Chapter 50

Since Jing Yehang mistakenly blamed Liu Yuyang for my coldness, then why don't I push the boat down the river and blame him for everything? He doesn't care if we hate him or not. Yes, I decided to put that sensitive and fragile pride on the shelf, just as if nothing had happened, and to keep in touch with Jing Yehang as always. Although I'm not sure if Jing Yehang underestimated me, just by the fact that he didn't hesitate to go head-to-head with Liu Yuyang in order to defend me, I can be sure that he values me very much as a friend. Thinking about it carefully, Liu Yuyang did not cause any impact or harm except for a few inexplicable words to me. However, judging from the behavior of Jing Yehang as if facing the enemy, the incident that led to their complete break must have been quite serious, so after many years, they still could not reconcile the grudge in their hearts.

It's not appropriate to intrude on a friend's privacy, but it's understandable to care about a friend. The next day, I set off early in the morning to do my homework. My excessive seriousness and concentration caused Jing Yehang to frequently cast suspicious glances. The reason why I work hard is because of one of the beliefs that is ingrained in my heart: if you do well, you will be rewarded. The reward I want is to get to know Jing Yehang's heart, and maybe it's a good choice to start talking with me and his common "enemy" Liu Yuyang.

After lunch, I plucked up the courage to mention Liu Yuyang.

"No wonder you are so diligent today, it turns out that there is a conspiracy......" Jing Yehang pursed his lips and smiled.

"Why is he bullying?" I feigned indignation.

"Bullying? It's not ......," Jing Ye Hangyun said lightly.

"It's not often said on TV that the grievances and hatreds between men are either for money or for women...... "I was probably amused by my serious appearance, and Jing Yehang sneered. I glared at him and continued: "Liu Yuyang is so rich, it shouldn't have anything to do with money...... I heard that his girlfriend is very beautiful, is it ......"

"I haven't seen his girlfriend." Jing Yehang couldn't help but smile and solemnly told me: "Remember to tell me the next time you meet her, let me see if it's really beautiful." ”

"It's not money and it's not women, so why is that?" Seeing that he looked like he had nothing to do with himself and was waiting to watch the show, I couldn't help but feel a little moved. I don't know how to understand the feelings of others calling him worthless for him......

"Although the reason is not as bloody as you think, it is not much better, so don't mention it." Jing Yehang let out a long yawn and said in a lazy tone, "I'm so sleepy...... Why don't you go for a walk? ”

Looking out the window at the scorching sun, I couldn't help but frown. "If I don't go, I'm sleepy."

"Alright then, let's get some sleep and go back when we wake up." With that, he took the blanket from the cabinet and handed it to me, and left the room in silence.

Sitting alone in the silence of my room, I felt a little lonely and uneasy. No matter what I ask Xingyuan, she will tell her the truth without reservation, and I will do the same to her. I thought it was a tacit understanding between friends, but I didn't expect Jing Yehang to think so...... I began to worry that he would get angry with me because of what I had just done, and even get bored with me. I wrapped myself tightly in a blanket and made a decision before my consciousness became blurred: I would apologize to Jing Yehang later.

I slept so deeply that I didn't even hear a knock on the door.

"Yin Ran, wake up quickly, it's going to be dark if you don't get up again......" In a hazy moment, I heard the sound of Jing Yehang.

"Uh......" I reluctantly opened my eyes and looked at the wall clock, and was suddenly completely sleepy. How did it get to four o'clock so quickly! ”

Jing Yehang pushed open the door and walked in slowly, placing a drink full of water droplets in front of me. "Drink?"

From the few remaining Xiaoice cubes inside, it can be inferred that the drink was left for at least an hour.

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner...... I've wasted so much time......" I grumbled with a bitter face.

"How can the time spent sleeping be wasted?" Jing Yehang sighed helplessly.

I picked up the straw and plunged it into the drink, taking a puff. It's peach tea...... It must have been a mistake...... I don't remember ever telling him that I like peach tea...... This familiar smell instantly evokes memories of the past buried in my heart. This is the first time I have thought of Xu Yinyao and the teddy bear keychain since I left the old school.

"Doesn't it taste good?" Jing Yehang leaned over to look at me.

"No......" I came back from the contemplation. Didn't you say you were going to go out for a walk? ”

"Oh...... Let's go. Jing Yehang tossed his unkempt hair, looking a little overwhelmed.

"I forgot to take the drink!" I barely managed to squeeze out a stiff smile. I don't know when I became bad at pretending to be funny.

"Hah!" Jing Yehang picked up his cup of drink and shook it leisurely. He apparently didn't notice the truth behind my smile, which was what I was happy to see......

There is a gentle slope next to the river near Jing Ye Hang's house, and the slope is lined with green trees and flowers, making it the first place for nearby residents to take a walk. We walked up the slope, accompanied by the scent of flowers and the chirping of insects and birds, and looked down on the scenery on both sides of the riverbank.

"I really envy the people who live here." I glanced at the unique cluster of single-family houses built on the side of the ramp and said, "They can enjoy such a beautiful view every day when they open their windows......

"Can't I see the river in my house?" Jing Yehang muttered.

I could hear the awkwardness in his tone, and I couldn't help but wonder a little. It is an indisputable fact that the terrain of his house is not as high as here, and the environment is not as quiet as here. However, I didn't want to spoil his good mood, so I casually chimed in: "Yes, and the transportation near your house is convenient. "The gate of the Internet café is facing the road, and the main reason for the noise is the daily traffic of people and cars.

"Yes......" Jing Yehang shyly accepted my compliment.

Looking at Jing Yehang, who had the corners of his mouth raised, I suddenly understood his mood. I forgot that it was the place where Jing Yehang's mother lived, and it was full of memories of their mother and son living together. He couldn't have been a favourite of it. I bowed my head silently, but felt guilty and sad.

After walking for a while, Jing Yehang opened a new topic with a lot of words. "That's right...... Why did Liu Yuyang say that you are my girlfriend? ”

"It's a rumor made up by others, I didn't say that! Really......" I replied shyly and anxiously, nearly flattening my glass.

"I'm sure you didn't say it...... After all, it's no good to be my girlfriend......" After speaking, Jing Yehang smiled indifferently.

How could it be! If I hadn't choked on the drink, I would have burst out of my mouth and fall into regret and self-blame. At this time, a long-haired dog running towards Jing Yehang with his tail wagging his tail rescued me.

"Hey! Little toffee, long time no see! Jing Yehang hurriedly squatted down to greet the enthusiastic long-haired dog.

When I looked closely, I found that the long-haired dog was one meter long. I was amazed at how huge it was, even intimidating.

"It's called Milk Candy, it's an ancient shepherd dog, it's very docile, you can pet it." Jing Yehang hugged the back of the long-haired dog with one hand and stroked its neck with the other, looking very happy.

I looked at the shaggy dog's innocent appearance and big pink tongue, and hesitated.

"It turns out that Niu Niu ran to find her brother." An aunt walked up to us slowly, apparently the owner of the long-haired dog. I learned from my aunt's words that the long-haired dog was a little girl who was less than three years old, and Niuniu was its nickname. "Classmate, my aunt told you that Ah Hang is very kind-hearted. There were a few times when the aunt couldn't take care of Niuniu because of something, so it was all up to Ah Hang to take her home and take care of it. Niuniu, you tell your sister, is your brother good to you? ”

Hearing this, the long-haired dog barked lightly, which was considered to have answered. Seeing the long-haired dog squinting and resting his head on Jing Yehang's shoulder, his throat making a hissing sound from time to time, looking sloppy and clingy, I couldn't help but laugh.

"Give me your hand." Jing Yehang turned back to look at me.

"What......" I crouched timidly behind him and reached for my hand.

Jing Yehang took my hand and touched the round head of the long-haired dog. Although the body temperature of a long-haired dog is higher than that of a human, at that time I could only feel the heat of Jing Yehang's palm.

"Is it fun?" Jing Yehang smiled at me.

The fur of a long-haired dog is coarse, yet soft, and has a wonderful touch. "Hmm......" I blushed and withdrew my hand.

After reluctantly saying goodbye to the long-haired dog, Jing Yehang and I continued to walk towards the top of the slope. I wish I could meet a few more acquaintances and learn more about the night sail from them, so I don't care how long it will take to reach the top of the slope. Along the way, I met a few dogs and their owners who knew Jing Yehang. The owners of the dogs all praised the night voyage, which made me proud.

"You love dogs so much, why don't you get one?" As soon as I got out of the air, I realized that I had lost my words. Because he's going to study abroad in the lunar year...... I'm stupid......

After being silent for a while, Jing Yehang replied calmly: "Later...... Wait for me to be financially independent and have my own home......"

"Your own home?" Could it be that the place where he lives now does not belong to their family?

"My grandfather was angry with my mother, so he made a will to leave all his property to my uncle, including the house. But my uncle wants to divide life and death with me. After speaking, Jing Yehang chuckled.

"I see......" I glanced at him worriedly.

"Don't worry about me, I have savings, and my uncle won't leave me alone."

"Oh......" I struggled for a long time, and finally decided to swallow the comforting words back in my stomach.

"It's getting dark, let's go back......"

I stopped in amazement and said to myself: I haven't reached the top of the slope yet......

On the way back, I once again felt deep regret and self-blame for my stupidity......
