Ye Huanyan hesitated for a few seconds,
"It's snowing outside. Go to bed early."
After saying this, she stood up and walked towards her room.
Ling Zhan was slightly stunned,
He thought that it was already late at night, so there wouldn't be anyone outside. He didn't expect to meet Ye Huanyan.
Ye Huanyan had been in the Ling family since he was very young. In his heart, Ye Huanyan wasn't an outsider. It wasn't until two years ago at Ling Dongming's funeral, when he heard his relatives talking about how to deal with Ye Huanyan, that he suddenly remembered that Ye Huanyan wasn't a member of the Ling family.
"Sister Yan Yan..." he called out to her in a hoarse voice.
"Yes..." Ye Huanyan turned around. "What's the matter?"
"Can I sit in your room for a while?"
These words stunned Ye Huanyan for a few seconds,
Ling Zhan quickly explained, "I can't sleep if I don't smoke. I want to talk to you for a while."
Ye Huanyan's room was lit with calming incense. The smell was light, and because of the heating in the room, it made people feel a little sleepy not long after they sat down.
Ling Zhan had already put away the cigarette box.
Ye Huanyan wrapped her own snack box from the bedside and placed it on the table,
"These were given to me by my friend before the New Year. There are sweet, salty, and sour ones. Eat whatever you like."
Ling Zhan was slightly stunned,
"Sister, I'm not a child anymore."
These words made Ye Huanyan's hand that was holding the snacks pause for a moment. Suddenly, her expression was a little embarrassed.
"That's true. Have some tea then."
A teenage boy who had just reached the rebellious stage should be very unwilling to be treated like a child by others. Although in Ye Huanyan's eyes, the fifteen-year-old Ling Zhan was indeed a child.
Ling Zhan lowered his head and took a sip of the tea,
It was jasmine tea. It was fragrant and left a lingering aftertaste, just like her.
"Are you really going to marry Brother Ling Han?"
He suddenly asked.
Ye Huanyan was stunned for a second. "You know?"
More than half a year ago, Song Yunxuan went to ask her grandmother to tell her about her relationship with Ling Han. Before Ling Han agreed, her grandmother didn't want Song Yunxuan's reputation to be damaged, so she didn't tell anyone about it. However, Ling Zhan was a member of the family. When he came back for the Spring Festival, it was normal for him to hear her grandmother and Chris talk about it when they were chatting.
Ling Zhan frowned.
"So it's true? Do you agree? "
Ye Huanyan laughed self-deprecatingly. She was the one who asked for it. How could there be such a thing as whether she agreed or not?
Ling Zhan's frown deepened when he saw that she only smiled without saying anything.
"That's true. Ling Han is a very outstanding person. All women should like him."
"How old are you? You're already starting to like someone? "Ye Huanyan suddenly looked at Ling Zhan with interest." Don't tell me you're in love? "
Ling Zhan suddenly blushed. "No, Sister Yan Yan. You're thinking too much."
Ye Huanyan raised her eyebrows and looked up at the clock on the wall.
"It's fine if you're not in love. Ling Zhan, it's getting late. Go back and get some rest."
It was already past one in the morning. Ling Zhan didn't seem to be tired, but Ye Huanyan's eyelids were already starting to droop. She couldn't help but yawn, thinking that children were so energetic.
Ling Zhan didn't want to leave, but when she saw Ye Huanyan yawn, she didn't want to stay.
Seeing Ling Zhan walk to the door, Ye Huanyan suddenly spoke.
"Smoking is bad for your health. It's just a temporary solution. If there's anything bothering you, you should tell me. If you want, I can listen to you at any time."
Ling Zhan was a sloppy person. He was now in his thirties, but he still did things all day long. Chris often had to clean up after him. There were many children at home, so it was normal that Chris couldn't take care of him. It was a miracle that Ling Zhan could grow up to be such an outstanding young man.
So Ye Huanyan didn't think that his little rebellious smoking was a big deal. She just wanted to remind him that it was bad for his health.
Ling Zhan's figure stiffened slightly, and he suddenly whispered, "There's nothing bothering me."
After closing the door, Ling Zhan stood in front of Ye Huanyan's room and slowly exhaled. He took out the half pack of cigarettes from the pocket of his down jacket. After hesitating for a while, he threw it into the trash can.
He and his two sisters had known Ye Huanyan for the same amount of time, ten years. However, ten years ago, he was five years old, so he was the first among the three of them to start remembering things. Therefore, these ten years were the ten years that he remembered very clearly.
The next morning, Ling Xue's screams and cheers rang out in the courtyard.
When Ye Huanyan got up, rubbing her eyes and yawning, the two sisters were already building a snowman in the courtyard.
Seeing Ye Huanyan come out, Ling Li grabbed the scarf around her neck and said, "Lend me this."
After saying that, he put her scarf around the snowman's neck.
Ye Huanyan touched her neck that was kissed by the cold wind and sneezed. She was completely awake.
"Ling Li, don't you have a scarf around your neck?"
Ling Zhan's voice sounded beside him.
Ling Li didn't even turn his head. "I'm cold …"
Ye Huanyan's face darkened. Before she could react, her neck suddenly felt warm. The checkered Burberry scarf was wrapped around her neck. She lowered her head and smelled the faint scent of detergent.
"Sister Yan Yan, you can use mine first."
Ye Huanyan quickly reached out to pull it away. "No, no, if you catch a cold …"
"I'm a man."
The young man's stubborn eyes shone with a strange light.
Ye Huanyan didn't refuse. "Okay then, pull your collar up. Don't catch a cold."
As soon as she said that, a snowball exploded on his right shoulder.
Snowflakes flew everywhere.
Ye Huanyan exclaimed. As soon as she turned around, she was pulled back by Ling Zhan. Suddenly, a snowball fell from the sky and hit the windowsill where she had just been standing.
"Ling Li, that's enough …" Ling Zhan's voice sounded in front of her. She sounded a little serious.
Obviously, Ling Li wasn't someone who listened to her brother so easily. Now that Ling Zhan was angry, she became more energetic. Ling Xue created snowballs from behind while she threw them in front. Four or five snowballs came crashing down one after another. In the blink of an eye, Ye Huanyan's surroundings were a mess.
Ling Zhan suddenly became angry. She picked up two snowballs from the ground and threw them at the two culprits.
"Ah …" Ling Xue screamed. "Brother, don't throw them into my collar. I'm freezing …"
Ling Li shouted, "Xue 'er, don't be afraid. I'll avenge you."
Ye Huanyan handed a snowball to Ling Zhan and said hurriedly.
"Quick, strike first to gain the initiative …"
There was a burst of screams and laughter in the courtyard.
Through the window, the blonde Chris looked back at her unruly husband who was playing with Little Bean on the sofa. She frowned and said, "Dongyu, Ah Zhan is having a snowball fight outside."
"So what? He's reading in the study all day. His brain is going to be damaged." Her husband's indifferent voice came from the sofa, mixed with Little Bean's giggles.
"Ah Zhan put his scarf around Yan Yan's neck."
"So what? He knows how to respect and cherish women. He's not stupid."
Chris looked worried. "You're really not worried …"
"Worried about what?" Ling Dongyu looked up and looked out of the window with a faint smile. "He doesn't have the ability to take someone away from Ling Han."
