There were slight footsteps behind her, and then she heard Lan Xi'er's voice: "Rourou, did you just come back?"
Su Rourou's back stiffened, and she tried her best to squeeze a smile on her stiff face, then slowly turned to face Lan Xi'er: "Yes... yes, where have you all gone? Where is Luo Yichen, he left?"
The expression on Lan Xi'er's face paused, her big eyes were full of soreness: "En."
Seeing her friend's hurt expression, Su Rourou couldn't bear it. However, she couldn't comfort Lan Xi'er, because she had to pretend that she didn't know anything.
If Lan Xi'er knew that she had encountered the scene just now, she would probably be even more hurt!
"Are you... are you okay?" She asked tentatively.
"It's okay, I just feel a little tired and want to go home." Lan Xi'er took a deep breath and bent down to clean up the things on the table.
"That's just right, I want to go home too." Su Rourou also tidied up in a hurry.
On the way home, both of them were preoccupied, and neither of them spoke.
They walked all the way in silence like this, until the intersection where they usually parted ways, Su Rourou just wanted to say goodbye to Lan Xier, but she stopped her.
"Rou Rou, wait... I have something to tell you." Lan Xi'er gritted her teeth as if she had made up her mind and continued, "I confessed my love to Luo Yichen."
Su Rourou lowered her eyes to hide her guilty conscience: "Oh, then what?"
"He... rejected me." Lan Xi'er paused for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to speak out the fact that she couldn't bear it, and there were tears in her big eyes again.
Su Rourou didn't know what to say, because she already knew the truth, and knew that no matter what she said would irritate Lan Xi'er, she could only let out a soft "oh".
Lan Xi'er suddenly stepped forward and held her hand very hard, her voice trembling, begging a bit: "Rou Rou, can you promise me one thing?"
Su Rourou's body stiffened immediately: "What is it?"
Her eyelashes drooped: Could it be that she asked herself not to be with Luo Yichen? This... She has no way to agree...
Lan Xi'er then tremblingly said: "If I have done something that I'm sorry to you, can you forgive me?"
It turned out that it wasn't what she thought... But Su Rourou's heart still skipped a beat.
She never thought that her best friend would do something to be sorry for her.
Lan Xi'er's tears were already dripping down her face: "Rourou, do you know? In fact, I've always been jealous of you... I've liked Luo Yichen since a long time ago. But, I know he likes you." You are the one who loves you. Every time I see him treat you well, but you don’t take it seriously, chasing Ke Shaoze’s figure, I feel very sad. How I wish that the person he likes is me! Anyway, then You didn't like him then, did you?"
Su Rourou looked at her face covered in tears, and bit her lower lip tightly. She understood the feeling Lan Xi'er was talking about.
When she liked Ke Shaoze in the past, why didn't she stand silently behind him, watching him treat An Yirou so attentively. At that time, her heart was very painful. She really hates An Yirou, she obviously doesn't like Ke Shaoze, why does Ke Shaoze still like her foolishly? How much she hopes that the person Ke Shaoze likes is herself.
However, Lan Xi'er should be more sad than her. After all, she has a normal relationship with An Yirou, if you want to hate her, you can hate her. But Lan Xier...
Lan Xi'er went on to say: "Later, I saw that you started to like him, but... I deliberately pretended not to know, and forced you to ask him out for me. I know, it was very selfish and excessive for me to do this... Rou Rou, can you forgive me? I was really... really wrong... Will we still be good friends in the future?"
Her voice poured into Su Rourou's ears along the wind, and was blown intermittently by the wind, with a little humble begging.
After hearing her last words, Su Rourou's heart twitched in pain.
Her mind was in such a mess that she couldn't think at all. Can't even your best friend be completely trusted? It turned out that she had known for a long time that she liked Luo Yichen...
"You... let me think about it, I'm in a mess right now..." Like an unconscious puppet, she turned and left in a daze.
Lan Xi'er stood there blankly, looking at Su Rourou's figure on the horizon that was fading away, feeling infinite sadness in her heart...
Is she going to lose her best friend
Thinking of the long and beautiful time we spent together in the past, she squatted on the ground covering her face, and suddenly burst into tears.
