Lewis and Hughes turned and entered the room.Liu Xiusi closed the door leading to the terrace casually, and put one hand on Lewis' shoulder.Although they were brothers, such physical contact was relatively rare, so that the weight from the shoulders made Lewis flustered a little unsuitably.

Liu Xiusi's demeanor looked quite natural, as if they were such good brothers who often hooked their shoulders from before to now.

"Come here." Liu Xiusi pushed open a thick red oak door with one hand, inviting Lewis to enter the room.

After Lewis walked into the room, he looked around, and saw that the inside was the same as the downstairs, with a warm and simple style. The furniture in the whole room was mainly made of wood, and the air still exuded a slight fragrance of sandalwood.At the same time, he also noticed that there were already some daily necessities in the room, which was a bit messy, and it was obvious that there were people living there.

"Is this my room?" Lewis asked as if to confirm.

"It's yours." Liu Xius nodded, "It's mine too."

With that said, Liu Xiusi sat down casually on the dark green sofa, and picked up an unfinished book beside the sofa.It seems that Hughes has already lived here.

"Huh?" Lewis asked puzzled, "We live in the same room?"

"Yes, this room is very big." Liu Xiusi turned the pages of the book nonchalantly, "Is there any problem?"

"I..." Lewis didn't know where the awkwardness was, but he felt that it was not good to show a refusal, so he said with a dry laugh, "I thought this house was very big and there would be many spare rooms."

"The house is very big, but the room here is also very big. I was an unexpected visitor, and I came here unexpectedly, so I finally packed up a guest room for me. It's your turn, and there is nothing more to give." Liu Xiusi He explained while reading, "Are you allowed to live with the servants? You agree, but I don't agree."

This statement is also very reasonable.

Lewis also pretended to be very calm, and sat down on the sofa opposite Liu Xiusi.

There is a tall full-length mirror diagonally opposite the sofa, through which Lewis sees himself.Lewis' hair, which had always been meticulously groomed, looked a little disheveled because of running around, and his face turned pale because of the cold, looking a little embarrassed.

Lewis also noticed that he was wearing a dark, unfamiliar coat in the mirror.Lewis touched the coat with his fingers, felt the warm texture of wool, and his heart suddenly shook: This seems to be my brother's clothes...

Lewis then remembered the scene when Liu Xius put the clothes on him just now, and he remembered that Liu Xius even said such nonsense as "I promise you whatever you say"... To be honest, Lewis really didn't believe it Hughes would promise him anything.

However, Lewis rubbed his cold palms and said tentatively, "I'm here to discuss something with you..."

"Oh?" Liu Xiusi raised his eyes from the pages he was reading, "So you came here specially to find me?"

if not?If it wasn't for Liu Xiusi, Lewis wouldn't even know that there is such a place in the world that doesn't shit!

——But it was a little embarrassing for Lewis to admit it.Lewis hesitated for a while before slowly saying, "Because the situation is urgent..."

"What's urgent?" Liu Xiusi said calmly.

"Of course it's a matter of the board of directors! They're already planning to kick you out and want to buy back your shares. Don't tell me you don't know!" Lewis was also fed up with Liu Xiusi's nonchalant attitude, his tone With a bit of sullenness, "You have actually expected it! But hiding in this place, have you ever considered..."

"What have you considered?" Liu Xiusi asked back, "Have you considered fighting back against them? Don't you know the company's century-old regulations? People without blood relations cannot hold so many shares. Even if I have a way, I can't." A way to rewrite your own DNA."

Lewis was really angry with him: "Are you so negative? I can't believe it! I'm still doing it for you..."

"For me?" Liu Xiusi was very interested, as if he wanted to hear what Lewis said next.

Lewis couldn't go on talking, and after a long silence, he said, "You promise me everything you just said!"

"Yes, that's what I said." Liu Xiusi nodded.

"You can't go back on your word," Lewis said seriously.

Hughes also answered seriously: "I don't regret it."

Lewis stared intently at Liu Xius's face, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, pinched the clothes on his shoulders, the clothes belonged to Hughes, and there was a faint glow from the collar that belonged to Hughes. the smell of...

"Don't leave." Lewis didn't know that his tone sounded like pleading.

Perhaps Lewis' tone sounded too pitiful, and Liu Xius' expression became extremely gentle, like the moonlight covered by the snow tonight.

Liu Xius put down the book in his hand, stretched out his hands, and held Lewis' cold hand tightly: "Didn't I say that I won't leave?"

"Is this true?" Lewis looked at Liu Xiusi incredulously, "You won't leave the company? Won't you leave home?"

"That depends on how you define 'home'." Liu Xiusi replied.

This answer did not satisfy Lewis.Lewis even thought pessimistically that since Liu Xius had no blood relationship with him, then the "home" he was in could not be regarded as Xius's "home".

Hughes held Lewis's hand tightly, making Lewis' cold hands gradually return to a little temperature. "Of course," Liu Xiusi said gently but firmly, "I will not leave you."

It was hard for Lewis to say how he felt when he heard these words, because the emotions were too complicated and indescribable. He only knew that his eyes were warming up: "Then... that's good..."

Liu Xiusi's fingertips brushed the corners of Lewis' eyes: "I can't imagine..."

Lewis is more inseparable from himself than he imagined...

——Liu Xiusi secretly felt joyful in his heart.

A part of Liu Xius hoped that Lewis would not be sad, but the other part of him who was not angry hoped that Lewis would cry at this moment... It would be better if he would cry heartbroken and fall into his arms.

—What a bad idea.

Liu Xiusi said: "Don't think about anything now, just rest early."

Lewis shook his head: "If I don't speak clearly, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep..."

"Then what do you want to say?" Liu Xiusi looked at him very patiently, "I'm listening."

"You should come back as soon as possible and take charge," Lewis said.

Liu Xiusi raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you think those old people on the board of directors will allow it?"

"Why not? You're still chairman of the board!" Lewis said firmly. "And you will be."

"After they take away my equity, they can vote me off the board. Then I'm not."

"None of them has the right to do this!" Lewis looked at Liu Xiusi firmly, and expressed his thoughts, "If you transfer the shares to me, then they can't move you...as long as you believe me. "

Hughes didn't look surprised, with a gratified smile on his face: "Of course I believe you."

On the contrary, Lewis was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he could win the trust of Liu Xiusi so easily.He has prepared a series of rhetoric, planning how to swear to Liu Xius his loyalty, how to convince him that he will never betray him after getting the shares... Lewis even prepared a The agreement stated that he would not influence Liu Xiusi's future decisions within the company...

Now it seems that these preparations seem to be useless.

Lewis thought Hughes was a cautious and suspicious person.

"You trust me?" Lewis didn't expect it to be that simple.

Liu Xiusi did not speak, silently opened the drawer, took out an agreement, and handed it to Lewis.

Lewis took a look and was stunned - this is an agreement that has been drawn up to transfer the equity to himself.In other words, Liu Xiusi had already prepared to transfer the equity to Lewis early on.

"This..." Lewis pinched the corner of the agreement, his eyes widened, and the eyeballs looked like transparent amber, "You already...?"

"Yes." Liu Xiusi smiled, looking happy, "It seems that we really have a good understanding!"

Looking at the equity transfer agreement in black and white, Lewis was both shocked and moved.

It turned out that Liu Xiusi left early in the morning and placed the bet on himself... What a surprising trust!

"You..." Lewis still felt a little unbelievable, "You planned to transfer the equity to me from the beginning?"

"Yes." Liu Xiusi nodded and replied, "Surprised?"

"Yeah." Lewis nodded in a daze, and asked again, "But why didn't you mention it to me? Don't you worry that I will refuse?"

"Will you?" Liu Xiusi asked.

Lewis thought about it for a while, then nodded: "I think it will. Most likely."

If Liu Xiusi put the equity transfer agreement in front of him at the beginning, Lewis would be very surprised, and the pressure would suddenly come overwhelming, so he would probably nervously refuse without mental preparation, thinking that he was not only difficult to be It is also worthy of the great responsibility.

"Yes, of course." Liu Xiusi nodded in agreement, "So I didn't mention it to you."

"Huh?" Lewis didn't understand for a moment.

Liu Xiusi had to explain in more detail: "The best way not to be rejected is not to ask."

"This sentence is...completely nonsensical!" Lewis criticized unconsciously, but he also faintly felt that there was some truth in this sentence, "Then since you knew I would refuse, you didn't propose it to me because of this, so why? Still prepared this agreement?"

"I can't mention it, but you can." Liu Xiusi said, "You will reject me, but I will not reject you."

This sounds more like nonsense...

"How did you know I'd mention it?" Lewis asked.

"I really don't know about this. I can only hope that when the board of directors besieged me, you would show kindness and be willing to save me." Hughes smiled faintly, "If you don't mention it, I can only Do something else."

"'Something else'?" Lewis became more and more confused the more he listened. "Well, I assume that you have prepared the equity transfer document, but you didn't propose it to me because you thought I would refuse. Then you went to Eastern Europe alone Ready for 'something else'. Is that what you mean?"

"That's right." Liu Xiusi smiled like a teacher encouraging motivated students, "The board of directors will do something, of course I would have thought of it. What I didn't expect is that you will do it too."

"I...?" Lewis was a little dazed, thought for a while, and understood a little bit, "You mean, I made them unable to hold a board meeting? Or is it because I came here to find you?"

"It's all. I'm very surprised." Liu Xiusi's face became more smiling, "I'm also very surprised."

This sentence is the truth.When Lewis came charging forward, Liu Xius was indeed hit by surprise.He didn't expect Lewis to do this for himself.

Lewis was thinking about other things, and continued to ask his own question: "Then if I do nothing and you do nothing, wouldn't you have been removed from the board of directors a few days ago?"

"Really?" Liu Xiusi smiled faintly, "It may not be that easy."

Looking at Liu Xiusi's confident look, Lewis remembered what Liu Xiusi said just now, "If you don't mention it, I can only do other things".Lewis figured it out, knowing that Liu Xius must be well prepared, and Lewis seemed a little ridiculous when he thought of his trivial efforts.He smiled wryly and nodded: "Yes, I was too worried. In fact, if you refuse to let go, I believe you have many other ways to maintain your position. After all, no one can beat you..."

"That's not necessarily true." Liu Xiusi looked at Lewis with a smile, and shook Lewis' hand, "Would you like to try?"

"Try what?" Lewis didn't quite understand.

"Play with me." Liu Xiusi's expression and tone seemed to be joking.

Feeling suddenly embarrassed, Lewis pulled his hand out of Liu Xius' palm.

Liu Xiusi felt his palm was empty, and stroked his palm unconsciously, as gently as if snowflakes were melting in his palm.

"Okay," Liu Xiusi stood up, "It's getting late, go to sleep."

"Sleep?" Lewis didn't react quickly, and was confused for about a second before remembering the current situation.

He and Liu Xiusi will rest in the same room overnight.

"Oh, okay. You're right, it's getting late." Lewis replied flatly, "How many beds are there in this room?"

"One piece." Liu Xiusi raised his index finger, "No more, no less."

"A lot? There are two of us," Lewis said.

Liu Xiusi smiled: "Yes. But the bed is big, you can rest assured."
