Looking at the bright moon

At the beginning of May, Long Garden had another old customer.Fifth Miss Wen Peiling rushed back from Yungang suddenly. This time she returned home, but the battle was not as big as last time. She only brought a girl and dragged a suitcase into the gate.It was just past ten o'clock in the morning, and the sunlight sifted down from the dense canopy of trees, sporadically sprinkled on the path paved with coal dust, and the courtyards of Longyuan were all hidden under the shade of trees, so quiet that only the humming could be heard. birdsong.

Wen Peiling said: "Third brother is a young person, but he is less lively than his father. He stays in a deserted home all day long. If it were me, I would not be able to bear the loneliness."

Her words took advantage of the listener's thoughts, the housekeeper heard the words, and immediately said: "Who says it's not, but the young master's private affairs, it's our turn to worry about the servants, only Miss Lao Wu will take the trouble to persuade the young master some."

Wen Peiling didn't answer, but she thought in her heart: Her words might not carry much weight in front of her elder brother.Earlier, among her female classmates, many of them had taken a fancy to her third elder brother who was in the wind, and many of them were bold enough to ask her to create a chance to meet, hoping to make friends with Wen Mingyu.Even though we are no longer in the old era and both men and women advocate equality, it is extremely rare for a young lady to put down her figure and pursue the man she likes.Unexpectedly, after the two parties met, Wen Mingyu received the young lady in a gentle and courteous manner. As soon as she left, she immediately put up her elder brother's airs and taught Peiling a lesson, telling her not to bring idlers home again.

Since then, Wen Peiling has stopped doing such thankless things.In her opinion, this elder brother has no interest in love between men and women. Instead of letting him accompany a woman to the park or watch a movie, it would be more comfortable to discuss business at work.If one day, Wen Mingyu steps into the palace of marriage, it must be because of his career that he has cultivated a human form to repay his sincerity.

Wen Mingyu happened to be not at home that day, and Wen Peiling went to sleep because she was used to a life of upside-down day and night in Yungang.When she got up, she called a servant to inquire, and found that Wen Mingyu still hadn't come back.However, he called the butler and personally told Wen Peiling to have dinner at Longyuan.

But she got up a bit late, Wen Peiling went to the dining room immediately after washing up.There was a light on there, which surprised Pei Ling, thinking that her brother had returned early.But this is a bit strange, she had already told her servants that if the third brother came home, he would come to wake her up, they would never have the guts to perfuse themselves in such a matter, then the people in the dining room would be who?

Pei Ling hesitated to step in the door, there were only a few servants guarding the dining room.After seeing her, the servants hurriedly greeted her, and one of them was older, rubbing his hands and laughing: "Miss Fifth, you are finally awake. The young master has been waiting for you for a long time, I will ask him to come out right now." .”

Wen Peiling was startled when she heard that, she thought the young master was referring to Yongtang.However, when the servants surrounded a young man and walked out of the guest room, the person who came out was far beyond her expectation.The boy was tall and thin, wearing a white shirt, leaning on a cane, and his hands were covered with bandages.As soon as their eyes met, the young man sized Peiling up for a moment with those black and clear eyes, and then nodded slightly to her, as if he was not surprised by her arrival.

Wen Peiling was very clear about Sheng Huan's departure from Longyuan back then.But when the other party moved back, she didn't know anything about it, and he was still hurt like this. There must be a long story in it.Pei Ling came back to her senses, she quickly smiled at Sheng Huan, and said, "Have you been waiting for a long time? Let's meet again, but I, the Master, have been rude in front of you, please sit down."

Sheng Huan said: "Mr. Wen said that he will come back very late today, and let me treat you to dinner."

Even though he spoke like this, his tone didn't have the slightest hint of hospitality, it sounded like he was chasing away guests.However, the word "entertainment" is very sophisticated, it is clearly something that only the master can say.Wen Peiling really became suspicious this time, and covered her mouth and asked, "Is this what the third brother said?"

Sheng Huan just hummed, and then fell silent again.In fact, he also had doubts, he and Wen Peiling hadn't spoken a few words, why did Wen Mingyu appoint himself to entertain?As soon as he sat down, the servant immediately brought the dishes to the table, including a dish of tofu and shrimp, and a dish of stewed beef with tomato, both of which Sheng Huan liked.Wen Peiling scooped up a spoonful of abalone soup, drank it slowly, and said, "Since you are back, why do you still call him 'Mr.'? Are you still planning to call me Fifth Miss?"

The boy sitting opposite her nodded twice again, admitting it was a matter of course.It is also very rare for Wen Peiling to meet such a sincere child, and she couldn't help saying angrily: "Your father has acquiesced to be the second master in your writer. If you still treat him like this, aren't you afraid that he will be sad?"

Sheng Huan didn't know when he became the second owner of Long Garden, nor did he feel that he and Wen Mingyu were out of touch.However, the name he called that person was a secret that existed between the two of them alone, and it could not be announced to anyone, so there was no excuse.

The meal was finally finished without incident, and when they parted from Wen Peiling, Sheng Huan made a self-examination, and felt that as an entertainer, he was very negligent of his duty.Fortunately, Wen Peiling didn't look unhappy. She forcibly sent Sheng Huan to Dongyuan. When she learned that he was living with Wen Mingyu, she was a little surprised. She supported his shoulder and sighed: "I finally understand." , In the past, the third brother celebrated his birthday, and I didn’t see him paying attention to it, so why did he specially call me here this time. It turns out that his real purpose is here.”

Upon hearing her words, Sheng Huan paid attention to another direction, and asked for the first time: "His birthday? When is it?"

Wen Peiling said: "Don't worry, there is still more than a month, enough for you to prepare."

The preparation she mentioned was referring to the psychological construction that Sheng Huan had to do as the next young master of the Wen family.Unexpectedly, Sheng Huan fully understood that it was a gift for Wen Mingyu. Since he was a child, he has never celebrated his own birthday, let alone celebrated it for others.Besides, what can he come up with, what Wen Mingyu needs?

The more Sheng Huan thought about it, the more frustrated he felt, until he went to bed, he was still thinking about this matter in his mind.A week has passed since the night Wen Mingyu got drunk, and the number of times he saw each other during this time has obviously decreased compared to the past.Sheng Huan didn't know if the other party was avoiding him on purpose, and he was always worried for the first few days, thinking that the other party had discovered his thoughts and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.But in the subsequent getting along, Wen Mingyu still had that conniving and gentle attitude, and she didn't seem to want to have no contact with him, which was really elusive.

While thinking about his thoughts, he fell asleep at some point.I don't know how long it has passed, but when he was half asleep and half awake, he suddenly felt that the blanket was pulled up, covering half of his exposed shoulders.

After the man had done this, he was about to turn around and leave.Sheng Huan didn't know why he reacted so quickly, and grabbed the opponent's wrist as soon as he reached out.Most of the gauze on his hand had been removed, and the ten fingers finally regained their freedom. When they touched the other's warm skin, it was like being absorbed by a magnet, and they were firmly stuck to it, refusing to let go.

The person caught by him stood by the bed for a while, then slowly sat down by the bed, and asked softly, "Did I wake you up?"

Sheng Huan opened his sore eyelids a little, saw that Wen Mingyu had changed into pajamas, and looked down at him.The other party was half covered in moonlight, his eyes were covered in shadows, and he could only see calm, soft eyes.Sheng Huan liked being watched by Wen Mingyu like this, so he squeezed over, leaned against him, and refused to speak wearily.

"You are so spoiled by me." Wen Mingyu raised his other hand to stroke his hair, and then shook the hand that was held: "If you still want to grab me, don't let me go back sleeping?"

Sheng Huan put her face against the side of the opponent's leg, and it took a long time before she muffled out a sentence: "You don't mean what you say."

Wen Mingyu still asked in that soft tone that seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind: "Where did you start?"

Seduced by the sound, Sheng Huan couldn't tell whether he was awake or dreaming.Before he was fully awake, he became more courageous than usual, and complained dissatisfiedly: "You said you would spend a few nights with me, but you only fulfilled it for one night."

The other party laughed, as if amused by his words, and said, "But you won't have nightmares the next day."

This is also the truth, Sheng Huan lost his reason to argue, so he raised his head and stared straight at Wen Mingyu.Wen Mingyu just smiled, with a very calm demeanor, and said: "You have grown up, and you let your father sleep with you, so you are not afraid of being laughed at by others."

At this time, Sheng Huan was extremely sensitive to the word father, and as soon as he heard about it, he quickly sat up, faced Wen Mingyu and said, "I don't want you to be my father."

When he spoke, his tone was a little anxious, and it sounded a bit fierce.Wen Mingyu finally broke away from his hand, and sat opposite Sheng Huan, and now he was very much like the cold and taciturn Wen Mingyu from before.The longer he was silent, the more uneasy Sheng Huan felt. He only thought that he forgot his sense of proportion for a while, which made Wen Mingyu impatient.

After a long while, Wen Mingyu finally said: "Our relationship is predestined since you were born, even if you don't admit it, it won't change in any way."

These words hit Sheng Huan's heart like a heavy hammer.Sheng Huan's face was scorching hot, but cold sweat broke out on his back. His body felt hot and cold for a while, and he didn't care whether he was uncomfortable or not. He grabbed Wen Mingyu's skirt with both hands and said loudly: "I said, I owe you my life, and I have already paid you back!"

His hands were too hard, the wound burst open, and the white gauze was instantly stained with blood red traces.After Wen Mingyu found out, he immediately took Sheng Huan's hand, forcibly separated his fingers, and said in a low voice, "Do you think you've recovered too quickly?"

After finishing speaking, Wen Mingyu looked at Sheng Huan, and saw that he was still staring at her, with his lips pursed tightly.In just a short moment, there was sweat rolling down his face, and under the corners of his eyes, it looked like tears.Wen Mingyu held that hand and didn't let go for a long time. In the end, Sheng Huan turned his head away first, refusing to look at him again.

Sheng Huan was still willing to make a fuss, which made Wen Mingyu heave a sigh of relief.He knew that he was a little anxious tonight, and what he said was too obvious, Sheng Huan couldn't accept it.This child has an extremely strong temperament, and an overly decisive attitude will easily lead to backlash.He sighed, found medicine and gauze from the room, and asked, "Still angry with me?"

He took Sheng Huan's bloody hand, and saw that the fingers were white and red, so he couldn't help but squeeze them lightly.Only now did Sheng Huan turn around to look at him, still with that stubborn look on his face, and repeated again: "Mr. Wen, what I owe has already been paid back to you."

Wen Mingyu lowered his eyes and focused on changing his medicine.He didn't know how to serve people, but he did this kind of thing very neatly. After the wound was bandaged, he raised his head, glanced at Sheng Huan, and said with a smile: "If it's really that simple, then it would be great."

His tone seemed to contain a little bit of regret, which made Sheng Huan almost suspect that he hadn't heard clearly, but Wen Mingyu would not say it a second time.Sheng Huan was pushed down by the other party, Wen Mingyu sat on the edge of the bed, patted him like a child, and said, "Go to sleep, I will stay here with you."

Sheng Huan still wanted to continue the topic, but he was afraid that if he made his words too clear, he would lose room for change.After thinking about it, he finally gave in, and only asked, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Wen Mingyu smiled softly again, the voice was as soft as a feather in the night, and it rolled down leisurely.After a while, Sheng Huan heard his answer: "I'm not sleepy yet."
