Suddenly there was no sound, and Wu Tongxue couldn't help but glance at him first.

He met Zhao Ya's smiling eyes.

Her face flushed red instantly.

Unable to resist raising his voice, he exclaimed, "Branwen!"

What kind of look is that? It made his heart race instantly.

To Zhao Ya, it sounded like a coquettish retort: ​​"Yes, I'm here."

"You're bullying me again!" Wu Tongxue didn't care; it was all his fault anyway, who told him to be so infuriating.

"So, how does Sweetheart plan to punish me?" Zhao Ya seemed to radiate an aura of being easy to bully, like a spineless coward.

Seems like you're actually looking forward to it?

"Don't be angry, it's all my fault. It's not worth getting angry," Zhao Ya said. "When we get home, you can do whatever you want with me. Are you satisfied now?"

He showed 200% sincerity.

As soon as Zhao Yayi gave in, Wu Tongxue's attitude softened as well, "Then let me think about it."

Soon, I got home.

As soon as Zhao Wuji got out of the car, he turned around and saw Zhao Ya looking very happy.

He patted him on the shoulder at the door and said, "You've worked hard. Go home and get some rest."

"Sweetheart, how was your day?"

Wu Tongxue followed Zhao Wuji, beaming, and talked about the interesting things that happened that day.

They entered the room chatting and laughing, and Zhao Ya, who had fallen behind the two of them, followed slowly with one hand in his pocket.

Back in her room, Wu Tongxue took out her phone and, sure enough, there was a message from Li Nanyuan.

Li Nanyuan: Are you home yet?

The time displayed is from a few minutes ago.

Wu Tongxue: We've arrived! How about you?

Li Nanyuan arrived home earlier than them. After the driver left, he went into the house alone, and the lights came on in the dark house.

I entered the quiet room and went straight to the study without lingering.

I wanted to distract myself by dealing with some company matters, but after opening the file for a long time, I could only flip through a few pages.

I simply went to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at the brilliant lights.

I feel irritable.

It's too deserted, too quiet.

I used to be used to it and didn't think much of it, but after experiencing the excitement, I started to miss it.

He pulled a pack of cigarettes from his desk drawer, sat down on the black leather sofa in front of the French windows, and looked uneasy.

He unbuttoned two shirt buttons, crossed his legs, and the atmosphere became inexplicably somber.

A cigarette is held between my fingers, the second hand slowly ticks by, but the room seems to be frozen in time.

Li Nanyuan was processing his emotions.

In the past, he would occasionally smoke when he was under a lot of stress, as nicotine could relieve some of the pressure.

However, he hasn't smoked for a long time since he completely took control of the Li family.

The butler would also keep a bag of it in his study.

Perhaps out of panic and worry, he firmly believed in his feelings for Wu Tongxue and was certain that she liked him.

But how much more important is this affection compared to another bond that has lasted since childhood?

He was unsure at that moment.

If he were to be abandoned... Li Nanyuan's eyes darkened, a sinister glint flashing across them.

He was certain that he could never let go.

They'll stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

"Ling ring ring~"

Upon seeing that Li Nanyuan had returned home, Wu Tongxue immediately made a video call to him.

His brother's situation has been temporarily resolved, but there's still Li Nanyuan's side to deal with.

Yes, we must treat everyone equally.

Li Nanyuan paused, picked up his phone, and casually placed the cigarette between his fingers on the small table next to him.

My finger landed directly on the green answer button.

"It's so dark over there!" Wu Tongxue almost couldn't see Li Nanyuan's face clearly and urged, "Turn on a light, Li Nanyuan, I can't see your face."

Li Nanyuan was in a bad mood, so he turned on the night light mode, which was dim and barely illuminated the furnishings in the room.

Upon hearing this, he stood up.

"Are you looking at the night view?" As he walked, Wu Tongxue saw the view outside his floor-to-ceiling window and also noticed a pack of cigarettes left on the sofa.

The volume increased, "You're smoking!"

It was more like surprise and curiosity.

Li Nanyuan immediately put it away, saying, "I didn't smoke it."

"Oh~" Her gaze was still on his hand, as if she was still thinking about the cigarette.

Li Nanyuan frowned slightly, afraid that he might become interested in this, and quickly changed the subject, "Are you tired today?"

Wu Tongxue shook her head, "I'm not tired, I didn't do anything."

What kind of cigarettes do you smoke?

Why are you still thinking about it?

Li Nanyuan: "I didn't smoke, I'm not lying to you."

Wu Tongxue asked curiously, "I've never seen you smoke before."

No one around him smoked in front of him. Secondhand smoke is harmful to health, and Zhao Wuji valued his health very much and paid special attention to this aspect.

Li Nanyuan felt that taking the cigarettes today was a huge mistake.

"Smoking increases the risk of cancer and is detrimental to health."

Wu Tongxue found a cushion, propped her chin up, and lay down on the sofa, losing interest. "Then don't smoke anymore, it's very uncomfortable to be sick."

"it is good."

Let's move on from this topic.

Her arms were getting tired, so Wu Tongxue rolled over and changed her position, her eyes sparkling with tiny starlight, bright and dazzling, "You look super handsome today!"

"Luckily I took a picture. You can send it to me and we can post it on WeChat Moments together later."

There are photos of food, individual photos, and couple photos, most of which are of the two of them, as well as photos of the birthday celebrant.

"I took a lot of pictures, what do you think of these few I picked?"

Li Nanyuan's expression softened. "Everything is fine."

"I'll post it first, and you remember to change the caption." Wu Tongxue recalled Li Nanyuan's previous style of WeChat Moments, which was uniformly business-like and simple, while the pictures she took were flashy and gaudy.

"Alright, just make the changes as I suggested, but don't make them too abrupt, and remember to add emoticons."

Li Nanyuan opened the emoticon on the keyboard, paused for two seconds, and finally chose one that was more in line with his age.

Wu Tongxue: I got to eat at the 18th birthday party today, so happy! (*^▽^*)?? [Nine-grid image]

Li Nanyuan: It's an honor to attend Mr. Song Mingxuan's birthday party with my boyfriend (*^_^*) [Nine-square grid]

The two posts on WeChat Moments were published within a minute of each other.

Today, Song Mingyu and others who added Wu Tongxue saw the post, and they were all very free, commenting below.

Song Mingyu gave everyone a thumbs up and posted a thumbs-up emoji in the comments section.

Wanted criminal: You all give them out, so I'll give them out too!

A bamboo leaf: Look at this birthday celebrant, the handsome face in the middle is captured so clearly.

Should I go to sea? My sister-in-law's photography skills are amazing! She captured a beautifully blurred atmosphere in Li Ge's photos. [Thumbs up]

AAA Underwear Wholesaler: Wishing you a long and happy marriage! [roses][roses]

Wu Tongxue replied to Li Nanyuan's post on WeChat Moments with a thank you message for their blessings, adding that she had also added him in the contacts today.

The birthday celebrant himself also chimed in, and Wu Tongxue replied to him in the comments section.

Li Nanyuan also replied to Wu Tongxue's post with a thank you comment for the birthday wishes, and also wished Song Mingxuan a happy birthday in the comments section.

Song Mingxuan held his phone, trying his best not to look miserable.

Song Mingxuan replied to Wu Tongxue: Thank you!

Song Mingxuan replied to Li Nanyuan: Thank you, Brother Li [handshake]

Li Nanyuan's last post on WeChat Moments was about attending the opening ceremony of a partner's resort hotel. He used official language and included a picture of the event taken by his assistant, making it look like an official account.

Song Mingxuan flipped through the pages again and again, becoming even more discouraged.

The birthday boy wasn't happy at all; he fell in love at first sight and then got dumped.

Good news, I've found my first love.

In the comments section of his own WeChat Moments post, Song Mingxuan replied to Song Mingyu: [Strong smile]
