They walked in the rain for a long time, and when they came to Xiao Yuchen's apartment, the rain had stopped.

Xiao Yuchen threw a towel for him to dry: "You go and sit on the sofa for a while, I have something for you." ”

Ye Lingchuan took the towel with a red face, but he was reluctant to use it to wipe the rain on his body, so he only buried his face in it and gently sniffed the smell left on it by Xiao Yuchen.

When Xiao Yuchen came back, he really had one more thing in his hand.

"This is ......" Ye Lingchuan looked at the bottle in her hand in surprise, "Didn't you throw it away?" ”

"I lied to you," Xiao Yuchen said lightly, "I went to the balcony that day and found that it had grown something like this, so I hid it for fear that you would be disappointed." ”

Only then did Ye Lingchuan notice that the soil in the bottle had grown green plants, but it was not the jade bud of a rose, but a small cactus covered with thorns.

Probably because the people in the drama club were greedy for cheapness, and they made a mistake when they shipped the discounted items they bought online, he sighed helplessly.

His disappointment was all seen by Xiao Yuchen, and her eyes darkened: "Ye Lingchuan, do you know why you are disappointed?" Because your expectation is so good, you work so hard to take care of it, give it so much love and warmth, expect it to bloom into beautiful flowers to repay you, and get this result. It's just a small plant, and you're so disappointed, what about people's words? ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Lingchuan's eyes, but he didn't know what to say.

Xiao Yuchen smiled sadly: "You said you like me and want me to be your family." Maybe you're serious, because you're so kind, kind enough to give me all your warmth. But what to do, I am a cold and heartless person by nature, just like this cactus, no matter how much love and warmth you give me, I will not be able to repay you at all. I'm not the family you want, I can't give you warmth, dependence, or anything, and in the end all you get is these thorns that will hurt you. I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to disappoint you in the future than you are now, so ...... Please give up on me. ”

She has been abandoned many times in her life, and she doesn't even remember herself, but this is the first time she has taken the initiative to ask the other party to give up on herself. Because only the kindness of this person made her unbearable to let him end up only hurting.

Ye Lingchuan was silent for a long time holding the bottle, Xiao Yuchen thought that he would protest a few words, but he laughed with relief.

"It's very similar," he said, removing the glass cover and observing the cactus closely, "The cold shell, covered in thorns, must have hurt if it was pierced." ”

Xiao Xuanchen's body trembled slightly, although she offered to ask him to give up herself, his deliberate humiliation still made her unstoppably sad.

"But I'm not afraid."

In the next second, Ye Lingchuan kissed the cactus in her shocked gaze, the sharp thorns of the plant pierced his lips, and the crimson blood slowly dripped down the corners of his mouth, but he didn't even frown.
