love, don't bother

====================

Holding the hem of her skirt and stepping on high heels, Yu Xin ran downstairs like a happy little sparrow and rushed to Yu Ci's side, hugging Yu Ci's arm affectionately.

"Why did the second brother arrive?" Yu Xin raised her head cheerfully with a laughing voice, only to hear a stern cough behind her.

Yu Xin and Yu Ci looked up at the same time, and saw Liu Ruomei with arms wrapped around her, leaning gracefully against the railing of the stairs, her pair of phoenix eyes, which were exactly the same as those of the eldest son, fell sternly on Yu Xin's arm holding Yu Ci's arm .

"Xinxin, how do you learn etiquette? Use your mother to find another teacher to teach you again?"

Liu Ruomei's voice was still gentle and soft, but it made the smile on Yu Xin's face restrained a little, and she put down her hand and moved away from Yu Ci embarrassingly.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I haven't seen my second brother for too long. I'm so excited."

"Xinxin, remember, girls should pay attention to their manners whether they are at home or outside, you know?"

The plain white hands with sapphire blue nail polish rested on the mahogany armrest, and Liu Ruomei walked down the steps gracefully, stepping on shoes that were a few centimeters higher than Yu Xin's high-heeled shoes.

The floor tiles are marble, they are spotlessly polished, and they are so smooth that they can be used as mirrors.

The current heads of the Yu family still don't like carpets. The sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the marble is crisp and pleasant, but at the same time, it also makes people feel nervous, for fear that if they don't pay attention, they will fall on their backs.

Yu Ci's eyes kept falling on the ground as if nothing had happened, and when Liu Ruomei stood in front of her, she looked away as if nothing had happened.

As they got closer, the scent of incense and perfume that Yu Ci had already permeated into Liu Ruomei's nose.

People who like Adixian's Road to the Underworld feel that they are in a centuries-old temple. The fragrance of the fusion of incense and sandalwood is ethereal and ethereal, and the soul is calmed down.

Those who don't like it like Liu Ruomei think it is a smoky woody smell, which is so bad that it smells like death.

The arc of the red lips was retracted a little, and impatience appeared in the bottom of the phoenix eyes.Liu Ruomei snorted coldly in her heart, the second son's taste is too bad, and I don't know how the old man raised him?Sure enough, if the child is not raised by his side, it will not work.

Liu Ruomei turned around and walked towards the restaurant. After pulling away, she still felt the smoky smell in her nose, and her good mood was completely disturbed.

Turning around, he saw that Yu Ci and Yu Xin were still standing there chatting quietly.In particular, Yu Xin's eyes and face were full of admiration, which made Liu Ruomei even more displeased.

"What are you doing standing there in a daze? You haven't kept up." Liu Ruomei's gentle voice was tinged with coolness.

"Here we come!" Yu Xin hurriedly responded, and while Liu Ruomei turned her head, she stuck out her tongue at Yu Ci, made a grimace, and complained in a breathy voice.

"I really envy my second brother, who can live outside. Look at your poor sister, who can only be taken care of by mother at home every day."

The corners of Yu Ci's lips curled into a smile, and she patted her sister's shoulder lightly to comfort her.

Yu Xin rolled her eyes, and the ladylike appearance forced out by Liu Ruomei disappeared completely, turning into a charming and eccentric.

"How about this, second brother, you have a lot of houses, let me have one, and I will move out too, okay?"

Yu Ci didn't nod, but asked, "Will Mom let you live?"

A non-salty question, like a violent storm, directly turned Yu Xin into a wilting eggplant in the field.

She held her mouth and frowned, looked at Liu Ruomei who was walking in front full of resentment, and muttered in a low voice: "I can't, Mom said, I have to live at home honestly before I get married. But brother, I really don't want to live here." At home, I'm bored to death every day."

Yu Xin took Yu Ci's hand with both hands, and shook it coquettishly, as if to let Yu Ci think about it.

Yu Ci sighed helplessly, he hadn't seen his sister for more than a month, how could he become so annoying?

Xu Yuci has seen a lot of Nuoer's cute and sensible recently, even acting like a baby is a proper benefit, and it won't be more annoying.

Looking at Yu Xin now, Yu Ci felt his head was getting bigger.

"Xinxin, apart from this requirement, other second brothers can satisfy you."

Yu Ci knew Liu Ruomei's thoughts well. She wanted to use her only daughter as a marriage tool, so how could she easily let go of her palm.

Yu Ci's eyes fell on Yu Xin's body for a moment, and he told himself in his heart that it was not the time yet, and there were too few things in his hands.

Fortunately, Yu Xin also knew that her request was quite difficult, and it was difficult for her second brother, who was known as a hand-eye outside the world, to help her.

But getting a promise from the second brother is enough for Yu Xin to be happy for a long time.

Soon, they arrived at the door of the restaurant, and the maids guarding both sides bowed their heads.Yu Ci nodded to them lightly and walked into the restaurant.

The restaurant also continued the luxury of the hall. A long mahogany carved table with a length of more than ten meters was placed in the middle of the room, with mahogany high-back chairs on both sides, and oil paintings on the walls on both sides.

There are silver plates reflecting light and tall neck bottles with flowers on the table. If you don’t look at Liu Ruomei who is already sitting at the table wearing a cheongsam, you will have the illusion of stepping into a medieval European castle and attending an aristocratic dinner.

However, in Yu Ci's eyes, such an arrangement is quite similar to the famous painting "The Last Supper".Perhaps in Yu Ci's heart, every family banquet at Yu's family is the last supper.

The population of the head of the Yu family is small, and there are only five people in total, and three of them have already taken their seats.

Sitting in the main seat was a man wearing a black dress of a certain height, with neatly combed black hair, and his appearance was almost the same as that of Yu Ye who was beside him.

It's just that the man has more wrinkles at the corners of the eyes and cheeks than Yuye, and his temperament is also a romantic after thousands of sails, which is more charming than the unruly young people, just like the old wine that has been kept for a long time, it has more flavor.

The man is the current patriarch of the Yu family, the chairman of the Yu family, and Yu Ci's father——Yu Duanlin.

"Dad." Yu Ci still had that indifferent look, with a distant tone like a stranger.He didn't wait for Yu Duanlin to come back to him, and went directly to his seat and sat down.

Yu Duanlin raised his head and looked at his second son with a condescending look, his brows raised into deep grooves, his face was full of displeasure.He only nodded perfunctorily, as if he heard it.

Unlike Liu Ruomei, most of the time Yu Duanlin was not even willing to act with this son, showing his dislike clearly on his face.

Unlike Yu Ci, who dared not take Yu Duanlin seriously, Yu Xin obediently said hello to Yu Duanlin and Yu Ye who was sitting under Yu Duanlin in turn.

The five members of the Yu family were all present, even if they were sitting at a distance, they were sparsely seated at less than half of the table, with silver plates and gorgeous clothes on their bodies, like a dark humorous movie.

But no one dared to mention this, because everyone present except Yu Ci enjoyed this moment.

Even Yu Xin is no exception, as can be seen from her well-dressed attire and carefully painted makeup.

The dishes were brought up one by one. Yu Ci looked at the medium-rare steak on the plate and sighed softly in his heart. It really was Western food.

This was actually another reason why Yu Ci was unwilling to come back to the family banquet.

The deceased Mr. Yu also liked the steak and mushroom soup very much. He didn't count if he liked it, but he forced Yu Ci to eat it too.

Beef is actually a burden for a child's stomach to digest, especially for a child who was malnourished when he was young. At that time, Yu Ci got stomach problems.

But this is a secret, no one knows except Yu Ci himself.Because Yu Ci knew that if the calculation was made out, no one would care about it, and instead, grandpa would reprimand her for being coquettish with a cold face.

There is really no need.

Yu Ci later went to study in England, and before meeting Lin Mo, he always hired a Chinese chef to cook.After picking up Lin Mo, he threw the cooking work to Lin Mo.

Now, the burden of cooking was taken off Lin Mo and handed over to Nuo Er.

The silver knife and fork was slowly scratching the steak. Yu Ci, who was already a little bit depressed, couldn't arouse any interest when he thought of the food made by Nuo Er and looked at the western food in front of him.

Even though Yu Duanlin had found all of these specially, and was made by a two-star Michelin chef, Yu Ci couldn't even arouse the slightest interest.

He even thought that the steak was not as good as Noel's cumin beef.

Putting the knife and fork on the side of the dinner plate, Yu Ci picked up the white napkin and tapped it to the corner of her mouth, thinking about finding some excuse to leave early in her heart.

Yu Ye, who was sitting next to Yu Ci, looked at Yu Ci rightly that night.Even when he was eating, he kept looking at Yu Ci with the tip of his eyes.

Seeing that Yu Ci put down his knife and fork early, Yu Ye turned on the bad water that he had held up all night.He straightened his back, tilted his head, put on a big brother's smile, and asked with concern.

"Why does the second brother eat so little? Don't you like it?"
