Chapter 112: The Old Man
When I arrived at Sara's house, Mr. Bader was not there, and I was taken to the door of her bedroom by the maid, and I tapped on it, but no one answered in the silence.
Luckily, the door was unlocked when the handle was turned down.
When I stepped into the house, my vision could not adjust to the dim tones of the room, and the heavy curtains kept the sunlight in the shut-in.
Sara was half-sitting on the bed, her gaze fixed on a spot in the void, and she looked pale.
I walked over to the window, half-opened the curtains, and turned to look at Sara, who looked at me too, but lowered her eyelids.
I sat on the edge of her bed, and my eyes swept over a bowl of untouched rice porridge on the bedside table, "The doctor said that you have low blood sugar before you suddenly faint, how can you do without eating?" β
She was silent, not even reacting.
I sighed silently, and I didn't listen to her, "So, what about Ivy?" Have you looked for her? β
At the mention of Ivy, she finally got a little angry, but she only buried her head in it, and after a long time, she slowly spoke, "It's useless, she said firmly...... No one will accept us, and she doesn't want to go on...... So, she has agreed to the marriage arranged by her parents......" At this, Sara's eyes flickered, and tears fell down.
"Sara......" I shook her hand, and the instant chill went straight to the bottom of my heart.
"yes, no one accepted us," Sara said to herself, tears streaming down her eyes, "my dad, her parents...... Not a single one ......."
"Sara, don't do that, it's not like there's no room for change." I persuaded.
"Round? How to turn around? Sara smiled wryly, not showing any confidence.
"There's always a turn for the better until the last minute. Most importantly, she still loves you. "My hands clenched.
"Love if it works. We wouldn't be where we are today. Sara took a deep breath, the corners of her lips curled without a smile. Perhaps, I should also find a man to marry, and from now on, I will marry and teach children......"
Sara like this made my heart ache for a while, and I straightened up, "I'm going to talk to her." β
"It's useless, I'm already dead...... she said quietly behind me, "Love that is destined to have no result should have been cut off in time, not a sentence." Is it better to call long pain than short pain? β
βSaraοΌβ I turned around angrily, incredulous, "Okay, long pain is better than short pain, right?" So what was your previous struggle? What is the value of hard work? You once said that Ivy gave up lightly because he didn't care about you, he didn't care about love, I don't think you paid attention to your love at all, I knew that you were such a cowardly, timid, and easily give up person, that big plan, I shouldn't have helped you! β
She looked up sharply, her dull eyes staring at me.
Such fierce words rushed out of my mouth, and I suddenly regretted it. Today's emotions are too volatile, why is it that it makes me so upset?
"I'm cowardly......" Sara's trembling voice was hoarse, and it sounded unbearable. Ruori, are you brave? β
Suddenly, I was stunned.
"You don't even dare to admit who you like, Ruori? Furcummings. Those who dare not face their hearts are cowardly......" she said very calmly. But the temperature of my whole body was instantly withdrawn.
I stared at her, and she looked back at me. I never thought that for a moment, she and I would develop to the point where the two sides of this kind of aura confrontation were deadlocked, and there was a faint chill in the eyes of each other.
What she said may be true, because only the facts that hit the heart can make me so uncomfortable.
I nodded slowly, the corners of my mouth pulling a smile deeper and deeper, until the smile was almost cold, "Well said." β
Thinking that my face must be ugly, as soon as the words fell, I saw a fleeting unbearability in her eyes, but we were all too stubborn, and I stubbornly refused to admit that her words hit my heart, and she stubbornly refused to admit that she regretted hurting me.
I turned around and walked resolutely.
But the moment my hand touched the doorknob, something still stopped me.
I was silent for a moment, turned my back to her, and indifferently threw down a sentence: "If it's true love, you will hold me up until the last moment." β
Say goodbye and leave.

The night seemed like an instant.
I couldn't sleep either, but before dawn I pushed open the door of my house, intending to go out for a walk to relax my sleepless and swollen head, and to get rid of some disorganized thoughts by the way.
However, when the door opened, I was stunned by the figure outside the door.
Sara crouched in the corner of the doorway, clasping her knees with her hands, her figure lonely like a pet abandoned by her owner on the side of the road, she looked up at me with a timidly look in her eyes.
"Ruori ......" Before I could react, she pounced on me and hugged me, buried her head in my neck, and said sullenly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry ......"
"You...... Already here? Guarding the door all the time? So why not knock on the door? "Her body was very cold, and it was obvious that she had been staying for a long time, and I hugged her tightly, and I couldn't bear it, so I questioned it urgently.
"Hmm." She smiled, "I couldn't sleep last night, so I couldn't help but come over, I didn't have to wait long...... Ruori, will you forgive me? She looked at me with a sincere and uncertain look in her eyes.
I laughed, "How could I really blame you?" What's more, you were in a bad mood yesterday, and I shouldn't have spoken so heavily to stimulate you...... It's just ......"
"Don't worry." Sara saw what I meant and immediately smiled, "For my love, I will fight until the last moment." β
"That's right." I tapped my finger on her forehead and winked at her, "So, let's go in and talk about the next big plan." β
"Okay."
As soon as the words fell, a silver-gray sports car pierced the faint morning light and galloped forward.
The car stopped in front of us, and Si Tianzhe walked down, with a little hurry.
"Why did you come here so early?" I wondered, it was a little unnatural to see him.
"Just ......," he glanced at Sara and turned to me, "you're all here." I found something. β
I noticed a stack of papers in his hand, and as soon as my question appeared, I listened to him explain: "The guy who is about to marry Ivy, here are the details about him." β
"Oh?" I raised my eyebrows, and there was no shortage of appreciation.
-- Know yourself and know your opponent. At all times, he is always so meticulous and meticulous in his work.
"More than that." He picked the corners of his lips and smiled meaningfully, "That person is not an ordinary person. β
As he became more and more curious, I couldn't help asking, "Who is it?" β
He smiled deeply, and his voice raised a slight sense of mystery, "Old man." (To be continued......)
