Shen Xiaotang's silence ruined all the calmness that Ye Chenmeng had been piling up.

"Maybe I shouldn't ask you if you've been to Xicheng, I should ask if you've been to the Seoul villa, if you've been to Xi Weiguo, right?"

She said this with a smile on her face, but the smile did not hit the bottom of her eyes, more like self-deprecation.

Shen Xiaotang didn't deny it, but nodded: "I did go to Xi Weiguo yesterday afternoon. ”

"Why do you want to go to Xi Weiguo? Or...... Why did Xi Weiguo take Yuan Sha abroad immediately after you looked for Xi Weiguo? Why did you suddenly appear in my life and be so clear about my preferences? Why have you been so good to me all the time and don't ask for anything in return? All this, when can you tell me, why? ”

She felt as if she had been buried in the sand, leaving only one nose, and she had trouble breathing, and she couldn't see the truth clearly, but she couldn't spare her hands to remove the sand from her eyes. Like a fool who can't do anything.

Shen Xiaotang's thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his eyes were dark and deep: "What if I say that these are my secrets all along?" If I said that you might change your mind after knowing the truth, would you still be so determined to know? ”

Ye Chenmeng's gaze was very sure, and his raised little face was full of stubbornness.

Shen Xiaotang grabbed her wrist and grabbed it towards the café opposite, even ignoring whether she would hurt.

I don't know if the people in the café know Shen Xiaotang, or because the anger emanating from Shen Xiaotang's body at this moment makes people feel too cold, all in all, he dragged Ye Chenmeng into the box on the way, and no one dared to stop him.

He pulled her to the edge of the couch and sat down, his bright eyes not really visible in the dark box.

Feeling the strong aura emanating from the man's body, Ye Chenmeng's apricot eyes were full of determination: "Who are you?" ”

Such a Tang Tang is so strange......

Shen Xiao sat down opposite her with some helplessness, and slowly approached her and said, "Who do you think I am?" ”

"I don't know, I think I know, I know, but it's not what I think. So in the end, even you and I can't be trusted, can we? Her eyes were red, and she thought she was wearing thick armor, but she didn't think she was so weak.

Shen Xiaotang straightened her shoulders and looked into her eyes and said, "I did go to find Xi Weiguo, but I didn't see Xi Weiguo himself at all." I went to the Seoul villa in the morning, but you told me that he only took his wife abroad in the afternoon, how could that be? When I went over, the maid clearly told me that they had gone to Hainan for a vacation! ”

"Impossible, Lan Er and I adjusted the surveillance, and personally saw that you entered the villa at about ten o'clock in the morning for a long time before coming out, and after you left, they packed their luggage and hurried out of the villa!" Ye Chenmeng's categorical tone made Shen Xiaotang also unbelievable.

"They were already gone when I arrived at the Seoul villa, and the reason why I stayed at the villa for so long was because I visited the place where they lived and confirmed that Xi Weiguo was indeed staying at the Seoul villa." Shen Xiaotang's explanation was sincere and affirmative.

Ye Chen's eyes locked on Shen Xiaotang's eyes: "Then tell me why you want to go to Xi Weiguo?" ”

"Do you believe what I say?"

"Then you speak first!"

"......" Because of this incident, Chenchen's trust in him no longer exists?

"The reason why I am looking for Xi Weiguo is because I know that you have been looking for him. I asked Qi Huan to investigate all the time, and it was not until recently that I confirmed that Xi Weiguo was in Xicheng, and I was afraid that I would be disappointed if you directly told you that you could not find anyone when you went, so I planned to go over and confirm it in person. Do you believe that? Shen Xiaotang's sincere gaze stared at Ye Chenmeng intently.

Ye Chenmeng looked directly into his eyes and looked at each other: "Aren't you really Xi Jianchen?" ”

"Xi Jianchen?" Shen Xiaotang looked at Ye Chenmeng unexpectedly, surprised: "Why do you think so?" Isn't Xi Jianchen already dead? ”

He's dead......

Maybe she hadn't seen his body, so she always thought he was or, right?

"If you're not him, why do you know my preferences so well? Why is it so good for me? ”

"Because I love you!" He suddenly blurted out a loud voice that seemed to scare her.

She leaned more and more towards the corner of the couch, the way she used to do when she was insecure, hiding herself or hiding in the corner.

He slowed his voice and cautiously approached her and said, "Dust, because I love you, I know all your preferences. I didn't ask for anything in return, because I knew you didn't love me, so my love was a burden to you, so I forced myself and tried to convince myself that you weren't important...... Do you understand? ”

The sentence 'Do you understand' was like a feather smashed on the bottom of Ye Chenmeng's heart, it didn't weigh much, but it hurt suddenly......

Her teary eyes looked at him quietly, listening to his helpless and powerless tone to her, "Do you know where we first met? ”

Ye Chenmeng's voice twitched, and said, "...... at the gate of Judexuan"

He shook his head and corrected her with a helpless smile: "The first time we met was at Forgotten Water Lake. ”

Ye Chenmeng's brows furrowed shallowly.

Forgotten Lake?

She only remembers that when she was in junior high school, there was a lake in the school called Forgotten Water Lake. Is Tang Tang referring to the artificial lake in junior high school?

Shen Xiaotang continued: "That was the first time I saw you. Dressed in a long black dress, you are concentrating on playing with a violin. You sit on the edge of your skirt, and your black skirt is completely soaked by the lake. It's just that you were too focused, I just walked behind you to remind you, but I didn't expect to be so scared that you fell directly into the artificial lake. I took off my clothes and tried to go down to save you, but I saw a figure falling into the lake faster than me, do you remember? ”

Ye Chenmeng remembered this incident that it was the first semester of her second year of junior high school. It's just that in her memory, there is no shadow of Shen Xiaotang.

The Ye family has a good background, and Qin Hailian helped her sign up for an interest class to learn the piano since she was a child. At that time, she played Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake", and after practicing for a long time, she couldn't pass the test, so she took advantage of the lunch break to go to the Lethe Lake behind the school to practice.

But I don't know which one killed a thousand knives and pushed her! At least at that time, Ye Chenmeng's memory was like this.

Then she fell into the lake in late autumn, and in the end, it was Xi Jianchen who arrived temporarily and jumped into the lake to rescue her.

She always thought that the story was like this, until Shen Xiaotang continued: "Later, I found out your name, my father brought me a box of handmade chocolates from Italy, and I heard that girls like to eat it." I took the chocolate and was going to apologize to you. You're traveling abroad with your parents. ”

"So the box at my door melted away...... What kind of chocolate did you put down? Ye Chenmeng's memories were like a black box that had been opened for a moment. All of them have sprung up.

Later, she thought that the box of chocolates was used by Xi Jianchen to tease her on purpose, so she took advantage of Xi Jianchen's sleep to make a fool of him......

Shen Xiaotang smiled and said, "Later, you went back to school, but I had to immigrate to the United States because of family reasons. I wrote you a letter when I left and put it in the mailbox in front of your house, and I thought you would at least get back to me when you checked the letter. I even left my address and contact information, but I waited in the United States for two years and didn't hear from you. ”

Ye Chenmeng had mixed feelings in his heart: "I moved...... At that time, my parents quarreled and quarreled about divorce because of emotional problems, my parents separated, and I moved away with my mother. I think it was probably because of the cold government at that time! Later, in order not to affect my college entrance examination, my parents moved back, and at that time, the mailbox at the door was changed several times, and the letter, I'm sorry Tang Tang, I didn't receive ......"

Shen Xiaotang said without regret: "Later, I returned to China when I was eighteen years old. I spent five years abroad thinking about how important you really are to me. So as soon as I returned home, I made up my mind to catch you. At that time, you had just started college, and I was afraid that I would frighten you, so I planned a unique chance encounter behind you every day, and I paid attention to you for a month. When I finally arranged to appear in front of you, you agreed to be Xi Jianchen's girlfriend in front of the whole school. You probably don't know how sweet the smile was at that time......"

Everything and every word that Shen Xiaotang said was like a scar engraved in Ye Chenmeng's heart.

When she was in her second year of junior high school, Shen Xiaotang should have been her first year of junior high school.

She was fourteen and he was thirteen......

From the age of thirteen to Shen Xiaotang is now twenty-eight years old, fifteen years, he has put himself in his heart, a full fifteen years!

This is a number that Ye Chen can't even dream of......

"I'm sorry, Tang Tang, I'm sorry, I'm ......"

"You're not wrong, what are you doing to apologize? I'm willing, Dusty, and the only thing I've regretted in the past fifteen years is that I didn't tell you I liked you sooner. I sometimes wonder if I had known you earlier, would it be me who is standing next to you? Had I confessed to you earlier, I wouldn't have stayed by your side in this way......"

He loved her for fifteen years and guarded her for fifteen years.

It's a pity that the person who will be by her side every day in the future is not him......

He said: "Later, Xi Jianchen passed away, and I thought about being by your side, but I was afraid that suddenly appearing would frighten you. You are so fragile, but you pretend to be so strong in front of everyone, I want to be a shoulder you can lean on, I want to give you time to forget him.

So I thought I would be able to enter your life if I showed up at the right time, so I interviewed the staff of the magazine to let you know me.

But you didn't know that you had already met Lan Lichuan at the right time, the man who made you laugh and make you cry. I stayed by your side, thinking that if I could make you laugh, I would make you like me. But it wasn't until later that I found out that the people who can make you laugh are only the people who like you, and the ones who can make you cry are the ones you really love.

That's how I missed you, Dust, that's how I missed you......"
