Chapter Twenty-Six: Let's Start Again, Shall We?

No matter how long you cry, no matter how sad you are, you can't escape what you have to face.

Gao Minlang pinched the bridge of his nose that was a little sour, started the car, and went home, even if that home was lonely and pervasive, but he had nowhere else to go.

But he himself felt inexplicable, he actually drove the car to the community where Mo Zhilan lived, and it wasn't until the car stopped downstairs at Zhilan's house that he realized: "What a ghost!" Gao Minlang hammered the steering wheel in disappointment and frustration. Then there was a shrill horn that made him immediately realize that this had disturbed the peace of the whole community, and he quickly looked around, but fortunately he did not hear the curse.

Gao Minlang looked up and saw that the living room of Zhilan's house was still lit. It shows that she hasn't rested yet, and she must be reckless and impulsive to go up rashly like this, not to mention that Liu Zhuo is here, even if he wants to say something, he can't let go at all.

But let's go home, he feels unwilling, he has come here, shouldn't he meet and say something? After struggling for a long time, he still mustered up the courage to dial Zhilan's phone!

The beeping sound rang for a long time, and then Zhilan's voice came from there!

"What's the matter?" The other person's voice was full of exhaustion.

With just this sentence, Gao Minlang knew that his wish to meet could not be fulfilled.

"That's... I just got back from the hospital..."

"Is there something wrong with my dad?" Zhilan asked anxiously.

"Nope!"

"Oh, that's good..."

Hearing Zhilan's relief, Gao Minlang also felt very relieved, so he struck while the iron was hot: "I have something I want to tell you, can we meet and talk?" ”

Zhilan didn't hesitate at all: "It's too late today, I'm also tired!" ”

This basin of cold water poured Gao Minlang with a cold heart: "Okay, then you rest early!" ”

"Thank you for your hard work today!" After Zhilan finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Gao Minlang's sentence was okay just in his throat, and the phone was already busy, so he was really bored! But he didn't want to leave like this, Zhilan's house was not high, three floors, he could imagine that Zhilan should be chatting with her friends at the moment, the topic might be her sick father, it might be an interesting story from their previous schooling, maybe mixed with a little bit of his Gao Minlang, who knows...

Liu Zhuo looked at Zhilan's preoccupied appearance, she didn't say a few words after hanging up the phone, Liu Zhuo knew that it was Gao Minlang calling, she didn't know what the two people said, but she could guess it!

"If you're tired, go to bed first!" Liu Zhuo reminded her: "There are still clothes in the washing machine that have not been taken out, I will dry them and go to sleep!" ”

Zhilan tried to squeeze out a smile: "It's okay, I'll wait for you!" ”

The two chatted for a while, Liu Zhuo took out the clothes, found a hanger, and went to the balcony! After putting on her clothes and returning to the living room, she looked at Zhilan hesitantly and asked, "Are you sure... Don't you go down? ”

Zhilan wondered: "What are you doing down?" Are you going to buy something? ”

"No, no, no!" Liu Zhuo entered the bathroom: "I mean, Mr. Gao's car is downstairs!" ”

Only then did Zhi Lan understand what Gao Minlang meant by meeting and chatting just now, it turned out that he had been waiting downstairs for a long time, Zhi suddenly felt that his refusal just now might embarrass Gao Minlang, he was also tired for a day, but he still went to the hospital to take care of his father, and he should have thanked him in person.

"Ah Table, you rest first, I'll come when I go!"

Zhilan was a little hesitant to change into more formal clothes, after all, it was not polite to wear pajamas, but after thinking about it, it was estimated that it would only be a few words to meet, and besides, it was so late, and the lights outside were also dim. So she just put a cardigan over and went down.

The lights upstairs were suddenly turned off, and Gao Minlang told himself to go home, this road is long, and it will not come to fruition if you keep it all night tonight. But as soon as the car started, Zhilan appeared, Zhilan stood next to the co-pilot, Gao Minlang quickly got out of the car, opened the door for her, and let Zhilan get in the car and talk!

Back in the car, Gao Minlang looked at the people around him, only wearing a nightdress, and a thin cardigan outside, although the weather is gradually warming up, but the temperature difference between day and night is huge, it must be cold when he comes out so late!

He immediately turned around and pulled the suit jacket on his back seat, and then shook it, and covered Zhilan's legs neatly: "It's cold at night, don't catch a cold!" ”

Zhilan's hand was on his coat, and when he touched it lightly, he knew that it was a very good fabric, a very high-end suit, and he didn't need to look at the brand at all, Zhilan could estimate its price, Gao Minlang was really as exquisite as ever, when he used to go to school, he asked his father for half a month's salary at that time for a shirt, and his concept was to wear it comfortably so as not to affect his studies.

"You're downstairs, why don't you say it on the phone?" Zhilan's words were a little disgusting: "I thought you were at home, so just now..."

Gao Minlang heard Zhilan say this, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, Zhilan was explaining to him the refusal just now!

"I've just arrived, it's okay, I know you're tired today, you should rest early!" The corners of Gao Minlang's mouth raised, and there was something sweet in his heart!

"Thank you for visiting my dad in the hospital today!" Zhilan said this absolutely sincerely, not perfunctory or polite.

"Don't say thank you, I haven't done enough!" Gao Minlang felt a little guilty.

Zhilan looked at the man in front of her, there was a new long stubble on her chin, although it was not long, but it was very thick, and she should be busy with work, so she didn't have time to deal with it, but this is not like his style!

"What? Is there anything on my face? As he spoke, Gao Minlang raised his hand and touched his face around.

Zhilan turned her head and chuckled, "I remember when you started having this kind of stubble, you hated them very much, and you always had a razor in your bag. In fact, think about it, at that time, how much beard could a boy have? ”

Gao Minlang also laughed: "Yes, you still laughed at me at that time, saying that I lived like a vacuum cleaner!" So always hide the razor for me! I didn't go to your house and asked Uncle Mo for it. ”

As he spoke, both of them laughed. It's just that they know each other, how happy they laugh, how painful they are in their hearts, and they can still sit here and "talk and laugh" after experiencing such a thing, which should be God's favor!

"Zhilan, I'm sorry! When you were sick, I was not by your side, I couldn't accompany you, I regret it, I was too conceited, too arrogant, I did those things that hurt you! Gao Minglang felt that he must be crazy to mention the events of the year in such a relaxed atmosphere, but he just couldn't help it and wanted to say sorry to Zhilan!

"We're together, isn't there really anything else to talk about other than what happened ten years ago?"

Zhilan's questioning made Gao Minlang wake up all of a sudden. But before she could explain, Zhilan said again: "You expose my old scars again and again, don't you know how desperate and embarrassed I was back then?" ”

"No, no, no, Zhilan, I really didn't mean that!" Gao Minlang's hands kept making "don't misunderstand" movements in front of Zhilan, but what did he have to say, Zhilan could understand that he actually wanted Zhilan to pass that hurdle!

"Gao Minlang, I thought many times later, between us, maybe it's really not a childhood sweetheart, we just grew up in the jokes of adults, so I think that we are together as a matter of course, and it is what everyone expects, but later it turned out that it was not at all!"

"What facts?" Gao Minlang was confused.

Zhilan sneered: "Don't you feel it yourself?" Back then, you told me to break up, and it didn't take long for you to confess to Bai Qing, and I later realized that it was me who had been between you and delayed you! ”

Hearing Zhilan say this, Gao Minlang actually smiled: "Zhilan, are you jealous?" ”

Mo Zhilan was angry, this man's thoughts were really too strange, which of his own words made him misunderstand that he was jealous?

"Me and Bai Qing, in fact, it's just for show! In order to be angry with you, if you want to say that you don't care, you don't care about me, you know about me and Bai Qing, but you don't think you have anything! Gao Minlang was disgusted.

"But then you're still together!" Didn't Li Junqiu say it clearly that day, Gao Minlang's girlfriend after going abroad was Bai Qing! Zhilan pouted, and there was an expression of "don't try to excuse yourself" on her face.

Gao Minlang's heart relaxed slightly, looking at Zhilan, who was still angry about the wrong things he had done before, he was happy and sweet in his heart.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault!" Gao Minlang raised his hand in surrender, he looked at Zhilan who pouted with love in his eyes, and then said seriously: "Zhilan, in fact, I don't want to endlessly mention the past, nor do I want you to taste the pain again, how can I be willing." I just don't want us all to live in the past and not get out! Although we all lost our loved ones in that accident, but if you want to talk about pain, I really am no less than you, I will never see my mother again, how can the pain of your life be compared to the pain of my death? It's just that I was too stubborn at that time, and I was too serious about handling things, so I would have brought you so much pain, if I had known that I couldn't let go of you, why would I hurt you like that, I had lost my mother, how could I be willing to lose you again? I'm to blame for everything... Really, it's been ten years, I've regretted it countless times, and I've wanted your forgiveness countless times, Zhilan... Forgive me, okay? ”

Zhilan's heart beats so fast, as if if it is not careful, it will pop out! Then pointed at himself and laughed: Mo Zhilan, should you compromise like this, forgive him like this! But Gao Minlang's words are really right: how can the pain of her birth be compared to the pain of her death! If it was her father who died in that accident, would she really be able to fall in love with the man in front of her as always?

"Min Lang..."Zhi Lan choked up, unable to say a word.

But in Gao Minlang's opinion, Zhilan Ken called him like this, which means that she no longer holds a grudge against him, he looked at Zhilan, his eyes were sour, but he had to endure not crying in front of Zhilan, he just stretched out his hand, pulled Zhilan into his arms, and asked softly in Zhilan's ear: "Zhilan, give me another chance, let's start again, okay?" ”
