Chapter Twenty-Four: The Man Who Shouldn't Move
Seeing that the Twilight family and the Wen family are about to form a family and join forces, from now on, there will be no rivals in the entire Cloud City, this duck in the mouth, how can Old Man Mu be willing to fly like this.
"Come here, sit down first," Old Man Mu opened his mouth angrily, and his mood was much more relaxed than just now.
The smile on the corner of Du Xichen's mouth was fleeting, and when he turned around and walked towards Old Man Mu, he reverted to the soft and hard Du Xichen who didn't eat oil and salt.
Old Man Mu glared at Du Xichen fiercely, and said in a cold voice: "If I let Yi Shu fall into the house, you will marry Wen Wanwan and no longer have any more trouble?" Do you mean what you say? β
Compared to letting Yi Shuluo enter the house, his marriage with Wen Wanwan was obviously more important, otherwise Twilight Xichen would not be so sure to bring people back directly.
Du Xichen raised his hand and poured a glass of water for Old Man Mu, and after seeing Old Man Mu take a sip, he eased his expression, and there was a slight smile in his eyes, "Of course I keep the promise." β
Twilight Xichen's ruthlessness at the beginning, and now his gentleness and politeness, Old Man Mu suddenly realized that everything was in Twilight Xichen's calculations, including his reaction and compromise.
"Okay, I promise you, but you remember for me what you promised me at this moment," Du Xichen played a good trick with him without changing his face, if it was placed in the past, Old Man Mu would definitely break his wings, but now, Du Xichen is the future of the entire Mu family, and he can have such the ability to strategize, so he is qualified to be the heir of the Mu family.
Yi Shu fell into the door is just a matter of one more pair of dishes and chopsticks, a wild girl as low as dust, and Old Man Mu never thought that she could make anything big.
"If you don't do what you promised me, I'll let you fuck off with her, and I'll do what I say. Get the hell out of here now, I don't want to see you. Old Man Mu let out a long sigh, and became more and more aware that he was old.
"Okay, grandpa, you have a good rest," Du Xichen nodded at Old Man Mu, turned around and walked out, and after telling the secretary at the door to go in and take care of the old man, Du Xichen went to the refrigerator and took a bottle of ice water and drank it all.
The old man thought that he was using retreat as a means to play, but only Twilight Xichen himself understood that he was gambling, winning the bet, giving Luo Luo a home, and losing the bet, then he would accompany her out to form a family.
When the maid saw him, he said respectfully, "Young Master, Miss Yi has already made arrangements." β
"Okay, I see," Twilight said, putting the water down, nodded, and headed upstairs.
Yi Shuluo returned to his room, only to find that the room had been carefully repaired, originally there was only a small log wardrobe in the room, and the dresser was not needed by Dusk Yixuan, but now all of them have been replaced with new ones.
Even if the maid didn't say anything, Yi Shuluo knew that no one in the Twilight family could help him do this except Twilight Xichen.
Ishoro hadn't packed his bags yet.
Wang Yixue rushed to hear the wind, and as soon as she entered the door, she couldn't help but give Yi Shu a slap, "You little slut, you dare to come back?" β
After Yi Shuluo was kicked out of the Twilight family last time, although Wang Yixue was not kicked out, she was inevitably implicated, and now she is not as good as a day in the Twilight family, and the position that has been accumulated and stabilized over the years has been turned into a disaster, how can she not be angry.
Yi Shuluo was caught off guard by the beating, covered his face, resisted the urge to fight back, and said with a cold expression, "Wang Yixue, don't go too far, it was Du Xichen who forced me to come back, otherwise do you think I would like to see you again?" If you mess with me again in the future, don't blame me for being rude. β
Yi Shuluo's ruthless eyes made Wang Yixue's body stagnate for a few seconds, although Yi Shuluo used to look tough and stubborn, but he had never had such an aggressive and ruthless look, which made Wang Yixue wonder if she really dared to fight back.
At that moment, Wang Yixue's momentum weakened a little, but she still relied on her understanding of Yi Shuluo, and said fiercely: "I tell you Yi Shuluo, no matter who brings you back, no one in this Twilight family will welcome you, I warned you, what will be the consequences of you in the Mu family in the future." β
"What consequences? I'd like to hear about it. β
Twilight Xichen didn't know when he appeared at the door, and he looked like he was leaning against the door, as if he had been here for a while.
Wang Yixue saw that Du Xichen immediately lost her anger just now, she straightened her bangs, pretended to be gentle and said, "What consequences?" There were no consequences, and I was happy that I was back. β
"Luoluo is also called by you, get out, if I see you enter Luoluo's room again, don't blame me for being unkind."
Obviously, Twilight Xichen heard what the two of them said, Wang Yixue didn't struggle anymore, secretly glared at Yi Shuluo, and turned to leave.
Yi Shuluo covered her face and didn't look up, she didn't need to look in the mirror to know that she must be red, swollen and ugly, in the Mu family, such a daily life is not strange to her.
"She won't dare to come back in the future."
Twilight hadn't noticed the marks on Yi Shuluo's face at this time, and thought that the two of them had just quarreled a few words.
After a while, seeing that Yi Shuluo had been covering his face, Du Xichen realized that something was wrong, his eyes sank, and he grabbed Yi Shuluo's hand violently, and saw the redness and swelling on his face.
"Wang Yixue hit?"
Yi Shuluo sighed lightly, "Didn't you see it all?" What's more? That's what I'm going to face every day when I return to the Twilight family? Are you satisfied? β
Twilight pursed her lips without explanation, and asked the maid to bring an ice pack, and he held the ice pack to help Yi Shuluo's face, but she resolutely avoided it.
Twilight could only hold the person down with force and put an ice pack on her face, and because of this, the distance between the two was so close that even the sound of breathing could be heard.
"You let me go, I'll just cool myself down."
In Twilight Xichen's villa, he can do whatever he wants, but this is Twilight's house, and even if Twilight Xichen's status is high, there is the pressure of Old Man Mu, and Yi Shuluo doesn't want to cause trouble.
"Good, I'll help you."
Whenever Yi Shuluo was disobedient, Twilight Xichen used the same tone and said almost gentle words, making it impossible to resist.
Seeing that she was no longer struggling, the haze in her eyes dissipated, and she said with a little guilt, "When I came just now, I saw that she was not close to you, and I didn't expect her to do it, if I knew that she beat you, I wouldn't let her go back easily, Luoluo, grandpa has promised to let you stay, you are here, no one can bully you with me." β
Yi Shuluo turned around abruptly, looking at Du Xichen's eyes full of mockery, "What about Wen Tingting?" I told you what was in my heart in front of everyone, and the Wen family heard every word in their ears, the reason why grandpa kicked me out was also to calm the anger of the Wen family, but now you took me back like this, if you let the Wen family know, I want to ask, how do you end up, young master? β
Sharp and aggressive, he was completely different from the previous Ishuro, and all this change was due to him.
Twilight sat up, but her hand was still on the ice pack, "It's my business, it's none of your business, you just stay here, I can see it every day, and you don't have to worry about the rest." β
"I said, I'm not a toy, I'm not an ornament, I'm not an antique vase, what the hell do you mean, you have a fiancΓ©e now, don't tell me you want to continue to be a brother and sister with me," Yi Shuluo almost roared, she wanted a new life, she didn't want to be a puppet again, it was because she trapped herself here before, and now it was Twilight Xichen who forced her to be trapped here.
The former Twilight had never made it clear, and Yi Shuluo didn't dare to be sentimental anymore, but now Twilight had said it, but she didn't need it anymore, and she didn't want it anymore.
"Luoluo, I'll say it again at the end, you be good, stay by my side, Yan Hanxiao will be fine, if you continue like this, it's hard for me to guarantee that she will have a foothold in the Yan family, you are tired, take a good rest, I'll go out first."
Yan Hanxiao is the only person she values now, how strong Du Xichen's wrist is, she knows better than anyone else, she really doesn't want to have no one around her.
After Twilight closed the door, Yi Shu burst into tears, she sat down weakly, and threw the ice pack in her hand on the table, thinking that she would never cry easily again, but once she met Twilight, the many defenses she had set for her soul were completely useless.
Du Xichen returned to his room, unloaded the coldness just now, thinking about Yi Shuluo's red and swollen cheeks just now, he took out his mobile phone and made a call, asking someone to cut off Wang Yixue's source of money.
After doing this, Twilight sighed tiredly, threw his phone on the sofa, but walked to the bookshelf himself, and looked at the summer vacation cigarette for a moment, he hadn't smoked in a long time.
Slender fingers picked up the cigarette case, took one out of it, put the cigarette in his mouth, walked to the window, picked up the fire gas and lit it, the green smoke slowly rose, covering his deep eyes full of solemnity.
Luoluo will wait for me for a while, what you want to hear, what you want, I can give it to you.
Early the next morning, Yi Shuluo got up, because she had cried yesterday, her eyes were red and swollen at this time, she looked at herself in the mirror for a moment, and splashed cold water on her face.
The rules of the Mu family are that as long as the people in the old house have breakfast with the old man Mu in the hall, they don't want to see Yi Shuluo, Yi Shuluo asked himself that he was not interested in being with them, and he had indigestion, so he directly told the employer that he was uncomfortable and didn't eat breakfast.
In the hall on the first floor, everyone sat at the dinner table, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very strange.
Old Man Mu sat in the first place, wearing glasses and reading the newspaper.
Twilight came in the morning, buttoned up his sleeves, and glanced at the dining table, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see, and he couldn't help but pause, "What about Luoluo?" β
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became even more strange, and everyone either lowered their heads or secretly looked at Twilight, but no one spoke.
The maid stepped forward with some hesitation, "Young Master, Miss Shu said that she was not feeling well and would not eat breakfast." β
"Oh? Under the weather? I'll take a look. Twilight's footsteps turned and he wanted to go upstairs.
Old Man Mu put down the newspaper suddenly, "You sit down for me." β
