"What's the matter, do you want me to stay with you? I know that sick girls will be lonely and lonely, and they need someone to be by their side, so I'll accompany you until your family comes back. ”

Lan Xingchen smiled slightly, with a gentle face.

He sat on the edge of the bed and gently rubbed Lu Ningning's head.

Lan Xingchen didn't know that Lu Ningning lived alone in this apartment, her mother had married into Mr. Li Yan's family, and her father had disappeared, and her family would never come back.

"I'm sorry, senior, I want to keep you......"

She felt that she was too willful to hold on to Lan Xingchen.

obviously doesn't like Lan Xingchen, but he is attached to Lan Xingchen's gentleness like a brother.

After a while, Lu Ningning let go of the hand that was holding Lan Xingchen's arm.

As soon as she let go, Blue Xingchen approached her, clear eyes like a lake staring at her condescendingly.

The distance between the two was suddenly shortened, and Lu Ningning was nervous for no reason.

Only then did she remember what Azure Star had confessed to her a few days ago.

Although she didn't agree to date Lan Xingchen, Lan Xingchen didn't seem to give up.

Looking at Lan Xingchen, who was constantly approaching her, Lu Ningning was a little scared when she thought of the fact that she was almost kissed by him by the Spirit Lake.

She moved and exclaimed, "Senior! ”

"Shhhh

Lan Xingchen said in a gentle tone, helping Lu Ningning cover the quilt that was messed up by her.

After covering the quilt, Lan Xingchen's warm big hand gently pressed Lu Ningning's little head.

"Hey, don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you, you're sick, I won't take advantage of others."

“……”

Hearing Lan Xingchen say that, Lu Ningning's hanging heart was relieved.

"Ning Ning, can you give me a clear answer?

“……”

Hearing Lan Xingchen's words, Lu Ningning realized that Lan Xingchen was talking about Linghu's confession.

He was so gentle, and he was so kind to her like a brother, but ......

However, even if she liked him, it was just the kind of sister who liked her brother.

It's not about love!

She knew that she couldn't respond to Lan Xingchen's love for her.

All she could say was sorry to him.

If she could, she would love to be a brother and sister with Lan Xingchen.

“…… Senior...... I'm sorry I ......."

Lu Ningning apologized intermittently to Lan Xingchen in a hoarse voice.

Lan Xingchen sighed and muttered in frustration: "...... No, I see......"

His clear, bright eyes suddenly dimmed, and he looked hurt.

Lu Ningning looked at him, a little self-reproachful.

For so long, she has enjoyed Lan Xingchen's intimate care like a brother.

But Lan Xingchen's love for her is not the love of her brother for her sister, but the love between men and women.

Sluggish, she couldn't respond to his love after all.

When she was a freshman in high school, after meeting Lan Xingchen for the first time in the art club, she liked him very much.

Because Lan Xingchen is a genius of the art club, she naturally longs for him because she loves art, in addition, Lan Xingchen also cares for her like a big brother, takes care of her, and also lets her join the student union, spread her wings, protect her, and don't let her be bullied.

She is deeply grateful for everything Lan Xingchen has done.

She also likes Lan Xingchen, but that is her sister's love for her brother, the love of family affection, and it has nothing to do with love.

That day in Linghu, when Lan Xingchen suddenly confessed to her, she was not only shocked, but also hoped to respond to his love.

Love is something that can't be forced, and she can't do anything about it.

Because she already has someone in her heart who she admires, and that is someone she has quietly loved for nearly ten years.

That person was the little angel who saved her from the fire when she was a child.

Even today's Li Chengfeng no longer remembers saving her.

But she remembered it and loved it secretly.

Therefore, she could not have any response to Lan Xingchen's love.
