The story told by Father Cheng was not long, and it took only ten minutes from the beginning to the end.
Cheng Kou was surprised at first, but then fell silent. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
Father Cheng said: "This is how it is. You can judge for yourself what he thinks of you."
"Dad..." Cheng Kou was moved. He could talk to her openly today, which must have been with Song Qingwu's tacit consent. Maybe they still couldn't completely trust Su Yan, but they couldn't get over their insistence.
Her parents actually thought so much about her without her knowing.
It turned out that things were not as simple as she thought. She had thought that it was just an accidental glance, but it turned out that he wanted to get close to her.
She and Su Yan actually had a long history.
And the sister she wanted to help was Qin Su mentioned by Su Yan.
It was because of that sentence that brought her this marriage.
That's why he said that he liked her earlier than she thought.
Unbeknownst to her, he had waited for her for too long.
Cheng Kou suddenly stood up, walked forward and hugged his father. All his gratitude was concentrated in this action and there was no need to express it in words.
She ran out of the room. Song Qingwu, who was sitting on the sofa pretending to watch TV, heard the noise and turned her head away.
Cheng Kou stopped and said loudly in her direction: "Mom, I think it through very clearly. There is no time more certain than now. Su Yan is the right person."
Song Qingwu moved but did not respond.
Cheng Kou turned around, ran out of the house, walked to the side of the road, and waved to stop a taxi.
My heart was filled with the desire to see him.
The driver asked: "Where are you going, little girl?"
Cheng Kou glanced at the time. Su Yan should be on his way home from get off work. She put away her phone and replied, "Go to Yuren Garden."
She was very nervous and had a lot of ups and downs along the way. She had many questions to ask him, to find out the whole story of her secret love for him for ten years, and most importantly, to get an answer from him.
Su Yan, how long have you been looking at me
The two of them are really bad examples, procrastinating and unwilling to tell each other their feelings.
Only now did she understand that there was nothing wrong in expressing love directly.
This hour seemed very long. Only when she saw the gate of Yuren Garden approaching did her heart settle down.
Cheng Kou got out of the car and walked around to the outside of the cab to pay, only to find that he had forgotten to bring his wallet with him.
"… "
The journey from the east to the west of the city was not short, and according to the taxi fare in City C, it would cost about 180 yuan. Cheng Kou searched his pockets and added up everything, which turned out to be just over 30 yuan.
Cheng Kou smiled awkwardly at the driver, holding his phone, hesitating about who to call for help.
The driver wasn't afraid that she would evade the fare, and cheerfully suggested: "Girl, are you here to look for your boyfriend? Why don't you give him a call?"
Cheng Kou was wondering how he knew who she was going to meet, but the driver seemed to be able to guess her thoughts and said with a smile: "It's written on your face. I want to talk to my boyfriend."
Cheng Kou raised one corner of his mouth, thinking that this master must have watched too many TV dramas.
But his reminder was correct. Cheng Kou found the most recent call and prepared to ask Su Yan to help pay for the fare.
At this time, a pleasant voice came: "Cheng Kou, what are you doing here?"
Cheng Kou turned around and saw a beautiful woman as gorgeous as a peach blossom sticking half of her head out of a bright yellow sports car and looking in her direction.
"I forgot my wallet."
Qin Shan chuckled, got out of the car, slammed the door, and walked towards her.
"Hmm... Take a cab?"
She wore sunglasses and a bohemian-style long skirt. Her long curly hair fell over her shoulders, making her look tall and gorgeous.
She helped Cheng Kou pay the fare. The driver seemed to recognize her as the famous female star and stammered, unable to speak.
Qin Shan smiled at her, made a gesture to keep quiet, signed his name on the notebook he handed over, then took Cheng Kou's arm and got into his car.
Unlike what Cheng Kou had imagined, Qin Shan came here specifically to see her.
"In the afternoon, I heard Su Yan say that he had some conflicts with you, so I stuffed two movie tickets into his pocket." Qin Shan drove the car slowly into Yuren Garden and talked to Cheng Kou distractedly.
"In the evening, Rong Yan called me for help, saying that Su Yan was in a bad mood and abused him to vent his anger." Qin Shan looked at Cheng Kou, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Cheng Kou, tell me, how come our family has a scumbag like him who can't even handle a girl?"
Qin Shan parked the car in the parking space and took the elevator upstairs with Cheng Kou. After reaching the seventh floor, he stood aside and watched Cheng Kou take the key to open the door.
"I was the one keeping your key before." Qin Shan pouted and made a joke, "Because of you, my status in Su Yan's heart has plummeted."
Cheng Kou smiled and found a pair of slippers for her to wear from the shoe cabinet.
It was not difficult to guess why Qin Shan wanted to see her, and she just happened to have something to ask her.
Cheng Kou asked: "Where shall we talk?"
Qin Shan looked around. Perhaps because of the new hostess, the house was very different from the last time she came.
Cheng Kou looked at her and tilted her head to think for a few seconds, then pointed in the direction of the balcony with her slender jade finger.
When Cheng Kou opened the door with two glasses of juice, Qin Shan was already sitting on a rattan chair, waiting for her calmly.
Cheng Kou sat opposite her and asked first, "Is Qin Su your sister?"
Qin Shan nodded. This was not difficult to guess. The surname was the best evidence.
Qin Shan looked at Cheng Kou again, shook his head with amusement, and said, "Su Yan mentioned to me that when my sister was most desperate, a girl said she wanted to save her. Although your liver donation is not in compliance with the regulations, Cheng Kou, I have always been very grateful to you."
"After meeting you, I can understand why Su Yan has been obsessed with you for ten years."
"How did Qin Su... leave?"
"Acute liver failure." Qin Shan sighed, "It was too late when we found out."
How unfortunate Qin Su's death is, only those who witnessed her last journey will understand. She was beautiful, gentle, and talented, and her excellence was something Qin Shan could never hope to achieve in his lifetime. God was jealous of beauty, so she left early, which was also a thorn in Su Yan's heart.
"Tell me about her. After all, she is my cousin too."
"I am one year younger than Su Yan, and Su Yan is more than one year younger than Qin Su, so we grew up together. Qin Su and I are not born from the same mother, and she has no blood relationship with the Su family, so I am Su Yan's sister, but she can be his childhood sweetheart."
"Su Yan was always with Qin Su, and I was just the little tail behind them. It was boring to listen to them talking about schoolwork, but those days were carefree and full of laughter."
"Later, I accidentally discovered that Qin Su actually liked Su Yan, so I encouraged her to confess her feelings. She listened to my advice and wrote a letter to Su Yan, but before she could hand it over, she suddenly fainted during the physical education class that day."
"After she was diagnosed with the disease, none of us hid it from her. After Qin Su found out, she didn't cry or make a fuss. She just quietly told me that the confession she was going to make before should be treated as if it had never happened and not to mention it to Su Yan."
Qin Shan talked a lot in a disjointed manner. As she was lost in memories, she would occasionally smile with nostalgia and would become emotionally unstable and want to cry.
After hearing this, Cheng Kou said to Qin Shan, "Actually, I am a little jealous."
Qin Shan was drinking juice to moisten his throat. Hearing this, he was surprised and explained, "Su Yan never liked my sister."
"No, I know him. If he wasn't sick, Su Yan would be tempted sooner or later." Cheng Kou shook her head, a gentle smile on her lips, "He just hasn't had time to like Qin Su yet."
Qin Shan was somewhat moved: "Cheng Kou..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Cheng Kouyi's eyes were slightly warm, "I just thought that if Qin Su was still here, they would be together sooner or later, and Su Yan wouldn't transfer to another school, so I wouldn't have the chance to meet him."
As for Qin Su, fate was cruel to her. She died before she could wait for the boy she liked.
A 15-year-old boy doesn't know what love is yet. If one day he discovers the existence of such feelings, the person who is equal to it must be her.
Cheng Kou thought that Su Yan must understand all this, which is why he felt so regretful and couldn't let it go.
But it is also a fact that he did not fall in love with Qin Su. Perhaps it was fate that she was the one who appeared at the right time.
As it got darker, Qin Shan left under the cover of night, leaving Cheng Kou alone to wait for Su Yan's return.
She sat on the sofa hugging her knees, digesting the shock brought by Qin Shan. She was just a little bit away from being the one sitting here. This realization scared her. But at the same time, she was also glad that fate was tolerant of her and allowed her to meet Su Yan in good health.
Su Yan opened the door, and as he expected, the room was pitch black. He turned around and closed the door, bent down to change his shoes, then stood up and tried to touch the switch.
After a burst of hurried footsteps, a soft body was in my arms and my lips were kissed head-on.
The familiar scent filled his nostrils and lips. He pushed her away slightly, turned around with her, and continued the kiss against the wall.
Kissing is a form of communication between lovers, and each other can sense how much emotion is invested.
Cheng Kou felt as if they were going to kiss until the end of time.
Those questions I wanted to ask are no longer important.
He was sending her a signal.
—He is in love with her.
