Shang Lu didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Or maybe she didn't know how to deal with this unexpected surprise. Fate suddenly gave her a gift that she never thought she could get.
Something she once wanted so badly was presented to her in another better way after she decided to give up.
Shang Lu wanted to agree, but he felt a little overwhelmed.
Just now, Xue Zishan praised Cheng Baojiao for being well-behaved.
But in fact, these two words have nothing to do with her.
If he had to use an animal to describe himself, Shang Lu would choose a hedgehog without hesitation.
She felt like she was covered in thorns, and her attitude toward the world was often harsh. She had always been used to protecting herself in this way.
It was only because Xue Zishan and Wang Rong were so good to her that she would restrain her sharp thorns when she was with them on weekdays for fear of hurting them.
Shang Lu let go of his hand helplessly, looked at Xue Zishan, and whispered, "But I'm not as good as you think. I have many shortcomings. I'm not well-behaved, really."
The assistant drove over to pick Shang Lu up.
Xue Zishan was stunned, and the next second she covered her lips with her hands, and her eyes were instantly filled with tears.
Shang Lu's mind was still a little confused, and she couldn't help asking, "I am an adult now, not a child anymore. What if I make other mistakes in the future? I might... maybe, maybe I'm not a very good daughter."
The joy on Wang Rong's face could not be concealed. He wiped his tears and laughed again.
These few words were like a magic spell. Ever since she could remember, her father would accuse her of them every time he was angry.
This is usually a gift that a child receives when he or she is one month old or one year old. Now she has it, and she also has relatives who care about her and love her.
She was a gentle elder, and every word she said soothed Shang Lu's hidden self-doubt and anxiety.
"Oh, that's great." Duan Anguo grinned and said, "I'll go find Xiao Cheng and Xiao Shen to see if we can change the show tonight. It's such a nice day, we must go out for dinner together. Baojiao and I are witnesses!"
"I'm not clever, obedient, or careful. I'm clumsy sometimes. When I was a kid, I broke something very important at home. My family doesn't like me very much. Sometimes my mouth is faster than my brain. I just told Brother Duan's secret. And I don't have any special abilities. I'm just very ordinary..."
Sitting in the back row, Shang Lu held a longevity lock in her hand, which was a gift from Wang Rong and Xue Zishan.
"Don't interrupt." Xue Zishan glanced at Wang Rong unhappily, holding Shang Lu's hand with one hand and gently stroking her face with the other hand, and continued: "As for your mouth being faster than your brain, it's because you don't have any bad intentions, so you can speak your mind directly. And you are not ordinary at all. Our Lulu is always very attentive when learning acting, takes work very seriously, and has good acting skills. How can this be ordinary? Obviously, you are amazing."
It was great that they could meet Shang Lu.
Until after dinner in the evening.
Everyone understood.
After much selection, she finally chose this longevity lock.
Even if it is a lie, hearing it a thousand times is enough to shake people.
Cheng Baojiao was always serious, so she said directly: "Why don't you tell them and let them judge for themselves."
Being naughty and disobedient just proves that you are a child with your own ideas, and your own ideas should not be restricted by others. As for breaking things at home, this is a mistake that almost every child has made in their childhood. "
How come there are so many bad things about her
Hearing them say this, Shang Lu immediately lowered his head, turned one hand palm up, and began to count carefully.
Shang Lu did not answer the question directly, but suddenly asked: "Are you about my age?"
I fell in love with this girl just by watching her audition video, so I specially prepared a gift for her when we met for the first time. After that, I wanted to get to know her better and care about her more, and now I have finally got what I wanted.
Thinking of how proudly Wang Rong came into the store in the evening and said to the clerk, "Take out the best and most expensive things, I want to buy a gift for my daughter," Shang Lu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
*
Shang Lu counted the shortcomings one by one, and soon found that one hand seemed not enough.
"Three days older than me." Shang Lu pursed his lips, then raised his eyes to look at them and said, "Then she is my sister."
"Yes." Xue Zishan nodded, and then told her: "She was born in the same year as you, on February 14th, Valentine's Day, so the nickname we gave her was Qingqing."
Details like this are enough to show that she is a caring and warm-hearted child. They are so lucky.
At the same time, Xue Zishan was also moved by Shang Lu's words and liked her more and more.
She stretched out her second hand, but for a moment she didn't know whether she should continue counting.
"Yes." Wang Rong continued, "Don't talk about the child. I broke several bowls at home a few days ago. It's over. I'm over 50 years old and I'm still making the same mistakes you made when you were a child."
Xue Zishan also held Shang Lu's hand, which was stiffly placed in the air. She spoke in a gentler voice, "Is that how you see yourself? But these are just aspects of a person's character, and they are very normal. I think what you said are all advantages.
Duan Anguo and Cheng Baojiao looked at each other happily, and even Cheng Baojiao's usually serious face broke into a smile.
"But maybe we're not that good parents." Wang Rong lowered his head and tried to smile. The crow's feet at the corners of his eyes showed some traces of vicissitudes. He said slowly: "We once had a daughter, but we didn't even have the time to get along with her before she left this world. If she were still alive, she would be about the same age as you. In fact, we don't have much experience in being parents, and we may not be able to give you everything that's good, so we're also very nervous now. But if you're willing, we can try together and work hard together."
What she wanted to say was a qualified daughter, but when the words came to her lips, she finally said that there were some changes.
Shang Lu's hand was gently held by Xue Zishan, and every word of doubt she uttered about herself seemed to be denied by Xue Zishan one by one.
This feeling is so good that it seems unreal.
Duan Anguo suddenly interrupted at this moment: "What are your shortcomings? How come I haven't noticed anything after being with you for so long?"
I usually don’t seem to realize it at all.
Xue Zishan laughed out loud, reached out and touched Shang Lu's face, and asked, "Is this the shortcoming you mentioned? But I think every one of them is cute."
Shang Lu said that their Qingqing was her sister, which meant that she was willing to be their child and willing to be their younger sister.
Shang Lu never changed her mind, and Wang Rong and Xue Zishan did not urge her. Before they parted, she finally couldn't help hugging Xue Zishan, and then whispered, "Mom and Dad, I'm leaving first."
Feeling Xue Zishan's warm embrace, she almost cried at that moment.
But I held back.
Because I feel very happy, I shouldn’t cry at this time, I should laugh.
However, on such a beautiful day, Shang Lu once again met someone he didn't want to see.
When she saw Shang Mu standing downstairs of her house, she chose to put the longevity lock into her shoulder bag.
The previous experience taught Shang Lu that it was useless to ignore it.
So this time she asked directly: "What's the matter? If you want me to go home, don't say boring nonsense."
Shang Mu didn't expect that Shang Lu would actually take the initiative to talk to him. A trace of surprise appeared on his face, but then he lowered his eyelashes and didn't look at Shang Lu, but handed over the cake bag in his hand.
It was Shanglu’s favorite cake shop. Xu Ze went there and queued up two days ago to buy her favorite mango cake.
And now Shang Mu also appeared downstairs of her house carrying a cake from this store.
And it looks like this cake is going to be given to her.
It's really weird.
Shang Lu's first reaction was to take a step back, then look at Shang Mu. Fearing that he was being overly sentimental, he even confirmed, "For me?"
"Yeah." Shang Mu answered, and then said: "I watched your show and bought it when I passed by today."
Shang Lu of course did not take the cake. She had a complicated expression: "Excuse me, how are you mentally lately?"
When Shang Lu's sarcasm reached Shang Mu's ears, it turned into concern for him.
Shang Mu said: "… not very good."
Shang Lu nodded naturally: "I can see that you are not crazy and you won't come to me with a cake. If you want to throw it on my face, just ignore me."
Shang Mu withdrew his hand, but suddenly asked: "Did you receive the express I sent?"
Shang Lu answered honestly: "I received it, but I didn't open it. I just threw it away."
Shang Mu said with a complicated look in his eyes: "That's your rabbit doll."
Shang Lu didn't care: "It doesn't matter, I don't need it anymore."
But Shang Mu suddenly said: "... I'm sorry."
Shang Lu: “… ?”
She began to suspect that the one with mental problems was not Shang Mu but herself.
Shang Lu reached out and pinched his arm quietly to make sure he was not dreaming, then asked, "What have you done to me?"
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you back then. I thought you were the one who told my father about this in private, so... I gave you Rose Manor."
Shang Mu's voice became lower and lower, and in the end he found it difficult to speak again.
He was so angry at giving his sister a punitive gift on her coming-of-age birthday that he was unwilling to believe her explanation. He hurt her completely in this way and ruined her expectations of him as a brother, as well as her last hope for this family.
During sleepless nights, Shang Mu read the diary over and over again many times.
Every time he read it, looking at the sentences "I like my brother" and "I want to talk to my brother", he would happily record all the little things in his diary because of his little response, and he just felt dazed.
It turned out that over the years, his sister had been so eager to get his attention, and at the same time cherished his insignificant or even insignificant kindness.
Among the items that belonged to her, whether it was candy or romance novels, they were all given by him, and she treasured them well.
But what did he do during those years
He was always indifferent and hostile, always ignoring the passionate eyes his sister looked at him with, ignoring the hands she stretched out time and time again, and her attempts to get closer to him.
Shang Mu recalled a lot of past events that he had deliberately forgotten.
For example, when they were riding in the same car on the way to school, the girl would say a lot of nonsense that he thought was boring, but she would shut up obediently at his glance, and then ask him aggrievedly: "Brother, did I disturb you again?"
Naturally, he did not answer, but just lowered his head and looked at the famous book in his hands.
But by chance, he saw Shang Lu borrowing the same book he was reading from the library.
He didn't understand at the time, he just thought she was boring.
Later, when he saw Shang Lu's diary, he realized that it was because his sister thought that he was not interested in the things she said and wanted to have some common topics with him, so she forced herself to read those obscure books.
Did she mention the book later
Maybe, but what he rejected was her as a person rather than the topic she discussed, so no matter what she said, he didn't like to listen and didn't take it to heart.
Shang Lu couldn't understand and asked, "Why did you suddenly mention this?"
Shang Mu said: "... I saw your diary."
"Ah." Shang Lu was a little surprised but he soon understood the reason for Shang Mu's change and smiled at him: "You think too much. It's just a diary. No one has stipulated that only the truth can be written in a diary. Anyway, I am that kind of person, full of lies. I will lie to you and myself at the same time."
"Shang Lu!" Shang Mu called her name again, but this time his eyes were inexplicably filled with blood red: "Don't say that."
"Why?" Shang Lu's smile faded, replaced by confusion: "I thought this was the answer you wanted to hear, so that you could prove that you did nothing wrong, and then go back with peace of mind."
"No, no." Shang Mu naturally denied Shang Lu's words immediately, but he didn't know what else to say.
"What is that?" Shang Lu looked at Shang Mu with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes and asked him back: "Why don't you just tell me what you want to hear? I'll satisfy you as long as it's not too much."
That's what he said, but it sounded perfunctory.
No one has ever stipulated that after you say "I'm sorry", the other party should say it's okay.
But after saying sorry, what should I do
Shang Mu did not answer because he did not know what to say for the moment.
Shang Lu didn't want to waste any more time here.
When Shang Mu saw Shang Lu about to enter the corridor from his side, he instinctively grabbed her wrist, trying to stop her from leaving.
Shang Lu frowned and looked at the hand on his wrist.
This time, before Shang Lu could say anything, Shang Mu let go of his hand first.
Shang Mu's voice was rarely confused. He asked, "What should I do to make up for the harm I have done to you? To make you... forgive me."
Shang Mu's expression was sincere, different from the past. He no longer had the indifference that made her want to get close to him but now feel disgusted. It even made Shang Lu feel a little strange.
She looked into his eyes, trying to find any sign of deception or falsehood, but to no avail.
He seemed to ask this question sincerely, as if he wanted to make it up to her.
How strange.
The world seemed to suddenly be kind to her from some point on.
Everything she once longed for but could not get now seemed to be delivered to her door.
It’s just that some things come too late and are no longer necessary.
However, because she truly felt love and kindness today, Shang Lu's emotions were well soothed. She did not engage in meaningless quarrels with Shang Mu, but chose to communicate with him in a more rational way.
Shang Lu sighed softly, his voice full of helplessness.
She said, "I really want to forgive you, brother."
Just this one sentence made Shang Mu feel as if he was struck by lightning, and his brain stopped thinking for a moment.
He looked at Shang Lu in a daze, looking forward to yet somewhat afraid of what she might say next.
"I hope I can forgive you more than you do. If I forgive you, it means I have completely let it go and the past can really be turned over. But I can't do it. To be honest... I may still hate you a little." Shang Lu paused briefly when he said this.
Because after thinking about it seriously, she unexpectedly discovered that she didn't seem to hate Shang's father or Shang Jia, but she did hate Shang Mu a little.
When the word "hate" came out of Shang Lu's mouth, Shang Mu felt a sour pain radiating from his heart.
Yes, she should hate him.
He looked at Shang Lu in front of him. She had grown up completely and was no longer the timid girl who followed him in school uniform.
He has been wrong for too long, and only now that he is no longer qualified does he start thinking about making amends.
"Do you know how happy I was when you told me you were going to give me a birthday present? I thought you finally accepted me. At that moment, I really regretted the quarrel with you. My mind was full of thoughts about how to apologize to you and how to be a good and obedient sister that you like in the future. During those few hours on the car to City A, I thought about many things, even what kind of clothes I wanted you to wear when you carried me on the red carpet when we get married in the future."
Shang Lu said this, and pulled the corners of his lips helplessly, then asked: "Isn't it ridiculous? Until I saw the Rose Manor, I also thought I was ridiculous."
"No... No." Shang Mu's brain felt a little confused. He opened his mouth to explain, but felt so powerless.
What isn't
Obviously, because these are things he actually did.
Shang Lu curled up her fingers that were hanging at her side, and rubbed her nails on the bag. She no longer looked at Shang Mu's eyes, and her voice became lower and lower: "Although I have always known that I am not loved, if I had the opportunity to choose, I would not want to come to this world. But I am very timid and cowardly. Now that I am here, I still can't bear to leave. I want to live, and I want to live a happier life.
It was not until I saw the gift you gave me and the beautiful manor that day that I realized you wanted me to die. That night was the only time in my life that I thought, why not let my life end here, it would be good for everyone. "
After that, Shang Lu couldn’t really remember much.
Maybe it’s because of the plot requirements. The love story of the male and female protagonists has not yet begun, and she, the vicious female supporting role, will need to appear in the future.
So she did nothing and just continued to live in this world.
Until the constraints of the plot were released, until I woke up now.
She finally stopped obsessed with obtaining that illusory and ridiculous family affection.
She had actually wanted to say these words to Shang Mu for a long time, and now she finally had the chance to say it.
Shang Lu stretched out a hand and placed it on the middle of his sternum, muttering, "Shang Mu, this is so strange. After saying this, I find that I don't seem to hate you that much anymore."
"Since you've said sorry to me, I'll just say it's okay." Shang Lu then looked at Shang Mu again and said seriously, "You don't have to think about making it up to me. As long as you don't disturb my life in the future, I'll be very grateful to you."
After that, she waved goodbye to Shang Mu and walked in. This time, Shang Mu did not stop her.
He watched her leave and couldn't find any reason to follow her.
She said it was okay.
His goal seemed to have been achieved.
However, the feeling of emptiness in my heart became more obvious.
Every word she said was like a knife cutting into his heart, reminding him over and over again of everything he had done.
Breathing even felt painful, but he couldn't even say a word to stop it.
Because he knew very well that Shang Lu's choice was not wrong.
Although she had moved out of the business a long time ago, their last meeting ended in a bad mood.
But until this moment, she seemed to have truly left Shangjia and truly left him.
From then on, it seemed as if he was the only one left in that cold and heartless house.
*
The elevator door opened.
Shang Lu wanted to go in, but he saw Chi Yan who was about to leave with a bag in his hand.
Chi Yan was about to say something, but when he saw the figure at the door, he frowned and asked, "Shang Mu is here again?"
"Yeah." Shang Lu responded, obviously not wanting to mention Shang Mu's name. His eyes fell on the bag in Chi Yan's hand with some doubt, and asked, "Are these desserts?"
Chi Yan was slightly stunned and asked, "You smelled it again?"
Shang Lu nodded and praised, "It smells so good."
"It's just a failure." Chi Yan said, and then said: "I have some freshly made ones, one of which is barely acceptable. Do you want to try some?"
Shang Lu showed a hesitant look on her face and said, "I swore last time that I must always remember that I am a female star, so -
What flavor does your cake taste like
Chi Yan replied: "Mango and Oreo double layer sandwich."
Shang Lu: "Okay, I'll go to your house and wait for you."
It was my favorite flavor, so I decided to give up resisting it in a second.
Tomorrow! Tomorrow she will definitely remember that she is a female star QAQ!
*
Shang Lu came back full, and after eating a piece of cake, she looked at Chi Yan.
Chi Yan also looked at her.
Shang Lu couldn't help but burped.
Chi Yan pursed his lips and tried hard not to laugh.
"Laugh if you want to." Shang Lu said this and stood up, asking, "Have you taken your dog for a walk? If not, I'll take it for you. It's just the right time to help digest your food."
"It's a bit early. They like to go out in the middle of the night." Chi Yan said this, but he also proposed a new solution to Shang Lu: "There is a shopping mall two kilometers away from us, which is the largest video game arcade in the capital. I heard that there are hundreds of claw machines in it. Do you want to go and compare them?"
"Huh?" Shang Lu looked at Chi Yan, crossed his arms and asked, "Master Chi still likes dolls?"
Chi Yan replied nonchalantly: "The doll is not important, what's important is that I want to crush you."
This aroused Shang Lu's desire to win, and she said directly: "Okay, let's go and compete!"
*
Shang Lu, fully armed, followed Chi Yan into the mall and entered the video game arcade on the fifth floor.
Two people first bought one hundred game coins and then divided them equally.
The claw machine charges two coins per time, which is equivalent to twenty-five chances per person.
Shang Lu said confidently: "Let me show you what talent is."
Chi Yan said leisurely: "Let your strength speak for itself."
The two looked at each other, put the coins into the game machine at the same time, and gripped the handle.
Fifteen minutes later.
The battle was extremely tense, with both players evenly matched, chasing each other, and the score was always -
Zero to zero.
Shang Lu: “…”
Chi Yan: “…”
Both of them fell silent at the same time.
Why is it so difficult
If I had known I would not have come / would not have brought her here.
But fate chose to humiliate them severely at this time.
Two primary school students passed by them very happily. Each of them was holding a bunch of dolls in their hands. It seemed that they could hardly hold them all. So they got a small cart to put them in and continued to grab dolls.
#Happiness belongs to elementary school students only, and these two adults have nothing#
Shang Lu and Chi Yan looked at each other, and the two of them had a tacit understanding, so they chose to follow the two elementary school students together.
They kept a distance of several meters and secretly watched the two elementary school students' operations together.
Shang Lu was puzzled: "So why don't we go forward and take a look openly?"
Chi Yan said confidently: "This is called stealing skills."
five minutes later.
Chi Yan asked again: "Do you understand?"
Shang Lu replied: "It's too far away, I can't see it clearly."
Chi Yan: "Then let's go, let's go and learn from the master."
So in the end, the two of them walked forward together.
Chi Yan asked: "Little friends, do you two have any tricks for catching dolls?"
Shang Lu nodded and praised: "You two are really amazing."
The two children generously offered to teach them.
So Chi Yan turned around and bought two full baskets of game coins.
Then he handed one of the baskets to the two elementary school students and said seriously, "This is our tuition. Please, teachers."
Seeing that Chi Yan was very "sincerity", the two pupils demonstrated a game to them one by one and gave them guidance one sentence at a time.
"Stick left, right, left, right, down, press the button twice."
"Be careful to shake the paw and change its angle."
Shang Lu and Chi Yan looked very serious, and every time the two elementary school students said something, they kept nodding to show that they remembered it.
After the two masters finished teaching, one of them said, "You two give it a try and let us see."
Shang Lu picked up two game coins, wanting to laugh but unable to, and said, "Chi Yan, why do I suddenly feel a little nervous?"
Chi Yan answered her: "Because it's like a pop quiz."
Shang Lu felt that what Chi Yan said made sense, so after putting in two game coins, he held the joystick, his mind full of the formula he had just learned.
However, she pressed the button too slowly the second time, and her claws had already grabbed the doll, but it fell down just as she raised it in mid-air.
Chi Yan was still a little short of the target. He had been caught and was almost at the entrance of the cave, but he still could not successfully get him in.
Both failed again.
They looked at each other, their eyes were full of helplessness but also smile.
The two elementary school students' master also comforted them: "Don't be discouraged, you have done a good job. This is the powerful claw set by the merchants here, deliberately preventing you from catching it."
Another followed up, "Yeah, you two learn very quickly, really! Much better than the students in our class!"
After receiving praise from their two masters, Shang Lu and Chi Yan continued to work hard.
After several rounds of attempts, with the two masters giving instructions separately, Shang Lu soon succeeded in catching the first doll.
When the little white rabbit fell out of the hole, Shang Lu couldn't help but cheer, "Chi Yan! Look! I caught it!"
"Very impressive." Chi Yan praised her, and then deliberately shook the two gray rabbits in his hands at her, looking a little arrogant and asking for a beating.
Shang Lu: “???”
When did Chi Yan catch two
Shang Lu immediately continued to insert coins, determined to catch up with Chi Yan's score.
However, the more she wanted to win, the more she failed.
At this moment, a master quietly pulled Shang Lu's clothes and said, "Sister, come here. There is a machine over here that someone has tried to catch more than ten times but failed. It will definitely produce a powerful claw soon."
Shang Lu: “!”
So Shanglu immediately rushed to the game machine, and with one claw he luckily grabbed two dolls at the same time!
Chi Yan's voice suddenly rang out from behind them: "Master is too partial."
The elementary school student was too embarrassed to smile at Shang Lu and ran away instantly.
Shang Lu put the two dolls into the cart that Chi Yan was pushing, and shrugged, saying, "Maybe my personality is more charismatic than yours."
"Yes, yes, yes." Chi Yan agreed very cooperatively, and then asked: "Miss, I have already graduated, you can pick whichever one you want."
“Is it really that great?” Shang Lu questioned, but kept pointing at different claw machines: “This one, this one, and that one, I want them all.”
"Got it." Chi Yan said this, took a few game coins, walked to the claw machine designated by Shang Lu, and bent down.
By the time the basket of game coins was used up, Shang Lu and Chi Yan's carts were filled with all kinds of stuffed toys.
But they had long since stopped counting, and couldn't tell who had won.
Shang Lu looked at the cart of dolls with satisfaction, as well as the two rabbit-ear hats that she asked Chi Yan to pick out, and said, "We can each get one of these, and we can split the rest equally."
"Okay." Chi Yan responded, then went to the front desk to buy a shopping bag and put all the dolls in it.
Chi Yan was carrying two full bags of dolls, while Shang Lu was walking beside him with his phone, adjusting the filter on the photo he had just taken, and proudly posted a message on his Moments.
[The legendary master is among the people! [Picture]]
Lin Yanyan was the first to comment.
[Ahhh, so cute, I want one too! ]
Shang Lu naturally replied to her: Pick any one you like.
The two men first went to Shang Lu's house and placed all the dolls on the sofa.
Shang Lu first picked out the puppy that Lin Yanyan had chosen, then looked at Chi Yan: "It's your turn."
Chi Yan didn't bother to be polite with her and picked up the white rabbit that Shang Lu caught first.
The two of them really took turns choosing one and then divided the dolls up.
Shang Lu wore the bunny ear plush hat and took a selfie holding his favorite white bear. He looked at Chi Yan and said, "I didn't expect you to really like these. I thought you would be so cool and say, 'Who wants such childish things?' and then give them all to me."
“No way.” Chi Yan said this, and took a photo with the rabbit: “I also put in a lot of effort.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” This time it was Shang Lu’s turn to praise Chi Yan: “Young Master Chi is quick to learn, extremely talented, and invincible in the video game arcade.”
"You have good taste." Chi Yan threw the rabbit into his bag, then waved at Shang Lu: "Come here."
Shang Lu didn't quite understand what Chi Yan wanted to do, but she sat over anyway. Then she saw Chi Yan grabbed the rabbit ears on her hat and lifted it up, just like he had grabbed the rabbit just now, and took a photo with her.
Shang Lu immediately sat up straight and looked at him, angrily saying: "Chi! Yan! Are you childish?"
Chi Yan leaned on the sofa and smiled at her lazily: "Don't be angry, Miss, if I let you catch it back, then we'll be even."
Chi Yan did what he said. He took out another rabbit-ear hat from the bag with one hand and put it directly on his head, then raised his cell phone to signal Shang Lu.
Shang Lu felt that what Chi Yan said made sense, so he reached out and grabbed the rabbit ears on his head, and deliberately showed a ferocious expression to the camera.
Soon Shang Lu received two photos sent by Chi Yan.
She clicked save casually, and then suddenly thought: "Chi Yan, we have known each other for such a long time, but this seems to be the first time we have taken a photo together."
“That’s not necessarily true.” This is Chi Yan’s answer.
Shang Lu sat cross-legged on the sofa, thought for a moment, leaned back a little, and looked back at Chi Yan: "I remember now, there are graduation photos, right? But I mean a photo of the two of us together alone, this is the first time."
Chi Yan did not answer the question. His hand rested on the edge of the sofa, and her long hair fell between his index fingers.
He didn't take his hand back, but he was afraid that she would notice.
I wanted to get closer, but I stopped there.
Just like every day and night before.
When he was in high school, during an activity organized by the school, he heard a sigh as soon as he got on the bus, and the eyes of the students around him who were watching the fun were all on her.
And what about her.
And because Jiang Yi felt wronged, her eyes were red, but she didn't even dare to say a word loudly.
He sat beside her, trying to block out those malicious looks and give her a space to shed tears in peace.
Later, the journey was so long that she cried so much that she fell asleep leaning against the window.
That was the first time Chi Yan realized his own selfishness so clearly.
Because he quietly put his arm around Shang Lu's shoulders and let her lean on him, but when she woke up he deliberately showed a reluctant expression.
That summer, the boy's heart was moved.
Everyone around was resting, and he took the first photo of her and him in a panic.
He once wished that time could stay in that summer forever.
Now he was glad that everything did not really stop in that summer.
Shang Lu reached out and pulled his bunny ears again, and couldn't help but touch his plush hat again, and said seriously: "Chi Yan, today was originally a very happy day for me, but then I became a little unhappy. But luckily you showed up and put a perfect end to my day, so in the end I still felt happy again."
She didn't know why she said all this, but she just felt very happy and relieved to see Chi Yan for the last time on this day.
Chi Yan lowered his head slightly, and offered his head and the hat he was wearing to Shang Lu, saying, "Then I hope you will always be happier than today."
