When he returned to the manor, it was already late in the night. The butler opened the door and said softly, "Master has already rested."
Lin Nuofan nodded and quietly went upstairs with Mu Zixi to Mu Zixi's room. Mu Zixi turned around and said, "Thank you, Big Brother Lin. I'm very happy today."
Lin Naofan thought for a moment before stepping forward and lightly kissed Mu Zixi on the forehead. "Good night."
Mu Zixi's thoughts were immediately overturned.
Such a kiss seemed to be sealed deep within his mind. When was it ever going to happen? Who was it? It was as if he had also given her a kiss like before, on her long hair and forehead …
Mu Zixi was a little flustered, turned around and ran into the room before closing the door.
Throwing himself onto the bed, Mu Zixi felt some hatred for herself for thinking so randomly. Why would she think of someone else? He didn't hate that person so much. Why did such a kiss bring him back to that memory?
Ridiculous, sad, and confused.
Mu Zixi simply went to the bathroom and turned on the shower, allowing himself to stand in the water. That night, the person who had suddenly entered his mind had been washed away with a single kiss!
Mu Zixi wanted him to remember clearly how a child disappeared, how his father failed to see the last time, and how that person hurt him.
However, that charming smile seemed to burn the bottom of his heart. No matter how it washed over him, it couldn't wash away his smile.
Mu Zixi was squatting in the water when he suddenly began to cry.
Why, why did this person barge in just like that when he and big brother Lin wanted to be happy? How long would it take him to forget this man?
Lin Naofan did not mind his birth, did not mind the fact that he had once been Cheng Haotian's mistress, and did not mind anything. Such a man who was ten thousand times warmer than Cheng Haotian should be his final choice!
Mu Zixi suddenly wanted to fiercely shout, and ruthlessly throw this man who was branded in his heart out of his heart!
Closing the shower, Mu Zixi looked into the mirror and saw his face gradually becoming round, telling himself, "Mu Zixi, remember, that man, you must ruthlessly forget him, you must fiercely hate him, don't ever think about it again, I don't want to see you crying like this ever again. You must be responsible for Big Brother Lin, for a man who can do anything for you, and not for a man who can carry another man!"
These words were like a genuine curse that sealed her heart. After saying those words, Mu Zixi turned around and left the bathroom, as if she really couldn't recall a person from her memories.
After drying her hair, it was already late at night. However, Mu Zixi didn't feel sleepy at all. She sat on the balcony and looked at the lighthouse in the distance.
"Zi Xi, how come you haven't slept for such a long time?" Lin Naoi's voice came from the balcony next door.
Mu Zixi turned around to see Lin Naofan standing on the balcony, smoking a cigarette.
He was smoking again. It seemed that the happiness he had during the day was not real.
This was because she understood Lin Naoi. He was someone who only smoked when faced with a big problem.
"Brother Lin, why are you still smoking?" Mu Zixi reprimanded him as he walked to the edge of the balcony.
Lin Naoi put out her cigarette and flipped over from the balcony. Her clothes were still the same as before.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? "Eh, why does it look like I've been crying, and my eyes are red and swollen?" Lin Naofan looked at Mu Zixi's face in the dim yellow light from the balcony. However, he discovered that Mu Zixi's eyes were slightly red and swollen.
"Of course not, Big Brother Lin. You're too worried. I didn't cry, so why would I cry? I was having fun today. I was probably too happy, so I'm not able to fall asleep right now." Mu Zixi turned his head and looked at the lighthouse in the distance.
"You've been looking at the lighthouse, haven't you? Lin Naoi held onto the railing of the balcony as she looked at the lighthouse floating on the shore.
"Yes!" Mu Zixi nodded.
"Me too, I've been looking at that beacon up and down. "I've always thought, 'Our lives are just like this lighthouse floating on the surface of the sea.'"
"Only in the dark night will it light up and show the fishing boat the way home. Even if you can't see your five fingers in the dark night, you still have to stay floating there. If you meet a storm, you can only stay put." Mu Zixi followed Lin Naofan's words and said.
Mu Zixi turned his head and looked at Lin Naofan with eyes that shined, causing Lin Naofan's heart to be in a mess. He gently grabbed onto Mu Zixi's hand, turning her face towards him as he stared into Mu Zixi's eyes.
"Brother Lin …" "What's wrong?" Mu Zixi asked softly.
At this moment, Lin Naofan suddenly had the urge to kiss Mu Zixi. Looking at her red lips, he wondered if it would be very fragrant.
There was a voice in Lin Naoi's mind telling her to go ahead and give her a kiss. But another voice said, "No, you can't even make friends with this kiss, you absolutely can't!"
Lin Nuofan's Adam's apple moved and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great effort. He let go of Mu Zixi's hand, turned around, and climbed over the balcony as he said, "Good night, Zixi. See you tomorrow! "
Mu Zixi was a little curious about Lin Naofan's behavior, but still said good night and returned to the room.
However, he was still unable to calm down.
Closing the balcony door, she lay back on the bed.
Force yourself to close your eyes...
She was already happy. [Isn't it? Why is my heart still so uneasy?]
She, as long as she could sleep peacefully, Lin Naofan, would definitely take care of this matter …
As he thought about it, Mu Zixi finally calmed down and slowly fell asleep ….
The sunlight, scattered in the gorgeous room, was especially warm, shining on the face of the petite woman on the bed.
Make the woman's long, slender eyelashes move. Mu Zixi opened his eyes again and found that the sky was already bright.
This time, he got up too late …
Had she been lazy recently?
Mu Zixi felt very embarrassed as he was being questioned in his heart. After all, there was an old man living downstairs, but he had already woken up two days late.
After changing his clothes, Mu Zixi quickly went downstairs. Unexpectedly, Lin Naoi wasn't there. Only Lin Tianxiong was drinking tea by the swimming pool.
Mu Zixi hurried over to Lin Tianxiong's side and said in embarrassment, "Uncle Lin, I'm sorry. I was late getting up again."
Lin Tianxiong continued to wave his hands while smiling, "Not too late, not too late. Young people are different from us. When we get older, we will have less drowsiness." "Oh right, let the butler bring you your breakfast. Would you mind sharing your breakfast with me in this garden?"
Mu Zixi shook his head and sat by the beach. The butler brought him breakfast and milk.
Lin Tianxiong looked at Mu Zixi as he ate his breakfast, and said, "This child, Little Fan, has a very high sense of self-esteem. He has always been determined to be an outstanding doctor, and if it wasn't for me, he would still be a doctor now. However, I never thought that he would be so swift and decisive in his actions. It's just that this time, our opponents are different.
Mu Zixi was eating breakfast as he listened to Lin Tianxiong continue to speak.
"The Lin Clan's market has shrunk tenfold, but Xiaofan is trying his best to hold on. My body, as you can see, is getting worse every day. Sometimes I sleep. Zi Xi, I have something that I want to beg of you. "
Mu Zixi stopped the knife and fork in his hand and hastily said, "Uncle, don't say anything about begging. As long as you say it, I will definitely do what I can."
"I want to see your wedding with Lin Naoi …"
"Dad, what are you talking about?" At that moment, Lin Naoi tidied up her t-shirt and walked out of the living room with a look of embarrassment on her face.
"Dad, how can you casually say this?" Lin Naofan was afraid that his father's request would embarrass Mu Zixi.
"Xiaofan, you know my body, right now I'm only at the end of my tether. Being able to see you get married and have a child is my wish!" Lin Tianxiong's voice had a hint of vicissitudes.
When he was thirty years old, he met Lin Naoi's mother and fell in love with her. However, at that time, the Lin Clan had already found a wife for him to marry into. It was only when he asked for a divorce due to infertility that he officially sent someone to look for Lin Naoi and her son. He didn't expect that after he found out that her mother had died, Lin Tianxiong would only find her only son.
All these years, he hadn't had a son by his side. He had toiled his way through his career until today, and his body was getting worse and worse every day. Currently, the Lin Family Enterprise was also facing a crisis. His only wish was to watch his only son get married as soon as possible.
Of course, Lin Naoi knew that Lin Tianxiong was serious.
However, even though he always had this thought in his head, Mu Zixi never formally accepted him.
He knew that Mu Zixi felt that she wasn't worthy of him.
But God knows how much he wanted to marry her. However … But he didn't dare to have the slightest bit of extravagant hope.
He felt that as long as he could wait for her by her side, he would be satisfied.
Therefore, he had never intended to force her hand.
While Lin Naofan was lost in his thoughts, Mu Zixi suddenly stood up and walked to Lin Naofan's side. He looked at Lin Xiaofan, who was taller and stronger than him, with a warm smile on his face. No matter what, he was willing to stand behind him to protect him from wind and rain …
She had seen all his kindness towards her during this period of time.
What qualifications did she have to push such a good man away?
She had originally thought that even if Lin Xiaofan were to accept a woman like her, his clan would not be willing to accept her. However, right now, Lin Tianxiong was looking forward to Lin Naofan's wedding.
She had always been, was being cared for by Lin Naoi, she had nothing, she had never been able to repay anything …
Perhaps that was all she could do … She wanted to repay Lin Naoi's kindness to her, no matter what the method was …
"Uncle, I'm willing to marry big brother Lin!" Mu Zixi said forcefully.
Her eyes were blazing with blazing flames, incomparably bright. It was as if he were telling Lin Naoi of her determination, and in the depths of her heart, it was more like she was convincing herself …
Why did she agree to Lin Naoi's request … But there wasn't much joy... Was it because he truly wasn't worthy?
Lin Tianxiong and Lin Xiaofan's bodies trembled as they simultaneously asked, "Are you speaking the truth?"
At this moment, Lin Xiaofan's eyes were glowing with an inconceivable light.
Lin Nuofan nodded and quietly went upstairs with Mu Zixi to Mu Zixi's room. Mu Zixi turned around and said, "Thank you, Big Brother Lin. I'm very happy today."
Lin Naofan thought for a moment before stepping forward and lightly kissed Mu Zixi on the forehead. "Good night."
