For a long time, no one said anything behind him. Ye Gu felt something was wrong, turned around, and saw Luo Yang looking at him calmly.
Luo Yang smiled, "Who made the young master so angry?"
She rarely had the habit of making fun of others, but Ye Gu was an exception. His reaction always made Luo Yang feel funny.
Ye Gu frowned, feeling a little guilty and speaking forcefully. He handed over the phone to Luo Yang without looking at him.
"Here, I accidentally saw that a younger brother sent you a message."
At the end, he added another sentence: "It wasn't intentional."
Luo Yang looked at him, laughing in his heart. He didn't look at his phone and deliberately asked: "Brother? I don't have any younger brother."
Ye Gu: "..." I have never seen her so blind before.
"Maybe it's because you have too many younger brothers to remember." Ye Gu slowly stood down from the display cabinet, rolled up his cuffs, and placed the black cufflinks on the display cabinet.
Hearing what he said, Luo Yang just chuckled, then returned to normal and followed him.
"Well, what you said makes sense. There are so many people that I really can't remember clearly. It seems that I need to get familiar with it again later."
When Li Ma went upstairs to deliver fruits, she heard the door of the cloakroom being slammed shut. She was startled and slowly stroked her chest: "What's going on..."
Inside the door, Luo Yang was pressed against the door with both hands.
She was calm, her eyelashes trembled slightly, but her voice remained steady.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Gu came close to her ear and gritted his teeth: "What do you think happened to me?"
She always had the ability to ignite him with one move, that was before and still is now.
She just smiled and turned her head away.
"He is just a former student of Ms. Yang. That's all. You should understand that if I were with him, I wouldn't be here now."
Ye Gu sneered lightly, now he looked like a big man with a small belly.
But he was angry, so he couldn't calm down, and his temper inevitably rose, but he was still patient with her.
"But now that you are married, you should try your best to keep distance from people who have more than pure thoughts about you, do you understand?"
Luo Yang took a deep breath, "Understood."
"Can that be done?" Ye Gu's eyes fell on her mobile phone.
Luo Yang didn't argue with him, just nodded: "Okay."
Finally, he let go of her hand, and the faint finger marks on her wrist bones slowly dissipated as his movements relaxed.
Luo Yang didn't leave immediately, he just laughed and looked at the pattern of a rose on the carpet in trance. After a few seconds, he murmured: "Then you can do the same..."
Will you keep distance from others...
Ye Gu didn't hear clearly, "What?"
Luo Yang recovered quickly and shook his head, "It's nothing, don't think too much, go take a shower."
Tonight's episode made both of them have their own concerns. They stayed sleepless all night. It was rare for Luo Yang to wake up earlier than Ye Gu in the morning. When he came downstairs, Li Ma was making breakfast.
Luo Yang looked at the beautiful sunshine outside and decided on a whim to go for a morning jog.
In fact, she is not a person who likes sports, but she often suffered from insomnia during those years abroad. The doctor did not give her sleeping pills, and she drank coffee until she was immune. There was no other way. Luo Yang could only rely on exercise to consume her energy to force herself to sleep. state.
In severe cases, I couldn't even sleep for three days.
///
The person on the bed turned sideways and hugged him. He opened his eyes in a hazy state, but there was no one around him. For a moment, he thought he had woken up from his dream, and Ye Gu suddenly sat up.
After waiting for a long time, he looked at Luo Yang's water glass and lipstick on the table, and then he was sure that he was not dreaming and that she was still there.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he gradually opened them, his eyes became clear again.
Downstairs——
Mother Li brought him breakfast and learned that Luo Yang had gone out for a morning jog.
"Young master, you don't have to get up so early every day. It's okay to sleep in occasionally. Don't be so harsh on yourself."
Ma Li said sincerely that since the two children got married, Ye Gu was always the first to wake up in the family. Even if it was later, he would always wake up with Luo Yang. It had never been like this.
Ye Gu murmured, "I'm afraid I'm dreaming..." Then he smiled vaguely, "It's okay, Ma Li, I'm used to getting up early, there's nothing harsh about it."
After breakfast, seeing that Luo Yang hadn't come back yet, Ye Gu couldn't sit still. After changing his clothes, he was about to go out. As soon as he opened the door, he bumped into the rosy Luo Yang.
Although it was morning, the temperature was not low today. Fortunately, I changed into thin sportswear and went out, but I was still sweating.
When their eyes met, Ye Gu's ears were slightly red, and he coughed slightly, indicating that his arrogant temper was about to emerge again.
"You went out so early and didn't see your brother?"
Luo Yang was puzzled and frowned slightly: "Where did the morning jog come from, brother?"
Luo Yang changed her shoes and went straight to the house. She felt uncomfortable because she was covered in sweat. She planned to take a shower first and then have breakfast.
"Didn't you talk to your brother last night?"
Luo Yang's patience was good, but it also had a limit. He had something on his mind, but now it was completely stuck in his heart and he couldn't get rid of it.
She rarely raised her voice, and her voice was a little colder.
"Mr. Ye, it's better to stop in moderation. It makes you unhappy in the morning and is harmful to your health."
The taste of Ye Gu is so great that I have to have a reason to give up.
"So how long have you known each other?"
Luo Yang no longer indulged him, and said forcefully: "I didn't count, it's been a long time anyway." Ye Gu smiled angrily, OK, I'll count on you.
"Have you always been in contact?"
Luo Yang simply sat down on the sofa and didn't look back.
"So what if it is, so what if it's not."
Ye Gu sat down opposite her, took off his outer clothes, and found a white T-shirt underneath. His arms were cold and white, and he could tell that he was exercising.
"Are you trying to deal with me now?"
Luo Yang: "How dare I."
She also has arrogance and temperament in her body. Even if she is gentle in her bones, she is just an ordinary person. She has seven emotions and six desires, and she will naturally get angry sometimes.
Ye Gu was surprisingly persistent in the above question and asked without giving up: "Did you still keep in touch while you were abroad?"
Luo Yang paused subconsciously for half a second. Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, like a twisted mind at work. She clearly knew what the real answer was, but she was as rebellious as deliberately tampering with her application during the college entrance examination. She changed Just blurt out the answer.
"Contact occasionally."
After she finished speaking, the blanket beside her was tightly held in her hands. The guilt hung in her heart inch by inch. She was about to fall, but she was still tied by a thin rope to barely keep her breathing smooth.
Ye Gu was silent for a long time, his eyes seemed to be soaked in ice and snow, with strands oozing like ice water, without any warmth. However, the smile at the corner of his mouth did not fade away, but grew wider and wider.
His voice was hoarse and heavy, and every word was as sharp as a knife: "Oh, that's really me——, we people are worrying so blindly, but it is causing trouble for your beautiful life."
At the end, Ye Gu stood up and when she passed by Luo Yang, she opened her mouth to say something, but all she heard was a self-deprecating sentence: "I am redundant."
The tip of the knife fell and pierced straight into his heart. Luo Yang felt like something was stuck in his throat. He looked back and saw only the last corner of Ye Gu's clothes beside the door, which also disappeared as the door closed.
No, she wanted to say no.
She didn't know what emotion drove her to say that answer just now. The moment she finished speaking, she was shocked for a moment.
But it seems that she has been doing things that will make her regret. The farewell without saying goodbye back then and the lies she tells now always make her regret it later.
Ms. Yang will be disappointed when she sees it. Until now, she still can't say what she wants to say. She is afraid every day.
Luo Yang looked in the direction of the door for a long time, and then murmured. Perhaps his mouth was dry for a long time, and even his voice was a little hoarse.
"You are not superfluous...but, I'm afraid I am the superfluous one..."
///
After the unhappy breakup that day, the relationship between the two people seemed to return to before liberation overnight.
Luo Yang could talk as little as possible. The two of them were nothing more than different bedfellows. Every time Ye Gu came back to the room after taking a bath, Luo Yang was already asleep.
Looking at her thin shoulders, the outstretched hand finally retracted.
If only he hadn't been so stubborn that day, if only he hadn't seen her phone that day.
"Dr. Xi, am I too greedy?"
Xi Jinzhou felt very tired looking at Ye Gu who was drinking milk tea and worrying.
He kneaded his eyebrows and said, "Ye Gu, you were not like this before."
"Then what am I like?"
Xi Jinzhou clicked on the table, "Everything you saw before, you must get it. In order to get it, you would not hesitate to destroy it and make it your own."
Ye Gujing glanced at him, annoyed, "These are two different things."
Xi Jinzhou raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "Whatever the difference, it's still what you want."
Ye Gu looked serious and solemn, looking at Xi Jinzhou, "She is not an object, and will not be owned by anyone. You should pay attention to what you say."
Xi Jinzhou stared and said nothing. The two of them faced off for a long time. After a while, Xi Jinzhou showed his face and said, "This is the first time you dare to talk to me like this. Since you know the weight, don't do anything that doesn't mean what you say. ”
Ye Gu turned his head and looked around the apartment.
"Tell me, if I rented this house to Shen Fan, would she be happy?"
Xi Jinzhou suddenly realized, "Are you jealous? Are you going around in circles just because of this younger brother?"
Ye Gu seemed to have not heard what he said and was talking to himself.
"Speaking of which, I am three months younger than her, so I can be considered a younger brother. How am I worse than him?"
Xi Jinzhou was so blocked that he couldn't speak for a while. The Ye Gu in front of him looked as aggrieved as a puppy. If the scene were to be realized, he would have been short of two more whimperings.
He cleared his throat, held his cell phone, and with a rare cautious tone, asked: "Are you doing this for love? To be honest, it's a bit like what people say...licking a dog."
Ye Gu: "...If you can't speak, just don't speak. I'm very annoyed now and I don't mind a fight."
Xi Jinzhou knew best when it was time to stop, so he stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, meaningfully: "Then if she were in front of you now, what would you say to save the consequences of your previous fast talk?"
Ye Gu pushed his hand away in disgust, turned his chair, and leaned against the island platform with his middle back, looking arrogant.
A few seconds later, as Jin Zhou expected, Ye Gu was defeated. He sighed, looked at Xi Jinzhou, and said: "The brothers outside are not as good as the brothers at home. The brothers at home will only care about you." Call you sister, that sister is everywhere.”
"Do you think it's not good for me to say this?"
Xi Jinzhou looked heavy, and the next second, laughter came from the phone.
"That's very good. How about calling me sister to listen?"

The author said: I laughed so hard at Mr. Ye. I really had a picture when I wrote this chapter. Mr. Ye really looks like a big dog, the kind of tangled dog who likes you but doesn’t want to give in~
