Shen Ruochu's sudden rustiness and politeness made Tan Jiahui frown. He looked at her for a moment, silent. After the slight tingling pain in his chest slowly subsided, he said in a difficult voice: "Chuchu, do you know? It's your estrangement and politeness to me that makes me the saddest! ”

"Erguang, I ......" His eyes were sad and hidden, clearly reflected in her pupils. Shen Ruochu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to continue to say. Two seconds later, she lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look at him again, and a thousand words turned into a "I'm sorry." ”

In fact, since Tan Jiahui's confession, she has been trying to avoid him intentionally or unintentionally.

Intellectually, Shen Ruochu has been warning himself that since he can't understand his feelings, don't hang others. Hurt others and hurt yourself.

But often reason is reason, and when it comes to action, reality is another matter!

It's like falling down just now. Her dad is upstairs, and the 19th floor is two stories less than the 21st floor. But when she knew that she couldn't solve the fire far from her brother, she habitually went to Tan Jiahui to save the scene, just like back then.

In fact, Shen Ruochu occasionally thought that if she had been a little more sensitive back then and noticed that Tan Jiahui liked her, she might have alienated him a little bit at that time, and finally just became an ordinary acquaintance. lest you be entangled now and hurt people's hearts for no reason.

But what's the use? It's too late, isn't it?!

There are seven or eight years of affection between them. Even though the two sides of the ocean were once separated, that tacit understanding and intimacy have not been worn away by time and distance. In the green years of that year, she was always accompanied by him in the best and most carefree years of her life. How can it be so easy, just break it clean and thoroughly.

People's hearts are flesh and blood, and no matter how ruthless people are, they will have an object. In any case, she can't be cruel to him! And Tan Jiahui didn't do anything excessive, she really put on a posture of cutting in two, which was too hurtful. What's more, there is also the relationship between her and her brother!

Seeing her drooping her head and pouting and not speaking for a long time, Tan Jiahui couldn't help but sigh lightly, walked to the side of the hospital bed and stretched out his hand to mess around on the top of her hairy head twice, "Chu Chu, don't talk to me like this in the future!" ”

Shen Ruochu was silent.

Tan Jiahui's face sank, and his tone was a little stern, "Did you hear that!" ”

"Hmm." She answered in a sullen voice, and then muttered quietly, "What a murder!" ”

Tan Jiahui couldn't help laughing, and then pressed Shen Ruochu's little head subtly and lightly, forcing her to look up at herself, "Chuchu, don't say such things to me in the future." I like you as my right, and it's your freedom to choose how you choose. You don't have to feel that my liking is a burden, and don't alienate me because of this, okay? I'm going to be sad that way, and I'm going to die. ”

Shen Ruochu suddenly felt a heartache. But she clearly knew that this heartache could not be transformed into a heartbeat, so she had to bite her lip silently.

Tan Jiahui continued: "The two of us have been in a relationship for almost ten years. Your brother and I wear a pair of pants. Even as a friend or brother, if you have something, I can't shirk it! And even if an unrelated stranger asks me for help today, I won't stand idly by. What's more, it's you! ”

"Well, Erguang is a good young man!" Shen Ruochu nodded with a relieved expression.

"Of course I'm a good young man!" Tan Jiahui raised his hand and tapped her forehead in amusement.

"Oops!" Shen Ruochu shouted exaggeratedly, covered the sore spot with his other good hand, and at the same time despised him with his eyes, "Alas? You just had a line, it was from Qiong Yaoli! It sounds so familiar to me, but it's sad like I'm going to die. ”

"You found out?" Tan Jiahui laughed, "Yes." But it's not Qiong Yao, it's Xi Juan. ”

Shen Ruochu opened his mouth in surprise, "You actually know Xi Juan?!" ”

"Why can't I know about Xi Juan?" Tan Jiahui pretended to raise his eyebrows proudly, "I don't just know Xi Juan. I also know Gu Ling, Lou Yuqing, a lot. ”

Shen Ruochu was completely stunned, "Barrister Tan is really well-informed!" The little woman admires! After saying that, the two of them laughed together.

The atmosphere of sadness and embarrassment was instantly diluted.

When the laughter fell, Shen Ruochu suddenly fell silent, and the next second he seemed to be talking to himself, "Erguang, what do you like about me?" ”

"Then what do you like about Jing Yan?" Tan Jiahui didn't answer the rhetorical question, and his smile was still so light and warm.

"I don't know."

"I don't know." A trace of complicated emotions flashed in Tan Jiahui's eyes, like heartache and helplessness, and at the same time seemed to bring a little warmth and sweetness, "Probably there is no reason to really like it." To like is to like, I can't say why! ”

There have always been thousands of people and thousands of loves. But there are a few people who can tell clearly what their love is, where it comes from, and what it should look like.

I don't know where to start, and I go deeper. That's pretty much it.

"That's right." Tan Jiahui suddenly remembered something, "You fell so hard, uncle and aunt don't know yet." ”

Shen Ruochu shook his head with a sad face. Of course they don't know! Catching up with this kind of thing at such a critical moment is really in response to that sentence...... Complete one's misery!

"And how are you going to explain?" Hurting muscles and bones is not a fever and cold, and after two or three days of healing, it will be treated as if nothing has happened. Shen Ruochu's situation, if he wants to act as usual, it can't be seen from the outside, at least it will take at least a month!

"I'm ready to tell the truth!"

This answer made Tan Jiahui a little surprised. Immediately, I heard Shen Ruochu add in distress, "Of course, it's only half of it!" ”

Shen Ruochu was ready to only say that he fell, but he didn't say why. Anyway, when she was not honest since she was a child, she was constantly injured and injured. Her father and mother are used to it, and they won't investigate it deeply.

Tan Jiahui said "um", "That's okay." Did you eat at night? Hungry or not? ”

"Hungry." Shen Ruochu nodded heavily, she didn't eat seriously at noon.

"I didn't eat either." Tan Jiahui asked her while taking out his mobile phone, "KFC or McDonald's, I order takeout." ”

"How do you know I want to eat junk food right now. KFC, and then Pizza Hut, okay? I want to eat pizza. ”

"Absolutely!" Tan Jiahui said the broadcast number, and after the two takeaways were explained clearly, he just hung up the phone and saw the person on the bed looking at him, so he asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”

"That ......" Shen Ruochu stopped talking a little, "Erguang, I'm not polite to you, but you can go back after eating!" Auntie's side can't leave people. Just hire a nurse for me. ”

"It doesn't matter. I greeted them before I came out. My sister-in-law and nanny are here, and I don't have much of a role to play. I'm hiring a nurse for you tomorrow, and I'll be with you tonight! ”

…………

Not long after Zhang Yue received Jing Yan's call, he rushed to Century Jincheng.

Jing Yan can't drive after drinking. He carried Jiang Xinyue out of the room, and then took the elevator downstairs. He hesitated as he put her in the back seat. Then he bent over, closed the door, and sat in the co-pilot.

Zhang Yue's face was silent, but he was slightly surprised when he looked at his seemingly intentional alienation move. When the boss sat down and closed the car door, he asked, "Do you want to send Miss Jiang to the hotel or to her apartment?" ”

Jiang Xinyue actually doesn't come to City B very often, she has her own apartment here. But most of the time I prefer to stay in a hotel, which is more convenient.

Jing Yan pondered for a moment, "Go to her apartment." After speaking, he instructed again, "You drive steadily, don't drop her." ”

Zhang Yue answered "yes", and at the same time stepped on the accelerator and slowly turned the steering wheel.

Jiang Xinyue's residence in City B is still a Christmas gift from the three-year prospect. Located in the heart of the city's busiest district, the 27-storey high-rise serviced apartments come at a great price.

It is not close to there from Century Jincheng, and it takes half an hour to drive.

Jing Yan frowned all the way and didn't say a word. The outside light shone in through the car window and fell on his face, making it even more gloomy and unfathomable.

City B is always bustling at night, even in the cold winter. What's more, as the end of the year approaches, many businesses have extended their business hours, and some even stay overnight.

When the car came to an intersection, it caught a red light. While waiting, he turned his head to look at the lanterns on the trees on the side of the road, and his heart fluttered.

This kind of lamp, when the year before last, Shen Ruochu also bought it. She also wrapped up all the flowers and plants in the yard, even the fence on the edge of the yard.

Thinking of this, Jing Yan unconsciously hooked the corners of her mouth. Then, when the car started and he saw Jiang Xinyue's sleeping figure curled up in the rearview mirror, his mood suddenly became heavy again.

He remembered what Qi Yang had just said, true love should be able to withstand any test. Husband and wife are one, so they should share honor and disgrace. Moreover, it is impossible to look at a person's past and present, as well as the future, separately. If Shen Ruochu can't accept his past, then it will be difficult for the two of them to walk through the future together. Therefore, only honesty is the only way out of their relationship.

It's just that once he confesses, Shen Ruochu really doesn't accept it?! So what is he going to do?! At that time, I was afraid that I was going to lose her completely.

I didn't say it because I didn't think it was necessary. I don't say it now, but I can't say it because I'm afraid.

If you go back three years, it doesn't matter what happened to him. But in the past three years, she has already planted grass in his heart, and it has grown luxuriantly and burned endlessly.

Lose her...... never！ Just thinking about this result made him feel unacceptable in any case. And...... He will never allow it to happen either!
