Chapter 20: If Love Has Providence (4)
Cao Aiqing seemed to be able to hear the calmness in He Tiantian's words, and this calmness suddenly made the girl a little confused......
In the past, when facing He Tianran, the other party always showed deep guilt towards himself, even if he was angry, pleading, or the calmness of inviting him to the family banquet, he had never been as calm as this.
Is this a good state?
At present, Cao Aiqing cannot make an accurate judgment.
She just felt that He Tianran was now in a delicate stage, just like Cao Aiqing as a victim, of course she didn't want He Tianran to live well, and it turned out that everything he had with Wen Liang before seemed to be good, but in the end it all disappeared.
It stands to reason that Cao Aiqing should be happy, because the pair of "lovers" who have harmed him all his life are finally separated by Lao Yan, and since then they have been separated into two worlds and will never see each other.
There should be no more relieving ending than this!
However, this ending was caused by He Tianran himself under known circumstances.
This is the root knot that makes Cao Aiqing at a loss......
It's as if the girl was holding a knife in her hand, He Tianran made a mistake, and it should be up to him to kill or chop, but when he appeared in front of her again, his body was already covered with bloody knife cuts, and he smiled in a miserable way, as if to say:
"I'm here to atone for my sins, stick your knife in here, so it hurts me more......"
He Tianran's punishment of himself was far more tragic than the revenge that Cao Aiqing could imagine......
Even now, he can use sentences from some books and say something like an epitaph.
Even if Cao Aiqing and He Tianran are the same kind of people, but after thinking about it, she can only say one sentence based on her feelings:
"He Tianran, you are really ...... now There is no vitality at all. β
Lost in spirit.
Cao Aiqing's words are quite accurate.
He Tianran laughed and pretended to be unharmed: "Ai Qing, I don't think we should discuss this now, and I don't think it's a bad thing for me, people, sometimes I have experienced too much, and I really don't have any interest in some things." I can only tell you about these things, and if I do the same to others, I guess I will think that I am hypocritical. β
In the past, He Tiantian's smile, whether it was joy, anger and sadness, was somewhat alive with a young man, even if he had future memories later, the emotion in his eyebrows and eyes was never extinguished.
It's just that now, his smile is so boring and strange in Cao Aiqing's eyes.
Even if he dyed his hair black again and tried his best to pretend to be a teenager, it still couldn't change the fact that this young body carried a gradually aging soul.
"It seems that I am thinking too much this time, I really shouldn't let Guo Huai test you, you can't do this kind of thing now, He Tianran."
Cao Aiqing stood up and prepared to leave.
She didn't know whether she was more disappointed or happy in the face of the current He Tianran.
The girl turned around, only to hear He Tianran come from behind in response to what she had just said.
"It's okay, I hope you can solve this matter smoothly, I believe you."
Cao Aiqing's steps as he left suddenly paused.
She turned her head again and asked the last question of the trip:
"He Tianran, is there anything else you care about in this world now?"
Hearing this, the calm man was stunned for a moment, he frowned and thought hard, and then asked in a deep voice:
ββ¦β¦ Ai Qing, how are you doing now? β
"What?"
"That's you...... The other 'she' in the body, how is it going? β
Cao Aiqing's willow eyebrows raised slightly, she finally found a little fun in the conversation with He Tianran, she asked playfully:
"You're finally admitting now that I'm not alone with 'her'?"
He Tianran also made a rare joke about Cao Aiqing, and said with a dumb riddle:
"If you see things that are not the same, you will see them as they are."
"What do you mean?"
"Diamond Sutra, you are so pious when you worship the Buddha, you should be able to understand what I said."
"You, a person who can't even cross the threshold of the Buddha hall, still have a fancy to the Buddhist scriptures?"
"Flip through it once in a while."
"If you continue like this, I think becoming a monk is the only way out for you."
He Tianran, who was inadvertently conceived by Cao Ai's Qingdian Center, was silent, and the girl thought that he was waiting for her to answer, and said:
"She's still there, and even now she's watching you like I do."
He Tianran said bluntly: "I want to talk to 'her'. β
Cao Aiqing flatly refused: "Impossible, but according to what you said before, you told me the same." β
The man and woman looked at each other, and after a sigh, He Tianran said softly: "Then you see if this will work, this cyberbullying incident, you don't need to call me, I will take the initiative to help you find out, and after the matter is completed, I beg you, let me talk to 'her'." β
He Tianran in this state is what Cao Aiqing wants to see the most, and she joked:
"Didn't you just say you believed you could solve it?"
Cao Aiqing stroked the hair next to her ears, she looked condescendingly at He Tianran, who was sitting in the same place and pleading to herself, she seemed to have grasped what this man who seemed to be invincible and had no desires wanted something.
That's what makes it interesting.
The corners of the girl's mouth outlined a graceful arc that was different from ever, pure and amorous, cold and sharp with a shallow smile.
"I believe it, but it doesn't conflict with what I'm asking for, if you still need me."
"I don't need you to ......" Cao Aiqing, who was standing, slowly bullied herself, her hands were propped up on the table, her upper body slowly leaned out, she looked directly at He Tianran, her head was slightly tilted, and she said word by word: "But you're begging me now, aren't you?" β
If you look at the side of the two at this time, Cao Aiqing's upper body at this time, from the hips to the waist, from the back to the neck, is like a swan bending over, pulling out an undulating and seductive curve and bowing flat.
He Tianran, who was just facing Cao Aiqing, had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery unfolded between the other party's unconscious, he just stared at Cao Aiqing's moving familiar face, and said:
"That's right."
"Tell me clearly, you're begging me?"
ββ¦β¦ I beg you. β
As soon as Cao Aiqing heard these three words, he immediately withdrew his body.
"Okay, as long as you can fix this matter, then I'll let you ......"
"Ai Qingβ"
At this moment, when Cao Aiqing was about to accept He Tianran's request, a male voice suddenly came from behind her, and He Tianran also tilted his head slightly, looked past Cao Aiqing's body, and looked behind her.
It was a slightly more mature man than an ordinary college student, who looked like he should be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, handsome, tall, and looked like a light mature man in the city, knowing that he was in the library now, so when the other party called out the girl's name, he had lowered his voice and walked very close.
Cao Aiqing looked a little surprised.
"Brother Qiu Xu, why did you come in?"
The man smiled and explained, "I didn't wait for you and Guo Huai to come out outside, so I came in and took a look, you ......"
His eyes swept back and forth between He Tianran and Cao Aiqing.
"It's okay, we're done."
Cao Aiqing replied, and the man named "Qiu Xu" took the initiative to stretch out his hand to He Tianran.
"Hello, Shen Qiuxu, a graduate of the Department of Architecture."
"Ah, hello senior, He Tianran, a junior in the Department of Finance."
He Tianran also stood up politely at this time.
"Naturally, I've heard of you, Ai Qing mentioned to me before that you and Guo Huai were both friends she made in high school."
Shen Qiuxu was polite, and when he saw him enter, Guo Huai, who had been waiting far away just now, also came over.
When He Tianran heard the name Shen Qiuxu at first glance, he was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he could only smile and say: "Yes, we are old classmates with Ai Qing, Senior Shen, you and Ai Qing ......."
"That's the case, my mentor is taking me to do things now, Ai Qing sometimes comes over to help us, hasn't this happened to her in the past two days, so a few of our friends will help her, think of a way, and give her a clean ......"
Shen Qiuxu explained, and Cao Aiqing on the side probably didn't like to talk about these things in front of He Tianran, so she interrupted:
"Okay, Brother Qiuxu, I'm done talking about what I want to talk about with Nature, Guo Huai, let's go back, we've been chatting in the library, and it will also disturb Nature's work."
After that, she was going to call the two of them to leave, Shen Qiuxu nodded slightly, and he smiled apologetically at He Tianran, which could be regarded as an apology for this abrupt meeting.
"Guo Huai, you wait for a while, I have something to tell you."
He Tianran stopped Guo Huai, who was about to leave, and the latter followed him to his side, beckoning to Cao and Shen to say goodbye.
Looking at the back of the two leaving, Guo Huai asked He Tianran beside him:
"Naturally, what's the matter?"
"Come with me out for a cigarette."
"Okay."
Guo Huai agreed, and the two left through the side door of the library and entered a secluded alley on campus.
Near the trail, you can occasionally see some students walking by, or reciting English with their heads bored, and chanting words in their mouths; Or in groups of three or five, hooking shoulders and backs to talk and laugh, this kind of moonlit and starry night is naturally indispensable for couples to go on a date and walk.
Along the way, a cluster of flames lit up, and then two sparks flew in the air like fireflies.
"Huh~ natural, what are you going to tell me?"
Guo Huai spat out smoke from his mouth and asked.
He Tianran said: "Smoking, it's nothing, by the way, last time you told me about the person who was closer to Ai Qing, it was Senior Shen just now, right?" β
"Yes, that's him!"
"What's the matter, you're a student union cadre, and you still have a sense of crisis?"
"It's not the same thing......"
"I feel like it's the same thing for you."
ββ¦β¦ Oops, tsk. Guo Huai was a little frustrated and said: "Naturally, if I can be successfully elected as the president of the student union this time, do you think I can catch up with Ai Qing?" β
He Tianran didn't think about it, and spit out a word: "Hanging." β
"Why?"
He Tianran stared at the cigarette butt in his hand and said casually: "People who can become the president of the Shanghai Hong Kong Student Union will not think about this kind of problem." β
"I mean seriously......"
"I'm serious, too."
He Tianran looked at Guo Huai, who was cramped and wanted to speak, and urged: "Say what you want to say, give you time for a cigarette." β
This honest boy from the countryside hesitated for a moment, even if he has now found his value through hard work in the school, but when he thinks of his beloved girl, he is still inevitably submissive.
"I ...... I've always felt unworthy of Ai Qing. β
"Why do you feel unworthy?"
"Because a lot...... In fact, I also found out that when the three of us chatted in the past, I could only sit stunned next to me, unable to answer anything, and could only listen to you......
I found that the things we play since we were young are different, naturally what do you say about video games, playgrounds, what were you forced to practice when you were young, and you were forced by your parents to train this and that.
Ai Qing learned to draw and write when he was a child, and traveled with his elders on vacation......
As for me, when I was a child, I was crazy playing in the ridges in the countryside, I didn't know what video games were, and I didn't know what to divide writing, my mother told me to study hard, and I went out to play when I was told to go out, and even hamburgers were the first time I ate them after I arrived in Hong Kong City in high school......
Naturally, I like Ai Qing, but ...... I didn't have the confidence to approach her, I kept trying to get closer to her, but I found that I ...... I still can't make up for the gap between me and her, so, you're right, Senior Shen's appearance this time has brought me a great sense of crisis. β
He Tianran listened silently, without sarcasm or comfort, but said:
"These are not reasons, Guo Huai, you keep saying that you haven't experienced this, you haven't experienced that, and it's important to have common preferences, but the day we were born, didn't anyone know anyone? You said that you are going to be the president of the student union, will Ai Qing love you, this is ridiculous, Lao Guo.
Ai Qing may not care if the person she loves is the student council president, so what's the use of you burying your head in hard work and moving yourself?
Yes, there can be a gap between you, one in heaven and one on the ground, but aren't you friends now? Haven't you thought that you can create some shared memories and experiences together?
Do you still feel like you don't have anything to talk about? β
After Guo Huai listened, he was deeply touched, and was about to speak again, but He Tianran threw the cigarette butt in his hand, clapped his hands, and took the lead in saying:
"Alright, it's time for a cigarette, now let's get down to business."
"Huh? What's the matter? β
He Tianran turned around, he was still as calm as water, his eyes were like torches at the moment, he looked at Guo Huai, and asked:
"Guo Huai, just now it was because your mobile phone was always on and you knew that Cao Aiqing was listening, so you chose to refuse those suggestions to me, right?"
Guo Huai never expected that He Tianran, who had been with him just now, would talk about this......
"IβOf course I'm not......"
His steps subconsciously stepped back.
"Then what were you hesitating about?"
"I ......"
"Do you know, Guo Huai, Ai Qing asked me just now, she couldn't see your expression clearly on the phone, and I also said that you love her, do you know what this means?"
Guo Huai's Adam's apple shook slightly.
"What does it ...... to stand for"
Bang β
Before he could finish speaking, a gust of wind suddenly sounded in his ears, and then, he felt a huge force hit his cheeks, causing him to lose his feet, let out a miserable scream, and suddenly fell to the ground with a "thud".
Great pain came from the right side of his face, Guo Huai's eyes were full of stars, his head was dizzy, he wanted to shout, question, and get angry, but before that, he was scared back by He Tianran's words-
"Guo Huai, how much do you say you like Ai Qing, how much you love him, but in the end you rely on this crooked way? Is this love!! Do you want to hurt her, or do you want to love her?!! Wake up, Guo Huai!!
The gap between your low self-esteem and what you think is the biggest obstacle that prevents you from loving someone, not the senior Shen who appears now! β
