Early the next morning, Cheng Tian Painting was asked by his mother to go to the market to buy vegetables.

Cheng Tian Hua reluctantly said, "Going to the market is boring. I want to go with big brother to run in the morning."

This was something she and Shen Mushi had been doing every day for the past few days. Shen Mushi had a habit of running in the morning, and at first it was Cheng Tian Painting who, for fun, ignored Shen Mushi's shooing and ran after him like a clown. Later on, she felt that there was nothing new about it, so when she didn't want to run, Shen Mushui dragged him along with her.

Having a companion to run with him in the morning, Shen Moxi was naturally looking forward to it.

"Be obedient, big brother won't run away in the morning." Cheng Juyun brought out a vegetable basket from the kitchen.

"Why didn't you run away in the morning?" Cheng Tian asked.

"I asked my brother to do some work for me at home."

"Then I have to work at home."

"Cheng …" Cheng Guanyun was infuriated. He almost shouted out her full name. She quickly swept a glance at Shen Muxi, who was in the courtyard, and said in a low voice, "Are you really unable to leave your brother at all?"

Cheng Tian Hua's small mouth turned flat as he muttered in a low voice, "I just don't want to go to the market …"

Cheng Juyun pulled her towards the door, whether she liked it or not. On the way out, she said to Shen Mushi, who was fixing the taps in the garden, "Mussi, don't run around. We'll be back soon."

"Yes, Auntie." Shen Moxi replied without turning his head.

When they walked out of the house, Cheng Tian Painting asked with a puzzled expression, "Didn't Mom say that the water tap couldn't be used anymore, so why didn't she use it?"

"Silly girl, your mother brought you out because she didn't want you to meet Mu Xi's grandmother to prevent your identity from being exposed." Cheng Guanyun glared at her and said, "You have a lot to do, you're the only one who doesn't want to go to the market with me."

Surprised, Cheng Tian Hua raised his head and looked at his mother, "Mother is saying that Old Mistress Shen is coming over today?"

"Yes."

"What is the madame doing here?"

"Of course it's to bring Big Brother Mousey back."

"Then is elder brother leaving today?" Cheng Tian Hua paused and asked anxiously.

"Perhaps. It would be best if we could go back today."

With a great buddha by her side, Cheng Guanyun felt extremely uncomfortable. She wished that Shen Mushui could think it through and go home quickly.

Noticing that there were no movements around him, Cheng Zhuoyun turned around and realized that Cheng Tian Hua was not following him. Instead, he turned around and headed in the direction of his home. She hurriedly chased after him, "Little Painted, what are you doing?"

Cheng Tian Hua anxiously cried, "I don't want to go to the market. I'll leave when I come back."

"Small drawing!" Cheng Zhengyun angrily pulled her back and looked down at her, "How did Mommy talk to you before? Big Brother Mousey has his own home and family. He is not your blood brother, so he wouldn't stay by your side forever. "

"I know... "But I just can't bear for my brother to leave."

"Big brother is only going home, not forever."

"Didn't brother want to go abroad?"

"You can come back even after you've left the country. Do you really want your brother to be mad and happy with you every day without studying at all?"

Cheng Tian Hua fell silent, but she also felt conflicted. She didn't want her brother to leave and also didn't want him to become a useless young man without any skills in martial arts.

What to do?

Cheng Guanyun patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, "That's enough, you can stop being so insensible."

Shen Moxi wasn't surprised at the madame's sudden appearance and guessed that she would come sooner or later.

Sitting on the sofa, the Countess took his left hand and examined the new scar left by the cut on his wrist. After inhaling with a pained heart, she mocked him with a solemn tone, "Do you think that by doing this, your father and that woman will be separated? You're wrong, your father will only be sad and blaming himself for a month at most, and then the three of them will live happily ever after. She will wish nothing more than for that woman, because if you die, everything in the Shen family will belong to her. "

Shen Muxi lightly retracted his hand and did not say anything.

He knew that he was weak doing this because he was too angry at the time. During this period of time, with Cheng Tian painting's guidance and accompanying, he gradually realized that he was too foolish back then and had gradually thought it through.

If time could be repeated, he would not do such a thing as harming himself and others.

The old lady saw that he did not say anything, so she changed her tone and asked, "Have you thought about your decision to go abroad?"

"I don't want to go." Shen Moxi replied seriously.

"Why? Give me a good reason. "

Shen Moxi's mouth gaped open. After a long while, he finally spat out, "I don't want to leave Bincheng."

"You can even abandon your home, what other things can you not throw away?"

"…" Shen Moxi was at a loss for words.

He had carefully considered leaving the country, but in the end, he decided to stay. As for what made him so reluctant to part with it, even he was unsure.

"Is it because of Yang Tingxin?" the old lady asked.

This question caused Shen Moxi to be startled as he looked at the old lady in surprise.

Yang Tenxin? Was it because of Yang Tingxin? This question really made him dumbfounded; he only felt that it was extremely funny.

He admitted that he really liked this girl. He was already used to having her around him making noise every day, but it wasn't because she gave up the opportunity to study abroad, right?

However, it wasn't because of her … And because of whom?

"Shen Moxi, you must go abroad." The old lady said with a serious face, "Even if it's for Yang Manxin's sake, you must go."

Once again, Shen Moxi was stunned.

What was Grandma talking about? He and Yang Tinxin were only siblings. Furthermore, Yang Tinxin was still so young, how could he include her in the love affair that only a grown man would understand?

"Yang Tianxin is a young miss of the Yang Family, when you grow up you will definitely marry a rich man and become his mistress, you will not study properly, and you will not enrich yourself, and you will just spend your days doing nothing. When I grow up, even if I personally hold Shen Shi in front of you, you still wouldn't be able to hold it. Even if that little girl is out of luck, she's still so young, and there's plenty of opportunities for you to give birth to a dozen brothers and sisters. At that time, with just your own strength, will you be able to defeat them? Can you stand up for yourself in Shen Shi? Being squeezed out of the Shen family, how can you propose to the Yang family? "What qualifications do you have to marry the Yang family's precious daughter?"

To marry Yang Tianxin as a wife when he grows up? This was a thought that Shen Muxi had never had before!

He was surprised that the old lady could find such an excuse to persuade him to go abroad, but … But the old lady's words struck his chord again, and for the first time he faced the question squarely.

First, he didn't have to think about whether he would get Yang Tinxin. However, when he thought about how Yang Tinxin would be married off to another woman and would stand around another man, laughing and making a ruckus, he couldn't help but feel jealous.

Was this the love adults were playing with? But he and Tensing were still so young, so they were still far from growing up …

"Think about it yourself. In the long run." The old granny said, "Even if you don't go abroad, in a few days you will have to make up for your first year in high school. Do you not even plan on going to school?"

"Grandma, I'll think about it." Shen Moxi said.

"Alright." Old Mistress Shen nodded her head. "The relevant procedures for going abroad are still in the process of being completed. You should go back to school in a few days and leave as soon as the procedures are done."

"Yes."

As soon as Cheng Tian painting came back from the market, he started to fill the room with people looking for Shen Mushi's figure. As he spoke, he became flustered and exasperated, "Brother! Brother, have you left? "

The living room was empty, and when she ran back into Shen Muxi's bedroom, it was still empty.

Her heart sank and she instantly started crying. She cried until she was extremely sad. "Big brother left …"

Looking at her sad and tearful daughter, Cheng Guanyun helplessly rolled his eyes. "You're so anxious, how can you find your brother?"

Her daughter's level of reliance on Young Master Shen had already reached the point where she was extremely worried. She was truly afraid that the matter that she had been worrying about would happen and come true.

However, she, an outsider, was helpless against that. After all, she had been persuaded and warned.

Cheng Tian Hua opened his eyes wide with tears as he stared at Cheng Qi Yun. Cheng Qi Yun used his lower jaw to point in the direction of the garden and Cheng Tian Hua immediately ran out.

Sure enough, Shen Muxi was squatting in the corner of the garden!

Cheng Tian Painting was ecstatic. He rushed up to hug Shen Muxi with excitement on his face, "Big Brother, so you were here. I thought you had left …"

Shen Muxi was planting roses at the base of the wall, his hands covered in mud. He was hugged by Cheng Tian Tu, and his body fell back onto the grass.

The love in his heart … Little by little, it was becoming a disaster.

"Big brother won't leave." He lifted his muddy hands and wrapped his wrists around her back, laughing very softly.

Cheng Tian Painting withdrew from his embrace and sized him up, "Didn't the old mistress come to pick you up? Why didn't you go back with her? "

"Because I'm afraid you'll look for me."

Because she was afraid that she would cry in grief because she could not find him, as she had just done.

"Big brother is so nice." Cheng Tian Hua turned his tears into a smile as he sized up his muddy hands and the rose that was already planted under the wall: "Didn't brother say that the current climate is too hot, so it's not suitable for growing flowers?"

Shen Moxi dotingly smiled and touched her head with her wrist, "But my little sister Tensing said that she hopes that at this time next year, the yard will be full of rose flowers planted personally by her big brother. I'm afraid that if she doesn't grow them now, she won't have the chance to do so anymore."

Whether he went abroad or not, it was only a matter of time before he left this place.

Shen Moxi's unintentional words caused Cheng Tian Tu's smile to gradually freeze and return to reality.

Mom was right. Even if she didn't want to leave, her brother would still leave. She couldn't let her brother give up his studies and the opportunity to become strong and outstanding because she couldn't bear to part with him.

"Tensing, I mean..." Shen Muxi realized that he had said something wrong and wanted to salvage the situation, but he didn't know how. He was at a loss of what to do and was at a loss for words.

"Tenxin, don't be angry. Big Brother will promise you that he won't leave." Shen Moxi said anxiously.

Cheng Tian Hua shook his head and stared at him with a serious expression, "Brother, you should leave, go study abroad and learn a lot of knowledge."

"But she left for many years. It will be many years before she can see big brother."

"It's alright. Then we'll meet again in many years. Big brother is a man. His future must be the most important, and he must become very powerful and outstanding." Cheng Tian Hua suppressed his reluctance.

This was what her mother had said, and this was what her mother had repeatedly reminded her of.

"When we see each other again, my brother will be very good and strong."

"Mm, definitely."

"Of course." This time it was Shen Moxi himself who raised his pinky finger to play with her. He looked at her and his gaze gradually softened. "Wait for me to come back. I must wait."

"Wait for brother to come back and teach me how to do my homework?" Cheng Tian Hua asked seriously.

Shen Moxi shook his head, his slender fingers gently stroking her ponytail. His tone was also as gentle as it had never been before. "Wait for me to come back and be my bride."

This was a thought he had never thought of before. Only today, after the old lady's suggestion, did it suddenly occur to him.

He had promised to protect her for the rest of her life, and if she were to protect him as her elder brother, it would be better to just be her guardian angel for the rest of her life.

Cheng Tian Painting looked at him in surprise, as if he hadn't expected him to suddenly say such words.

She, who was not yet eleven, knew the word bride well, but not well.

She had played the role of someone else's bride when she was young. She only knew that the bride was a very beautiful and happy person. From then on, she would live with the groom every day, eat and sleep together, and have a baby together.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to? " Shen Moxi actually became a little nervous when he saw her silence.

"Can I really be my brother's bride?" Cheng Tian asked.

Shen Mushui nodded.

Cheng Tian Hua suddenly laughed excitedly, "Yeah! Great! I want to be the bride of Big Brother Mousey! "

She wanted to be with her brother Mousey for generations!

"Then we'll agree on it." Shen Moxi said.

Cheng Tian Painted pointed his head with all his might.

Shen Muxi hesitated for a moment before he cautiously said, "Next week, big brother will first go to the school for supplementary lessons. Big brother will be moving away from here."

Cheng Tian painting nodded his head, and sadness filled his eyes once more.

Shen Moxi saw her sadness and hastily said, "But elder brother will often come to visit you. You can also go to elder brother's school to play."
