Lian Xi ran over happily and threw himself into his father's arms.

"Dad, I'm back!"

Lian's father hugged his daughter excitedly, "I thought you wouldn't come back tonight."

"How could I?" Lian Xi stuck out her tongue and took her father's arm and acted like a spoiled child. "I promised, so of course I have to keep my promise."

Lian's father rubbed his daughter's head lovingly.

Lian Xi asked casually, "Where's Mom? Why don't I see her?"

"Your mother is cooking chicken soup at home to nourish you in the evening."

"That's great." Lian Xi jumped for joy, "We'll have delicious food tonight."

She walked forward holding her father's arm, and asked as she walked, "By the way, Dad, where's my brother? He didn't come with you?"

Lu Sili was forgotten at the back and could only follow silently, looking at the backs of the two figures, one big and one small.

"He has an appointment tonight." Lian's father said, "Your brother is busy, so don't bother him."

Lian Xi pouted, "I'm not pestering him."

Lian's father laughed and patted her arm, "Let's go, get in the car first, and we'll talk when we get home."

The three of them returned to Lian's house, and Lian's father served Lian Xi a bowl of chicken soup.

Lian Xi drank with gusto, while Lian's mother looked at Lu Sili and said, "Sili, please stay a few more days this time and accompany your aunt to go shopping and take a walk. Your aunt hasn't talked to you for a long time."

Lian's father also persuaded Lu Sili to stay for dinner.

Lu Sili couldn't refuse and had to stay.

After lunch, he played chess with Lian's father, while Lian Xi sat on the sofa and played games.

There was a sound of footsteps.

Lian Xi looked up and his eyes lit up immediately. He jumped off the sofa and went to meet him. He hugged his neck and called out coquettishly, "Brother~"

Lian Ze stroked his sister's soft long hair, smiled gently and said, "Why are you so thin?"

Lian Xi rubbed his cheek in grievance, "It's all because of you..."

Lian Ze raised an eyebrow, "Oh?"

"Oh, forget it, I don't blame you!" Lian Xi immediately changed the subject and asked with a smile, "I heard that your wedding with sister-in-law is about to be held."

Lian Ze was helpless and pinched her plump nose. "Is this what you are thinking about?"

"I really care about you." Lian Xi said, "You will find a wife sooner or later anyway, isn't it good to get married early? So you don't miss out later."

Lian Ze pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Lian Xi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.

At this moment, the door of the room suddenly opened and Lu Sili walked out.

Lian Ze noticed the man standing in the middle of the living room, was slightly startled, then extended his hand to him and smiled, "Hello, my name is Lian Ze."

Lu Sili nodded, shook hands with him, and introduced himself briefly and officially, "Lu Sili."

"Oh, it's you." Lian Xi said in surprise.

Lian Ze was puzzled, "Do you know him?"

"We have met before. He saved me." Lian Xi pointed at Lu Sili. "When he was injured, I sent him to the hospital and washed his stomach..."

Hearing this, Lian Ze's gaze towards Lu Sili became complicated.

He knew Lu Sili's identity, so he naturally knew that the reason Lu Sili was injured was because of him.

But this is no coincidence.

He knew very well that Lu Sili was definitely not just injured.

He vaguely guessed why Lu Sili was here, but he had no evidence.

"I see." He smiled faintly, "Thank you."

Lu Sili nodded slightly, then let go of his hand and walked straight out the door.

Lian Xi was stunned, "Hey, what are you doing?"

Lu Sili turned around and said calmly, "It's time to go."

Lian Xi stared at him with wide eyes, "But we just met..."

"Yes, but you are not feeling well now and need to rest." Lu Sili said, "Let's get together another day, okay?"

Lian Xi pursed his lips and said nothing, looking stubborn.

Lian Ze noticed something was wrong, so he asked, "What happened?"

Lian Xi hesitated for a while, but finally decided to tell his father the truth - after all, the consequences of hiding the truth from his father would be serious.

She recounted her experience that night in detail, and at the end she said indignantly, "…There are always bad people bullying me! Dad, brother, you must protect me."

After hearing this, Lian Ze frowned and looked at Lu Sili with a somewhat cold expression.

However, Lu Sili was open and frank, not afraid of his gaze at all.

After a moment, Lian Ze lowered his head and asked his sister in a calm tone, "Do you still want to live in the Lu family during this period? There are so many dangers."

Lian Xi nodded, "Of course, if I'm not with my husband, who else can I be with?"

After hearing this, Lian's father was silent for a long time and sighed.

"Okay," he said, "then continue to live here. No matter what happens, your brother and I are here, so don't be afraid."

Lian Xi was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes, "Thank you, Dad."

Lian Xi chatted for a while and then left with Lu Sili.

"Honey, do you think our child will be a boy or a girl?" Lian Xi suddenly asked in the car.

Lu Sili concentrated on driving and said nonchalantly, "Whatever."

"Yeah, whatever." Lian Xi muttered to himself, "Actually, I prefer girls, cute and pretty girls like me."

Lu Sili couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

The two returned to the villa. Lu Sili put down the car keys, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, and asked Lian Xi, "Where do you want to go?"

Lian Xi blinked and looked at him, "Why don't we go to the movies?"

Lu Sili thought for a moment, then said, "Okay, let's go tomorrow."

Lian Xi immediately became happy, "Great!"

Lu Sili lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms, a faint curve appearing on his lips.

Lian Ze saw it, sighed secretly, said nothing, and went back to his room to change clothes and prepare to take a shower.

The next day, Lu Sili took Lian Xi to see a movie. The two of them huddled in their seats in the cinema and smiled at each other.

Lian Xi is always the most devoted when watching a movie. When he sees an exciting part, he even forgets everything around him and concentrates on watching the movie.

Lu Sili didn't bother her, but just watched her quietly, occasionally handing her popcorn or a drink, so that she could watch the movie with peace of mind without having to worry about taking care of him.

It was already six o'clock in the evening when she finished watching the movie, and Lu Sili took Lian Xi out for dinner.

After dinner, the two went to the supermarket to buy things.

When passing by the snack area, Lian Xi suddenly remembered something, stopped, and said to Lu Sili, "Let's go buy some snacks."

Lu Sili asked, "What are you buying snacks for?"

"I'm greedy." Lian Xi said with a smile, "I want to eat something sweet."

Lu Sili thought for a moment and said, "There should be cakes and cookies in the refrigerator. Which one do you want?"

"It's all right. I'm not particularly fond of sweets anyway." Lian Xi said, pushing him and urging him, "Let's go, let's go, buy it and go back to eat, aren't you hungry?"

Lu Sili had no choice but to follow her into the cake shop.

Under the guidance of the shop assistant, the two selected egg tarts and biscuits of various flavors. Lian Xi paid for the goods and took them, carrying a full bag.
