That night, after Song Yan helped Xia Lin release once, he didn't do anything unnecessary. He just hugged him in his arms and fell asleep contentedly.

However, Xia Lin was suffering. On one hand, his body is uncomfortable and it is very difficult to turn around. On the other hand, he is always on guard against Song Yeon subconsciously.

He didn't sleep deeply. Even if he fell asleep, he was full of chaotic dreams, and he woke up from time to time.

So when Xia Lin got up the next day, his head was dizzy.

But Song Yan was no longer on the bed. He looked around the room and didn't see Song Yan.

Finally, he found a note left by Song Yan on the bedside table: "I'm going to work. The project that the old man gave me must be finished as soon as possible. Seeing that you are sleeping well, I didn't wake you up. But I secretly kissed your forehead. I'll never get tired of you, sleeping beauty ∧_∧"

Xia Lin was firmly disgusted by the last sentence.

He didn't know if Song Yan was so numb every day when he was with Yu Luotong in his previous life but during the years when he was with him, he had never heard Song Yan say anything to him.

At that time, Song Yan worked hard in a small company. For a little sales performance, he would often leave early and return late. When he got up in the morning, he would leave. He had never done anything like leaving a note of affection.

Xia Lin shook his head, threw the emotion out of his head, then crumpled the note and threw it into the wastebasket.

After washing, he opened the door, went downstairs, and saw Xia Liang drinking morning tea by the window. Mrs. Xia's watching TV on the sofa, and Uncle Teng and Zhou Shuo are washing the car in the yard. Father Xia is not around.

"Where's Dad?" Xia Lin asked.

The old lady was watching a drama. She stared at the TV screen in a daze. She didn't even notice Xia Lin came downstairs.

Instead, Xia Liang replied, "Dad went to the company early in the morning and went out with Song Yan."

As he said that, he lifted his chin in the direction of the kitchen: "Go for breakfast, you got up so late."

Xia Lin thought to himself, can this be blamed on me? Who told you to let in a scourge last night?

He went to sit down at the dining table, scooped himself a spoonful of porridge, and ate it without appetite.

The light above his head dimmed. He looked up and found that Xia Liang walked to him at some point, pulled the chair away, and sat down.

"?"

Xia Lin looked at Xia Liang with a confused look.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Xia Liang asked pointedly. Xia Lin's face slowly burned and he thought, what does Xia Liang know.

He turned his head and glanced in the living room subconsciously. The TV's voice was adjusted so loudly that it completely covered their conversation in the living room.

On the screen, an actress was crying with tears in her eyes. The old lady stared at the TV for a moment. At the same time, she slowly stretched out her hand and pulled a tissue, and wiped the corner of her eyes sadly.

"Grandma doesn't know anything," Xia Liang knew what Xia Lin was worried about. "Daddy didn't know either. As for me, I almost know everything I should know."

As for Zhou Shuo, in fact, he didn't know much about this matter. Even if Xia Liang pried Zhou Shuo's mouth cleanly, it is still not as good as the facts. Thinking of this, he lightly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Zhou Shuo told you, right? Yes, that's what he knows."

"It wasn't Zhou Shuo who took the initiative. I guessed it first."

Xia Liang was afraid that Xia Lin would complain against Zhou Shuo so he explained a little bit, "I'm not here to teach you something. I just want to figure it out. What is in your heart now? I know we are not very close but we are a family. We still have to sit down and discuss things together. Only when we reach an agreement can we face each other together in order to jointly face the problem that needs to be solved next. "

Xia Lin smiled bitterly: "Brother, if I said I don't want to get married in the future, and I don't want to have children with a woman, would you agree?"

"In my opinion, it's not a big problem," Xia Liang seemed to have expected him to say this a long time ago.

"The Xia family has two children. If you don't want to get married, you can never get married. If you don't want to have children, you can take one from me to be with you until you're old."

Xia Lin looked at Xia Liang in surprise. He didn't expect that he had even considered all these issues.

The relationship between Xia Lin and Xia Liang in the previous life was more indifferent than in this life, especially after Yu Luotong's death. Xia Lin stayed with Song Yan all day and night. Once the relationship with Song Yan was confirmed, he couldn't wait to run home and come out of the closet.

It was just a year since Song Yan came out and fell out with his family. The Xia family had also heard about Song Yan's affairs and had long been prejudiced against Song Yan's unfilial behavior. Now, Father Xia sees his son also embarking on after Song Yan's road. He almost died out of anger and heart disease. The old lady Xia was not young. Although she did not swear like Xia's father, she was depressed.

Xia Liang was the last one in the family to know about it. At that time, he was on a business trip. When he returned home, Xia Lin had completely moved out of the house, and the brothers hadn't even seen each other.

In this life, Xia Lin has been hesitant to come out to his family because of the shadow brought about by the previous life.

Months ago, he was still thinking that if he could never find a lover with who he could spend his life together, he would not come out to his family.

If he needs to get married or something, he could delay it, and he'd find a lesbian to discuss this matter. In the form of marriage, the two would move out to live alone and then adopt a child. On the surface, everyone will see them as a respectful family. They would have their own free space in private, so there is nothing wrong with it.

But Song Yan's appearance disrupted all his plans.

Now he doesn't know how to go in the future. Instead, Xia Liang helped him figure out the solution to his biggest problem in just a short night.

Xia Lin stared at Xia Liang in a daze and choked out, "Brother."

Xia Liang waved his hand and said: "Don't look at me with such eyes. I just want to minimize the harm to the family as much as possible before the conflict erupts."

He paused and continued: "What I am most worried about right now is the matter between you and Song Yan. I can see that Song Yan is pursuing you but what is your attitude toward him? Will you accept him or not?"
