[Lingjia Zoo III Xiaoqiangxing people also courteous] Do not come to online games with explosive hea

Pretty similar. "

Now, Xiron's imagination became that the whole family waved at him with fried chicken, even Uncle Tony who helped him cut his hair last time was no exception.He stroked his face in embarrassment, thinking that he might not be able to escape, but fortunately, Belle was with him, so the atmosphere wouldn't be so tense, right?

"Xiao Lun, don't worry, my family is fine." Finally aware of his uneasiness, Aiden quickly stuck to him to comfort him.

Good or bad, this definition can also be divided into outsiders or your own family, Xi Lun helplessly smiled, unable to bear to expose the truth, "Can your family really accept you bringing a man back?"

"Why not? I often bring men home, and Ty often comes back with me..." Aiden the dumbass said halfway, before he realized in the black line that Xiron slid, "Oh, you mean men Friend? They already know you, no problem."

"How early?"

"I told you on the first day we met, they are looking forward to it."

Is that too early?Shiron was really speechless.

"Don't be afraid! If they dare to do anything to Brother Lun, I will..." Xiaohu didn't say a word, but was dragged away by Wang Yiquan covering her mouth. Fortunately, Xiaotu was familiar with the aggressive style of the old sister, and pressed Xiao Nini's ear first Otherwise, the little lady's training plan will be ruined.

Regarding Xiao Hu's double stabbing, Xi Lun smiled wryly.At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated twice, and he took it out to see that it was Bell's message sent through the OPS APP.

"Meow Meow Xianbei: Don't be afraid, at worst, we will kick Bung Zhudeng's ass together when we get home~OwO"

"Heh." Although venting his anger couldn't solve the problem, Xi Lun couldn't help laughing out at the childish words of encouragement.He looked at Belle, who was lying on his brother's shoulder and smiling at him, and whispered back, "Thank you."

Another message came -

"Meow Meow Xianbei: But when you go to Zhuzhu's house, you really have to be mentally prepared, hehe! 』

"..."

This is not consoling at all!He took back the thanks just now without words.

However, Schillon is not such a person who flinches easily. After a few days of psychological adjustment, he still remained calm and took the car to Monduffy's house.However, things will always develop in unexpected directions.

When the car drove in front of a luxurious and luxurious villa like a castle, the large luxury cars parked nearby immediately made Xi Lun feel dizzy.Although, for the gallery business, he had accompanied Lucian many times in dealing with the upper class, but it was precisely because of this that he was somewhat resistant to such noble and glamorous social activities.

Alas, since it's here, let's settle down.He adjusted his newly bought clothes, dark blue gradient V-neck shirt and white slacks. It really didn't look like he was going to meet his parents, but rather went shopping and eating with friends. Is it really appropriate to wear this to meet his parents?

"Don't worry, Lun, it's just an ordinary family gathering." Compared to his worrying, Aiden is much more laid-back, and Xie Lun sometimes envies this guy's rough nerves.Having said that, what kind of people would raise such a wonderful family as Aiden?

"Be mentally prepared." Belle whispered beside him with a dark smile.

"Thank you, you have repeated it several times." Xi Lun glanced angrily at the brother party who was also dressed in casual clothes, thinking that even Tai was dressed so everyday, so it should be no problem.

In fact, there is really no big problem, because the problem lies elsewhere.

"Unleash the Force! Swish——"

"Godzilla radiates! Kar—"

"..."

As soon as he stepped into the entrance, he saw two grinning teenagers confronting each other in the poses of Golden Rooster Independence and Kameha Qigong, which made Xi Lun suddenly embarrassed. What's going on?

"Pfft haha! That's not how Star Wars and Godzilla fight, you guys are stupid!" Belle was the first to laugh wildly.

"Went and Bing are fighting again?" Aiden also laughed a few times before introducing to Xi Lun: "They are my nephews! Are they cute?"

The young man who was caught and fixed in the frame also looked over with embarrassment. The moment their eyes touched Xi Lun, they obviously paused for a second, then jumped up and roared into the room with an astonishingly loud voice, "Dad, Mom, Uncle, Aunt, Grandpa, Grandma! Here they come! Uncle Aiden's beauty is here!"

Xi Lun is more embarrassing, but this is not the most embarrassing.

"Coming?"

"It's finally here!"

"Here comes the beauty!"

"The beautiful daughter-in-law is here!"

The loud roars echoed from the corridor far away, it was simply the true 3D version of the legendary Thousand Miles Transmission.Just when Xi Lun was so embarrassed that he wanted to turn around and leave, Aiden hugged him and shouted back: "Brother brought the beautiful wife back!"

No, eardrums... Xie Lun covered his loudly ringing ears, and cast a distressing look at Belle, but saw that the other party had already been driven away by Tetesla towards the side stairs, and immediately let him experience the feeling of Aiden's first Olympic game. Puth's emotion - this pair of brothers who abandoned their companions again!

At this moment, the sound of rumbling footsteps came from far away like an army attacking. When Xi Lun recovered, he found that he was surrounded by mountains... no, it was the Alps, and at the same time he was greeted by Chinese with a foreign accent. Serial bombing.

"Are you Aaron? Hello, hello, I'm brother Monte!" A man who looked like Aiden couldn't help but enthusiastically hold Xiron's hand and shook him wildly, shaking him.

"Sure enough, son Goodjob!" The middle-aged man, who looked seven points like Aiden, shook his face and compared his thumbs, as if he had given birth to an egg himself.

"I'm my little cousin Nami. I heard that you used to be a star? Sign your autograph!" The young man who looked like Aiden put the autograph in front of Xi Lun's eyes with glowing eyes, more excited than blood.

"I'm your third uncle! Hahaha!" The burly man who looked like Aiden directly gave the title, and laughed with his waist and neck trembling. With an exploding head.

"I'm the second brother..."

"I am……"

"I……"

"Hahaha! Brother's wife is so popular!"

Xi Lun, who couldn't utter a single word amidst the self-introduction and Aiden's silly laughter, can only be described as messy in the wind at the moment. What about the noble and glamorous upper class?

After nearly 10 or [-] minutes, it finally ended with the yelling of an aunt. It is said that the queen of the Monduffy family who can best subdue this group of beasts - Aiden's mother.

"I'm sorry to scare you. From now on, you can deal with them as aggressively as I did just now." Aidan's mother, who is slightly plump, drove the group of men and Aiden away, and kindly pulled him to the living room sit down.There were two smiling women sitting on the sofa, and one of them had a slightly protruding belly, which seemed to be Aiden's pregnant third sister-in-law.

"No. Ah, I can speak English." Xi Lun took the initiative to answer in English, feeling a little embarrassed that his family would cooperate with him in speaking Chinese.

Aiden's mother seemed very pleased with what he said, so she also switched back to her mother tongue and chatted about a lot of things, most of which were related to her family, and asked him how he got along with Aiden from time to time. He was a very talkative and cheerful person. , the other two sisters-in-law also joined the conversation. Finally, they talked about Aiden's childhood fun, which made him laugh until his stomach cramped, and Aiden's mother sighed.

"Well, Aiden is the quietest one in our family. I always worry that no one likes him. Now he can find you."

Wen... Quiet?Xi Lun felt that his concept was not right. Aiden's pig-headed virtue is Wen Jing?He remembered that although Tony's words were shocking at first, but later his words and deeds were all polite, so he said, "I think Tony is also quite..."

"Yahoo--"

Before he finished speaking, a neat figure flew past his eyes with a clear scream. Belle was holding an ice cream hanging on Tony's back with one hand, while Tony was stepping on a skateboard with one foot and pouring beer with the other hand. Speeding down from the second floor, Aiden followed behind with outstretched arms ready to pick him up: "Be careful! Be careful! Little Belle, hurry up and don't fall! Slow down, Tony!"

Tony, who had changed from his elegant image in the hair salon, was wearing a very strong visual rock makeup. Before he hit the wall, he performed an emergency fancy tail flick. Putting it on the cabinet, he gave Belle a high-five and cheered, and made a Rocker gesture and shouted: "I'mawesome! Woohoo——"

"Yeah! Do it again!" Belle exclaimed incessantly, not even realizing that the ice cream dripped onto her hand.

"Then let's play window jumping this time." Tony snapped his fingers, sparks of eagerness burst out in his eyes.

"It's too dangerous! Tony!" Aiden was sweating profusely, fearing that he would be skinned by his younger brother.

Xi Lun was stunned for a while, then nodded under the sympathetic gazes of the other daughters-in-law, "Aiden is really quiet."

The whole family is sick, right?Xi Lun realized a truth - to raise a wonderful family, you must first have an even more wonderful family!

After an hour of this, Belle, who had finally had enough fun, slipped to Xi Lun's side to rest while Aiden's mother finished chatting and went to the kitchen, "Hey! Brother Lun, do you have any thoughts?"

"Thinking..." Xi Lun exhaled heavily, not yet recovering from the dizziness of riding a roller coaster, "It seems to be watching a group of advanced copies of Aiden running around."

"Pfft hahahaha! Just say you have to be mentally prepared?" Belle laughed gloatingly, so that Xi Lun couldn't help pinching his cheek and cursing secretly, this is also a naughty little weirdo!

When it was time for dinner, Aiden's two sisters also came back with their husband and children. There were almost 40 people in the whole family. This number really made Xi Lun dumbfounded, but the astonishing thing was yet to come.

"It's just close relatives who often come and go. There are four brothers in my grandfather's generation alone. If I really want to invite them all, I have to book another venue. Because Rowling finally got pregnant with her first child, everyone is very happy. It was just a temporary celebration." Aiden took Xiron's hand and walked towards the banquet hall, the smile on his face was unprecedentedly bright.

It is rare for such a big family to be so happy.Seeing him so happy, Xi Lun felt soft in his heart, "You are very happy today."

"Yeah, it's the first time I brought my partner back, and seeing you get along well, I was so happy that I almost cried." Aiden said, sucking his nose so that he was choked up, and put his whole body on Xiron's shoulder Rely on acting like a spoiled child, "Honey, I love you so much!"

The volume of this confession was not low, and it attracted a lot of gossip and low laughter. Xi Lun's ears turned red, and he quickly pushed him away and cursed: "It depends on the occasion."

Due to the large number of people having dinner, four long tables had to be combined in such a huge venue to be able to sit down.The food is buffet style, although it is a temporary party, it is quite rich.The Monduffy men, who were finally crazy enough, also returned to their normal patterns and sat down with their partners.Based on Xi Lun's observation all afternoon, it is not difficult to find that these daughter-in-laws all have a common characteristic - they are good at suppressing big and small children, so he can't help admiring them from the bottom of their hearts.

Their seats were arranged in the fourth and fifth boxes next to the main seat, and Belle sat in the third box.Xi Lun looked around, but couldn't see the person who was always clinging to his younger brother, so he asked Belle, "Where's your brother?"

"I've been talking to Grandpa Kentucky Chicken, I don't know what to do." Belle pouted and fiddled with the napkin, dissatisfied with her brother's absence for too long.

"It must be talking about overseas investment. My grandpa likes to talk to Tai about these things." Aiden explained with a smile.

"Hmm... But, when I went in just now, what I heard didn't seem to be the case." Belle put her hands on her cheeks, lying on the table with some disinterest, rarely interested in food, until Titus and a white-haired When Old Man Hu appeared, he immediately cheered up and gave a sweet smile, while pouting and complaining: "Grandpa Kentucky Chicken is so slow, I'm so hungry."

The mischievous and straightforward speech caused a roar of laughter, and some people responded: "The dwarf winter melon is going to shrink from hunger!"

"You're shrinking, Brian!" Belle fought back furiously, only to calm down under Titus' soft voice.

The word "dwarf winter melon" made the corners of Xi Lun's lips curl up involuntarily.The men present were all tall and burly, and they would be submerged if Aiden was thrown into it. Even he felt oppressed by the poor vision, let alone Belle, who claims to be 1.7 meters tall, that is Aiden and the two teenagers The nephews are all taller and stronger than Belle. It can only be said that Monduffy's family genes are really strong and embarrassing.

"Hehehe, little Belle has been waiting for a long time." Grandpa Aiden smiled and shook his double chin, raised the champagne on the table and said to everyone: "I wish Rowling, Reiner and the future little Monduffy family happiness and happiness , and..." The congratulatory words paused, and the old man's loving gaze shifted to Xi Lun, "Mr. Xi Lun is also welcome to join us, and I wish you and Aiden every success."

"cheers!"

Amidst the joyful echoes, Xi Lun took a sip of champagne in a daze, and his mood cooled down a little.Although Cai Cai's welcome speech sounded warm and friendly, there was a sense of déjà vu, very much like the slightly cold tone of Lucien's parents who were friendly to him back then.He put down the glass with a faint smile, lowering his eyes to hide the bitterness in his eyes.Sure enough, no matter how enlightened the family is, there will always be an exception, and that person is Aiden's beloved grandfather.

The process of the banquet was very lively, a fierce battle for food was launched among the younger generation of children, foodie Belle was naturally one of them, I saw a mountain of high plates piled up in front of him, but his small mouth was still open. Can't stop chewing.

And Xiron finally saw the origin of Aiden's wife's servility—as long as the men of the Monduffy family served their wives, Aiden's father also changed from a tough man to a little sheep. Sticking to Aiden's mother and giggling foolishly, the level of showing affection is almost enough for a competition.

Glancing again at Titus, who was feeding, wiping Belle’s mouth and hands, and pouring fruit juice, his tenderness and considerateness surpassed those of other husbands, Xi Lun couldn’t help laughing and thought, if this pair were not brothers but lovers If so, Tai will definitely be able to join this wife-slave competition. No wonder the system keeps misjudging... If it is a couple?Then all the unreasonableness of the two brothers... seems to be able to work?

At this point in her thoughts, Xi Lundun felt that something was wrong, but was interrupted by the delicious food that was suddenly delivered to her eyes.

"Honey, this grilled lamb chops are amazing, come on, ah." Aiden happily held a plate of lamb chops to feed.Xi Lun, who was already quite full, reluctantly let him stuff a few pieces of fat and juicy meat. It was so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue, and he couldn't help but feel emotional.

Alas, these days are so beautiful that I feel more and more uneasy.

[Next Part Preview] "The Torn Mask": The shocking inside story hit Xiao Lun hard.The word count is about 3000 words, and it will be posted on Thursday morning.

55-2. The Torn Mask

>>>Is it a blind date, or a Hongmen banquet?All shadows will be exposed with one word.

Unsurprisingly, the dinner party turned into a drinking party at the end. Aiden was caught to have a carnival. After eating to his heart's content, Belle continued to play wildly with the children. Titus disappeared again, probably hiding in a corner to watch his brother play.

Xi Lun was rubbing his stuffed belly, and was considering where to go for a walk to digest, when someone patted him on the shoulder.

"Hehe, don't you mind going for a walk with me, an old guy? I really can't eat too much when I'm old." Aiden's grandfather brushed his round belly, his smiling face could barely see his eyes.I saw him with white hair like snow, a neat white beard on his lips, a thin white beard in the center of his chin, and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. It really reminds people of KFC grandfather.

"Of course I don't mind." Xi Lun got up and followed the old man to the courtyard.I heard from Aiden that the old man is 80 years old, but his footsteps are still quite steady, and his voice is loud and powerful, which shows how tough his body is.From time to time, he stares at the other person's appearance from the corner of his eye. The facial features are very similar to Aiden's. He looks like a fat version of old Aiden. He unconsciously imagines Aiden's appearance when he was old, and a sweet smile rises at the corner of his mouth. I don't know if I have the chance to wait until that day.

The courtyard of Monduffy's house is very large. Under the design of the second brother Aiden who is a landscape architect, it is planned to look like a magnificent and exquisite garden, and there are many street lights for lighting. Even in the dark, you can clearly enjoy the scenery. There are many flowers.Next to the garden is the swimming pool separated by a fence. The noise of children playing water fights can be heard from time to time, and Belle's cheers and smiles are included in it. It really is a childlike innocence.

Along the way, Xi Lun walked slowly with the grandfather, and listened quietly to the memory of the history of the Monduffy family. It actually started from the earliest immigration wave in the United States. At that time, Monduffy fell in love with a beautiful Chinese woman. So they approached each other on the pretext of cooperating in the tea business, and started a passionate pursuit. Unexpectedly, the business of the two couples grew bigger and bigger, and the Monduffy family prospered like this.

Gradually, the topic of the elderly finally turned to the descendants of this generation, and they also returned to the house after visiting the garden and walked towards the second floor.

"Think about it, our family first got married with the Chinese, and now my little grandson Aiden also got married with the Chinese. It's really a wonderful fate." The grandfather looked at the bustling hall downstairs and smiled with emotion , "The old guy is getting old, and now he only wants his children and grandchildren to be happy, haha."

No matter what his grandfather said to him before, Xi Lun still has respect for his elders in his heart.He then responded lightly to express his understanding, and glanced at Aiden who was being held up by his brothers to drink, he couldn't help laughing and shaking his head, fortunately this pig doesn't usually play so crazy, otherwise he would definitely not be able to stand it.

"Aiden, because his mother was not young when she conceived him, the weight of the newly born baby broke the family record, and his head is also the dullest in the family, but he is also very stubborn. If he really likes something, he will cling to him life and death. It made us worry a lot.”

When Xi Lun heard this, he was inexplicably surprised that such a big Aiden had ever been thinner?But when it comes to stubbornness, he also laughed and said, "It's really stubborn."

"Is that so? I heard that he stalked you and made a fool of himself before he finally won your heart. He really is our Monduffy boy, hahaha!"

Has this even spread?What did the pig return to the family every day?Xiron gave a dry laugh with a little embarrassment.

The old man laughed enough, and turned around to walk towards the room, "Oh, I'm so relieved to see that he has finally given up on Tai. It's been so hard to be unrequitedly in love for so many years."

What?Xi Lun asked blankly: "Give up on Tai?"

"Yeah, he has been chasing Tai persistently for many years. He has been talking about his name all day since junior high school. That year he gave up college for Tai to become his assistant, and asked us to raise funds to help Tai raise stocks. To fight against uncle's forces, even if people have the same meaning for him..." Grandpa ecstatically spoke halfway, then he seemed to realize that the audience had lost his voice, and looked at him in surprise, "What? Didn't Aiden tell you?"

"Did you know he loved me? 』

The man's words from many years ago came to mind, and Shiron suddenly remembered the dream he had had, the dream that the rival in love who took Lucian and claimed victory became Titus.He said in a deep voice with some chills in his heart: "No."

"That's it, I'm talking too much, haha." The old man didn't feel embarrassed, and said again, as if he couldn't see Xie Lun's bleeding face, "Actually, it's not like our family doesn't have same-sex couples. Nami is Aiden's little cousin, and so is one of my nephews, and I guess Tony is too."

"Actually, whether it's a boy or a girl, all the people who marry our Monduffy family are talents who have performed outstandingly in their respective fields, and none of them are empty vases with appearances but useless. Tai is such an outstanding genius. He entered the nation’s No. [-] medical school with a free scholarship, and he is also amazing in shopping malls. If he really wants to be part of our family, I’m so happy that it’s too late.”

"Unfortunately, I thought Tay had been single all this time. Maybe it was because I realized that I wanted to accept the silly Aiden who had been with him for so many years. I was just too embarrassed to take the initiative. I didn't expect that I was thinking too much and my expectations were in vain."

After expressing himself, the old man said apologetically, "Oh, I shouldn't have told you these things, hahaha, I'm really old and confused."

Heh, it's not that he's confused, he's actually very smart. I've talked with Titus Smith for so long today, probably because of this.Xiron collected his expression and said very coldly: "Mr. Monduffy is humble. If you are dissatisfied that I have taken this position, you can talk to Aiden, or you can still find Titus to join hands in planning to intervene. If If you really have the heart to let Aiden get hurt again and again."

Hearing this, the old man immediately backed off his smile, and the yellowish light in the corridor cast a deep reflection on his presbyopic lenses, "Well, you have a bit of a brain, it seems that I underestimated you, old man."

"You're not the first person to play this game with me, but I'm sorry I won't participate." Back then, Lucian's family used more ruthless methods, and he came over, even though he was also covered in bruises.After Xi Lun sneered, he clenched his numb hands, suppressed the anger that was almost out of control, and turned away as calmly as possible.However, what Aiden had said about Titus in the past kept flashing through his mind.

"Oh, Tai was the most charming little beauty I've ever seen when I was young..."

"Huh?Even Xiaolun said the same.Tai and I are just good buddies, how could we possibly date each other? 』

"...I'm glad Ty is willing to boss me around and lose his temper with me. 』

Because... Is it because you once loved each other deeply?

After Xi Lun quickly walked into the corner, he let out the breath stuck in his chest, almost unable to stand against the wall and gasped.The unusually congested and heavy feeling made it difficult to breathe smoothly. He gritted his teeth and thought for a while, then turned to the nearest balcony.

It's no big deal that everyone loved someone in the past, but how many people are still with the old love after many years?Even become an inseparable best friend, yet so hardworking?this……

What about Titus?What was he thinking about Aiden?Has it really been indifferent for so many years?Why does Aiden have to deliberately disrupt every time he interacts with a new partner?How long has it been since joining forces with Aiden's grandpa?

Aiden... Titus and Aiden...

"My cousin trusts him so much that he entrusts him with important tasks. Sometimes Aiden has to forcefully share the burden..."

The words Xiaotu mentioned inadvertently made Xi Lun recall Belle's conversation that night——

"I often feel that there is a tacit understanding between my brother and Aiden that even I cannot penetrate... If possible, I really hope that the person who can fight by his side at any time is me, not Aiden. 』

"Sometimes, I can't help but wonder if my brother keeps a lot of secrets from me. It seems that only Aiden knows his thoughts, but he never tells me..."

At that time, he only felt that his younger brother's possessiveness towards his elder brother was too unbelievable, but he didn't think about it. Now he was extremely shocked, and it made every cold look and stinging words he received from Titus in the game more clear. abnormal.If those cold attitudes with vague disgust were not jealousy of him taking Aiden away, why were they always aimed at himself?

"Did you know he loved me?It's just that I kept missing it, and when I finally found out what I wanted, he already had you... But Lu finally responded to me. 』

It turned out that he had no intention of intervening in other people's relationships?Is he about to make the same mistakes again?

The sudden discovery made Xi Lun inexplicably aroused hatred. Even if the night wind blowing on his face made his cheeks numb, it couldn't extinguish the roar that filled his mind: Why should he experience the same fate over and over again?Why would he lose everything he had so hard to get no matter what he did?Why?

"If you can't take it, get out, don't be an eyesore here."

Biting sarcasm came from the side, and Xiron looked back, and saw Titus sitting on the sofa next to the railing with his legs crossed, looking softly at the swimming pool below the balcony.

"You..." After only one word, Xi Lun stopped as if choked, and could only hold back his anger and stare at the other party, but couldn't say the question that almost blurted out - what is the relationship between you and Aiden?

Titus glanced at him, and didn't intend to pursue the interrupted words, but said coldly: "Is it fair to Aiden to live and die with Lucian's inheritance?"

"How do you know..." Xi Lun opened his eyes wide in shock, and the moment he realized the truth made him tremble with anger.It is impossible for Belle, who shares secrets with herself, to tell, so there is only one possibility, "Are you investigating me?"

"Hmph, do you think that I will allow outsiders to approach my people without checking the details?"

The corner of Titus's mouth curved slightly in contempt, making Silen guess that the so-called "my people" refers to Aiden.As a result, his heart became even more angry, and finally he didn't want to endure these grievances anymore, so he pointed at the proud man and cursed angrily: "You self-righteous people, why do you decide for others without authorization?"

"Because you are not worthy of Aiden." Ignoring his face-to-face accusation, Titus calmly smiled back at Belle below, and then said quietly but firmly, "You don't love him, you just need him."

"What... what?" Shiron was shocked.

"How many times has he said he loves you, have you ever responded?"

"..."

Seeing that he was pale and unable to answer, Titus stood up with a sneer, and walked away from the balcony leisurely, leaving a conclusion that made Xiron completely loathe himself——

"To you, Aiden is just a substitute for Lucian."

56. Touch and explode

>>>Paper can't contain the fire, and the suspicions that have been suppressed for a long time are finally blowing up wave after wave.

『For you, Aiden is just a substitute for Lucian. 』

Xi Lun leaned against the fence of the roof, looking at the New York Harbor in the distance under the night, but his heart was not settled by the tranquility in front of him.

After the dinner party last night, Aiden, who was drunk and unconscious, was left directly at Monduffy's house. He was so restless that he didn't pay attention to what everyone asked, so he was dragged into the car by Belle in a daze. Still can't get rid of the words that can't be echoed in my mind.

"Brother Lun, do you want to be picky?"

A sweet smell came from his mouth, Xi Lun looked back, it was Belle holding a piece of watermelon and smiling cutely, really like a caring kitten.He took the watermelon and saw that Belle's hands were empty, so he asked, "You don't want to eat?"

"Mine has already been blemished, that's for you." Belle licked her juice-stained fingers, then leaned on the fence and propped her cheek, "Zizhu Deng just called to ask where you are, why didn't you pick him up?" The phone. He is so stupid that he is so drunk that he just woke up now."

Xie Lun stopped biting the watermelon, then lowered his eyes and chewed the sweet flesh in his mouth, but still felt bitter, "Is he okay?"

"Hehe, the hangover is serious. He said he had a terrible headache and vomited all over the floor. He also said that it's a good thing you didn't stay, otherwise he would be exhausted to help take care of him." Belle laughed gloatingly a few times , then looked at Xi Lun's lonely side face, "Everyone called you several times today, but you didn't seem to hear it. Little sister Hu also said that brother Lun will do this again tomorrow, and she will throw Nini to scare you."

Xi Lun couldn't help laughing: "Is there a mother like her?"

"What happened to Brother Lun?" Belle paused, then asked again, "Did Grandpa Kentucky Chicken say something?"

"How do you know?" Xiron was taken aback.

Belle puffed her cheeks and said, "Auntie wanted to keep you with Aiden yesterday, but Grandpa KFC asked us to bring you back."

"He...he only thinks about Aiden." Shiron hesitated to omit the word "we", not wanting Belle to feel embarrassed about Titus.

"Ah?"

"Do you think..." Xi Lun stared at the watermelon in his hand, and finally said, "Am I using Aiden?"

"Ah?"

Seeing that he was even more puzzled, Xi Lun reluctantly evoked a wry smile, "Obviously he has been in a relationship with Aiden, but he is always influenced by Lucian, and he can't forget everything with him."

Belle scratched her head, raised her beautiful eyebrows and asked, "He has had a great influence on you, isn't it normal that you can't forget it?"

"But I can't choose." Thinking of what happened in the game, Xiron's eyes turned red.

"What's the meaning?"

"Aiden and I went to do the couple task of the true love test. He passed, but I didn't." Xi Lun clenched his hand on the railing, his fingertips were scratched by the rough metal, "I saw Lucian, with the engraving on his chest The tattoo with my name was still bleeding, at that moment, I forgot everything, forgot that we were in the game, forgot that it was just a phantom, and also forgot about Aiden, I could only keep crying his name..."

Seeing the tears falling from Xi Lun, Belle was stunned for a long time before leaning back on the railing. She didn't know what emotion she was feeling, "You just need time, because you are someone you have loved deeply. After a long time of love, it will take more time." It took a long time to let go, but you just met Aiden before the end of that time. That's not taking advantage, it's trying to move forward."

Xi Lun was stunned for a moment, seeing that the normally childish boy had an expression on his face, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You're so sure, do you have any experience? A classmate from school?"

"Of course there is! It's me...uh..." Almost blurting out the truth, Belle was startled and accidentally bit the tip of his tongue. The pain made him burst into tears, and he explained inarticulately: "Scallion, onion juice (In short), Wo Ye Gu Niankuo (loved bitterly) for a long time!"

"A secret crush that can't be said?" Seeing him covering his mouth and nodding, Xi Lun couldn't help but pass the watermelon that hadn't defrosted in his hand, "Apply it, why are you so nervous? I don't know each other, just It’s okay to know.”

Miwu, it’s someone you know but you can’t say it yet!Belle was really suffering and couldn't tell, so she had to eat watermelon to compress the wound with ice.

Seeing his childish appearance with his cheeks puffed up, like a fluffy little animal, Xi Lun suddenly felt that if he had such a younger brother, he would feel healed no matter how much pain he experienced.
