Ever since he swallowed Xiaoshui's dragon ball, Yan Chen's lifespan has become as long as Xiaoshui's, and his lifespan has become longer, which also prevents him from aging year by year like ordinary humans. Many years have passed since the age of 28, and his face is no different from before, but it looks more calm than before.

Yan Chen's company became more and more prosperous, especially after cooperating with Long Qingyang, the games in his company were promoted internationally, and soon several other countries came to discuss cooperation matters, and the limelight was lost for a while. Two, Yan Chen took the opportunity to launch a new game that he had been preparing for a long time, and it really took the top spot on the list, and it became even more popular.

His career has climbed to the peak time and time again, and what people like to talk about is that he has always remained single. Except for Long Painter who has a good relationship, he has never had any close people around him.Yan Chen was handsome and had an extraordinary wealth. He was supposed to be a diamond king, but he was attracted by his charm. There were many women who threw themselves into his arms, but there had never been any scandals.

When Yan Chen was 40 years old, Yan's father and Yan's mother were even more anxious. The idea of ​​urging their son to get married not only did not disappear with time, but became more and more urgent.

At Jiangshi Airport, when Yan Chen got off the plane, he took out his cell phone and took a look. Sure enough, there were many missed calls, all of which were from Xiao Shui.

He called Xiao Shui back, the beeping sounded for a long time, but no one answered, Yan Chen remembered that Xiao Shui had an art exhibition to attend today, and I am afraid that those calls were also made before the art exhibition started, this time the art exhibition It must have already started, and the phone was muted, so naturally there was no way to receive his call.

Yan Chen put away his cell phone before stopping a car to go home.

The building I lived in when I was a child was demolished a few years ago, and Yan Chen simply bought a three-bedroom, two-living house for Yan's father and mother, one for the old couple, one for him to live in when he came back occasionally, and the other for Yan's mother. For the nanny.The two old people are getting old, and they can't handle many things. Yan Chen is not around, so they specially find a nanny to watch them all the time.

Knowing that his son will come back today, Yan's father and Yan's mother asked the nanny to buy a lot of vegetables early in the morning. The two old people were standing in front of the window and watched eagerly. When they saw Yan Chen's figure appearing at the gate of the community , and hurried downstairs to meet him.

Before Yan Chen reached the door of his house, he saw Father Yan coming out of the building, walking towards him with a full face of joy.

Yan Chen quickly walked over: "Dad, why did you come down?"

"I didn't see you coming. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to find your way, so I came down to pick you up."

Yan Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "How could I not be able to find the way to my home?"

Father Yan snorted: "You don't come home once in a few months, and you don't know when the last time you came, you know if you still remember when you sleep."

Yan Chen helped him into the apartment building slowly, he pressed the elevator, and said: "My company is in Haishi, I asked you to move to Haishi before, and the house was bought, but you didn't want to. "

"What's so good about Haishi? I've lived in Jiangshi for so many years. Both your mother and I think Jiangshi is very good, and so do you. Why don't you just move your company to Jiangshi so that you don't have to stay at home every day? .”

Yan Chen smiled, but didn't answer.

The elevator opened at the sound, and Mother Yan was waiting at the door. When she saw the two of them coming out of the elevator, she immediately laughed, and there were wrinkles left by the years at the corners of her eyes.

The two old people welcomed Yan Chen in quickly, and complained about the gift in his hand. The nanny poured a cup of tea and handed it to him. She couldn't hold back and said, "Mr. Yan looks so young. Like a nephew who graduated."

"Yeah, I don't know what's going on with this kid, he's 40 years old, and he's still taking care of himself like a young man. If it wasn't for the fact that both of us have gray hair, I would have thought he had just graduated from college. Father Yan sighed: "When we go out, people who don't know will think we are grandpa and grandson."

Yan's mother also said quietly: "Yes, for those who are the same age as me, this grandson has already entered high school. It's a pity that my daughter-in-law doesn't know where she is."

Yan Chen lowered his eyes, lowered his head to drink water, and pretended he didn't hear anything.

Every time he came back, Yan's mother would think about this topic. The nanny had worked in Yan's family for many years, so she naturally understood this routine. After hearing what Yan's mother said, she silently returned to her room.

There were only the three of them left in the living room. Mother Yan pulled him to talk about family affairs for a while, and then she asked, "You haven't come back for so long, have you seen someone you like?"

"Mom." Yan Chen said helplessly, "I've already said it, don't rush me."

"You are already forty, and you look like a young man no matter how you look. You are not too young at this age. Half of your life has passed, and you haven't found a partner yet. How can I be relieved?" Mother Yan sighed: "And Women of your age don't look as young as you, and most of them are married and have children. If you look down on women of your age, even if you find a little girl back, Mom won't mind. Do you still remember Uncle Li? His son It's about your age, and I just found a college student."

Yan Chen became more and more helpless: "I'm a bit behind my age."

"You don't like young ones, old ones are fine." Mother Yan said urgently: "Your Aunt Zhang's daughter, do you remember? She is five years younger than you, she went abroad to study for a Ph.D., and is now engaged in scientific research. She's not married either, if you think it's okay, I'll tell your Auntie Zhang, how about you two meet and see?"

"..."

Yan Chen lowered his head to drink water, stood up again, took the bag he brought over, and checked the contents as if nothing had happened: "Mom, the one I brought back is a tonic recommended by a friend. Okay, you remember to eat a little every day, let Liu Ma remember it for you, don't let me forget."

Yan's mother glared at Yan's father angrily.

Father Yan held up the newspaper to block her view, pretending that he didn't see anything.

Mother Yan wanted to bring up this topic several times, but Yan Chen turned her off, so she had to give up this plan for the time being.

It was rare for Yan Chen to come back. Apart from thinking about his marriage, Yan's mother also missed him very much. When eating, she kept adding vegetables to his bowl.

After dinner, the three of them sat in front of the sofa, watched TV together, and chatted about homework.

Yan Chen took out his cell phone and looked at it several times, but before he got a call from Xiao Shui, he became absent-minded.If he remembered correctly, the art exhibition that Xiaoshui participated in today was only in the afternoon, so it should have ended long ago. According to the usual, Xiaoshui should have already called himself, why didn't he call today?

Yan Chen wanted to call Xiao Shui, but Yan's father and Yan's mother were sitting beside him, so he temporarily suppressed this thought.

Father Yan kept changing channels while pressing the remote control, and suddenly stopped on Haishi Channel, pointed to the person on the screen and asked, "Is this Xiaoshui?"

Yan Chen looked up, and saw Xiao Shui's figure appearing on the TV. The art exhibition held during the day was on the news. This art exhibition was very large, many well-known painters participated, and even many foreign reporters came. So the news is also more focused.

Yan Chen watched the figure on TV for a long time, then nodded, and said, "Yes, it's Xiaoshui."

"I remember Xiaoshui was only that big when he came to our house." Mother Yan sighed, "He has grown so big in the blink of an eye. He is now a painter. This painting is really good. It seems that he is very famous. , I don’t understand these things, and I often see him on the news.”

Because she was someone she knew, Mother Yan also paid special attention to the news reports about Xiaoshui, and vaguely knew that he was very famous now, and a painting could sell for a high price.

Yan Chen responded casually, his eyes still fixed on the figure on the TV.

Xiao Shui on the TV is wearing simple casual clothes, simple in style, but also a bit formal. He is incompatible with the casually dressed painters around him. He doesn't look like a bohemian painter, on the contrary, he looks like a nobleman who has strayed in.This outfit was chosen for Xiao Shui after he got up in the morning.Originally, Xiao Shui wanted to go there in a shiny high-end dress—it was ordered with Long Yuze not long ago. The dress was inlaid with countless diamonds and precious stones, and even the sewing thread was gold thread. It was sparkling from beginning to end. Yes, after getting the clothes, Xiao Shui was very happy. He was waiting for an important occasion to wear them out. He put them on when he got up in the morning. He persuaded him for a long time before giving up. When he went out, Xiao Shui refused. With a straight face, he looked a little sullen.

I don't know if it's gone now.Yan Shen was lost in thought.

Yan's mother glanced at him, and then mentioned casually: "According to his age, he is seven or eight years younger than you, and Xiao Shui must be thirty. A lot of girls are chasing after me? I don’t know if I have found a girlfriend.”

Yan Chen was still in a trance, when she heard her question, he subconsciously replied: "I found it."

As soon as he finished answering, he secretly said badly in his heart.

Sure enough, Mother Yan said pleasantly: "Xiao Shui found a girlfriend? What does she look like? Do you have a picture? How is that girl? Okay? Hey, if you have a picture, show it to me."

Yan Chen faltered, shook his head again, and didn't say a word.

"What do you mean?" Mother Yan wondered, "Do you know this? Or don't you know?"

Yan Chen thought for a while, then nodded.

"Now that you know, tell me, how is that girl?"

Yan Chen thought for a while, and said cheekily, "Very good."

"How good?"

"Just...very good." Yan Chen said, "Xiao Shui also likes it very much."

"Xiao Shui likes it? It's good that Xiao Shui likes it." Mother Yan nodded, and then looked at him faintly: "Xiao Shui already has someone he likes, and he is younger than you. When will you Bring someone back to show me?"

Yan Chen: "..."

Yan Chen said vaguely: "Let's talk about it, there will be."

"It will happen, and when will it happen?" Mother Yan said persistently, "Give me a confirmation letter, so that I don't have to worry about you anymore."

Yan Chen was not easy to answer.

He can't tell Mother Yan that he has found a lover, but the one who just appeared on TV, right?

While he was hesitating, Yanmu suddenly sighed again.

"Actually, I don't have to force you, but you see, your father and I have gray hair, and we are getting older. In the past few years, we have become more and more powerless in doing things. If you didn't find someone to come Look, I really can’t do many things.” Yan’s mother lowered her eyes and said in a serious tone: “I want you to get married, but I don’t mean that you must get married when you reach your age. It’s just that you are not young anymore, 40 years old , half of your life has passed, you still value your career and live a fulfilling life, and you are willing to be single, but when you are old, I am afraid that you will still be alone. If you are still alone, how lonely you will be .”

Yan Chen's eyes moved slightly.

"Your dad and I are in good health now. If you feel bored, you can come to us, but if we die too, you will be left alone, and no one will accompany you. You can't talk to me if you have something to do." Others said, what should I do then?" Mother Yan sighed: "When you were young, your father and I were busy with work and didn't have much time to spend with you. When you grow up, your personality becomes very independent. What's the matter? We don't need to worry about it. This is a good thing, but seeing that you have no one around you for so many years, we are also worried. We don't want you to get married. I just want someone to accompany you. What's the matter? Someone can share the burden with you, and you don’t have to carry it alone, so we can rest assured.”

Yan Chen said softly, "I still have Xiao Shui."

"Xiao Shui has a good relationship with you. He will follow you to visit us during the holidays, but he also has a girlfriend. After a few years, he will get married, and then he will have his own family. In a few days In [-], he even has a child, so he doesn't care about you." Mother Yan patted the back of his hand: "Whether it's a parent or a friend, there must be someone by your side."

"..."

Father Yan also put down the newspaper and looked towards him.

Compared with Yan Chen's appearance that hadn't changed for more than ten years, Yan's father and Yan's mother aged very quickly, even most of their hair had turned gray, and they were already old men and old ladies.

After having a life that seemed endless, Yan Chen felt that time passed very slowly. The lovers around him and himself in the mirror hardly changed every day. The dragon of life, he originally thought that he still had a lot of time, but now he suddenly realized that other people are just ordinary humans.

And he is no longer human.

He has the appearance of a human, but he is like a dragon on the inside. Whether it is a long life, or more and more liking for water, and the gradual changes in his body, he is almost unaware of them because of the slowness.

Yan Chen stretched out his hand to hold his parents' hands. He raised his head and smiled relaxedly: "Actually, I have already found it."

Yan's father and Yan's mother were taken aback for a moment, they didn't expect him to say such a thing, and after realizing it, they immediately said pleasantly: "You found it?"

Yan Chen nodded: "Yes."

"Really? You didn't lie to me?" Yan Mu's face was full of disbelief: "I'm not that easy to lie, let me tell you, if you really find it, you can call that girl now Call, you let her come over, let me see you?"

There was still suspicion in her words.

Mother Yan didn't believe it, but she watched her son stand up as she said, and walked to the balcony outside. The glass door was closed to isolate the outside sound, but through the transparent glass, she also He could clearly see his son taking out his cell phone from his pocket and calling someone.

Yan's mother turned her head and looked at Yan's father, and they both saw disbelief on each other's faces.

……

When Xiao Shui received Yan Chen's call, he was playing with his brother.

The two dragons spit bubbles lying on the bottom of the fish tank. When the phone rang, Yinlong immediately raised his head and looked towards the coffee table. Sure enough, he saw the phone with the screen turned on.

He hesitated for a while, snorted again, and laid his head back to the bottom of the fish tank. He seemed unwilling to answer the phone, but his eyes were looking at the direction of the phone without blinking. He moved his ears and counted the ringtones in his heart. When will it stop.

So many reporters came to today's art exhibition, but I was dressed in dusty clothes, and there was not even a single sparkle on my body. Looking at the flashes of those cameras, I thought that my photos would be published in newspapers. In the news, On the Internet, people all over the country can see her gray appearance, and Xiao Shui feels that she is not well.

It is simply too embarrassing for the dragon!

Yan Chen didn't even apologize to him!

Xiao Shui adjusted his posture, still staring at the cell phone over there without blinking.

The little black dragon lying next to him turned his head and looked at him with puzzled eyes: "Brother? Are you not answering the phone?"

Xiao Shui snorted and expressed his rejection with actions.

The cell phone on the coffee table rang for a long time before it finally stopped. Xiao Shui adjusted his posture again, swearing in his heart that Yan Chen gave up so suddenly, only to hear the cell phone ring again in the next second, and he immediately said what he had just said. The conclusion was overturned, rounded up as Yan Chen had apologized to himself, and quickly swam to the surface of the water and jumped out.

When the ring rang for the second time, Xiao Shui answered the phone: "Hello? Yan Chen?"

Yan Chen directly said on the phone: "Are you free tomorrow?"

Xiao Shui recalled it for a while, then nodded: "I'm free, what's the matter?"

"My mother wants to see you."

"what?"

"I'm going to confess our affairs to my parents." Yan Chen said: "I told them that I already have someone I'm dating, but they don't believe it."

Xiao Shui sucked in a breath of cold air suddenly, and stammered: "I, I, I, I..."

Yan Chen chuckled softly: "So are you free, come over and help me verify the authenticity of my words?"

Xiao Shui almost jumped up, and couldn't wait to say: "Of course!"

He took his mobile phone and walked out: "Is it today? Or should I go over now? Wait for me for a few minutes, I will fly over very quickly!"

As he said, he had pushed open the French windows and walked to the balcony, and was about to turn into a dragon and fly over there.

"Don't worry." Yan Chen hurriedly stopped him: "They just saw you on the news today. It will take hours for Haishi to come here by plane. You can come back tomorrow."

Xiao Shui had no choice but to agree.

He confirmed with Yan Chen several times on the phone, and Yan Chen also confirmed the authenticity of the call several times before finally hanging up.

Xiao Shui grabbed the phone, stood blankly on the balcony for a while, then turned around suddenly, turned into a dragon and plunged into the fish tank.

"Crash!"There were countless splashes of water.

The little black dragon wagged its tail curiously and approached him. He stretched out his tail and poked his younger brother. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the temperature of his younger brother's dragon scales seemed to have risen a little.

……

Xiaoshui came quickly.

The next morning, Yan Chen was having breakfast with his parents when he heard the doorbell ring.He looked up consciously, and before the nanny went to open the door, he got up and walked over.

It really was Xiao Shui standing outside the door.

Yan Chen glanced at the time, it was 06:30 in the morning.He couldn't laugh or cry immediately: "Are you here now?"

Xiao Shui's eyes were black and blue, and he looked bright, looking at him with sparkling eyes: "Am I late?"

"No, on the contrary, I came early."

Xiao Shui let out an "ah" and said, "Then shall I come back in a few hours?"

Yan Chen couldn't help but let him in, let him in: "Since you're already here, let's just come in."

Xiao Shui took a deep breath, and walked in with one hand and one foot.He has been to Yan Chen's house countless times, so it can be said that he is familiar with the road, but this time, he is still extremely cautious.

He walked in, first said hello to Yan's father and Yan's mother, then stood where he was, not knowing what to do for a while, and looked at Yan Chen for help.

Yan Chen walked over: "Mom, Xiao Shui is here."

"Xiao Shui?!" Mother Yan was surprised: "Aren't you in Haishi? When did you come? Why didn't you tell us?"

Xiao Shui replied truthfully, "I came here this morning, by... a plane."

"Why is it so urgent that you flew here overnight. It's so early in the morning, you haven't eaten yet, let's eat something to fill your stomach first." Yan Mu pulled him to sit down at the dining table, and looked at him with a smile : "Oh, I saw you on the news last night. I heard from Yan Chen that you still have a girlfriend?"

Xiao Shui shook his head in a daze, then quickly reacted and nodded quickly.

Mother Yan was at a loss: "Is this there? Or not?"

Xiao Shui responded with a groan, "Yes..."

But not a girlfriend, but a boyfriend.

Or your son!

The relationship between Xiao Shui and Yan Mu is already very close. He has followed Yan Chen to Yan's house many times, and every time Yan Chen wants to come back, he will come back with him most of the time. Big, already regarded him as half a son in his heart.Usually, Xiao Shui had a natural attitude in front of Yan's mother, and subconsciously approached her as an elder, but this time, with a special thought in mind, he couldn't help it.

His abnormality was also noticed by Yan's mother, who looked at Yan Chen suspiciously, trying to get him to tell her what happened.

Yan Chen came over and sat down beside Xiao Shui. He reached out to hold Xiao Shui's hand, and Xiao Shui quickly clasped his fingers with his backhand.The two looked at Yan's father and Yan's mother opposite, one nervous and the other calm.Yan Chen said frankly: "Xiao Shui is the lover I told you about."

With red ears, Xiao Shui nodded.

The expressions of Yan's father and Yan's mother suddenly became blank.

After a long while, Mother Yan came back to her senses, blinked, and asked, "Where's Xiao Shui's girlfriend?"

Yan Chen: "There is no girlfriend, only a boyfriend."

Mother Yan: "..."

Mother Yan was short of breath: "When did you two get together?"

Yan Chen recalled it for a while and said, "It's been more than ten years."

Mother Yan: "..."

The four of them stared at each other for a while, and Mother Yan took a deep breath and slapped the table heavily: "You...you...you bastard!"

"Mom, I know you may not be able to accept it for the time being, but Xiaoshui and I are serious." Yan Chen said sincerely: "We have been together for more than ten years, and I have never dared to tell you because I was afraid that you would not be able to accept it. But you I also said that I just want someone to accompany me, Xiao Shui..."

Before Yan Chen could speak, Mother Yan slapped the table again and interrupted: "Xiao Shui, Xiao Shui is your younger brother!"

"Mom, we are not related by blood."

"But, but Xiaoshui is so many years younger than you..." Mother Yan said, looking at him with disbelief and disappointment in her eyes: "I will not object if you find anyone, but why do you want to treat Xiaoshui?" Let's start, you, you have always had a good relationship, so it's possible that you have had this idea before?!"

Yan Chen choked.

All words of persuasion were blocked by Yan's mother's words.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always feels that there is something wrong with his image in his mother's mind.

Yan Chen thought for a while, and tentatively said, "I fell in love with Xiao Shui only after he became an adult...?"

Hearing this, Yan Mu let out a long sigh of relief.

Yan Chen: ...It seems that it is not an illusion!

mom!You seem to have some strange misunderstanding about me!

Mother Yan made a lot of psychological preparations in her heart, and finally accepted this matter reluctantly.

She asked again: "Does Xiao Shui's father know about this?"

Mother Yan was worried. She remembered that Xiaoshui's family didn't seem to be ordinary people, and they were very imposing. If they knew that their son was abducted by a man who was nearly ten years older than him, they might be so angry.

"My father knows." Xiao Shui quickly said: "My father, brother Ze, uncle, grandpa, uncles, and my brother, they all agreed with me and Yan Chen!"

Only then did Mother Yan feel relieved, and then she asked in confusion, "When did you have an older brother?"

Xiao Shui choked.

Because of the special nature of the elder brother, they have not introduced the existence of the elder brother to Yan's father and Yan's mother.

Xiao Shui faltered and said: "It's...a brother who came later..."

Mother Yan immediately recalled the family ethics drama she had watched a few days ago, and her gaze was filled with pity when she watched him.

After that everything went much smoother.

Mother Yan's demands on Yan Chen were not high, after so many years, she has reached the point where he can find someone to come back and he can be satisfied. When she realized that her son is not some kind of pervert, she let out a sigh of relief. I am completely at ease.

It turns out that Xiaoshui is half a son, but now he has become Yan Chen's lover. After understanding the cause and effect, Yan's mother likes him very much. In Yan's house, he was fed several catties in a daze.

Sitting on the plane back, he was drowsy, and suddenly remembered something, grabbed Yan Chen's hand, and said, "Let Dad come over some other day."

"Ok?"

Xiao Shui muttered, "The in-laws want to meet."

Yan Chen smiled: "Okay."

……

Haishi gossip has another headline.

Yan Shen, the hottest golden bachelor, is out of the singles, wearing a shiny ring on his hand, when he was interviewed by a magazine, he unabashedly revealed the fact that he already has a partner.

What about the other ring?

On the finger of the dragon painter.
