Chapter 107: You Should Call Me Brother
Ming Yin was stunned.
The original intention of saying this was to distance herself from Chi Xiao without looking too rude.
It's not that Ming Yin doesn't dare, but she knows in her heart that the more she is involved with Chi Xiao, the more unfavorable she will be when he discovers his identity in the future.
So even if Chi Xiao helped them, Ming Yin couldn't thank him from the bottom of his heart.
Just as she is cold-blooded, no one wants to take the initiative to cause trouble for herself.
What's more, Zhou Yun was pregnant with Chi Xiao's child, but Ming Yin didn't dare to forget it at all.
No matter where her relationship with Chi Xiao goes in the future, this child will always be a thorn in the middle of them, so that they can no longer treat each other frankly and calmly.
Therefore, it is the best choice to completely disconnect when it is time to disconnect.
But Mingyin didn't expect that Chi Xiao would really ask her for a thank you gift.
This surprised her, but when she saw Chi Xiao's grim face and gloomy eyes, she understood that he was angry because of his attitude.
So, what kind of thank you gift should he give?
Soon, Mingyin thought about it.
"Please Mr. Chi go to the front hall and wait, and I'll go get a thank you gift."
After Ming Yin finished speaking, she passed by Chi Xiao, and then turned around and walked towards the warehouse.
Chi Xiao was already laughing angrily at her, Ming Yin really couldn't see that she was angry, or was she continuing to pretend to be stupid?
However, it was not interesting to stay alone in the backyard, so Chi Xiao walked out of the room and walked towards the front hall.
In the yard, he saw a boy playing in the corner.
He remembered that this seemed to be Ming Yin's younger brother, named Fan Fan.
Ming Yin treasured him very much, and couldn't bear to let him be hurt in the slightest, but the appearance of the two was very different, and at a glance, he knew that he was definitely not a brother and sister.
Unconsciously, Chi Xiao had already walked to Fan Fan's side.
Fan Fan looked up and saw the tall and strong Chi Xiao, he was startled at first, and later found out that it was the man who often came to find his sister, so he was not afraid.
"Hello uncle!"
Chi Xiao was stunned, his name is Sister Mingyin, how can he call himself uncle?
How can this generation be so bad!
He frowned, and squeezed out the few patience to teach Fan Fan: "Your sister and I are friends, you should call me brother, not uncle." ”
Fan Fan blinked his innocent big eyes, and said unscrupulously: "Although my uncle is very handsome, but you are dressed very maturely, I don't think there is any problem in calling you uncle!" ”
Chi Xiao's mouth was dry suddenly, at least one thing about the two sisters and brothers was really similar, they were the same stubborn.
No matter what others say, always stick to your opinions.
"No matter how mature I dress, you should call me brother."
Fan Fan pouted, "What's wrong with uncle?" You're one level higher than my sister and me......"
When Ming Yin came out of the storeroom, she heard such a witty conversation.
She couldn't help laughing, she didn't expect that a person who was as arrogant as a pond owl, such a person who was not contaminated with the fireworks in the world, would actually have a lot of trouble with a child?
It's really a great insight for her.
"Fanfan, listen to this gentleman, he is indeed a friend of my sister, called brother."
Ming Yin spoke at the right time, and when she heard her sister's command, Fan Fan changed her reluctant attitude just now, and immediately called her brother obediently and cutely.
The attitude is a world of difference compared to before.
Chi Xiao turned around and saw Ming Yin with a shallow smile on her face, and when she looked at Fan Fan, there was real tenderness in her eyes, which was completely different from her usual alienation and indifference.
It turns out that Mingyin doesn't show her soft belly, but only does it to people she trusts and cares about.
Seeing that Fan Fan ran away to play, Ming Yin remembered that there was a pond owl in the yard, and sure enough, he found that his eyes were looking at him deeply, with an inquiring expression.
It was like a delicate and slippery worm that slowly climbed up its back, Mingyin's back was sticky with sweat, but she could only pretend to be indifferent on her face, and presented a thank you gift to Chi Xiao with both hands.
"A little gift, please Mr. Chi smile, but don't dislike it."
Chi Xiao lowered his head, and Ming Yin was holding a delicate wooden box in his hand, and an ivory bone fan was lying quietly inside.
"This ivory bone fan is a treasure handed down from the Qing Dynasty, and I myself do not approve of hunting ivory, but this is something that has been handed down since ancient times, and our descendants obviously have no other use than to treasure it."
Chi Xiao took out the bone fan from the box, there were a total of 18 ivory bones, white as jade, and even the tentacles were warm, and each one had a relief on it.
Eighteen ivory bones are connected together to create a complete story, vivid and wonderful.
"This ivory bone fan is really good, I have never seen such a whimsical and well-made bone fan."
Chi Xiao praised without hesitation, compared to the phoenix that Zhou Wan had asked for before, he felt that this bone fan was obviously more valuable.
Ming Yin smiled, and a trace of loss crossed her eyes.
"Chinese culture has been precipitated for tens of millions of years, with a long history, endlessly, and the treasures left behind are countless, in the former Taihe Xuan, there are not a few collections like ivory bone fans."
"It's a pity that a fire destroyed everything, and now all we can do is to revive the glory of Taihexuan in the past. But at least for now, we haven't. ”
Chi Xiao could see the loneliness in Ming Yin's eyes, and from her words, it could probably be judged that the relationship between her and Taihe Xuan was definitely closer than she imagined.
But it seems like a long time ago no secret to them.
"This day will always come, Miss Ming doesn't have to worry too much."
Ming Yin nodded and sent Chi Xiao away.
Soon, An Xin came back, she returned with a full load, her eyes were full of joy and excitement, she finally found the relics left by her parents, how could she not be happy?
"Yin Yin, look, I brought these things back, and from now on they will be mine alone. I finally have my parents' stuff and I will never be able to sleep at night again! ”
An Xin said excitedly, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, Zhang Xutao asked me to ask you when I came back. Where are you going to tell him where the bullet was installed? ”
Ming Yin hooked her lips, "Where is there any fried. Bomb, it shouldn't be his own imagination, right? ”
An Xin was stunned for a moment, and soon understood what Ming Yin meant, and also showed a wicked smile.
"Yes, it is estimated that he came up with it, so don't care about him, let him be anxious for a few days."
An Xin leaned over, directly touched his parents' relics, and thanked him in a low voice: "Although I didn't get the most important news, I am also very happy to be able to find my parents' relics." What about Chi Xiao, is he still there? I'll treat you to dinner tonight! ”
Ming Yin shook her head, "You can just invite me, and he's gone." ”
"Gone!" An Xin was a little surprised, "He came here for you, so easy to leave?" ”
