Ting Meng looked at Sui Yan , and did not mean to be unhappy, on the contrary, he felt happy whenever Sui Yan kissed him. He scooped up a spoonful of cake, and fed it to Sui Yan again.
Sui Yan naturally opened his mouth and ate it. He and Ting Meng could not have been closer, and it was not unusual for them to eat the same cake. Both he and Ting Meng felt this way, but most of the people at the party were surprised, but not as much as they were surprised by Ting Meng's suspicions about his identity.
Ting Meng from the Meng family illegitimate son into the Xiao family's firstborn young son, this transformation is not ordinary big, his father is the current Xiao family head, Ting Meng also has the right of succession.
Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, who knows why it will be like that.
When someone came to probe him, he said directly, "Iris is the young son of the lost wielding people.
He had to recall all the people of the Xiao family's first line and important side lines to the old Xiao mansion and revise the part of the family tree about Ting Meng's untimely death in their presence, so as to truly recognize the ancestors.
Huimin Xiao and Zhou Ning don't want to condemn Ting Meng at all, and he plans to hold a banquet after the wedding, and invite all the big and small families in North City to announce the news in public. There is no need to rush this, as Ting Meng and Sui Yan will have to wait for the right time.
After they spoke to Elder Xiao, he asked to come over to see Ting Meng, but in fact Huimin Xiao and Zhou Ning both knew that he wanted to see Sui Yan, but what he really had in mind, even Huimin Xiao was not quite sure.
While Ting Meng was eating the cake, Bo Xiao approached him and Sui Yan talked to him while they were discussing about where the Xu family and Xiao's family would stay for the night.
There are rooms in the Yan residence, but it is unlikely that both families will stay there at the same time, except for their other guests who have their own places to stay or go in Sea City.
They naturally can't have no place to go, but Sui Yan how to arrange or can be divided into close and distant, what he wants is Sui Yan this attitude, he is closer to the Xiao family, or closer to the Xu family.
Bo Xiao felt embarrassed, so she came to Sui Yan to discuss.
Sui Yan pondered for a moment and then had an answer, "Tell Uncle Grandpa I have arranged a suite for him at the hotel."
Bo Xiao was surprised at his words, quite puzzled, and met Sui Yan's eyes again, Bo Xiao did not dare to have any hesitation, he nodded his head and turned around to do what Sui Yan had ordered.
In fact, the morning Shumin Xu and Sui Yan in the study conversation, he had an answer, the Yan's in the dark for so many years, how can as Shumin Xu's wish easy reconciliation, but he still came to Sea City as a lobbyist to come.
Between Sui Yan and his best friend, he chooses his best friend, he has already made his choice, then Sui Yan does not need to hesitate. Sui Yan won't do anything that can't be done with both the fish and the bear's paw.
Shumin Xu's face immediately cold cold, but his connotation is also impossible to immediately angry, and even his face that momentary change of color, but also not easy to find, but Elder Xiao and Shumin Xu face to face sitting, Bo Xiao in talking to him, he has also been looking at him, naturally able to detect.
Shumin Xu was not happy, Master Xiao was obviously in a better mood, he did not talk to Shumin Xu again, he looked around and finally came towards Sui Yan and Ting Meng.
Ting Meng finished eating the cake, Sui Yan still whispered something to him, Xiao Laozi stood for a while before those two noticed him.
"Grandpa is tired, I'll have someone take you to rest," Sui Yan said this to Elder Xiao as she held Ting Meng's hand.
As a matter of fact, after hearing this, Master Xiao's mouth curved, and then he looked serious again and gave a soft "hmm".
Ting Meng is a complete stranger to Elder Xiao, so he didn't know what he could say, and he thought about it and said, "Grandpa, good night."
"Hmm," Elder Xiao responded again, but in a tone that was noticeably softer than when he responded to Sui Yan.
Not only did Huimin Xiao and Zhou Ning feel ashamed of Ting Meng, but he also felt more or less the same way, as he was still in charge when Zhou Ning and Ting Meng were kidnapped and he had an unshirkable responsibility.
But Ting Meng obviously did not feel the difference in tone, his look at the old man Xiao, the gaze did not feel afraid, just think he is not very talkative, should be anything is a "hmm".
After the cake was cut, it was not too early, so people left one after another. Shumin Xu was a little late, and he seemed to be a little confused about Sui Yan's idea, but finally Sui Yan and Ting Meng walked him to the car, and he didn't ask another question.
It was Sui Yan who told Shumin Xu in no uncertain terms, "I will not show mercy."
Xu family and Yan's only have love, Sui Yan and Yan's only feud, he will not leave Yunsheng Yan any chance of resurgence.
With the Xu family gone, and the guests in Sea City gone, the original lively birthday party suddenly went quiet.
After Sui Yan and Ting Meng finished seeing off the guests, Ting Meng took Sui Yan's hand and said seriously, "If there is anything I can do to help, you must tell me."
Sui Yan sniffed and pulled Ting Meng a little closer, but felt that this distance was not enough, he stopped and embraced Ting Meng, his voice was soft and sure, "You have helped me a lot."
If Xiao had also come to the opposite side, Sui Yan would not have had the heart to hold any birthday party. But what Xiao can do for him remains to be considered, and Sui Yan has no intention of doing it.
Ting Meng leaned on Sui Yan and gave her another advice, "Don't get tired, I'll feel sorry for you."
"Yeah, I know," Sui Yan smiled, he really hasn't been tired from work lately, and if there's really anything to make Sui Yan tired, it's Ting Meng herself, but Ting Meng automatically forgets her pestering look when she gets out of bed.
"It's late, I'll show you my birthday present for you."
Ting Meng leaned against Sui Yan and yawned lazily, the time was a little late for Ting Meng.
"Good," Sui Yan nodded gently, then embraced Ting Meng and walked inside, where they saw Manjia Yan and Zhou Ning, who were still talking, in the living room.
"Everyone is tired from today's day, so you two should get an early rest too."
Manjia Yan saw Sui Yan and Ting Meng immediately said so, Zhou Ning also immediately nodded, "Nuo Nuo go to sleep,, tomorrow morning mommy cooked dumplings for you to eat."
Ting Meng sniffed hesitantly before nodding, "We shouldn't get up early, mom just cooks, and don't get up too early."
"Good," Zhou Ning said, and immediately responded, loving Ting Meng's concern for her.
Zhou Ning and Huimin Xiao also arranged rooms in the Yan residence, but Ziang Xiao and Zimo Xiao refused, and Sui Yan didn't force them to stay, he asked them to come over for dinner tomorrow morning.
Sui Yan and Ting Meng and Manjia Yan Zhou Ning said good night before going upstairs to their rooms. Ting Meng's eyes lit up twice when he saw the bed, but before he could lie down on it, he was first hugged by Sui Yan.
"It's too late not to wash, but the clothes first have to be changed before."
Ting Meng nodded blankly, he did want to roll on the bed, he lifted his hand, and still felt tired, leaned directly into Sui Yan's arms, let him continue to take off, "I'll rest for a while, then I'll take off for you."
Sui Yan smiled helplessly at his words, he naturally knew Ting Meng's intention, but if he really let Ting Meng take it off for him, it would be a long time before they could lie in bed and go to sleep. He took off Ting Meng and then put on his pajamas, and then he took off his own pajamas and put them back on.
Ting Meng looked at Sui Yan, cheeks more reverie scarlet, but he really feel tired today, just want, he did not come up to provoke.
They went to the bathroom to wash their faces and brush their teeth before coming back to bed. Ting Meng lay down in Sui Yan's arms and pondered for a while before saying, "Actually, let's forget about that time in the morning and talk about it tomorrow."
Sui Yan tilted his head, then raised his hand to cover Ting Meng's eyes, he was not thinking about this, but Ting Meng thought, may say or do something to write, then they really should not get up tomorrow.
"By the way, you haven't seen the gift I gave you."
Ting Meng held Sui Yan's wrist and pulled him away, then crawled over most of Sui Yan's body, pulled open the nightstand and took out the birthday present he gave Sui Yan, wrapped in a fairly elaborate gift box on the outside.
Ting Meng took the present and crawled back to where he was lying, he sat down, held the present in both hands and handed it to Sui Yan with great solemnity, "Happy birthday present, happy birthday."
It was past twelve o'clock, Sui Yan's birthday had already been counted, but Ting Meng still wanted to say it again. Now, next year, every year after Sui Yan's birthday, he will say it again.
Sui Yan took Ting Meng's gift with both hands and fondled it for a moment before sitting up. He took Ting Meng and let him lean into his arms before opening the gift box, a lavender crystal bottle with the characters "Ting Yan BestLove" engraved on the bottle.
Sui Yan touched the words again, he inclined his head to look at Ting Meng for a moment, then asked softly, "Why do you think Ting Yan sounds good?"
Ting Meng naturally had nothing to hide from Sui Yan, he leaned against her and poked her chest again.
"I want to follow your last name."
Ting Meng knew that his last name was not Meng, and worked out a name to leave to himself, but now that his family has found it, he can't use the name himself, but he can still use it for his perfume.
This bottle carries the obsession and long-cherished wish of Ting Meng for two lifetimes, and it is not too much to name it after what he wanted.
"Do you think it sounds good?" Ting Meng said, for a while Sui Yan was speechless, he looked up again and asked.
Sui Yan's throat choked gently, then he nodded, "Good to hear."
He was speechless since he couldn't be feeling speechless, he was feeling moved, and the emotion he felt when he saw the launch was coming back again now, when it was just him and Ting Meng, two times more intense than downstairs, in front of everyone, so much so that he couldn't think of anything to say to Ting Meng.
"The first time I saw it, I was very happy. Ting Meng asked again, the gift box opened, the fragrance of perfume can not be hidden, Ting Meng in the end more concerned about Sui Yan's feelings, afraid that he did not like it.
"It smells good," Sui Yan answered again, this is Ting Meng's tailor-made perfume for him, not only smells good, but also fits Sui Yan's preference and aura, he doesn't need Ting Meng to ask again, he embraces Ting Meng more tightly and gives him the answer that he hasn't asked yet.
"I like it, I really do."
Ting Meng finally took his heart back into his stomach when he heard the words, he took the perfume bottle and climbed over Sui Yan again and put it back into the bedside table.
He wanted to climb back again, but halfway up he was locked by Sui Yan waist, this position he happened to be sitting on Sui Yan, Ting Meng looked back at Sui Yan, looked puzzled, "What, you still want to ......" look ......
Sui Yan's kiss was not affected by sleep at all, and he kissed Ting Meng so that he gradually fell backwards, the two of them switched positions, and the direction they were lying changed from the head of the bed to the end.
Ting Meng's eyes turned from rounded to narrowed, he just didn't understand why Sui Yan wanted to do it again, he still didn't refuse, he could even say that he cooperated, his trust in Sui Yan was beyond all, his body relaxed, and everything else was easy.
They rolled from the outside of the bed to the inside again, and when they finally finished, Ting Meng was back in his usual sleeping position.
But he didn't find that, he just felt tired, he squinted his eyes, rubbed Sui Yan haphazardly , his tone was slightly accusatory, "I'm all drained by you ......"
After these words, Ting Meng's eyes were completely closed and she fell asleep with her arms around her.
Sui Yan originally felt that he had gone too far, but hearing Ting Meng's words, those apologies could not rise again, he smiled, and kissed Ting Meng on the cheek, he patted him for a while, so that he was completely asleep, and only then he got up to clean up for them.
After getting him back in bed, he looked at his watch and it was already two o'clock in the night.
He reached for his phone with the intention of sending a text message to Bo Xiao Feng Wang and the others, but found an unread message.
After a quick glance, Sui Yan got up from the bed again. He put on his clothes, went to the small balcony outside the bedroom and dialed the phone.
"What is it?"
There is also a man's voice, at this time, his tone still does not have any weary feeling, he also do not have more pleasantries, directly open to say what to say, "My people told me, Siyu Su today there are abnormal."
"TV?" Sui Yan reacted quickly, and as soon as he asked, there was silence, just as Sui Yan had guessed.
There was a pause, continued, "After looking at the place where he lives can smash things, then he quiet again, what he intends to do next, my people can not set the words, but he basically gained his trust."
"If he's planning to go to Li City next, you let him go."
He stood on the balcony for a while longer before heading to the room.
Ting Meng was really tired and did not notice Sui Yan leaving, Sui Yan looked carefully at Ting Meng and found that he did not sleep well because of his departure, his face just floated a little warm color, he pulled the quilt, embraced people, also closed his eyes.
The next day Yan home, in addition to the early to bed Xiao Laozi, there are no other early risers, especially Sui Yan and Ting Meng, came downstairs are almost nine o'clock, the most important early to bed and early to get up the word of health Xiao Laozi, beard cocked, but in the end did not say anything to lecture.
But when Ting Meng sat down on the sofa after breakfast, Elder Xiao spoke again, "Pack up and come back to North City with us."
Ting Meng looked stunned for a moment, tilted his head to look at Elder Xiao, and then looked at Sui Yan who was talking to Huimin Xiao by the door, but before he could answer anything, Elder Xiao spoke again.
"You return to the Xiao family, in order to possibly help him, otherwise what makes the Xiao family for you to go against Yan? You should know that Yan can stand these years, to move him can not be so easy, if there is no Xiao, Yan boy but a hard battle to fight."
His own grandmother's side of the Xu family chose to sit back and do nothing, how dare the other families, even the Zhong and Yan relationship is good, they have not taken any position, even Ming Zhong did not dare to propose to Sui Yan that to persuade his grandfather to help.
Matters relating to the interests of the family, not so easy to decide, other families can not take advantage of the situation, is already considered generous.
Elder Xiao's words were actually quite pertinent, but Ting Meng's eyes remained unchanged as he gently shook his head, "I believe Sui Yan, even without your help, he can do anything he wants to do."
"He wouldn't want me to go, I know that."
Ting Meng's trust in Sui Yan was beyond the expectations of Elder Xiao, he was scared by Elder Xiao's analysis, but still couldn't change his decision, he lowered his eyes and raised them again to look at Elder Xiao, "I won't leave, if you don't want to help each other, there is no need to force it at all."
"My mom and dad can still visit me if they like me, but I will never leave Sui Yan and Sea City."
Ting Meng knows that his decision seems even selfish to outsiders, but he just doesn't want to. He would rather he and Sui Yan work harder than to help unwillingly.
It can be said that the words of Elder Xiao, will be Ting Meng to Xiao's good feeling only easily those, all again wears clean.
Elder Xiao's beard cocked again, he looked at Ting Meng, it seems that at this moment, he just see clearly what he looks like, what temperament like, look simple, but in fact, not at all easy to fool.
"You mean, if Xiao doesn't help Sui Yan , you won't recognize your ancestors?"
Ting Meng and Mr. Xiao are not sure how much of a generation gap there is between them, and Ting Meng is a little confused by his words, "Why is leaving Sui Yan and going to North City considered recognition? I called my mom and dad, but that doesn't count?"
Ting Meng more or less felt some sadness again, he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ning who was carrying fruit over, those regrets suddenly dispersed again, probably his life was originally no parental destiny, since there is no, then no need to force it.
"I got it."
Ting Meng said this, pursed his lips, and did not intend to open his mouth to say anything to Elder Xiao.
However, Master Xiao does not know what Ting Meng knows, he said this, naturally, there is a matter of fact, in his opinion, Ting Meng back to North City or not, there is a big difference.
Ting Meng back to North City, when the situation is not as optimistic as expected, Xiao to get out, or very easy, otherwise Huimin Xiao and Zhou Ning's nature, is certainly to protect Ting Meng and Sui Yan in the end.
He said this because he could see that Ting Meng had deep feelings for Sui Yan, but the deeper it was, the more he should be able to sacrifice for Sui Yan, how could he refuse to return to North City for him, Master Xiao really couldn't figure it out.
It's not easy for them to catch a chance to talk like this. Zhou Ning came over with fruit, Master Xiao didn't say anything and went on watching TV.
But Ting Meng did not have that tacit understanding, and when Zhou Ning sat down to raise his hand to touch Ting Meng's hair, he shied away.
He not only avoided it, he stood up, pursed his lips, and he walked toward Sui Yan.
"What's wrong with Nuo Nuo?" Zhou Ning was lost and depressed again, she looked at Elder Xiao, less pensive, and her face was not good, "Dad, what did you and Zinuo say?"
Zhou Ning's voice was not small, and she stood up with a face of hidden anger, Sui Yan and Huimin Xiao, who were talking at the door, looked over, but Sui Yan then looked at Ting Meng, who walked towards him and took Ting Meng's hand, which was unconsciously clenched into a fist.
Sui Yan nods gently to Huimin Xiao, then he leads Ting Meng out of the living room and they go to the grass to talk.
But in fact, they walked a long way, Ting Meng did not say anything, Sui Yan still patiently wait, until Ting Meng softly shouted a breath, then they stopped walking.
Ting Meng raised his eyes to look at Sui Yan, then reached out to embrace her, " Sui Yan, I'm sorry, I refused grandpa."
"He said he wanted me to go back to North City with him and identify my ancestors before he would help you, and I refused."
He is willing to do anything for Sui Yan, to that there is a premise, is Sui Yan also willing to let him do, with this in exchange for Xiao's help, Sui Yan also will not be willing, this Ting Meng even without asking Sui Yan, he also knows.
It's not just Sui Yan who can't let him go, but Sui Yan's own pride that he wouldn't want that.
Sui Yan's face did not look surprised at his words, he gently rubbed the back of Ting Meng's neck, a few smiles appeared at the corners of his mouth, as if afraid that Ting Meng could not feel it, he lifted Ting Meng's face and kissed him on the lips, "No sorry, I should be unhappy that you did not refuse."
To be precise, Sui Yan is still very happy now because Ting Meng really understands him, this kind of spiritual connection is quite wonderful and rare, he can't feel it in anyone else in his life except Ting Meng.
"Thank you, thank you for believing in me."
Ting Meng has been following Sui Yan for so long that it's not as uncomfortable as it was in the living room, but there is still a sigh of relief in her chest, but now this sigh of relief is dispelled in two words by Sui Yan.
Ting Meng embraced Sui Yan more tightly, "No matter what the situation is, I will not leave you, and you should not drive me away, although I will not leave, but will feel sad, so do not drive."
"Well," Sui Yan was silent for a moment and then answered, knowing what Ting Meng was telling him, that he refused to leave for any reason, no matter the poverty, poverty, or even danger, Ting Meng would never leave.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
Ting Meng's reaction was not at all what he expected, but he was still waiting, waiting for the result of his discussion with Sui Yan.
Half an hour later, Sui Yan and Ting Meng came back, Sui Yan's face didn't change much, but Ting Meng had her head down and didn't look at anyone.
Master Xiao's beard curled, his heart was clear, but there was still some dissatisfaction in his expression, but Sui Yan's words soon denied Master Xiao's self-righteousness.
"Ting Ting will stay in Sea City, by my side. No matter what happens, he will face it together with me."
Sui Yan spoke directly to Elder Xiao, who immediately followed and then said again, "Against Yan, I don't need help."
"Why are you still ......" Huimin Xiao looked at Sui Yan slightly speechlessly, he and Sui Yan were talking about the same thing at the door, he asked Sui Yan about the plan, Sui Yan told him that he did not need help, but He was depressed.
"Grandpa said he wanted to go back to North City to acknowledge his ancestors before he gave help, and I refused, and Sui Yan agreed."
Ting Meng interjected, they don't want Xiao's help, and it doesn't make sense for them to feel like they are still owed a favor.
"Mom and Dad miss me and can still visit me ...... North City , and I won't go."
Ting Meng did not want to be angry with Huimin Xiao and Zhou Ning, but at the moment he was in a different mood, so when he said that, the rustic politeness came back.
Zhou Ning looked at Ting Meng, tears shifting in her eyes again, but Ting Meng only swept her a glance and lowered her head again.
Another moment he raised his head again and said seriously again, "You do not need to feel that you owe me anything, let alone do anything for me on purpose, I said, do not like me, you can not have to force."
"What, how does it become reluctant?"
Zhou Ning sat back down on the sofa with a shake of her body after Ting Meng's words, she looked at Elder Xiao, her upbringing prevented her from snapping at an elder, but she was not willing to let Ting Meng get angry with her just like that.
She looked at Ting Meng with a pleading look and tone, "Mommy doesn't want to leave, stay here with you, can she?"
Ting Meng looked up at Zhou Ning and then at Sui Yan, he nodded, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to talk, I made you sad."
"No, it's mommy's fault, it's mommy's fault."
Zhou Ning came over and took Ting Meng's hand, then stepped aside to stand beside him, and she looked at Huimin Xiao with a rather determined look.
Zhou Ning had a bad feeling that Master Xiao was coming with her to Sea City, and she did. She bit her lip and looked at Sui Yan, who probably expected Master Xiao's reaction earlier than they did.
If the previous Xiao Laozi is surprised, then right now he is shocked, he wants to take away Ting Meng, not subject to others, but now it is the Xiao family's head of the family are left in Sea City.
