Xia Meng walked out, and saw him sitting there, motionless, and there was no glass of water or anything in front of him, so he went over and poured him a glass, and then, sitting opposite him, he also poured himself a glass.

There is underfloor heating in the house, so the water was hot when it was delivered, and it is still lukewarm.

After a cup of belly, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

In the end, it was Xia Meng who opened his mouth first and asked directly.

"You're going to join the army?"

"Hmm."

"Yes...... Because of my two things? ”

“……”

This made Xing Zhao a little unsure of how to continue, after all, eighty percent of his thoughts were for his cousin and the Gu family, but if he really wanted to talk about it, there would be one or two escapes.

And his failure to open his mouth made Xia Meng misunderstand, and thought that he was indeed like this, so he said after breathing a sigh of relief.

"The incident of that day was not a big deal for me, and after that, you kept saying that you were responsible and responsible, but I didn't see your sincerity, so I kept avoiding you, but after talking with Jingyi today, I also feel that I should give you a chance to talk about it seriously, so, now I ask you, what you said you are responsible for me, what are you for, do you understand?"

Xia Meng's openness made Xing Zhao a little at a loss.

He said that he was responsible, and he was indeed responsible, after all, he ruined the reputation of other girls like this, and he couldn't say it if he wasn't responsible.

But obviously Xia Meng is not that kind of person, if she wants to enter a marriage, she must be happy with each other, not for the so-called responsibility, therefore, she will ask such a question, but Xing Zhao is naturally a little unable to answer such a sharp question, so he is silent.

Xia Meng was a rare patient, and he didn't rush or wait for him to speak, just to hear his true thoughts.

Perhaps it was because of her relaxation that Xing Zhao found a breakthrough in this problem, which had plagued him for many days and nights, at this moment, so he slowly spoke in that direction.

"I used to have a person I liked, but unfortunately I couldn't wait for me to come to the door to propose, and their family married her, so I was silent for several years, looking merry and happy, but in fact, I couldn't slow down from that incident, so that she has been married and had children for many years, and I still have that obsession in my heart, so I will delay the days to come."

"Then, in fact, my feelings for her have faded a lot, and I don't even feel like anything when I think about it, but I'm used to being alone, and there is no one around me, so I'm still alone."

He spoke slowly, as if he had dissected what he had hidden for years.

Although it was a little difficult to speak, I don't know why, the person sitting opposite was Xia Meng, and he could tell it.

"Later, it happened to you and me, I said at the time that I wanted to be responsible because I really wanted to be responsible, no matter what, your innocence was ruined in my hands, and I had the responsibility and obligation to take this matter, but ......"

"But I've never seen a woman like you, don't scold or scream when you encounter such a thing, don't let me care, so I did have some thoughts of escaping at that time, as for now I want to join the army, I won't hide it from you, eighty percent is because of the Gu family and cousin, and two percent is because of you and me, I know that you have never taken a fancy to me, so I won't force it anymore."

As he spoke, he took out a box and handed it over solemnly.

Xia Meng was a little puzzled, and then opened the box, which contained a thick pile of land deeds and shops, to say the least, things worth hundreds of thousands of taels.

"What do you mean? Give me money to send me? ”

"No, you misunderstood, these are the private houses I have saved for so many years, there are twelve shops and three houses in them, although the things are not much, but it is no problem to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, since you don't like me to be responsible for the matter, then I won't mention it again, but since I have done something wrong, I should make up for it, so you don't feel anything, I just hope that you will have a good life for the rest of your life."

Then Xing Zhao was afraid that Xia Meng would be angry, so he hurriedly added.

"If you see these things as an eyesore, you can dispose of them at will, and it's okay to exchange them for money and send them to Jishantang, or you can spend them indiscriminately, and I don't know when I'll come back, so you can dispose of it."

His words made Xia Meng feel a little funny, not that he was insincere, but that he had a kind of childishness that broke the jar.

And Xing Zhao didn't know if what he had just said was useless, so his cheeks were a little red, if he was still a hairy boy in his teens, he was afraid that he would have to scratch his head at this moment to relieve his embarrassment.

Xia Meng can be regarded as a human being in two lives, and a man like Xing Zhao has really never met him.

In the past, she naturally fell in love, but she separated from that person without even holding hands, so she has little experience in love or love.

When encountering such a situation, you will instinctively escape, and at the same time, you will be annoyed that you have pushed the situation like this, which is indeed a bit inappropriate.

So, that's where today's conversation comes in.

"You are sincere, and you didn't make up nonsense to fool me."

"How old am I, and I'm not a child, besides, you're so smart, if I lied to someone, and you found out in the end, wouldn't I be looking for death?"

When the two of them spoke, they both had a sense of relaxation, both in the past and now.

Xia Meng looked at his eyes, although it was not clear, but there was also the stability and calmness that had been precipitated over the years, and then he asked.

"Do you have to go?"

"Well, I've already figured out that it's better to stay away than stay here and fight all day long."

"Is life hard in the barracks?"

"Physically, I am naturally a lot tired, but my heart is very full, and now that I think back, my happiest days were the years when I was in the Gu family army with my cousin."

Xia Meng nodded, then accepted the box, and said unceremoniously.

"Since you sent the things, then I won't shirk it, but it's a temporary safekeeping for you, if you don't have money to spend one day, come and tell me, I will return it to you as it is!"

Xing Zhao probably didn't expect the final result to be like this, so he was stunned for a moment but nodded quickly, and the corners of his mouth rose, which can be regarded as the real emotion released these days.

"Okay."

"The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, you should be careful, not every time you are so lucky." (End of chapter)
