When Ning Yan woke up the next day, he was no longer on the sofa.

The place next to the bed has also been laid down by someone, and the quilt is a little wrinkled, and when you put your hands on it, you can even feel the residual warmth.

When Ning Yan left the bedroom, the first thing she smelled was the aroma of rice, followed by the figure busy in the kitchen.

Glancing at the clock in the living room, it showed that it was already 09:30 in the morning.

He stepped forward, still a little confused, "Why... didn't you go to work?"

Usually at this time, Liang Kaiyu had already gone to work.

If he wakes up early, he will be able to see Liang Kaiyu, and if he wakes up late, all he can see is food.

When Liang Kaiyu heard him ask this, he flipped the fried rice, "My mother said, let's go to her place for dinner today, and I took a vacation early."

Ning Yan: "... what?"

Fearing that he had heard it wrong, he confirmed it with Liang Kaiyu again, and after getting an affirmative answer, his whole expression became wrong.

It was a look of tension and bewilderment.

He hurriedly said: "Your mother, why did she see me? When did you say that? I don't want to, no, I don't need to see her, do I?"

Liang Kaiyu could see his nervousness.

But what he said made Liang Kaiyu a little angry.

Liang Kaiyu put down the shovel and said in a deep voice, "Why is there no need to meet?"

Ning Yan had seen him drunk, and still had a little tenderness towards him. Hearing this, she was not angry, and said patiently: "Then tell me, why do I want to see her?"

Liang Kaiyu put out the fire and gave up cooking completely.

He still had the discomfort of a hangover, and Ning Yan's words gave him the illusion that Ning Yan might leave at any time.

Otherwise, why don't you want to see Fang Jingshi?

It's not like I haven't seen it before.

Looking at his expression, Ning Yan knew that he was thinking wildly again, and explained: "I have no other intentions..."

He just felt that meeting Fang Jingshi at such a time was a bit too sudden.

Liang Kaiyu interrupted him: "I want you to meet."

Ning Yan paused.

He is not a fool, and Liang Kaiyu's uneasiness can be seen. The relationship between the two is still on the verge of collapse. Not only Liang Kaiyu, but even he...doesn't know what the future of the two of them will be.

After the reunion, apart from Liang Kaiyu approaching him for a kiss, the two of them haven't even had any intimate actions during this period of time.

It's not like a couple, let alone brothers.

Ning Yan froze for a while, and then opened his mouth amid Liang Kaiyu's silence and uneasiness, hesitantly said: "You can continue cooking."

Liang Kaiyu didn't move.

Ning Yan said: "I'll follow you."

Liang Kaiyu's ice-like face showed traces of melting. In fact, he was a little surprised by his aggressiveness.

But he couldn't make him and Ning Yan apologize.

In his heart, he still hated Ning Yan.

Even when they get along with Ning Yan, love can be greater than hate, but hate will pop up from time to time and stab them suddenly.

Ning Yan showed unprecedented obedience to this.

On the way to Fang Jingshi's place, Ning Yan asked, "Do I need to buy her some presents?"

Liang Kaiyu didn't even think about it, "It's not a date to meet parents, there is nothing to buy."

Ning Yan didn't speak.

Seeing his silence from the corner of the eye, Liang Kaiyu tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

He lowered his eyes and slowed down his voice, "You can buy it, it doesn't need to be too expensive."

Actually, needless to say, Ning Yan would not buy too expensive ones.

After all, now that Liang Kaiyu has become the big boss, Fang Jingshi, as his mother, must have already eaten all the good things and delicacies that should be eaten, and there is no need for him to buy them.

Even so, after Ning Yan got off the car, she still carefully selected the gift.

The place where Fang Jingshi lives is very secluded, just like her character, quiet and remote.However, although it is secluded, it is not simple, and it is also a large villa.

After entering, there was no nanny working, only Fang Jingshi was alone.

Her condition is better than a few years ago, and now that her son is promising, Liang Kaiyu must be filial to her.

The radiant Fang Jingshi put on a smile after seeing Ning Yan, "You're coming?"

Ning Yan froze for a moment, then handed her the gift in her hand.

Fang Jingshi took it, and said to Liang Kaiyu: "I haven't seen you for so many years, Xiao Yan has really grown up a lot, if I walk on the street, I will definitely not dare to recognize him."

Ning Yan forced a smile.

At this moment, Liang Kaiyu raised his hand, put it on his shoulder, and said to Fang Jingshi naturally: "Really? I don't think he has changed much."

Ning Yan's heart skipped a beat, but he thought that Liang Kaiyu was just showing intimacy and would put his hand down soon.

Fang Jingshi's expression remained the same, she was still smiling, "There must be some changes, but it's basically the same, as handsome as ever."

The word "handsome" doesn't fit Ning Yan's body.

Because even Ning Shanxing said that the son he gave birth to looked like a little girl, and he felt that he cast the wrong gender.

Before Ning Yan could speak, Fang Jingshi changed the subject again, "Xiao Yan, are you hungry? I made something delicious for you. I remember that you liked the shredded chicken soup I made the most. Come and taste it today, Auntie Has the craftsmanship regressed?"

Ning Yan seemed to have found a space to breathe, and said slowly: "After so many years, Auntie's craftsmanship must have improved, how can you say that it has regressed?"

Fang Jingshi smiled gently, "Really? Your mouth is much sweeter."

They chatted as they walked, and soon arrived at the restaurant of the villa.

During this period, Liang Kaiyu never let go of his hand on Ning Yan.

It wasn't until Fang Jingshi invited them to sit down that Ning Yan avoided Liang Kaiyu's hand, gently tugged him, and warned him not to be too presumptuous.

Liang Kaiyu was noncommittal.

The two of them sat down with Fang Jingshi, and Fang Jingshi said, "This table of dishes is all made by Auntie herself, and there are still a few dishes that are not finished. I didn't expect you to come so early. In this way, Auntie I have to be busy for a while, you two eat first."

Ning Yan hurriedly refused, but in the end she didn't persuade Fang Jingshi, and watched her enter the kitchen.

As soon as she left, Ning Yan said: "You didn't hire a nanny for your mother to take care of such a big house?"

Liang Kaiyu smiled, "Why, do you feel sorry for your future mother-in-law so soon?"

Ning Yan's face changed, and he was a little speechless.

Seeing his face change, the smile on Liang Kaiyu's face also subsided, becoming a little gloomy.

In his eyes, Ning Yan's performance is undoubtedly because he doesn't like him bringing them together.

Liang Kaiyu said in a deep voice: "She didn't like it, she said she was comfortable alone, so I didn't invite her."

Looking at his expression, Ning Yan knew that he had misunderstood.

However, he didn't know what Liang Kaiyu had misunderstood, even if he wanted to save him, he was a bit at a loss.

Fortunately, Fang Jingshi came in soon.

Holding the last two dishes in her hands, she placed them in front of them, sat down with a good temper, and said softly: "It's been a long time since I moved like this, but I'm exhausted, you guys have to show some face, put these All eaten."

Liang Kaiyu has lost his appetite.

After taking two bites, he put down his chopsticks, leaving Ning Yan to take two bites without embarrassment.

Ning Yan doesn't have a big appetite, and after becoming a full-time painter, she's less active, and her appetite is even worse.

Fang Jingshi lived with him, and knew that his appetite was only so small. Seeing that he couldn't eat anymore, she quickly said, "I just want you to save face, not to force you to eat. If you can't eat, let it go."

Ning Yan then put down his chopsticks.

Fang Jingshi found that he was much more silent than before.

She smiled and said: "In the past, Liang Kaiyu was the only boring gourd, but now it's good, it has become two boring gourds."

Ning Yan reluctantly smiled along with her: "Auntie looks much younger."

"Really?" Which woman is not happy to be praised as young, and Fang Jingshi is no exception, "Thank you, Xiaoyan, for giving Auntie face like this."

Liang Kaiyu couldn't sit still.

He took out a cigarette, held it between his slender fingers, stood up and went out without saying a word, Ning Yan was stunned for a moment, and watched him go out together with Fang Jingshi.

Fang Jingshi had a worried look on her face, "Did he drink alcohol last night?"

Ning Yan was startled, "How did Auntie know?"

"Can I still know him?" Fang Jingshi smiled, "After you left, he searched for you like crazy for a year, and after thinking that he might not find you, he drank heavily for half a year. , are not emotionally stable.”

Ning Yan frowned first.

Immediately afterwards, he realized the information revealed in this sentence, and looked at Fang Jingshi in astonishment.

The expression on Fang Jingshi's face was actually very indifferent.

She met Shang Ning Yan's eyes and smiled, "Why, are you surprised?"

Ning Yan opened his mouth, unable to speak.

"Stupid boy," Fang Jingshi shook her head with a smile, "I didn't know it at first, but since you left, Xiao Kai has been acting like crazy. It's hard for me not to know."

Ning Yan's breathing trembled a little, and she lowered her head.

"Auntie actually understood why you left," Fang Jingshi put her hand on the back of his hand, "but Xiao Kai didn't understand. He had a very difficult time during that time. He couldn't sleep every day. There were more than a dozen He is working all hours, drinking at the wine table makes others afraid of him, others think he is for work, do you know what he is for?"

Ning Yan felt that he seemed to have a handful of sand in his throat.

Every time he breathed and swallowed, the hard edges and corners on the sand would cut his throat, making it painful, and all he could taste was the taste of blood.

"Okay, in fact, you're back now, it's meaningless for Auntie to say these things again," Fang Jingshi paused, "Auntie just hopes...he is like this now, don't blame him, even if it's strange, tell him , It's okay to lose your temper, don't just leave without saying a word... okay?"

Her attitude was almost humble.

Before Ning Yan came, he thought of countless reasons for Fang Jingshi to call him over.

Now that he is down and out, their parents are superior. In the past, Fang Jingshi's attitude was definitely not friendly. If Fang Jingshi wanted to take revenge on him, even if he gave him a blow, he would accept it.

But he never expected.

When he left back then, not only did he hurt Liang Kaiyu, but also Fang Jingshi by the way.

So many years later, Liang Kaiyu was already stressed to an incomprehensible level about his leaving.

So much so that Fang Jingshi would be afraid.

Afraid that he would leave again.

Liang Kaiyu's mouth was stiff, and Liang Kaiyu's moodiness was changing. After Liang Kaiyu was drunk, he held his hand tightly and didn't let go.

It was Liang Kaiyu's silent prayer.

Can't leave him anymore.

Can't leave him anymore.
