Xu Lan knew that her brother was very smart, and when she heard Xu Zheming ask on the phone if it was herself, she couldn't help but smile.

Zhong Ying said: "I don't quite understand. If you are proud of him, why do you want him to do this? ”

"No, it's not a." Xu Lan said, looking back at her, his eyes seemed to see the bottom of her heart.

"I'm just, let him and you see things clearly."

Zhong Ying felt that she couldn't figure it out, so she changed the topic; "I thought you came here for He Chengqian." When she saw Xu Lan nodding, she was surprised: "But you didn't go to her." ”

"I'm going to see something clearly, too." Xu Lan said, looking into the distance with a calm and indifferent gaze.

"There are some things that I always want to know if it's worth it."

Zhong Ying didn't want to play dumb riddles with her, so she asked her what she was going to do now and where she was going.

Xu Lan asked her to take herself to a pier.

It's a cargo port where big cargo ships dock and containers are transported by booms.

The two men stood there, followed by taciturn bodyguards.

"You didn't like bodyguards before." Zhong Ying said that she was not prepared for Xu Lan to answer. But Xu Lan replied, calmly: "Because I always couldn't see myself clearly before." ”

She smiled at Zhong Ying, relieved.

"I can't see anyone clearly."

Zhong Ying was stunned, and when she heard Xu Lan's mobile phone ringing, the bodyguard picked it up, said a word, and bent down to Xu Lan and said, "It's Young Master He Chengqian." ”

Xu Lan said: "Tell him that I am very busy now and have no time to talk to him for the time being." ”

The bodyguard truthfully relayed it, and after a while, he bent down again: "Young Master He asked, is Miss Zhong by your side now." ”

Xu Lan sighed, her posture was like seeing her disobedient son as a mother.

Zhong Ying sneered, Xu Lan turned her head to look at her, and reached out to take the phone in the bodyguard's hand.

"What do you want to know?" She asked.

I don't know what to say over there, Zhong Ying heard Xu Lan's voice coldly: "What does this have to do with you?" ”

"Really? Are you willing to do something for her to prove it? ”

Zhong Ying listened to her voice becoming colder and colder, but she didn't know what He Chengqian said.

"Don't even dare to do this, and you dare to say that you are going to pursue her?"

"Yes, there may not be so many times in life when you have to choose, but when you have to choose, the answer you hand in is unqualified."

She hung up the phone, pinched her palms and was stunned for a long time, then looked up and smiled at Zhong Ying: "My vision is not as good as yours." ”

With a heartbeat, Zhong Ying asked, "What?" ”

Xu Lan said clearly: "No wonder you don't look down on He Chengqian, he really doesn't take responsibility." ”

Zhong Ying was puzzled and looked at her in a daze.

Xu Lan raised her head, and her phone rang again. It was still He Chengqian, but Xu Lan's tone was already calm.

"You're right, I really don't want to do anything to her, and I certainly won't do anything to my brother."

"I just want to know something."

"But He Chengqian, I'm very disappointed in you."

Zhong Ying heard Xu Lan say clearly: "You are a coward. What you said at the beginning was that you thought about the He family and made the He family regret it, but in fact, you were just reluctant to live those good lives. Later, when you left me, you were only afraid of me, afraid that one day I would discover your cowardly nature and completely disgusted with you. ”

"But now, I can tell you that I have indeed become disgusted with you. You're not worth my chase at all. ”

Xu Lan hung up the phone, handed the phone to the bodyguard, and looked back to see Zhong Ying's surprised face.

She smiled: "Surprised? ”

"Yes," Zhong Ying said, "I thought...... You love Him. ”

"Loved," Xu Lan said, "or rather, I thought I loved." Her smile was shallow, as if she had broken through the world. At the time, I thought it was love, but now that I think about it, it's just because he was the only one who smiled at me and stretched out his hand. ”

"That's yearning, not love."

Zhong Ying didn't know what to say, and finally said lightly: "It's good that you think clearly." ”

Xu Lan laughed instead: "Are you afraid that I'm just impulsive?" She shook her head and said, "Of course not."

"How much I loved him and how clearly I can see how pathetic I used to be. I was blinded by pain and sorrow, and I could only see him in my eyes, but I didn't know that it wasn't him who was shining, he was just pretending to be shining. He is the moon, not my sun. ”

It seemed that Zhong Ying didn't need to say anything at all, Xu Lan had already said to herself: "When I caught him, I thought my life would become brighter. But no, I just sank into the abyss with him. Behind the brightness he disguised was darkness, and this darkness had nowhere to escape, even against me. ”

"I think about it now, he made me feel like I didn't deserve him, and he made me feel like I had to keep him. My words and deeds are drawn to him like a marionette. Xu Lan stretched out her hand and looked at her fingers, "Even, let yourself be stained with blood." ”

She looked sideways at Zhong Ying, her eyes bright and clear; "So, I'm sorry."

Zhong Ying heard her say, "I'm sorry for all the things I've ever done to you." ”

Zhong Ying stayed there for a long time before finally laughing. "No, it's not necessary." Zhong Ying said, "I also made a lot of profits. Is...... Equivalent exchange is just that. ”

Xu Lan looked at her, her eyebrows curled: "Okay, the material has been compensated to you, and the spiritual one, let my brother compensate you." ”

Zhong Ying was taken aback, but saw Xu Lan suddenly pointing to a place and said, "He's here." ”

Looking up, a figure in the distance was rushing towards this direction.

"You know what? Last night, his professor called him and was going to introduce him to a big guy today. Xu Lan said unhurriedly in his ear, "But now, he is here." ”

She looked at Zhong Ying, and smiled at the corner of her lips: "Are you happy?" ”

Zhong Ying couldn't say what it was like in her heart: "No, I don't know ......"

She looked up at the figure who was walking this way, and she was in a trance.

"My brother...... Xu Lan cried out like an aria, slowly bringing out a smile, "I always thought he didn't understand life, but ...... Actually, it's me who doesn't understand. ”

The voice gradually lowered, and the person who spoke seemed to be about to cry.

"It's okay, I understand now." After a moment, Xu Lan said.

Zhong Ying didn't hear it, just looked at the figure that came over, and couldn't tell her mood. Is it happy? Is it sour? Still sad? Or is it not worth it for him?

She couldn't tell.

Xu Lan looked at her figure and slowly smiled: "Then, leave it to you here, goodbye." ”

She raised her finger, and the bodyguard stepped forward to push the wheelchair away, slowly disappearing from Zhong Ying's sight. Xu Zheming had already chased after her, calling her name loudly and pounced.

Caught off guard, he was hugged into his arms, listening to his worried words explode in his ears, as if something in his heart had finally been broken, and tears were about to flow out of his eyes.

The arms around him were very powerful, and the words in his ears were concerned and worried, Zhong Ying asked sullenly in his arms, "Aren't you in trouble today?" ”

Xu Zheming heard a word, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and said, "Did she do anything to you?" I knew she had always been unmeasured, but I didn't know she was so bold. He hugged her tenderly and asked her if she was okay.

Zhong Ying's eyes were sour when he heard this, he made a mistake, but he didn't mention it, just asked himself if it was okay......

"I'm fine." She said, "What about you? ”

Xu Lan hung him around in this city all day, and he was afraid of what Xu Lan would do to him, so he was tired at this moment.

She looked up at him from his arms, and was looking at him. The two pairs of eyes looked at each other, Xu Zheming clearly saw the concern and distress in her eyes, and his heart suddenly beat faster.

"Aren't you having something to do today?" Zhong Ying asked.

Xu Zheming replied dumbfoundedly: "It's okay, you are more important." ”

Zhong Ying immediately burst into tears.

Xu Zheming was surprised and distressed and asked why, but Zhong Ying didn't want to answer, just buried her head in his chest and cried happily.

The clothes on her chest gradually got wet, and Xu Zheming hugged her, not daring to let go.

"Xu Zheming." He suddenly heard her choke up and call his name, trembling and letting go of his hand to look down at her, and saw her red and swollen eyes.

It shouldn't be beautiful, but in his eyes, it's the most beautiful scenery.

The one who ticked his heart the most.

"Xu Zheming," Zhong Ying called him, looking up at his face. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, but the corners of her lips were turning up.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

Xu Zheming breathed a sigh of relief. He thought something had happened to her, but it turned out to be such a simple question.

"Naturally, it's because I love you." As if he didn't need to think about anything, he blurted out a sentence. After saying it, he himself was stunned for a moment, he could actually say such love words so smoothly.

It's because I've rehearsed it thousands of times in my heart.

Zhong Ying laughed: "Yes...... It's because you love me. ”

She hooked her fingers and made him look down. When he was caught off guard, he gently kissed the corner of his lips.

"So, I love you too."

Joy fell from the sky and exploded all over his body, and the constant outpouring of emotion made him dizzy.

"Yes...... It's true? ”

He asked tentatively, seeing the girl's smiling lips.

So, he was sure, she really said something like that.

It was as if the empty piece of his body had been filled, and an unfamiliar sense of peace of mind and security came up, making him unable to hold back his tears.

"I'm very happy...... I'm glad ......."

Zhong Ying leaned against his chest and laughed widely.

I, too, am very happy.

It's nice to have met you, it's nice to be saved by you, it's nice to be loved by you.

I'm also glad to have met you and to have been saved by you, because ...... I love you so much.

Maybe I'll never tell you, but I always remember that you are the light in my darkness.
