Even the only bit of warmth was told one night that that person would never appear again.
He realized he wouldn't get more, and learned not to hope for more.
He lies to himself: he doesn't like anything.
Gradually, that emotion called liking quietly passed away in his heart, as if... he really didn't like it anymore.
Until that day, he met Mo Qin.
He fell in love with a beautiful and bright girl. He never thought that he would get her. He only occasionally followed his heart and made some small moves.
When I get a little closer, I feel very happy.
But that's all.
But now, the person he likes blocks him in a corner...
Confess to him.
He was timid, but he couldn't lie to her.
Xie Chen's voice was low, but the last one was obviously louder than the previous one:
"I like it, I like it."
Mo Qin pursed her lips, feeling a little complicated inside.
After hearing her confession, this man's mood was actually sadness? ?
Her mind has already begun to dream up ridiculous plots, and she follows the temptation:
"Then why can't you be my boyfriend? If you have any problems, you can tell them. Only when you know the problems can you find a solution..."
Xie Chen suddenly leaned forward and hugged Mo Qin, holding her tightly in his arms:
"Nothing is impossible."
Everything you said is fine.
Then, let you belong to me for the time being.
Mo Qin: "..."
She was ready to hear a bloody story.
That's it?
She hugged Xie Chen back and patted his back comfortingly, but she could still feel that the man was not in high spirits.
After a moment, she raised her head, her eyes sparkling, and said with a smile:
"So, boyfriend, are you planning to...stay the night?"
Xie Chen's original mixed feelings of joy and sorrow suddenly shattered.
What to stay...stay the night!
He stammered: "No... you can't."
Of course Mo Qin knew that he would not agree, so saying this was just to adjust the atmosphere.
Seeing Xie Chen's stunned look, Mo Qin felt a little strange. She stood on tiptoes and kissed Xie Chen's lips.
Just touch and leave.
"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. There are still things to do tomorrow."
After saying that, she turned on the lights in the room and walked inside.
She did have a good sleep in the car, but Xie Chen probably didn't sleep at all. It was already two o'clock in the morning, and staying up late was not good for her health.
It's impossible to get through this without getting tired.
Xie Chen stood at the door with no intention of following her. He looked at the girl's graceful back with dark eyes.
"You haven't given me the key card yet."
Mo Qin turned to look at him, "Room card? Didn't you put it in your coat pocket a long time ago?"
Xie Chen reached out and touched it, and sure enough he found the room key card in his pocket.
When did she put it in?
When we were hugging you just now?
He looked at Mo Qin a few more times before opening the door and going out.
By the time he finished washing and tidying up, the time had indeed reached three o'clock.
There is an unread message on your phone.
Qinqin: Good night, boyfriend, okay~
He also posted a cute emoticon at the end.
Xie Chen's first reaction was why he didn't say anything just now, but he still said good night in a decent manner.
As if he thought that wasn't enough, he added another expression.
Mo Qin seemed to have fallen asleep and did not reply to him.
A small lamp buried in the wall of the room gave off a faint light. Xie Chen lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, his vision gradually blurred.
His consciousness was hazy, and he didn't know when he fell asleep.
This night I seemed to have slept and yet not slept.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already bright.
Because he stayed up late, his eyes were a little dry. Xie Chen sat up from the bed and rubbed his forehead, his consciousness still fully recovered.
It seemed like... I had a dream last night.
He laughed to himself, and then fell back on the bed. He didn't know what he was thinking of but couldn't help but chuckle.
The phone that was thrown on the bedside vibrated slightly, and someone sent a message.
Xie Chen fumbled for his phone, took it over and opened it, his eyes widened immediately.
There are several messages in it.
Qinqin: Good morning, boyfriend~
More than ten minutes passed.
Qinqin: Are you still sleeping? Then I’ll go out first.
More than an hour later.
Qinqin: Are you awake? What kind of breakfast do you want? I’ll bring some back for you.
Qinqin: Then I’ll just bring some with me.
The last one was the one she just sent, saying that she had come back and asked him if he was awake.
And it's already past ten in the morning.
Xie Chen quickly got up from the bed and ran to wash up.
-
Five minutes later, Mo Qin heard a knock on the door.
Xie Chen had finished washing and changed his clothes and was standing outside the door. He was obviously a little cautious at this time.
"The types of breakfast here seem to be different from ours. I bought two kinds. I don't know if you are used to eating them."
This mode of getting along seemed to be no different from before, and the tension in Xie Chen's heart slowly subsided.
While eating breakfast, he listened to the news that Mo Qin went out to inquire about this morning.
The Sun family lives in the westernmost part of the town. There is an ancient house there. It is said that it was left by the ancestors of the Sun family.
The Sun family is quite famous in this town, and everyone in this place must respect the Sun family.
If people in the town encounter something in that area, they will come to ask for advice with sincerity.
Elderly people all praise Old Man Sun as a very capable person.
"I already know the location of the Sun family. Should we visit directly? Or..."
Xie Chen ate both breakfasts. In fact, the portions were not big, so it was just enough to finish.
"Let's pay a visit today. If it doesn't work, think of another way."
There was no detailed record of the Sun family being removed from the list, but if it wasn't a big deal, how could it be removed? I'm afraid the higher-ups had sealed off the real reason.
After breakfast, the two went to Sun's house.
-
The Sun family's house really has a quaint feel, although I don't know how many times it has been renovated.
There are only two old people and one helper at home, and both old people seem to be in good spirits.
The maid was a woman in her forties. She led Mo Qin and Xie Chen into the living room and poured tea.
Nearly ten minutes later, Old Man Sun arrived belatedly. His hair was already graying, and some of his tall and straight figure could be glimpsed from his old figure.
One of his eyes was missing, leaving only a black hole in the socket. The whites of the other eye were yellow but his eyes were still sharp.
Old Man Sun walked over to the main seat and sat down. He glanced over with sharp eyes and his tone was not polite.
"You two are not from this town."
"I don't know why you two come to my humble house?"
Xie Chen was not intimidated by his momentum at all, but directly revealed his identity, saying that he came here because he wanted to investigate something, and hoped that Mr. Sun could cooperate.
After hearing the identities of the two people, Mr. Sun lost even the slightest bit of politeness. He waved his sleeves and said angrily:
"see a visitor out!"
"You are not welcome in the Sun family!"
