chasing uncle

Chapter 2

Chapter 2 Memories of first meeting
It started with a funeral, a funeral that Tang Zhuowen was forced to attend by Tang Zhuoya, a funeral of someone completely irrelevant to him...

That is, a few months ago, Tang Zhuowen had just graduated from high school and was on vacation. It is only to blame that he had a grievance with a few gangsters in order to help Luo Yuheng get ahead. The other party stuck to them like a rotten plaster, and vowed to find them Trouble.Of course, he couldn't be obedient and just get caught, so he fought with the other party every two days, which caused him to be injured all over, and was tied to his side by his sister in a fit of anger.

The old man Li who died of old age heard that he was the founding father of his sister's company, the Xiao Group, and a veteran of three dynasties. When Xiao Muhai's grandfather was conquering the world, that old man made great contributions. Senior, Tang Zhuoya, as the employee representative of the company, went to see him off for the last time.

Hey, it's none of Tang Zhuowen's business, but even if he didn't want to, he still obediently followed his sister into the black and white auditorium, which looked a bit scary no matter how you looked at it.Tang Zhuowen, who has always been fearless, also felt a strong sense of restraint.

The hall was filled with sadness and desolation, with weeping one after another. Tang Zhuowen frowned and looked around, but he didn't dare to act rashly. Finally, after his sister greeted the old hero's family, she gave him an amnesty order and allowed him to stay in the lounge and wait. It's the beginning of the memorial service, and you are not allowed to wander around during this period.

Being allowed to stay in the lounge is already a great kindness, Tang Zhuowen obediently came to the simple cold lounge with only sofa, a few chairs and coffee table, found a comfortable place and sat down, I was bored looking at the people who sat around in twos and threes talking quietly, or looked at the people who sobbed in a low voice, or the people who were irritated there.

Swallow?He suddenly remembered the pack of cigarettes that Fu Yu gave him earlier. I heard it was imported from abroad. His sister had always disciplined him very strictly, so that he had never experienced the pleasure of puffing. Thinking of this, he took out the pack of cigarettes on his body, opened the exquisite packaging box with words he couldn't understand, smoked a cigarette from it, found a lighter on the coffee table and lit it.

First, I inhaled lightly on the cigarette holder, and then spit out the smoke directly from my mouth. It seemed that I didn't feel anything special, and smoking was nothing more than that.Then he tentatively inhaled heavily, and as a result, the smoke slammed into all directions in his mouth, rushing straight out from his mouth and nose, causing him to cough violently in embarrassment, breathing quickly, and his face turned red with pain.

A scene that surprised Tang Zhuowen was reflected in the hazy white mist. It was a tall and handsome man with outstanding looks that surpassed that of a movie star. The man was wearing a plain white suit, tall and straight. He stopped coughing and stared at him intently. Silly watching the other person walking towards him slowly, his gestures exuded the air of a king, making him in a trance for a moment, silently attracting his attention as if possessed by a demon.

Tang Zhuowen seemed to have been acupointed, and remained motionless, the sofa beside him sank, and the man sat beside him, and naturally gently smoked the cigarette in his hand, with a magnetic voice coming from his ear A voice came from the side: "Children are not allowed to smoke." The voice was soft and pampering, and seemed a little coaxing.

"...Ah?" Who is the child?His birthday is over.

Xiao Yunran quietly stared at that delicate and charming face. At this moment, those dark and moist eyes were shining with a little light, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and tears seemed to be about to roll down from his sad black eyes, making him There is an urge to reach out to catch the crystal.

The boy in front of him looks so sad and wronged, there are many large and small scratches on his pink and tender face, which is in sharp contrast to his cuteness, who is rough on this child?He looks like he won't be more than 16 years old at most, who would do anything to such a cute kid?Xiao Yunran secretly felt wronged for the other party in his heart.

He has never been a sympathetic person, he is very rich, his family is envied by everyone, his incomparable appearance, his confidantes are as numerous as mosquitoes and flies, and he lives in the eyes of everyone. There is nothing he cannot get, even There is nothing he wants, everything seems to be his, as long as he ticks his fingers, everything is under his feet, but there is only the word sympathy in his rich dictionary.

What attracted him to come over was the boy's distinctive innocence, resentment, and even a little sparkle. His innocence seemed to be unearthly, and his resentment seemed to turn into a cloud of smoke, crystal like a teardrop. He gently held it in the palm of his hand and cared for it.

Xiao Yunran admits that he is an out-and-out playboy, he doesn't think there is any problem with it, he just has a special affection for beautiful things, but so far he is only interested in women, but the boy in front of him is Let his heart fall for it, this boy is not like a mortal thing, but more like an elf written in a book, people will not have evil thoughts, just want to approach gently...

"Don't cry, the relationship between you and the deceased must be very good." Xiao Yunran took a tissue from the napkin box placed on the coffee table, stood up, and squatted beside Tang Zhuowen in a condescending manner. Looking at him sitting in front of him, he gently wiped away the tears that had just flowed down his cheeks, trying to avoid the scars on his face, with an unusually soft tone, as if he was afraid that a louder voice would frighten the horrible person in front of him. Human: "It's sad, right? But you can't come back to life after death, and learning to smoke won't solve the problem."

"...I... didn't..." Tang Zhuowen was almost stunned in confusion, but subconsciously denied, what is it?Did he cry?He stretched out his hand to touch his face, it was really wet, it must be because he coughed so violently just now that he shed tears, it is too embarrassing.But he still couldn't understand what the man said.

Tang Zhuowen's round black eyes stared at Xiao Yunran in confusion, and he didn't know how to explain it. The man's smile was so gentle, and his concerned eyes seemed to be a treasure held in the palm of his hand. The important thing was that he would never let go.No one had ever treated him so tenderly, and the feeling of being cared made his nose sore.

In Xiao Yunran's eyes, Tang Zhuowen's bewildered and sad expression was so sad, innocent, and pitiful, it could even break a person's heart.

"Hey, what a poor child..." Xiao Yunran sighed, unexpectedly pulled Tang Zhuowen into his arms, and cared for this poor boy who had just lost his beloved relative in his eyes with his warm chest.He looks so isolated and helpless, he needs to be cared and cherished.

Tang Zhuowen was so astonished that he forgot to push the other party away, and just quietly let the man eat his tofu casually, even feeling the warmth and freshness of the other party's embrace.

The people immersed in the mournful funeral seemed to be particularly tolerant. They didn't feel that there was any abruptness or incongruity between the two handsome young men hugging each other, and they even looked at them sympathetically.

"Are you feeling better? Now tell me what happened to your injury? Has someone abused you?" Seeing that the other party didn't continue to cry, Xiao Yunran gently pulled him away from her, looking straight into the other party's clear eyes, His concerned gaze was clearly imprinted there, and Xiao Yunran was a little surprised by himself, but he still put all his attention on the boy.Gently caressing the new and old scars on Tang Zhuowen's face inch by inch, the red and swollen scars of different shades covered his tender skin, making people feel distressed, Xiao Yunran secretly vowed to Give the person who hurt him a severe punishment.

"Abused...tortured...no one..." Tang Zhuowen's eyes widened as if he had heard Tianfang Yetan. The word abuse seemed too far away from him. Even if there was such a thing as abuse, who would dare to abuse him ?It's lucky that he doesn't abuse others, no, no, he can't abuse others, otherwise his sister will definitely lock him at home, thinking of the result, Tang Zhuowen trembled unconsciously.

"Are you afraid? Could it be that your family members did it so you dare not say it?" Xiao Yunran felt the other party's slight trembling, and he used his slender fingers to lift the other party's head that was slightly lowered by his touch just now, staring at the other party. looking into his eyes eagerly.If his family really did it, is he going to find him a safer place to live?

Tang Zhuowen was stunned, then shook his head violently, and waved his hands hastily: "No, no, why would my family abuse me? My family treats me very well." When the time comes, if you are still angry, you will chop him up.

His flustered reaction made Xiao Yunran firmer in his guess, and he wanted to say something more, but people had already started to gather in the hall one after another, and the memorial service was obviously about to start, Xiao Yunran stood up reluctantly, and took Tang Zhuowen's hand: "Let's go, go to the memorial service first, and we'll talk later, don't worry, I will help you." His voice was firm and powerful, not only expressing his determination, but also seemed like a promise or an oath.

"Ah? That... I'd better go by myself..." Tang Zhuowen pulled out his hand with some reluctance. Although he still wanted to stay with the man for a while, if his sister saw him chatting with a man here, he would always Still kind of weird.

Xiao Yunran hesitated thoughtfully, but finally nodded to him.

"Then wait for me here after the memorial service. I still have something to ask you, and remember to be brave." The man gently rubbed Tang Zhuowen's shiny black hair, and smiled encouragingly at him.

As a result, Tang Zhuowen did not attend the memorial service that time. After receiving a call from Luo Yuheng, he took advantage of the chaos of the crowd and sneaked away when his sister was busy preparing the memorial speech. Afterwards, she was severely taught by her sister .

But he completely remembered the man who cared about him and gave him infinite tenderness...

He thought that the intersection with the man was only that one time, it was just a small episode in his life, but he didn't expect that one day a few months later, he would see that man again, but the man had completely changed, and he refused to treat him again. He showed a little bit of tenderness, some of which were just harsh words and harsh words, and even more threats and warnings.

Tang Zhuowen and Xiao Yunran's second meeting can be regarded as fate by chance.

It was the evening of the weekend, the bright and dazzling sun turned the sky red, Tang Zhuowen and Tang Zhuoya arrived early at the restaurant they had made an appointment with Xiao Muhai, it was a western restaurant that was not very luxurious and expensive but had an elegant environment, The hazy sunset shrouded the restaurant through the windows, dyeing everything in the color of the setting sun, giving people a look of anticipation.

Tang Zhuoya is not in love with Xiao Muhai's money, so every time she goes on a date, she will ask to be in the most ordinary place, and sometimes she will even pay for it herself.

Today is different from the previous date, Xiao Muhai is going to bring his son with him, and wants to get the consent of the other party, so that they can successfully end their two-year relationship and finally enter the palace of marriage.

"Sister, are you nervous too?" Tang Zhuowen watched with great interest as his sister looked at the door of the restaurant anxiously, as if sitting on pins and needles, the hand holding the cup subconsciously turned slightly.

Tang Zhuoya is considered a strong woman, she is a beautiful and intelligent woman, she takes care of her brother who is six years younger than herself, like a little mother, she is strong and resilient, always giving people a decisive and firm feeling, calm as if everything is under control middle.

It is rare for Tang Zhuowen to see his sister so restless. Of course, he knows how important Xiao Muhai is to his sister, but he still has to tease his sister. First, he hopes she can relax, and second, he has confidence in her No matter how big brother Ren Xiao's son is, he will be conquered by his sister even if he has three heads and six arms.

"..." Tang Zhuoya had no intention of paying attention to her brother's teasing at all, she glared at him and remained silent.

"Why, I'm so nervous that I don't even dare to say anything. Is brother Xiao's son a monster? Are you afraid that guy will eat you?" Tang Zhuowen took the opportunity to take revenge on his sister who had always been strict with him, and repeated it again and again. provoke each other.

"Shut up." Tang Zhuoya couldn't bear it anymore.

"...Hey...let me guess what kind of person he is...well...maybe he is a ferocious person, who looks completely different from Brother Xiao, like a fierce Zhang Fei who is extremely barbaric and vulgar, and is very difficult to talk to , It doesn't make sense at all, it's sister, you are out of luck; of course, you may be a hypocritical villain, just like Snow White's stepmother, thinking about how to find fault with you every day, so you can It's terrible..." Tang Zhuowen made a frightening gesture as he spoke, as if he was the one who was slaughtered, and after seeing his sister's obviously displeased expression, he smiled flatteringly, "Then you don't have to be too serious. I'm worried, I'm just talking casually, maybe he is very...a gentle...gentle..." Tang Zhuowen's voice gradually weakened, and finally it was almost inaudible. He couldn't believe his eyes, staring blankly. Looking at the entrance of the restaurant, oh my god, the man who gently comforted him at the funeral actually walked towards him again. The man was wearing a light pink casual shirt with the top button open, and dark jeans wrapped his slender legs , looks sexy and uninhibited.

When he saw Tang Zhuowen for the first time, the man seemed to have shown a flash of surprise, which was replaced by a polite smile, and he never showed any more emotions after that.

Xiao Muhai introduced Tang Zhuoya's proud son Xiao Yunran to Tang Zhuoya, and Tang Zhuoya also introduced her baby brother to him. Since Tang Zhuowen had already known Xiao Muhai well, there was nothing cautious about it. After exchanging a few pleasantries, I sat down.

Even though he was warned by his sister's eyes, Tang Zhuowen still ignored him, and stared at Xiao Yunran with a pair of aura eyes for a moment, with a slight smirk, the man looks more and more handsome, Tang Zhuowen guessed whether the other party still remembers him, but he is right Men never forget.

"Xiao Zhuo, have you seen enough?" Tang Zhuoya gently pushed the younger brother beside her, with a slight embarrassment on her delicate face, she scolded in a low voice.

"What's the matter, Xiao Zhuo...do you know each other?" Xiao Muhai was stunned for a while, apparently also a little confused by Tang Zhuowen's staring eyes at Xiao Yunran, but he didn't care as much as Tang Zhuoya, and his face was still hanging. With his usual amiable smile, he is approachable.

"How is it possible, but I wish I could meet such a lovely person earlier." Xiao Yunran answered for Tang Zhuowen without any trace, as if he didn't want others to notice their previous encounter, and lightly glanced at the boy's unforgettable cuteness cheek, ignoring the surprised and slightly confused expression on the other side.

"Actually, we met Xiaoyun once, at Mr. Li's funeral, remember? Mu Hai, Xiaoyun went with you that time. Of course, Xiaoyun definitely doesn't remember us, after all, we were in the crowd It is not easy to find and remember ordinary people like us. But I am still impressed by such an outstanding man as Xiao Yun, to be honest Xiao Yun is more handsome than I imagined." Tang Zhuoya said sincerely, completely There is no compliment, because the other party is really like a dazzling diamond, shining in every corner of the restaurant, which can be verified from the eyes of the people around.

"Thank you Miss Xiaoya for your compliment, you can't praise me like that, I'll be proud." The man smiled at Tang Zhuoya naturally and generously, without any spoiled appearance, even when he heard the compliment, he behaved generously and decently. Mature charm beyond her age.

"Why do you call me sister? You should call me aunt." Xiao Muhai frowned, a little dissatisfied, which seemed to be an invisible reminder of the age gap between him and Tang Zhuoya.

"Miss Xiaoya is so young and beautiful, I can't call her auntie." Xiao Yunran smiled and showed her neat and white teeth.

"Call it whatever you want, it's just a title, why bother?" Tang Zhuoya smiled indifferently.

"Then... just call it that first." The person concerned had no objections, so Xiao Muhai had no reason to persevere. Although he felt a little reluctant in his heart, he had to make a compromise.

"That's actually me..." Tang Zhuowen interjected to tell about the chance meeting with the other party, but was interrupted by Xiao Yunran with a smile, "Xiao Zhuo is hungry, do you want to order food now? Or order something to drink first " Xiao Yunran showed a sedate and charming smile, looking at the person across the way who was always smiling silly at him, the boy did not have the grievance and confusion when they first met, but was more playful and cute.

"It's still early, we're not hungry yet, let's chat first." Tang Zhuoya looked at Xiao Muhai and his son, she wanted to spend more time communicating with them, mainly to get Xiao Yunran's approval, although the other party was not dissatisfied signs, but the other party did not nod in agreement, she would inevitably still feel faintly uneasy.

"Then order two glasses of orange juice first, can you?" Xiao Muhai asked considerately, he knew that Tang Zhuowen likes to drink orange juice the most.

"Okay." Tang Zhuoya nodded and looked at Tang Zhuowen. The other party seemed to have no objection, his eyes were still firmly attached to Xiao Yunran. If the other party was a woman, she would definitely feel that she was always nervous Datiao's younger brother has a nympho.

"Sister Xiaoya is actually more beautiful than I imagined, and she is much more gentle. When my father told me that I would meet you, I have been looking forward to it." Xiao Yunran looked at the face that was very similar to Tang Zhuowen, and the face in front of him Women are more dignified and gentle, while Tang Zhuowen is more cute and playful. The wound on his face has completely healed, and there are no traces of it. I am a little confused how I saw the grievance on this cute and delicate face that day. and bewildered.

"Hehe, is that right? Xiao Yun really knows how to speak. Although I know that you said it out of politeness, I'm still very happy, really." A trace of warmth crossed Tang Zhuoya's heart, and Xiao Yunran seemed completely Under the expression of sincerity, her uneasy heart was relieved, and it seemed that the other party's attitude did not look like she would refuse to accept her.

"Then you don't object to the marriage between my elder sister and brother Xiao?" Tang Zhuowen raised his head and stared at the other party with bright eyes, pure as a transparent crystal, with emotions completely hanging on his face, it can be seen that he is How I look forward to the affirmative answer from the man.

Tang Zhuowen's question touched everyone's heart, and the eyes of the remaining two people immediately turned to Xiao Yunran. It's not that they don't know what it means to everyone, but when asked this question so directly, Xiao Yunran still Somewhat surprised, he smiled silently and did not give a positive answer.

Tang Zhuowen couldn't help but leaned towards the man across the table, hey, this man is really handsome, even if he watched from such a close distance, he couldn't see any flaws, the dazzling diamonds can stand Observe the test from any angle.

At this moment, Tang Zhuoya has no time to care about whether her younger brother's actions are polite, but waits expectantly for Xiao Yunran's reply.

"...Of course, how could I object." The man looked at Tang Zhuowen inexplicably, and slowly spit out a few words.

At the same time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Yunran did not ignore his father's immediate movement of holding Tang Zhuoya's hand.

Hearing this, Tang Zhuowen became even more delighted. Thinking of becoming a close family member with a man, he was overjoyed. As a result, he overturned the glass of fresh orange juice that the waiter had just brought up on his own. What can be called expensive clothes.

"Ah...my clothes...my sister...I'm sorry..." Tang Zhuowen immediately apologized to his sister, sticking out her tongue. This is the new clothes that the old sister bought for him for this special day at a huge price. Picking up the napkin on the table and wiping his clothes, Tang Zhuowen wrinkled his whole face irritably when he saw the large yellow marks.

"You are really..." Tang Zhuoya's face flushed for a while, this younger brother was so careless, causing trouble for her regardless of the location and occasion, she nodded slightly to apologize to the father and son on the opposite side.

"It's okay, go to the bathroom and wash it, it's uncomfortable to dress like this." Xiao Muhai didn't mind, but was considerate for the other party.

"Okay, then I'll go to the bathroom first." Tang Zhuowen looked troublesome, pulled away the chair rudely, and ran to the bathroom.

Xiao Yunran followed suit and stood up, his movements were neat but polite, "I think I'd better go help him, excuse me first."

Tang Zhuowen was standing in front of the sink, holding a hand towel prepared for guests and dipped in water to clean his miserable shirt little by little.Xiao Yunran followed him into the bathroom, leaned against the door and looked at the other person's movements in silence.

"Hehe, what a coincidence, we are so happy to meet again, you know? When I saw you just now, I thought I was hallucinating. I didn't expect to see you again. Think about us You will soon become a family, it’s really...hehe...you don’t even know..." Tang Zhuowen chattered endlessly, regardless of the occasion and location, expressing his excitement and joy of seeing each other again, completely immersed in his own surprise. He didn't notice the other party's gradually furrowed eyebrows.

"Hey, let me tell you, before I came here, my elder sister was so nervous, and now she must be happily calling Long live in her heart...Brother Xiao was always too scared to tell you..." Tang Zhuo Wen simply put down the towel in his hand, and didn't care about the uncomfortable sticking of the soaked shirt to his body. Instead, he came to the man, gesticulating with joy, dancing and talking non-stop.

"Should it be enough for you?" The man interrupted the other party's endless words in a deep voice, and glanced at the stranger who was walking towards the toilet. Knocking the door, Tang Zhuowen was puzzled by his swift action, staring blankly at the other party's sudden change.

It wasn't until Xiao Yunran rudely pushed him to sit on the toilet that Tang Zhuowen woke up from the astonishment, and exclaimed in disbelief: "Ah...what...what?" He lifted his legs up, kept his legs as steady as possible, and finally escaped the predicament of falling into the toilet after shaking a few times, but still bumped into his hip.

"Is it intentional? Is it fun to play me?" Xiao Yunran kicked the opponent's calf, and successfully made the opponent raise his shocked face. The eyebrows furrowed deeper.

"What do you mean? How could I play tricks on you? It's definitely a big misunderstanding." Tang Zhuowen stared at his big innocent eyes, and kept waving his hands, so anxious that he couldn't stand still and bumped into the opponent.

"What are you doing, stop pretending to be stupid with me." Xiao Yunran pulled the other party's shaking body away from him, leaned his face to the other party's face, grabbed the other party's collar and unceremoniously pressed Tang Zhuowen against the partition of the toilet , staring viciously at the other party, shaking his head in denial in panic.

"I really don't know what you mean. You can just say it straight. I'm stupid and my comprehension is relatively poor." I knew that I should study hard, why can't he understand the man's words at all.

"You already knew about the relationship between your sister and my dad, so you pretended to be pitiful at the funeral to win my sympathy, but I was so stupid as to approach you..." Xiao Yunran gritted his teeth as if he had already recognized the truth. , he hates the feeling of being cheated the most, it is completely questioning his IQ, especially being cheated by this guy in front of him who seems to be not very flexible, slow to respond, and he doesn't know whether he is pretending to be stupid or really stupid, this is simply against him An insult to intelligence.The hand holding the opponent's collar unconsciously tightened due to anger.

"Oh... so it's this... yes, oh no... I actually knew about their relationship a long time ago, but I didn't know that Brother Xiao was your father, and I didn't pretend to be pitiful, it was you... Come here Yes." Tang Zhuowen looked like it was no big deal, pulled the other party's hand that was holding his collar, and gradually lowered his voice when the other party's face was getting darker and darker, and gradually stopped.

The man's sharp gaze carefully studied and judged Tang Zhuowen's face, examining whether he was lying. Tang Zhuowen felt a little embarrassed when he saw him, and grinned silly.

"Okay, only if I was blind will I feel that you deserved sympathy at that time. It's best that everything you said is true." The man seemed to believe his words, and pushed away after leaving the cold warning He, turned and exited the toilet cubicle.

"Hey, it's actually not a big deal. It's fine if I explain it clearly. Everyone is going to be a family, so don't make a fuss. Just because of you, I had a close contact with the toilet." , buttocks are still hurting, but I'm very generous and won't play tricks on you..." Tang Zhuowen chattered endlessly with his head down, rubbing his buttocks while following Xiao Yunran's Walk out behind.

"Ah..." Tang Zhuowen slammed his head on the man who stopped suddenly, "...why did you stop, it hurt so much." He complained in a coquettish tone, looking at the man in confusion.

What he answered was the man's fierce stare... What's the matter, he didn't bump into him on purpose, it was obvious that the other party stopped for no reason, and his nose hurt, so he didn't pursue it.

The atmosphere of the dinner that followed was very harmonious. Xiao Yunran's obvious unfriendly attitude just now disappeared. Maybe it was because he believed that Tang Zhuowen did not deliberately deceive him, or maybe it was because of his father's presence. Xiao Muhai was also very pleased to see that the considerate and gentle man actually showed his courtesy to the Tang family siblings from time to time.Therefore, Tang Zhuowen quickly forgot the man's indifferent attitude towards him in the bathroom before. In his few memories of the man, what remained was the tenderness and care of the man.
