Chapter 29: Love
Xie Ruoni's words made Dong Xie's brain go blank in an instant.
After a full five seconds, he subconsciously grabbed a glass of water on the table, took a sip, calmed down, and asked, "Do you know ...... Ah Ning?"
"The day before we parted, remember?"
"I remember it very well. You and I were on the phone that day to discuss the renovation plan for the wedding room. β
Xie Ruoni supported her chin, and after being silent for a long time, she said, "You said that you would go to the new house to communicate with the renovation team in the evening." So, I went too. As a result, your aunt happened to be there at that time. When I walked to the door, because the renovation crew was coming in and out at that time, the door was wide open, and I heard you talking to your aunt. β
Dong Xie's aunt has a good relationship with his mother, so he is about to get married, and his aunt is also very concerned and came to see the decoration of his wedding room. As a result, I happened to meet Dong Xie.
Then......
"Did you hear that?" Dong Xie suddenly realized, he finally understood the reason why Xie Ruoni broke up with him.
"At that time, Ah Ning was going to study abroad, and your aunt said that she hoped that you would keep a little distance from Ah Ning after marriage, after all, you are not brothers and sisters. Ah Ning is not your own sister, and you have known it a long time ago. When I met you in college, every time you mentioned your sister, your eyes would be like ......"
Speaking of this, Xie Ruoni tilted her head, and then said, "Shining like a jewel. At that time, I just thought that you were very fond of my sister. And then I found that every time you look at Ah Ning's eyes, it seems to be more gentle and full of love that cannot be concealed than looking at me. If it weren't your own sister, I would really think you were mentally cheating. Until I knew that Ah Ning was not your own sister, I understood......"
Dong Xie was horrified, his eyes ...... He looked at Ah Ning's eyes, is it like this?
Although his cousin had also said to himself that he had been vaguely aware of it, he was very resistant to this emotion. The relationship between him and Ah Ning can only be brother and sister, although there is no blood relationship, but this is the family ethical relationship that the two have maintained since childhood. However, is his relationship really so obvious that he has always been seen by his original fiancΓ©e?
"I thought about it for a long time that night." Xie Ruoni said this, and her voice became sonorous: "What I pursue is a very pure love, and I can't allow my husband to have someone else's place in his heart." I know that for you, although I am your first love, but for you, I am more of a suitable marriage partner, and I also believe that you will be loyal to your marriage after marriage, but your feelings for Ah Ning will never be pure brother and sister feelings. β
Dong Xie was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
"What doesn't exactly belong to me, I'd rather not. So, after thinking about it for a night, I finally decided to let it go. One day, you will realize that the person you really love the most is not me, but Ah Ning. For you, Ah Ning is an unsuitable marriage partner to the extreme, your family is unlikely to agree, she herself knows the truth and is more likely to be terrified and unacceptable, relatives and friends around you may give you strange eyes, your stepmother's family, your biological father's and mother's family, the three families will fall into huge chaos, and the incident of your stepmother Hongxing coming out of the wall will also torture everyone, especially Ah Ning. So you've been suppressing this emotion with reason, you know, it's impossible. However, this does not mean that you have no feelings for Ah Ning for men and women. β
Dong Xie's lips pursed, he wanted to say that he had no such feelings for Ah Ning, but he couldn't say anything. What his cousin said before was also in his mind.
"Wait......" he suddenly understood, "Cousin, have you told my cousin about this?" β
"Yes......" Xie Ruoni nodded, "Among the relatives of your generation, except for Ah Ning, your cousin and I have the best relationship." I called your cousin that night, and I thought your aunt and your uncle knew, so your cousin should know too. I didn't expect her to know nothing...... As a result, we chatted for one night. β
Only then did Dong Xie understand how his cousin knew about this! It's been two years, and she hasn't told herself!
"Your cousin persuaded me for a long time, but I decided to ...... Break up with you. I also told her not to tell anyone that I knew about it. After all, I don't want anyone else to know the real reason for our breakup. It was painful to make the decision, but I still have no regrets. Now, is Ah Ning still just a sister to you? β
At this moment, melodious music began to reverberate in the wedding hall. The wedding should be about to begin.
But Dong Xie didn't have any intention to stay here anymore.
"Dong Xie, two years have passed, and I have let go. The advice I want to give you is...... There is no truth to love, but if it's just 'suitable' and not 'love', you will regret it one day. I've never seen you look at me so affectionately as you look at A-Ning...... You may not even realize it, but you can't really deceive yourself. β
Dong Xie picked up the glass of water on the table again, and just took a sip, when suddenly Qin Ziyuanxin's WeChat voice came to his mobile phone. He turned his voice into text and looked at it, Qin Ziyuan said, the time was advanced again, and the location, which was very close to this hotel, was in a nearby cafΓ©.
"Thank you for telling me this." Dong Xie quickly stood up and said, "I'...... Went first. β
He strode out of the wedding hall, and several of his classmates who were smoking were stunned.
"Dong Xie, what's wrong?"
"You're leaving?"
"Hey, hey, what's going on? I'm waiting for the people who eat melons to see if you will break the mirror and reunite??? β
"Go, what do you eat melons, the rain girl has no melons!"
Dong Xie swallowed a mouthful of saliva at this time and said, "I have some things, so I won't attend the wedding banquet." β
Then, with the stunned eyes of a crowd of people, he rushed out of the hotel.
It's not too far from Cafe Road, just a short walk. While striding forward, he quickly took out his mobile phone and called Ah Ning in China. Although Qin Ziyuan sent someone to take care of her, he did not confiscate the mobile phone.
The phone rang just once, and it was connected.
"Brother? How are you? Already in Hawaii for a wedding? β
After Dong Xie answered the phone, he didn't know what to say. However, what Xie Ruoni said just now echoed in his mind.
Now that I think about it, she wasn't wrong at all. For Xie Ruoni, at that time, she was indeed thinking more about a very suitable marriage partner, with a gentle and virtuous personality, knowing how to cook good dishes, always being empathetic, and looking at money very lightly. She's a good fit for herself...... But for her, is it really unforgettable love? Really...... Does she have to do it?
Obviously, Dong Xie finally came to the conclusion that it was not. Virtuous, gentle, empathetic, and good-looking...... People who are equally compatible with these conditions are equally suitable for themselves. She is not so irreplaceable, but when she thinks of Ah Ning, it is completely different. Ah Ning is irreplaceable, whenever he thinks that she may die in the blood of the apartment, his heart is like a knife, and he can't wait to replace him. But in the past, he has always convinced himself that it is just his brother's feelings for his sister.
Can he and Ah Ning really survive the blood word ten times? From a rational point of view, Dong Xie is very clear, it is difficult! Hard! Can you survive the first half of the year, can you survive this year...... It's all a problem.
So......
"Ah Ning, I miss you very much."
After a long time, Dong Xie said this sentence.
"Brother? What happened to you? Have you seen Seroni? β
"I'll be back soon. Soon...... Will be back. β
"Are you alright? Brother, why is your voice so strange! Brother, come back soon! You come back, I'll make you your favorite filet mignon, and the steak I made you said was the best. At the apartment, I can get authentic Australian Wagyu beef ingredients, and I have long wanted to try it. β
"Then we'll make an appointment." Dong Xie continued to walk briskly, he hoped to see Fang Han soon, he wanted to learn more experience from this person who had completed the Ten Blood Characters, "Okay, well, three mature!" β
ββ¦β¦ Brother, can you eat it so bloody? β
"I like it......"
"Okay, I'll do it for you when you come back!" 8)
