Chapter 53: Contradictions

On Chinese New Year's Eve, there was a heavy snowfall, and the ground was covered with thick snow.

Outside, it was completely dark, and the fire burning in the fireplace inside the house was blazing with a bright yellow light.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Li Lan and Ye Zi sat on the carpet and watched the Spring Festival Gala while eating melon seeds.

Ye Zi watched the TV absentmindedly, his mind had already flown away, and he kept checking the time with his mobile phone.

It was just nine o'clock, an hour before the appointed time, and the leaves were like a child full of excitement and throbbing like a child full of excitement and excitement.

Seeing her fidgeting appearance, Li Lan smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, the female university is not staying!"

Ye Zi was a little shy by Li Lan's smile, and bowed his head to justify: "No!"

Ye Ziqiang pretended to be calm, watched TV seriously for a while, her mind drifted away again, and she was in a trance until nine forty, and she finally couldn't help but get up and take the cake and gifts and go out.

"Mom, I'm out."

Li Lan waved her hand in disgust, and whispered, "Unpromising girl, do you like it so much?"

Ye Zi went out and was startled by Cheng Zhen in front of the courtyard gate, she didn't expect Cheng Zhen to arrive early, but she didn't ask her to go downstairs.

Cheng Zhen leaned crookedly against the courtyard wall, holding a lollipop in his mouth, staring into the distance, as if he was in some kind of contemplation.

For Cheng Zhen, Ye Zi has figured out a rule, he will only be lazy and lazy with a lollipop when he is irritable.

When calling these days, Ye Zi could feel that Cheng Zhen had something pressing on her heart, and it was something she didn't want to tell her.

This realization caused the leaf to fall into a momentary loss.

But nothing matters tonight, she just wants to accompany Cheng Zhen for a birthday that is not lonely, and a gorgeous Chinese New Year's Eve.

Ye Zi reconciled his emotions, with a smile on his face, and quietly walked to Cheng Zhen's side with cat steps, and gently kicked his toes with his foot.

Ye Zi kicked a few times, and Cheng Zhen seemed to come back from a trance and looked at her in a daze.

Through the light of the street lamp, Ye Zi found that after not seeing him for a few days, Cheng Zhen had lost a lot of weight, his face was still a little haggard, and there was a trace of red blood under his eyes.

Cheng Zhen smiled at Ye Zi and said softly, "It's down."

In an instant, many emotions surged through Ye Zi's heart, but it was always distress that prevailed.

Her heart was sour, her throat was stuck, and she said slowly, "Well, I'm here for you."

Ye Zi swept the snow on the ground a few times with his toes, lowered his head to hide his emotions, and raised his head to Cheng Zhen with a bright smile, "Happy birthday, Brother Cheng." Happy New Year, Brother Cheng. Double happy, Brother Cheng. ”

At first glance, Cheng Zhen was a little surprised when he heard Ye Zi's blessing, he had long forgotten about that today was his birthday, perhaps deliberately forgetting, and forgetting those bad memories by the way.

The sudden birthday wishes, Cheng Zhen's heart surged with a hot current, and the irritability and exhaustion of the past few days were swept away.

He tossed the lollipop stick into the trash and replied with a smile, "Thank you."

Ye Zi tilted his head and smiled, "How can you just say thank you." Brother Cheng, I suddenly want to wind up the circle of friends, is it okay? ”

Cheng Zhen was stunned for a moment before he understood what Ye Zi was talking about, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

In the past, even if others knew about their relationship, as long as they didn't say it publicly, others wouldn't say it openly. But as long as it's made public, their affairs will become something that others can talk about with confidence, and if one day they really don't get together, maybe Ye Zi will suffer a lot of useless discussions and troubles.

Cheng Zhen's hesitation and silence made Ye Zi breathe a sigh of relief in his heart. She decided, just one time, that she was going to be a wayward child.

Ye Zi stepped in front of Cheng Zhen in a few steps, put his toes against his, and took out his mobile phone to take a few pictures of them on their toes.

Ye Zi chose the most beautiful picture with the word "we", and posted a public circle of friends.

There are too many people holding and grabbing red envelopes, but there is a string of comments below more than ten seconds.

Squad leader: "Damn, you're feeding the dog food again!! But it doesn't matter, I'll be able to feed it later!! ”

Gu Zhao: "......"

School Committee: "The shoes are Cheng Zhen's, I'll just say that something is wrong with you two!" Blessings, blessings! ”

"Blessing plus two!"

"Blessing plus three!"

……

Looking at this series of replies, Ye Zi glanced at Cheng Zhen a few times with a weak heart, and said weakly: "Brother Cheng, take a look at my circle of friends, I guess I did something that you are not happy about."

Cheng Zhen came back to her senses, looked at Ye Zi, her dodgy gaze, cautious appearance, and her heart was sour, "No, I will be happy what you do." ”

"No, you take a look at the circle of friends first." Ye Zi resolutely emphasized.

Cheng Zhen took out his mobile phone with some confusion, clicked on WeChat, and saw the circle of friends sent by Ye Zi.

The mind went blank and stopped thinking.

Ye Zi observed Cheng Zhen's reaction very nervously, and when he saw his pursed lips and slightly frowning brows, his heart tightened again.

Ye Zi held his breath and explained: "I don't have to let our relationship be known, I'm just a little angry because you don't ...... Forget it, I was just impulsive. ”

Speaking of the voice of the leaf in the back, it was dyed with a thick crying tone, "Forget it, I deleted it, and then I will rewind the circle of friends to explain, just say it's a joke." ”

"What do you explain? Say we're not together? Cheng Zhen said with inexplicable anger.

Ye Zi was aroused by his anger, and the anger came out, and he stuffed the cake and gifts into Cheng Zhen's arms, "You go to celebrate your birthday and watch the fireworks by yourself, and I'll go back to accompany my mother." ”

Cheng Zhen was remorseful and hateful, holding the things that Ye Zi stuffed into him in a daze, and shouted, "Ye Zi."

He was aggrieved by this shout.

As soon as Ye Zi heard the anger coming up again, he turned to Cheng Zhen and said, "Brother Cheng, what do you want me to do?" If you don't want to make it public, if you're unhappy, what do you want? ”

Cheng Zhen was silent for a few seconds before he spoke: "There is no reluctance, I am afraid, I am afraid that our relationship will bring you trouble and shackles you, but you can't walk away the day you want to leave, and you can't be yourself freely."

Ye Zi looked at the emotions flowing in Cheng Zhen's eyes, the sadness of dodging, his heart was about to break into several pieces, and he gently hugged Cheng Zhen, "Brother Cheng, I won't." ”

The three words "I won't" gave Cheng Zhen an answer to the matter that he had hesitated for two days in an instant, no matter what, how could he give up such a good person, how could he make her sad, as for the rest of the way to find a way, there is always a way, and it can always be solved.

After being sleepy for a few days, he found an outlet, and at this moment, Cheng Zhen's mood was really relieved.

"Well, I won't either." Cheng Zhen said firmly.
