"Lan Yan? Is that you? You're back? ”

The composure on his face was replaced by joy and shock, Chu Yichen couldn't control himself anymore, and reached out to hug the woman in front of him into his arms.

Suddenly surrounded by a strong masculine aura, the expression on Jiang Lanxin's face froze. She was stunned and let Chu Yichen hold her, and it took a long time for her to react.

"Chu Yichen, you let go of me! I am Jiang Lanxin, not Jiang Lanxin! ”

Pushing away the man who was hugging him tightly, Jiang Lan took a few breaths with difficulty.

She blushed and looked very weak when she coughed from time to time, Chu Yichen looked at her for half a minute before accepting the reality.

"I'm sorry, you are too similar to Lan Yan, especially the way you smiled at me just now, it really looks like her!"

Taking a step back, Chu Yichen came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Lanxin to apologize.

His words made Jiang Lan reflexively touch her face, and seeing that Chu Yichen was still looking at her, she squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, and replied with an unnatural facial expression: "My sister and I look exactly the same, and it's normal for you to think that I am very similar to her when I laugh." But I'm me, my sister is my sister, and I ask Young Master Chu not to make any more moves similar to just now in the future! ”

Regarding this, Jiang Lanxin had to worry.

Chu Yichen and her ...... 's sister is the most familiar person, if Chu Yichen always treats her as Jiang Lan's rouge, then the situation she faces will be very troublesome.

The moment he was pushed away by Jiang Lanxin, Chu Yichen faintly realized that he had mistaken Jiang Lanxin.

At this time, Jiang Lanxin made such a request. He had no objection and nodded silently in agreement.

The mountain breeze gradually rose, and the night slowly came.

It was not early, Chu Yichen asked Jiang Lanxin if he wanted to leave with him?

Jiang Lanxin said that she still wanted to be alone with her sister for a while, and Chu Yichen said goodbye to her.

Staring at his back and disappearing from sight, Jiang Lanxin slowly withdrew his gaze.

She turned to look at her face on the tombstone, paused for a long time, and then heard her almost whispering voice say to herself, "It seems that in the future, I will have to be more cautious."

On the mountain road back to the city, Chu Yichen kept thinking about the smile that Jiang Lanxin inadvertently showed in front of him.

He couldn't help but think of Jiang Lanrou, and the whole person was fascinated, and recalled his youthful past again.

When he returned to Chu's house, Chu Yichen walked upstairs like a wandering spirit.

He didn't even hear his mother scream twice, until his mother raised her voice to greet him, "Chu Yichen, where have you been hanging out today?" It's just been a week since I returned to China, why haven't I seen you all day? ”

The mother was angry, and Chu Yichen's scattered soul returned.

He looked at his mother blankly, and he didn't know where he had angered the noble empress of his family.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Walking towards his mother, Chu Yichen asked his mother in a gentle tone as if he cared about a child,

Nan Ke glared at her son, and asked in a very dissatisfied tone, "Why do you think so engrossedly?" Mom can't even hear you? ”

In this family, the status of the mother is like that of the princess and the queen. His father has been a great man in his life, and only in his mother can he get a glimpse of his chivalrous tenderness.

"Ouch, my mother! Am I not busy preparing a big gift for you? You don't think I'm going to be so strict, okay? ”

was scolded by his mother, Chu Yichen hurriedly rubbed her shoulder and replied.

The two are intimate, and Nanke is well-maintained, obviously in his forties, but now he looks like he is only in his thirties. Because she looks young, when she stands with Chu Yichen, the two don't look like mother and son, but like a pair of sisters and brothers.

There were no traces of time on her mother's face, and Chu Yichen looked at her appearance and couldn't help but think of the woman he saw at Brother Xiuyuan's wedding today.

Her appearance is really imaginary with her mother, could it be her mother's sister, or her brother's daughter?

"Mom, do you have a sister or sister or something? If not, either brother or brother can do it! ”

In order to confirm his conjecture, Chu Yichen asked her mother tentatively,

The son suddenly asked such a question, and Nanke didn't know what his purpose was.

Pinched comfortably by her son's massage techniques, she bent her eyebrows slightly, and asked with a smile: "What are you asking for?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I saw a girl when I went out to play today, and I think she looks quite similar to Mom. So I'm wondering if she's my cousin or something......"

Chu Yichen pursed his lips and replied, answering casually.

He didn't know that his casual question had already set off a storm in his mother's heart, and if Chu Yichen looked directly at his mother's expression at this time, then he would definitely find that his mother's expression changed drastically the moment she heard his words.

"Yes...... Is it? Is there such an amazing thing? ”

Trying to suppress the raging waves in his heart, Nan Ke asked calmly.

Chu Yichen didn't notice anything abnormal about his mother, continued to pinch his mother's shoulder, and said half-jokingly: "Yes! I think it's amazing! Mom, don't you have brothers and sisters who look like you? Or do I have a sister who has been left behind? ”

If you ask Chu Yichen why he would make such a joke? That's just because a long time ago, he heard such rumors.

Some do-gooders say that her mother had a child before marrying his couple, but his mother and father vehemently denied such claims, so much so that he only slandered the rumors about her mother.

"Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about, kid?! ”

When his son suddenly said such a thing, Nan Ke was furious.

She stood up from the sofa suddenly, and when she opened her mouth to accuse Chu Yichen, her angry voice seemed to be trembling faintly.

Mother suddenly became so angry that Chu Yichen was completely stunned.

He's just a joke, why is my mother so angry?

"Mom, you...... Why are you so excited? I'm just ...... It's just a joke with you. If you don't like it, then I won't talk about it in the future! ”

For his mother, Chu Yichen, like his father, has always been 100% accommodating.

They would never say what their mother liked, and what their mother didn't like, their kitchen would never cook. Everything in the family is based on his mother's preferences, yes, seeing his mother so angry, Chu Yichen hurriedly admitted his mistake to her.

Looking at her son's speech and incomprehension, Nan Ke realized that she had indeed overreacted just now.

"This ...... That's it! Yichen, don't blame Mom, Mom just thought you mistakenly believed the rumors of those people outside. I only have one child, and you can't have a sister or a sister. ”

A look of unease flashed across her well-groomed face, and her tone was as calm as she could, still a little panicked that she couldn't hide.

When his mother was angry, Chu Yichen didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, his mother added like this, and he stepped forward and hugged her very warmly: "Mom, don't worry!" I just ask casually, so don't be angry. I won't mention it again, and I'll never believe any rumors again, so are you satisfied? ”

The son let himself like this, what else does Nanke have to worry about?

She smiled and nodded, and only after Chu Yichen turned to go upstairs did she show a solemn look on her face.

When Chu Xiong came back from outside, he happened to see his wife's worried expression.

At first, he thought it was his naughty son who had made his wife sad again.

With a calm face, he ordered someone to go upstairs to call Chu Yichen down, ready to beat him up.

This incident was not his son's fault, so Nan Ke stopped him and said, "Brother Xiong, don't, don't call Yichen down." It's not his problem, it's me, it's me! ”

Pressing her temples uncomfortably, Nanke felt that her head was messy like a pot of paste.

She kept thinking about what her son had just said, and her heart was never at ease.

"Xiaoke, what's going on? You've always been calm and self-controlled, what's wrong with today? ”

Taking off his coat and sitting down, Chu Xiong realized that his wife's state was different from the usual.

She looked particularly haggard at this moment, and it felt as if she had aged ten years in an instant.

"She showed up, she finally appeared! But what if I'm not ready to accept her? I...... I...... I don't know how to deal with all this......"

Nan Ke said like crazy, a nonsensical remark may sound a little inexplicable to outsiders, but in Chu Xiong's ears, he understands it clearly.

Holding Nan Ke's slightly trembling hand tightly, Chu Xiong silently gave his wife strength.

When he felt that she was a little calmer, he calmly discussed with her and said, "Don't worry, there is me!" Since you're not ready, I'm going to make arrangements and never let anyone find out about you. ”

Her husband was so considerate of herself, Nan Ke was so moved that she couldn't speak.

She raised her face to look at him, and she didn't know how long it took for her to agree to his arrangement.

"Brother Xiong, it's good to have you! Otherwise, I am afraid that my life will be stuck forever 26 years ago. ”

There were bursts of indescribable emotions in her heart, and Nan Ke leaned her head on her husband's broad shoulders and sighed with emotion.

His wife's words were full of gratitude, and Chu Xiong didn't need to look at her expression to know how sincere she was.

It's just that he ...... to her In addition to her gratitude, he also wants her heart!

"Xiaoke, have you forgotten him after so many years? I love you, love you, and protect you for half your life, do you also have a place in your heart that belongs to me? ”

Although she knew that she couldn't compare to that man in her heart, Chu Xiong couldn't help but want to ask.

This man who can call the wind and rain in both black and white, he is so proud and respected by all people outside, but who would have thought that his love would be so humble?

A dull pain flashed in the depths of his heart, and Nan Ke felt sad for him.

She looked up at him again, and responded directly to him with her thoughts.

Being shouted out of the room in a hurry, Chu Yichen thought that there was something big about his father calling him.

Walking quickly to the staircase, he looked downstairs, only to see his father and mother hugging each other and kissing selflessly, he couldn't stop snorting in disgust, and before covering his eyes, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth that was difficult to hide.
