[Lou Li the Pretender] Orphan Note

Rainy day is the day of reading.

The Ming mansion is still silent at this moment, the small living room is flickering with candlelight, and the wind and rain outside the window are even more gloomy.

Ah Xiang had just brought in a few pots of delicate magnolias from outside, when she suddenly saw someone standing motionless under an umbrella. missing.

Ah Xiang couldn't help opening the window again, and shouted at the figure through the rain and fog: "Master!"

No echo.

After thinking about it, she also opened an umbrella and went out, only to see that he was guarding a wild tulip on the porch.

Wild flowers are not easy to transplant, and if they are exposed to the rain, it is a kind of flower feeling, and there are two places to worry about.

Minglou is always sympathetic and cherishing jade.

Although there are grape vines on the promenade, the luxuriant branches and leaves of the grapes do not keep out the rain, and water droplets still fall from time to time, hitting the black umbrella supported by Minglou, "Puff——"

"Young master, this flower cannot be drenched here, so go in quickly."

Minglou pursed his lips and looked at the flowers quietly. The water droplets kept flowing down from the flowers, and then merged into the soil at the roots.

"Where's Mingtai?"

"The young master went out early in the morning, saying he was going shopping."

Minglou nodded.

Oh, I went shopping in the French Concession, and even went to my own home.

Minglou went to visit Wang Manchun early in the morning, and it was already afternoon when he returned to the mansion, so he couldn't wait until now to come to Mingtai.

Do you really take it as your own?Is it possible to wait for the night?

Ah Cheng also came over with an umbrella.

"Brother, sister is looking for you."

Minglou sighed, "Miss Cheng and Mingtai are not here, so she thinks of me."

Ah Xiang narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Where does Eldest Young Master usually have time?"

Ah Cheng coughed, "Ah Xiang, have you checked the windows? Have you turned off the kitchen gas? Be careful of the water."

Ah Xiang immediately went to check the gas.

"Brother, is Wang Manchun alright?"

Ming Lou shook his head, then looked at him again, "What's going on? She dropped the glass as soon as you went out?"

Ah Cheng nodded.

Minglou turned his face away, wondering what he was thinking.

Ah Cheng was puzzled, "Brother, do you think Nantian has assigned Wang Manchun some new tasks, and she will suffer so much?"

A glint of prey flashed in Minglou's eyes.

He squatted down slowly, stroking the white flowers that were drenched in the rain. The rain was cold and fell on the hot blood vessels, and the blood would also be frozen.

"I didn't ask, but Nantian doubted me. You don't need to think about it."

Minglou said lightly.

Ah Cheng frowned, "...isn't Yu Manli enough to win Yu Nantian's trust?"

Ming Lou shook his head, "Half-believing and half-doubting."

Ah Cheng was worried, "What should I do then?"

Ming Lou rearranged the crooked flowers that had been blown, stood up, and knocked off the raindrops outside the long windbreaker, "Drive to the French Concession."

Ah Cheng nodded, then was taken aback for another moment, "Then the eldest sister is looking for you..."

Ming Lou shook his head, "Since I know what she's going to say, it's better not to go now."

French Concession.

There was a faint sound of thunder, and the rain fell into a waterfall in an instant.

Yu Manli opened the window, looked up and saw dark clouds billowing in, she turned her head and said, "You should go back."

Mingtai sat drinking coffee, a few mouthfuls of French biscuits were placed on the white porcelain plate.

He was helpless, "How can you drive people out when it rains?"

Yu Manli snorted, "Who told you to stay so long?"

Mingtai shook his head, "Just wait, brother will be back soon, he will keep me."

Yu Manli smiled, "Do you think he will keep you? Why do I think he will beat you?"

Mingtai pretended to sigh, and casually picked up a hardcover book at hand, the red silk bronzing hardcover, which turned out to be "A Brief Introduction to the Destruction of West India".

He froze for a moment, looked at Yu Manli, and suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.

"A Brief Introduction to the Destruction of the West" was the book he read on the plane where he first met Wang Tianfeng.He never thought that she would remember so well that he would confide bitterness to Yu Manli once in a while.

Yu Manli's expression softened for a moment, but she regained her composure in an instant.

She sat down and said peacefully, "What's the matter? It's just a book, don't think too much about it."

Mingtai laughed, "I haven't said anything yet."

At the same time, downstairs in the apartment building, a black Ford car parked quietly under the big willow tree.

There were two people in the car.

The man in black in the back seat of the car closed his eyes, as if he was listening to the harmony of rain beating spring willows.

Ah Cheng in the front seat glanced at the rearview mirror, "Brother, why don't you go up?"

Minglou tapped his hands on his knees, repeatedly, "Wait a minute."

Ah Cheng turned his face to look at him, only to see that his face was calm, and the old god was there.

"Brother—if you don't go up again, that boy Mingtai will turn against Yu Manli."

Minglou opened his eyes, and said sharply, "What instigation? They are all my subordinates, what would they dare to do behind my back?"

Seeing that the agitation had played a role, Ah Cheng couldn't help but chuckled. He supported the back of the co-pilot's seat with one hand and the steering wheel with the other, and continued, "I was afraid that Mingtai would be unruly before marriage, so I told the truth about my old relationship. In order to prove her Innocent, have you said everything?"

Minglou snorted, "Innocent? She even stole my innocence, can she explain it clearly?"

Sure enough, about 10 minutes later, Mingtai came downstairs.

He saw the eldest brother's car at a glance, approached with a smile, knocked on the front window, and the window lowered, revealing Ah Cheng's handsome face.

Mingtai flattered him, "Brother Ah Cheng, are you here to pick me up?"

Minglou was in the back seat, and at a glance, he saw Mingtai holding an umbrella—a red oil-paper umbrella. It was a handicraft that Yu Manli accidentally took a fancy to during a meeting in Hunan. The buyer saw a pair of buyers wearing gold and silver. The dress was gorgeous, so the lion opened his mouth, and the asking price was outrageous. Yu Manli wanted to leave, but Minglou paid.

Before Mingtai could react, he was suddenly pulled by a strong force, and saw his eldest brother standing behind him with a gloomy face, holding an open black umbrella.

"Big brother..."

Before Mingtai could speak, Minglou stuffed the handle of his umbrella into Mingtai's hand, and slipped his other hand over his red paper umbrella.

"Let's talk nonsense—get in the car and go home."

He turned away.

Mingtai looked aggrieved, and looked at Ah Cheng again, "How old is he, and he still grabs things from me!"

Ah Cheng smiled and said, "My little master, why are you here today? Are you blind like a big brother?"

The implication is that robbing things is a minor matter, but robbing people is a major matter. This is Minglou's anger.

Yu Manli kept watching Mingtai leave, but was blocked by the willow tree, so she didn't see the interaction under the tree.

Just as he was clearing up the leftovers of coffee and biscuits, he saw Minglou entering the door carrying a red oil-paper umbrella, which happened to be the one she had given to Mingtai.

In fact, it wasn't that she gave it to Mingtai on purpose, but that Mingtai had sharp eyes and picked out rare things. She insisted on that paper umbrella inlaid with flowers, and she didn't plan to disobey him.

At this moment, she was a little dazed, but she didn't know which show Minglou was performing.

Minglou took off his coat and leather gloves, and when he looked up, he saw her holding a hot towel, "Shall we go take a shower?"

Minglou was startled, then suddenly smiled, "...I'm afraid there are people in the bathroom."

Yu Manli was stunned.

Minglou passed her and walked to the table. When he saw the "A Brief Introduction to the West India" spread out, his face darkened. Yu Manli really knew how to act - if she wanted to play a layman who was greedy for wealth, in front of Mingtai, It is also inconvenient to completely break his previous image, so he half-truths and half-false, pushes the boat along the way, showing the appearance of unrequited love for him.

In this way, facing someone, he will act out the Yu Manli in that person's heart, such as subtly imitating and adapting to the situation, so as to confuse the audience and make the fake one false.

She understands men's psychology too well, so she just faces him, just doing business.

Ming Lou moved his gaze to the window sill, the window was still closed, the rainwater drifted in obliquely and wet the window lattice.Yu Manli had already put down the towel, and she came over, "How is Wang Manchun's injury?"

"It's okay." He turned his back to her and closed the window.

Minglou didn't turn around for a long time.

Yu Manli was a little puzzled, was he watching the rain?

She walked around in front of him, "Minglou?"

He looked down at her.

Captured by the deep meaning in his eyes, she gasped.

She coughed and lowered her head, "Mr. Ming, Mingtai has already left. There is no one in the bathroom. You go..."

In the next second, he had already lifted her chin and hooked her waist with one hand.

The breath of Minglou surrounded Yu Manli, and the thunder outside the window was even louder. His body was half wet, the smell of tobacco was wet, and the hard edges of the long windbreaker made Yu Manli feel uncomfortable, helpless, and unable to push it away.

He has great strength.

Yu Manli raised her eyes slowly, "Mr. Ming, why are Director Wang injured? Are you not going to tell me?"

Minglou twitched the corner of his mouth, "Is this important?"

Yu Manli was surprised, "Isn't this important?"

Minglou looked at her, "I'm still here, and I'm still hugging you, which means there's nothing wrong."

She knows, but she can "not know".

Yu Manli wanted to withdraw from his embrace, she rolled her eyes, "Then... what will Mingtai say when he comes, let me tell you?"

It's never going to be important.

Minglou didn't speak, just looked at Yu Manli.

There is always a different kind of fear in the silence.Especially for a person like Minglou, when he speaks, he is sure, yet confusing. When he is not speaking, he is still like a sword in its sheath, his sharpness is not exposed, and his aura is especially present.

"Do you want to chat so much?" Ming Lou asked suddenly.

Yu Manli hesitated and nodded.

Minglou smiled, very good.

He hooked her chin and leaned closer, "Then let's talk about something interesting, such as... last night."

Alarm bells were ringing in her heart.

No way.

In fact, nothing happened between them, but now Minglou obviously believed her plot, but didn't intend to let go as she planned.

She clearly figured out his character!

Minglou hates being schemed by others the most, if he is tricked, he will never be interested in him again.

But...he?

How could he suddenly kiss her!

Yu Manli was very clear-headed, but her hands and feet panicked while she was sober, her limbs became numb, and the numbness went all the way to the tip of her tongue.

Minglou was gently probing her mouth, exploring the softness of the corners little by little, sucking the sweet juice.

Yu Manli's mind was spinning—is Minglou punishing herself?Should she admit her mistake? After all, she just wanted to draw a line with him, but never wanted to offend him.

She can't afford to offend her boss either.

She was vague, and interrupted when he left her for a while: "...I showed Mingtai that screen."

Minglou kept moving, and kissed again, but this time it was more intense than the last time. His hand casually explored the buttons on her waist, and slowly slipped into the thin shirt——

Yu Manli was startled and shuddered all over - "Minglou, what are you...what are you doing?!"

His whisper fell in her ear, "Don't move, be good."

This sentence is a code word.

Someone is watching them.

Yu Manli's heart tightened, and she still maintained her refusal posture, but most of her strength was exhausted.

She leaned softly in his arms, as if letting him handle her, "What should I do, you want to eat me?"

Minglou smiled, "Is that okay?"

Yu Manli's heart sank, if Minglou dared to come to the truth, she would not let him go.

Minglou glanced out of the window calmly.

His hand started to unbutton Yu Manli, his speed...much faster than Yu Manli's last night.

Yu Manli suddenly grabbed his hand, and he looked at her.

Tears were almost seeping from the corners of Yu Manli's eyes, but she just let go of her hand slowly, "Be gentle."

He nodded.

After a pause, she kissed her forehead, "Don't worry."
