On such a night, Su Yan could not fall asleep. The word "first kiss" seemed so far away to him, yet it really happened.
When he saw the text message from Little Moyu, he clearly felt the anger surging in his heart.
Cheng Kou goes on a blind date, if it’s not Xia Linchen, it could be someone else, so why not him
This thought burned his mind, and he waited for Cheng Kou and then kissed her.
Cheng Kou did not refuse, and even responded to him.
Impulse is the devil, but he is very grateful to this devil.
After signing the contract, he went back to the old house of the Su family. Grandpa was old and it was inevitable that he would have some minor illnesses. Su Zhong and Shen Wenzhou were worried about his health, so they moved back to the old house a month ago. Shen Wenzhou also specifically told him to come back to see his grandfather when he was free.
Su Yan waited for the car in the yard and entered the carved gate. Uncle Ning, the old butler of the Su family, came up to him with a kind smile, "Xiao Wu is back."
Uncle Ning is older than his father Su Zhong. He has been watching them grow up. There is no distinction between masters and servants in their family. The current generation is especially close to Uncle Ning.
Su Yan smiled, changed his shoes and went into the house, "Where's Grandpa? In the study?"
After getting a positive answer from Uncle Ning, Su Yan went to the study to visit Su Yuanshan first. The old man was in high spirits. He asked him a few questions about his recent situation, then said he wanted to take a nap and let him go.
When Su Yan passed by the living room, he saw his mother Shen Wenzhou and his second aunt Su Yue sitting together, not knowing what they were talking about.
Shen Wenzhou saw him and waved him over. Su Yan sat next to her and greeted Su Yue, "Second Aunt, Mom."
As expected, Shen Wenzhou asked about Qin Shan. Su Yan had already thought of the answer and said calmly, "I didn't think this matter through, but we have already dealt with it."
"That's good." Su Yue took over and joked, "You have been a steady child since childhood, but you can also be so impulsive."
Su Yan didn't say anything. Shen Wenzhou sighed and glanced at him. "I thought you had finally figured it out. Forget it. It's better if it's not Qin Shan. Otherwise, I don't know how to face that kid."
Su Yue smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you worried? Xiaowu has always been worry-free. He is so handsome, are you worried that he won't be able to get a wife?"
In fact, in terms of appearance, Su Yan is really the most mediocre one in the Su family's generation.
Even compared to other aspects, he is not as outstanding as his other brothers.
He is the second son of his parents. Several of his uncles and aunts are only sons. Only he and Su Lei are brothers. When he was young, his parents were busy with work and his brother was in school, so he could only keep Qin Shan and Lonely company.
On the way back to City C, he remembered Shen Wenzhou saying to him hesitantly, "Xiao Yan, Mom is not rushing you. If you have a girl you like, just settle down quickly."
Of course he has a girl he likes. There has been such a person for the past ten years.
Cheng Kou thought she had experienced the sweetness and sourness of secret love for ten years, and so had he.
At that year's New Year's Eve party, his performance was next to Cheng Kou's, so he found an excuse to go into the dressing room just to take a look at her.
When Cheng Kou played the flute, he was listening from behind. The song was called "Wang Jiangnan". His grandmother always played it when he was very young. It was his childhood memory.
The melodious sound of the flute seeped into his heart bit by bit.
It’s not difficult to notice this girl. She is in the next class and has a pair of smiling eyes.
She was the Chinese class representative of Class 10. Su Yan sat near the door and every day he could see her passing through the back door of their class with a stack of homework books and then coming back with a dozen test papers.
One day when she didn't show up, his deskmate came back from outside and shouted loudly, "Are you going to play ball in the next PE class? Class 10 is waiting, and they brought their own cheerleading team, and their class beauty is here too."
Someone answered, "Eh? Are you cheering for Xia Linchen again? That boy is so lucky. Not only is his early love object so beautiful, but Old Zhao never cares about them. I'm so envious."
Another echoed, "You don't have Xia Linchen's face, so forget it. It would be better if it was Su Yan."
Su Yan frowned when he heard that. Seeing that Su Yan didn't look very happy, they thought that he didn't like being talked about, so they all dispersed.
The class beauty of Class 10 was Cheng Kou. Su Yan had heard about her from the boys in their class. Boys also gossiped among themselves, and although Su Yan never participated in it, they didn't shy away from him.
He knew that Cheng Kou and Xia Linchen had been childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was extremely close, so everyone thought they were a couple. Cheng Kou was well-behaved and obedient, and although Xia Linchen's grades were average, he was good at sports and didn't cause trouble, so even the teachers turned a blind eye and let them do as they pleased.
They also laughed and said that, although both were class beauties, if Shen Yang was a gorgeous rose, then Cheng Kou could only be called a shy little daisy.
Youthfulness is also a kind of beauty, and daisies also have their own charm. There are many people who like Cheng Kou, but probably because of Xia Linchen, no one can take the initiative to confess.
Between knowing yourself and not overestimating your own abilities, smart people will choose the former.
Originally, Su Yan planned to go to the library to read during that physical education class, but later he couldn't resist the urge to do so, so he returned the book that he hadn't read a single word of, and hurried out of the teaching building.
When Su Yan passed by the basketball court, the girls screamed. He was used to it and didn't even bother to frown.
He is not indifferent by nature. He used to laugh heartily when he was a child, but he gradually grew up to be like this.
A tired male classmate called Su Yan and asked him if he wanted to play. It was just a polite remark, but he didn't expect Su Yan to roll up his sleeves and go on the court. He played the small forward, which he didn't usually play, and deliberately faced off against Xia Linchen, confronting him head-on.
He was not as talented and experienced in basketball as Xia Linchen, but he had a good sense of the ball, quick reactions, and was fast at running. Xia Linchen could not gain any advantage over him and was instead slightly at a disadvantage.
Su Yan played with great concentration, with only the basketball, the basket and his opponent Xia Linchen in his eyes.
Xia Linchen slowed down a step and left an opening. Su Yan raised his hand and shot a three-pointer. He heard Cheng Kou's voice. She was cheering for Xia Linchen. Her cheeks were flushed with rosy glow from shouting so hard.
Only then did he realize that all his wrong behaviors today were caused by jealousy. And Cheng Kou's wholehearted encouragement just added fuel to his already burning anger.
Su Yan, who was even more jealous, was unstoppable. The game ended with a fadeaway jump shot after he dribbled past Xia Linchen.
He defeated Xia Linchen, but he was not happy at all.
This feeling came to him again on the day of the finals, when he once again distinguished Cheng Kou's voice cheering for Xia Linchen from the noise.
He has an indifferent personality but treats people peacefully, but he has that kind of background after all. Pride and unwillingness to admit defeat flow in his blood and are innate.
He took quick steps forward and jumped up to block Xia Linchen's goal that could decide the outcome of the match.
After the game, he went to the bathroom to carefully wash the dirt off his hands, and then rinsed off the foam with clean water.
Xia Linchen walked in, with beads of sweat on his face, shining in the sunlight. He was not as particular as Su Yan, and he turned on the faucet and poured water on his face and neck. He turned off the faucet until he felt cool enough, and then shook the water droplets off his hair.
They both washed their own clothes. Su Yan wiped his arms and prepared to go back to the classroom for class.
"Su Yan." Xia Linchen called him, his eyes showing the unique flamboyance of a young man, "Are you hostile to me?"
"No, you think too much." He stood there with a dull expression, in sharp contrast with Xia Linchen.
"Is that so?" Xia Linchen scratched his hair and said a little embarrassedly, "The last ball was very beautiful. I am very convinced that I lost to you."
"Thank you." Su Yan paused and nodded slightly.
"Xia Linchen!" Cheng Kou half-poked his head out of the door and shouted. When he saw Su Yan was still behind him, his eyes widened and he suddenly became weak. He said quickly, "Come back to class quickly, Lao Zhao is going to get mad."
"I'm coming." Xia Linchen smiled brightly, his tone mixed with joy and helplessness.
Su Yan watched the two of them leave one after another, lowered his eyes, hiding all his thoughts.
This is a jealous, enviable, intimacy that obscures the attention of others.
Su Yan was rarely late for the next class.
The college entrance examination is approaching, and Su Yan has already decided on his first choice. His family lets him make his own decision and respects his choice.
The day after the exam, he was called back to school to help the teacher sort out a reference answer. In the office, he met the monitor of Class 10, Du Lanshan, who was inseparable from Cheng Kou. The other party took the initiative to talk to him, and he responded indifferently, talking about future plans and the like, and also mentioned several class committee members of their class.
Du Lanshan said that she wanted to stay in City C. Su Yan thought about it and asked her, "Where is the girl who is always with you?"
Du Lanshan seemed to be stunned for a moment, and told him, "C University, she wants to apply to C University. Xia Linchen wants to stay here, and Cheng Kou wants to stay with him."
Under the light of the stars and the moon, the 26-year-old Su Yan recalled himself when he was 18 years old. He was more mature than his peers, but still immature. He believed Du Lanshan's lies, gave up his ideals, and spent his college years on a campus without Cheng Kou.
***
Secret love is sour, but sometimes sweet, but the first kiss is different, it is as sweet as honey and addictive.
Perhaps Cheng Kou deliberately avoided her, and she did not see Su Yan for the next few days. After experiencing such intimacy, she did not know how to face him, nor could she find the right position for their relationship.
However, not meeting cannot solve the problem. Cheng Kou is not mentally prepared yet. What if Su Yan nonchalantly says that he was just infatuated for a moment that night? How should she deal with it
Shen Yinran went on a business trip with her senior from the magazine. Xia Linchen had something to do at home and would not stay here tonight, so Cheng Kou was the only one at home.
There was a muffled sound in the kitchen, and the lights suddenly went out. Cheng Kou followed the light of her phone and went over to check. She was an idiot in this area and couldn't find the reason, so she could only lie back on the bed. But she couldn't sleep and was a little scared. Even though the music in her headphones was loud, it couldn't stop her panic.
The cell phone rang suddenly, and Cheng Kou saw the name displayed on the screen was the person she most wanted to see and least wanted to see at the moment.
Actually, she and Su Yan had exchanged mobile phone numbers for a long time, but this seemed to be the first time they communicated in this way.
"Hey, are you asleep?" Su Yan's slightly cold voice reached her ears through the radio waves. Miraculously, she actually felt at ease.
"No." Cheng Kou got out of bed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Su Yan heard the voice coming from her and said, "It's nothing. I wanted to call you, so I called you."
He said this as if he had always been thinking about her.
Cheng Kou shook her head, trying to get rid of this self-conceited thought from her mind. She walked to the balcony, picked up the kettle and watered the flowers and plants on the balcony.
There was a shower earlier, which came and went quickly, and the air was filled with a slightly moist and refreshing feeling. The night sky was a clean dark blue, like a curtain, with a few stars dotting it, forming a beautiful picture.
Cheng Kou took a deep breath, and the cool air filled his lungs, and his mood became relaxed.
"Cheng Kou, are you still there?" Seeing that she didn't say anything for a long time, Su Yan asked softly.
At first she was silent. In the quiet night, only the sound of Su Yan's breathing could be heard. Her heartbeat became faster and faster. She couldn't help but whispered, "Su Yan, I'm afraid of the dark."
Cheng Kou heard Su Yan's chuckle and stopped talking, but the phone was not hung up. Half a minute later, the doorbell rang.
Cheng Kou went to open the door in her slippers and smiled at him.
Su Yan was wearing home clothes, which made him look handsome in another way. He stood there in a gentle manner, raised his eyebrows and asked her, "If you are scared, do you want to come to my house?"
Cheng Kou followed Su Yan into the room. The first two times she didn't have time to take a good look around the place.
Money has little impact on students when they are students, but after entering society, the way some people look at others varies greatly depending on how much money a person has.
Cheng Kou thought, if everyone knew that Su Yan was from the Su family, he probably wouldn't be able to live a quiet high school life. And there wouldn't be the handsome and silent boy that she liked.
That young boy has grown into the Su Yan of today. Although there are some differences, after the two figures gradually overlapped, he still looks the same as she admired.
The decoration of Su Yan's house was not that of a nouveau riche, but rather a modern style with a unique elegance. He took Cheng Kou to the dining table and asked her to sit down, then he turned and went into the kitchen.
"Where is the little cuttlefish?" Cheng Kou looked at the children's room where there was no light or sound, and asked Su Yan loudly.
"The fourth brother has been taken away." Su Yan walked back to the dining room from the kitchen, handed her a cup of warm milk, and sat down opposite her.
Cheng Kou: “…”
Su Yan saw her expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I always feel..." Cheng Kou laughed softly, "It's a bit pitiful for the little cuttlefish to be tossed around by you guys."
"Heh." Su Yan laughed a monosyllabic laugh and explained, "Don't feel sorry for him. He would rather stay here with me. Xiaoqi has Wanwan to play with him, and Laosi and Qin Shan's homes are more interesting than here. If he didn't have to go to kindergarten, he would rather go back to the old house than live here with me."
"Pfft—" Cheng Kou was overjoyed. It was the first time she heard Su Yan speak so many words in one breath, and it was a bit childish, which made her laugh even more happily. It was not until Su Yan frowned that she said, "So you can be so self-deprecating sometimes, but I think Little Squid still likes to be with you."
"Of course I know this." Su Yan paused, his voice filled with helplessness, "Cheng Kou, I'm just an ordinary person."
Su Yan is also a human being. He eats, sleeps, and goes to the toilet just like everyone else. There is no difference between him and others just because he was born better than others or is particularly outstanding.
She understood this principle, but she still smiled with narrowed eyes and joked with him, "I thought you were aloof from the mundane world."
Su Yan: “…”
Su Yan didn't know how to respond to her joke, so he simply kept silent and watched her swallow the milk in small sips. She looked like a little cuttlefish, just like a child.
Cheng Kou finished drinking the milk, and there were still milk stains on the corners of his mouth. Su Yan was used to wiping the mouth of the little squid, so he also took out a tissue. Halfway through, he remembered that the person sitting opposite him was not his nephew. He stopped moving, feeling awkward, Su Yan moved a little, and handed the tissue to Cheng Kou.
Cheng Kou had already taken a shower, and Su Yan took her to the guest room. The bed was clean and the quilt was neatly folded. I don't know what kind of laundry detergent Su Yan used, but the fragrance was particularly pleasant.
Su Yan didn't know what he was thinking, but he suddenly bent down and moved closer to her.
Cheng Kou sat on the edge of the bed and suddenly realized that she and Su Yan were the only ones in the apartment.
The world of two people is too small. She and Su Yan are so close, so close that she can clearly see every detail on that face.
He had dark pupils, deep eyes, and long, curled eyelashes that cast a shadow under his eyes. At this moment, he was looking at her without blinking, his eyes burning.
Spring has passed, and it is the time when two seasons meet. Cheng Kou seems to be in the sultry heat of midsummer. The temperature on his face rises sharply and redness appears.
Does he like her a little bit as much as she likes him
What should she do if he wanted to kiss her again
Cheng Kou nervously clutched the bed sheet with both hands, his mind full of confused thoughts, and he didn't notice that Su Yan had stood up straight, a smile slowly appearing in his eyes.
Su Yan's lips curved slightly, and his thin lips opened and closed, "It seems that you are not afraid now."
Cheng Kou nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful.
Su Yan left a wall lamp on for her, holding the door handle and preparing to leave, and did not forget to reassure her, "I'm next door, call me if you need anything."
Cheng Kou crawled into the quilt, her heart pounding. Before she fell asleep, she thought that she should be able to have a good sleep tonight.
However, when she woke up the next morning with big dark circles under her eyes, she felt that she was so sweet last night.
How could she think that Su Yan being separated from him by a wall was a sign of a good sleep? He... he couldn't be used as a mosquito repellent!
Su Yan had prepared breakfast and was startled when he knocked on the door to call her. Cheng Kou's hair was messy, and her arms were covered with red and swollen lumps, even her fair face was not spared, there was a small red bump.
As if he couldn't bear to look at it, Su Yan turned his head slightly, leaving Cheng Kou with only a perfect jawline.
Su Yan took out the medicine box and found a tube of ointment for her. Cheng Kou dipped some with her fingertips and applied it to the itchy area little by little.
After applying the medicine, Su Yan asked her to come over for breakfast. Breakfast was toast, warm milk, and eggs fried to perfection. Cheng Kou ate it mouthful by mouthful, and the ordinary food seemed to taste sweet even from her chewing.
After finishing his meal, Su Yan sent Cheng Kou to the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he ran into Xia Linchen who had just returned.
Xia Linchen raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two of them with interest.
***
Cheng Kou silently followed Xia Linchen back home. Xia Linchen went to deal with the power outage without even changing his clothes. After a long time, he found out that the refrigerator had tripped.
The electricity finally came back at home, and Xia Linchen looked at her helplessly. Cheng Kou scratched her hair embarrassedly and walked forward to help him deal with the things in the refrigerator.
Keep what is edible and throw away what is rotten. What an obvious truth.
Xia Linchen looked at Cheng Kou's beautiful eyes, sighed, and asked, "What's going on between you and Su Yan?"
Cheng Kou paused for a moment, then replied as if nothing had happened, "What don't you know about me?"
Xia Linchen pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Well, are you afraid of the dark, or have you been secretly in love with Su Yan since high school?"
Cheng Kou glared at him and snorted again. She had not hidden the fact that she liked Su Yan from Xia Linchen, although she had not told him in person.
Xia Linchen knew her so well, he saw it himself. All her little thoughts were exposed in front of him, her childhood sweetheart, so when Xia Linchen asked her about it, she simply ignored her girlish shyness and admitted it generously.
However, Xia Linchen had only one thing to say about his sudden crush on Cheng Kou: "You have evil intentions but no courage to confess."
Cheng Kou grabbed her hair in distress. "I just don't have the guts. I heard from Lanshan that all the girls who confessed to her died heroically. Rather than leaving such a bad impression on him, I might as well just keep paying attention to him silently."
Xia Linchen opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.
Seeing the terrible wound on Cheng Kou's arm, Xia Linchen suggested that she buy a mosquito net to hang in the room. Cheng Kou thought what he said made sense, so she ordered one online.
Lu Hanting called Cheng Kou directly to the airport in City C. She met up with Shen Yinran and followed up with an interview with Ye Qiduan, a new female painter who had just returned from France.
When Shen Yinran saw Cheng Kou, she couldn't help but complain, "Senior Brother Lu is so mean. I just came back from a business trip and he held me here before I even left the airport. I'm so sleepy and I miss my big bed at home."
There were people coming and going at the airport. She felt that a certain figure that passed by was very familiar to her, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Kou laughed at herself for being dizzy and comforted her. They waited for a while, but after the plane landed, they didn't see Ye Qiduan. Shen Yinran was sensitive and realized that she should have gone to the underground parking lot through the VIP channel, so she hurriedly pulled Cheng Kou to run.
Shen Yinran was half a step ahead of her, looking around as she ran. There was a white BMW parked at the corner, and the license plate number looked familiar. The tall beauty next to the car seemed to be the one they were looking for. There was also a good-looking man standing opposite her. Shen Yinran watched Ye Qiduan open her arms and grab the man's neck, and subconsciously reached out to stop Cheng Kou behind her.
In the dimly lit parking lot, Cheng Kou recognized Su Yan at a glance. It turned out that it was not her illusion just now. He was really here, hugging a woman.
Shen Yinran was a little worried about Cheng Kou, but she had to go to the magazine and confirm with Lu Hanting the work completed during the business trip, so she could only let Cheng Kou take a taxi home alone.
Shen Yinran wondered if all people like Su Yan would be entangled with women of Qin Shan and Ye Qiduan's level, while they, who were as ordinary as Cinderella, would never have the chance to enter their hearts.
Su Yan came to the airport to pick up Ye Qiduan, which was planned long ago. He had studied in France for a short time, and met Ye Qiduan by chance. He helped her and made the first unexpected friend in his life.
Ye Qiduan was the elder sister in age, but sometimes Su Yan felt that she was more like a younger sister who needed care than Qin Shan. So when Ye Qiduan gave him a bear hug without saying a word as soon as they met, he also hugged her back indulgently.
She still had that French enthusiasm on her, and Su Yan was used to it. He patted her on the back and let go of her hand.
When Cheng Kou returned home, Xia Linchen was cooking dinner. He was wearing her apron, which was inappropriate in size and pattern, and inevitably looked a little funny. He waved the spatula and asked her, "Hey, Cheng Kou, have you had dinner yet?"
Cheng Kou shook his head, and then heard the doorbell ring. It was the mosquito net he bought in the morning.
Xia Linchen saw it and sighed, "It was delivered quite quickly."
When Cheng Kou was standing at the door signing for the package, the door opposite opened. Little Inkfish poked half of his head out, smiled cutely, and asked her, "Aunt Cheng Kou, Xiao Wu is not at home, can I play with you?"
Su Yan is not at home, of course he is not at home.
Cheng Kou walked into the living room holding the express in one hand and leading Little Squid in the other.
"Hello, little cuttlefish." Xia Linchen handed the little cuttlefish a piece of candy, trying to win over his heart.
"Hello uncle, thank you." The little cuttlefish took it, peeled off the candy wrapper skillfully, and put the candy into his mouth.
Cheng Kou watched the two of them interacting and still found it hard to imagine what Xia Linchen would be like as a father.
After dinner, Cheng Kou said to Xia Linchen, "Come and help me install the mosquito net."
The mosquito net that Cheng Kou bought casually was a yurt style, which required two tubes to be inserted crosswise into the cloth cover at the top of the mosquito net to prop up the net.
Cheng Kou grabbed the folded tent pole and pushed it in little by little. Xia Linchen thought she was too slow, so he snatched it and did it himself. But his movements were not much smoother than Cheng Kou's, so he was criticized again.
The little cuttlefish blinked its cute big eyes and watched the two of them bickering while installing the mosquito net, holding its face with joy.
It seemed like someone rang the doorbell. Xia Linchen couldn't free his hands and shouted, "Little Squid, help open the door."
Xia Linchen's hand slipped, and the mosquito net that was almost finished became tilted again. Cheng Kou glared at him angrily.
Xia Linchen smiled nonchalantly, with a slight light in his eyes. In a playful mood, he grabbed the curtain and threw it at Cheng Kou's head.
Cheng Kou's face was covered with mesh. She reached out for Xia Linchen's arm and pulled it hard in the direction of the curtain.
Xia Linchen lost his balance and slipped, and the two of them fell onto the bed along with the curtain.
Cheng Kou was pinned down by him. He pushed his shoulder with his still movable right hand and muttered, "Get up. It's too heavy."
Xia Linchen paused for a second before he stood up and helped her pull the curtain off her body.
From the living room came the anxious and tender voice of Little Inkfish, "Hey, Xiaowu, wait for me."
Cheng Kou was startled and hurried out of the room, just in time to see Su Yan changing his shoes and about to step out. She chased after him without thinking, jogging all the way to the door in her slippers.
Little Moyu wanted to follow him out too, so Xia Linchen picked him up by the waist and closed the door behind him. Then he whispered in Little Moyu's ear in a soothing tone, "Shh, they have something to say. Let's just wait here quietly, okay?"
The little cuttlefish hugged Xia Linchen's neck and nodded as if he understood.
Ye Qiduan only stayed for a short time, so Su Yan took her to a hotel owned by the Su Group and arranged a room for her. He also had dinner with her, a genuine Chinese meal.
Thinking about Cheng Kou who was bitten badly by mosquitoes last night, Su Yan rejected Ye Qiduan's invitation to reminisce about the past, and did not stay any longer. He drove directly back to Yuren Garden.
When Su Yan returned home, Xiaoya was about to leave and told him that Xiao Moyu was next door. He nodded and asked Xiaoya to go home after get off work, and he would ring the doorbell opposite to pick up Xiao Moyu.
For some reason, the little cuttlefish seems to like Cheng Kou very much.
It turns out that the nephew also takes after his uncle.
Little Moyu opened the door for him, and when asked where Cheng Kou was, he pointed to the room inside.
Then he saw that scene.
Furious, he turned and walked away, thinking to himself, since when did he become so easily angered? It seemed that when facing Cheng Kou, he always lost control so easily.
Only Cheng Kou is different.
She could manipulate his emotions so easily that he became unlike himself.
Cheng Kou chased him out the door, and, ignoring the fact that he had barely caught his breath, he shouted, "Su Yan, stop!"
Su Yan stopped turning the key and turned to look at her cheeks which had turned slightly red from running, and her long hair which had just been messed up in the curtain, making it so frizzy that he wanted to raise his hand to smooth it out.
His eyes seemed to be covered with mist, so she couldn't see his thoughts clearly. Cheng Kou felt flustered and said before he could speak coldly, "I saw you at the airport today."
Hearing this, Su Yan frowned and said in a cold voice with a hint of impatience, "So?"
"I saw you and..."
"That's not important. I saw it just now." Su Yan interrupted her, and then seemed to remember something. He paused and said, "Oh, yes, I also want to bring the little cuttlefish back and stop him from being a light bulb."
Su Yan spoke without thinking, and he regretted it as soon as he said it. He turned his head away and calmed down for a few seconds before continuing, "Sorry, I think we all need to calm down."
"Su Yan..."
He turned around and continued to turn the key. Cheng Kou called his name softly behind him. She felt that once he closed the door this time, he would never open it for her again.
She reached out her hands and grabbed the hem of his clothes to stop him from moving any further.
Cheng Kou stared at his thin and straight back, his protruding shoulder blades making his snow-white shirt bulge slightly. He stood between light and shadow, as if he had walked into another world.
Cheng Kou couldn't see his expression and wanted to give up in a panic. Her hands were stiffly maintained in a posture, and her palms were wet. Su Yan's shirt must have been soaked with sweat, but she had no time to care about so much at the moment.
But she had to say some things that had been pent up for a long time. She should have been brave ten years ago. Fortunately, it was not too late now. If she didn't tell Su Yan about her feelings, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
