Uncle likes you very much too.
Hearing this, the smile on Shi Yunnan’s lips unconsciously froze. He carried Little Goldfish and put him on the desk, then denied the claim, “You are such a mischievous child. How do you know that Luo Lingsheng likes me? “
“He definitely likes you, ah. Little Uncle is so good. Everyone likes you. “
Little Goldfish shook his head in response. He paused and continued to prove the answer he had just given with his own point of view.
“Uncle is very fierce towards everyone else, but he is very kind to you. The first time we met, he told me that you are a family. “
“We’re only kind to people we like, aren’t we?”
“…”
Shi Yunnan stared at Little Goldfish’s clear eyes and was unable to refute it.
Those closely involved can not see the problem as clearly as bystanders.
Sometimes adults are not as perceptive as children, and their most innocent thoughts are often the most accurate.
That’s right.
Luo Lingsheng is a name that onlookers would be scared to hear. A person who was unrelenting toward Xie Keyue and Wen Wanyou. Can this kind person allow him to run wild just because of a contract?
Although Shi Yunnan felt that he himself was good enough, he wouldn’t be so proud to think that he was unmatched under this sky.
Even more so, if Luo Lingsheng wanted to have a contract marriage, there would be many people rushing to sign up, so why did he have to choose someone he had only met once?
“Little Uncle, are you still not happy?”
Seeing that Shi Yunnan stopped talking, Little Goldfish suddenly put his tender little face in front of him and said, “Then you can poke my face. It’s fun. “
Shi Yunnan was amused by Little Goldfish and poked his cheek as he wished.
“Little Uncle, don’t be afraid. If Uncle makes you angry, I will teach him a lesson when I grow up. “
When his uncle was not at home, Little Goldfish did not hesitate to favor Shi Yunnan.
Shi Yunnan pretended to be surprised, “Yo, how dare you teach Luo Lingsheng a lesson?”
Thinking of Luo Lingsheng’s serious face, Little Goldfish instantly wimped out, “…… Shall we work together? Uncle doesn’t dare to be mean to Little Uncle. “
“Who said that? He was mean to me today.”
“Ah? Uncle is bad then. “
The two people, one big and one small, chatted about trivial, random, and even cute kiddish things.
When the clock hit his usual bedtime, Little Goldfish yawned uncontrollably, rubbing his teary eyes,”… Little uncle.”
“You want to go to bed, don’t you? I’ll carry you back to bed. “
“Can I sleep with you, little uncle?” Little Goldfish glanced at the cat pajamas on his body and lowered his head to smell it, “I’ve already washed it, it doesn’t stink.”
Shi Yunnan couldn’t stop laughing and simply carried him to his bed, “Okay, you sleep with me then.”
Shi Yunnan’s inner loneliness was temporarily driven away by this conversation. He stared at Little Goldfish, who was obediently sleeping with his eyes closed on the bed, and suddenly he was not in such a hurry to make a decision.
Even if the relationship between him and Luo Lingsheng could only stay on the contract, it was actually not bad to have a sensible and clingy Little Goldfish to accompany him.
…
Luo Lingsheng went abroad for a comprehensive physical examination this time, but he actually only stayed for less than four days before returning.
When he, Qin Jian, and others returned to Luo’s house, it was not yet nine o’clock in the evening.
Shi Yunnan, who was in the room drawing the design draft, vaguely heard the movement downstairs. He habitually got up and picked up the water glass to go downstairs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he met Luo Lingsheng.
“…”
The two stopped in unison.
This was the first time the two had met since the ‘unhappy breakup’ in the training room that day.
Luo Lingsheng took the initiative to send some WeChat messages in the past few days when he was abroad, but Shi Yunnan treated himself as a blind man, pretending not to see nor reply.
Shi Yunnan thought that Luo Lingsheng was just passing by here to the study room, so he kept silent. But after waiting quietly for three or four seconds, the other party did not intend to move the wheelchair at all.
“Just got back? Not going to the study? “
Shi Yunnan dryly asked him, completely devoid of his usual “making mischief” behaviour.
Luo Lingsheng naturally understood his attitude, and controlled the wheelchair to push forward a little more, “Are you free? I’m here to find you. I want to talk to you about something.”
In less than five days, excluding the long flight time back and forth, Luo Lingsheng had to cooperate with the medical team to carry out rehabilitation training in addition to ordinary examination and treatment, so as to record the statistics of various activities.
Not only that, he had to continue dealing with the company’s affairs even though he was exhausted from the test. It can be said that his spirit was always in a tight state.
Even so, Luo Lingsheng still chose to come to Shi Yunnan when he returned to Luo’s house.
“That day in the training room, it was me who said the wrong thing in the heat of the moment. I just wasn’t used to being ……seen by you when I was in such an embarrassing state. “
Luo Lingsheng tried his best to suppress the exhaustion in his voice and the tension in his heart that no one could detect.
The fact that Shi Yunnan didn’t reply to his WeChat was enough to mess him up.
In fact, after what he said that day, Luo Lingsheng felt a lot of regret, but he really couldn’t find the time to talk about it in person.
“Mr. Luo, you don’t need to apologize to me.”
Shi Yunnan lowered his eyes slightly. He calmly and sensibly replied, “In the training room that day, I broke in without permission. You’re right, I’ve crossed the line. “
“If Mr. Luo hadn’t reminded me, I would have almost forgotten that you and I are only in a ‘contract’ relationship, but it’s not too late to relearn that.”
“From now on, apart from acting in front of outsiders, I will keep a distance from Mr. Luo for the rest of my private time.”
Shi Yunnan quickly finished this paragraph of lies that he had rehearsed countless times, and the palm that was holding the water cup was slightly sweaty.
Even so, he was unwilling to succumb even the slightest bit in front of Luo Lingsheng-
This was the temperament he had cultivated since he was a child. Once he felt a premonition of a ‘threat’, he would put up his self-defense.
In fact, Luo Lingsheng’s two sentences in the training room were of secondary importance.
What made Shi Yunnan pay attention was the fact that the other party would probably reject him forever because of the white moonlight stored in his heart.
In this case, his taking the initiative to walk away was the best protection for himself.
Shi Yunnan resisted the surging emotions and replied, “Mr. Luo, if there is nothing else, please move aside.”
No matter how much mental preparation he had done beforehand, his heartbeat was still out of control in front of Luo Lingsheng.
Luo Lingsheng’s eyes flashed with complexity. The other party’s mouthful of ‘Mr. Luo’ directly returned their relationship to the very beginning.
Just as he was about to say something, a voice sounded nearby, “Little Uncle, I have finished taking a shower.”
Little Goldfish hugged his little blanket and ran towards Shi Yunnan happily. His sight fell on his uncle, and his sprinting pace slowed down. “Uncle, you’re back?”
“Um.”
Luo Lingsheng looked at his little nephew and said, “Jinyu, what are you doing?”
“I came here to sleep with Little Uncle!” Little Goldfish answered proudly.
During the few nights when his uncle was away, he came to sleep with Shi Yunnan every night.
In this way, Little Uncle will not be like the little white rabbit in the story, leaving the family behind and sneaking away at night while they are asleep.
Shi Yunnan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and had to lament how this good baby came at the right time.
He pulled Little Goldfish into the room with one hand and indifferently said to Luo Lingsheng, “We are about to rest. Please excuse us, Mr. Luo. “
Bang
The door was closed without hesitation.
“…”
The words Luo Lingsheng wanted to say were stuck in his throat, unable to speak or swallow, and he gradually felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness.
He stayed silent for a while at the door before whispering ‘good night’ to the people in the room.
…
Shi Yunnan heard the sound of the wheelchair moving away, and the invisible tension that enveloped him finally eased up.
Under his signal, Little Goldfish let go of the hand that was covering his mouth and said in a very deliberate voice, “Little uncle, has uncle left?”
“Yes, let’s go.”
Shi Yunnan no longer wanted to drink water and led Little Goldfish back.
Little Goldfish raised his head and asked him eagerly, “Are you still angry with uncle?”
“I’m not angry.”
Shi Yunnan couldn’t say too much in front of the child, “Go to bed, it’s almost nine o’clock.”
“Oh.”
Little Goldfish obediently climbed into bed with his little blanket and said, “Good night, Little Uncle.”
“Good night.”
Little Goldfish was a child who fell asleep quickly. Shi Yunnan adjusted the brightness of the bedside lamp, and after a while, he saw Little Goldfish sweetly fall into deep sleep.
Shi Yunnan lost the intention to design, so he simply leaned against the bed.
In fact, Luo Lingsheng didn’t even need to take the initiative to apologize. He knew that the phrase ‘crossing the line’ was uttered due to a moment of shame and anxiety. He also understood that the white moonlight could also be a thing in the past that no longer mattered.
Little Goldfish’s childish thoughts made Shi Yunnan realize something.
A person like Luo Lingsheng would not allow anyone to enter his inner world at will.
And perhaps, he was infinitely close to the position in Luo Lingsheng’s heart, but only close, not rooted.
In fact, Shi Yunnan had a hurdle in his heart that could not be overcome. To be more precise-
He was jealous.
He was jealous of Luo Lingsheng’s white moonlight, which he had never met.
Shi Yunnan tried to throw away all his feelings and return to the identity of “contract marriage partner” but it was difficult. There was no way he could do it overnight.
So he just pretended not to care and pretended to be calm, like he did just now.
While he was thinking, his WeChat rang. It was a message from Lu Zhao’an.
-Mr. Shi, are you free tomorrow?
-You said you wanted to visit the Yuan family’s processing plant as well as the raw stone warehouse? I can arrange that for you tomorrow.
Shi Yunnan had this idea.
He agreed to the cooperation request with Lu Zhao’an for a very simple reason: compared to diamond design, jade design was the design direction he really wanted to develop.
Since the Yuan family and Lu Zhao’an offered this olive branch, he was naturally willing to accept it.
In the future, when he develops some contacts in the Chinese industry under his real name “Shi Yunnan,” he can further create his own design studio.
Even though the scene in the dream had undergone earth-shaking changes, in real life, he had to plan a path for himself.
…
The next day.
In order to avoid Luo Lingsheng, Shi Yunnan deliberately hid in his room until almost noon before going downstairs, but unexpectedly, he bumped into Luo Lingsheng’s line of sight again.
“…”
Their eyes met, and Shi Yunnan’s feet paused slightly.
If he sneaked back upstairs at this moment, it would seem too deliberate.
Shi Yunnan simply restrained his emotions and walked down, casually putting down his thin coat and small bag on the chair, “…Why are you not going to the company yet at this time?”
Luo Lingsheng said directly, “Wait for you to come downstairs.”
Shi Yunnan: “…”
Uncle Qin instructed the servant to bring up all the reserved meals, and then silently led the others to retreat, leaving room for the two masters of the family.
Luo Lingsheng took the initiative to express concern, “Don’t eat breakfast and lunch together; skipping breakfast for a long time is bad for your stomach.”
Shi Yunnan scooped up a mouthful of seafood porridge, “Mr. Luo, thank you for your concern, but I’m used to it.”
Luo Lingsheng’s chest was blocked by the phrase ‘Mr. Luo’. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the items that Shi Yunnan had brought down. “Going out this afternoon?”
“Um.”
Shi Yunnan’s answer was very brief. His eyes stayed in the bowl without looking at Luo Lingsheng at all.
He didn’t despise the other party, but he was afraid that once he met Luo Lingsheng’s eyes, some deep-seated emotions would be captured with nowhere to hide.
When Luo Lingsheng saw that Shi Yunnan was becoming more defensive and distanced toward him, his heart seemed to be clenched by invisible hands, and even his breathing sounded a bit tighter.
Luo Lingsheng eventually failed to control his emotions.He maneuvered the wheelchair to shorten the distance between the two and said, “You’re still angry?”
Shi Yunnan’s right hand involuntarily trembled when he heard the apologetic question.
He looked sideways at Luo Lingsheng, whose eyes were focused, and mouthed, “No.”
Luo Lingsheng sensed the sullenness he showed for a moment, and the tuat eyebrows finally eased up into a smile, “Last time in the training room, I was the one who didn’t watch my words. I…”
“I’m full.” Shi Yunan interrupted Luo Lingsheng.
He couldn’t control his fast heartbeat, so he had to retreat slightly to keep his calm, “I have an appointment in the afternoon, and I still have work.”
Luo Lingsheng raised his eyes and looked at Shi Yunnan, who had already gotten up and moved away, and blurted out uneasily, “With whom?”
“Lu Zhao’an.”
The moment he heard the name come out of Shi Yunnan’s mouth, a sour feeling uncontrollably emerged from the bottom of Luo Lingsheng’s heart.
