Chapter Ninety-Seven: Entrusting Him to You
"Sister Ruolan, is your dinner ready? I'm hungry. Lin Xiaotian sensed that Ji Ruolan was a little embarrassed, and immediately deliberately used words to help her resolve it.
Ji Ruolan understood his thoughts, and her heart was a little warm, and she hurriedly said, "It's all right, I'll go to the kitchen and bring it out." ”
"Okay, I'll clean up the mess here. Lin Xiaotian smiled slightly, and began to clean up the blood stains and stains on the ground.
Soon, Ji Ruolan put out a sumptuous dinner.
Lin Xiaotian looked at the table full of delicacies and said with a smile: "The full banquet of the Manchu and Han Dynasty is very appetizing when you look at it." ”
"Just make a few random dishes, and eat as many as you like. Ji Ruolan was a little happy when she heard this, turned around and went to the closet to get red wine and goblets, and poured most of the glasses for Lin Xiaotian and herself.
"Happy birthday to you. Lin Xiaotian picked up the red wine and touched the glass with her.
Ji Ruolan smiled, said "thank you", raised her neck and drank the red wine in the glass.
Lin Xiaotian was a little surprised, and said with concern: "Sister Ruolan, it's easy to get drunk after drinking so violently." ”
"It's okay, it's hard to be happy. Ji Ruolan's eyes were bright, "Besides, aren't you there?"
Lin Xiaotian felt that there was something too ambiguous in her eyes, and quickly moved her gaze away.
Seeing him dodge, Ji Ruolan probably also noticed that her gaze was a little explicit, and after laughing twice to relieve the embarrassment, she hurriedly said, "Aren't you hungry, hurry up and eat." ”
Lin Xiaotian smiled slightly, buried himself in eating, and praised from time to time.
When he was eating, Ji Ruolan was very sensitive to observe the dishes he liked to eat, and then silently wrote them down.
Lin Xiaotian noticed that Ji Ruolan's gaze fell on him from time to time, and there was always an inexplicable strange feeling in his eyes, and he slowly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Sister Ruolan, you can eat it yourself. With so many things, you don't want me to die alone. He laughs.
Ji Ruolan took a sip of red wine and said softly: "I'm not hungry, you eat slowly, you can eat as much as you can, no need to force it." ”
She had been deliberately dressed up tonight, elegant and neat home attire, her hair was simply tied back her head, and the whole person looked very much like the girl next door. And probably because of the rich experience, and some accumulation, the whole person has a little more mature charm than the ordinary girl next door.
At this moment, probably because of the stamina of red wine, her face was flushed, and the gentle gaze projected in her crystal bright eyes made her look particularly charming, and it also set off the mature charm on her body more and more strongly.
Lin Xiaotian's gaze only lingered on her for a moment, and then he quickly moved away. At this time, he already clearly felt that Ji Ruolan was a little abnormal tonight.
"Sister Ruolan, you should eat more. It's easy to get drunk if you don't eat or drink just by drinking. I'll have to cut the cake and make a wish later. But he still pretended not to know, and talked about things casually while eating.
"I know. Just drink some red wine to start an appetizer. Ji Ruolan smiled and ate attentively.
She no longer looked at herself, Lin Xiaotian was a lot more relaxed, and soon found some cheerful topics to chat with Ji Ruolan.
After enjoying a delicate dinner, Ji Ruolan brought out the birthday cake. The cake is beautifully made, with 26 candles on it, symbolizing that it is her 26th birthday.
"Make a wish, Sister Ruolan. After Lin Xiaotian lit those candles, he said with a smile.
Ji Ruolan clasped her hands together, made a wish sincerely, and then looked at Lin Xiaotian with a smile, her eyes full of cunning like a little girl.
"What a wish I made, so happy. Lin Xiaotian asked casually.
Ji Ruolan blinked her eyes and said, "It won't work if you say it, but I can reveal a little bit that it has something to do with you." ”
"Yes. Lin Xiaotian snorted and helped cut the cake.
After eating the cake, he offered to leave in order to avoid that delicate atmosphere from persisting.
Ji Ruolan immediately grabbed his arm, looked at him tenderly, and begged in a low voice: "Don't go, stay with me, okay?"
………………
In the transfer coffee in the university town, Tang Mingyue looked at Chen Tian with a smile.
"Actually, I'm really curious about what you want to talk to me about. ”
Chen Tian looked at her and said in a low voice, "I can feel that you are a smart woman. I'm looking for you today to talk about the 'heavens'. ”
"Hmm. Tang Mingyue's expression was flat, as if she had expected it.
"I can tell that you like him, don't you?" asked Chen Tian directly.
Tang Mingyue played with the porcelain cup in her hand and said lightly: "I don't deny this. I do like him, but three days ago, I didn't know he had a girlfriend. And after I bumped into you in the hospital that day, I realized that he still cares about you. ”
"Xiaotian likes you too. Chen Tian's voice was calm.
Tang Mingyue looked at her and felt a little confused about what she meant.
He said it to me himself. Chen Tian was still so calm.
Tang Mingyue pondered for a moment, and then said, "If I guess correctly, since he dares to admit that he likes me in front of you, it means that he likes you much more than he likes me." ”
"I know, but I want to entrust him to you, hoping that you will take good care of him on my behalf. ”
Chen Tian's words made Tang Mingyue's hands shake in shock, and she almost didn't knock over the coffee cup.
"I'm sorry. Tang Mingyue quickly calmed down, and then carefully observed Chen Tian's expression, and found that there was not the slightest trace of conspiracy on her body, so she said, "I don't really understand what you mean." ”
"Don't worry, I thought about it for a long time before telling you this, and I also mustered up a long time of courage before asking you out. Chen Tian looked at her with a clear look in his eyes, "I really don't want to drag the 'sky' anymore." I myself am too ordinary, except for being able to take care of him occasionally, I can't help him at all in other aspects. And that's not all. Because my family is special, if he wants to be with me, he will cause a lot of trouble. ”
Tang Mingyue looked at her, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
Chen Tian continued to state his thoughts, "And you are different. You're good, and you like him a lot. I believe that if 'Heaven' can be entrusted to you, you will definitely be able to give him a lot of help in his future development. So, after the comparison, I decided to quit. ”
"Have you ever communicated with Lin Xiaotian about this kind of thought?" Tang Mingyue looked at her, and her eyes became extremely gentle.
Chen Tian sighed, "When I saw you this time, it was all on my own, and he didn't know at all." ”
"I now finally understand why he cares so much about you. Tang Mingyue had a hint of pity in her eyes.
She really got it. Love was originally a very selfish thing, but in Chen Tian, it became a kind of selflessness. For the sake of Lin Xiaotian's future, Chen Tian was even willing to sacrifice his opportunity to be with him and took the initiative to push him into the arms of his rival.
Tang Mingyue could see that the girl in front of her was saying this completely from her heart, and there was no temptation. She is really simple, loves Lin Xiaotian, and loves him so much that she is even willing to sacrifice her happiness for him.
The moment she understood this, Tang Mingyue felt a little sorry for the girl in front of her, and at the same time, she also felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She felt that in Lin Xiaotian's heart, she was afraid that she would never be able to reach the same height as Chen Tian. Because Chen Tian can sacrifice everything for him, but he can't.
"You are Lin Xiaotian's love, if you leave him, do you know how much damage it will cause him?" she said as she looked at Chen Tian.
Chen Tian smiled bitterly, "I'll find a way to get him to leave me." ”
"If it weren't for this meeting, I might have really accepted such a good gift. But now, I realize that I can't take this gift. Tang Mingyue shook her head, "Lin Xiaotian can't do without you, and even if he leaves you, he may not choose me." You don't understand how much he cares about you. You thought it was for his good to leave him, but you never thought it would be a disaster for him. And perhaps in his opinion, it doesn't matter what the main force in his career is, what can take care of him in life is what he needs the most. ”
"Sister Mingyue, I've thought about this too. Chen Tian's voice was a little choked. Obviously, letting her give up Lin Xiaotian is also a very difficult choice for herself.
Tang Mingyue looked at her and said seriously: "Since you have thought about it, since you are reluctant, then why did you make such a stupid decision." You should have told him what you think, not come to me. I'm fully confident that Xiaotian will be frightened by your thoughts. He loves you so much. ”
"Also, I admit that I like him, but I don't want to get him in this way of being gifted by someone else. After speaking, she grabbed Chen Tian's hand.
Chen Tian's eyes were a little red, and he said in a low voice: "Sister Mingyue, I know that 'Tian' loves him very much. But it is precisely because he loves me and I love him that I don't want him to be sad for me anymore and sacrifice for me. You don't know, I only have half a year to go, and in half a year, I'm going to fulfill my promise and go back and marry someone I don't like. ”
"Does he know about this?" Tang Mingyue was shocked.
Chen Tian nodded.
"Then what does he reflect. ”
Chen Tian said dumbfoundedly, "He said that he would help me solve these problems, and then let me be with him without burden." ”
"That's it. Tang Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Since he promised you, he will definitely do it." What psychological burden do you have?"
"You don't know, it's not that simple. I don't want to embarrass him, and I don't want to burden him too much. I'm useless in the first place, and if I still make him sad, then I might as well ...... It's better to disappear. Chen Tian struggled for a while before he said the next half of the sentence.
Tang Mingyue clenched her hand and said seriously: "Don't be stupid. Since he made those promises to you, it means that in his heart, it is worth solving those problems for you. If you give up, it's a trampling on his promises, a trampling on the effort he has put in. If you think about it, is this love or cruelty to him? ”
"Sister Mingyue, I really don't know. I don't want him to be upset, but I don't want to drag him down. What should I do?" Chen Tian buried his head helplessly, tears rolling down his eyes.
