childhood sweethearts forever

Chapter 19 The Only Relative

As her only "relative" in New York, Luo Peng naturally took on the role of tour guide.In fact, according to Luo Ying's thinking, don't bother Luo Peng.But Luo's father had already called Luo Peng and asked him to arrange everything there.

Luo Peng was silent on the phone for a long time, and then said "OK" softly.

Luo Ying felt that his word "good" was full of dissatisfaction, so she called him privately and told him that she and Yan Bingxin didn't need to bother him.

Luo Peng seemed to be busy with things at the time, so he responded casually.Seeing that he agreed so readily, Luo Ying felt a sense of loss in her heart.She obviously didn't want to trouble him, but when she heard that he agreed, she felt a little uncomfortable.

She patted her head and scolded herself for being too hypocritical.

But at night, Luo Ying received another call from Luo Peng.When she swiped the on button, her fingers trembled a little.

"What did you say today? I was busy and didn't hear clearly."

There was the sound of pages turning over the phone, and he was still busy.

"If you are very busy, I don't want to disturb you in the past. Bingxin and I can do it together."

"No, New York is very big, with mixed fish and fish. You two are not familiar with the place, so it's easy to get into trouble when you go there. I will arrange accommodation for you, call me when you arrive, and I will pick you up." His tone could not be tolerated. Doubtful, the sound of turning pages on the phone seemed to increase.

Luo Ying opened her lips, and they froze for a moment, unable to say a word of rejection.

After a long time, she swallowed her throat and said softly, "Okay, then... I will trouble you..."

"En." Luo Peng responded in a low voice.

The two fell into silence for a while, and the sound of each other's breathing traveled across the ocean and went round and round to each other's ears.She didn't speak again, and neither did he.

It wasn't until Aunt Fu came to look for her and there was a knock on the door that Luo Ying hurriedly turned off the phone and went to open the door.

Aunt Fu brought her a fruit platter and told her to go to bed early at night.She nodded, and a torrent suddenly flashed in her mind. At night...then he in Oceanian Xi'an should be in the morning.

When she called him earlier, it should have been midnight over there, and he was still busy.Now early in the morning, he is busy again, has he not rested?Luo Ying sat blankly on the bed, numbly took an orange petal and put it in her mouth.

He went there to study, not to work, logically speaking, there is no need to work so hard.Luo Ying remembered that he had stomach cramps once, if he doesn't rest well and eats irregularly now, then he... She pursed her lips, feeling worried and blaming herself at the same time.

Why didn't she notice the time difference when she called him earlier?She called him at two o'clock in the afternoon, so it should be two o'clock in the middle of the night on his side...

Luo Ying felt like chewing wax, lying on the bed, her body was in the shape of a big character.The white light from the crystal lamp, with a hint of vague warmth, fascinated her eyes.She blinked her eyes, grabbed the ball beside her, and said quietly, "I'm going to see him soon, are you excited? Hehe...he is your first master..."

Maruko maintained an eternal smile, looking at the crystal lamp with round black eyes.

After Luo Peng put down the phone, he closed his eyes and gently rubbed the center of his brows with his right hand, a trace of exhaustion faintly showing on his face.He got up to make a cup of coffee, and when he came back, he found his phone was on.He opened it and saw that it was a text message from Luo Ying: Take good care of your body, rest more, and watch your diet.

At the end, she also attached a smiley face.

The corners of Luo Peng's lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared on his tired face.He wanted to say thank you, but he stopped his fingers on the screen and smiled helplessly.

As soon as the summer vacation came, Luo Ying and Yan Bingxin packed their luggage and started their trip to the United States.The two got off the plane and stood on the spacious Kennedy Airport, feeling very excited.

Yan Bingxin held her hand and led her out of the airport.

Luo Ying rolled her eyes and looked around for Luo Peng. She had already told Luo Peng the time of the flight last night.Yan Bingxin patted the back of her head with a smile, and said dotingly, "Here...the person you are looking for is in front..."

When Luo Ying heard this, she immediately raised her head to look.

I haven't seen him for two years, Luo Peng hasn't changed much, his facial features are deep and handsome, and his expression is still indifferent.He leaned against the silver luxury car behind him, and when he saw the two of them, there was a distant and indifferent smile on his lips.

Yan Bingxin took a step forward and walked in front of Luo Peng. The two shook hands at the same time and greeted each other.

"Hi, I'm Yan Bingxin. Are you Xiaoying's brother? I often hear her mention you." Yan Bingxin smiled softly.

Luo Ying was a little embarrassed by the side. When did she often mention him?

"Heh..." Luo Peng twitched half of his mouth, half-smiling, "Really? You've been exhausted all the way, hurry up and get in the car and go to the hotel to rest." His voice was low and calm, and there was no superfluous emotion.

But Yan Bingxin could feel the alienation in Luo Peng's eyes.He knew a lot about the Luo family, and he could roughly guess why Luo Peng had such an attitude towards him and Luo Ying.After all, it is normal for brothers and sisters to have estrangements due to half fathers and half mothers.

It's just that he doesn't know that these two people are not half-brothers and sisters, but have nothing to do with each other.

Luo Ying quietly stayed aside, with her head down.

Yan Bingxin hugged her waist, pushed her into the back seat, and teased, "What's wrong? Why did you become so gentle today?"

Luo Ying said "ah", opened her lips and was speechless, glanced at Luo Peng who was already sitting in the driver's seat, and then said with a sneer, "I'm a little tired."

Yan Bingxin rubbed her hair, sat next to her, smiled slightly, "I'll be at the hotel right away, take a good rest."

"En." Luo Ying replied in a low voice, then turned her gaze out of the window, pretending to be empty.

New York is much more prosperous than City S, with monster-like high-rise buildings lined up on both sides. Before nightfall, the whole city is full of flashy and extravagant atmosphere.

Luo Ying leaned against the window and hiccupped, not getting used to the jet lag yet.

Luo Peng booked a room for the two at a hotel in the city center. As soon as the car stopped, the concierge came running over to carry their luggage for them.

Luo Ying looked around, this hotel can be regarded as a low-key luxury.From the outside, it looks like three or four stars at most, but the facilities and services inside are definitely five stars.

Luo Peng booked two rooms, settled them down, answered a phone call, and waited for him to go back to deal with urgent matters.He glanced at the two couples who were whispering, and said, "Have you thought about where to go?"

When Luo Ying heard about the fun, she immediately became interested, her eyes glowed with starlight, and she said, "We plan to see Niagara Falls first, then Chinatown, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, and Central Park." She had planned these places before.

Luo Peng nodded, and then said, "I have something urgent to go back now. I will pick you up in the evening and go to Philock to clean up the dust for you."

Yan Bingxin smiled gracefully, and said wittily, "Thank you brother."

Luo Peng raised his brows slightly, and his phoenix eyes flashed with displeasure, but in a blink of an eye they returned to their usual indifference.And when Luo Ying heard Yan Bingxin's natural and friendly "Brother", he instantly felt like the sky was spinning like thunder.

Growing up so big, she had never called him brother.

This... Did Yan Bingxin pay the wrong ass?Luo Ying felt like crying but had no choice but to bury her head even deeper.

Fortunately, Luo Peng didn't say anything, but turned and left.

Yan Bingxin put his arms around Luo Ying, looked at Luo Peng's leaving back, and said with a smile, "When you were in F University, your brother's name was like a thunderbolt."

Luo Ying glanced at him, her face darkened, "Well, you are on a par with him, two big men of power..." She has been with Yan Bingxin for more than two years, and she still doesn't know where his "wind and cloud" is.

Yan Bingxin raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Bingxin is not talented, thanks to everyone's love."

Luo Ying burst out laughing, then pushed the suitcase into the room, "Hey, I'm a little tired, I need to rest for a while, you go and do your own things." It's three o'clock in the afternoon, sleep for a few hours , just waiting for Luo Peng to come to them.

Yan Bingxin came in after her, smacked his tongue, and seemed a little dissatisfied, "Why did your brother book two rooms for us? He's playing a mandarin duck!"

Luo Ying's thoughts were all focused on the three words "your brother", which made her feel a little flustered, but she didn't pay attention to Yan Bingxin's words.She turned around and looked at Yan Bingxin, and said righteously, "Don't call him brother, it's too...too nasty..."

She couldn't think of any reason, so she said so.

Yan Bingxin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and said solemnly, "I obey! Ma'am!"

Luo Ying raised her fist and approached his chin, pretending to be fierce, "How many times have I said, you can't call me madam..."

Yan Bingxin wrapped his arms around her waist, leaned down and kissed her forehead, and then smiled leisurely, "Well, okay, I won't call you in front of others, it's okay to call you in private, madam?"

He blinked his eyes, and there was actually some sense of grievance in his eyes.Seeing him like this, outsiders thought she detested him as a husband.She couldn't hold back Bingxin, so she nodded weakly in agreement.

When she saw him for the first time, how could she feel that there was a gloomy aura about him?He is clearly a haunting big devil...

At six o'clock in the evening, Luo Peng showed up at the door of the hotel on time.Luo Ying changed into a long floral dress, covered her hair, dressed up a bit, and went out with Yan Bingxin.

The Philock that Luo Peng mentioned is the largest bar in New York, which is opened on the busiest street.From a distance, I saw the English letters of Philock shining with colorful light, hanging on the brown building.

Philock's private room is divided into two, one side is a place for singing and entertainment, and the other is an ordinary dining place.The atmosphere in the entire private room is very quiet. The surrounding wallpaper is pasted with Chinese-style blue and white porcelain, revealing an elegant atmosphere, not like a drunken bar at all.
