Chapter 5: Grateful, I'm Sorry
She has not responded to Duan Yehan's words in the car, because even she herself doesn't know what kind of person she is. Lan Xue lay on the bed and closed her eyes tightly and just wanted to fall asleep quickly, if she was lucky, she might not hear that voice.
"Snowmark, I'll help him recognize you. It seems that Lan Xue is not very lucky today, and when she heard that voice again, she covered her ears and kept turning around. "Snowmark, I'll help him recognize you. The voice was repeated over and over again. From small to large. This voice always appeared in my ears at night from time to time. Lan Xue was most afraid of being alone, she was afraid of hearing this voice, but whenever she woke up, she couldn't hear it anymore. Sometimes Lan Xue secretly rejoices, fortunately, this voice doesn't appear every day, otherwise she would really collapse······
Just today, on a whim, I want to "inspect" my daughter's work. Shan Ru quietly walked into the swimming pool and looked at Lan Xue who was painting, with a relieved smile on his face. Lan Xue didn't know that her mother was standing behind her, she just concentrated on painting. Gradually, the silhouette of a little boy sleeping on the beach became clear. Lan Xue stared at the silhouette, a satisfied smile appeared on her face and said to herself, "At that time, I really thought you were asleep. So, you suddenly opened your eyes and startled me. What are you thinking? It's not counting the time waiting for me to find you, is it? Maybe it's ······." When Shan Ru heard her daughter's words, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, "Xiaoxue!" Lan Xue turned around and saw Shan Ru standing there, "It's Mom." Lan Xue immediately got down from the ladder, "Mom, why are you here? miss me so much, you have lunch ······" Before Lan Xue could finish speaking, Shan Ru slapped her hard, and the crisp sound seemed to be heard in the entire swimming pool. Shan Ru's tears swirled in his eyes, "Lan Xue, when will you wake up!" I haven't said anything to your father for ten years. But do you know that you have been closing yourself off for the past ten years, saying more to that kid every day than to us. I don't know how my daughter became like this, you are torturing yourself! If I knew you were going to be like this, I would rather that child hadn't appeared. Lan Xue covered her flushed cheeks, tears flowing down uncontrollably, "Mom, you can hit me, but you can't hit him." He saved me, and it was He who continued my life. I am Lan Xue and Zuo Chen, and I am living with the life he gave. "Daughter, what's wrong with you? Xiaochen saved you, your father and I are very grateful to him, but this doesn't mean that my daughter has to treat herself like this for the rest of her life!" Shan Ru's voice was close to hoarseness, and his eyes no longer had the brilliance they had when he first came in. Looking at Shan Ru's eyes on the verge of despair, Lan Xue shook her head with a light smile and said, "I am not grateful to him, I am sorry for him." Because of guilt, I want to chat with him every day to please him. I've always said that my brother would be scared alone. In fact, I was afraid in my heart, I was afraid of being alone, so I wanted to follow him all the time and let him accompany me. If he had just slept quietly on the beach that day, and I hadn't rushed to find him, he wouldn't have left. "What about Twilight? Hasn't he been playing with you since he was a child?" Shan Ru never understood, but it was just a part of his childhood memory, why his daughter just couldn't let go. "Brother Twilight is different, he is not afraid of a person. I will be afraid, and Zuo Chen will be afraid. "Xiaoxue! you······ Remember having lunch, my mother left first. Shan Ru had nothing to say, of course, she didn't want to say anything more, and in the face of her stubborn daughter, she had no choice but to turn around and leave.
As soon as Shan Ru left, Lan Xue could no longer support her trembling body, she collapsed to the ground, and the pain that had accumulated in her heart for ten years was finally vented in this loud crying. The only thing that makes Lan Xue happy now is that she is the only one here, she can cry without any scruples, and she doesn't have to worry about being discovered by others. "Don't cry, it's not your fault. I don't know when Duan Yehan appeared beside him, and he gently helped himself up to wipe away his tears. Lan Xue didn't have the ability to think about superfluous things now, so she just looked at him with tears streaming down her face. Seeing the tears on Lan Xue's face, Duan Yehan suddenly looked a little overwhelmed, "I'm sorry, I'm not eavesdropping." It's just that I don't know how to get in. "Mr. Duan, do you also think my current appearance is annoying?" Lan Xue tried her best to control the tears she wanted to shed again, like a child who had done something wrong, seeing Duan Yehan was like seeing a "life-saving straw", holding on tightly, hoping to get a direction that could guide her. Duan Yehan stared at him, although his eyes were deep, the heartache in it was unobstructed. He shook his head and said firmly, "No, you're a good girl, and no one will hate you." "Well, if I do this, will he find me annoying? He has liked to be quiet since he was a child, and maybe I shouldn't bother him like this every day. "He?" Duan Yehan's gaze suddenly became a little hesitant, but he immediately put away this hesitation and said, "How could he find you annoying? It's not that he likes to be quiet, but because he has no friends, and if he doesn't have friends, he has to be alone, and it's really scary to be alone, I guess you're the first person who wants to be friends with him. Not only does he not feel annoyed, but he feels very satisfied and happy. "Really? Thank you, Mr. Duan, for comforting me. But I should be sober, ten years later, perhaps, he has forgotten what I am. Perhaps, he had forgotten that there was even such a little girl. Duan Yehan's words made Lan Xue seem to have suddenly found a friend who understood him, but even if Duan Yehan speculated Zuo Chen's thoughts with him, he still didn't have much confidence. Although I know that my "confidence" is meaningless in the face of a person who has left, who teaches me that I can't let go of the person who gave me my life after all? "Fool, do you just distrust the person you have remembered in your heart for ten years? Everything about you will be his mark. A mark that will never be erased. The firmness in Duan Yehan's eyes made Lan Xue feel a little incredible, as if what he was talking about was not someone else but about himself. This incredibleness in her heart also made Lan Xue a little hesitant, "Mr. Duan······" Do you believe him?" Duan Yehan suddenly blurted out the words, which suddenly made Lan Xue have no time to hesitate and be puzzled, and she replied categorically: "Hmm." "Alright, let's go wash your face. Duan Yehan's tone at this moment gradually lost the softness and cordiality just now, and suddenly it was just like the simple tone of his boss.
"Hmm. Lan Xue answered and went out to wash her face, and Duan Yehan also left. No one knew that Duan Yehan, who was hiding outside the door before, was also crying. It's just that he closed his eyes tightly and let the tears flow silently······
"Dad. Duan Yehan saw Duan Mutian sitting on the sofa in his office reading the newspaper. Duan Mutian flipped through the newspaper casually and asked casually: "Ye Han, did you go to see that kid painting again?" Duan Mutian suddenly put down the newspaper in his hand, stared at Duan Yehan with blazing eyes, and said, "I don't understand, you obviously know that child's heart, why do you ······?" Dad, thank you. Duan Yehan suddenly lowered his head and interrupted Duan Mutian's words. Duan Mutian smiled bitterly and sighed lightly, and picked up the newspaper again, "Stinky boy, always thank me, my ears are calloused." Listen, boy, your mom and I never need your thanks. Instead, we want to thank you, and if it weren't for you, your mother might not be okay by now. Duan Yehan slowly raised his head, and a sad smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I still remember that day." I was playing ball, and a girl was sitting not far from us. Then the ball rolled to her feet and I wanted to pick it up, so I chased after it. But the closer I got, the clearer her voice became. She was asking me if she was getting prettier every year. Also, she wants to tell me that she is 20 years old and can no longer call me Brother Xiaochen and has to call me Zuochen. That's her. That's when I wanted to rush over and hug her and say to her, silly girl, stop looking at the place I left, I'm back. Duan Mutian held his cheeks with his hands, and his whole person was already intoxicated, "Then did you say it?" "What!" Facing Duan Mutian's curiosity, Duan Yehan smiled faintly and replied, "I said, can you help me pick up the ball?" "What! That's what you said?" Duan Mutian threw down the newspaper in disappointment and questioned Duan Yehan with some "anger". Duan Yehan smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yes, otherwise how could she not know me at the cocktail party?" "Then when do you want to tell her?" Duan Yehan shook his head, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn, "I won't tell her, she is a real princess." I'm just an illegitimate child who can't see the light, and I can't do that to her. However, for Duan Yehan's "good intentions", Duan Mutian couldn't understand: "Silly son, have you forgotten? You are now Duan Yehan, the son of Duan Mutian, who ranks second on the list of the richest people in Asia." If you need to, Dad will work hard to defeat the little Japanese boy at the top of the list and make you the son of the richest man!" "Then thank you Dad. Duan Yehan smiled knowingly. "You're welcome! That's what dad should do, as long as you're happy. "I can't love her. I hope she can live a peaceful and happy life. I can protect her like an invisible man, as long as I protect her silently. As long as she's happy, it doesn't matter if the person she's with is me or not. In fact, the person who could really make her happy already existed before I appeared. Xu Duhang, he is the real prince. Isn't the reason why fairy tales are perfect is because the princess will live happily ever after with the prince? As long as she lives like in fairy tales, I am satisfied. Hearing Duan Yehan's tone, Duan Mutian already knew that his son's future road was destined to be extremely hard, which made him feel very helpless, "Son, you are too hard. "I am very lucky to have met two such wonderful adoptive fathers. Zuo Yang's father, and you. Duan Yehan's tone gradually returned to relaxation, he wanted Duan Mutian to know that he had enjoyed too much favor compared to Xingku. However, at this moment, Duan Mutian seemed to suddenly remember something, and the helplessness in his eyes just now disappeared completely at this moment, "Since you can't tell her that you are Zuo Chen, then use the name Duan Yehan to love her." Isn't that great?" Duan Yehan rejected Duan Mutian's proposal, "I will never let that guy live comfortably." Mom and Zuoyang's father both died for him. Zuo Chen is dead, so I want to take revenge with Duan Yehan's identity. The Xu Lan family is very close, and the Lan family will definitely help. Lan Xue would be very difficult if she was with me. The people of the Xu family like her, and once the person she likes becomes the enemy of the Xu family, I don't want her to face that situation. Instead of loving me bitterly, it is better to hate me bitterly. This is fate and cannot be changed. Zuo Chen can't be with Lan Xue, and neither can Duan Yehan. None of them deserved her. Duan Mutian shook his head helplessly, got up and patted Duan Yehan's shoulder, "Whatever you want, in short, no matter what decision you make, your parents will support you." After Duan Mutian finished speaking, he got up and left······
aerodrome
There are not many people who pick up the airport today, and Lan Xue is afraid that she will be late, so she deliberately felt the airport an hour early. It was almost time, and Lan Xue began to look around, and finally, he saw someone waving to him not far away. "Brother Twilight!" Lan Xue hurriedly followed. Xu Duhang pushed the luggage cart and pulled a blonde and blue-eyed beauty to Lan Xue's side, "Little guy, long time no see." Come, introduce, my new girlfriend Emma. Authentic American beauty. Xu Duhang's smile is always so confident. "Brother Twilight, your girlfriend is so beautiful. Lan Xue looked at the beauties beside Xu Duhang, her eyes full of admiration. "Of course, I finally snatched it from my buddy. Lan Xue's admiration made Xu Duhang's tone extremely proud. "Then let's go back. "Okay. Xu Duhang said as he took out a card from his wallet and handed it to Emma, "Thank you for accompanying me back, this is a gift for a breakup." Goodbye. Lan Xue was a little surprised, and before she could react, she was pulled out of the airport by Xu Duhang······
In the car, Lan Xue didn't speak. Xu Duhang smiled and pinched her face, "What's the matter, little guy, don't you have anything to say to your brother?, Brother Duhang, I miss you so much, you're finally back or something, don't you have anything to say to me?" Lan Xue shook her head helplessly and said, "Why are you still like this?" Although Lan Xue felt helpless, Xu Duhang didn't think so, "I don't understand your words." Lan Xue turned her head sideways, looked at Xu Duhang very seriously, and asked, "Since they were all abandoned by you in the end, then why did you pursue them?" Lan Xue's words made Xu Duhang become serious all of a sudden, but after a few seconds, this seriousness and seriousness were replaced by Xu Duhang's disapproval, "It seems that the little guy has really grown up." Let my brother tell you that for me, it is normal to have a girlfriend and change girlfriends. If you like it, you chase it, and if you are not interested, you break up. I've always been like that. "You weren't like that when you were a kid. Lan Xue said very decisively. "It just didn't you notice. Actually, I also have a music teacher who pursued his first year of high school. It's the one with short hair and glasses, do you still have an impression?" "Then when will you have a girlfriend who won't break up if you chase him?" The habitual disapproval in Xu Duhang's tone made Lan Xue have to ask such a question. Xu Duhang smiled hesitantly, "I think, there should be such a woman, but she doesn't know my existence yet." By the way, little one, let Brother Twilight take you to work tomorrow. I heard that Mu Lin has a lot of beautiful guests, so you can create a chance for your brother. Although Lan Xue was a little conflicted, she still agreed to Xu Duhang's request, "Okay." I really don't know if the girl you met tomorrow was lucky or unlucky?" "Of course I'm lucky to meet a handsome and temperamental person!" "Hey, can I really think that?" The unease in Lan Xue's tone made Xu Duhang very "dissatisfied", and he said unconvinced: "Of course, little guy, it's decided." Remember, Brother Twilight will pick you up tomorrow. Don't wait for me to arrive, you're still in bed. "Got it, I'm not in bed for a long time. ”
