Defeated By Love

Chapter 42

Views:

Shu Nian had never heard Xie Ruhe say such a thing.

They met when they were young, separated after getting acquainted, and reunited after growing up. In these years of separation, I don't know what happened to each of them, and how many people of all kinds I met.

Then, under the baptism of these things, what kind of person has become.

This is something that neither of them knows.

Shu Nian subconsciously ignored the time of separation, which is equivalent to ignoring the things that happened after the separation.

All those bad things.

At that time, they were each other's only friends.

Xie Ruhe held a heavy weight in Shu Nian's heart.

This level of importance can make Shu Nian ignore the fact that he hasn't seen him in these years, ignore his sensitivity and vigilance towards strangers, and ignore the delusion of being persecuted that always pops up out of the blue.

Then, as before, get along with Xie Ruhe without any distractions.

It's like going back in time.

But she forgot.

Time is running, and the years are passing by.

For such a long time, they did not meet. Growing up in a world that everyone doesn't know or know, they will meet other people, make new friends, and... fall in love with other people.

He no longer wants anything and everything like he used to.

There will be a desire for other people, and that kind of feeling is not limited to the word "friendship".

And it's not limited to her "only" friend.

Maybe after today, she won't come to him much. Shu Nian thought.

No matter what the meaning of what he said to her is, it doesn't matter if it's just a conversation between friends, or it doesn't matter if he is afraid that the girl he likes will misunderstand.

It's not good for her to be alone in a room with him all the time.

Shu Nian was silent for a while, lowered his eyes, and played with his thin fingers. She curled her lips reluctantly, trying her best to let go of those feelings of loss and sadness: "It's good to fall in love."

After she finished speaking, the room fell silent immediately.

Shu Nian didn't say anything, and Xie Ruhe didn't say anything to respond to her.

Although she felt that there was nothing wrong with her answer, Shu Nian also felt nervous and panic because of this silence. She raised her head and noticed Xie Ruhe's expression.

At this moment, he was staring at her, his handsome eyebrows stretched, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

is laughing.

Shu Nian was taken aback.

What is he laughing at.

what's so funny.

Do you think that girl is so happy

Even if you are really so happy, can't you wait for her to leave and then be happy by yourself

Don't be happy in front of her.

annoying.

She pursed her lips, then lowered her head again, feeling depressed.

"Shu Nian." Xie Ruhe raised the end of his eyes slightly, and there was a hint of spring in his dark eyes, "Do you remember what you told me then?"

Not knowing what he was talking about, Shu Nian didn't bother to ask.

"Can not remember."

It was a very soft voice, like a child's breathing.

Xie Ruhe didn't seem to notice it at all, and he was in a particularly good mood. He withdrew his gaze, with a long and careless breath, hiding a faint smile: "That's it."

After a while, Fang Wencheng also came. He greeted Xie Ruhe, was a little surprised to see Shu Nian, and walked out quickly without disturbing the two of them here.

After finishing the morning training, the two returned to the sixteenth floor.

Xie Ruhe took the clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Because of the conversation just now, Shu Nian is not in the mood to stay any longer. She sat on the sofa, thinking about what excuse she would use to leave. But she hadn't lied much, and she was afraid of being found out.

Shu Nian struggled to the point of a little irritability.

Within a few minutes, Xie Ruhe came out of the bathroom. He probably just washed his body and didn't take a towel to dry off. Water was still dripping from the tips of the hair, sliding down from the cheeks, down to the neck, and gathering at the collarbone.

Xie Ruhe came over and sat next to Shu Nian.

The smell of mint hits his face, clear and light, like his unique taste.

Shu Nian subconsciously moved to the other side.

Xie Ruhe glanced at her and said nothing.

Shu Nian tentatively asked, "What are you going to do later?"

Xie Ruhe said: "I didn't think about it."

"Oh." Shu Nian scratched his head and said softly, "I have something to do."

"What's up?"

"That's, that's it." Shu Nian couldn't think of any reason for a while, she raised her eyes, just in time to meet his clear eyes, and instantly lost the courage to lie, "It's nothing..."

Xie Ruhe asked: "Do you want to go back?"

Shu Nian paused, and said hesitantly, "No."

The few seconds of her hesitation revealed her true thoughts.

"It's okay." Xie Ruhe stood up, with no emotion on his face, but it didn't make people feel that he was unhappy, "Wait for me for a while, I'll see you off."

This time Shu Nian didn't speak again.

Xie Ruhe went back to his room and changed his clothes. He only wore a loose dark red sweater, looking lazy.

Just over a month into the new year, it's still cold outside. The heating is on in the room, so you can't feel it. Shu Nian was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he reminded him, "Put on some extra clothes, it's cold outside."

He shook his head: "I like this color."

Shu Nian wanted to say something, but he didn't continue to persuade.

Xie Ruhe's current physical condition is not enough to drive. Even if he could, he didn't dare to take Shunian on the road rashly. So it was still Fang Wen who drove the car and sent the two of them to the designated place.

Drive all the way to the downstairs of Shu Nian's house.

When Shu Nian was about to get off the car, Xie Ruhe suddenly said, "Shu Nian."

"Um?"

"Do you want to move?"

The sudden words made Shu Nian a little confused: "Moving?"

"Yeah." Xie Ruhe said, "Didn't you say there are a lot of thieves here?"

"I've been arrested."

Xie Ruhe frowned: "Only caught one."

Hearing what he said, Shu Nian also felt a little serious, hesitantly said: "I'll ask Officer He later."

Xie Ruhe looked at her calmly, and only responded in a low voice after a long time.

"Um."

Back home, Shu Nian has nothing to do.

I simply found a video clip on the Internet to dub it, just like doing homework. Her thoughts were wandering, and she couldn't stop thinking of what Xie Ruhe said today.

It made this job really bad.

Shu Nian didn't know how to describe his current mood.

I was a little stuck, out of breath, and felt that it must be something I couldn't get. But he would be overwhelmed, and vaguely hoped that the person he was talking about was himself.

Maybe Xie Ruhe liked him before, according to his reaction at that time. But at that time, Xie Ruhe was young, still in adolescence, and hadn't seen much of the world in that small town.

You might fall in love with her.

If it is now, the possibility is really too low.

Shu Nian didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

But now Xie Ruhe's fame, connections, and looks that are not inferior to the entertainment industry, if any point is taken out, he can find a very dazzling partner.

Not a person like her.

A person who is also mentally ill.

Shu Nian let out a breath, got up, and planned to go to the bathroom to wash his face. She walked in, raised her eyes, and suddenly noticed herself in the mirror, wearing a dark red sweater.

Dark red.

Just now Xie Ruhe said his favorite color.

This incident really made Shu Nian very sad.

She even began to wonder if she had ever been in a relationship, as if she didn't understand anything. After all, when she was with Xu Zeyuan, she had never been so troubled.

That's the kind that extinguished hope in the last moment;

And because of his words, a small detail, the feeling was rekindled.

Although I am a little disgusted with this feeling.

Shu Nian did not go to look for Xie Ruhe again. She wanted to ask him directly who he liked, but she hesitated for a long time before giving up. She was afraid of getting other answers, so that she could no longer have any more hopeful answers.

She seemed to have encountered a major difficulty, and locked herself in the room for several days.

Thinking about it day and night.

It is to ignore other factors of oneself and ask boldly;

Or just treat it as a thing of the past and stop thinking about it.

Such repeated thoughts were interrupted by the notification sound of WeChat.

Shunian came back to his senses and glanced at his phone.

It was Ke Yiqing.

Ke Yiqing: [Shu Nian, are you free?]

Shu read back: [Yes, what do you want?]

Ke Yiqing: [Can you do me a favor? It doesn't matter if you don't want to.]

Ke Yiqing: [Is it because I went to your place before]

After she sent out these words, there was no follow-up for a long time. Shu Nian asked suspiciously: [Huh?]

Ke Yiqing: […]

Ke Yiqing stopped practicing Tai Chi: [Do you have He You's contact information?]

Shu Nian blinked: [Yes.]

Ke Yiqing:[Can you give it to me...]

Ke Yiqing: [I will not spread QAQ everywhere]

Shu Nian felt uncomfortable, and asked: [May I ask Officer He first?]

Ke Yiqing: [Don't, don't, don't.]

Ke Yiqing: [Forget it, I suddenly feel that it's useless to ask for it, so let's leave it at that.]

Shu Nian: [What do you want Police Officer He's contact information for?]

Ke Yiqing: [It's nothing, I'm free.]

Ke Yiqing: [Do you want to know?]

The word "No" typed by Shu Nian has not yet been sent out.

Ke Yiqing: [Okay, I'll tell you what you want.]

"..."

Ke Yiqing: [This He You confessed to me before, but I don't like him very much and forgot to reject him. I'm going to make a phone call to explicitly reject him.]

Other people's business has nothing to do with Shu Nian.

She didn't comment on it, just replied "OK".

Ke Yiqing changed the topic, and said casually: [By the way, that day was really Ah He?]

Ke Yiqing: [I'm going to be on a variety show recently. I heard that the program group has invited Ah He. I don't know if he will come.]

Ke Yiqing: [If it's true, why never show your face?]

Ke Yiqing: [It looks so good-looking, what a waste of money.]

Shu Nian didn't know what to reply, so he sent an emoji.

Ke Yiqing: [I quite like his songs, and his timbre is also very nice.]

Ke Yiqing: [It's a pity that I don't sing anymore.]

Seeing this, Shu Nian paused, and suddenly remembered the MP3 that Xie Ruhe gave her on her birthday. She got up, opened the bedside table beside her, and took out the box.

It has been more than a month since I returned home.

Because the machine has been turned off, the MP3 still has power.

Shunian turned on the phone.

Pressing down all the time, she has a general impression of the song title.

When seeing the song "Wu Nian", Shu Nian paused for a few seconds, not wanting to keep having such inexplicable thoughts, and continued to pull down.

Pull to the bottom.

The last song is called "A Crane".

Shu Nian couldn't remember that Xie Ruhe ever wrote a song named after himself. She put on her headphones and clicked on them to listen. With the other hand, he picked up his mobile phone and checked it online.

Only the melody came from the earphones, Xie Ruhe's voice was not heard.

It's pure music.

Shu Nian checked for a long time, and found that it wasn't that he didn't remember it, but that Xie Ruhe really hadn't published this song.

The melody changes from heavy to light and sounds like it was played on an instrument. Shu Nian didn't know much about this, but she felt that the timbre was quite similar to that of a ukulele.

Shu Nian's heart was pounding, inexplicably faster.

Is it a song written for her

Or did he accidentally put the new song in it...

Shu Nian rolled on the bed with his MP3 in his arms, resisting the urge to scream.

The song is coming to an end, and the ears are instantly quiet.

Shu Nian glanced at the MP3, and suddenly realized that the music was still ten seconds away. The next moment, a familiar male voice suddenly sounded in the earphones, low and hoarse and moist, with a very serious emotion.

"This song is for you."

Because of these words, Shu Nian's depressed mood for several days dissipated.

She couldn't help but curl her lips.

I thought this was the last sentence.

Shu Nian took off one earphone, just when he was about to take off the other earphone and put it away.

Four more words came from the headset.

"Including the title of the song."
