There was tension between Murong Chong and Meng Bin, Lin Ruo saw it clearly, she held Murong Chong's hand, smiled at him slightly, then looked at Meng Bin and said, "Brother Jiu, why are you here too?" ”

Meng Bin's gaze turned to Lin Ruo, and the rebelliousness and coldness in his eyes instantly dissipated, replaced by a warm gaze like spring, and said gently: "The contract between the Meng family and Beiqi was signed by me and Brother Huai Jin, if something goes wrong, how can I not come in person?" ”

In and out of the words, Meng Bin was vaguely reminding Murong Chong that he was also one of the participants in this matter.

"That's right, this trip can go so smoothly, thanks to Brother Jiu's help," Lin Ruo's eyes crooked with a smile, "I heard that when the spring begins next year, Brother Jiu will be married." However, I can't come to congratulate you in person, so I can only ask Lao Qi to prepare a rich congratulatory gift for you to show my heart, and Brother Jiu must not be blamed. ”

As soon as Lin Ruo's words came out, Murong Chong's depressed mood became inexplicably clear. And Meng Bin saw Murong Chong's provocative smile, looked at Lin Ruo, many words choked in his throat, and he couldn't say it anymore, so he could only show a bitter smile at Lin Ruo.

He wanted to say: I will never be willing to blame you.

But he couldn't say that.

I could only watch Lin Ruo and Murong Chong walk hand in hand, walking towards Li Yan.

Meng Bin looked at them, the two of them were very close and said something affectionately, but the voice was too small and blew in the wind. He didn't hear anything.

"You're here."

Li Yan took Li Xi'en by the hand, turned his head, and looked at Lin Ruo and Murong Chong calmly.

Lin Ruo nodded, looked at Li Xi'en, who was trembling beside Li Yan and had been hiding behind Li Yan, half-bent over, and said gently: "Xi'en, do you remember me?" ”

Li Xien didn't seem to understand what she said, and moved a few steps behind Li Yan.

When Li Yan pulled him out, Li Xien's uneasy eyes dodged everywhere and let out a cry of protest.

"Sorry!"

"Brother Li, don't force him to ......"

Lin Ruo hurriedly persuaded, and when Li Yan's strength was released, Li Xien hid behind Li Yan again.

Looking at Li Xien like this, Lin Ruo was very distressed and unbearable.

Li Yan sighed, turned around, and said to Li Xien, "Xi'en, she is an aunt, the aunt that my father told you, do you remember?" ”

"Auntie?"

Li Xien heard the familiar words, stopped struggling, and glanced at Lin Ruo cautiously through Li Yan's back.

"Yes, Auntie."

Li Yan gently affirmed his words.

With her father's affirmation, Li Xien was bold again, glanced at Lin Ruo, smiled warmly and kindly at Lin Ruo, retracted her head again, and repeated this a few times, seeing that she was still smiling to herself warmly like that, she relaxed a little and moved half of her body from behind Li Yan.

Lin Ruo stretched out his hand to him and said softly, "Xi'en, I'm my aunt." ”

Li Xien glanced at his father, then tentatively stretched out his hand, touched Lin Ruo's fingertips, and immediately retracted like an electric shock. Carefully looked at Lin Ruo's expression, and saw that she was not angry, so he repeated it a few more times.

Perhaps when he saw Lin Ruo's clear smile, he felt Lin Ruo's kindness, so Li Xien tried to test it a few times, and finally got bold, held Lin Ruo's hand, and whispered tentatively: "Auntie." ”

Lin Ruo smiled with relief, didn't dare to scare her, didn't reach out to touch his head, just maintained this appearance, and let Li Xien slowly learn to get closer.

Looking at the two of them interacting awkwardly, Murong Chong walked up to Li Yan and asked in a low voice, "What is he ......?"

Li Yan glanced at Murong Chong, his eyes filled with sadness, as if he wanted to tell Murong Chong, but it was more like saying to Lin Ruo: "Xi'en is too stimulated and refuses to communicate with others." I have read the letter sent by Ah Ruo, and I have tried the above methods, but I have tried my best to make him familiar with my voice, so that he can slowly understand what I am saying. As for the others, she couldn't communicate with them at all. I told him about Ah Ruo and told him that he had an aunt, and he was just holding the mentality of giving it a try, but I didn't expect him to accept Ah Ruo so quickly. ”

Murong Chong nodded, he was deeply sympathetic to what happened to Li Xien, but in comparison, he was still a little anxious to know about Midu. It's just that he also knows that it's too ruthless to open his mouth now.

Li Yan is a smart person, so he naturally understands what Murong Chong thinks. The very important reason why he asked them to meet here is that this is the place where Midu ordered people to ambush and slaughter his family, and he wanted to avenge them, but he couldn't bear to let Li Xi'en, who was clinging to him, leave a bad memory again.

"Ahh

Lin Ruo sneezed inappropriately.

It was already cold here, and Lin Ruo, in order not to frighten Li Xien, communicated with him well, and maintained his outstretched hand motionless for a long time.

This sneeze did startle Li Xien, but when he saw Lin Ruo pouting and rubbing his red nose, he inexplicably felt a little funny, and he effortlessly hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Li Xien suddenly smiled, his smile was as clean as a baby who did not know the world.

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, although in the past three years, Li Xien has been very clingy to himself, but most of the time, he is very uneasy and panicked, as for laughing, it is really rare.

However, just now, Li Xien smiled.

Because of Lin Ruo, Li Xien smiled!

Lin Ruo looked at Li Xien blankly for a moment, and then smiled.

She has always felt that she owes Li Xi'en something. If it weren't for her being too obsessed and not stopping Aunt Li's party in time, who was anxious to go to Beiqi, they would not have encountered accidents, and Li Xien would not have become what she is now.

Even after knowing that the murderer who caused this tragedy was Midu, she could guess that even if she let Aunt Li and her party wait until the beginning of spring before leaving, it would be the same ending, and she still couldn't let go.

Li Xien was originally a bright and cheerful child, and she would always tease him with funny gadgets, listen to his giggles, and listen to him call her aunt in a milky voice. It's a pity that now, he has become a teenager with impairments in perception, understanding and expression, how can Lin Ruo not feel distressed?

Fortunately, Li Xien did not reject her, which made Lin Ruo a little happy.

"Xi'en, aunt Leng, you accompany your aunt to wait for your father in the carriage, okay?"

Lin Ruo spoke slowly, but Li Xien looked dazed and couldn't fully understand what Lin Ruo meant. Lin Ruo patiently and slowly repeated this sentence more than a dozen times until Li Xien fully understood.

Li Xien, who understood the meaning, shook his head, retreated to Li Yan's side, and refused aggrievedly: "No! ”

Small Theatre:

Lin Ruo: (sniffing) Why does it have a sour taste?

Murong Chong: Hmph!

Li Xien: I reported it, my aunt, the vinegar jar, turned over~

Murong Chong: (embarrassed) ......
