Xiang Yi ignored the message, he was going to pretend he didn't see it.

Knocking on his cousin's room, he took the fruit salad made by his aunt and went in.

Ren Xixi was playing with her mobile phone, and when she saw Xiang Yi coming in, she quickly turned off the screen.

"What are you doing? You're so afraid that I'll see you. Maybe you're chatting with your boyfriend." Xiang Yi joked, "Hey, eat some fruit."

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't have a boyfriend." Ren Xixi took an apple and put it in her mouth, with an uncomfortable expression on her face.

"Xixi, do you have something on your mind? You didn't eat much just now, and you were always absent-minded."

Ren Xixi stopped talking, she just lowered her head and bit her lip.

"Xixi, don't keep things in your heart, brother is here." Xiang Yi sat beside her.

"Brother, I saw my dad." She seemed to muster up her courage before saying this.

She is very nice to Xiang Dong and Xiang Yi, but Xiang Dong is 17 years older than him, and the generation gap is too big, so she is closer to Xiang Yi.Therefore, things that have been held back in my heart for a long time can only be said in front of Xiang Yi.

Xiang Yi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He didn't expect his cousin to bring up this topic suddenly. Since childhood, his cousin has asked his aunt about his father many times, and the answer from his aunt is always "died early". As Xixi grows up, she no longer cares about it. The family is even more silent about the role of father.

"I know Jiang Liru is my father." Ren Xixi laughed at herself when she said this, "I also know that he has never been responsible for our mother and daughter, and I also know that you beat him in the hospital. "

"You really know a lot." Xiang Yi asked, "You said you saw him, so he probably went looking for you?"

"Not looking for me, he went to school to see his precious daughter, I saw them, it's really interesting to say, my half-sister is actually in the same school and department as me, two grades older than me. I really hate him, scumbag."

There was deep resentment in Xixi's eyes.

Xiang Yi held Ren Xixi's hand, it was cold.

"Xixi, even without your father's care, you still have two elder brothers." Xiang Yiyi didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Hey, stop comforting me. Sometimes, I feel that I am much happier than you and elder brother. At least my mother is still around. I have no other intentions. I just want you to know that I am not sad. .”

Before Xiang Yi could speak, his phone rang loudly. Mu Zhongqian called, and he hung up.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, he wants to put his family first, and he doesn't want to serve his benefactor.

As soon as I hung up, it rang again, endlessly, unrelentingly.

"Hurry up and answer the phone, your girlfriend should be in a hurry." Ren Xixi made a grimace.

"I don't have a girlfriend." Xiang Yi raised his eyebrows, exited his cousin's room, and went to the balcony to answer the phone.

"Where are you?" The tone on the other end of the phone was very rude.

"My aunt, isn't today the Mid-Autumn Festival, I want to be with my family." He first politely refused no matter what kind of request Mu Zhongqian made next.

"Family is always the most important thing to you, isn't it?" The voice sounded gloomy.

"Yes." Xiang Yi slandered, what kind of problem is this, isn't it obvious.

The phone hung up suddenly, and there was only a cold "beep" sound.

baffling……

Just as Xiang Yi put his phone in his trouser pocket, it rang again, it was still Mu Zhongqian.

"What's wrong?" Xiang Yi asked.

"what about me?"

"What about you?" Xiang Yi was at a loss.

"Am I not important at all?"

"Uh……"

"answer me……"

"Are you going to play the domineering president's routine?" Xiang Yi smiled.

"Don't interrupt, answer my question." Mu Zhongqian's tone was beyond doubt.

"It's a little bit, you are the bread and butter." Xiang Yi joked.

"I'm not joking with you, be serious." The tone was cold and serious.

"Stop making trouble, you are different from your family." Xiang Yi turned his head to look at his aunt on the sofa and Xiang Dong who was holding shoulders with her. The family is the only one he has. Such a picture is common, but It was the consolation in his heart that could resolve all hardships.

"What's the difference?"

How should I answer this, "It's just different, what's wrong with you today? You're so aggressive."

The other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Xiaosi, I drank too much, I'm very sad, can you come and accompany me?" This time, the tone was much softer.

Mu Zhongqian seldom talked to him in such a weak tone, which was very unusual and a little unexpected, but he couldn't bear to refuse him.

Ten minutes later, Xiang Yi appeared outside Mu Zhongqian's community.

Standing at the gate of Zeruntai Community, he hesitated.

I remembered that the last time I entered this community was three years ago.At that time, when he left with sadness and humiliation, he secretly swore that he would never come back to this place to look for Mu Zhongqian again...

The status quo is, slap in the face.

He got into the supermarket at the entrance of the community and bought a few mooncakes. After all, it was the holiday, so empty-handed is not good.

Xiang Yi went upstairs, went to the door, looked at the fingerprint lock, just moved his finger over it, then put it back, forget it, it's been three years, how could Mu Zhongqian not change it, why should he be a clown, So he rang the doorbell.

The moment the door opened, Mu Zhongqian almost rushed forward and hugged Xiang Yi into his arms.

"Little Four, I miss you so much!"

A strong smell of alcohol hits the face.

"You are so cruel. From the day you slammed the door of the car and left, to today it has been 25 days without a single call or message." Mu Zhongqian's voice was full of indescribable loss.

"You don't have either." Xiang Yi said pretending to be relaxed.

"Yes, you will never give in..." Mu Zhongqian sighed deeply as he said.

"Can you let go of me first, I'm strangled..." Xiang Yi complained, looking through Mu Zhongqian's shoulder, and looked at the room. The log-colored furniture and simple decoration style were exactly the same as he remembered.

"No, stay with me."

"How much have you drank?" Xiang Yi remembered that Mu Zhongqian was a good drinker, and he had never seen Mu Zhongqian drunk like this.

"Not much." There was a touch of sadness in his tone.

Xiang Yi didn't move, he just stood at the porch, letting Mu Zhongqian hold him, feeling his breath.

Xiang Yi was 1.8 meters tall, but Mu Zhongqian was a head taller than him, so he hung on him like this, and without letting go, Xiang Yi moved with difficulty and the two collapsed on the sofa together.

"Isn't today the Mid-Autumn Festival, haven't you gone back to reunite with your family?" Xiang looked at Mu Zhongqian beside him, his face was flushed under the dim light.

Hearing this, Mu Zhongqian did not speak, but retracted the arm that was on Xiang Yi's shoulder. He slowly picked up the cigarette case from the table, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled heavily.

The whole movement is slow and graceful.

Amidst the smog, Xiang Yi clearly read a trace of sadness in Mu Zhongqian's eyes that he had never seen before.

"Today is my mother's death day, 15 years..."

Mu Zhongqian is now 28 years old. 15 years ago, he was only 13 years old, and he was still a junior high school student.

Xiang Yi was stunned, he had heard Mu Zhongqian mention that his parents had left him since he was a child, and he grew up with relatives.

But he never knew that the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day when the family was supposed to be reunited, turned out to be the anniversary of his mother's death.

When tens of thousands of households were laughing and laughing, he suffered the pain alone, Xiang Yi suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Mu Zhongqian.

Xiang Yi was at a loss for words, he was not very good at comforting others, but instinctively stretched out his hand and patted Mu Zhongqian on the shoulder.

"Except for me, no one remembers that it was her death day. Every year on this day, I have to go back to the old house for the so-called family etiquette. , everyone laughed and had a good time, but no one remembered that today is the anniversary of my mother's death.

I don't want to appear in that hypocritical home at all, I don't want to pretend to be a role that I can't do, and I don't want to face those who forced my mother to death.I just want to stay quietly on this day, accompany my mother, and talk..."

Xiang Yi clearly saw that Mu Zhongqian's eyes were red.

In his impression, Mu Zhongqian, the vice president of Hongchang Group, is young, promising, and successful in his career. He should be the kind of free man who can do whatever he wants. Unexpectedly, he has so much helplessness.

Xiang Yi didn't know all that Mu Zhongqian said. He suddenly realized that he actually knew very little about Mu Zhongqian, and Mu Zhongqian knew everything about him...

"In the future Mid-Autumn Festival, I will accompany you to visit my aunt's grave, don't you feel sad?" Xiang Yi really couldn't bear to look at the lonely and disappointed look in Mu Zhongqian's eyes.

Mu Zhongqian suddenly rushed forward, hugged Xiang Yi, and buried his head on his shoulder.
