Like a butterfly that had just broken out of its cocoon, it danced beautifully and drew beautiful traces…Life was still the same, leisurely and comfortable. An ordinary life continued to write extraordinary tracks. Xian called Xiaoling early in the morning and said that he wanted to meet her tonight. It seemed like he had something to ask Xiaoling.
She looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost time to meet Xianyue. Xiaoling tidied herself up and left. They came to the stadium where they met. What Xian meant was that he was afraid that Xiaoling would get lost again. This place would make it easier for her to find him. It was a very thoughtful consideration. The few times Xiaoling got lost might have left a deep impression on Xian. When Xiaoling arrived, she could already see Xian waving at her from afar. She looked at her watch and realized that she had arrived early. He did not expect Xian to arrive earlier than him. When did Xian arrive?
"I'm sorry to ask you out at this time.”Xian scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
"Didn't you come to me for something?”Xiaoling did not find it strange that Xian would ask her out.
"Yes, I have something to tell you. However, I only asked you out because I wanted to see you.”
"…You want to see me?"
"Hahaha, it's nothing. Let's go watch a movie first! I bought two movie tickets." Seeing that Xiaoling didn't have any reaction, Xian could only awkwardly change the topic.
"Watch a movie? What movie?"
"You'll know when you see it!" Sitting in the dark cinema, Xian's thoughts were completely absorbed by Xiaoling, who was beside him. Xiaoling was watching the movie very seriously, so she didn't notice anything wrong with Xian. "Xiaoling?" Xian called out softly.
"Hmm? What is it?" Xiaoling replied softly. Because everyone was watching the movie quietly, they couldn't speak too loudly.
"Have you been going to Ye's villa often recently?”
"Yeah, why?"
Xian shouted in surprise," Really?”All of a sudden, everyone present looked at Xian, who stood up excitedly.
" Shh…" Xiaoling pulled Xian to sit down." Lower your voice, why are you so surprised?"”I don't want to be the center of attention.
"How can I not be surprised? Aren't the two of you on bad terms? Why did she go to his house? Did you force me to do something? "Xian has a lot of questions that need to be answered.
"How am I supposed to answer so many questions at once?”Why was Yin acting so strange today?
"Then answer them one by one. I want to know everything about you. I don't want to miss anything.”
"Xian, what's wrong with you today? I feel like his attitude is strange."
"That's not important. You haven't answered me yet.”Xian continued to pester him.
"I went to Ye's villa to take care of Xiao Ying.”
"Xiao Ying? You know Ye's brother, Xiao Ying? How do you know each other? Why are you taking care of Xiao Ying?”Another bunch of questions. Xian suddenly realized that he knew too little about Xiaoling.
"Why do you want to know so much?”He looked very enthusiastic.
Xian felt conflicted and didn't know whether to say it or not. Because he was afraid that Xiaoling would be snatched away by others, how could he say that? Xiaoling had never belonged to him. He didn't know her very well, but he still liked her. Should he confess to her? If he didn't say anything now, what would he do if Xiaoling was snatched away in the future? However, if he told her now and Xiaoling rejected him, they wouldn't be able to be friends anymore. He didn't want such an ending.
"Xian, Xian? What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about? You can't hear me even if I keep calling you."
"No, I'm just hungry. We're not watching the movie. Let's go eat!”
"Oh, okay." After the two of them left the cinema, they wandered aimlessly on the street. Suddenly, Xiaoling stopped and tugged at the corner of Xian's clothes, telling him to wait for her there. Then, she ran across the street.
Five minutes later, Xiaoling handed two bags of fish cakes to Xian. "Aren't you hungry? Eat something to fill your stomach first."
Looking at Xiaoling who was concerned about her, it was hard to imagine how they had met in the past. Also, when they first met, Xiaoling didn't allow anyone to get close to her. Now, they could actually stroll leisurely on the streets together. Everything seemed to have happened yesterday. "Xiaoling, let's go sit in the park over there!”When the two of them arrived at the park, the streetlights beside the bench had already lit up, forming an indescribable scene. Under the dim light, Hyun and Akatsuki sat side by side, enjoying this moment of silence. "Xiaoling, you've been very close to Ye recently. In fact, I'm really a little jealous of Ye.”Under the light, Xian looked very sad. It was the first time she had seen him like this, so Xiaoling didn't say anything and listened to him quietly.
"It's really shocking that people who obviously quarrel when they meet can actually walk together so calmly.”She remembered that the last time after school, Ye said that she had something to do and had to leave first. She thought it was about the company, but she saw Xiaoling get into Ye's car and leave together. Later on, he saw her a few more times…Out of curiosity, he followed her, only to find that Xiaoling often came to Ye's villa. Xian, who had no idea what was going on, could only let his imagination run wild. Now that he had finally mustered up the courage to ask Xiaoling out, he did not know how to start. "Because I don't know why Xiaoling goes to Ye's villa every day, and I can't ask Ye directly. Therefore, she had been thinking about this matter for the past few days and could not work properly.”
"Xian…"
"I'm afraid that I'll bring trouble to Xiaoling, and I don't know how to ask you, so I'm very troubled.”
Xiaoling had always taken Xian's concern to heart. Other than her father, no one else was willing to show her any concern. Only Xian was sincerely willing to care for him and think for himself. If it wasn't for the fact that Hyun was not around at that time, her father would have definitely borrowed money from Hyun for the surgery fee. Then, so many things wouldn't have happened. In fact, Xiaoling had already vaguely sensed Xian's feelings for her, but she had been avoiding and ignoring his feelings. Her mother's departure had left an indelible scar on Xiaoling's heart. She could not express her true feelings, nor could she express all her feelings. She knew that she didn't have the ability to keep the things she loved. Even if she forced them to stay by her side, they would still escape in the end. She couldn't bear the pain of losing a loved one again…so she would rather never have it so that she wouldn't have the pain of losing it.
"Xiaoling, do you like the night?" It was like a calm lake, unlike Xian's personality. Usually, he was smiling happily.
"You and I are from two different worlds. I have never thought about this question.”Do you like it? Xiaoling herself wasn't sure if she liked Ye, or if she was just attracted by his occasional gentleness. As for Xian, she sincerely hoped to have this friend, even if she knew that Xian would leave sooner or later. She also wanted to be good friends with him. Was she being too selfish?
"Hehe, Xiaoling was like this from the beginning. They said that they were from two different worlds and insisted on separating themselves from us. She clearly hoped that someone would come close to her, but she was always stubborn and refused to lower her head.”
"…" Xian saw through everything.
"But I find Xiaoling so cute. Whether it's a smiling Xiaoling, a crying Xiaoling, an angry one, or a confused one, I like them all…so much that I can't believe it.”At the end of his sentence, Xian felt that his voice was trembling." You clearly know nothing about Xiaoling, but you still irresponsibly fell in love with her. You're such a bad person."”
"I'm sorry." This was the only thing Xiaoling could say now.
" Hehe…" Xian, who had been lowering his head, suddenly looked up. His eyes were a little red." You don't have to apologize to me. As expected, I've troubled Xiaoling."”
The wind blew and the leaves rustled. " I was only eight years old when Dad went to prison.”Xiaoling suddenly wanted to let Xian understand her feelings." When I was at the orphanage, no one was willing to be friends with me. No matter how scared I was, I still got through it alone. When it thundered and rained, she would hide in the cupboard and cover her ears, thinking that Daddy would come back to pick her up soon. She would not be so afraid. The brothers and sisters in the orphanage didn't like me. I was bullied by them for three years in a row. In the end, I fled that terrifying place with my body and mind covered in scars.”
"Then, where can an eleven-year-old Xiaoling go?”Xian was eager to know.
"That's right! Where could an eleven-year-old child go? With nowhere to go, I could only wander alone in this world. For two months, no one cared about me. I'm used to seeing the ugliness of reality. All kinds of joys and sorrows are just normal feelings in my eyes. He gradually became indifferent to everything until he was picked up by the lady boss.”
"Lady Boss? The grandmother of Happiness Tavern?"
"Yes, I remember that I was too hungry at that time, so I fainted at the entrance of Happiness Tavern. The lady boss was kind enough to adopt me... Two years later, Dad was released from prison, so I moved back to Dad's side. I spent another two years studying elementary and middle school content, and successfully entered high school. He had thought that he would not have to suffer anymore in the future. He did not expect that his father, who had just been released from prison, would be found to have a brain tumor. The heavens really didn't want to let me go. I suddenly realized that my life had just begun.”
"If I had met Xiaoling back then, I would have protected her and not let anyone bully you.”
"Speaking of which, there really was a little boy who took care of me at that time…If it weren't for him, I would have starved to death during those two months of wandering.”
" Xiaoling…" Xian suddenly grabbed Xiaoling's hand and stared at her, saying very seriously,""I will take care of Xiaoling. As long as Xiaoling gives me a chance, I will protect you for the rest of my life.”
"Idiot!" Xiaoling gently knocked on Xian's head." My heart can't take too many things anymore, be it love or anything else. So I can't repay your kindness. I'm really sorry."”
"Even if Xiaoling says so, I will still protect her. Unless Xiaoling says she hates me, I won't leave you.”
"…" I'm really sorry, Xian. Xiaoling had told Xian everything she had experienced, which meant that she had already regarded him as a friend. Finally, there was someone who could be considered a friend, and Xiaoling was a little happy…
