If Liang Zihuan hadn't wanted to pursue her, he wouldn't have spoken to Lu Jialan. As a result, before Liang Zihuan started his pursuit, Xia Rou found out about his intentions.
Xia Rou didn't know if this was fate, but she didn't want to touch him again. He didn't want Cao Yang to know about it, so he could pay attention to Liang Zihuan.
She likes to use Lu Jialan to convey her rejection. But obviously, Liang Zihuan didn't understand what she meant.
After class on Friday, she was going back to the dormitory to pack her things. The drama club had no activities this weekend, so she could go home that day.
Downstairs in the dormitory, Liang Zihuan and Lu Jialan were seen talking. When Liang Zihuan raised his eyes, he also saw her. He patted Lu Jialan on the shoulder, and Lu Jialan looked back, then turned her head reluctantly and went upstairs.
And Liang Zihuan walked towards Xia Rou.
"Xia Rou." He called her with a smile.
All the roommates had gone to the cafeteria, and she had to go home for dinner because it was the weekend, so she went back to the dormitory alone. Hearing him call, he could only stop and look at him.
"Xia Rou, do you remember me? I'm Liang Zihuan, Hu Chen's cousin." In order to prevent Xia Rou from saying "don't know" him again, he emphasized his own name first.
"What's wrong?" Xia Rou asked.
Liang Zihuan actually didn't understand why this Xia Rou was so indifferent to him. He remembered that when he saw her before, she was always talking and laughing at Yanyan with others. Could it be because his family background is not good enough
But no other young lady he knew was as cold as she was to him.
"That... Lu Jialan is my cousin, the girl who had a little misunderstanding with you last week." He smiled, "I mentioned you to her before, but she misunderstood and made an oolong, which made the two of you a little unhappy. I've already told her, I hope you don't care about it."
Xia Rou nodded: "OK."
Liang Zihuan choked. But he reacted quickly, and immediately smiled: "That's good, then I can rest assured."
"Then...Xia Rou, do you have time tomorrow? Let's have a meal together. I'll keep you company." He said again.
"No need, it's just a small misunderstanding." Xia Rou said, "If it's okay, I'll go first."
Xia Rou would refuse, in Liang Zihuan's expectation. He even had prepared words of response. But at this time, for some reason, he didn't speak. He always felt that the atmosphere between him and this girl was always weird.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xia Rou nodded, turned and went upstairs. Leaving Liang Zihuan in place, staring at her back.
The roommates all went to the cafeteria, and she went back to the room alone and sat down at the desk. Through the door, people could be heard coming and going in the corridor, talking in low voices. The room was eerily quiet.
Xia Rou was stunned for a while, then slowly covered her face with her hands...
Liang Zihuan... She remembers clearly that it was the person who accidentally killed her...
But it was also the man she wanted to marry in her last life...
At the beginning of her rebirth, whenever she thought of him, she was filled with anger. Angry at his betrayal of her, and his use of her. I was even more angry that he looked at her with the eyes of "she is sick".
Not to mention, she died accidentally because of him.
But slowly, this kind of anger and hatred gradually faded with the passage of time.
When she gradually understood that other people's attitudes towards her were more of a reflection of her attitude towards others, she couldn't help but think back a lot.
After she moved out of Cao's house, Cao Yang could no longer see her every day as before, and could take care of her at any time. Later, there was a feeling of drifting away between them.
Until she got engaged to Liang Zihuan, Cao Yang suddenly regained their old intimacy with her.
At that time, Xia Rou didn't think about it deeply, but in this life, Xia Rou has figured it out. The eldest brother is... deliberately making a gesture for others to see. Let others know that Xia Rou...is still close to the Cao family and is still protected by him. In this way, others cannot belittle her.
But even so, after all, he couldn't be by her side all the time like before.
In the last two years, he has been really by her side, picking her up and seeing her off, celebrating her birthday, preparing surprises for her, greeting her with care, and taking good care of her when she was sick... In fact, it was Liang Zihuan.
He is not only handsome, but also considerate. Words are always touching.
Although Xia Rou chose him because of his family background, if she said she had no feelings for him, that would not be the case. She was, after all, just a young girl back then. What's more, this is a man who has a marriage contract with her and will marry sooner or later.
When she said she didn't like Liang Zihuan later, she didn't believe it herself.
But she also knew that there was a mutual interest relationship between her and him. She wanted to be Mrs. Liang, and he wanted to rely on the Cao family.
It would be unfair to say that he is using her unilaterally.
In the end, what she couldn't let go of all the time was his betrayal... She also gradually let go.
She occasionally recalled the events of the last day. Apart from recalling Cao Yang's angry look, she also remembered hearing him say to other women through the half-closed door: "She is sick!"
There was deep resentment in those words.
She got engaged to him when she was twenty-three, and agreed to marry when she was twenty-five. At that time, the wedding day was approaching.
But until then, she had no substantive relationship with Liang Zihuan.
Because she has always resisted. He insisted on leaving that matter until after marriage.
Cao An accidentally found out about this, and after being stunned, he laughed at her. After ridiculing, he persuaded her seriously again.
"You let a young man guard you for two years? How is that possible." He said, "Tell you, if you don't listen, don't cry when you find out he cheated on you."
Xia Rou is not willing to listen.
Although she knew in her heart that what Cao An said might be right. Knowing that she was holding back Liang Zihuan so much, Liang Zihuan also felt uncomfortable.
But she has always been lucky, she thinks he dare not.
After all, with Cao Yang, with Cao Yang around, Liang Zihuan dare not bully her like this, she thought.
It turned out that she was too naive.
She was standing outside the door at that time, just as she bowed her head in shame in front of Cao Yang, she was humiliated by her fiancé in front of other women.
She was overwhelmed by anger!
Then came the surprise...
In this life, Xia Rou imagined that if... if she listened to Cao An's persuasion, she would not be so "sick" and could have the right things with Liang Zihuan at the right time like ordinary couples, would it be...the end of her life? Will it be different
However, she had too many "ifs" about her previous life. No matter which "if" can be realized, her life will probably be different.
But her life was dead after all.
When she first met Liang Zihuan in this life, she still had some thoughts of anger and revenge in her heart. But gradually, as she reflected on her previous life and made these "what if" assumptions, her mood gradually became peaceful.
The cause and effect of the past life, it is already difficult to figure out who is right and who is wrong, or it is meaningless to try to figure out who is more wrong.
She thought, she lived a new life, definitely not to live in anger and hatred.
So she let it all go.
What's more, she knew that in another life, if she died, Cao Yang would avenge her.
Then in this life, all those grievances and entanglements that didn't happen, just don't let them happen again.
Liang Zihuan... She no longer hated him, but she no longer wanted to have any contact with him. In this life, the two of them should just be passers-by.
She stayed in the dormitory for a while until the roommates came back after eating. They also wondered: "Hey, you haven't come home yet?"
"It's time to pack things up," she said. Then I put on my bag and said goodbye to everyone.
Walking in the corridor was slower than walking, but when he went downstairs, he saw Liang Zihuan was still there.
Xia Rou paused, ignored him, and wanted to walk over quickly.
But Liang Zihuan called out "Xia Rou". She ignored it and walked away on her own. But the young man who caught up grabbed his arm: "Xiarou!"
Xia Rou had to turn around and face him. With a light struggle, his arm escaped from his grip. As soon as she struggled, Liang Zihuan let go, not daring to be tough.
"Xia Rou, we have met a few times before." He said, "I thought about it, was it when... When I didn't pay attention, what made you unhappy?"
He didn't leave and stayed downstairs, thinking about this question.
He has a smart mind and a keen intuition, and he always feels that there is something wrong with Xia Rou's attitude towards him. After much deliberation, I can only guess if I accidentally offended her when
At the end of October, the sky is not only cold, but also dark early.
At this time, the sky was already dim, and the light that slanted on the buildings was dyed golden.
Since Xia Rou was reborn, it was the first time that she looked at Liang Zihuan so closely and carefully...
He is really a handsome, smart boy. Xia Rou thought, if he hadn't come from a good background and had the ambition to climb to the top, maybe... he wouldn't have taken a fancy to her, would he
She set up a bridge between him and the Cao family, and Lu Jialan felt that she had wronged him by being engaged to her.
Somehow, in the bleakness of late autumn dusk, she remembered his little gentleness. There was also a shallow and gentle kiss between them, and they also held hands and interlocked their fingers.
She thought of how he cared for her when she lived alone and was sick. Stay up late, red eyes.
She also remembered that he once hugged her, breathing disorderly, begging for joy...
Then, she refused. every time.
When she thought of this, she realized that there was already resentment in his eyes at that time... But she didn't notice it at all.
She thought that with Cao Yang around, she wouldn't have to be afraid of anything.
Who is right? Who is wrong
Who is more wrong
It's all... meaningless...
She and he were never the right person for each other.
Liang Zihuan looked into Xia Rou's eyes and was also a little startled.
There are too many and complicated emotions in these eyes, some... beyond the girl's age.
At this moment, he heard Xia Rou sigh softly. She asked, "Liang Zihuan, do you want to chase me?"
"But my surname is Xia, not Cao."
"I can't help you what you want."
Liang Zihuan looked at Xia Rou in surprise.
Obviously the same age as Lu Jialan, Jiajia is still having a temper with a little girl, but Xia Rou has already seen the essence of the matter thoroughly.
There was a gleam of light in his eyes.
"You must have misunderstood me," he said.
However, Xia Rou lowered her head slightly: "Stop talking...it's boring." He blocked a hundred sweet and bewitching words from him.
"Xia Rou. There must be some misunderstanding..." Liang Zihuan was not easily discouraged, he was eager to explain.
But at this moment, the two of them heard a deep man's voice shouting at the same time: "Xiaorou!"
Turning his head following the sound, the man's face was blurred in the copper-golden light of the setting sun.
But when he stood there, he was imposing.
Liang Zihuan heard "Brother!" in his ear, the voice was like a broken silver bottle, and joy penetrated the previously tense air.
The girl beside him ran towards the tall man with brisk steps and hugged his arm.
He saw the man bowed his head and whispered something to her, she turned her head to look at him, remained silent for a while, then shook her head, pulled the man's arm and walked out...
He saw the man throw him a cold, threatening look before turning around.
He was about to go to say hello, but he stopped because of this glance.
Not a good time, he thought.
The reason he approached Xia Rou was to get close to the Cao family, not to offend Cao Yang.
Still, next time...
