"Summer solstice!"

She was right in front of him. Su Xiao stood at the innermost part of the elevator, protecting the two boxes of drinks he bought, and he got out of the elevator through the gap that people had made for him.

She was carrying two large bags of books and sweating profusely. He's not much better, a dress and two suitcases of milk tea and coffee, it must be funny. And so they were reunited.

He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart: "It's good to see you again." ”

Obviously he had wrapped himself up again, and when he saw her, he still couldn't help but want to tell her everything.

However...... Can it really be? The one who can't even accept him, will she be willing to face it?

The tense and interdependent mother-son relationship between him and Su Yujie, the unbearable relationship, and the secrets he tried to hide...... Little by little, he opened himself up to her, and each time, he was scared.

He was afraid of losing her. The thought that she might ignore him again because of this made him fearful.

He had become accustomed to her presence.

He loved to see her smile and pat him on the shoulder, telling him that this was the layout she wanted. He could work overtime without complaint for a compliment from her until she was satisfied.

He likes to look at her face, and every time she falls into deep thought, she will unconsciously bite her left thumb, and her eyes are like sparks.

He liked to see her eat in spite of her manners after a busy round, and he couldn't help but laugh at that honesty.

……

Her face, her joys and sorrows, were carved into his heart like a knife, and he couldn't help but pick up the paintbrush. He painted her eyes, eyes bent into a crescent moon with a smile, eyes that were round in anger, eyes that were listless when he was sleepy, and every little light gave him hope.

He suddenly had an idea, when this sketchbook was full of her, he would give this book to her, so that she could see her in his eyes.

However, before he could finish the painting, another person appeared next to her.

On the night when Xia Solstice came to find Su Xiao, he was actually not very happy.

He met the man who was delivering the flowers. He had followed her out of the office and watched her enter the elevator, and he quickly chased her down from another elevator.

However, when he ran to Fei Hong Plaza, he saw her holding a rose in her hand and leaving side by side with the man.

Their compatibility made him sad, even if only for a moment. Who she is with, he is not qualified to ask. He's just a brother.

When he returned home and opened the refrigerator, the rickety beer cans on the refrigerator door made him faintly irritated.

He took out all the beer, pulled the tab, poured cans after cans down the drain, and cleared all the empty cans out of the room.

After he finished, he felt that he was so naïve. If she knew, she would have laughed at him—no, she wouldn't.

Even when she rang his doorbell an hour later, he would never tell her about it.

"I want beer."

"Nope. You haven't been here for so long, and you've already finished drinking the beer. When she said this, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional, I hope she didn't hear it.

He was glad that she was willing to come and listen to him, and he was also sad that she had already taken a liking to the man.

He shouldn't be sad, he has already thought about it, he wants to go the road in the future alone, and there is no reason to pull her to accompany him. She deserves better, and that person is a much better person than him.

He said: "Some people can really live well together, and I hope you are the kind of person." When you laugh, you empathize with each other, when you are cold, you hug each other, and when you cry, you wipe each other's tears. No matter how difficult the road is, two people can walk it together. I want you to love people, as well as be loved. "City

Instead, stay with a so-called younger brother and waste your youth......

Finally, he said to her, "If you really like him, there's no shame in going to him." ”

He didn't know how much his words had done to Xia Zhi, he saw that she was still commuting to work alone, and that person didn't come to her again.

When she needed to find someone to go home to deal with her parents, she was looking for him, not the person. I can't help but say that he is still quite happy that he can help her.

She, like him, didn't want to get married—he couldn't. They all want to live alone, and they all have to face interrogation from relatives and friends from time to time.

So why, can't they be together?

"Summer Solstice...... Let's really get married. He was taken aback by his thoughts.

Of course she would refuse. There is no need for her to marry a man who declares that she does not like women. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his proposal was a bastard. Knowing that she attaches great importance to marriage, he vainly tries to make her accept a marriage in name only.

Unless...... He can give her real affection......

He faltered. He couldn't see himself in the fog. The clutter of the past came flooding back, striking him over and over again in his dreams.

"Su Xiao, who called? You can't go anywhere without your mother's permission. Have you finished your sketch assignment today? Go back to your room and draw! ”

"Su Xiao? What else are you calling for? You're going to kill me, your mother ran to my mother's unit to block my mother, and my mother will definitely beat me to death when she comes back! ”

"Su Xiao, mom is for your good, that girl is not a serious person at first glance, mom has investigated, and she has a boyfriend in the second year of junior high school. Your task at this stage is to study hard and not be distracted......"

“…… Hey, hey...... Where are you going, Su Xiao, why did you run away as soon as you saw us? Didn't you ask Lingxin to meet here? Ling Xin asked us to deliver a letter to him...... Stop him, don't let him run! ……”

……

He couldn't breathe and woke up sweaty. He couldn't imagine that he could still love someone normally.

He was already broken, and he couldn't give her endless love.

If love is just a plane that twists and meets, and there is no boundary between the front and the back, then it is much simpler. Merchants always like to advertise like this, giving people the illusion that they can have love if they have a certain product.

Occasionally, however, he was willing to be deceived by such illusions.

"Sir, this is our brand's newly launched Mobius suit, with the Mobius ring as the design element, representing the eternity of love, if you give it to your girlfriend, it is very meaningful!"

He stared down at the necklace in the window, but couldn't help but ask the salesman to wrap it.

"Sir, necklaces don't just sell!" The salesperson reminded.

“…… Then, the ring is also needed. ”

He pushed the ring deep into the desk drawer, and with it, along with the longing in his heart.

She had already expressed more than once that she didn't like him and didn't want him to like him. She trusts him and has no grudge against him, all because of the "dislike" he promised.

Then, his "like" is also a betrayal.

He didn't want to betray her, he hid his likes well, and then played the role of his younger brother seriously.

He was carrying too many shackles. If it wasn't for him, she could have lived better.
