Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

The moment Daomingsi turned off the light and walked out of the room, Lei slowly opened his eyes in the darkness.

He sat up and rubbed his temple, then he took the phone from the bedside table next to him and clicked on the dialog box. The curve of his mouth grew wider and wider when he saw several messages sent to him by Shanlai.

【Mom likes you very much. 】

[If you can't drink, don't drink. Actually, Dad doesn't drink much. I just heard Mom complain that he was making things difficult for you without knowing the difference between the important and the minor. Dad lowered his head and didn't say anything.]

[Go to bed early after drinking. Don't make a fuss, little Hanazawa Rui. Be good. Only good children get candy. ]

The more he read her messages, the funnier he found them. Did she treat him like a kindergarten kid? Her tone was like she was coaxing a child.

However, he really liked this kind of chattering, because at least it showed that she was seriously sharing her life with him and caring about him.

[Okay, Huaze Lei won't make a fuss. He will go to sleep well. Remember to give me candy tomorrow.]

【Good night. 】

The other party seemed to be waiting for his message. He just sent it and the message showed "input in progress". [Okay, good night.]

After replying to her message, Lei turned on the bedside lamp, got up, went to the bathroom to take a shower, blow-dried his hair, and then lay back down on the bed.

Just as I was lying on the bed, Ximen came in with a bowl of sobering soup.

Seeing Lei leaning against the head of the bed, Ximen smiled maliciously, "Tsk, you're really good at pretending. You're quite good at it."

He walked to Lei's bed with one hand in his pocket and handed him the hangover soup. "I was so naive that I thought you were knocked out by three glasses of whiskey. It seems that I still underestimated you."

Lei took the sobering soup and drank it all. "Don't slander me." He said this, but there was no sign on his face that he was aware of being drunk.

"Didn't you get drunk easily after drinking before? Today is really strange. Did you secretly go to a nightclub to practice without telling us?" Ximen's words were full of suspicion. The four of them were good brothers who grew up together, and they knew each other's personalities more or less. He was really surprised when Lei drank the wine today.

He didn't even know that he could drink so much. Even if it was him who was drinking, he couldn't even handle two cups, let alone three.

Hearing Ximen talking about nightclubs, Lei turned and looked at him, "Don't slander me, I never go to nightclubs, I am not like you, Master Ximen."

"Yes, yes, it's different. I don't know who is so obedient in front of his future father-in-law that I can't stand it. You are just about to sell yourself to Shanlai's father, right?" Ximen teased his good brother.

Lei did not deny his words. He put down the bowl of hangover soup and looked at Ximen again. "If you find someone you like in the future, I think you might be even crazier than me. I am looking forward to the day when Master Ximen settles down for love."

"Haha, this young master has walked through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on him. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed." Ximen sighed, but just as he said this, Xiaoyou's image flashed through his mind, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Ximen, don't be slapped in the face by what you said." Lei watched Ximen say this slowly. He naturally knew the next development trend. Ximen would be slapped in the face by what he said tonight, and it would be a painful slap.

"I don't know where the person who can make me settle down is. Now that you have someone you like, as a brother, I wish you the best, but it's just the same. Don't make me anxious here."

Ximen shook his head lightly to get rid of the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, "Honestly, what do you think about Shanlai?" Ximen suddenly became serious.

I didn't expect him to say this, and he didn't seem to have reacted yet. "If everything goes well, then we'll get engaged." He drooped his eyelids, and I don't know what he was thinking.

"That's a good idea. Just work hard on it." Simon said as he stood up.

There was another silence between the two of them, and no one spoke again.

"Simon, how is Lei?" Meizuo opened the door and asked softly, walking in lightly.

Simon turned his head and glanced at Lei lying on the bed. He had already laid down with his eyes closed.

It's more like being drunk.

"Oh, I just let him drink some sobering soup. There shouldn't be any big problem next time. Let's go out." Ximen said as he pushed Meizuo out and turned off the lights.

Mei Zuo didn't understand, but he knew that Ximen was probably asking him not to disturb Lei's rest, so he didn't ask too much.

When the two of them reached the door, Ximen seemed to suddenly remember something, "Mei Zuo, go wash up first. My phone accidentally fell on the coffee table. I'll go get it."

"Well, I'll be leaving first." After saying that, Meisaku walked towards his room.

Ximen opened the door and walked in, turning on the light. "Mei Zuo has left, stop pretending and get up quickly." Then he sat down on the sofa next to him.

Lei heard his voice and slowly sat up from the bed, "Anything else?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to see if you were asleep."

kind:"……"

"Seriously, what are you going to do about Huo Cheng's matter?" Ximen crossed his legs and swiped his phone to look at the person leaning against the head of the bed opposite him.

"I didn't think about it."

Simon was speechless.

Haven't thought about it? Why doesn't he believe it?

“行了，需要兄弟的时候就说一声，我觉得霍澄会成为你跟杉莱爱情前面的绊脚石。”西门的话跟他的表情各管各的，话很正经，表情很欠揍。

Lei's eyes suddenly became sharp when he looked at Ximen.

Simon swallowed his saliva and stood up from the sofa silently. "It's getting late. You should go to bed early. I'm going back." After saying that, he ran out as if escaping.

Lei leaned against the head of the bed and thought carefully about Ximen's words. He felt that what he said was not wrong. He and Huo Cheng did not know each other at all, and they had no friendship in the past. But he still didn't understand why Huo Cheng always went against Shan Lai.

Suddenly I remembered that the last time I went to see Jing, she said that she liked Huo Cheng very much when he was a child, but he seemed to have no memory of Huo Cheng playing with them when he was a child.

Jing wouldn't lie to him.

But when he thought that Huo Cheng liked him very much, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Huo Cheng's love was beyond his reach. To him, she was just a stranger, a stranger whose name he couldn't even call.

Thinking about what Huo Cheng said to Shan Lai today, he seemed to understand something again.

No matter what, Huo Cheng had no intention of getting anything on Shan Lai. If she had any problems, she could come to him.

After thinking for a while, he decided to go to bed first.

He always ignores things that are somewhat related to him but also seem to have little to do with him, but this time, it seems that he cannot ignore the person.

Thinking about this, he logged into the social software again and searched for Huo Cheng's account with his memory...
