"Sister-in-law, I'm going to be sad if you say that!" Is that what I am in your heart? " The voice on the other end of the line was suddenly pathetic, and I could see the ghostly expression on the face of the man on the other end.

"Alright, you, why did you suddenly call me?" I smiled and shook my head.

Ming Yu is Lin Mu's only blood relative, and also my little brother in name.

When Lin Mu passed away, Mingyu had only just gone to high school, and he and Lin Mu had no parents to rely on since childhood, so older brother was the only family he had.

Before Lin Mu passed away, I promised him that no matter what, I would bring up his only brother. This is my promise to him, and I have indeed fulfilled it.

Mingyu was also a very up-and-coming child. She had earned a job at Harvard through her own hard work, and she was going to graduate in two years.

To me, Ming Yu was now my only relative.

I will satisfy him with everything he wants, as long as I have it.

"Sister-in-law, I want to come back …"

"Why did you come back? Isn't it good to stay abroad?" A while ago, I heard you had a foreign girl as your girlfriend. When are you going to bring her home? "

"Don't mention it! "I've long since broken up …" Ming Yu said with a helpless tone.

"What is it? Tell sister-in-law. " I am still very concerned about the emotional life of the child.

Lin Mu and I did not have any substantial progress, so it is impossible for us to have children. After Lin Mu passed away, I treated Ming Yu as my own flesh and blood.

Even though I was a silly little girl myself at that time.

"It's all because of you, sister-in-law!" Ming Yu said helplessly.

"Annie looked through my phone a while ago and saw it. I had a photo with you and she kept asking me who you were and suspecting that I was cheating …" After I denied it, she asked me if you were my girlfriend before I went abroad … Women are too troublesome! "

Hearing Mingyu's words, I smiled. "Why don't you explain it to her?"

"Of course I have to explain …" "But no matter what I say, I won't believe it …"

I don't believe Ming Yu's words.

No one knew him better than I did. He was a funny man, and he was always ambiguous and irritating, no matter what he said or did.

If I hadn't been watching him for so long, I don't think I would have been able to bear his strange temperament.

But he was still a child of his own clan. Even if there were many troubles, he would still suffer.

"Then tell me, what did you tell that girl?"

I said you were my big sister and she said I was bullsh * tty and I said you were my mother and she called me a liar and I had no choice but to tell her the truth … She also said that I'm a person who talks in different ways... So I corrected her, "Two sides is a way to describe a person, not a way to describe a person's way of speaking …" She said that I was a bit of a pain in the ass... "Then I broke up with her …

Speaking up to here, this brat even sighed.

"You already have a girlfriend, so just delete the photos with sister-in-law. What's more, I'm not by your side, so you can't explain …"

That's the truest thought in my mind.

Mingyu is no longer a child. She always keeps her picture with me. It doesn't make sense.

Besides, girls these days always have a strong possessive nature. Seeing the photos of other women in her boyfriend's phone would naturally make her feel uncomfortable.

"I don't want it!" I want to use my photo with my sister-in-law as my cellphone wallpaper. That way, I might be able to protect my shoes from rotten peach blossoms … If any other girl comes looking for me, I'll take the wallpaper and say, "This is my girlfriend, you're not as pretty as her!"

Hearing Mingyu's joking tone, I felt quite upset.

Before he went to college, he seriously told me that when he grew up, he would marry me, become my wife, and protect me forever … I knew then that he was a child, that he knew nothing.

But now it was different. He had gradually entered the age of adults.

As his only family, I had to guide him properly at this time. Furthermore, keeping a safe distance from him allowed him to have a normal level of heterosexual communication.

However, even though that was my intention, it was extremely difficult for me to accomplish it.

Because this child was almost exactly like the Lin Mu of his youth.

I think I have to admit that it's precisely because of this that I'm willing to devote all my attention to him. It's because every time I see him, I feel that this is a continuation of Lin Mu's life.

"Sister-in-law, let's start the video!" I haven't seen you in a long time! " Seeing that I didn't say anything, Ming Yu took the initiative to ask.

I didn't think too much and clicked on the video call.

I walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down. At that moment, Mingyu suddenly opened her mouth and asked, "Sister-in-law, when did you start smoking?"

My heart tightened. "Why do you say that?"

"I just saw an ashtray on the coffee table beside the sofa …" I remember you didn't have a habit of smoking... Could it be that you've gotten yourself a boyfriend? "

Ming Yu's voice sounded somewhat unhappy.

"Sister-in-law, you promised me that you would tell me as soon as you have a boyfriend. It's like I have a girlfriend, and I'll call you as soon as I can …"

When I heard Mingyu's words, I couldn't help but think of that scene, but very quickly, I shook my head and dispelled the thought.

"Nothing. "This should be left behind by the partners who came to our house to discuss cooperation projects two days ago …"

I said, not wanting Mingyu to misunderstand that I had a boyfriend.

It was a simple thing, and I didn't want it to get complicated all of a sudden.

"Sister-in-law, even if you have a boyfriend, it doesn't matter. But you must remember to bring me to see …" That way I can relax... "Of course, if that man is Brother Zi Jin, then I have no objections at all!"

"Alright, alright, stop messing around. Your sister-in-law is busy with work all day, how can she have the time to get to know a boyfriend? "Alright, look at the time. It's almost midnight on your side. I won't tell you anymore. You should get some rest. I'll call you next time!"

I hung up.

After talking to Ming Yu about the heavens, his heart felt as if it had been illuminated by a small sun. Suddenly, all of the haze around them vanished.

All the questions that had been bothering me seemed to vanish in an instant.

I also felt a little tired, took a bath and went to bed.

The next day, the cell phone rang, I woke up in my sleep, I didn't look at the caller ID, I just used perseverance to pick up the phone.

"Hey, Xiao Ye, I'm back."
