My son sleeps lightly

Xiao Chong sat alone in Ye Lan's room. He flipped through two pages of the book Ye Lan usually read, sighed twice, and put the book back to its original place.

It's strange that as soon as the owner of the house leaves, the house no longer has his warmth.

Xiao Chong relaxed his shoulders twice, that's okay, no one bothered him anymore after Ye Lan went out, it was so clean.

clean.

Too clean.

Xiao Chong patted the table irritably, he knew where Ye Lan had gone!

There was only one place where he felt taboo—Nuanxiang Pavilion.

But didn't we go together last time? Why can't we go this time?

Xiao Chong thought sullenly, he had never been abandoned by Ye Lan before, so he must find a way to get revenge.

He thought for a while, stood up, walked to Ye Lan's closet, rummaged through it, took out the sky blue gown that Ye Lan liked to wear most, crumpled the clothes into a ball angrily, and watched quietly After a while, he put the clothes into his arms, took a few steps back, and fell directly onto the bed.

Since they were 13 years old, the two hadn't slept in the same bed. On the surface, Xiao Chong said that he was tall and that the two of them slept together too crowded, but the actual reason was only understood by himself.

Xiao Chong turned around and faced the wall, thinking about Ye Lan's stupidity when he was drunk a few days ago.

Eyes shrouded in mist.

Xiao Chong took a deep breath.

"Squeak", the door suddenly opened.

Xiao Chong was taken aback, but he knew he couldn't move yet.

Taohua poked her head into the door and whispered to herself, "Nobody?"

She looked at the bed again, then smiled, walked to the bed, and clapped her hands, "Xiao Chong!"

Only then did Xiao Chong narrow his eyes tightly, pretending to be woken up, he rubbed his face twice, "Taohua, why are you here?"

"I'm here to bring you food." Taohua took out an oiled paper bag from her sleeve and put it on the table. "I heard from the cook that you didn't go to pick up your lunch today, so I brought it back for you."

"Ah," Xiao Chong suddenly realized.

"You, you, you will lose your mind if the second young master is not here. The most important thing is to live well for yourself first. Do you still want to serve him for the rest of your life?"

Xiao Chong sat up from the bed, took the oiled paper bag, and picked two pieces of snacks from it.

Taohua watched him eat with a smile, but turned her head and saw Ye Lan's clothes that Xiao Chong was holding in her arms just now.

"Are you being lazy, falling asleep while packing the young master's clothes?"

She smiled and went to get the dress, but Xiao Chong grabbed it instinctively, and he let go only after Tao Hua looked at him puzzled, "I think it's wrinkled, so I'll iron it out and put it in the closet for Second Young Master."

"It's okay." Taohua nodded, but she still felt strange in her heart.

But she didn't care, and said, "Hurry up and eat, a servant just sent a message saying that the second young master will be back soon."

"Ah?!" Xiao Chong quickly swallowed the pastry in one gulp, threw the dregs off his body, and ran out.

Taohua stayed where she was and pouted, "You didn't even say thank you."

When he ran to the gate, just watching the carriage stop outside, Ye Lan refused Zhang Tao's intention to help him, and walked down from the carriage by herself, his face was all wrinkled together, and he didn't feel like he could relax at all. .

He was hesitating, when he looked up and saw Xiao Chong was waiting for him at the door, for some reason his heart softened, "I'm back."

"Hmm." Xiao Chong, who was planning to choke on Ye Lan, suddenly lost his temper, and asked in a very cautious tone, "Is something wrong?"

Ye Lan walked side by side with Xiao Chong, and went back to his small courtyard. He thought for a while, and laughed at himself, "Second Young Master is a bit embarrassing today, maybe the talent for plotting disappeared all of a sudden."

"It's alright, once it's born and it's cooked twice."

Xiao Chong probably knew about today's gathering in Nuanxiang Pavilion. Although some of them were idle young masters like Ye Lan, many of them were noble children who could discuss matters in front of the city lord. Ye Lan must have taken this opportunity to win over some people to support him Brother's abolitionist order.

The ease of persuading He Hui made him forget that what he was facing were big nobles who played tricks and applauded and mastered thick and black. Not only did his young persuasion become full of loopholes, but even worse The ridicule is inexhaustible.

Even Ye Lan herself did not expect such a day to come.

What he usually sees and hears is really short-lived, but people around him often care about his thoughts and don't criticize him. This is all exposed in front of outsiders.

It's really embarrassing.

But in front of Xiao Chong, Ye Lan still endured it, and felt that her decision not to take Xiao Chong was the most correct thing she did today.

I don't know why, it's good to make a fool of yourself in front of others, but not in front of Xiao Chong.

It's not because Xiao Chong is a slave with a humble status, but because Ye Lan is used to appearing stronger and less useless in front of Xiao Chong. This is the last bottom line for him to maintain his self-esteem.

"Second Young Master, otherwise I'll bring you two jugs of warm wine from the kitchen, let's drink some together." Xiao Chong looked at Ye Lan's furrowed brows and asked softly.

"I don't think so." Ye Cang's voice came from behind, and before Xiao Chong could react, Ye Cang grabbed Ye Lan by the neck and entered the room, and pushed the doors together forcefully.

Xiao Chong quickly stuck to the door and listened secretly.

"Do you know how ugly you are today!?" Ye Cang asked Ye Lan sternly.

Ye Lan didn't speak.

"The face of the entire Ye family is almost lost by you," Ye Cang pressed the heel of his palm against his forehead, "I have kept the issue of the abolition order under wraps, just waiting to entrust those people secretly." , and then gather up enough confidence to say that you are good, and you have stabbed it all out."

"Ye Lan, do you really think you are helping me, or are you just trying to show off? Huh?"

"Ye Lan, you are already twenty, brother Suan, please be more mature?"

There was a moment of silence in the room, and even Xiao Chong's heart ached.

Xiao Chong pressed against the door, pricked up his ears, and finally heard Ye Lan's timid voice, "Brother, I was wrong."
