It was there that Lewis and Hughes locked lips for a long time.

Lewis was dazed, and leaned on Hughes' shoulder again, and said, "We've been standing here for too long..."

In the grass, Mary, who heard the words, squatted and thought: "You guys have known it for too long?"

"Not long," Hughes laughed. "We could stay here all day."

Mary said angrily, "I can't!"

Fortunately, Lewis' coyness made Hughes give up.Hughes took Lewis's hand and continued walking slowly.

Mary was finally relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and thought: For the next period of time, I would rather stay in the room eating instant noodles and reading a book in a daze, and never go out to the leisure area to eat, drink and have fun!

Sure enough, in the following time, Hughes and Lewis wandered around the garden, but never met Mary again.It can be seen that Mary is afraid to go out because she has been summoned.

However, there is nothing interesting here, Lewis and Hughes wandered around for a while, and then returned to the house.

After returning, Hughes called the concierge and asked in a gentle tone, if he could cut off a branch of peach blossom in the garden and send it to the house to grow.

Lewis couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard what Hughes said on the phone.Just now he and Hughes talked about picking peach blossoms in the peach grove, but it was just casual, but he didn't expect Hughes to remember it because he had a heart.Moreover, Hughes still remembered that Lewis had to "observe public morality" and could not make any changes at will. Therefore, Hughes also called the garden to ask for permission.

The concierge department readily agreed, and said that they could directly send the staff of the garden to pick them, and then deliver them to their rooms, without bothering the distinguished guests to do it themselves.

After hearing this, Hughes ended the call with satisfaction, and said to Lewis: "Look, this is a permitted behavior, and it is not a violation of public morality."

Lewis asked, "If you are an ordinary tourist, can you fold flowers?"

"It shouldn't be possible." Hughes remembered that the peach groves in other areas had notices of "no picking".

Lewis smiled and said, "Just do it. This is not a permitted behavior, but because of our identities, they have no choice but to agree?"

"How is it 'reluctantly agreeing'? Maybe it is 'graciously agreeing'?" Hughes said very proudly, "You know, people of our status, many people are trying their best to give gifts to please, but there is no way out."

Lewis thought for a moment and said, "I only found out about this recently."

Before, as the young master of a rich family, Lewis naturally received courtesy everywhere.It wasn't until recently that he became the president of the "Proud Eagle" group that he realized that he was not only "received" but even "enshrined".It is true that many people try their best to "pay tribute" to themselves.This made Lewis flattered, but also afraid to accept it.

In the past, Lewis had received expensive gifts, but they were just occasions for outdated festivals. But after he became the president, others wished to give him big gifts on "Nurses' Day" and "Arbor Day".

Lewis squinted at Hughes and said, "Did you receive any big gifts when you were the chairman?"

"Me?" Hughes smiled, "Is it necessary?"

"That's true." Lewis nodded unconsciously.

Hughes looks greedy for money, but he is "a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way."

Not to mention Lewis, he never indulged in money.

"I don't care about other people's things." Hughes stroked Lewis's hair and said with a smile, "I accept everything you give me."

As Hughes said this, Lewis suddenly remembered the "Scratched Beauty's Face" plant he had given him.

Lewis remembers it as a casual joke, before asking someone to deliver the flowers to the office.Later, he heard people say that Hughes's office does not put any living things, including goldfish and cacti, let alone flowers.Lewis only said that when he gave the gift, he did not consider the feelings of the recipient.

It wasn't until that day that Lewis stumbled across the "scratched beauty's face" in the corner of the roof garden, and he didn't know that this flower had been made into an eternal flower and was treasured and kept in the garden.

Lewis's thoughts moved slightly.

Why is he so special to me?

Why did he make the flowers I sent into eternal flowers and hide them?

If it's just brotherhood...

Lewis thought that when he was determined to pursue Hughes, he thought it would be a long way to go.After all, it is not so easy to change from brother to lover.Lewis intends to step by step and gradually break into Hughes' defense.But I didn't expect that this "offensive" would be successful in one fell swoop, without any effort.Is it because Lewis is so powerful that he easily overwhelmed Hughes' defense, or...

Hughes never fortified?

Lewis sat down on the carved wooden couch, and suddenly said, "Brother, will you be particularly surprised when you find out that I want to pursue you?"

Hughes was stunned, and said with a smile: "You asked me this question, which surprised me more."

Seeing Hughes so calm, Lewis understood a little bit in his heart. He felt as if he had been teased, so he was naturally a little upset.

He pretended to be calm and continued to ask: "Then when did you understand that I was pursuing you?"

Hughes thought for a while and said, "It's time for you to give me the battered egg skin."

Otherwise, how could Hughes taste sweet even after eating bitter burnt food?

Thinking of the layer of battered egg skin, Lewis felt shy and embarrassed: "Is that so..."

After coughing twice, Lewis calmed down, and continued to probe, "Then weren't you surprised at the time? We are brothers, how can we..."

"That's right," Hughes nodded, resting his chin in one hand, and blinking at Lewis, "What do you think? Why are you pursuing me all of a sudden? You don't even care about brotherhood? You are the most powerful person in our family." A civic-minded one."

Lewis blushed again.

"What kind of brother..." Lewis hurriedly found an excuse to explain, "We are not...we are not real brothers."

Hughes' expression darkened, but he quickly raised his smiling face and said, "If we are brothers, then it won't work, will it?"

Lewis didn't turn his head around for a moment, and froze there: "Brother?"

"It's nothing." Hughes pressed Lewis' shoulder, "It's enough that you like me."

Lewis blushed hotly, completely forgetting that he was going to question Hughes.

The eyes of the two met, and there was a bit of affection. It was an ambiguous moment, but the doorbell rang.

Hughes got up to agree, opened the door, and saw a staff member holding peach blossoms.Hughes thanked him, tipped him, and turned back to the house.

At this moment, Lewis's face was no longer red, and he returned to his usual appearance. He looked over curiously and saw Hughes holding a mahogany vase in his hand, and a branch of pink thin plum was inserted in the vase.

All Lewis said was, "It's a beautiful sight."

Hughes smiled and said, "Where to put it, you say?"

Looking at the bright pink of the plum blossoms, Lewis recalled the Xifu crabapple from before, and unconsciously replied, "Put it by the bedroom window, it will look beautiful under the moonlight."

"Okay, just do as the president said." Hughes laughed jokingly, agreed with his mouth, and sent the flowers to the bedroom on the second floor with all his strength.

Lewis felt teased, and just said it was boring. He was still sitting on the couch in the living room on the first floor, flipping through his phone.By coincidence, the phone rang at this time.

Lewis answered the phone, and a familiar male voice rang out.

This person is not someone else, but a servant of Liu's house.It is said that although Lewis has gained the trust of Old Liu, he is still not at ease. He thinks that Uncle Qi may have new moves.Therefore, Lewis placed a few servants in Liu's house as eyes and ears, so that he could keep track of what was going on at home even though he was in a strange city.

The servant who was placed only said: "Master Qi came to see the master today. We talked for a long time in the study, and when Master Qi left, his expression was not right."

"Know what they said?" Lewis asked.

"I don't know." The servant said, "Master doesn't allow people to come near the study."

"Okay, I see." Lewis nodded and hung up the phone.

The people Lewis placed were all newcomers, so they were unlikely to gain the trust of Old Liu.The study is Lao Liu's "heavy place", and it's normal that ordinary people can't get close to it.But Lewis is not an ordinary person. It is natural for him to enter Lao Liu's study in the name of talking about work.Before he went to Mocheng, he had already put a monitor in Lao Liu's study in advance, but he just put it on, and he didn't listen to the content in it, and he only hoped that he wouldn't need it.

just now...

Lewis sighed, and called up the automatically uploaded monitoring record from his mobile phone, selected the recording at the time the servant said, then plugged in the earphones, and eavesdropped.

"It's really 'the tiger is rejected by the front door, and the wolf is entered by the back door'." Old Liu's sarcasm sounded.

Uncle Qi said with a friendly smile, "Hey, don't you understand? You and I are of the same mind!"

I only heard Lao Liu yelling at Uncle Qi, and Uncle Qi was scolded quietly.After a while, when Old Liu finished scolding, Uncle Seven said, "I'm all for the family. Otherwise, why do you think I elected you to be the chairman?"

"I only have one son, Lewis. If you don't let him live in peace, you are against me!" Old Liu said angrily, "Not to mention, you actually want to frame him and put him in prison..."

"No, this matter is not enough to send Lewis to jail, you and I both know it." Seventh Uncle denied it flatly, and then said reassuringly, "Don't you understand that I am not targeting Lewis, I am targeting Hughes! Lewis is not at all right now. It’s aimed at Hughes, and he’s being used as a weapon by Hughes.”

"Nonsense!" Lao Liu scolded, "Lewis is my son, of course he is towards me!"

"How did he help Hughes deceive us before, have you forgotten?"

"That...that was before!" Old Liu said, "Now he has seen Hughes' true face clearly."

Uncle Seven sighed, and said, "I know, I can't talk you out. But time will tell. The best way is that you will always be the chairman, and at the same time keep the equity in your palm. After ten or eight years Yes, of course it will take a long time to see people's hearts. Why rush for a while?"

"Ten years or eight years?" Lao Liu almost jumped up, "You might as well wait for the next life!"

"How can you be so exaggerated?" Uncle Seven said, "Lewis is still young, and you are also quite healthy. Why are you in the next life?"

But Lao Liu suddenly sighed: "I can't wait!"

Uncle Seven panicked, "What do you mean?"

Don't say it's Uncle Seven, Lewis was also panicked when he heard this: What?Could it be that his father was really terminally ill?

Old Liu pondered for a long time before saying, "Acquaintances at the police station told me that the Interpol came to investigate what happened back then..."

Uncle Seven was also silent.

Hearing this sentence, Lewis's heart skipped a beat: Interpol... what happened back then...

Uncle Qi paused, and said, "After so long, why do you want to investigate all of a sudden?"

Old Liu said: "Lambert's car was picked up, and the problem was discovered! It was Hughes who picked it up! He must have known something, and he just wanted to take the opportunity to kill me!"

Uncle Seven took a breath and was speechless for a long time——and so was Lewis.

Lewis' heart jumped up from his chest, as if it was about to fall out of his mouth.

Da da--

It was the sound of approaching footsteps from upstairs.

Lewis subconsciously exited the eavesdropping software interface and put on a calm expression.

Hughes walked to his side and said, "The flowers have been placed according to your instructions, Mr. President."

Lewis took off the headset, looked at Hughes, and said, "Sit down for me."

It was the first time that Hughes saw Lewis so serious. Although he didn't understand why, he sat down obediently.

Lewis looked at Hughes, his heart fluttered for a while, but he said, "Why did you pick up mother's car?"

Hughes was stunned by this question.

But he quickly reacted——

"Of course it's to keep her body from being lost. I didn't want to salvage the car, but the body. It's just that I'm too old to salvage the body, only the car." Husley replied bluntly, wrinkled again Eyebrow asked suspiciously, "Who did you listen to?"

Lewis rolled his eyes and said, "It's Interpol Kone. He said he's investigating, but you won't let him tell me."

Hughes was a little surprised, pointing to Lewis' headset and cell phone, and said, "Could it be that you were talking to him just now? How did you get in touch with him?"

But Lewis said: "No, he contacted me. He just thought he should let me know." After speaking, Lewis said coldly, "It's not like you, who actually kept such a big matter from me."

Hughes pondered: "He didn't say anything before, but chose to inform you at this time. Could it be that there has been some progress?"

Lewis didn't expect Hughes to speculate like this, and he was stunned for a moment, fearing that this lie would not be able to cover it.Coincidentally, he was still a bit smart, and pretended to be twisted: "I didn't see you tell me the information he shared with you. Why should I tell you when he told me the progress?"

Hughes was also fooled by Lewis. He thought that Lewis was really losing his temper, so he shook his head and said, "I am wrong about this. But I am just afraid that you will be scared after hearing it."

Lewis' eyes widened, his face full of disbelief: "I'm not a child. What's there to be afraid of?"

Hughes reached out, hugged Lewis, and said, "But I can't help but always treat you as a child."

Lewis suddenly remembered the various protections that Hughes had given him in the past, layer by layer, airtight, like a glass cover for shelter from the wind.He is like the rose in the glass cover, which has never even touched the hottest sunlight.

Lewis sighed and said, "You don't have to protect me like this. I'm not a child, nor a flower in a greenhouse."

"I hope you are." Hughes sighed. "Do you understand my heart?"

Lewis couldn't help recalling the past. Now that he thinks about it, Hughes has protected him from many winds and rains, while Lewis is carefree and free from disasters and diseases, but he has not noticed it for many years.

"I understand..." Lewis seemed to have been opened up, his eyes were shining like stars, "When did you start to like me?"

Hughes replied, "When it shouldn't have started."

With that said, Hughes' kiss was pressed on Lewis' lips.
