Qiao Lin just asked a question according to his words, but miraculously calmed down Nan Haoyu.

He smiled faintly, his heart broke, and began to talk endlessly, "When I was very young, my grandfather and father formulated a strict training plan for my brother. In addition to language, mathematics, science and other disciplines, as well as music, art, aristocratic movement and aristocratic etiquette, there is no shortage of it. I have always grown up with my elder brother's training plan. I will learn whatever he learns. My grandfather and father did not formulate a training plan that suits me separately according to my talent and personality. They are relatively relaxed in the degree of learning and what requirements I can meet, and they are not as strict as they are to my brother."

Qiao Lin nodded and comforted her, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with this. There will be gains and losses. Although your grandfather and father are not as strict with you as your brother, on the other hand, don't you gain more freedom and broader space for development?"

"Yes!" Nan Haoyu turned his face and looked at her, feeling that he had found a soulmate. "I think the same as you, and even feel that my grandfather and dad love me more. In this way, I happily grew to ten years old."

Speaking of this, he poured some wine into each of his glasses, then raised his glass to her, "cheers!"

“cheers!”

Qiao Lin clinked glasses with him, her cheeks seemed to be dyed with smoke and a gorgeous and elegant figure.

She originally had a kind of elegant and quiet beauty. Once she drank wine, she seemed to break the taboos, and her whole body burst into shimmering brilliance and charming charm, but it was not common.

When Nan Haoyu saw it, he felt like he had tasted a high-quality wine, and his eyes showed a bit of praise and appreciation.

Touching his eyes, Qiao Lin's heart suddenly trembled, and the hand that stroked his shoulder, shrank for a moment, and then quietly took it back.

After calming his heartbeat, she continued his words and asked, "Oliver, what happened when you were ten years old?"

"That year, when my brother celebrated his twelfth birthday, my father gave him a birthday gift of a maroon pony..."

Nan Haoyu looked sad and fell into recollection.

Just when he was ten years old, Nan Sichen was twelve years old.

April 28th was Nan Sichen's birthday. James bought a precious pony, which was brunette and had no trace of miscellaneous hair. It was shining and beautiful.

"Lawrence, I gave this horse a name, "Earl". As your birthday gift, are you happy?" James lowered his eyes and said with a smile to Nan Sichen.

Of course Nan Sichen was happy. He had been learning to ride a horse for several years, and he had long wanted a horse of his own. He raised his hand to stroke the horse's back. The horse was well-behaved. He just whispered softly, and stood still and let him caress him.

Nan Sichen's blue eyes were bright and he looked happy. This little "earl" looked very gentle and quite close to him.

After touching the pony for a while, he turned around and was about to thank James, but accidentally saw Nan Haoyu standing next to his father.

The ten-year-old boy, because he was active, jumping and naughty, was very tall and only a little shorter than himself, and had grown to his father's chest. At this moment, he kept staring at the pony, with envy and desire in his eyes.

Seeing Nan Haoyu's urgent expression, Nan Sichen felt soft.

Since he was a child, he has been very frank about gifts and other things. Generally, as long as Nan Haoyu likes it, he will give it to his younger brother.

A horse is just a gift.

So he raised his eyes and said to James, "Dad, thank you for giving me this horse. I like it very much, but Oliver seems to like this horse more than me. Otherwise, give it to him."

"What about you, don't you?" James walked up to him and asked him warmly.

Nan Sichen smiled faintly. The little boy was already handsome, "I can wait for the next one."

Upon hearing this, James frowned.

He reached out and pressed Nan Sichen's shoulder with some force, "Lawrence, you can give some irrelevant things to others, but you must seize the things that are crucial to your life. Some things, some people, you cannot wait. Once you have a waiting attitude, the final outcome will be missed, and there will be no next time."

A trace of doubt flashed across Nan Sichen's handsome face, "Dad, but this is just a horse..."

James looked cold, "But the name of this horse is 'Earl'!"

James's words were deeply imprinted in Nan Sichen's heart like a brand.

From then on, he realized the name of the count that he had to bear as the eldest son and grandson of the Garomi family, as well as the unshirkable honor and responsibility behind the name.

The same words brought Nan Haoyu a heart-wrenching pain.

However, the ten-year-old boy suddenly realized that only irrelevant things could he compete with Nan Sichen; and those crucial things, the name of the count, the mission of the family, and the glorious honor, never belonged to him, even if it was just a pony named "Earl"...
