In the playground, although Xu Tong has not spoken, it can be seen from his eyes that he has ideas.

Tang Tang took him to play one project after another, all of which were children's projects, Ji Xincheng played a few times, and he was dizzy, so Tang Tang asked her to find a place to rest, drink a cup of tea and wait for them.

Tang Tang didn't seem to be a little impatient in this matter.

Ji Xincheng thought of the past, and among those who were familiar with Tang Tang, they would think that she was the most urgent one, but they didn't expect her to have such a side.

Walking past a few cafes, Ji Xincheng chose one with better lighting and walked in.

I didn't expect to meet Shang Xuan and Si Qian here.

Seeing Ji Xincheng, Shang Xuan's eyes were slightly surprised, and then she calmed down and smiled at her.

Si Qian was always cold and disgusted.

"Hello ma'am, how many of you are there?"

A waiter stepped forward to guide Ji Xincheng, and after Ji Xincheng smiled at the two people sitting in the booth, he planned to go with the waiter.

At this time, I heard Shang Xuan say behind him:

"Can you talk?"

Ji Xincheng's footsteps couldn't help stopping, and when he looked back, Shang Xuan was indeed talking to her.

Without waiting for her to answer, Si Qian, who was sitting opposite Shang Xuan, had already gotten up and said to Shang Xuan in a soft voice:

"I'll be waiting for you in the car."

Then he glanced at Ji Xincheng before turning around and leaving the café.

"Come and sit down, shall you?"

To Ji Xincheng, who was still standing in place, Shang Xuan smiled again.

In the gap between Ji Xincheng and Ji Xincheng, Shang Xuan had already asked the waiter to remove Si Qian's coffee cup, and asked Ji Xincheng again:

"What do you drink?"

"American, thank you."

After Ji Xincheng finished speaking to the waiter, he sat down in the place where Si Qian had sit, and looked up and smiled at Shang Xuan.

This is the first time the two have sat together calmly and face to face since their reunion.

Neither of them was in a hurry to start for a while, and the silence continued for a while.

In the end, it was Ji Xincheng who broke the silence first, and she asked:

"Lately, how are you doing?"

Ji Xincheng's gaze fell on the milk cup in front of Shang Xuan, and he didn't dare to look at her eyes for a long time.

"The same old way."

After Shang Xuan finished speaking, she seemed to feel a little perfunctory, so she added seriously:

"My body, I can't move until I lie down, even if it's good. The current days are to earn one day at a time, and there are no years to think about. I'm content to be able to walk around and sit here and talk to you like I do today. ”

Ji Xincheng raised his head, with tears in his eyes.

When Shang Xuan saw her like this, she smiled instead:

"Do you want to say sorry to me again? In fact, I already knew that I can't blame you for what happened back then. You didn't mean it, it was just a mistake. I don't hate you anymore, don't blame yourself for it. ”

"Over the years, I have been paying attention to your news, and I have also asked private detectives to investigate, but I have not found out."

Ji Xincheng's voice was a little hoarse, with a bit of desolation that suddenly looked back at people.

Shang Xuan naturally felt the same way, her fingers groped around the edge of the milk cup, and she told the truth:

"In the past few years, I have been protected by Si Qian, and I asked him to hide my news, and my idea at that time was to cut off all contact with the past. I don't want you to find it. ”

She spoke in a calm tone, clearly moving on from the past.

"I see."

Ji Xincheng felt a little relieved in his heart, and didn't want Shang Xuan to always see her unhappy side.

Then he cheered up, smiled and said about Si Qian:

"Si Qian is very good to you."

When Ji Xincheng said this, he also wanted to confirm whether Si Qian was really as good to Shang Xuan as outsiders saw. Ji Xincheng didn't see a denial on Shang Xuan's face, but a lingering pain.

"He's just too stubborn."

Speaking of Si Qian, Shang Xuan's eyes were a little confused, and he sighed vaguely, and then thought of something, and said to Ji Xincheng:

"I haven't been to the company for a long time, and I won't go again in the future, I had my selfish intention to let you into the company at the beginning, you knew it but still promised me, now that I'm gone, why don't you leave too? With your current conditions, it is not difficult to find a better company. ”

"It's okay, I think it's good to stay here."

"I'm not saying that the company is bad, but the company."

"What's wrong with him?"

"He probably ...... will do things that are not good for you, Tang Tang has already left his job, if you can, I hope you will leave early. ”

Shang Xuan's worries have become a reality, which is exactly what Ji Xincheng is currently experiencing.

She didn't want to say it, she could see that Shang Xuan had something in her heart, and if the truth would make Shang Xuan feel embarrassed, then she would naturally choose not to mention it.

"I'll take notice."

Shang Xuan's hand holding the cup let go, hesitated, but still slipped over the tabletop and held Ji Xincheng's hand next to the coffee cup.

Her hands were very cold, which made Ji Xincheng unconscious, and her heart was also cold.

"Leave, it's my last request, you must agree to me?"

Ji Xincheng's tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, and she looked sideways at the sky outside the window to hide the tears that were about to fall.

It took a while to come back and try to pull out a smile:

"I promise you, but can you not say something like that? It was like saying goodbye, and I always felt like we had just met again, and everything was just beginning......"

As she spoke, she choked up and couldn't go on.

Compared with Ji Xincheng's emotional ups and downs, Shang Xuan always had a calm face.

Probably having experienced too much, Shang Xuan felt that many of his senses had become numb.

Including pain.

Holding Ji Xincheng's hand tightly, seeing that she also shook it back hard, the two looked at each other and smiled.

"You don't have to worry, although my health is very poor now, I am not world-weary, if I can choose, I will insist on living one more day, even if it is endless pain."

Ji Xincheng nodded and smiled, but tears couldn't stop falling on the table.

Drop by drop, heavy and heavy.

Shang Xuan handed her a tissue, let go of her hand and said:

"Okay, don't cry, you don't know and think I'm bullying you."

Shang Xuan's eyes had a rare lightness look.

Ji Xincheng lowered his head to wipe away his tears, and took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Sorry, I've been really ...... lately"

Shang Xuan looked at her with a smile, not in a hurry, waiting for her to calm down a lot.

Only then did he say: "I saw the news about you and Gu Shaoze, I was angry with you before, not because I just hated your past, but because I thought you were willing to let him take care of him, so unlucky." will say such heavy words. ”

Ji Xincheng didn't know that there was still this stubble, but when he heard the explanation, he still smiled comfortably.

"It seems that he loves you very much, and he is willing to stand up and clarify for you at this time."

"I'm not sure, I always feel like I can't fully trust him."

"It's right to have reservations, people's minds are the hardest to guess, and sometimes even you can't get your own heart."

Ji Xincheng thought of Song Qi, and Shang Xuan said, "I've been to see him." ”

Shang Xuan's expression at the moment was an endless sigh, and she said:

"In the past, we were so close, but now we can only pay for his medical bills, and nothing else can help."

This time, it was Ji Xincheng who took Shang Xuan's hand and comforted her: "Song Qi will get better." ”

Shang Xuan remembered seeing Ji Xincheng's sister Ji Xinran in the hospital, "I didn't expect her to take care of people very carefully, and the nurse said that she was not inferior to the nurse at all." ”

"Really? I really hadn't seen her do any of these things before. ”

Thinking of the past, Shang Xuan fell into a memory, "When we first entered the university, Xinran was still very young. ”

Ji Xincheng didn't want to talk about Ji Xinran anymore, and her thoughts went back to the scene when she and Shang Xuan first met, and coincidentally, Shang Xuan naturally thought of that time, it was Shang Xuan who opened her mouth first:

"Do you remember how we met?"

"Of course I do!"

Ji Xincheng was a little excited, "You scared me to death at the time, in order to save a cat, you didn't care about it, so you rushed to the front of the car." I was still thinking to myself, how could such a stupid person even ask me to meet me! ”

"But you helped me later."

"I can't be angry with the owner, domineering, you apologized so much, he still refuses to give up, he has to scold you and cry, I was in a bad temper at that time."

Thinking of the way Ji Xincheng scolded the owner at that time, Shang Xuan still feels that his memory is still fresh.

"Your temper was a little anxious at that time, but you were always reasonable, you don't know that I can admire it in my heart, how can there be such a smart female classmate, scolding people without dirty words, and hitting the nail on the head."

The two looked at each other and smiled, no longer as cautious as before.

Ji Xincheng said politely:

"That's because you're too timid, or rather, you're too gentle with people. At that time, I guess the whole world was all good people in your eyes, right? ”

"No, it mainly depends on who is right."

"I just remember that no matter how rude my request was, you would have agreed to me."

Ji Xincheng thought that the accident was all caused by her willfulness, Shang Xuan actually reminded that the weather was bad, but Ji Xincheng never took her worries seriously, which caused a big disaster.

The smile on his face disappeared, and Ji Xincheng said:

"You are always like this, give me advice, if I am willful, just accompany me, and then take care of it. That time, if only I listened to you. ”

"Don't think so, you are not capricious, you have courage, unlike me, you always dare to think and not act. Being able to meet you and Tang Tang in college, and becoming good friends with you, was the happiest thing I felt at that time. I never thought there was anything wrong with going out crazy with you, all I could think of was that I was the only one who would never dare to try, so to speak, you two opened another door for me, and in that door, there may be danger, but it is more colorful than I expected. Even now that I look back, I don't regret it, but I still appreciate you, really. ”

Shang Xuan's words made Ji Xincheng's eyes red again.

But this time, Ji Xincheng felt more joy than sadness.

This kind of friendship that is understood and responded to, when you are missing, you may feel that there is nothing, but once you lose it, the satisfaction in your heart is difficult to describe in words.

They looked at each other and smiled, and were silent for a long time.

Tang Tang called at this time and asked where Ji Xincheng was, and was going to bring Xu Tong over to meet her, hearing that she was with Shang Xuan, Tang Tang was a little unsure, and asked Ji Xincheng: "Is that you coming, or are we coming?" ”

Ji Xincheng thought for a while and said, "Come here, in the café directly opposite the West Gate." ”

Putting down the phone, Ji Xincheng asked Shang Xuan: "Do you want us to have lunch together?" ”

Shang Xuan was obviously ready to leave, put the phone in her bag, and said:

"Next time, Si Qian has been waiting for a long time."

Ji Xincheng nodded, anyway, there was time behind them, so he said to her:

"I haven't officially blessed you and Si Qian yet."

Shang Xuan was about to get up, and when she said this, she sat down in her seat again.

"I haven't told anyone about this, I and Si Qian are actually engaged by agreement."

In Ji Xincheng's surprise, Shang Xuan said with loss: "It is impossible for us to get married." ”

"But I can see that he has you in his heart!"

"It's not him, it's me."

Shang Xuan said: "With my physical condition, I can't drag him down anymore." In the past few years, he has been giving up all his life to take care of me, and in this life, with him for a few years, I have enough. ”

Ji Xincheng endured the tears that were about to rise in his heart, left his seat, and got up to hug Shang Xuan.

After many years of hugging, because of the heavy heart, it has become not so easy.

Shang Xuan patted Ji Xincheng's back, but comforted her reluctance:

"Next time we have a chance to eat together, help me say hello to Tang Tang."

"Okay, if you're bored, you can come to me."

"I see."

Seeing Shang Xuan's back go away, Ji Xincheng's heart was empty, and he didn't see the joy of relief after the misunderstanding was resolved.

Time is wonderful, sometimes destroyed, sometimes repaired, even if they no longer dwell on the repaired scars, but it will always be there, never disappearing, there......
