Chapter 396 is somewhat similar
Chu Tiankuo took her hand and didn't let her go: "Smoke." You're going to stay here. This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, where do you want to go? In the words, on the surface, he accused Smoke of being greedy and running around, but in fact revealed his worries and his care and love for her.
Chu Tiankuo's hand holding the cigarette incense was kind and natural, not awkward or pretentious. This subtle movement touched Xia Wenxuan's senses. Intuition told her that Chu Tiankuo and Yanxiang were not as simple as brothers and sisters from the same family. Her sharp instincts made her very uneasy.
Xia Wenxuan stopped crying, squeezed out a smile with difficulty, and said to Chu Tiankuo: "Are you worried that my father will be unfavorable to Sister Yanxiang?" You can rest assured, with me here, I will be able to protect you. ”
Chu Tiankuo coughed and said quietly: "Thank you, Wen Xuan." You're really different from your dad. ”
Xia Wenxuan smiled at Chu Tiankuo, and it was very charming and moving.
Seeing this, Smoke Incense struck a spirit. Her eyes dimmed, and the displeasure in her eyes quickly disappeared.
Realizing the subtle change in the incense, Chu Tiankuo shook her hand, increased his strength, and coughed helplessly.
Xia Wenxuan clearly saw the small movements of the two people in front of her, and her expression was stunned. She felt like a tree that sprouted in the spring, suddenly encountered severe cold, and suddenly withered.
After a while, Xia Wenxuan looked at Chu Tiankuo with strange eyes, and asked in a muffled voice: "The person you love, is she her?" ”
Chu Tiankuo looked at the incense of smoke, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he nodded honestly.
Smoke returned him with a gentle smile.
Xia Wenxuan's heart was inexplicably panicked, her heart shrank into a ball and then soaked in sour water and couldn't get out. She looked at Chu Tiankuo deeply, her eyes almost like she wanted to see through him, and her heart ached: "Young Master Chu, you tell me the truth." Have you ever liked me? Haven't you ever had a little bit of a heart for me? ”
This question is difficult for Chu Tiankuo. No matter how he seemed to answer, it was wrong. He said that if he liked it, it would be absolutely self-defeating. But did he tell her plainly, confess it to her? He never liked her. Never had a heart for her, not even for a moment.
He couldn't do such a cruel thing. He was afraid that he would scare Xia Wenxuan, who was still sick, and he couldn't withstand this blow.
However, he was even more reluctant to deceive in good faith, saying that he had a heart for her. This will make her think about it, and it will only increase her suffering.
Yanxiang saw the embarrassment of the senior brother and said softly: "I'll answer this question for him." To be honest, my senior brother doesn't know either. ”
Ji Wenxuan had already determined that Chu Tiankuo didn't have her in his heart and never liked her. Her tears kept rolling down, and she closed her eyes in despair.
The atmosphere in the inner hall was heavy and suffocating, and no one spoke.
After a while, Yanxiang let go of Chu Tiankuo's hand and whispered to him, "Senior brother, you go and wait for me outside the door." I have a few words to say to Sister Xia alone. ”
Chu Tiankuo glanced at the cigarette incense suspiciously, and hesitated. Looking at the serious expression on her face, he couldn't help but be in a trance, but nodded in a ghostly manner. He knows that although the cigarette is a child's heart, it is nonsense. However, she came from people and was measured. Xia Wenxuan is so sick that the cigarette will not bully her.
Realizing that he was leaving, Xia Wenxuan raised her head. In the haze of tears, he stared blankly at Chu Tiankuo's back as he walked towards the door. She was so reluctant and distraught that she stopped shedding tears.
It was as if she wanted to cry when she saw him. She didn't want to cry to get his attention and gain his sympathy. It's just that as soon as I saw him, those thoughts and grievances all came up, and I couldn't stop the tears. And as soon as he left her sight, her heart was empty and uncomfortable, but she couldn't cry.
Seeing that Xia Wenxuan stopped crying, Yanxiang's emotions calmed down a little, and then said, "Sister Xia, there is something, I think I should be honest with you." ”
Xia Wenxuan looked at the cigarette and spit out two words expressionlessly: "You say." ”
Smoke Xiang pondered and said, "You and my senior brother met for the last time, and I was also present. I've seen with my own eyes that you're so angry that you're fainting from him. ”
Hearing this, Xia Wenxuan's heart was suffocated. It was as if the air around her had been sucked away, and the feeling of suffocation tightly surrounded Xia Wenxuan. She still feels very uncomfortable when she thinks about that day. The feeling of being on the verge of fainting, a dark feeling in front of her eyes, despair and helplessness wrapped around her tightly.
She clearly remembered Chu Tiankuo's cold words, and he shook his hands and left ruthlessly, completely ignoring her life or death. He is such a gentle, considerate and tender-minded person. How much he hated her when he did that.
Thinking of this, her tears unconsciously welled up again.
Yanxiang took a long breath and continued, "Sister Xia. Actually, he is not ruthless to you. He deliberately says those nasty things to irritate you, just to make you hate him. He deliberately distances himself from you and ignores you, just to make you completely dead. He doesn't really care if you live or die. He did this in the hope that you would let go of him and live your life well. Today, when he learned that you were sick, he immediately came to see you. He still has affection for you. At least, he's a friend when you're a friend. If you have wasted yourself like this, he will feel uncomfortable and feel guilty. ”
Xia Wenxuan calmed down, listened to the smoke and said such a long time, and her heart suddenly brightened. I see. He said those words on purpose, for her own good. However, no one understood his good intentions.
In that large paragraph, what impressed Xia Wenxuan deeply was the sentence: He still has affection for you. At the very least, he would feel guilty for her. Repeating this sentence, Xia Wenxuan became a little happy.
The cheeks, which had always been pale, were stained with a beautiful flush, and on them shone with a joyful laugh, like a bright and beautiful cloud hanging on a sunny day after a storm.
She cried one moment and laughed the other, which was very inexplicable.
The smoke was a little crying and laughing. Seeing that Xia Wenxuan was a little moody, she was secretly surprised, shouldn't she be crazy? She never expected that Xia Wenxuan would be so emotionally recurrent that she couldn't help but be stunned. The elder brother said that she was a child. From this point of view, if Xia Wenxuan is not crazy, she is a little similar to her.
In Yanxiang's stunned eyes, Xia Wenxuan suddenly said, "I know he doesn't love me." I didn't force it. As long as he is my friend and can talk to him once in a while, I am satisfied. ”
She didn't force it. The point is, even if she wants to force it, can she force it? One crying, two troubles, and three hangings proved useless.
The cigarette couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. Xia Wenxuan only asked to be friends with the senior brother and talk occasionally, such a requirement is really not high.
