Countdown to Contract Marriage

Li Ningning lowered his head with a guilty conscience.

"I saw that you were unhappy, so I wanted to coax you. I didn't expect to be exposed so soon. I'm a little sad."

Li Ningning lowered his head, kept stirring his two fingers, and kept drawing circles, like a primary school student being criticized.

The smile on Xiao Yimeng's face did not change, and his words were fierce, "Ningning, I said, don't make fun of my brother's affairs, and this is not funny at all."

Li Ningning puffed up his cheeks, and raised his head helplessly, as long as he mentioned Xiao Yimeng's brother, it was equivalent to violating a taboo.

Li Ningning dragged her heavy body to make a cup of instant coffee. She also deliberately added two cubes of sugar, and brought it to Xiao Yimeng carefully.

"Mengmeng, I swear, I was wrong, I will never mention that person casually again, so you forgive me? Try the coffee, add sugar, two pieces of sugar, the taste you like."

Xiao Yimeng pretended to take a sip, "The taste is not bad. I forgive you."

Li Ningning happily hugged Xiao Yimeng.

There was a charming smile in Xiao Yimeng's eyes, Li Ningning was the best at coaxing people.

Xiao Yimeng's cell phone kept blinking, Xiao Yishan continued to dial with great interest, without giving up at all.

after an hour.

Xiao Yimeng and Xiao Yishan met at the Dream Cafe.

Xiao Yimeng muttered to himself, if I knew I was here, I wouldn't drink coffee.

Xiao Yishan snapped his fingers, and immediately a waiter served two cups of coffee.

Xiao Yimeng frowned slightly, hiccupped, and the smell of coffee was still in his mouth.

Xiao Yimeng's every move did not escape Xiao Yishan's sight.

Xiao Yishan glanced at Xiao Yimeng indifferently, pushed one of the cups of coffee aside, and asked the waiter to serve another cup of orange juice.

The moment Xiao Yimeng saw the orange juice on the table, Xiao Yimeng's eyes lit up.

She drank the orange juice in small sips, with a contented expression on her face, anyone who saw it thought it was beautiful, and wanted to freeze time at this moment.

Xiao Yishan picked up a cup of coffee, the bitterness of the coffee swept over his taste buds, just like his current mood, there are some things that he has to talk to Xiao Yimeng.

He didn't say it doesn't mean he didn't know.

"Xiaomeng, you have something to hide from me."

Xiao Yimeng was greedy for the sweetness of the juice, so he still put down the juice glass.

No matter how beautiful the juice is, it can't compare to her beloved brother.

Xiao Yimeng raised his head, his eyes were bent into crescent moons, and there was a playful smile in the corner of his mouth.

"Brother, you already know what I kept from you. I work in the Tang Corporation, but I promise, I won't make trouble for Sister Tang Rou."

Xiao Yimeng couldn't name her sister-in-law, but being able to say Tang Rou was already the limit of her heart.

When Tang Rou was mentioned, Xiao Yishan's heart speeded up a lot involuntarily, and he found that his dependence on Tang Rou became deeper.

Tang Rou's every move can affect Xiao Yishan's heart. She has indeed changed a lot, and she is somewhat different from her memory, but it makes Xiao Yishan feel his heartbeat again.

Xiao Yishan tried his best to restrain the desire growing in his heart, "Xiaomeng, you are very smart, avoid the serious and take the light, you know better than me, I am not talking about this matter."

Xiao Yimeng's hand rested uncomfortably on the table, her body leaned forward slightly, her face flickered with uncertainty, she could deceive anyone as long as she wanted, but she couldn't do it in front of Xiao Yishan.

Xiao Yishan looked at the empty coffee cup, and briefly and forcefully bumped the coffee cup and saucer with his hands, again and again, as if knocking on Xiao Yimeng's heart.

"Brother, don't you believe me? I'm your sister."

Xiao Yishan put down the cup in his hand, rubbed his sore temples.

It is precisely because this person is Xiaomeng and his sister that he depends on each other for life that he has endured until now, and he will not persecute her. He dares to say that he would not treat them so pamperingly if it were anyone else.

"Xiaomeng, Ming people don't talk dark words. How far do you want to help Zhou Xiong? I am enough for the people around him. Do you still want to jump into the fire pit again? How different we are today Easy, I don't believe it, you don't understand that."

Xiao Yimeng looked at the empty juice glass, the curvature of the corner of his mouth gradually flattened, and his moon-like eyes lost their expression.

"Brother, it's not that I want to help him. If I don't help him, how will the two of us survive? Or, I still naively believe that he will let us go? No, he won't let us go, as long as Our bodies still have warmth and blood, and he will only drain our last remaining value. If I don’t compromise, what can I do? If you choose one of Tang Rou and your life to survive, I’m sorry I’m not the Virgin, I The only choice is you."

Xiao Yishan had thought that Xiao Yimeng might give him an answer, an answer why she insisted on staying by Tang Rou's side.

This answer, even if Xiao Yimeng didn't say it, he knew it in his heart, Xiao Yishan was still deeply shocked that Xiao Yimeng really had to say it himself.

In my memory, Xiao Yimeng doesn't have so many worries, she has always been a happy and innocent younger sister, she wants to work only because she is bored, because she wants to take care of herself, and just to make ends meet for the family.

It turned out not to be.

Xiao Yishan was silent for a long time before speaking again, "Xiao Meng, can you promise me not to hurt Tang Rou."

Xiao Yishan encountered a dilemma again.

A few years ago, he gave up Tang Rou for Xiao Yimeng. At that time, Xiao Yimeng's life was in Zhou Xiong's hands, and he had no choice.

Several years later, fate placed two women in front of him again. The only difference was that his sister had grown up and matured.His lover is in love with someone else.

But Xiao Yishan didn't want to hurt Tang Rou again, and he didn't want to hurt his sister either.

Xiao Yimeng turned the juice glass and leaned herself on the seat. She really wanted to blurt out, "Brother, I love you, don't worry about others, let's go together, there is always a way to escape this dangerous world."

She couldn't say it, not because of shyness, but because Xiao Yishan has always loved her like a family member, but he has never had love.

Xiao Yimeng's eyes were stubborn and firm, as if he had made a decision.

"Brother, I can't guarantee it. I don't know how to hurt her. If hurting her company is hurting her, hurting her friends is hurting her, hurting her lover is hurting her, then who can guarantee that she will never hurt her?" , I do everything just to protect myself, I just want to live in this world well, I finally have the right to live, I can't let others take this right away."

Xiao Yishan's heart was beating wildly, he was flustered, Xiao Yimeng in front of him was much firmer than the little dream he remembered, she was no longer the child who needed protection, she was no longer the person who was attached to him .

These are not important.

The important thing is that she will be the one who hurt Tang Rou.

Xiao Yishan took a deep breath, and insincerely asked Xiao Yimeng a question, "Xiaomeng, do you still want to find your family?"

Xiao Yimeng suddenly opened her eyes. In her eyes, she couldn't believe it. Does the agreement between her and her brother really count?

"Brother, you don't want me anymore."

"It's not that I don't want you, I'm thinking, after waiting for so long, maybe you also want to find your family, and you also long for a family relationship."

Xiao Yimeng shook his head like a rattle, "Brother, you let me down so much. We said we would depend on each other for life. Those who abandon us don't deserve our love."

"Xiaomeng, what if they are not careful?"

"The original you wouldn't say that. No matter how careless they are, they didn't take good care of us. Now that we have met each other, we are the closest family members. We no longer need others to play the role of family members. You said so , do you want to deny all of this?"

"It's not a denial, it's a possibility to provide you with another life. In case they are also looking for you very eagerly, and they miss you very much, don't you want to have another family?"

Xiao Yishan didn't feel this way before. Since he followed Chu's father that time, he felt sad for the first time. It turns out that losing his family is a big hole that can never be filled, tormenting him all the time. watching them.

He, doesn't want his family to suffer any harm, even though they hurt himself.

In the same way, he didn't want Xiao Yimeng to always live under the shadow of Zhou Xiong because of his own reasons, and he would have no hope in this life. Maybe Xiao Yimeng had other possibilities for her.

Tears welled up in Xiao Yimeng's eyes, and she was terrified.

"Brother, don't leave me behind. I'll change, can't I change? I didn't hurt Tang Rou. If I don't do some things, others will. But if I do, we will suffer less. We can stay in this city longer. I don't want to live a life of homelessness anymore, I like this city, I like here."

Xiao Yimeng seldom cried anymore, she seldom showed her vulnerable side in front of Xiao Yishan, she saw that Tang Rou was very strong, Xiao Yimeng sometimes thought, maybe what brother likes is a strong woman, she should do it herself A strong woman, a strong woman cannot cry.

Xiao Yishan couldn't continue talking, he hugged Xiao Yimeng, gently stroked her soft hair with his hands, just like she did when she was a child, humming a song to her softly, Xiao Yimeng's tears gradually stopped.

Her eyes fluttered, and there were tears in them.

"Brother, tell the truth, is that person forcing you again?"

Xiao Yishan was speechless, it seemed that nothing he said was quite right.

He lightly patted Xiao Yimeng's shoulder, "Cry if you want, there is nothing to be ashamed of in front of my brother, you are my brother's treasure, and my brother will always protect you."

Xiao Yimeng rubbed against Xiao Yishan's arms affectionately, like a lazy kitten, looking for the most comfortable position in the arms of its owner.

Since she grew up, she hasn't been so intimate with her brother for a long time.

Xiao Yishan always told her, when you grow up, although we are better than real brothers and sisters, we are not real brothers and sisters, you will have someone you love in the future, it is not a good thing to always cling to your brother like this.

Xiao Yimeng really wanted to refute Xiao Yishan, but she didn't dare, because she was afraid that if she put all her eggs in one basket, the brother-sister relationship would disappear.

"Brother, I really want to be like this all the time, but I know it's not possible."

Xiao Yimeng wiped away the tears from his eyes, and got up from Xiao Yishan's embrace, "Brother, there seems to be some problem with Tang Rou's relationship, maybe you can help her, I support you."

Xiao Yishan's breathing stagnated.

He hadn't contacted Tang Rou for a long time. No matter how much he loved Tang Rou, the person who could be by her side was not himself.Besides, she was married again, and she shouldn't appear by her side because of emotion and reason.

Xiao Yimeng's words were like magic, giving Xiao Yishan the qualification to start over.

Xiao Yishan was a little flustered, he kept rubbing his hands, he was really nervous.

Xiao Yimeng held Xiao Yishan with her white hand, she was transmitting a kind of power, Xiao Yishan was upset, but he still pushed Xiao Yimeng away.
