Chapter 543 My brother doesn’t seem to be the same (1)
In a private room of a certain restaurant, several young men were sitting together, chatting and laughing, and it was obvious that they were very familiar with each other.
"Brother Xun, I haven't seen you for so long. Let me pay you a tribute." The man in a silver-gray suit raised his glass in the direction of Yi Xun.
Yi Xun took off his suit jacket at this time, and unbuttoned two buttons on the collar of his shirt, revealing his slender neck and a small delicate collarbone. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, giving him a rare loose and lazy temperament.
He also raised the wine glass in front of him and gestured to the man who was toasting him. Then he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one sip. His beautiful Adam's apple rolled up and down, and the wine fell into his throat.
"It's been a long time since we brothers got together like this. The last time Brother Xun and I sat down for dinner was a business dinner. I watched Brother Xun win that contract easily. I was so jealous."
Yi Xun smiled lazily and said, "You're not even close."
The crowd burst into laughter.
While everyone was chatting, Yi Xun's cell phone suddenly rang. He lowered his eyes. Although he didn't note the name of the caller, the string of numbers appeared so frequently during this period that it was difficult for him to remember it.
It was Yun Qian's call.
Yi Xun picked up the phone and stood up. The people present said, "Go out and take a call."
After the call was connected, the little girl's cheerful voice soon came from the other side: "Brother."
"Ah."
"What's the matter?" Yi Xun asked.
"I just saw you in the mall, but I wasn't sure, so I called to ask."
Yi Xun: "......"
I don't know why, but Yi Xun is inexplicably sure that Yun Qian must have recognized him.
Yun Qian was squatting in a place, playing with the short cleaning robot in the mall.
The cleaning robot looked dumb and did not move away when it touched Yun Qian's feet.
Yun Qian waited for the response from the person on the other end of the phone. The robot at his feet suddenly spoke: "Garbage, garbage."
Yun Qian: "...?"
The robot's voice was not quiet, so Yi Xun on the other end of the phone heard it clearly, and he could still imagine the little girl's inexplicably deflated expression.
Sure enough, the girl's shocked and aggrieved voice came from over there: "Brother, the robot can even scold me."
The corners of Yi Xun's mouth curled up slightly. He took a few steps and suddenly saw a small figure squatting in the corner not far away with his back to him.
Even the back is full of depression.
Yun Qian didn't wait for Yi Xun's comfort, but first waited for Yi Xun's question: "That person hiding in the corner like a depressed mushroom."
"It's you?"
"...!!"
Yun Qian suddenly turned around and saw Yi Xun standing not far away, with an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Yun Qian: "..."
Yun Qian whispered: "You are the mushroom."
"What did you say?" Yi Xun had hung up the phone and walked closer, but still didn't hear what Yun Qian muttered.
Yun Qian shook her head quickly, and the smile on her face gradually brightened: "It's nothing."
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and my brother is handsome again."
"........."
Why is Yi Xun so disbelieving?
There was no one around Yun Qian, so Yi Xun simply asked: "You came alone?"
The girl shook her head, "I came with my friends."
"Well, when you're done shopping, go back early before it's too late." Yi Xun's tone of voice showed the concern of an ordinary elder for his junior.
Actually, that's not necessarily the case. It was probably because of the previous few interactions that Yi Xun really cared about Yun Qian like a brother or a sister, but only to a certain extent.
Yun Qian sometimes sends text messages to Yi Xun, but Yi Xun mostly doesn't reply. Except for the occasional phone call, she really can't find any reason to call Yi Xun.
Yun Qian stood up straight and handed the thing he was carrying to Yi Xun: "Brother, I just saw you going in with some people. I think you are going to drink."
"This is a hangover medicine I bought at the drugstore in the mall. It should work very quickly. If you drink too much, you can take one pill."
Yi Xun's eyes fell on the hangover medicine in Yun Qian's hand, and he felt a little dazed. Then he slowly raised his head.
As if she was afraid that Yi Xun would refuse, Yun Qian immediately said: "You can't waste my kindness, it also costs money."
Yi Xun felt a little dumbfounded.
The hangover medicine finally reached Yi Xun's hands. Yi Xun lowered his eyes and looked at Yun Qian: "...Thank you."
"You're welcome," Yun Qian waved her hand, "But if you insist on thanking you, I won't accept it."
"For example, you can stay at my brother's house tonight..."
Yi Xun raised his eyebrows. He couldn't understand the girl's little thoughts. He said, "It's a beautiful idea."
Yun Qian's face fell instantly.
"Okay, I'm going back first, and you should go back to the manor early." Yi Xun said.
Yun Qian nodded wilfully, like a cabbage beaten by frost.
It's just that Yun Qian is not the well-behaved type to begin with, and Yi Xun doesn't agree, so she will kill him first and then show off.
.........
Yi Xun and his friends had a party until eight or nine in the evening. Even if he didn't drink much, it was inevitable that he would be tainted with the smell of alcohol from the dinner.
The driver drove the car quietly, and Yi Xun sat in the back seat with his eyes closed to relax.
The driver drove the car into the yard, and when the car lights flashed over, he first saw the small figure sitting at the door.
"Sir, there is a person sitting at the door. Could it be a thief?" Because the car was parked in a different position, the car lights could not illuminate the figure sitting at the door, only a blurry shadow.
Yi Xun frowned and opened his eyes, then glanced outside solemnly, "Go down and take a look."
Yi Xun put his suit jacket on his arms. His hair was a little scattered on his forehead. He took long steps with his long legs and walked to the door in a short while.
Then I saw a little girl sleeping drowsily holding a doll bigger than her head, her head nodding like she was fishing.
"........."
It was indeed a fish that slipped through the net.
Yi Xun stood for a moment, then whispered to Yun Qian: "Yun Qian, wake up."
Fortunately, Yun Qian was not in a deep sleep. After calling her, she opened her eyes drowsily. Yun Qian rubbed her eyes and raised her head: "Brother?"
"You came back so slowly."
Yi Xun twitched the corner of his mouth, and now he still blamed him.
"Didn't I ask you to go back to the manor?" Yi Xun asked lightly.
Yun Qian is now in a state that is neither too confused nor too sober. He can tell the truth about anything: "I just want to come to my brother's place."
"If you don't agree, I can only kill you first and then show you the consequences. You can't drive me away with a broom..."
Yi Xun felt like he was about to laugh out loud, he just felt that the little girl was really brave.
Unlike the usual obedient person in front of the Yi family, in front of him, he looked like a little tiger that had not yet fully grown its deciduous teeth.
Yi Xun even wondered if he was usually too good-tempered.
If they knew that Yi Xun thought this way, his men would probably cry.
