Chapter 465: Was All About Family
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Fengmian looked at the man who had appeared behind the door.
He was elegant and noble, languid and laid-back, with an air of nobility deep in his bones.
He had seen many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, but compared to this man in front of him, they all paled in comparison.
He frowned slightly and looked at the house number again.
That’s right, this was indeed his sister’s house.
There were also a few old smashed marks on the door. He could not have remembered wrongly.
“Who are you?”
He did not answer Lu Huaiyu’s question but asked one instead. His voice was clean and clear, but there was a hint of questioning in it.
This man did not fit in here. He should be the one who was asking this question.
Lu Huaiyu narrowed his phoenix-like eyes when he heard this.
This tone...
He curled his thin lips slightly and raised his voice slightly.
“Ah Li, someone is looking for you.”
Everyone could hear the intimacy in his words.
Lin Fengmian frowned even more, but he did not bother too much about it when he heard the familiar footsteps coming from inside the door.
He directed his eyes elsewhere to look over and he saw a tall and slender figure walking over.
It was that beautiful and clean face that he had missed for a long time.
Ning Li arrived at the door. When she saw Lin Fengmian, the corners of her lips curled up.
It had been... many years since she had seen him.
He was especially obedient, beautiful, and lively.
She gently exhaled and suppressed the surging waves in her heart. She called out to him with a smile.
“Mian.”
Lin Fengmian’s slightly furrowed brows relaxed the moment he saw her.
Hearing this, he unconsciously stood up straight. His beautiful eyes curved as he obediently called out, “Sister.”
Lu Huaiyu raised the tip of his brows slightly.
Ning Li waved at Lin Fengmian.
“What are you waiting for? Come in first.”
Although Lin Fengmian was fully prepared and this place was very remote, the paparazzi were very powerful, so it was better to be cautious.
Lin Fengmian lightly acknowledged her with a “Hmm” and took a step in. He didn’t look askance as he brushed past Lu Huaiyu who was standing at the side of the door.
He followed Ning Li in. He was clearly more than 1.8 meters tall and already much taller than Ning Li. However, the way he followed behind Ning Li was obedient and docile.
He followed Ning Li at a distance of one and a half steps that was neither too far nor too close.
Lu Huaiyu’s thin lips curled up as he closed the door.
Click.
In the other room, Cheng Xiyue also saw Lin Fengmian walk in and couldn’t help but be stunned.
Subconsciously, he glanced at Lu Huaiyu and signaled with his eyes.
–Who is this? Why does it seem like his relationship with Ning Li’s sister is so unusual?
Lu Huaiyu walked behind, one hand in his pocket but did not say anything.
Ning Li stood still and turned her head to look at Lin Fengmian.
“Mian, you can take off your mask now.”
Lin Fengmian nodded and took off his mask.
It was an extremely exquisite and beautiful face.
Ning Li blinked.
During this period of time, she had seen many photos and videos of Lin Fengmian on the Internet, but it was different from seeing the person with her own eyes.
She narrowed her eyes.
“Mian, you’ve grown a lot taller.”
Before this, Lin Fengmian had gone abroad for a year, and they had never met since then.
Adding to that the few months after he had returned, it had been even longer.
Seventeen or eighteen years old, it was precisely the time for a youth to grow at least a head taller.
Lin Fengmian’s bright red lips pursed into a smile.
“Is that so?”
“Let me introduce you. This is Cheng Xiyue. And this–”
Lin Fengmian’s gaze followed Ning Li and fell on the young man who had just opened the door.
Following that, she heard her say:
“Lu Huaiyu.”
“Second Brother, Brother Xiyue, this is Lin Fengmian.”
From the moment Lin Fengmian had come in and taken off her mask, Cheng Xiyue had felt that this face was somewhat familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen it before.
That is, until now, when he heard Ning Li say this name, he suddenly felt blessed.
“Lin Fengmian?”
He quickly took his phone and tapped on it a few times.
Soon, a photo appeared.
He looked at the screen a few times and finally confirmed,?“Is... this you?”
He was not very interested in the entertainment industry, but recently, the name Lin Fengmian had been extremely popular.
He had just debuted a few months ago and was already unstoppable.
He had not expected to actually meet him here!
“Little Sister Ning Li, you guys–”
Cheng Xiyue’s expression could not hide his shock.
How did they know each other?
Moreover, what had Lin Fengmian called little sister Ning Li earlier?
Sister?
Wasn’t she the only child between Ning Haizhou and Su Yuan?!
Although Lin Fengmian did not know Cheng Xiyue, nor did he know how this person was able to sit at the dining table in Ning Li’s house, he naturally had to greet him since they had been introduced.
“Mr. Cheng.”
He nodded at Cheng Xiyue, and then immediately looked at Lu Huaiyu, pausing for a moment.
“Mr. Lu.”
The corners of Lu Huaihe’s lips held a smile, and it was rare for him to take the initiative to stretch out his hand.
“There’s no need to be so polite. I’m Ah Li’s boyfriend. Since you called her sister, then–
“We’re all family, so just call her casually.”
As his voice fell, the room fell into a short period of dead silence.
Ning Li’s eyelids twitched.
Although she and Lu Huaiyu were now together, this sentence of ‘family’ was really...
Cheng Xiyue clicked his tongue in his heart and consciously took a step back.
It was so f*cking cold this summer.
Lin Fengmian reached out and shook his hand, his tone calm.
“Mr. Lu, you sure do like to joke. My sister... is not yet of legal age for marriage.”
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.
“Is that so? I was the one who accompanied her on her eighteenth birthday last month.”
Lin Fengmian’s breathing was silent for a moment.
Then, both of their hands finally loosened.
Lin Fengmian retracted his hands and tucked them into his sleeves, her fingers slightly curled up.
He felt numb.
Ning Li said, “Mian, would you like to rest first?”
Lin Fengmian came back to his senses and shook his head gently.
“Don’t worry, Sister. I’m not tired. Let’s go now.”
Ning Li guessed that he would give this answer, so she nodded.
“Okay.”
After Ning Li said that, she took the backpack from the side.
Lu Huaiyu took it from her.
Everything was smooth and natural, as if they had done it countless times.
“Think carefully. Is there anything else you want to bring?” Lu Huaiyu asked gently.
“No.” Ning Li smiled. “Let’s go.”
...
The small group got into Cheng Xiyue’s car together.
Lu Huaiyu helped Ning Li open the car door, and followed behind.
Cheng Xiyue went around the front of the car and got into the main driver’s seat. Seeing Lin Fengmian standing there, he smiled and said, “Don’t worry, there’s a film on the car window that makes it one-way. You don’t have to worry about being photographed.”
Ning Li raised her eyes to look at Lin Fengmian.
“Ah Mian?”
Lin Fengmian got into the passenger seat.
Cheng Xiyue started the car.
...
The atmosphere in the car was somewhat delicate.
Cheng Xiyue coughed and took the initiative to break the silence.
“Little Sister Ning Li, I didn’t hear you mention this before. You actually have such connections? You two...?How do you know each other?”
Ning Li explained,?“We used to be neighbors.”
Cheng Xiyue was surprised.
He really had not expected this.
All he knew was that Lin Fengmian had seemed to be a trainee from abroad who had debuted domestically. He had not expected his hometown to also be in Lincheng, and he that had actually been neighbors with younger sister Ning Li?
No wonder...
“Elder Sister.”
Lin Fengmian looked into the rearview mirror and saw that the two people at the back were very close to each other.
“I’m going to sleep for a while. Can you call me later?”
