The Escort

ly, there is nothing ambiguous between her brother and brother Xiao Min’s actions, but the natural sweetness in the atmosphere and the serious look of brother Xiao Min in her elder brother’s eyes can’t be concealed, even making her face throb from the heat and quickly escaped from the soft and romantic atmosphere.

Soon, all the confusion that Shao Rong had in the past disappeared, and she suddenly became enlightened.
Why did her brother suddenly have a friend with such a big difference in status and age? Why did brother Xiao Min take care of them so much? Why does brother Xiao Min behave in a way that is too considerate, even when he appears to be just a very good friend? Why did the two people look so intimate? And the little and gentle feelings of interaction between the two people she never paid attention to before, immediately became clear: the holding of hands from time to time, the occasional silent glances at each other, the tacit understanding of knowing what the other needs without having to communicate, and the memories that only the two of them knows… all indicate that their relationship goes far beyond that of being friends.

Shao Rong sat on the edge of the bed, somewhat happy for her brother, but somewhat flustered.
After all, in her understanding, such relationships are not totally accepted by the mainstream of society. 

In the evening, Min Yu stayed at Shao Mingwei’s place for dinner.

Because Shao Rong discovered something incredible, she didn’t eat much, only quietly looking at Shao Mingwei and Min Yu, paying attention to their interaction: Shao Mingwei made dishes for Min Yu very easily, and Min Yu tasted the soup in the bowl and knew that Shao Mingwei was accommodating to his and Shao Rong’s preference.
The taste was light, so he silently brought salt from the kitchen and put it on the side of Shao Mingwei’s right hand.
Shao Mingwei didn’t even look at it and just took the bottle of salt, sprinkling some into the soup bowl.

They didn’t talk much, and they didn’t have any particularly intimate actions.
Everything was the same as when they ate together many times before, but Shao Rong inexplicably felt that she was very bright, as if she shouldn’t be at the dining table.
After the meal, she was completely sure that her brother and Xiao Min were lovers.

Seeing that Shao Rong was seemingly eating without appetite, Min Yu said with concern, “Does Rong Rong feel uncomfortable? Why did you eat so little today?” 

Shao Rong quickly put on a smile, shook her head, and said, “I’m not feeling uncomfortable.
I ate too much at noon and had no appetite.
”

Shao Mingwei on the side said with a blank face, “I told you that you can’t eat more leek pies, and now you’re full, you’re not listening.
It’s better to eat less at night, otherwise, you’ll ask me for digestive tablets again.
”

Shao Rong stuck out his tongue at him and didn’t speak, then showed Min Yu a silent, crying face.

The corners of Min Yu’s mouth pointed upwards as he watched her play tricks.
The bright lights made him gentle and elegant, with a picturesque appearance.
Shao Rong thought to herself: Brother Xiao Min is so pretty, ah… 

Not long after eating, Min Yu was ready to leave.
If it were in the past, Shao Rong would have asked him to stay, but she just discovered Xiao Min and her brother’s relationship.
If he stayed, he would sleep in the same room with her brother.
She didn’t have the face to ask him to stay, so she only looked at him.

Shao Mingwei said, “How about you stay the night here?”

Min Yu smiled and said, “I can’t.
I’ve been staying in the ancestral house recently.
I don’t usually go back often.
I will take advantage of the Chinese New Year to spend more time with the old lady.
”

Shao Mingwei nodded and understood.
“It’s better to spend more time with the elderlies.
” 

Shao Rong was about to get up and send Min Yu off with Shao Mingwei but Min Yu saw her movement in the corner of his eyes and said to her, “It’s okay, Rong Rong, you don’t need to send me off, you can watch TV.”

Shao Rong’s eyes shifted.
Stroking her head, she obediently waved goodbye to him.
“Goodbye, brother Xiao Min.
Be careful on the road.
”

“Goodbye.”

Min Yu opened the anti-theft door, turned around, and whispered to Shao Mingwei, “We probably won’t have any time to meet each other before the end of the year or after it.” 

Shao Mingwei lowered his head to look at him.
“It’s alright.
I know you’re busy.”

Min Yu glanced at him and said, “Then let’s call each other?”

“En.” Shao Mingwei looked at the living room where there was no movement except for the TV.
He held the door frame with his hand and the door handle with the other.
He slightly leaned forward outside the door and lightly kissed Min Yu’s forehead.
“Go back and be careful on the road.
Tell me when you get home.”
