Chapter 135. bitter
"Didn't you say you had something to tell me? Why haven't you said anything for a long time? ”
Ah Ran put down the teacup, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of curiosity.
"Huh? …… Oh, you've had dinner, haven't you? ”
On the way to his dormitory, I had already thought of a statement, but as soon as I saw his eyes, my heart became empty.
Maybe it's really inappropriate for me......
"You've already asked this question, forgot?"
He looked at me amusedly.
"Huh? yes, I forgot ......."
I smiled awkwardly, still unable to speak.
Although we are very close on weekdays, he doesn't even call himself "I" in front of me, but simply treats me as a sister.
But even if I don't pay attention to it, I shouldn't care about his affairs.
Alas, I regret it, why should I bother with this!
"What's wrong with you?"
He habitually tapped me on the forehead.
"What the hell do you want to say, so hard to speak?
In this palace, you are more comfortable than me, what else do you dare not say? ”
"I ......"
I plucked up my courage, looked at him, opened my mouth, and the words that had reached my mouth fell back into my stomach.
He looked at me for a moment, and his smile faded. "What the hell is going on?"
Seeing that he became serious, I knew that I was afraid that I would not be able to say it again, so I hesitated to speak:
"Are you...... Stayed overnight at Ling'er's? ……”
Before I could finish speaking, I saw that his face sank, and his eyes glistened with coldness.
"Who told you?"
Seeing him like this, my scalp went numb.
I've never seen Ah Ran like this, and I'm suddenly a little overwhelmed.
"Who told you?"
He repeated, anger in his voice.
"Don't worry, this matter didn't get out, it was Ling'er who told me personally."
But when Ah Ran heard my words, not only did he not breathe a sigh of relief, but his eyes flashed with killing intent!
My heart pounded, no wonder Ling'er begged me like that.
"What did she tell you?"
His voice sounded tense, and he looked at me with emotions in his eyes that I couldn't understand.
Still wondering, he looked away.
Seeing his reaction, I gradually felt that what happened that night might not be as simple as Ling'er said.
But I have opened my mouth, and I can only say:
"She didn't talk to me much. Said that you were drunk that night and stayed with her, and told her not to spread the word the next day. ”
"That's all? Nothing else? ”
Ah Ran gradually calmed down.
But I felt as if he was worried about something, as if there was something he didn't want me to know.
"Hmm. That's all she had to say about that night. ”
I said cautiously, observing his expression as I spoke.
"And what is she asking you for?"
He looked at me again, and this time I couldn't read the emotion in his eyes.
I'm still trying to figure out his thoughts, casually saying, "Huh? "Yes.
"Didn't you come to be a lobbyist for her?"
I reacted, but when I remembered what I was going to say next, I was speechless again.
"What the hell is going on? Don't beat around the bush. ”
Ah Ran's mood suddenly became very bad, and I didn't dare to delay any longer.
"Ling'er...... I'm pregnant......"
Ah Ran's brows furrowed stiffly.
I stubbornly continued: "I have taken her pulse, and it has only been three months ......"
I saw his forehead bulging, apparently he was gritting his teeth.
I had a little foreboding in my heart, but I still asked, "That child is yours?" ……”
As soon as the words came out, I suddenly felt embarrassed.
He didn't answer, and there was a dead silence in the room.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly looked at me, and his eyes fell straight into my eyes like a torch.
For some reason, I felt as if he was observing my look.
I was awkwardly looked at by him, turned my face away, and reluctantly said, "That kid, what are you going to do?" ”
He was still staring at me, very serious, and he didn't say much about what he said: "What do you want me to do?" ”
"Huh? I...... I don't know? ”
How did he think to ask me?
He is the father of the child! Shouldn't this matter be decided by him and Ling'er?
Or is he blaming me for not being involved?
yes, I really shouldn't have been involved in that.
When I got involved, not only would I be embarrassed, but I would also embarrass Ah Ran.
Alas! What did I think at the time to agree to help with such a favor?
"Huh, you don't know? I thought you had your own idea since you were a lobbyist. ”
He smiled wryly, his words full of self-deprecation.
Looking at the bitterness on his lips, my heart gradually became bitter.
I'm really thankless enough to get myself in such trouble!
But now that I have promised Ling'er, I have to say what I have to say, no matter how difficult it is:
"I know that in my capacity, I shouldn't be involved in such a thing. But I've already promised Ling'er, so I still want to ask you for her, can that child stay? ”
"Is this her will, or yours?"
His voice was frighteningly cold.
"Is there a difference?"
"Yes!"
He suddenly leaned closer, gritted his teeth and said:
"If this is just her wishes, then you go back and tell her that not only will I not keep this child, but even she will not keep it!"
My body trembled, and I didn't know the person in front of me anymore, but I still managed to calm down.
"What if it's my will?"
"If it is your will, your words alone are not enough for me to keep that child.
I want reasons, reasons that can convince me. ”
Looking at the resoluteness in his eyes, I took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Ah Ran, I really didn't think about getting involved in this matter. But since you asked me, then I want to ask you, can you keep this child? ”
Hearing this, the look in Ah Ran's eyes dimmed little by little, and disappointment appeared.
It seems that he really didn't want this child, but I had to finish it:
"Ah Ran, in this world, you and I are the only and closest people to each other.
My father and mother are no longer here, I think you must be like me, and what you value most is your relatives.
If you are willing to keep this child, we will have one more relative, one more care, and one more to rely on in the future.
This is my idea, since you ask, I will answer truthfully.
But I want to say that that's just my thoughts, too.
If you want this child, stay; You don't want it, that's entirely your own choice. Don't choose for me or anyone else.
Of course, it would be best if you could think about Ling'er's thoughts, after all, she is the mother of the child. ”
After saying that, my eyes were a little uncontrollably hot.
Ah Ran lowered his head, didn't know what he was thinking, and was silent for a while.
I stood up and said, "Ling'er, you should go and give her an explanation."
I don't know what's going on between you, so I can't say more.
I...... Just go back first, you rest early. ”
Seeing that he was unresponsive, I walked out the door, and when I was about to reach the door, his voice came from behind me:
"Xuan'er, you are my sister...... My sister ......"
He was talking to me, but he was talking to himself.
I paused, wondering why he said such things in such a strange tone, and turned my head to look at him worriedly.
He also looked at me sideways, with a bitter smile on his face, but I had never seen such a bitter smile, and it made my chest feel tight.
What's wrong with him?
I was worried about him, and was about to say something, but he said:
"Go back to the palace, it's dark, be careful on the road."
He smiled again, but this time it was endless self-deprecation.
"Ah Ran, are you alright?"
I was about to walk back to him, but I saw him stand up.
He came over, without saying a word, but put his arm on my shoulder and carried me out the door.
His strength is so great that I can't resist at all, and I can't even look at his expression.
He shoved me out the door and slammed it shut.
"Ah Ran ......"
I pushed the door, but I didn't, I guess he was stuck behind the door.
"Let's go back." His words were resolute and exhausting.
I knew that it was useless to say anything, so I could only go back to Huanyue Palace.
