On the way back, Lu Qingran was very quiet.

Xi Hanyan followed behind him, and he could clearly feel that he was in a bad mood.

The voice-activated lights in the stairwell were already on as they stepped up the stairs, and the old dim light blurred the silhouette of the boy.

His eyebrows and eyes are deep, the lines of his side face are straight, and the corners of his eyes are drooping with a shallow depression.

The baby's crying had stopped, the dog's barking had disappeared, and the world was so quiet that only her and his footsteps and the sound of his breathing were silent.

The young man was tall, straddling his long legs, walking up the steps, and his slender and handsome back was full of silence.

Xi Hanyan remembered that when Lu Qingran saw Assistant Xu tonight, the fleeting loss in his eyes couldn't help but twitch.

In the past, in her eyes, Lu Qingran was just an NPC, a bunch of data.

He only regards him as the goal of the mission, and only thinks about completing the task as soon as possible.

But at this moment, Xi Hanyan had an illusion in a trance, Lu Qingran was a flesh-and-blood person with his own feelings.

He is only seventeen years old, and he should have a warm family, loving parents, and even a younger brother or sister, and a loving wife with him in the future.

And not like now, thin shoulders, forced to carry heavy burdens.

To yearn for the unattainable family affection, and hope for the unattainable father's love and companionship.

He couldn't get any of that.

Xi Hanyan suddenly wanted to hug him.

The girl's footsteps suddenly became faster, and before Lu Qingran could turn around, a gust of wind came from behind, gently wrapping around his waist, and then the fragrance of flowers that he was very familiar with.

"Lu Qingran, let me tell you quietly, in fact, I just wanted to sneak a look at you, but I was caught by you."

Xi Han's face did not change and lied, she really didn't know how to comfort Lu Qingran.

I can't think of anything else but hugging him and lying to comfort him.

After all, she has never been in a relationship and has no experience to speak of.

Lu Qingran froze in place.

He could feel the girl pressing her cheek against his back, her shallow breath hitting the underside of his shoulder blades through the thin clothing.

It was so hot that his breath was choking.

"Lu Qingran, do you know why I don't call you brother?"

The girl's voice was soft, like a marshmallow just out of the pot, with a sweet and silky heat.

Lu Qingran subconsciously asked, "Why?" ”

The girl's voice was muffled and a little sad: "Because Lu Qingran is already very hard, I don't want you to be a brother, I don't want to be your responsibility and burden, I don't want you to work so hard." ”

"Lu Qingran, you are so proud and so good, you shouldn't be confined to this small place, you don't have to hide yourself for an irrelevant person."

"You should live a chic and free life, create your own brilliance, and radiate your own light and heat."

"Lu Qingran, I can't, and shouldn't treat you as a brother. Mom and Dad are gone, you should have your own life. I don't want to be the one holding you back, and I don't need you to take on this responsibility. ”

"Lu Qingran, I'm very distressed......"

The back gradually became hot and moist, and then there was a soft whimper from the girl.

Lu Qingran's throat tightened, and he couldn't describe what he felt in his heart at the moment.

He couldn't help but turn around, the tip of the girl's nose was red, her eyes were red, and tears filled her eyes.

Lu Qingran couldn't hold back any longer, raised his hand and pressed the person directly to his chest.

Lu Qingran's throat rolled, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Little liar, I'm not hard at all." ”
