Li Xiao felt somewhat guilty. In fact, the things that happened on the program set could have been avoided if he had paid more attention to An Ruo.

He had long known that Sui and Tang Dynasty disliked An Ruo because of him, plus Zhao Minmin's little actions towards An Ruo, both overtly and secretly.

If he had warned An Ruo in advance, or resolved the conflict with Sui and Tang, the following things might not have happened.

But he didn't do that. He chose to sit back and watch.

Perhaps it can be said directly that he wants to use someone else's help to solve An Ruo.

Ling Shaoqing suddenly came to his study alone, and he panicked. Although he was not involved in those things, he knew about it and even pushed it silently behind the scenes. He was afraid that Ling Shaoqing came to him this time to settle matters with him.

After entering the study, Ling Shaoqing pointed to the sofa on the balcony: "Sit down."

Li Xiao was very comfortable coming here in the past, but today he stood on the balcony, looked up at Ling Shaoqing, and saw Ling Shaoqing bring a bottle of red wine: "Would you like a couple of drinks?"

Where is he in the mood to drink now?

Ling Shaoqing took two more cups and sat down: "Actually, I feel sorry for you for this matter."

"Huh?" Li Xiao was a little confused.

He turned back to Ling Shaoqing and sat down opposite him. Ling Shaoqing handed him the wine glass. The two touched it and each took a sip.

"I can't agree to what you said before."

Li Xiao was even more confused. He didn't remember what he had asked Ling Shaoqing for.

"As for you and An Ruo's cp speculation, I watched your live broadcast this time, and the whole Internet was scolding her. You have too many fans."

Li Xiao understood instantly.

In order to get Ling Shaoqing to agree to An Ruo participating in the show with him, he had found such a reason.

In order to prevent his private love life from being exposed, he deliberately said that he wanted to get closer to An Ruo, so as to confuse the public's eyes.

Ling Shaoqing originally thought that Li Xiao wanted to compete with him for An Ruo.

It was only after she understood his sexual orientation that she felt comfortable letting Anruo go to the show with him.

Although he was a little concerned about his girl engaging in cp speculation with his brother, even though he knew it was a lie, Li Xiao rarely asked him for anything, so he still agreed.

But this time, after An Ruo was criticized by everyone on the Internet, Ling Shaoqing decided to terminate the agreement with Li Xiao.

Li Xiao's tense heart relaxed. It seemed that Ling Shaoqing did not doubt him.

"Well, this is my fault. I didn't think it through. I will find an opportunity to clarify the relationship between An Yatou and I. She is the child of a good friend, so I took more care of her. Do you think that's okay?"

Ling Shaoqing nodded: "Okay, if you clarify like this, at least your fans will not be hostile to her."

"So, this is what you came to talk to me about?"

Ling Shaoqing curled her lips: "I'm still a little curious, who is the person you like? Are you two together?"

Li Xiao drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, his eyes full of bitterness: "The person I like doesn't like me, so we probably have no chance to be together."

Ling Shaoqing frowned slightly.

Last time I heard what he meant and I was confident about it, but why is it that it has only been a few days and it's already gone?

However, Ling Shaoqing didn't want to ask more about other people's love lives. He just said: "Your circle is relatively chaotic. Don't be impatient. Take your time and you will always meet the right person."

Li Xiao suddenly leaned forward and approached Ling Shaoqing: "Do you think I am also confused?"

"You drank too much!" Ling Shaoqing did not answer his question. He stood up and walked out of the study and shouted downstairs: "Old Zhou, send Li Xiao back."

Zhou Yun responded from downstairs: "Okay, you can accompany An Yatou, we will leave now."

Ling Shaoqing didn't go downstairs to see her off, but went straight back to the room to sleep with Anruo.

Li Xiao had only been away from him for half an hour when he posted a video on his social account. The video contained the content that Ling Shaoqing hoped to clarify the relationship between him and An Ruo.

After all, it is a top-notch video. As soon as the video was posted, it became a hot search topic.

The number of comments below exceeded [-] in an instant. Fans who had scolded An Ruo in the live broadcast room because An Ruo was too close to Li Xiao apologized and expressed their support for this cute little girl.

Ling Shaoqing felt relieved after seeing the video and the relatively harmonious comment area below it.

The little girl he loves must not be scolded by irrelevant passers-by.

Since she wanted to take the entertainment industry, he had to make it as smooth as possible for her.

In the next few days, Anruo showed no signs of recovering her memory and mind. She only stayed with Ling Shaoqing every day.

Ling Shaoqing took her to all the places that children like to play.

I have been to all kinds of zoos, aquariums, and even water parks.

Every day passed with An Ruo's happy laughter. As long as she was by Ling Shaoqing's side, An Ruo's mood was very stable. Except for being playful and noisy, she was a cute and good baby at other times.

Until this afternoon...

The weather was extremely gloomy, with dark clouds over the city and thunder.

An Ruo was still taking a nap. Ling Shaoqing had a few documents to deal with, so he went to the study by himself.

Unexpectedly, a thunder suddenly woke An Ruo up.

The sky was already very dark, and An Ruo, who couldn't feel Ling Shaoqing's breath, suddenly panicked.

Thunder resounded through the sky, An Ruo was so scared that she hugged her head and shivered.

Many painful memories flashed through my mind.

She remembered that when she was a child, Zhao Minmin often locked her in an empty backyard on stormy nights.

The painful memories of the past kept flooding into her mind.

An Ruo grabbed her head in discomfort: "Don't...don't hit me...don't scold me...ah!"

Ling Shaoqing left the study door open because he was afraid that An Ruo would look for him when he woke up.

Suddenly hearing An Ruo's scream, Ling Shaoqing ran over quickly and saw An Ruo huddled in the corner of the bed, holding her head tightly, looking frightened.

"Girl!" Ling Shaoqing held her tightly in her arms to comfort her.

I could only hear An Ruo shouting: "Don't hit me...don't scold me..."

"No one will hit you! No one will scold you! An Ruo, open your eyes and see, it's uncle. Uncle will protect you."

Ling Shaoqing's breath always calmed An Ruo. When she heard his voice, felt his arms and heartbeat, An Ruo gradually calmed down.

She raised her head, and the memory images that flashed through her eyes slowly turned into Ling Shaoqing's worried and distressed eyes.

An Ruo suddenly felt that Ling Shaoqing overlapped with the figure who redeemed her in her dreams all those years.

"Uncle..."

She was still shaking slightly, and Ling Shaoqing kept apologizing: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been working while you were asleep. Don't be afraid, it's just thunder."

"Uncle..." An Ruo just called him over and over again.

Ling Shaoqing frowned slightly: "Little girl, have you remembered?"
