Ye Luo suddenly didn't dare to break such a silence.

"How's Auntie doing now?"

Chu Ran was not in a hurry at all, and when he spoke, he was still the same as before.

"The doctor said that it was the last time, I came back this time to go through the formalities, and my mother had to stay by her side for the last time." Meng Wenrui's voice was extremely hoarse.

"Well, just say anything straight."

"Okay." It was as if his throat was sealed thick by something, and he couldn't say anything.

No one spoke the whole time, and it was quiet that nothing could be heard except the sound of a heartbeat.

Ye Luo felt that such silence was very familiar.

This is a sign of a person's growth.

Chu Ran didn't think about getting any reception banquet for Meng Wenrui, and his current state was not suitable for such bells and whistles.

In the end, they just took Meng Wenrui to a hotel they used to frequent.

Chu Ran asked, "Do you want wine?" ”

Meng Wenrui: "No, I have to stay awake all the time now." ”

Chu Ran didn't say anything after hearing this.

Although it was a meal, the meal was unusually silent.

Ye Luo originally wanted to ask for more things, but when he saw Meng Wenrui like this, he didn't say a word.

There are some things that you can see even if you don't say them.

There were only two people when I went back.

"You didn't eat much just now, do you want to eat more?"

She was absent-minded when she was eating just now, but she didn't expect Chu Ran to see it all.

"No, I'm not too hungry, I just didn't expect Meng Wenrui to change so much, it feels like a different person."

"People will always grow up, he used to be able to be so easy because of someone on his head to support him, someone to love, but when all this is about to be lost, whether he wants to or not, growth is inevitable." Chu Ran said.

Ye Luo didn't know what was going on, and when he heard Chu Ran say this, he just nodded as if he didn't understand.

"Don't think about it, he's an adult, and he'll always adjust." Because there is no one who can tolerate him as much as now.

As if it was a prophecy, Chu Ran received a call a week later.

Meng Wenrui's mother died.

One o'clock in the morning on a snowy night.

Suddenly, he fell ill, and he died of illness before he even had time to rescue him.

At that time, Meng Wenrui was already there, but the news of Mrs. Meng's death was so sudden that everyone couldn't take care of Meng Wenrui.

Meng Wenrui is a child who has not yet grown up for them.

Maybe it's sad at this time, but it'll be fine after a while.

When they were discussing how to do the funeral, Meng Wenrui, who had been silent, stood up and said that he would personally handle his mother's funeral.

Chu Ran and Ye Luo rushed over overnight.

Mrs. Meng is not only the mother of her friend, but also Chu Ran's aunt, the two families are families, so it is reasonable for Chu Ran to rush over.

Of course, when Chu Ran saw Meng Wenrui in an all-black suit from afar, he finally felt that he had really become a man.

Meng Wenrui raised his eyes, but his haggard face had a resolute look, his eyes were a little red, but his eyes were extremely firm.

Chu Ran took a bouquet of lilies and put it on Mrs. Meng, she was still no different from when she was alive, Chu Ran was in a trance, she seemed to be just sleeping peacefully.

He hadn't seen Madame Meng for a long time, and she seemed to be what she was in his head.

Ye Luo bowed and looked at the woman's smile in the photo.

On the black and white posthumous photo, she smiled very quietly, beautiful and temperamental.

She turned her gaze to Meng Wenrui, who had lost the person who loved him the most in the world.

There was an old man standing next to Meng Wenrui, a little similar to Meng Wenrui's eyebrows, just like an old version of Meng Wenrui, he bowed to everyone who came to mourn.

Ye Luo still wanted to see it, but he was led away by Chu Ran.

Of course, they live in the Meng family.

This was the first time Ye Luo came to the Meng family, but he was not in the mood, he only felt extremely tired.

I flew over overnight, and I basically didn't sleep well.

"Aren't you worried?" Ye Luo yawned and slept next to Chu Ran, and the two of them snuggled up to each other.

"I was a little worried when I came, but after seeing him, I realized that he could already bear the burden on his body, and I didn't need to worry too much."

For Chu Ran, Meng Wenrui is like a brother.

But he understands better that as a man, there are responsibilities that must be borne on his shoulders.

He looked down to see that Ye Luo was already asleep under the dim lamp.

Her breathing was even, and the small sound of breathing was particularly beautiful in the room.

He couldn't help but rub his cheek against her, and then fell asleep.

The funeral had already been done the day before.

Mrs. Meng chose to be cremated, and the ashes were placed under the cemetery that had been selected a long time ago.

Before Ye Luo came to her senses, Chu Ran woke her up.

"What time is it?" She hadn't reacted to the jet lag yet, she thought it was in China, she was sleeping in a daze, and her nose was also Weng, her hands directly wrapped around Chu Ran's neck, pulling him towards her, just like hugging a pillow, she wanted him to continue sleeping with her.

"Although I would also like to sleep with you, but we are not at home now, we are at Meng's house, so baby, it's time for us to get up and have breakfast."

Chu Ran wanted to continue sleeping in the face of Ye Luo's enthusiasm, but he couldn't.

The people of the Meng family were all downstairs, and he couldn't let Ye Luo continue to sleep.

Ye Luo pondered for a while, feeling that the temperature in winter only wanted people to lie in the bed, but when he heard the words Meng family, Ye Luo completely sobered up.

She's not at home right now, so she can't be so willful.

Chu Ran saw that she had completely sobered up, patted her face and said, "Get dressed and come down, I'll go downstairs first." ”

"Yes."

Chu Ran came out of the room and closed the door, and when he turned around, he saw Meng Wenrui.

His eyes were blue and black, and his eyes were still red.

"Haven't slept all night?"

Chu Ran took out the mint candy and gave it to him.

Meng Wenrui took it into his mouth, the coolness spread from the tip of his tongue, and the bitterness in his mouth seemed to be reduced a little.

Chu Ran patted him on the shoulder: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's better and more stable to take it step by step." ”

"Yes." Meng Wenrui smiled reluctantly, this was his first smile in the past few days.

I can't say much, but at least it's a little energetic.

Ye Luo went downstairs, and the huge castle was empty, saying that it was the Meng family, but in fact they were all people who couldn't be named.

Ye Luo looked around, but still didn't see where Chu Ran was.

I saw Meng Wenrui.

However, in addition to Meng Wenrui, there is also a man in the living room who is more conspicuous.

He was very tall, and his outstanding eyebrows and eyes made it easy to recognize him as a half-race, and those blue eyes made it almost impossible to take your eyes off.

"Sister-in-law."

"Where's Chu Ran?" Meng Wenrui walked over to this side, and Ye Luo asked.

"He's outside. This is my brother, this is Ye Luo, Chu Ran's wife. Meng Wenrui briefly introduced it to Ye Luo.

Ye Luo was looking at the man beside Meng Wenrui, she had always known that Meng Wenrui had an older brother, but she didn't expect his brother to be a mixed-race child, but she didn't know if it was half-sibling or half-sibling.

After a simple greeting, Meng Wenrui pointed in the direction where Chu Ran was.

Meng Wenrui, as the second son of the Meng family, has a lot of people to entertain and a lot of guests to send away, so he wanted to take Ye Luo over, but Ye Luo refused.

Ye Luo walked out of the room only to find that there was a large and excessive garden behind it, and if no one led the way, maybe he would really get lost.

She came yesterday with exhaustion and didn't have time to look at it, and now looking around her and her first impression of this place was too much.

It seems that she still underestimated the wealth of the Meng family.

This kind of castle looks like it is very old, even in Japan, and it is rare to see such a castle.

Like a castle left over from the last century, it looks full of history.

But because the castle seems to have been renovated, it has a sense of alternation between the old and the new.

There is a large lake here.

She walked into it as if she had broken into a secret place.

It's beautiful, but it's hard to find your way out.

"Beautiful lady, are you lost?"

When Ye Luo was looking for his way out in a daze, someone suddenly spoke behind him.

Ye Luo turned his head, and behind him was a gentleman with a cane.

With slightly curly blond hair and a face as perfect as a sculpture, he smiled but with some coldness.

"Yes."

"If you go straight from here, you can get out." The man was very moderate in terms of communication, and he didn't say that he wanted to take Ye Luo out, but just pointed out the way to Ye Luo.

"Thank you." Ye Luo's head fell and left without hesitation.

The man stood in place, looking at Ye Luo's back, to him Ye Luo was like a deer lost here, and when she turned around, her eyes were indeed like a fawn.

Ye Luo could feel that the man's gaze had been on his back, and he knew that his face was indeed too beautiful, but none of this mattered to her.

The important thing is when you will be able to find Chu Ran.

Chu Ran was on another path at this time, and he came back one step ahead of Ye Luo.

"Didn't you and your sister-in-law meet? Didn't she go looking for you? ”

After coming back, hearing Meng Wenrui say this, Chu Ran seemed to think of something and immediately turned his head back.

It's just that when I haven't gone out yet, I ran into Ye Luo who came back.

Before Ye Luo could react, he was held by Chu Ran.

Ye Luo looked at his face puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't run around next time, the Meng family is very big, and it's easy to get lost." Chu Ran's face was still unfazed, and only his hand revealed his nervousness.

Ye Luo nodded: "I know." ”

"Breakfast, it's all ready." Chu Ran took Ye Luo's hand and returned to the hall.

The breakfast inside is very rich, there are foreigners who like to eat, and there are also Chinese-style breakfasts specially prepared for Chu Ran Yeluo.
