Han Dong was not stupid. He was sure that Su Ran was asking him for confirmation, to verify whether the rumors about him and Jiang Xinyan were true, and that the person she liked was him.
What a different kind of confession.
This was not the first time he had faced a girl's confession. In the past, he would simply reject her by saying "We are not suitable for each other" or be more subtle by saying "I don't have any thoughts on this for the time being."
However, at this moment, facing her firm and burning gaze, Han Dong was hesitant: "What you hear may not be true, and what you see may not be true. Just like everyone came to congratulate me today, I was also wondering why I didn't know that I had good news."
It was as if fireworks were blooming in his heart. In an instant, the haze dissipated and the sky was clear and blue. He understood and responded. He was not with Dr. Jiang.
Su Ran hid the joy in her heart, lowered her eyes and watched him load the bullets into the magazine one by one, pursed her lips and said: "But... there is no smoke without fire."
Who told you to be so close to Dr. Jiang? You ate together and exercised together in the morning. You didn't know how to avoid suspicion. You deserve to be wronged.
No one has a deeper understanding of these five words than her. She debuted at the age of 17 and shot to fame, which brought her glory but also a lot of trouble. Not only was her every move under the eyes of the media, but she could easily become a ladder for others to climb up. If she said a few more words to the opposite sex, or looked at someone for a little longer, there would immediately be a press release saying that she was having an affair with someone. After learning a few lessons, she became cautious and tried not to have contact with the opposite sex except for work needs. However, in the end, she was still severely criticized.
Han Dong: Uh…
Didn't he just do his best to be a good host and have a meal with Jiang Xinyan? After discovering that Jiang Xinyan had feelings for him and had become different from before, he tried to avoid contact with Jiang Xinyan. As for what happened this morning, it was purely a coincidence.
If there was any mistake he made, it was that he underestimated Jiang Xinyan.
What is this long-lasting love? What is this about waiting for the clouds to clear and the moon to appear? Isn't it just saying that he liked Jiang Xinyan before? And he was the kind that couldn't catch up with her no matter how hard he tried.
If the person involved didn't say it or hint at it, who would dare to spread it? Even he himself didn't know if he really liked Jiang Xinyan. Was that vague liking and curiosity about the opposite sex love
It can only be said that it was intentional and unintentional, making it hard to guard against. In comparison, he appreciated Su Ran's honesty more, but he also could not accept this feeling.
Su Ran is very good. Although she has many shortcomings, she has more shining points. She is not the same as the star he imagined. However, his job is not suitable for being exposed to the public. It is said that drug enforcement police are warriors walking in the dark. Aren't they the same? Unless one of them is willing to give up his job, he doesn't want to take off his military uniform and leave the special brigade. He believes that she also loves her career.
so…
"Click." Han Dong loaded the magazine and said solemnly, "You are right. There is no smoke without fire. I will be careful about my words and actions. I don't have any intention of dating someone at the moment, so I'd better try not to cause misunderstandings to the other party."
The light in Su Ran's eyes faded little by little, and her mood was like riding a roller coaster, rising from the bottom to the sky, and then falling back to the bottom in an instant.
Is he implying to her that just as he has no feelings for Dr. Jiang, he also has no feelings for her
Seeing her gradually dimming gaze, Han Dong felt inexplicably upset: "If you really don't feel like training today, I'll give you a day off. I hope you can adjust your mentality tomorrow and focus on work. The weekend mission is no joke."
Han Dong said this and left.
"Why?" she asked faintly but clearly from behind.
Han Dong paused and said stiffly, "Thinking nonsense is not good for you or your work."
Su Ran stood there in a daze, listening to his footsteps fading away, a bitter, self-deprecating smile spread across her lips for a long time.
The first time I liked someone, I failed the first time I confessed my love to him.
Jiang Xinyan was drinking tea and reading in the dormitory at this time, enjoying her rare leisure time. She didn't have to worry about the hospital calling her to go back for surgery in the next second, and she didn't have to worry about anyone bothering her.
Of course, if the person who came to bother us was Han Dong, that would be a different matter.
However, Han Dong would not come. It was obvious that Han Dong was avoiding her now. It didn't matter. Now in the military camp, even Han Dong's parents thought they were a couple. This cut off the possibility of further development between Han Dong and Su Ran, unless Su Ran and Han Dong gave up their reputation. One of them was labeled as a cheating man, and the other was labeled as a mistress who destroyed other people's feelings. Neither the military camp nor the entertainment industry would tolerate them.
This is called striking first to gain the upper hand.
Past experiences have taught her that you can’t get what you want by just waiting, you have to work hard to get it. She will be 30 next year and she doesn’t want to wait any longer. Once she sets her sights on a goal, she will do everything she can to achieve it.
"Knock, knock, knock..." Someone is knocking on the door.
Jiang Xinyan frowned. Who would come to see her at this time
"Who?" Jiang Xinyan's tone was cold.
"It's me." A deep and mellow male voice came from outside the door.
Jiang Xinyan's breathing stagnated and her heartbeat quickened. It turned out to be Han Dong.
"Wait a moment." Jiang Xinyan quickly put down the teacup, tidied her hair in front of the mirror, and then went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Jiang Xinyan was stunned. Why did Han Dong bring Yang Fan with him
"Han Dong, why are you here?" Jiang Xinyan smiled gently: "Come in and sit down."
"No, I have something to talk to you about. Let's talk here." Han Dong said.
Yang Fan looked away awkwardly, wondering what the captain was up to? He thought the captain had something important to tell him, but he was here to see Dr. Jiang. Did the captain need someone to give him courage to fall in love
"So serious? What's the matter?" Jiang Xinyan smiled unnaturally, feeling uneasy.
"I don't know if you have heard, but the news of our relationship is being talked about everywhere in the military camp today." Han Dong said.
"Is that true? I haven't heard of it!" Jiang Xinyan pretended to be surprised.
Han Dong stared at her without blinking, trying to find flaws on her face. However, she concealed it very well, but this did not affect his judgment: "It's best if you haven't heard of it. I came here specially to explain. I will find out who is making up stories and making fun of other people's reputations. It's disgusting. I hope this matter will not cause you trouble and will not affect our friendship as alumni. I have finished what I want to say. Goodbye."
Han Dong left as soon as he said he would.
He still gave Jiang Xinyan some face, hoping that she would stop. If she did it again, he would not be so easy to talk to. If she wanted to kidnap him with public opinion, there was no door or window.
Yang Fan was dumbfounded. What was going on? Was the captain here to pick up girls? It felt like he was here to settle a score.
Yang Fan smiled awkwardly at the stunned Dr. Jiang and hurried to chase the captain.
