Soft temptation

Under the vines, Xie Yanli leaned casually, the shadow fell on his face, he seemed a little lost.

The quaint windows of the old house reflected light golden light, he stood against the light, and it took a while before he said, "The situation in their family is a bit complicated."

In the summer night wind, his voice became low and deep.

When he was leaning there, he had a somewhat clear and cold demeanor.

Mother Xie was slightly taken aback, she had rarely seen such emotions in Xie Yanli.

The person leaning there turned his head and looked at the window glowing with warm light. Standing here, he could vaguely see the bustling figures inside.

And Xie Yanli's eyes were also sparkling under the faint light.

He turned his head again, raised his slender fingers, and gently pressed the center of his brows, with a slight tiredness between his brows, he explained Lou Ruan's situation clearly in a few sentences.

"She was not doing well in that family."

He put down his hand, leaned there and said something in a low voice.

Mother Xie stood there, her delicate and beautiful eyebrows gradually frowned, "Don't you even attend the wedding, it's too..."

Xie Yanli lowered his eyes, and the dim light behind him made his figure extraordinarily slender. The moment he leaned there and lowered his head, he looked like the perennial white snow on a high mountain, which could not be touched.

He lowered his brows and eyes, unable to express his emotions, "Well, I won't participate."

Mother Xie scolded in a low voice, "Since you're adopted, you should treat her well. It's really a crime for a beautiful little girl to grow up in their house."

The person who was leaning against under the dim light finally raised his head, and smiled softly at her, "Yes, it's a pain, so you can treat her better in the future?"

Xie's mother glanced at him, "What do you need to say?"

"Okay, let's go in, take her back, and go to bed early." Mother Xie stepped forward and said, "The old house is small, and there is no place for you to live."

Xie Yanli straightened up lazily, and laughed softly, "Have you already thought about how to treat her well?"

"Tsk!" Mama Xie glanced at him, "Don't worry about it."

Xie Yanli put his fingers in his pockets, with a slight smile on his lips, and followed Mama Xie into the door.

While they were out, Lou Ruan received a lot of presents.

Mostly jewellery, and good jewellery.

Of course, apart from jewelry, what makes her more uncomfortable is the enthusiasm of Xie's family.

Since she was a child, she didn't seem to be a popular person in real life. Suddenly someone was so enthusiastic about her, she was actually at a loss.

She didn't know how to respond to their enthusiasm, so she could only keep saying thank you, thank you grandpa, thank you aunt, thank you sister...

Since Xie Yanli went out, she began to feel uneasy.

So, when that slender and tall figure appeared from the darkness, she felt as if... was completely saved.

Xie Yanli stepped on the steps and walked in slowly from the darkness, his gestures were elegant and arrogant, and every step was pleasing to the eye.

He walked in front of Lou Ruan, lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the child beside her, his tone was loose and sweet, "Xu Jingjing."

The little guy was sitting next to Lou Ruan, holding Lou Ruan's hand with his two little hands, and was playing with Lou Ruan's fingers with his head down.

She heard the sound and looked up, "What's wrong?"

Xie Yanli's tone was steady: "Let go of your sister-in-law's hand."

Xu Jingjing raised her head, although she was a little bit reluctant, she still let go. She jumped off the sofa and obediently moved her seat to Xie Yanli.

Xie Yanli did not go over to sit beside her, but turned to look at Mr. Xie, who was sitting across from Lou Ruan, smiling, "Grandpa, it's getting late today, so I'll take her back first."

Mr. Xie rested his hands on the crutches, his eyes were still bent, although he still wanted to continue chatting with Lou Ruan, but he also knew that it was late, so he nodded, "Okay, let's go back."

After speaking, he looked at Lou Ruan again, smiled and said, "Ruan Ruan, come here often in the future."

Lou Ruan nodded lightly, said goodbye to the Xie family members in the room, and then stood beside Xie Yanli.

She stood next to Xie Yanli, and Mr. Xie couldn't stop being happy, it's a good match!

What a match!

"Grandpa, see you next time."

"Okay, see you next time!"

When Lou Ruan got into the car, Mother Xie came over and touched her face and hair affectionately, "Ruan Ruan, where do you go to work, do you want your mother to pick you up from get off work tomorrow?"

The black Cullinan lowered the car window, Xie Yanli was unhurried, "No."

Mama Xie turned her head to look at him, pursing her lips slightly.

Thank you for the banquet: "I will pick it up, you can rest at home."

Xie's mother stared at his face for a few seconds, reluctantly let go of her hand, and smiled at Lou Ruan, "Okay, then let Ah Yan come, and call mom if you want to pick it up later." oh."

Lou Ruan nodded obediently.

Mother Xie touched her face again, "Okay, let's go back."

Lou Ruan went around and got into the car.

After the car drove out of the old house, Lou Ruan was still looking back.

Xie Yanli looked ahead and said casually, "Will it be annoying if there are too many people?"

Lou Ruan could no longer see them, she turned her head, thought for a while before shaking her head, "No."

The Xie family and the Xu family are completely different.

The Xu family has never had such a lively moment, even during the Chinese New Year, it was deserted.

The adoptive father doesn't come home often, and the adoptive mother doesn't like to be lively, and there is no sense of festive ceremony and festive atmosphere during the holidays. There will not be so many people in the family, and there will be no children like Xie Jingjing running around to hug this hug. hug that.

Although she was not used to such excitement, she would be a little at a loss and didn't know what to say, but she didn't hate this atmosphere.

"It's very lively." Lou Ruan added, "I really like it."

She curled her lips slightly, and her eyes were also dyed with a little bit of light.

Xie Yanli put his slender and beautiful finger bones on the steering wheel, and nodded casually, as long as he doesn't hate it.

Thanks to the family is more.

Lou Ruan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked back at the back seat, where there were a lot of gifts, including the precious emerald ring given by the old man.

She looked at Xie Yanli, and briefly glanced at his picturesque profile, "You can take those things away."

It is too much and too precious.

Rings, brooches, earrings, bracelets...

Nothing is bad.

Nothing is worthless.

Take out any of them and sell them casually, which is the cost of an ordinary person's life.

"It's too precious." Lou Ruan tilted her head, her eyes fell on those things in the back seat, and she couldn't help adding another sentence.

Looking intently at the person in front of him, his eyes paused slightly, he raised his eyes, his eyes still fell on the front, "It's all their wishes, you can take it if you give it to you."

Lou Ruan: "...how can I do that? Among other things, the things that grandpa gave me seem to be grandma's things. They must be for granddaughter-in-law. I..."

She paused and did not continue speaking.
