At night, the city is brightly lit, and the colorful neon lights illuminate the dark night, reflecting a gorgeous scene. The streets of the city are lined with people who wander at night, throwing off the constraints of the day and enjoying the indulgence of the night.

Compared to the people who come and go in and out of nightclubs and restaurants, there are significantly fewer cars on the streets than during the day, and taxis carrying passengers are moving unimpeded.

Chang Xing sat in a taxi bound for the West District, bowing her head slightly, and looking down at Hua Ruoquan, who was already drunk on her lap.

Today is the annual high school reunion. Since a month ago, the class president called up the phone number from the classmates and called one by one. The college life is unforgettable, but the high school classmates are the most deeply remembered in their hearts, maybe everyone still retains the purest memories of each other at that time, or maybe the life at that time retains the most youthful imprint.

The high school reunion has been held for seven years and has not been interrupted since I was in college. The older you get, the more enthusiastic you are. Now that the students have reached the age of starting a family, at the wine table, some people have already traveled with them, and even hugged fat dolls in their hands, and some people have impressive titles on their business cards, which make people envious. A year of unfamiliar people made everyone a little polite at the beginning of the dinner, a few glasses of wine under the stomach, between laughter, and as if back to the once young and unrestrained era, everyone began to hook shoulders, toasted each other, and finally simply put aside the wine glasses, with bottles to dry each other.

When she was in high school, her only friend Jiang Jinchen didn't come, and Hua Ruoquan was dragged by those men to drink, so Chang Xing just sat quietly and ate the dishes, listening to the female classmates who used to gather next to her to talk about their current life.

She has always been just a shadow-like existence, with no dazzling appearance, no excellent grades, and the only thing that will make people jealous is that she has a childhood sweetheart - Hua Ruoquan.

Hua Ruoquan has been a high-profile child since he was a child. Pleasing looks, brilliant mind. From kindergarten, primary, secondary school, and university, at any time, he is always the spotlight gathering. Excellent grades, tall and elongated body, more and more handsome face, boys envy and admire girls, but it's a pity that ordinary people like her, can have such an excellent childhood sweetheart, but they are quietly squeezed out by those girls.

If Jiang Jinchen hadn't taken her with her in high school, maybe she would never have blended into those girls' small groups. It's a pity that Jiang Jinchen has almost never had the opportunity to participate in high school classmates since college, and she has returned to the era of shadows.

That's fine, anyway, she's not good at dealing with people, and it's easier to be alone.

Halfway through the meal, the men at the banquet were almost drunk, and the squad leaders, who were still a little sober, assigned their own personnel to send the drunk people home. And needless to say, she was naturally assigned to Hua Ruoquan.

The car was very heavy with alcohol, and the driver opened the window slightly to let in the air, and the cool breeze of late autumn blew into the car to bring some coolness.

Chang Xing shivered slightly, looking at Hua Ruoquan, who was drunk, worried that he would catch a cold when he fell asleep. Chang Xing was embarrassed to let the driver close the window, so he could only take off his coat and cover Hua Ruoquan's body, and after thinking about it, he took off the scarf and carefully covered his neck.

It seemed that he felt a little hot because he was covered tightly, Hua Ruoquan moved his body, unconsciously reached out and lifted the coat on his body, Chang Xing hurriedly put the coat back on him, leaned down slightly and said softly: "Ah Quan, you have to cover your coat, otherwise you will catch a cold." ”

The shallow whisper was soft and soft, like a gentle hand soothing Hua Ruoquan, who was a little uncomfortable, and after Hua Ruoquan let out a long breath, he quietly rested on her lap and didn't move.

The two get along tacitly and harmoniously, and outsiders look like a couple for many years, but it's a pity that Ruoquan has never listed her as the object of dating, and she may always be the little sister next door hiding behind him in his heart.

She didn't know when she liked him, maybe it was when he opened his hands in front of her in kindergarten to stop the boys who were going to bully her, and that liking planted a seed in her heart, which slowly took root and sprouted in the next twenty-two years.

The taxi drove to a tunnel, the lights in the tunnel were a little evacuated, Chang Xing quietly held Hua Ruoquan's generous and warm hand in the dimness, and quietly crossed her fingers, her movements were so cautious, for fear of waking him up.

It's not that the two have never held hands and hugged, it's just that holding hands and hugging like that is just pure friendship, maybe it should be said that it is a manifestation of his pure friendship with her, and she can only suppress her liking.

She is not an excellent woman, but he is a dazzling man, with a successful career and handsome appearance, she and him are two very different people, and they can be connected together just because of the title of a "childhood sweetheart".

The two families lived close to each other, and she and he had known each other since kindergarten, and no one expected that the two would be able to walk together for twenty-two years.

Her kindergarten, primary school, and middle school were all in the same class as him for fifteen years, but unfortunately her grades couldn't be admitted to his key university at all, so his four years of college were her blanks, but fortunately, he always contacted her, so as not to make the relationship between the two cold.

Without Hua Ruoquan and Jiang Jinchen, her college would have been spent plainly, without ups and downs, without *, just like a glass of plain boiled water, and she successfully got her college diploma. Four years later, perhaps most of her classmates at that university may not know about her.

And he is still a shining star in the university, she can hear about him from her former classmates, know that he is the president of the student union, know that one of his designs is favored by a well-known company, and know what glory he has in the university...... Knowing that he had a girlfriend, knowing that he broke up.

It wasn't until he graduated from college that he returned to the city and reconnected with her in the past.

Three years after graduating from university, at the age of 26, she is just a small clerk in a little-known company, and he is already the financial manager of a well-known electronics joint-stock company.

Although she was the closest person to him, in her invisible heart, she could only stand in a humble corner and look up at him.

can only hold his hand secretly in the night when only one person knows, and silently convey the love in his heart.
