    Chapter 19

    This is the first time Liang Fangyuan has heard his brother say that he has no plans. After all, he has not refused to introduce him to a person before. Even if there is often no result in the end, at least every time he mentions this to him, his attitude is the same. It's not exclusive, it's not like this time, it's not like this time.

    In her opinion, men should be married and women should be married. And her younger brother is not like other men who have nothing to do and have low-mindedness and worry about not being able to find a partner. On the contrary, he is very good, and he is not lacking in girls' likes at all. He didn't talk about it when he was in school. For the most part, but now I have been working for almost three years, and everything has stabilized. Why haven't I heard any news about this?

    Like a few young men in the village who are the same age as him, one after another, they have had a second child. Only his younger brother, and now even a girlfriend has not been found.

    While shopping, bought some specialty snacks from M City. Because it was a bit late, it was a bit troublesome to buy food and go back to cook, so decided to just eat it at a restaurant near the mall.

    When it was time for dinner, there were a lot of people sitting on the benches at the door. Chu Yan took the number and found a seat at the door to sit and wait like the others.

    Mao Mao was still holding the cone that he just bought, and the melted cream smeared his hand. It is said that the nephew follows the uncle, and his facial features are actually five points similar to Liang Suici's appearance when he was a child, but the little guy is fleshy, and no matter what he does, it makes people feel cute.

    Liang Fangyuan took out a tissue from his bag and wiped the sticky cream on Mao Mao's hands. He suddenly remembered and asked, "By the way, why don't you ask Xiao Li if he wants to come and eat together?"

    "He, he should have eaten." Li Xi suddenly said this afternoon that he was going out for something, and he should have dinner.

    "Just ask, make a phone call and ask, in case someone doesn't eat outside and waits for us..."

    Chu Yan had no choice but to take out his mobile phone and call Li Xi, and the seat was vacated a few minutes after the call.

    As soon as they entered, the waiter arranged a place for them, because there were many customers and the dishes were freshly cooked, the speed of serving the dishes was actually a bit slow.

    When the dishes were almost ready, Li Xi just happened to arrive. Liang Fangyuan's position was facing the door, and he saw it as soon as he looked up.

    The price of this store is actually very common, and the things are very miscellaneous. When you come to eat, you don’t wear formal clothes, so as not to get dirty or smelly, it will be troublesome, so most of them dress casually. Under such circumstances , Li Xi, who was wearing a straight black suit, was particularly eye-catching.

    Liang Fangyuan's actions even paused. Because of the decoration style of the store, the light was dim. Against the hazy lighting and the extremely monotonous black and white on his body, the other side's expressionless and tough face showed the same expression as usual. Different points are sharp and strong.

    Chu Yan followed his sister's line of sight and turned back, just to see Li Xi walking in their direction.

    Li Xi stood still in front of Chu Yan. Seeing that the food had not been moved, he felt a little guilty and said, "I'm sorry, did you wait for a long time?"

    Liang Fangyuan enthusiastically pushed the menu in front of him to Li Xi, smiled and said, "It just so happens that the dishes have just arrived. You can see what else you want to eat, and then you can add more."

    The temperature in the store was very high, Li Xi took off his suit jacket and put it on the back of the chair, smiled and shook his head, "No need, that's enough."

    Chu Yan had the habit of drinking soup before meals. Li Xi used a public spoon to fill a bowl for him and put it in his hand calmly. The movement was so natural, as if it had become a habit.

    Liang Fangyuan put the chopsticks down and glanced at his younger brother. He seemed to have no appetite and was very tired. took a sip.

    The strange and subtle feeling in his heart lingered, Liang Fangyuan put a steamed shrimp in a bowl for the two of them, and said with a smile, "Don't just drink soup, eat vegetables."

    After eating for a while, Liang Fangyuan suddenly looked up at Li Xi as if on a whim and said, "Yes, Xiao Li, last time I heard you say that this year is twenty-seven, he is the same age as Xiao Ci..."

    "How about that, have you found someone?"

    Li Xi's body froze when he heard this, and subconsciously looked at Chu Yan next to him, but the other party just lowered his head and drank the soup one by one, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

    He put down his chopsticks and shook his head before he forced a smile, "Not yet..."

    "Why not?" Liang Fangyuan teased him with a smile, "With conditions like yours, there should be no shortage of girls who like it. Are you too busy with work and no time?"

    Before she could finish speaking, Liang Fangyuan's phone on the table suddenly rang. She looked down and smiled at Chu Yan, who was drinking soup, "Tell the girl you mentioned to you last New Year's Eve. I will come to M city in two days, I sent her your photo, and the girl is very satisfied, saying that I can meet you, take a look at this."

    After speaking, he transferred the photo and put it in front of Chu Yan, "This is the photo of the girl and the phone number. Would you like to save it..."

    Chu Yan picked up the phone and glanced at it, but she had a clear face, she just responded perfunctorily and lowered her head to drink the soup.

    When Liang Fangyuan saw her brother and Li Xi's expressions were not good, she stopped the topic and didn't talk about it any more.

    After a meal, it was past nine o'clock. When came out of the mall, it was raining slightly, the meandering neon lights were indistinct in the night, and there was a strong metallic smell in the air.

    Chu Yan found that Li Xi had not spoken much since his sister proposed to find him a partner during dinner. Although the expression on his face was not particularly ugly, it was definitely not good.

    Liang Fangyuan and Mao Mao went back to the guest room to sleep. After Chu Yan washed up, he lay on the bed for a while without any sleepiness. His body was obviously extremely tired, but his consciousness was very awake.

    Maybe it's because the disease of this body developed to the later stage, he often woke up in the middle of the night for no reason, his mind was dizzy but he couldn't go into deep sleep completely.

    He slept hazy until midnight. He got up and went to the kitchen to pour water. When he passed the living room, he found that the small light on the balcony was on.

    There are stars and lights outside the window, neon flowing colors, and the night is silent like water.

    Chu Yan rubbed his eyes and walked over, only to find Li Xi leaning on a wooden lounge chair with a half-drinked bottle of vodka in his hand.

    Hearing the movement, he turned his head to look at it. His facial features were very deep, and the bridge of his nose was shrouded in a faint shadow under the light. When he looked sideways, his vision was cold and sharp.

    "Why don't you go to sleep?"

    Li Xi was silent for a while, then turned his head and seemed to want to laugh, but in the end there was only a bit of a bitter but desolate smile on the corner of his mouth.

    "Nothing...just can't sleep."

    Chu Yan looked at him for a long time, and then reminded, "Let's rest early."
