If it wasn't for his personal experience, even Qiao Tian himself would think that these words sounded extremely absurd, after all, this is not a strange world.
He was prepared for Chen Canaan to think he was joking, but unexpectedly, the other party didn't ask anything, and had already burst into tears and said nothing, so he couldn't help being slightly stunned.
Apparently he believed it.
Because it was so unexpected, he looked at the tearful Chen Jianan and didn't know what to say—because he knew that it would be an extremely cruel and sad story if the other party believed him even a little bit.
If it were him, he would not be able to accept it. The younger brother who grew up since he was a child has already left this world. The person who has been with him as Xiao Qiao for more than a few years is actually the same person. outsider.
But since he had already spoken, he had to continue talking. His throat slipped slightly, he forced a smile, and said with difficulty: "Look, Xiao Qiao is afraid that the water has never been in the sea, right? But I can swim. Don't always say that I Has it changed a lot? The reason is that I am not the one who grew up with you, Xiao Qiao. Whether you accept this reality or not, I have to tell you."
Chen Jianan looked at him, tears became more and more violent, and after a while he asked in a hoarse voice, "What about Xiao Qiao?"
Qiao shook his head: "Maybe like me, I went to another world and became another person." He was not sure where the original Xiao Qiao went. In the original world, this weak and pitiful young man had already passed away, but with his own arrival, this body that was supposed to perish was occupied by him and reborn. The original Xiao Qiao is also very likely to be different from himself, going to another world to regain his life.
Regardless of whether this is the case or not, at least this is a good wish, which will make Chen Jianan feel better.
As expected, Chen Jianan's expression softened a little when he heard the words, he wiped his eyes casually with the back of his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Did you go to your world?"
Joe: "Maybe."
"What is your world like?"
Qiao Tie chuckled: "Not bad, it must be more suitable for him than your world."
Chen Jianan nodded.
Qiao Tie looked at her silently, and asked, "Brother Yinan, do you believe what I said?"
Chen Jianan lowered his head and said nothing.
Qiao reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Nan..."
Chen Jianan slowly raised his head to look at him, and asked word by word: "Is Xiao Qiao really gone?"
Qiao Shi pursed his lips and nodded with difficulty.
Chen Jianan looked at him, was silent for a moment, and suddenly burst into tears.
Because his movement was too loud, the scattered tourists around couldn't help but look at it, but he didn't realize it.
Qiao Shi silently looked at the crying young man in front of him, and suddenly felt that it was a bit cruel for him to let him, who was originally immersed in the joy of his 20th birthday, know that such a thunderbolt from the blue sky was really cruel to him.
However, once it has been said, it cannot be taken back. He sighed wistfully, patted the other person on the shoulder, turned around to pack their luggage, returned the rented parasol and walked back, the guy was still crying bitterly on the spot.
Qiao Chen had no choice but to bend down and hold his arm: "Brother Nan, the sun has set, let's go back."
Chen Jianan cried and stood up, but his whole body seemed to be exhausted, he couldn't stand at all, and could only rely on Qiao's poor strength to move forward with difficulty.
Qiao Tie dragged the man into the car with all his strength. He sat in the driver's seat himself, fastened the seat belt on the co-pilot, looked at him silently, took a deep breath, started the car, and left this still beautiful coast.
On the way back, Chen Jianan was crying all the time. At first, he was wailing, but then he didn't know if he was tired, and it turned into intermittent sobbing. Qiao Tie was worried about whether he would turn over. I don't know how a big man who is not afraid of pain or suffering can cry so much
But then I thought about it, this crying was because of the original little Qiao—the beautiful younger brother who loved her heart and soul,
He couldn't help but sigh again.
Back downstairs in the apartment, it was already the beginning of the lanterns. Qiao Tie originally wanted to help him back, but he opened the car door and pulled his arm. He found that this guy was already hysterical, and he couldn't help it if he couldn't pull it. Aberdeen called down.
Hao Zai, who ran over in a hurry, was shocked when he saw the person in the car whose eyes were red and swollen from crying: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Did someone beat you?"
Chen Jianan was still sobbing and dazed, turning a deaf ear to him.
Hao Zai asked anxiously again: "Brother Ah Wen, what happened to my brother?"
Qiao Tie: "...was beaten."
Haozai was furious: "Who is it? Even dare to beat my brother? I'm going to tell Brother Feng."
Qiao Tie: "Don't ask, let your brother go upstairs first, let him have a good rest."
"Yeah." Fortunately, he nodded vigorously, pulled Chen Jianan out of the passenger seat and carried it on his back with rough hands and feet, and did not forget to ask Qiao Tie, "Brother Awen, you haven't been beaten, have you?"
Joe: "...No."
Thinking that the other party needed some time to calm down, or that he might not want to face him, an outsider who has occupied the magpie's nest, for the time being, after returning home, Qiao Dian didn't go to the next door to check on Chen Jianan's situation.
In fact, he was right. For the next week or so, Chen Jianan did not appear in front of him. He heard from Hao Zai that he lived in the martial arts hall for his recent affairs.
The story is false, but hiding from him is true.
From the moment Qiao chose to tell the other party the truth, he knew what consequences he might face. But thinking of Chen Jianan, who was so clinging to him before, that he might become estranged with him from now on, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel sad at all.
Because Chen Jianan is his most important person in this different world.
In the evening, Chen Jianan naturally would not come to him to report, but prepared English books and cards for him, which were still on the bedside table.
Thinking of the past month, this guy was so tired that his eyelids were fighting every day, and he was trying to learn English. He wanted to laugh, but also felt sad...and a little bit angry.
This bastard, although he didn't grow up with him as Xiao Qiao, but the experience of the two of them living together day and night for more than a few years, is it just written off like this
If I treat him so well, do I also want to kill and obliterate him
He couldn't imagine it.
Qiao originally hoped that Chen Jianan would figure it out and take the initiative to find him, but after more than a week, this guy hadn't even returned home, so it was obvious that he would figure it out soon.
In the end, I found an excuse and went to the Anan Martial Arts Hall.
He didn't go upstairs directly, but gave two yuan to a newspaper boy on the side of the road, and asked him to go upstairs to the Anan martial arts hall, saying that someone was looking for Liangzi Nan.
Chen Jianan came down very quickly, the newsboy went out with his front feet, and he followed him out, only to see Qiao Tie standing on the side of the road, and Dang even turned around and fled inside as if he had seen a ghost.
"Chen Canaan!" Qiao Tie called out to him loudly.
So Liang Zinan's escaping pace could only be aborted halfway, then he turned around slowly, and walked towards him with his head drooping. Although he walked in front of him, he still didn't look up, just stared at his own toes and remained silent for a while.
I haven't seen you for more than a week. This guy probably didn't eat or sleep well. He seems to have lost a lot of weight, but it may be because he hasn't gone out in the martial arts gym. It's white, so he looks even more haggard. .
Qiao Tie actually felt a little distressed, but he laughed again at his reaction, and he took a deep breath: "Brother Nan, the application materials for the villa have been redone, and you are also the boss. Just resend the batch.”
Chen Jianan still lowered his head: "Oh."
Qiao took a fountain pen and handed it to him, spread out the document in his hand, and pointed to the signature place: "Here."
Holding the pen in his hand, Chen Jianan signed his name with a hand like a chicken paw. After signing, he returned the pen to him and turned to leave.
"Brother Nan..." Qiao Fei stopped him again.
Chen Jianan stopped, but didn't turn around.
Qiao Tie sighed and asked, "Are you blaming me?"
Chen Jianan shook his head and said in a muffled voice, "No."
Qiao Tie laughed helplessly: "I know you can't accept it, but it's not something I can choose." He paused slightly, "To be honest, I don't want to be someone else, if I can , I also really want to go back to my original world.”
Chen Jianan suddenly turned his head and looked at him with wide eyes in astonishment.
Qiao took a deep breath and waved to him: "Okay, keep calm, and come to me when you have figured it out."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and got into the taxi waiting on the side of the road without looking back.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Chen Jianan's alienated reaction made him a little hurt.
And Chen Jianan, who was standing on the side of the road, looked at the taxi leaving in the dust, and suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened in horror, and he wanted to run after him and stop the car, but when he realized it, the red car , has quickly disappeared around the corner.
At half past nine in the evening, Qiao Tie was watching TV with her grandma when there was a knock on the door.
He got up and walked to the entrance, opened the door, and saw a tall figure standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment, as if he suspected that he was wrong.
Chen Jianan looked at him, looked away unnaturally, and whispered, "Xiao Qiao, I'm here to learn English."
Qiao Tie looked at him silently for a moment, finally sighed, turned sideways, and said, "Come in."

The two walked back and forth into the house.
Grandma Qiao didn't see Chen Jianan for more than a week, now she saw someone coming to the house, she smiled and said: "A'nan, I didn't see you today, is the martial arts hall so busy?"
Chen Jianan whispered: "It's a bit busy today."
Grandma Qiao said: "Oh, you've lost weight, didn't you have a good meal, and you still have to go home to eat!"
Chen Jianan faltered and nodded: "Yes."
Grandma Qiao smiled and nodded, got up and said: "Okay, you two children are playing, my old lady went back to her room to rest."
Qiao said, "Good night, grandma."
After watching grandma enter the bedroom, Qiao turned off the TV, glanced at Chen Jianan, and then walked towards his own room.
Chen Jianan silently followed him.
Unlike usual, today he didn't fly onto the bed laughing loudly, but sat obediently on the edge of the bed, watching Qiao Tie pick up the English book and cards, and whispered: " Remember what you learned before, let’s learn three sentences and three words today.”
Joe took a look and nodded.
He sat down opposite him, with almost two people in the middle.
The two were really like a teacher and a student, one taught seriously and the other studied hard, neither of them said anything else.
After half an hour, the class ended.
Qiao Tie put the books and cards back on the bedside table, and then he took the time to look at the young man opposite him. Chen Jianan's haggard black eyes finally met his eyes.
The two just looked at each other, and after a while, Chen Jianan finally said, "Little Qiao..."
"Um?"
Chen Jianan lowered his head again, looked at his own fingers that seemed to have no place to rest, and said in a low voice: "You said earlier that you really wanted to return to your own world."
Joe nodded, "Yeah."
Chen Jianan said: "Then you will leave too?"
Qiao Shi was startled for a while, then smiled lightly, shook his head and said, "Probably not, unless he dies again."
Chen Jianan raised his head suddenly, and covered his mouth tightly with his hand.
Qiao Shi was taken aback by his unexpected action, opened a pair of dark eyes, and looked at him strangely.
Chen Jianan seemed to have realized something suddenly, and quickly withdrew his hands in a panic, and even put his back behind his back, then got up in a hurry and said, "Then I'm going back to sleep."
Qiao Tie nodded, stood up with him, and silently walked the man to the door.
Chen Jianan went out, turned around again, watched his lips flutter for a while, and finally said: "Goodnight."
Qiao Tie sighed: "Good night."
Then he closed the door gently, Chen Jianan looked at the door in front of him that separated him from Qiao, turned around, leaned against the door panel as if to relieve his strength, and slapped himself forcefully.
