Yan Tao sighed and didn't speak, he didn't expect this matter to be seen by Ma Yulan, at that time, in order to let the two sisters say more things, he deliberately let Ma Yulan watch and interrogate Tian Chunlan next door.

I didn't expect that woman to be so attentive.

He did so on purpose, and it was one of the few times in his police career that he violated the law.

For no other reason, he sympathized with the girl, a girl from a poor family, whose dream of going to college was shattered, and he hoped that his cousin could help him, but he didn't expect to go into the wolf's den and be ruined by her brother-in-law, and all her hopes were dashed.

Moreover, Duan Wenbiao is also dead now, she does not get any compensation, although she also played a certain role in this case and will be tried in the end, but she is also a victim and was deceived by Duan Wenhu and Fan Dali.

He pretended to ignore it, so he could leave the money for her, which could be regarded as compensation.

The attentive Lan Zimeng noticed Yan Tao's sighing action, and she smiled: "Yan Tao, it turns out that you are also a very compassionate person, but unfortunately I found out too late."

"At that time, my heart was full of grievances and anger, so I was very unkind to you, I should owe you an apology, and today I say sorry to you."

Yan Tao shook his head: "It's me who should apologize, it's me who didn't think about the problem clearly, let alone explain it clearly, so I misunderstood, Zimeng, I came to you today, the main purpose is to talk to you about the misunderstanding between us."

"You and Yang Yang are best friends, we are still colleagues, I don't want us to be awkward, and I don't want to bury the relationship between you and Yang Yang for many years, so even if you scold me today, I will accept it."

After listening to Yan Tao's words, Lan Zimeng raised her head and looked at him bravely, and said slowly: "Yan Tao, I want to ask you, why can't you accept me?" Don't fool me with those nice words, be open and honest, only then can we really become friends, you know?

"We are not children anymore, you said that you are a divorced man, and you are older than me, and you are not worthy of me, so you don't want to delay me.

"But now that you've exposed this lie yourself, why can you accept it? She's a year younger than me, aren't you afraid of delaying her? What the hell am I worse than her? ”

Yan Tao smiled bitterly: "Zimeng, I can answer you now, and I promise not to tell you a lie, but do you think it is necessary?" ”

"Yes, I just want to know the truth, I didn't have such strong thoughts in the past, and now I want to know very much." Lan Zimeng said stubbornly.

Yan Tao took a sip of water, as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, I'll tell you the answer, but I don't want you to feel unhappy because of this." ”

Lan Zimeng shook her head: "Even if I know that I can't compare to Yang Yang, I won't blame you." ”

Yan Tao smiled: "It's not a question of who can't compare with whom, can people really be compared like this?" I don't agree, it's just that I feel different.

"Actually, what I said to your master is not a lie, nor is it perfunctory to you, that's what I thought at the time."

Lan Zimeng wanted to interject, but Yan Tao shook his head and said, "Don't interrupt me first, Zimeng, listen to me."

"In my current situation, whether it is for you or for Yang Yang, I am passive, because we have to face objective reality and traditional concepts.

"No one can deny that you are all very good girls, and only boys who are very good in all aspects are worthy of you, note that I am talking about boys, not men, this is a fact that is generally recognized in this society.

"It's not easy for you to understand how hard a failed marriage hits a man, so whether it's low self-esteem or losing the confidence to pursue, in front of you, my first reaction is to retreat.

"This matter, if you are interested, you can ask Yang Yang to verify it in the future, this is not a private matter, I think Yang Yang will also be happy to tell you frankly as a good friend."

"This is the main reason why I can walk with Yang Yang today, and it is also the reason why I am grateful to Yang Yang in addition to love, so I can swear in front of everyone in the world that I will never live up to Yang Yang's love for me."

Lan Zimeng was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Maybe it's really my fault, I missed ......"

Yan Tao smiled: "I don't think it's a matter of right or wrong, I think it's fate, timing, and providence, although I'm an atheist, but sometimes I believe that there really seems to be a kind of domination in the underworld, which we can't compete with." ”

Lan Zimeng didn't speak, and Yan Tao looked at her silently.

After a while, Lan Zimeng seemed to have just woken up, shook her head and said, "Well, I have the right to believe the first reason you said, so what else?" Can't you see that I didn't reject you at that time?

"I played a child's temper with you and deliberately snubbed you, which means that I still care about you, and girls still have to be at least reserved, don't you understand?"

Yan Tao shook his head: "If I don't understand your mind at all, it's not objective, I'm from the past, I can feel how much, but to be honest, even before today, when I asked the same question as Yang Yang and you, I couldn't give an accurate answer."

"Why didn't I take the initiative, you're so good, to put it mildly, even if you try and get rejected?"

"There is only one reason, because of my first unsuccessful marriage, which directly led to me not being able to accept a person who has no feelings for the police and the police career, because I can no longer harm myself and others, and I can't understand my career, it is difficult to accept me as a person, even if they barely come together now, he will inevitably repeat the mistakes of the past."

After saying the words that pressed on the bottom of his heart in one breath, Yan Tao felt a burst of relief, no matter what the result was, he was honest, if Lan Zimeng couldn't forgive him, he would have a clear conscience.

Lan Zimeng was stunned and muttered, "This is the reason?" Can you be sure you really think so? ”

Yan Tao grinned: "Zimeng, what else do I need to lie about now?" And that's what I decided to be open and honest with you with a lot of determination.

"Again, I hope we can still be friends, and I hope you can become a friend forever, the past is gone, we should all face the future!"
