Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

Li Manrou has grown into a big girl now, she is sixteen years old. When they first arrived in the north, she was still a child.

A pair of light blue dress makes her look even more bright and charming.

She looked 50% similar to Li Tianze, except that her mouth was red as if dripping blood even without lip balm.

She lowered her head, her cheeks faintly flushed, and she just nodded silently in response to Leng Yuning's words.

Seeing her like this, Leng Yuning wanted to go up and hug her, but he didn't dare. He took a step forward and stopped in front of her.

The nights in the north are not as warm as the days. When a gust of wind blew, Leng Yuning clearly saw Li Manrou shiver.

Leng Yuning took off his coat, draped it over her shoulders, and said reluctantly, "Go back and take care of yourself."

Li Manrou raised her head and looked at him, with indescribable emotions spreading in her eyes.

Suddenly his eyes lit up as if he had made up his mind and said to Leng Yuning, "You should go back too. It's getting late. I'm sure your aunt and the others will be worried."

After saying that, he didn't give Leng Yuning a chance to react and walked away from the house.

Leng Yuning stood there, touching the sachet she had given him, lost in thought for a long time.

"Brother, sister-in-law..." Li Manrou returned to the mansion and did not go back to her own courtyard, but went straight to Li Tianze and their courtyard.

Li Tianze and Leng Youran were not asleep at this time. Hearing the knock on the door, Leng Youran pushed Li Tianze to signal him to open the door.

When Li Tianze opened the door, he saw Li Manrou standing outside, wearing a brown gown.

Li Tianze couldn't help but frown when he saw the long gown.

It doesn't take much thought to know who this coat came from.

Only then did he understand why Leng Yuyang and the others were so repulsive when he had feelings for his wife that day.

Now he finally understood how it felt like his sister was being targeted by a wolf.

"What are you doing here so late?" Perhaps he was feeling resentful, and his tone was a little stiff.

Li Manrou saw that her brother was shivering all over and was subconsciously a little scared. Although they looked very similar, she felt scared every time she saw Li Tianze.

If her mouth wasn't different from his, she felt like she wouldn't dare look in the mirror.

She didn't dare look at him but stretched her head to look inside, "Um, is my sister-in-law asleep?"

"Manrou, I'm not asleep, come in!"

When Li Manrou heard Leng Youran's voice, it was as if she had received a special pardon.

He tilted his head and walked past Li Tianze and went straight into the house.

Leng Youran was sitting on the bed at this time, wearing a coat and waving at her.

When she saw the clothes on Li Manrou, she guessed why Li Tianze's tone was so harsh just now.

The corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up into an imperceptible smile.

Knowing what Li Tianze was thinking, he rolled his eyes at him when he entered the room.

I thought to myself that I was unhappy now because I didn't consider the feelings of my brothers when I was pursuing him relentlessly.

Li Tianze felt her gaze and touched his nose awkwardly.

Not daring to disturb the aunt and sister-in-law, he sat down at the round table in the outer room.

After Li Manrou came in, she kept staring at Leng Youran, and naturally saw what Leng Youran had just done.

Thinking of his brother being humiliated, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which he suppressed with great difficulty.

I thought to myself: Not bad, I knew only my sister-in-law could deal with you.

"Manrou, you come here so late..." Leng Youru didn't say anything else, but his eyes were looking back and forth at her.

Li Manrou seemed to have thought of something, and awkwardly pulled off her coat, saying with a wry smile, "Um, this..."

Leng Youran had an expression that said, "I understand everything." "It's okay, no need to explain. We know. But you came here so late..."

She didn't just want to show them that she was out on a date with Leng Yuning, did she?

The little girl shouldn't have such thoughts.

Li Manrou turned her head to look in the direction of Li Tianze. Li Tianze felt her gaze and adjusted his sitting position.

Seeing her like this, Leng Youran thought she was afraid of her brother, and said to Li Tianze, "Why don't you go out for a walk?"

From Tianze...

Where is he going so late at night?

But since his wife had spoken, he dared not disobey.

He stood up with difficulty, but his feet seemed unable to move and he couldn't take a single step.

Seeing that he was really about to leave, Li Manrou interrupted him, "Sister-in-law, no need. It won't be a problem even if my brother is here." She was still counting on her brother to cover for her!

If I go out, won’t the responsibility fall on my sister-in-law alone?

How is this possible?

Seeing that he didn't have to leave, Li Tianze raised his eyebrows and sat back down.

He pretended to be impatient and said, "Just tell me what you want to say!"

Li Manrou held Leng Yuning's clothes in her hands, her eyes became firmer, and she raised her head, "Brother, sister-in-law, I want to go out and take a look."

Leng Youran didn't say anything. She was actually happy about this. However, Li Manrou was a member of the Li family after all, so she immediately turned her gaze to Li Tianze.

It means you decide.

Li Tianze noticed the obvious intention in her eyes and his expression changed again and again.

She wanted to refuse, but suddenly changed her mind and asked, "You, you want to go out for yourself, or for something else?"

He knew that this was more than he could ask, and looking at the clothes in the little girl's hands he knew why.

Li Manrou lowered her head and said, "I want to go out and take a look, and I also want to..." stay with him.

Although they saw each other every day and their families knew about their relationship, she always felt that something was missing.

She didn't know what was missing.

It always feels too logical.

There's no passion.

"Have you made up your mind? Do you really want to go?" Li Tianze's voice was lukewarm.

"Well, I've thought about it. I want to go outside and take a look."

Li Tianze saw her firm tone and breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright, go if you want to, and come back if you feel uncomfortable."

Come to think of it, my younger sister has been in the north for several years and has never been out. This time is also an opportunity.

Besides, with Leng Yuning here, there is no need to worry about her safety.

"Then sister-in-law..."

"Sure, go ahead. Tomorrow I'll have my brother and the others get you an identity. Just take care of yourself when you get out. As for mom..."

"I'll go talk to her. Manrou has been in the North for so long and hasn't been out. It would be good to let her go out and see the world." Perhaps...

Forget it, maybe.

Leng Yuning is a good person. They are family and she won’t treat her younger sister badly.

If it were someone else, he would probably be even more reluctant.

There's nothing we can do about it. It was him who kidnapped someone else's daughter!

Always be more partial to your own family.

Li Manrou left their yard skipping and dancing. It was obvious that she was very happy and had the lively look of a little girl.

"Look, my little sister is suppressed by you." Leng Youran looked at her leaving back and gave Li Tianze a cold look.
