I was spotted by the heroines while doing the quick-travel mission.

"Why should I listen to you?" Yuan Li looked aloof and continued to chew the apple with his head tilted to one side. Even though the apple had no taste for him, he felt inexplicably relieved when he saw Wen Yu like that.

Wen Yu became annoyed when he saw that he was not listening, so he went back and locked the door, walked to the wall and picked up the "family law" on the table, a black wooden stick with a knot. When Yuan Li saw this, he thought of the tragic fight between the two that night, and subconsciously jumped away from the altar, raised his hands and backed away.

"Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, I'm coming down." It's not that it hurts when he's hit by the stick, but Huan Wenyu's crazy look is too scary. His reckless eyes are red and he wants to kill himself and him together with his excessive reaction, which makes him feel a bad sense of crisis.

"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to pay the price. Get out." Wen Yu opened the door and poked him in the waist with a stick to drive him out when he saw that it worked. Then he put the things back and started to tidy up the messy offering table. He and Yuan Li picked out the mixed offerings, and after they kowtowed and bowed, they left the ancestral hall and closed the door.

Yuanli was kicked out and bit the apple a few times to vent his anger, then threw the messy core and rolled it into the grass beside the rockery and disappeared. When he saw Wenyu open the door, he wiped his sticky hands and approached, ready to act coquettishly to get away with it, but Wenyu didn't even look at him, stretched out his hand and pulled his collar from behind to pull him off.

"Yuanli, this is my home. If you want to come, stop causing trouble." He warned sternly.

Yuanli blinked her eyes and deliberately misinterpreted his words, "Can you come here as you please without causing any trouble?"

"..."

In the silent atmosphere, the sounds around are particularly amplified.

"No."

"Oh."

He knew that it would not be so easy to get away with it, so he turned around and continued to wander around. Those past memories were only limited to Wen Yu's room. Yuanli had never seriously visited this huge manor.

Wen Yu looked at his back, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

……

"Mr. Rothschild, how is my child?" The beautiful woman hugged the little boy worriedly and asked in a soft voice.

The child had a distant and indifferent look in his eyes, and he just sat quietly in his mother's arms, like a porcelain doll.

"Don't worry, ma'am. Can you let me talk to him for a minute?"

The woman looked a little worried. She lowered her head and talked to the child for a while. Then she stood up with him reluctantly, put him back on the sofa, and left the reception room, looking back every few steps.

Luo Yan stood up to close the curtains. The child stiffly maintained the same posture as when his mother put him down, staring straight ahead. Luo Yan walked to his side and squatted down. He gently lifted the hair covering his eyes, turned on the flashlight, and saw a barely perceptible hint of red in his pupils. Luo Yan understood what was happening. The familiar operation happening again made him feel a little uneasy, but it was also expected.

Something that could be solved with a little trick was actually used as an excuse to make him travel thousands of miles. Luo Yan felt inexplicably annoyed and snapped his fingers lightly in the child's ear. His dilated pupils gradually focused and his numb face finally showed some spirit, but not much. He appropriately unleashed some spells to awaken his self-consciousness, otherwise his slow recovery later would be too abrupt.

"Madam." Yuanli sat with the little boy for about an hour before opening the door.

The woman who had been pacing anxiously came forward, clasped her hands tightly against her chest, and asked anxiously, "Is my child okay, Mr. Rothschild?"

"His reaction is just a little slow, perhaps due to some stress in life. He will gradually recover with growth. Family members need to spend more time with him and let him interact more with people of his age. It's not a big problem." Luo Yan made up a suitable excuse to get away with it, then bent down and picked up the suitcase on the ground.

"I have something urgent to do and need to catch a plane. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions."

Luo Yan didn't even have time to listen to her sincere thanks and hurriedly left the manor.

At this time, the Mid-Autumn Festival in China had passed. Wen Yu left Shuchuan the day before going to work, and Yuan Li naturally went with him. As soon as he left the manor, the eyes of the people who saw him off returned to his original state, and he leaned on Wen Yu like a boneless person.

"Being a child is so troublesome. I can't do anything I want to do." Yuan Li seemed to be complaining but his tone was ambiguous. Wen Yu glanced at him sideways and then shrugged his shoulders to shake off his hand. "If you don't like it, just stay alone. I didn't ask you to come with me."

……

Wen Yu's words successfully silenced the audience. It was already late at night when the two returned to Kyoto. Luo Yan, who had got off the plane long ago, had been waiting at the airport for a long time. He saw Wen Yu was happy from afar, but when he turned his head and saw Yuan Li next to him, his face suddenly turned cold.

"You are really haunted."

Luo Yan reached out and snatched Wen Yu's luggage from him. Thinking of the deal reached at the dance, he didn't make things difficult. He just reached out and grabbed Wen Yu's wrist and pulled him towards him.

"You're not bad either." Yuan Li saw Wen Yu being dragged away, and tried to stop him but he just followed him away without even looking back. He stood there in a daze for a moment, and quickly caught up, locking the car door before they got in.

"It's too late. Can I go back with you and stay for a while?" Yuanli said with a smile, his eyes curved, in what he thought was a very handsome and eye-catching posture.

"Don't you have your own home?" Luo Yan sarcastically said without mercy. Even if they reached an agreement, he still had no good feelings towards this playboy.

But he forgot that before this, they were just bad friends and none of them were good people.

"How funny! I'm not asking you." Yuan Li rolled his eyes and without waiting for Wen Yu to refuse, he got into the car and sat next to Wen Yu, looking like he was determined to stay.

Luo Yan was sitting in the driver's seat, and the steering wheel was about to break. Fortunately, he was not the only one who hated Yuan Li in this narrow space. Luo Yan had returned, so he naturally had no leverage over Wen Yu, so as soon as Yuan Li sat down, Wen Yu bent over to open the door and chased him out.

Luo Yan drove away. A gust of wind blew up the fallen leaves, leaving Yuanli alone facing the lonely night and the empty streets. He was so angry that he punched the air and returned to the house he had bought here in dejection.

The two were not far from each other, and if they were lucky they could meet on the road. Yuanli yawned as he walked home, and when he passed by Wen Yu's house he did not forget to stop in front of the door, briefly speculating on what the two were doing. When the imagined scenes gradually ceased to be acceptable, he left angrily and returned to his own nest.

The next day, work life began again. Just as Yuanli had expected, Luo Yan even deliberately left some conspicuous traces, intentionally or unintentionally showing off his location. He was looking forward to what expression Yuanli would show when he found out, and the anger he felt when he thought of his angry look was swept away.
