Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Fourth Brother was the only Big Brother Murong Qiao had never seen before.

She looked at the message her Big Brother Murong Chen sent her in surprise and replied.

[Fourth Brother?] Murong Qiao was a little curious.

Soon, Murong Chen replied.

[He’s a designer. He’s been staying abroad all this time and he’ll be back on New Year’s Day.] Murong Chen briefly introduced him.

Fourth Brother’s name was Yan Xiu. Since he was young, his talent in art had exceeded that of ordinary people. His thoughts were wild and creative, so he went further and further on the path of design. Now, he has already become the number one designer in the country and abroad.

[I’ll arrange for someone to pick him up. You can take the chance to get to know him too.] Murong Chen suggested.

She had already met the others, but her Fourth Brother had not shown up yet. Murong Chen took this opportunity to say something so that they could get to know each other better.

Murong Qiao blinked and stared at the message.

[I’ll go and fetch Fourth Brother.] She accepted the mission.

Murong Qiao was also very curious about this Fourth Brother. She thought that there was no better time like the present. If she went to pick him up personally, she would save Big Brother the trouble of making special arrangements.

Murong Chen was stunned when he saw his Little Sister’s message. The next second, Fourth Brother’s ice-cold face appeared in his mind.

If he saw that it was his Little Sister who went to pick him up, who knew how he would react.

[Alright, this is his photo.] Murong Chen took out a photo taken last year from the album and sent it to Murong Qiao.

This was a photo from Fashion Week. It was a Fashion Week with Yan Xiu’s design as focus. At that time, Murong Chen felt that it was very memorable, so he asked a photographer to take it. Thus, this photo of Yan Xiu was unintentionally taken and kept.

Murong Qiao clicked on the photo curiously, and a hint of experience flashed across her eyes.

The man in the photo was expressionless. His beautiful and delicate facial features looked exceptionally beautiful, but because of his background and dressing, he did not look feminine. He was wearing an extremely tailored suit and sitting down. Perhaps it was because he worked indoors, his skin was extremely fair. His slender legs were crossed, and his fingertips were placed on his knees, making him look very imposing. He had a very distant aura.

After looking at this photo carefully, Murong Qiao’s greatest feeling turned into one word.

Indifference.

It was as if she was looking at a glacier, making her feel cold from the inside out.

Murong Qiao noted down her Fourth Brother’s appearance and the date of the plane, then said goodnight to Big Brother Murong Chen.

[Goodnight, Big Brother.] Murong Qiao sent a message.

Today was so fun that Murong Qiao wanted to yawn.

She rubbed her eyes and suddenly felt sleepy.

[Goodnight, Qiaoqiao.] Murong Chen replied.

Murong Qiao braced herself. After taking a look at the message with her last clear thoughts, she instantly fell asleep.

After a night, the Christmas festive atmosphere faded and everything returned to normal.

Most importantly, the exam was approaching. The students had to start revising and Murong Qiao was no exception. She had also become a frequent visitor to the library. From time to time, she would pull Yang Xin and Leng Yan to study and prepare for the exam.

After lunch, the three of them would go straight to their old seats in the library and sat down to study.

However, Yang Xin was not a well-behaved person. After sitting down for a few minutes, she tugged at Murong Qiao’s sleeve to gossip.

“Why haven’t 1 seen School Hunk Huo for the past two days?” she asked curiously.

It was no wonder that Yang Xin was so gossipy. In the past, Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen were inseparable. In the end, the number of times the two of them had been together in the past two days could be counted on one hand.

Murong Qiao came back to her senses. “He’s been busy recently.”

She wasn’t patronizing Yang Xin. Huo Yichen had been really busy for the past two days. He had even applied for leave from the counselor yesterday and told her that he was going overseas and he didn’t even have a fixed return date.

Murong Qiao didn’t want to get to the bottom of it as she could guess from Huo Yichen’s words that it was about the Huo family, so she didn’t ask further.

“It’s good that the two of you didn’t quarrel.” Yang Xin heaved a sigh of relief. “There are all kinds of things on the forum. 1 was so scared that I almost believed them.”

Yang Xin was relieved to know that the couple she had been shipping was still safe and sound. She began to study.

As long as the couple didn’t collapse, Yang Xin didn’t think it would be a problem even if the sky collapsed.

Seeing that Yang Xin had started studying again, Murong Qiao didn’t say anything else. Her gaze just turned back to her textbook.

But this time, it was her turn not to be in the mood to learn.

What is he doing now?

Murong Qiao couldn’t help but think that she always felt that something was missing when Huo Yichen wasn’t by her side. However, Murong Qiao couldn’t describe this feeling. Only then did she realize that she had already gotten used to living with Huo Yichen around.

Her longing for him increased day by day. Murong Qiao lived her life as usual, but there would always be an empty seat beside her, as if there was a piece missing in her heart.

Until New Year’s Day, Murong Qiao received a message from her Big Brother.

Fourth Brother Yan Xiu is coming back.

“Alright, I’ll remember,” Murong Qiao replied and hung up.

Fourth Brother’s flight was in the afternoon, so Murong Qiao applied for leave and took a taxi to the airport to wait.

Although he looked cold and handsome in the photo, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but look forward to it.

“Just stop here, driver.” She told the taxi driver before getting out of the car.

The airport was minimalist and had a glass dome that allowed people sitting in the terminal to see the planes flying over it.

Murong Qiao stood at the exit and looked up at the sky. The vast blue sky made her mood better, like a pure white cloud.

Murong Qiao had estimated the time of her brother’s arrival on her phone and come a little earlier. It seemed like Fourth Brother’s plane would arrive at the airport in ten minutes.

Perhaps she should find a place to sit down and rest for a while.

As soon as this thought appeared in Murong Qiao’s mind, it was dispelled because she saw a familiar figure in the crowded exit.

Huo Yichen?

Murong Qiao stared at the familiar person in surprise and confirmed again and again that it was Huo Yichen.

“Qiaoqiao?” Huo Yichen also noticed her at this moment.

He looked at Murong Qiao in surprise. Thinking that she was here to pick him up, he smiled happily.

During the week abroad, Huo Yichen had been thinking about Murong Qiao all the time. The matter that originally needed ten days was forcefully dealt with in just three days, so that he could take a plane back early.

The moment he saw Murong Qiao, his joy exceeded his confusion, making him forget why Murong Qiao happened to appear here since he had only decided on taking this return flight at the last minute.

“I—” Before Murong Qiao could explain the reason, Huo Yichen hugged her tightly.

The words she wanted to say were also drowned out by this hug.

It was said that absence made the heart grow fonder. Murong Qiao finally felt this sentence deeply.

It had only been a few days since they last met, but the moment she saw Huo Yichen, she was overjoyed so much that she wished she could bury herself in his arms.

The handsome man and beautiful woman hugged each other tightly at the airport exit. Such a beautiful side made pedestrians stop.

As soon as they got off the plane, they walked out of the exit and saw this scene.

Was this the surprise that Murong Chen had mentioned?

Yan Xiu only told Murong Chen the news of his return. Before he took off, he received a text that he would receive a surprise when he reached.

Yan Xiu raised his eyebrows. He recognized Murong Qiao but he felt a little unfamiliar, especially when he saw her hugging another man… The situation was simply intriguing.

Thanks to the Murong brothers’ WeChat group, Yan Xiu knew Murong Qiao’s appearance by heart from the other brothers’ childish behavior of showing off their gifts from her.

However, the first impression Murong Qiao gave him was really deep..
