don't you go back to your own house, you must stay in England?" ”

He seemed to be a little embarrassed on his face, and explained intermittently: "I ...... I have to stay here for a while, and the United States can't go back for the time being...... But by the way, I'll take care of this side of things......"

Seeing that he was a little embarrassed on his face, I became more and more curious, this Shang Xunyi, who has always been so chic that no one can control it, will actually have a difficult time? It's amazing.

"Ruori ......," he gave me a pitiful look.

I looked away, unmoved.

"That'...... I'm going to live near your house anyway," he compromised, and asked childishly, "I can come to you from time to time." ”

I thought to myself, this time we met, he was most of his mask-like disguise at all times, and his nature was also kind.

I nodded, "Whatever you want." ”
