Chapter 12

When he had finished, Kriya did not speak again for a long time. The study was very quiet, the sunlight was still pouring in, and there was already a vibrant scene outside the window, He Ningzhou leaned on the back of the chair and looked up and sighed softly.

For some reason, the man's face appeared in front of his eyes, happy, annoyed, cold, and every expression was so vivid and dazzling as stars.

At this time, a knock outside the door broke the silence in the house, and He Ningzhou raised his voice: "Please come in." ”

The door opened, and all three people in the room looked towards the door, and saw the red-haired, red-eyed man dressed in black enter.

He Ningzhou calmly walked around the desk to greet him, and the other two also stood up, He Ningzhou walked to Shen Xinghe's side and introduced him: "This is your eldest brother, His Royal Highness Kriya, and this is your second brother, His Royal Highness Govis." ”

Shen Xinghe looked at the two people.

The same white court costume, the style is similar to He Ningzhou's military uniform, the eldest brother is purple hair and purple eyes, the color is very light, he is very good-looking, starry eyes and sword eyebrows, light thin lips, straight and tall nose bridge, this person is very temperamental, noble and elegant, but standing there there has a sense of existence and oppression that cannot be ignored, his first impression is heroic, very young vigor and vitality, the age should be about the same as He Ningzhou. As for the second brother, he has blue hair, the color of the sea, and a pair of amber eyes, his appearance is obviously much softer than that of the eldest brother, and he is half a head shorter, and he smiled back when Shen Xinghe looked at him, very kind.

They are the two older brothers of this body, and they are really very good characters.

"Big brother, second brother." Shen Xinghe took a step forward and said very well-behaved.

"Sawyer, long time no see," Govis said in a soft, comfortable voice, "Actually, if I wasn't too busy, I should have come to see you earlier." Shen Xinghe knew that "Sawyer" was Thorrod's nickname.

Smiling shyly, Shen Xinghe's gaze involuntarily moved to Kriya, as if he wanted to hear him speak, and behind him, He Ningzhou also kept watching that person, waiting for his reaction.

At this time, Kriya and Shen Xinghe's eyes met.

Rao has the same face, and the person in front of him can also clearly feel that he is no longer the former Sawyer.

Sawa gives the impression of being shy, soft and glutinous, the kind that makes people want to spoil and protect, which has something to do with the fact that he is still a minor Mizuki meg phantom clan. And the person in front of him...... He is not like the Mizuki Clan, because he is not weak, although he is not an adult, although his appearance is too beautiful, but he is not to be underestimated. There is a light in his eyes, which can see firmness, dexterity and wisdom, which makes people feel that his potential is limitless, and this person will not make people want to protect, but they are very much looking forward to his growth.

Rao didn't want to believe it anymore, but he had to believe that the previous Sawyer was gone, and he was replaced by another person.

So what should you do? Turn around and leave, don't pay attention to him anymore, don't know that there is such a person as him in this world? He should have done this, because he was no longer Sawyer, just a stranger who had nothing to do with him.

But ...... "When he knew he had a brother, he wanted to see you." "Sawyer is gone, but Heaven has given you another brother at the same time." "He left his original family, but he was happy to have relatives in this completely strange world." ……

Why does it hurt so much when I think of these words?

Kriya stared at the familiar and unfamiliar face, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke: "Why didn't anyone tell you?" You should call me 'brother' instead of 'big brother'. The corners of his lips rose, his eyes softened, and a shallow smile spread like this, making Shen Xinghe's heartbeat uncontrollably quicken.

He Ningzhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, Kriya's eyes had turned normal purple, which showed that he was in a good mood. Shen Xinghe was stunned, he really didn't expect this person to laugh so beautifully, as dazzling as the sun.

"Okay, you brothers let's talk first, I'll go out to find them, and set up a banquet for the two highnesses in the evening." With that, he walked out, closed the door, and leaned back on it and sighed.

At this time, Anles was walking down the corridor, and when he saw this, he came to his side and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?" How are the three Highnesses getting along? Obviously, Kria may not be able to accept Shen Xinghe's situation, which is not surprising to him.

"They should get along just fine." He Ningzhou straightened up and asked him to leave with him, "It's just that when I think of the previous Highness, I suddenly feel a little distressed." We are not his closest relatives, and it is easy to accept the fact that we are a different person, aren't we sorry for him? ”

"Yes, indeed." Although he didn't know what he had said to Kria before, it didn't prevent Anles from understanding what he meant, so he also said, "But what can we do but accept it?" He won't come back, are we going to ignore the new Highness and leave him to fend for himself? He Ningzhou," he also spoke seriously at this time, "Don't think about this matter anymore, since the other two highnesses can accept it, I believe that the king and queen will not mind too much." ”

He Ningzhou nodded and did not speak.

In the study, Shen Xinghe came back to his senses after He Ningzhou left, and asked Kria very puzzled: "Why 'brother'?" What about the second brother? Also shouting 'brother'? ”

"The second brother is the 'second brother', and I am the 'elder brother'!" After saying this loudly, Kriya immediately laughed and walked over and hugged Shen Xinghe when he didn't have time to react, which was a gesture he often did to Thorrod before.

“…… You, what do you do! Put me down! Shen Xinghe was so embarrassed, how could this person hold him in such a posture? He struggled to get out of the man's arms.

"Obedient, what are you afraid of making out with your brother? I used to hold you like that. Kriya lowered her head and looked at Shen Xinghe with a smile, who slowly stopped moving after hearing his words, and then reached out to wrap her arms around his neck and buried her head in his shoulder.

"Wow," Seeing him calm down, Kriya was very satisfied, and then noticed that his weight was definitely abnormal, "Little brother, how heavy are you, there are more than seven hundred pounds." ”

"More than seven hundred pounds?" Govis also stepped forward in surprise, "How is that possible?" ”

"Who is more than 700 catties," Shen Xinghe said dissatisfiedly: "I am wearing an iron ring of about 650 catties!" ”

"Oh," said Kriya, "I say, but I shouldn't be accurate, you're still very light on me." As he spoke, he walked to the chair and sat down, and Shen Xinghe sat on his lap.

He has never had the experience of being held like this, but Shen Xinghe is not very repulsive, although the man he is leaning on at this time is the first time they have met, he gives people a familiar feeling, which must be because the previous owner of the body has a close relationship with him. His arms are wide and warm, a good nest to take comfort in moments of frustration and pain. In addition, he is also a phantom clan, and at this time, he has taken away that oppression, and his aura is full of tolerance and nostalgia.

Govis sat in the chair across from them, smiling and watching them quietly, without speaking.

"I said, brother, why aren't you enthusiastic about your little brother at all?" Kriya didn't know who he was teasing when he said it, which made Shen Xinghe feel very uncomfortable listening to it.

"You've been enthusiastic, how can I be enthusiastic?" Govis spread his hands and was very innocent.

"Oh, then you'll be enthusiastic when I'm done."

"You two ......" Shen Xinghe couldn't help but protest, why did he speak more and more indecently?

When He Ningzhou returned to the study again, it was already three hours later, and the three people in the study were very happy, and Shen Xinghe and Kria were still in the same posture as before. Of course, this is not to say that they sat like this for three hours, Kriya would occasionally listen to Govis's standing up activities, of course, he did not let go of Shen Xinghe, and the latter was taken by him to do "activities" in this way.

When He Ningzhou came in, Shen Xinghe sat on Kriya's lap like this, and the two looked very intimate. For some reason, He Ningzhou's heart was tense and very uncomfortable, and he involuntarily looked away a little, but this strangeness was fleeting.

"Your Royal Highness, the dinner is ready, please move to the restaurant." As he spoke, he looked at the wall at the end of Kriya's right.

"Good work." Shen Xinghe sighed, and just as he wanted to get up, he suddenly realized his current appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly whispered to Kriya: "Brother, let me down!" ”

Kriya didn't insist, so he let go of his hand, Shen Xinghe stood on the ground and subconsciously looked at He Ningzhou, but the latter didn't look at him, turned around and took the lead out of the study, which made Shen Xinghe's heart also have a sudden pain.

"He Ningzhou," the four of them walked in the corridor, and Govis stepped forward to walk with He Ningzhou, leaving the two behind, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, you ......"

Shen Xinghe looked at the expressions of the two people in front of him when they were talking, and then he knew that they had a good relationship, He Ningzhou's lips kept smiling, and his eyes were also very soft, Shen Xinghe thought that he hadn't even seen that person's expression a few times.

At this time, Govis raised a hand and put it on He Ningzhou's arm, which should have been an inadvertent action, but it made Shen Xinghe feel a little dazzling, and he was about to look away, when he was attracted by something again.

"Brother," Shen Xinghe said to Kria beside him, "Look at the ring on the second brother's hand." He raised his hand and looked down at his left hand, where the two rings looked the same size, both on the ring finger of his left hand, and the red diamonds on them were so bright and dazzling.

Shen Xinghe's gaze shifted to Kriya's face, "Is that also what He Ningzhou gave him?" ”

"That's right," Kriya nodded, "because Via didn't like the aura of the Phantom Clan, so He Ningzhou gave him the ring, and it was a long time ago. It turns out that Heningzhou also gave you one? I really didn't notice that the ring was originally a pair, given to him by He Ningzhou's father. ”

"Yes." Shen Xinghe's voice lowered, and he glanced at the two people in front of him again, and a burst of emotion called "loss" surged in his heart, which also swept away the good mood when he chatted with the two brothers before.

It turned out that the ring he gave himself didn't actually have any special meaning, because the same other one he had given to someone else a long time ago.

At this time, Shen Xinghe hadn't noticed or thought carefully about why he had such emotions.

After the dinner, the three Shen Xinghe brothers chatted together in Kria's room for a long time, and when they returned to their bedroom, it was already past ten o'clock.

At this time, Shen Xinghe usually uses it to read books, but today he is inexplicably not interested, he just wants to lie on the bed and look at the ceiling blankly, his body is sunk in the soft mattress, and the fatigue is gradually alleviating, but for some reason, he wants to lie like this all the time and stop thinking about anything.

I don't know how long it took, there was a knock on the door, and Shen Xinghe didn't bother to pay attention to it, he knew that no matter who it was, he would push the door in by himself after knocking twice.

Sure enough, soon there was the sound of the door being pushed open and the footsteps of someone approaching the bed, and Shen Xinghe still maintained his original posture without looking at it.

"What's wrong? Feeling bad? The footsteps of the person who came stopped beside the bed, and there was no other movement, his voice fell, and Shen Xinghe heard that it was He Ningzhou's voice, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

This man would come to him at this time? Shen Xinghe suddenly wanted to smile, and a warm feeling slipped through his heart, like warm water flowing.

It's a strange mood, sudden joy and sorrow, as if the mood is completely out of his control, in fact, Shen Xinghe doesn't like this feeling.

With a slight sigh, he turned his face to look at the bed, where the man was standing, smiling lightly and his eyes gentle as water.

"Why are you here?" Shen Xinghe didn't notice what kind of emotion his voice contained, complaining, joyful, tender, all kinds of emotions were undoubtedly expressed in this sentence alone.

"Come and see you," He Ningzhou's expression didn't change much, but he kept staring at the person on the bed, his eyes were distant and helpless, "As for why I want to come to see you, I don't know." "This is true, He Ningzhou himself has always wanted to see that person since when, that desire is not strong, but it is continuous in his heart, which makes people unable to calm down, but he has not had time to be alone with this person until now.

His words made Shen Xinghe laugh out loud. Sitting up, Shen Xinghe looked at him playfully, "It's really strange for you to speak." By the way, you said before that you wanted me to be prepared when I met my brother, did you mean his attitude towards me? Thinking of that brother, Shen Xinghe could only say that the changes between his movements were really worlds apart, who would have thought that the person who looked majestic and even intimidating would behave so childishly?

He Ningzhou remembered the scene at that time, but nodded quietly, "Yes, he is usually fine, and he has the demeanor of a prince of a country, but when he is with you, he is very clingy, which is really speechless." ”

Shen Xinghe exhaled, said with a bitter face, and said with a pitiful look: "Isn't he like this to the second brother?" Just for me? ”

"It should be said that he likes to stick to you with your second brother, because he thinks the younger the younger the younger the cuter. I'm thinking, if you're a Phantom Clan, it might be better, but whoever made you a Mizuki Clan is only stuck to him. Your second brother is not as reliant as him, you should also know it. ”

These words made Shen Xinghe feel a lot of emotion. Why is it so pitiful to be a brother of the Mizuki Clan MEG Phantom Clan to be bullied by that unserious Phantom Clan brother? It's really unreasonable. However, the second brother is indeed much quieter than him, gentle and elegant, very likable. It is said that at the dinner party, the two elder brothers will often make vegetables for themselves, but the elder brother is verbose while serving the dishes, and laughs very stupidly.

Thinking of this, Shen Xinghe couldn't help but think that at that time, the two elder brothers were sitting on both sides of him, but He Ningzhou was sitting on the right side of the second brother, he took good care of the second brother, and he would cook for the second brother when the second brother was cooking for himself.

"Do you have a good relationship with my second brother? I see you gave him a ring too. Shen Xinghe barely thought when he asked this sentence, and naturally he didn't be tactful and roundabout.

And He Ningzhou replied very simply: "Well, yes, because we grew up together, I and your eldest brother and An, Bao, and Xi are close in age, and the gap between them is only two or three years old, so we often play together." Later, your second brother was born, he was the Mizuki meg phantom clan, and he was twenty years younger than us, and everyone regarded him as a little brother. He's very nice, cute, and never cries, so we all like him. I may have a better relationship with him than others, because, Paula is also a child who doesn't grow up, and Nozomi is very cold to everyone, and as for Ann, he prefers to read, so only I often play with your second brother. Speaking of which, his personality is my favorite type, and it is very comfortable to be with him without any unpleasant feelings. ”

When he said this, Shen Xinghe didn't know if he noticed his smile at this time, as if he was reminiscing about a pleasant experience, and that kind of nostalgic look was not reserved at all. Shen Xinghe believed that his words were completely true, without a trace of falsehood, and therefore even a little envious of the person who was almost perfect in his heart, maybe anyone who heard such praise couldn't help but think, if in anyone's mind, he would have such an impression, how good it would be.

Shen Xinghe never thought that the second brother would be such an image in his mind.

"As for that ring, in fact, Via he didn't hate the breath of the Phantom Clan, but he just felt that it would hinder the normal interaction between the Phantom Clan and the Mizuki Clan, and I wanted to give it to him a long time ago, but at that time, my ability was not useful, so he used Ria's ring, and later, my ability finally surpassed Ria before I gave him the ring."

I see. Shen Xinghe looked down at the ring on his hand, and suddenly felt that it was so bleak, compared to the meaning of that ring, his own was too inferior.

"Compared to your second brother," the man said to Shen Xinghe Dao, "You didn't have much contact with us when you were a child, because we were both thirty years old when you were born, and we had to stay in our own fiefdom to study and prepare for the adult assessment, so before I was officially appointed as your martial arts teacher, I only met you a few times when I went to Wangcheng occasionally." ”

"And I don't have a good impression of it." Shen Xinghe answered depressedly, remembering the attitude of the person when he first arrived. Really, my mood now is many times worse than before this person came......

"That's not going to happen." He Ningzhou smiled, "Actually, you are also very good, otherwise your eldest brother would not like you so much, but I don't have much contact with you, and after becoming your teacher, I think you are ......" His words stopped abruptly because he thought of something, and then continued calmly: "It's nothing, now that you have grown up, you are naturally a lot more mature than before." ”

Shen Xinghe sighed faintly, and didn't want to worry about what he wanted to say just now, just looked at him in an almost complaining tone and said, "What are you here for tonight?" I don't know why I came to see me, and praised my second brother so much, but it seems that I am useless, so you might as well not come to see me. ”

He Ningzhou blinked, from his point of view, what he said was just answering the question of the person in front of him, without any meaning of praise or disparagement, so he didn't know why this person had such thoughts?

He Ningzhou smiled and sat down on the edge of the bed, such a posture that allowed him to look at the person on the bed, "What, aren't you happy that I came to see you?" Still not happy that I praised your second brother? I'm not saying that you're useless, and you don't need to compare with your second brother, you are you, he is him, there is no comparison. ”

His words didn't make Shen Xinghe much happy, some people are like this, they can't listen to other people's persuasion when they recognize something, so Shen Xinghe didn't give him a good face, pursed his lips, and said, "Don't come to me if you're okay in the future, I don't want to see you." ”

"......" He Ningzhou didn't say anything more, got up and left. Shen Xinghe lay on the bed angrily, his right hand clenched into a fist and wanted to collapse the bed.

He was in a very bad mood, but he still didn't think about the root cause of his mood.

The next day, when Shen Xinghe got up, he was already much later than usual, and he was dozing off again, and when he got out of bed, he was thinking that this was because he didn't want to move in bed last night, so he slept so late that he was listless when he got out of bed.

Theoretically, getting up late means that you have to be late for the morning, so you should hurry up, and Shen Xinghe seems to be deliberately killing time, and when he finally takes care of his image and rushes to the restaurant for breakfast, it is already time for the first class.

In the restaurant at this time, Shen Xinghe's Xiduo and Paulrot, who are usually difficult to see when he had breakfast, were almost finished, and An Laisi, who would leave after eating, was still sitting in place at this time, and the two elder brothers were also there, and He Ningzhou naturally did not leave. When Shen Xinghe came in, He Ningzhou took out the hourglass and looked at it, and then continued to sit there as if nothing had happened, without looking at Shen Xinghe or speaking.

Shen Xinghe walked to his seat and sat down casually as if he didn't know that there was still a class in the morning, between the two elder brothers, and after he sat down, he couldn't help but doze off.
