Unless—

For a while, countless memories all came back like a tide, and the girl's mind kept flashing back to the news that seemed unimportant but was suspicious at this moment when she arranged for someone to look for Ye Tian.

My heart began to tremble violently.

If there were others present at this time, they would be surprised and shocked to find that at this moment, Du Jiaojiao's face suddenly became extremely pale, and she completely lost her blood.

But fortunately, through the steaming white mist wafting out of the wonton bowl, Ye Tian, who was already a little absent-minded, didn't notice the change in the expression on the girl's face.

It's just that he didn't get a response for a long time, and he finally looked at Du Jiaojiao again:

"Jiaojiao?"

"Huh?" The girl suddenly came back to her senses, but she was still a little distracted, and her voice seemed to tremble slightly.

Ye Tian still didn't notice this, but looked at the girl fixedly, and said:

"When I was eating before, I asked Liu Wen."

But she didn't say anything.

"I don't know what's going on."

"You ......"

"You know what?"

Speaking of this, someone paused, looked down at the bowl of ravioli, which had barely touched in front of him, and slowly spoke:

"After all, when you were looking for me, you should have also learned about Xia Wutong, and when you found me, you knew about Xia Wutong."

Outside the wonton shop.

The muffled thunder began in the clouds.

The night rain, which had only stopped for a short time, fell again.

At the same time, at Tianhe Airport on the outskirts of Wucheng, a plane flying to Provence, France, rose off the ground and disappeared into the night sky with the roar of its engines.

It started to rain outside the store.

The sound of the rain gradually changed from inaudible to loud and loud, and the owner of the wonton shop hurriedly ran outside the store to bring back some of the tables and chairs that had been placed outside, and at this time the raindrops had fallen on the ground and splashed clusters of water.

Inside, the atmosphere is very quiet.

"Isn't it, is there anything else that everyone is hiding from me."

Ye Tian, who was sitting at the table, lowered his head as if he was looking intently at the bowl of wontons in front of him, and then slowly asked almost word by word.

The tone seemed flat.

Without compunction.

There wasn't even the slightest hint of sharp questioning.

But this moment ......

As the only listener and the person being questioned, Du Jiaojiao couldn't help but tremble slightly.

At this moment, countless thoughts and pictures almost flashed through the girl's mind.

(Ye Tian...... ）

(I also went to ask Liu Wen.) ）

She didn't have the slightest doubt that Liu Wen, as Xia Wutong's hardcore best friend, definitely knew the truth about Wutong, and those details that she didn't pay attention to in the past, coupled with Ye Tian's description at the moment, became more and more a complete story line in her mind.

Everything......

All seem to lead to a certain conclusion.

It is related to sycamore.

It's definitely not optimistic.

And at this moment, someone in front of him has clearly noticed something, so he will ask such a question again in front of her, which can only show that the doubts that may have been accumulated in the former's heart for a long time have finally reached an irrepressible level.

Du Jiaojiao opened her mouth, almost subconsciously wanting to tell Ye Tianhe in front of her all the truths she had guessed.

But the next moment.

Countless thoughts suddenly flashed through her mind—

What if her guess was wrong?

What if the information she learned wasn't entirely right?

If........

If she really said her guess at the moment, then ......

If something really happened, how should she face Xia Wutong in the future?

How should she face Zhang Xin and Wang Meng, who have become friends?

And most importantly, how should she face herself?

Everything flashed through the girl's mind as if it were flashing through the light of light.

Time returns to the present moment.

Ye Tian, who was sitting opposite Du Jiaojiao, finally raised his head slowly, staring at the girl with his eyes, waiting for an answer.

And Du Jiaojiao also raised her head.

Met someone's gaze.

Almost with her best efforts to forcibly control her emotions, the girl shook her head resolutely and firmly with a calm and calm appearance that she had never had:

"Nope."

"I don't know."

"When I was looking for you, among the messages that were fed back to me, only Xia Wutong was mentioned, and there was no other news."

……

When such words were spoken, even Du Jiaojiao herself was a little surprised and incredulous at this moment.

Because she didn't expect such calm and calm words to come out of her mouth so calmly and with such an unchanging expression.

And.

is still doing something that may be deceiving Ye Tian.

To the boy she least wanted to deceive.

But she had to lie, although it may not be a lie, but she really can't afford the consequences.

And she knew too well that if she told Ye Tian her guess at this moment, what kind of violent shock and blow the latter would be, and what kind of mood would it be.

......

Because you like someone too much, and try to do everything you can not want the other person to be hurt, such a reason may be worthy of forgiveness and understanding in any situation.

In fact, Du Jiaojiao at this moment didn't care about her deception and concealment at all, if she was discovered by Ye Tian in the future, whether she would be able to get the other party's understanding.

Today's girls are full of only one firm thought, that is, they must not be hurt by telling someone the truth that they have guessed that there is a 99% chance at this time.

……

The two looked at each other for an unknown amount of time.

Finally, Ye Tian retracted his gaze and lowered his head again:

"Hmm."

"Got it."

The voice was a little muffled, revealing an unstoppable tiredness that was easily noticeable.

Du Jiaojiao bit her lip, looked at Ye Tian, who had become a little lost again, and felt unspeakably distressed in her heart, if she could, she really wanted to hug the boy she liked in front of her and tell everything the other party wanted to know, but reason made her control such an impulse, and when she spoke again, she just comforted more gently:

"Ye Tian, don't worry."

"Sycamore, she's sure...... It's just that she was too busy to see the message you sent, or maybe she was in class at the time, and it was inconvenient to answer the phone. ”

"After all, the time zone over there is different from ours."

"Wait."

"Wait a little longer and there will be an echo."

However, this kind of comfort stayed in words at this moment, but it still seemed pale and weak, Ye Tian heard it, and the corners of his mouth hooked a slightly bitter arc, barely squeezing out a smile:

"Hmm."

Then he paused: "Have you eaten well, then let's go." ”
