Ye Lan opened the window and looked at the familiar figure in the distance. His dark blue hair fluttered in the wind, and his side profile was so perfect that it made people gasp in admiration. He had a high nose bridge and a pair of black glasses. His deep eyes were lowered, and his exquisite lips were tightly pursed. His skin looked even fairer under the snow. His beige scarf was a beautiful contrast, and his brown coat couldn't hide his innate temperament. It was actually Ye Mutian!!
Ye Lan looked at him in surprise. He was still sitting quietly in the courtyard reading on such a cold winter day. He was so indifferent as if he was not part of the mortal world, as if nothing in the world had anything to do with him. She always felt that he was isolated from the world. When she thought about his confession in the snow that day, her face couldn't help but turn red. Perhaps Ye Mutian wasn't cold, but he was just suppressing his feelings. He wasn't someone who would easily reveal his feelings, so he chose to immerse himself in books and music. Indeed, among the four so-called princes, Ye Mutian was the one who had the least contact with people. He was always alone in a corner.
She really didn't expect that he would actually like her. If she didn't like Zi Xuanyi, she would have accepted his feelings.
Love was always so hard to fathom.
Even if we can't be lovers, I still want to be your friend and open your heart.
Ye Lan packed her luggage and looked for the food that her neighbors had sent over. There were indeed winter bamboo shoots! Ye Lan picked a few winter bamboo shoots and started cooking in the kitchen. Winter bamboo shoots contained a lot of nutrients, especially wild ones in the village. After she finished cooking, she immediately covered the plate with plastic wrap and put on a coat before walking towards Ye Mutian.
After pressing the doorbell, it was indeed Ye Mutian who opened the door. He looked at Ye Lan in surprise,""Why did you come back here?"
"I wanted to ask you why you built a villa here. Alright, let me in first. It's so cold."”
"Yeah."
Ye Lan entered the house. Sure enough, both the exterior and interior could only be described as luxurious. However, it did not seem extravagant. It had a very classical feel to it."Big Boss Ye, try this first. I made it especially for you.”
Ye Mutian nodded and picked up a piece to taste.""Yes, it's very delicious. Is this a winter bamboo shoot?"
"Yes, yes. This is a rare delicacy. It grows in the village and is completely unpolluted. It's a real natural green plant.”
"Mmm, it's delicious, thank you." Why are you here? Isn't your home in City Z?"
"This is my hometown. Where else can I go? I was wondering who built a villa here, but I didn't expect it to be you, so I came over to greet you. By the way, why didn't you go home during the holiday?”
"No one was home when I got home. My parents went to Canada. I wanted to find a quiet place, so I came here.”
"Don't we have to go and see them?"
"They're all busy with the company's matters, so they might not be able to meet each other.”
"Then there should be some time during the Spring Festival, right?"
"We don't have the habit of celebrating the Spring Festival. They're used to it overseas.”
"Oh, it's okay! Then you can spend the Spring Festival with me this year!!”
Ye Mutian looked at Ye Lan in surprise, but then he lowered his head.""No need."
"Why? Every year during the Spring Festival, I will go to Grandma Hua. It's okay to have you. Grandma Hua will definitely be very happy!”
"Grandma Hua? Is she Qin Yin's grandmother?"
Ye Lan hesitated for a moment. Grandma Hua had told her that she had to keep her identity as the one who raised her. However, Ye Mutian already knew that she was Qin Yin's half-brother at the café, so there should be nothing to hide."Yes, I am."
Ye Mutian looked at Ye Lan thoughtfully.""By the way, I forgot that I said I wanted to help you investigate your mother. I'll start investigating soon.”
Ye Lan smiled and said,"I already said it's okay. I don't really want to know. Oh right!" I saw you reading in the yard from the window just now. It's not easy for you to have a holiday. Let me take you around. There are many interesting places in the countryside! Oh, right, my house is there. I live alone. You can come and find me when you're bored!”Ye Lan pointed at her house.
Ye Mutian nodded.
Then, she fell silent. Ye Lan couldn't help but feel awkward. After all, after the last confession, the two of them couldn't be alone anymore. She could only try her best to find a topic to erase the awkwardness."Oh right, Ye Mutian, do you live alone?”
"No, there's still a butler and a servant, but I've asked them to go back first."
"Oh, uh, right, do you, uh, do you like winter?”Ye Lan regretted her words immediately. What lame words.
Ye Mutian took off his glasses and looked at Ye Lan with deep sorrow in his eyes. Ye Mutian stood up and walked to the piano to sit down. His fingers moved smoothly on the keys and a beautiful tune poured out. Although she didn't know what tune it was, the cheerful tone still made her intoxicated. However, looking at Ye Mutian, Ye Lan could still feel the sorrow in his eyes.
Ye Lan bit her lower lip and lowered her head."I'm sorry. Although we can't be lovers, I still hope that you can be my friend. I hope that I can open your heart. Although I don't have the right to say anything, I really hope that I can see your smile often!”
Ye Mutian looked at Ye Lan and remained silent for a long time.
Open my heart? I hope so.
