The big star has a prince syndrome

Chapter 142 Strange Dream

Ye Youcheng wanted to meet Xu Qingran, whom he had only known on the Internet, and Ye Yan did not refuse.

He called Xu Qingran that night. When he heard that his father-in-law wanted to see him, the man who had been unhappy because of being away from home for a week finally felt a little happy.

"It seems that I have a good reputation in front of your father. Did you praise me?"

When he was not working, Xu Qingran automatically switched back to the state of that lively big boy. The curious and expectant tone in his voice sounded particularly pleasant when it reached Ye Yan's ears through the phone.

"Why don't you ask him what his attitude is? Even if I praise you to bits, you're still a man. Are you missing the point?"

Ye Yan was speechless, thinking, what kind of train of thought is this? Even at this time, he's still concerned about his status. He's really just a love-brained person...

Although he thought so, the arc of his mouth that unconsciously raised up was his true emotion at the moment.

Xu Qingran was at home tonight. He was bored, so he went to his own gym to stretch his muscles.

He was sitting on the butterfly plane talking to Ye Yan, and didn't notice that Lin Anyi had come in. Seeing him talking and laughing with the phone, anger gradually appeared in his eyes.

"I'm not mistaken. In my heart, your attitude towards me is the most important thing. I don't care what those irrelevant people think of me. Even if they object, it won't affect our relationship, right?"

Xu Qingran learned from Song Zhen about Ye Yan's past when she was hurt by her family, so he thought it was not an exaggeration to call Ye Youcheng an irrelevant person.

He didn't care about Ye Youcheng's attitude towards him, because he didn't take that irresponsible man seriously at all.

But his words, which seemed to be speaking up for Ye Yan, sounded particularly uncomfortable to Ye Yan, and the curve that had been faintly visible on his face suddenly disappeared.

"He already knows he was wrong. I don't want to dwell on the past, and you shouldn't bear grudges against him for me. In fact, I quite enjoy having him back in my life. I don't know why. I clearly haven't forgiven him, but when I hear they're coming, I still feel inexplicably happy. Maybe my obsession with family has become a little obsessive..."

Unlike what she did to Zhou Yun, when talking about Ye Youcheng, Ye Yan did not blame Xu Qingran for being rude and daring to ignore his father.

Because he knew that Xu Qingran didn't mean it. All Xu Qingran knew about Ye Youcheng was a late-stage male chauvinist who made no contribution to the family.

Ye Youcheng told Song Zhen everything about his scumbag father, word for word, and Xu Qingran didn't misunderstand at all.

Maybe it was due to blood relationship. Now Ye Youcheng realized that he was wrong, his personality softened and he began to care about him. He was confused. He should have been dismissive, but now not only did he not, but he unexpectedly felt that something he had been expecting was finally beginning to favor him and give him a sense of belonging.

He couldn't explain why he was like this, but Xu Qingran could tell that Ye Yan was born afraid of loneliness. He already had few friends and couldn't afford to be without family.

"You've been alone for too long. You'll definitely feel happy if someone cares about you. I'm sorry, I didn't know you cared about them so much. I won't say that again. I'll be back the day after tomorrow, and I have to prepare some gifts or something. Go to bed early. See you the day after tomorrow. Good night..."

Xu Qingran said good night in a gentle voice. After hanging up the phone, he still couldn't hide the satisfaction of being introduced to Ye Yan's family. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he met Lin Anyi's cold and reproachful gaze, and his smile froze on his face instantly.

"Mom, isn't it a bad idea for you to eavesdrop on my phone conversation?"

Xu Qingran complained that he was a little tired after working out for an hour, and he didn't want to argue with Lin Anyi about his relationship problems, so he rubbed his hair and prepared to go back to his room. The few steps he took as he walked around Lin Anyi perfectly showed the temperament of a rebellious son.

"I'll say it again, you and Ye Yan, you can have fun together, and I won't stop you if you want to keep her as your lover. But if you dare to be serious with me, the reputation of the Xu family will be a small matter, but if it gets out of hand and Grandpa gets angry, then you won't have any room for regrets."

When they passed by each other, Lin Anyi gave him a final warning, which was also advice from his biological mother, but to Xu Qingran it was just a way of threatening him.

But we have to admit that anyone with a conscience cannot withstand this kind of moral kidnapping, not to mention that Xu Qingran is very filial to his grandfather and certainly would not want to see his grandfather's health affected because of him.

So he really didn't want to hear such "threats" because it was something that was very likely to happen. He could disregard everything except the life of his grandfather who was in poor health.

Feeling annoyed, Xu Qingran gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

"You can rest assured. I won't let that happen. I'll go back to see Grandpa tomorrow. Are you satisfied?"

Xu Qingran gave a deliberate smile, then turned around and left the gym without waiting for Lin Anyi's response.

What is he afraid of? After all, he and Ye Yan are both men, and Ye Yan is a public figure, so it is not impossible for them to have a secret relationship for a lifetime. Xu Qingran thought, as long as his grandfather doesn't say things like "I want to see you get married and have children" in front of him, it will be fine.

Thinking of this possibility, Xu Qingran felt that he should think about what excuse to use to explain to his grandfather before going to bed that he would not get married for the time being, so as to be prepared.

It was a good thing that he was finally going to meet his parents, and Ye Yan was very happy. However, he hadn't suffered from insomnia for a long time, so he couldn't sleep again at night for some unknown reason.

After finally falling into a light sleep, he had another dream. He dreamed that he was still in the home of his childhood.

In the dream, Ye Youcheng touched his hair with reluctance in his eyes. His appearance and expression were not like the Ye Youcheng of the past, but more like the current one.

Later, Ye Youcheng walked to the door without looking back, opened it and walked out. He stood at the door, waved goodbye to him, and then turned and left.

He hurriedly followed him out, but outside the door was not the original public corridor, but a country road in the evening. The sky was gray and Ye Youcheng's lonely back went into the mountains.

"Dad? Where are you going?" In his dream, he looked at Ye Youcheng's back and shouted, but got no response, only a figure that gradually walked away until it disappeared.

It wasn't a nightmare, so he woke up calmly, only to see darkness.

He unconsciously recalled the dream he had just had. He had never dreamed of Ye Youcheng before, the man who was dispensable in his youth.

Why would I dream about him...Ye Yan rubbed his dizzy head and felt confused.

However, the country road in the dream seemed familiar. It should be the hometown of his grandparents whom he visited when he was a child. He hadn't been to that place for 20 years and had clearly forgotten it long ago. How could it be so clear in the dream? It was really amazing.

And although it was clearly a dream, the figure of Ye Youcheng leaving in the dream made his heart inexplicably tighten after he woke up, as if he would never come back once he left.

In his drowsiness, he seemed to hear some noise. After listening carefully, he confirmed that it came from the living room.

He glanced at his phone and it was two o'clock in the morning.

Is it Dad and Aunt Qiu who need anything? Curious, Ye Yan immediately turned on the light and got up.

In fact, because the house is too big, Ye Yan has to go around a distance to get to the living room from his master bedroom, so even if there is any sound, it cannot reach his ears, but he happened to hear it tonight.

It was Qiu Yuan who was busy in the kitchen. Ye Yan looked at her back, who seemed to be sighing, frowned, and walked over curiously.

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

Perhaps because he was afraid of scaring Qiu Yuan in the middle of the night, Ye Yan deliberately stepped loudly when he walked over, and only started asking after reminding her that someone was coming.

Qiu Yuan turned around in response, her face clearly showing some panic.

"Nothing, your dad said he was a little hungry, I'll make him a glass of milk, you go back to sleep, I'll be right there."

Qiu Yuan smiled, then turned around and put the milk powder into the cup of hot water. After stirring it, she stood up and prepared to go back to her room.

He really knows how to enjoy himself, Ye Yan thought, but Aunt Qiu's expression was obviously unhappy. Did she feel wronged to serve my father like this?

Ye Yan thought of this possibility, so she took two steps forward and politely said to Qiu Yuan, "Auntie, there are a lot of food in the refrigerator. You can take some back to your room so you don't have to get up in the middle of the night."

"It's okay. Drinking some hot milk will help you sleep. Go back and rest soon."

Qiu Yuan smiled gently and then left with the milk.

Ye Yan was puzzled. He remembered that Ye Youcheng had no habit of eating in the middle of the night before. He couldn't help but think of his expression as if he was chewing wax during dinner.

Obviously, the dish was made by his partner, there was no way he wouldn't like it.

So he either didn't like to eat or couldn't eat. Ye Yan suddenly thought of something and silently followed him towards the guest room.
