Chapter 178: There's a fire in the backyard
Jiang Se stepped on the light cast by the moon on the ground. The shadows cast between the trees, the chatter and laughter of passers-by, surrounded the surroundings.
The person beside her was extremely quiet, silently guarding her side. She takes a step, he takes a step. She was quicker, and he quickened. She slowed down, and he naturally slowed down.
After a long time, Jiang Se suddenly stopped, looked at Zhang Heng, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry! I thought, I owe you a word of sorry. β
"Really?" Zhang Heng also paused, and looked seriously at the person in front of him who had suddenly changed his identity.
"Not apologies for being a girl, but because, I'm not the first person to know the secret, am I?"
Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to apologize.
"Yes."
"Did you break up with him?" Zhang Heng asked again. It was a nonchalant tone, but it was determined.
Jiang Se nodded.
Zhang Heng lowered his head and smiled, with a little more ridicule, and he didn't know whether he was mocking himself or others.
"I shouldn't have asked you this question...... But, Jiang Se, I care about you. Before you were with him, I told you to stay away from him. Three years...... Can someone who has loved for such a long time still be able to let go? β
Can you let it go? Jiang Se asked himself. In the days they were together, she never felt like she was half-hearted. I just like this thing, if I don't like it, I don't like it, and I naturally don't want to continue to insist on it if I let it go.
Because a lot of things that shouldn't be given up in love, it's not ideal love. If you can't firm up your position, it may mean that in that person's mind, your position has not yet been inseparable.
The matter of letting go is not so complicated.
"yes, three years, or let go."
"Because you're a girl?" Zhang Heng asked. Maybe he secretly guessed that it wasn't the reason, but it wasn't what he was supposed to do to the man. What a man does, regardless of the reason, turns out to be wrong, and too many explanations will pale in comparison.
Jiang Se did not answer. Zhang Heng has a bottom in his heart. His darkened skin glowed a dim yellow under the streetlights, his clothes half-exposed, zippers hanging underneath.
Jiang Se looked at the head of the chain, slowly stretched out his hand, and pulled the zipper up to the collarbone. The familiar smell suddenly came to his nose, and an extra hand on his back hugged her tightly and rubbed her into his arms.
For a moment, Jiang Se's eyes were full of tears, and he was about to fall down.
"Cry if you want to! Jiang Meiren, no matter what time it is, I will accompany you. Our friendship has remained unchanged for thousands of years and will never change.
I won't have any bad thoughts because of your hiding. I just recognize you as a friend. All the hardships, perhaps, I can be clear. You don't have to bear it alone, say it, cry it, my shoulder, my bosom, will always be your harbor. β
Tears were always rolling in my eyes. That warm smell wraps around the whole body all the time. Jiang Se felt very tired, but suddenly he was not tired. It seems that all the distress and anxiety are known to one person.
It's not a commitment, it's peace of mind.
"Actually, I didn't want to hide it from you." There was a choked voice in the words, Jiang Se was extremely well disguised, and his chin rested on Zhang Heng's shoulder, warm and reassuring.
"I don't tell you because I don't want to make a lot of trouble. If I didn't tell you when I was a child, I didn't trust you. When I decided to be a boy, the moment I said those words, I felt that I was different from other children.
They have sound families, happy families, and caring for their loved ones. But I didn't. When I first saw you being bullied and lying in the mud, I suddenly felt that perhaps, I was not the only one in this world who was uncomfortable.
Behind their naughtiness, behind their pretending to be strong, there is also stubbornness and refusal to admit defeat. I never thought of throwing in the towel and bowing to fate. Although, at times, this idea seems a little naΓ―ve. But it doesn't matter anymore. β
Zhang Heng gently patted her back, rubbed her hair, rubbed it carefully, and sighed softly, "How can I blame you?" You don't have to say sorry.
I don't care what you do. As long as it's you, I'll admit it. As long as it's you, I won't give up on you. I'll be with you. Jiang Se, knowing you, I have never regretted it. How fortunate I know you. β
The hot water in his eye sockets almost slipped out. Tilting his head slightly, he wiped away that feeling vigorously, and sorted out his emotions, Jiang Se said in a low voice:
"Similarly, knowing you Zhang Heng, I have never regretted it. No matter what kind of you are, I recognize you as a friend. Ah Heng, we all have to work hard to escape from here and go farther. Don't let them ...... Saddening those who are genuinely worried about us. β
"Well, not sad. It's going to be fine. Zhang Heng said confidently, and said paradoxically, "In the end, I really became a Jiang beauty...... My mouth is ......."
Zhang Heng didn't entangle with that person anymore, and he didn't plan to reason. He was a smart man. If he hadn't been naΓ―ve and ignorant, and blindly wanted to settle accounts with that person, they wouldn't have intersected.
There is no intersection, and there will be no later relationship.
The night was dark, there was a faint light in the room, and a cool breeze blew in through the window, and the two people in the room were lying lazily.
It's just one on the couch and one on the bed. Tired of playing the game on his phone, Ember threw it to the other side, staring intently at the man staring at the phone.
He paused for a long time before asking, "Well, is it really just like that?" Don't go out and surf? We're going to take graduation photos tomorrow, and we don't have classes, so we should go out and have fun. β
The person over there didn't say a word, his eyes stayed on the photos on the page, and his heart was about to become sour, and it was too difficult.
Is it so happy? Except for him, they can still cherish each other's fate in the face of parting time like this, and have a lot of fun, right?
Hehe, too, her popularity has always been so good. Whether it was in the past or now, there has never been a shortage of such a person by her side.
"Huh? Why don't you speak? Ember slipped on his slippers and walked over to him. The man in front of him planted his vegetable garden as if nothing had happened, as if he had no sense of anything in the outside world.
"What? Or do you feel like your game is more important? There's a fire in the backyard! β
Still no response.
Lan Shen remembered what Lin Zhifa said, and couldn't help but smile again, sitting on the chair next to him, and staring at the person in front of him.
"Uh-huh, don't care? So go out for a few drinks? One cannot always dwell on such hopeless time. You have to do something to make your heart feel at ease! β
