Chapter 7: You...

 

After the entire Ou family's servants had met him, Ou LingYi said he was exhausted as an excuse and wanted to return to his room to rest.

Taken by the overly enthusiastic Ou XingZhen to the second floor, Ou LingYi lifted his eyebrow in another wave of suspicison once he saw the spacious and bright bedroom with exquisite furnishings. This wasn't the place where I lived in my past life? Did they make a mistake?

When the Ou LingYi in his last life knew that he had a rich father and didn't have to be a prostitute anymore, he was exhilarated. Along the way, he tried to please his second uncle who took him home. And this kind of lowly attitude and dirty life is exactly what Ou XingZhen dislikes most.

Therefore, the simple act of bringing him home was nearly intolerable by Ou XingZhen. Why should Ou LingYi receive good treatment? Finally, he ordered the housekeeper to arrange a servant's room in the corner of the first floor.

Living a new life now, the beautiful, strong, indifferent, and intelligent Ou LingYi stole Ou XingZhen's heart in one moment. In addition, his extraordinary intelligence and knowledge made it even more difficult for Ou XingZhen to hate him.

Seeing his nephew standing at the door quietly observing the furnishing in the room, yet he didn't enter, made Ou XingZhen furrowed his eyebrows in worry. "Is Xiao-Yi dissatisfied? We didn't have much time, so we could only arrange it like this. If something's not good, bear with it for now. Second uncle will tell someone to change it for your tomorrow."

Hearing Ou XingZhen's voice, he stopped daydreaming, and Ou LingYi dismissed him by waving his hand. "No, leave it like this." In this life, he has no attachment to decorations. Simplicity is good, luxury is the same. He had nothing to do with them. In this family, he was only a passer-by, anyway.

Ou LingYi's expression was indifferent. Even with how carefully Ou XingZhen observes, it is difficult to know his true thoughts about the room. So, he could only give up helplessly.

How can this child be so indifferent at such a young age? Not a bit of vigor! Probably suffered a lot in the red light district?

Knowing his nephew's miserable life in the red light district, Ou XingZhen's heart ignited into flames with waves of pain. I should have found him earlier and let him grow up happily by my side, but it's not too late to come back now.

Looking at the one meter sixty-eight, slim and petite man, not even reaching his chest, Ou XingZhen was filled with deep satisfaction, and his face wore with a dreamy smile.

Already used to Ou XingZhen'e randomly silly expressions, Ou LingYi was too lazy to care and shuts the door.

Still immersed in the imagination of a happy life with his little nephew, Ou XingZhen was caught off guard by the door. It hit into his nose, and he let out a cry.

Why does Xiao-Yi close the door without saying a word? He thought with embarrassment. Ou Xing Zhen touched his red, hurt nose as he walked back to his room to call his brother.

He was completely oblivious to his own abnormal emotions. If someone treated him like this, even if it's Ou TianBao, his favorite older brother, he will severely reprimand him. When it came to Ou LingYi, he couldn't even get angry.

It could only be said that the beauty is much loved, especially when the beauty was someone who has not yet grown up and is pure and clever.

After closing the door, Ou LingYi relaxed and threw himself into the middle of the room where the the soft and comfortable king size bed lied. He closed his eyes and recalled today's events. He compared his mental pictures with those of his previous life and his first return to Ou's home.

Compared with his old memories, Ou LingYi frowns. This is only the first day back to the Ou family. Many people, many things have changed. I wonder if LingShuang-jie will be different than the one in my past life? But no matter how she changes, the idea of protecting her will never change!

Clenching his fists, Ou LingYi swears silently that this time, he will protect Ou LingShuang's happiness for eternity.

While Ou LingYi was confused about the grand welcome he received when he returned to the Ou family, on this end, Ou XingZhen was also worried as he waited for his older brother to pick up the phone.

He could not bear to hurt suxh a lovely and clever child. He could only hope to persuade his brother to change his mind.

"Hello? Has the matter been settled? " The phone was connected and a deep, dragging voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, big brother. Xiao-Yi has been brought back." When his elder brother's voice rang out, Ou Xing calmed himself and carefully chose his words.

"小逸？"欧邢天接通电话，对自己弟弟嘴里的小逸很疑惑。

"Xiao-Yi?" Ou XingTian 接通电话. He was confused about Xiao-Yi in his brother's had just said.

"小逸就是欧凌逸，你流落在外的小儿子，我的小侄子。我刚刚把他带回来了。"

"Xiao-Yi is Ou LingYi, your son who's been wandering, my little nephew. I just brought him back."

"哦，是他！"冷漠的应一声，欧邢天移步到书桌前，拿起桌上的传真看了一眼："你发的传真我看见了。他身体很健康，血型也一样，配型应该会成功，我很满意。"

"Oh, it's him!" Ou XingTian indifferently answered. He moved to his desk and took a look at the fax on the desk: "I saw the fax you sent. He's in good health, and his blood type is the same. The match should be successful; I'm satisfied."

"大哥，我要跟你说的不是这个！那个孩子你没看见。他跟别人不同，特招人疼！我很喜欢他。咱们能不能放弃那个计划？"本打算开口将欧凌逸的研究说出来，但是考虑到专家组还没有讨论，审核过，怕大哥期望太大失望越大，欧邢瑱咬咬牙，还是决定等研发成功以后再跟他说。反正离欧天宝下次手术的期限还有好几年，来得及。

"Big brother, this isn't what I wanted to tell you! You haven't see that kid. He is different from others. He attracts others! I like him very much. Can we give up that plan? " He was about to talk about Ou LingYi's research, but considering that the expert group has not discussed or reviewed it, it'll make his older brother even more disappointed if the report wasn't plausible. Ou XingZhen clenchrd his teeth. He'll wait until the R&D is successful before he tells his brother. Since there's still many years before Ou TianBao needs his operation, he'll make it.

"你知道你在说什么吗？就为了今天才见面的野种，你竟然要我放弃天宝唯一的存活机会？我告诉你，不可能！不管你如何喜欢他，我的决定都不会更改！你要记住了，在这世上，只有我和天宝才是你的亲人！"皱起线条刚毅的浓眉，欧邢天冷酷的回绝弟弟的请求。

"Do you know what you're talking about? Just for today's son of a bitch, you want me to give up TianBao only chance to survive? I tell you, there is no way! No matter how much you like him, my decision will not change! You must remember, in this world, only TianBao and I are your family." With prominent lines that creased between his thick eyebrows, Ou XingTian coldly refused his younger brother's request.

 

虽然对弟弟的倒戈很气闷，欧邢天不得不承认，他对这个素未谋面的小儿子起了一点好奇之心。什么样的人能让内心同自己一样冷酷的弟弟第一眼就如此维护？看来自己这个小儿子不简单。

Although he was very angry with his brother's defection from the plan, Ou XingTian had to admit he was a little curious about the son he had never met. What kind of person made his younger brother who was as cold as him want to protect him at first sight? It seems that his son wasn't so simple.

"大哥！你连人都没见到就否定了他的存在，你会后悔的！"烦躁的挂断电话，欧邢瑱痛苦的扶额。

"Elder brother! If you end the existence of a person without even seeing him, you will regret it!" Agitatedly hanging up the phone, Ou XingZhen painfully cradled his forehead.

他深知自己大哥心性之冷酷，现在说什么他也是听不进的。欧邢瑱只能放弃与欧邢天在电话里沟通的想法，万事还是等他回来再说吧。自己也该加紧脚步，尽快将小逸的研究提上日程了。

He knew his brother's had a heart of stone. No matter what he said, he wouldn't listen. Ou XingZhen could only give up the idea of communicating with Ou XingTian on the phone. Everything should wait until he comes back. He should speed up his pace too, so he could move Xiao-Yi's research up his agenda.

将未来要走的每一步都在心里过了一遍，欧邢瑱捂住脸，疲惫的躺倒在床上。

He ran every step that he'll take in the future over in his head. Ou XingZhen covered his face, tiredly lying on his bed.

那头被自己弟弟粗暴的挂断电话的欧邢天，对着还嘟嘟作响的手机拧眉沉思。看来要提前回去了，欧邢瑱如此反常，家里指不定会有什么变数。

Ou XingTian, who was roughly hung up by his brother, furrowed his eyebrows and pondered as the ending tone rang. It seems that he'll have to return early; Ou XingZhen was abnormal. Maybe there's some unknown variables causing trouble at home.

﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡

欧凌逸本来打算躺在床上闭目养神，没想到不知不觉就睡过去了。等管家将他叫醒，他才知道晚饭时间到了，欧凌霜和欧天宝已经回来很久了。

Ou LingYi originally intended to lie in bed and relax with closed eyes; he didn't expect to call asleep. When the housekeeper woke him up, he knew it was time for dinner. Ou LingShuang and Ou TianBao had been back for a long time.

满怀期待的走下楼，欧凌逸朝客厅里的沙发看去。只见欧凌霜和欧天宝正一左一右的坐在欧邢瑱身边聊天，客厅里洋溢着阵阵欢笑。

Full of expectations, he walked downstairs and looked at the sofa in the living room. Ou LingShuang and TianBao are sitting beside Ou Xingazhen, chatting with each other. The living room overflows with warmth bursts of laughter.

听见欧凌霜熟悉悦耳的笑声，欧凌逸也跟着会心一笑。这样的感觉真熟悉，令人怀念。

Hearing Ou LingShuang's familiar and sweet laughter, Ou Ling Yi followed with a satifying smile. This feeling is so familiar, so nostalgic.

欧邢瑱一边问着两个孩子在学校的情况，一边不时的朝楼梯看。欧凌逸一出现在楼梯口他就发现了。

As Ou XingZhen asked about school, he casted looks at the stairs ever so often. The second Ou LingYi appeared by the stairs, he was found.

 

看见欧凌逸满眼期待的看向他们，盯住欧凌霜就不转眼珠了，还露出怀念的笑容，不知为何，欧邢瑱一阵恼怒，心里又酸又涩。

Seeing that Ou LingYi looks expectantly towards them, eyes locked onto Ou LingShuang with a nostalgic smile, Ou XingZhen felt a wave of anger for some reason. An astrigent sour runs through his heart.

自己好歹也是第一个带他回家的人啊，不是都说小孩子有雏鸟情节吗？怎么小逸现在明显喜欢欧凌霜多过喜欢自己呢？这样不行！

After all, he was the first person to take him home; don't all say children are like fledgings and stick to the first person they met? Why does Xiao-Yi obviously like Ou LingShuang more than himself? This won't work!

脑子里弯弯绕绕的转了无数圈，却只是分分钟的事情，欧邢瑱果断站起身吸引欧凌逸的注意。

The thought twisted and circled around his head numerous times, 却只是分分钟的事情. Ou XingZhen decisively stands up to catch Ou LingYi's attention.

他满脸堆笑，展开双手拥住还盯着欧凌霜不放的小人儿，掰过他的脑袋笑眯眯的说："小逸一觉竟然睡这么久，大家都等着你开饭呢！来来来，二叔给你介绍，这是你哥哥欧天宝，这是你姐姐欧凌霜。"

With a smile on his face, he stretched out his hands to hold on to the child who was still staring at Ou LingShuang. He turned Ou LingYi's head back to him and said with a smile, "Xiao-Yi, you've slept for so long; we're all waiting for you to have dinner! Come, let second uncle introduce to you. This is your older brother, Ou TianBao, and this is your older sister, Ou LingShuang.

将身后的两人指引给欧凌逸，欧邢瑱特意加重了'姐姐'二字的发音。

He introduces the two people behind him to Ou LingYi. Ou XingZhen purposefully accentuates the title "sister."

接收到欧邢瑱散发的怨气，欧凌逸觉得莫名其妙，却懒得理会。他小心的隐藏起内心的激动，平静的开口："哥哥、姐姐好，我是欧凌逸，以后请多多关照。"

Ou LingYi felt the unreasonable air of anger from Ou XingZhen. It was puzzling, yet he was too lazy to care. Carefully, he hid away the excitement in his heart, calmly saying, "Hello, brother. Hello, sister. I'm Ou LingYi, please take care of me."

"你好小逸，很高兴你能回来！以后有什么困难尽管来找哥哥。"欧天宝俊逸稚嫩的脸庞上浮起一抹温柔的微笑。

"Hello, Xiao-Yi. I'm glad you can come back! If you have any difficulties in the future, please come to your brother. " A genyle smile floats onto Ou TianBao's handsome, youthful face.

欧凌逸讶异的挑眉。虽然欧天宝面上笑着，但是那笑意一点没达到眼底，浑身还散发出一阵阵敌意。

Ou LingYi raises eyebrows in surprise. Although Ou TianBao was smiling, it didn't reach into the depths of his eyes. Furthermore, his body still exuded waves of hostility.

前世的欧凌逸见识少，看人只看表面，哪里会知道原来自己的哥哥第一面就如此讨厌自己。反复的回忆着前世与欧天宝的相处，欧凌逸惊讶的发现，原来自己这个哥哥还真是深藏不露，看来以后还是少与他接触为妙。

In Ou LingYi's former life, he knew very little. He judged people on their outward appearances only. How would he realize that his brother hated him so much? Recalling his past life's interaction with Ou TianBao, Ou LingYi is surprised to find that his brother had some hidden motives. It seems that it'll be better if he interacted with him less in the future.

 

心里已经打算对欧天宝退避三舍，欧凌逸面上却一丝不露，也回了他一个绝美闪亮的微笑，这让欧天宝的眼神又闪了闪，散发的敌意更加强烈。

He had already decided to avoid conflict with Ou TianBao under any circumstance. His face doesn't show any of his inner emotions and returns a beautiful, gleaming smile. Ou TianBao's eyes flashed, hostility billowing even thicker.

一边的欧凌霜却是被欧凌逸纯美的笑容晃花了眼，激动的扑上来，搂着他的肩膀，蹭着他柔嫩的脸颊，一脸的陶醉："啊！没想到我欧凌霜还有一个这么可爱的弟弟，真是太幸福了！小逸别怕，以后姐姐罩你！"

On the side, Ou LingShuang was dazzled by the pure smile of Ou LingYi and excited threw herself onto him. She put her arm around his shoulder and rubbed his soft cheek. With an intoxicated look on her face, she said, "Ah! I never imagine I, Ou LingShuang, would have such a lovely younger brother! I'm so happyn Xiao-Yi, don't be afraid; Sister will always protect you!"

微笑的任欧凌霜搂住自己不停的蹭，欧凌逸内心无比满足：真好，过了这么多年，再见面，你还是那么热情直爽，一点儿也没有改变！

Ou LingShuang continues to nudge against his face playfully, and Ou LingYi feels a fulfillment in his heart. That's great, after so many years, you're still enthusiastic; you haven't changed!

眼红的看着欧凌霜对少年上下其手，而少年不但不阻止，还一脸放任的微笑，欧邢瑱看不下去了，强力扒拉开狗皮膏药一样的欧凌霜，语气阴沉的开口："好了，别闹了！吃饭了，小逸睡了这么久，该饿了！"

Ou XingZhen watched with red eyes. Under Ou LingShuang's gestures, the young man not only doesn't stop him, but also has a carefree. smile. Ou XingZhen couldn't take it anymore and forcibly pulled Ou LingShuang who plastered herself to the other like Gou Pi Gao. In a gloomy tone, he said, "Okay, stop fighting! Let's eat. Xiao-Yi slept for so long, he must be hungry!"

欧凌霜见二叔脸色难看，识趣的放手："啊，看我，差点就忘了。小逸快来，坐我身边。"

Ou LingShuang saw her second uncle's poor complexion, and let go knowing it was a delicate situation. "Ah, look at me. I almost forgot. Xiao-Yi, come sit by me."

欧凌霜抢先奔到饭厅，先下手为强的将欧凌逸拉扯到自己身边的座位坐下。

Ou LingShuang rushed to the dining room, striking first and pulling Ou LingYi to sit down next to her.

欧凌逸被她拉了一个踉跄，一脸无奈，却乖顺的坐下，徒留失了先机的欧邢瑱在他们背后吹胡子瞪眼。

Ou LingYi was pulled by her, staggering helpless. Yet he obediently sat down, leaving Ou XingZhen who was frothing at the mouth with rage after missing the first attack

欧天宝用余光在众人的表情上溜了一圈，挑眉坐到自己惯常坐的位置。他身边就是主座，现在空着。欧邢天还在巴黎，两日后才能回来。

Ou TianBao scanned everyone's expressions once out of the corner of his eyes before raising an eyebrow and sitting down in his usual seat. Next to him was the main seat, currently vacant. Ou XingTian was still in Paris and wouldn't be back until two days later.

不知爸爸对这个新来的弟弟是什么想法？暗地打量着对面容颜如玉，气质宛然的欧凌逸，欧天宝担心的皱起眉头。

What does Dad think of the new brother? Secretly, he examined Ou LingYi, whose countenance and tempermant. was like that of jade.

 

对这个弟弟的出现，他心里满是排斥。但是，见自己一向冷漠的二叔对他那么喜欢，欧凌霜也如此热情，为了维持自己惯常的风度，他不得不表示欢迎。

He was full of rejection with the younger brother's appearance. However, seeing that his always indifferent second uncle liked him so much and Ou LingShuang was so enthusiastic, he had to welcome him in order to maintain his usual demeanor.

管家指挥着仆人将一道道法式料理端上桌，最后一道压轴菜是大厨最拿手的'黄油百里香焗烤大龙虾'。

The housekeeper instructs the servants to bring the French dishes to the table. The last dish is the chef's best "roasted lobster with butter and thyme."

见硕大，烤的黄里透红，泛着诱人光芒的大龙虾被放在餐桌的正中，前世的记忆又浮上欧凌逸的脑海。

See the huge, roasted lobster gleaming with a captivating light as its placed in the center kf the table, the memories of his past life floats back into his mind.

他记得上一世第一次回欧家，晚餐时也是同样的菜式。他从来没有吃过西餐，不了解西餐的礼仪，开动后，刀叉碗碟互相碰撞，叮当作响，惹的满屋子人皱眉鄙夷的看着他。

He remembers the first time he went back to the Ou house in his last life, and the same dish was served at dinner. He had never eaten Western food and didn't understand the etiquette of Western food. After starting, his knife, fork and plate collided with each other, resulting in unpleasant scratches. It made everyone frown and look at him with contempt.

特别是最后吃大龙虾的时候，他直接拿起汤勺敲打龙虾壳，龙虾壳四溅，还落到了欧邢瑱的汤盘里，溅了他一头一脸的汤水。

In particular, when he finally ate the lobster, he directly picked up the spoon and hit the lobster shell, which splattered all over the place. Furthermore, the lobster shell even landed in Ou XingZhen's plate, splashing his face with soup.

欧邢瑱黑面沉沉，甩袖而去。最后眼见着难以收场，还是欧天宝站出来，手把手的教他西餐礼仪，还示范他吃大龙虾的技巧。

Ou XingZhen's face darkened and swung his sleeve. Finally, seeing that it was difficult to come to a good ending, TianBao stood up. He taught him Western food etiquette and demonstrated how to eat a lobster properly.

他记得自己当初差点感动的泪洒当场，后来拼死拼活的日夜研究各国用餐礼仪。现在看来，一切都是欧天宝故意为之，以凸显他的优雅高贵和自己的粗俗不堪吧

He remembers that he was almost moved by tears on the spot and worked hard to study the dining etiquette of various countries day and night. Now, it seems that Ou TianBao did all that to highlight his elegance and nobility that contrasted with his own vulgarity.

陷入对往事的追忆，欧凌逸怔楞的看着龙虾出神。欧天宝见他发呆，心里暗自一笑，温和的开口："别光看着，开动吧！今天吃法国大餐，这个是我为了欢迎小逸，特地叫厨房准备的。美味又营养，小逸你一定要多吃点。"

Immersed in the memories of the past, Ou LingYi stares at the lobster. Ou TianBao saw and laughed inwardly, gently coaxing him, "Don't just stare, move it! Today, we're eating a French course. I specifically asked the kitchen to prepare this to welcome you. It's delicious and healthy. Xiao-Yi, you need to eat more."

见欧天宝说出与前世一般无二的话，欧凌逸这次没有一点感动，只有满心的嘲讽。自己当初为何那样傻？这个欧家处处敌意，自己没发觉，到最后反而害死了唯一关爱自己的人。看来，上一世自己也是死有余辜。

Seeing that TianBao said the same thing in his previous life, Ou LingYi was not touched at all this time, only full of ridicule. How was he so dumb in the past? The Ou family had only hostility. He didn't realize in yhe beginning, and he ended up killing the only person who cared about him. It seemed that death will not free him of his sins for his past life's mistakes.

"好的，谢谢哥哥！"欧凌逸抬起头来，客气的对欧天宝一笑。

"Okay, thank you brother!" Ou LingYi raised his head, amicably smiling towards Ou TianBao.

冷眼坐在一边看着两人的互动，欧邢瑱皱起眉头。天宝怎么回事？虽然面上做的好，怎么处处与小逸为难？小逸没吃过西餐，天宝还叫厨房准备大龙虾，等会儿小逸出丑了怎么办？

Sitting on one side with icy looks and watching the interaction unfold, Ou XingZhen frowned. What's wrong with TianBao? Although on the surface it may be a good gesture, why must he make things difficult for Xiao-Yi? Xiao-Yi has never ate Western food before, and TianBao tells the kitchen to prepare a lobster. What if Xiao-Yi makes a fool of himself later?

心里这样想着，欧邢瑱不由担忧的看向表情淡漠依然的欧凌逸。大不了等会儿我手把手的教小逸好了。

Although he thought in such a way, Ou XingZhen unconcernedly looked at Ou LingYi, who wore an indifferent expression. It's not big deal; I'll teach Xiao-Yi step by step later.

脑补着自己将少年搂在怀里，握着他白嫩的小手进餐的场景，欧邢瑱对欧天宝的一丝不满瞬间消散，露出了一个憨傻的笑容。

His imagination filled him with scenes of him holding the young man in his arms, holding his pale, tender hand to dine. All the dissatisfaction dissipated in an instant, and he let out a silly smile.

欧凌霜和欧天宝双双表情惊异的瞥了一眼反常的二叔，唯有欧凌逸见怪不怪，优雅从容的拿起餐具，慢条斯理的开始进食。

Ou LingShuang and Ou TianBao both took a surprised glance at the abnormally expressioned second uncle; only Ou LingYi was unfazed. He elegantly picks up the tableware gracefully and leisurely begins to eat.

片刻后，桌上众人都忘了吃东西，只傻傻的看着眼前从容进餐的少年。少年动作自然优雅，一举手一投足，无不充满了高贵迫人的气质，就像一个真正的王子。

A moment later, everyone at the table forgot to eat to stare blanky at the young male calmly mealing. Every little movement was natural and graceful, full of noble qualities as he if was an actual prince.

欧凌霜霎时对面前的美味失去了兴趣，托腮，专注的看着美人进餐："常听人说什么秀色可餐，我今天总算见识了！一点儿不夸张，是真的。"

Ou LingShuang suddenly lost interest in the delicious food before her. She held her cheek and watched the beauty eat attentively: "I often hear what people say watching someone beautiful could be fulfilling. I finally experienced it today! It's true, no exaggeration.

听了欧凌霜直白的赞美，欧凌逸对她莞尔一笑："姐姐快吃吧！待会儿凉了就变味了。你们也是。"环顾同样怔楞的叔侄二人，欧凌逸又补了一句。

After listening to Ou LingShuang's straightforward praise, Ou LingYi smiles at her, "Sister, eat quickly! The taste will change if it cools. You guys too. " Looking around the same shocked faces on everyone else, Ou LingYi added another sentence.

看傻了眼的欧天宝和欧邢瑱双双清醒过来，垂头用餐。两人动作一致，表情却截然不同。一个是失策后的忌恨，一个是失策后的遗憾。

The stupefied faces on both Ou TianBao and Ou XingZhen fades away and they bow their heads to eat. The two men's actions are in unision, but their expressions are different. One is an expression of jealous hatred after a mistake, and the other is an expression of regret after a mistake.

不管别人心情如何，这一顿，欧凌逸却吃的很香。再加上欧凌霜时不时的打趣调侃，他心情更是明朗，面上微笑不曾断过，直看得欧邢瑱心脏噗噗狂跳。+

No matter what other people's mood was, Ou LingYi ate well this meal. In addition with Ou LingShuang's constant teasing and joking, his mood brightened even more. His smile never faded, which caused Ou XingZhen to watch with his heart beating wildly.
