  Mu Xingchen held Meng Jun's hand tightly, thinking a lot. Until Lin Tao brought in the meal and gently pushed open the door of the ward, coming to his back, he didn't even notice.

  Lin Tao stood silently behind Mu Xingchen for a long time, and the warm and peaceful scene with Meng Jun made his heart tremble slightly. The Mu Xingchen in his memory had never shown such a gentle and soft side before. When he was young, he was always so clever and capable, wise and rational. He had witnessed many times how he and several of his cousins had openly and secretly struggled with each other. No matter how difficult or dangerous it was, he could always respond calmly and often emerged victorious in the end.

  No matter what happened, Mu Xingchen could always face it calmly. He never showed his emotions on his face, nor did he ever let sorrow get the better of him. Sometimes, this made him feel that Mu Xingchen was a genius, an extraordinary talent. It made him love and admire him deeply in his heart, while at the same time, he couldn't help but deeply respect him. It was precisely because of this admiration that he followed him even more devotedly.

  However, since Meng Jun's appearance, Mu Xingchen has changed and become less rational. Sometimes he even goes crazy. Take today for example, after receiving the news, he drove wildly on the road, running through two or three red lights in a row. If it wasn't for him hastily calling Zhang Chengyang and others to rush over afterwards, who knows what kind of trouble would have occurred.

  "Stars, stars, you are so worrisome! You know your Dream King makes you worry, and aren't you the same? Lin Tao thought to himself, his heart gradually calming down. It's rare to see Stars being so considerate of a girl, it's not easy for people to encounter true love in this life. Since he was lucky enough to meet her, shouldn't he, as the older brother, wholeheartedly bless them? Why is his heart still twisting and turning?"

  Forget it, actually from the day I agreed with Old Man Mu, I had already prepared myself to take care of Mu Xingchen for a lifetime, which naturally includes making sacrifices in terms of emotions. Besides, what's there to say about emotions between me and Zhuo Mengjun? We only have a nodding acquaintance at best, if she were to make a choice between me and Mu Xingchen, wouldn't Mu Xingchen's superiority be obvious? Not to mention, with the current task of helping her father recover from his illness, I couldn't bear the responsibility.

  "Sixth Junior, you must be hungry too? Eat something!" Lin Tao walked relaxedly to Mu Xingchen's back and whispered. At this time, a kind of calmness of an adult rose in his heart.

  "Oh, Tao Ge, when did you arrive?" Mu Xingchen unconsciously let go of Meng Jun's hand and said with a hint of embarrassment.

  "I just came in and saw you looking so infatuated, so I didn't disturb you." Lin Tao said with a faint smile, implying something else.

  "Oh, what are you talking about? Don't you understand me yet? It was just a momentary whim." Mu Xingchen became even more embarrassed, facing this brother who had grown up playing with him since childhood, his own childish side, which was indeed quite embarrassing to let him see.

  "Xīng chén, I think this Zhuō Mèng Jūn is a very good girl, worthy of your genuine affection. I hope you're not just playing around, I think...” Lín Tāo said up to here, suddenly pausing, he didn't know how to continue, feeling that his words were completely illogical, but he really wanted to say something more, the four words "yī shí xīng qǐ" (one moment of excitement) from Mù Xīng Chén earlier had touched a nerve. Was Xīng Chén also like those spoiled rich kids who toy with girls? If so, then he wouldn't let go, but instead would snatch Mèng Jūn away from his hands.

  "What's wrong? What do you want to say?" Mu Xingchen was completely baffled by Lin Tao's meaning. From the first time he contacted Meng Jun, he had always been obstructing him. Why was this? It made him think endlessly.

  "What... nothing?" How should he say it, could he just bluntly tell Xing Chen that he also likes Meng Jun? No, no, that's absolutely not possible, what kind of person would he become if he did that?

  "Could you have known Meng Jun before?" Mu Xingchen looked at Lin Tao, then glanced at Meng Jun, thinking that this was also unlikely. The more cunning a person is, the easier it is to make low-level mistakes. Mu Xingchen thought of many possibilities, but didn't think that Lin Tao was also a hot-blooded man, and his heart would not be moved by Meng Jun's departure?

  "I just think that Zhuo Mengjun is a pitiful girl, if you like her, you should treat her sincerely, don't be like those rich kids who are infatuated with someone one day and forget them the next." Lin Tao said, then shifted his gaze away, he didn't want Mu Xingchen to read his true thoughts from his eyes. Since this so-called romance had never started in the first place, let him bury this feeling deep within himself. Let him treat it as a jar of aged wine, savoring it alone when no one is around.
