It was already past eight o'clock after dinner.
The two of them dated for an entire afternoon. Although they didn't communicate much in the process, they got along quite well.
After leaving the restaurant, Qin Luo said out of courtesy,""I'll take a taxi to send you home."
Ji Yan shook his head." My house is quite close to here. It's only a ten-minute walk."”
After saying that, Qin Luo saw Ji Yan's hesitant expression and was about to change his words when Ji Yan nodded."Alright."
……
The neon lights complemented each other, making Shanghai more charming at night than during the day.
Some people were busy taking a break from the 996 blessings, while others were busy until now and had just gotten off work. The buses alternated between stopping and leaving. The lights intertwined with the green leaves of early summer and brushed across every passerby on the street.
A few young girls in beautiful clothes were holding hands as they walked together. They were holding milk tea or Starbucks coffee in their hands. They were holding their phones and constantly changing their postures, showing off their youthfulness in the selfie.
A well-dressed city beauty walked across the street and attracted the attention of a bespectacled boy. He accidentally knocked into a telephone pole and almost fell.
There was also an old couple. The old lady was sitting in a wheelchair with a dull expression. The old man was pushing the wheelchair behind her and holding a big yellow dog.
They stood on the opposite side of the road waiting for the traffic lights to turn. The old man lowered his head and said something to the old woman from time to time, with a calm smile on his face.
Qin Luo and Ji Yan walked side by side, their steps slow. They looked like a couple, but there seemed to be a vague barrier between the two of them, making them not speak a word after walking for a long time.
Finally, Ji Yan stopped in front of the gate of a residential area.
"I'm here," she stammered.”
" Mm." Qin Luo nodded calmly.
Ji Yan didn't leave immediately. She looked up at Qin Luo, her mouth opening and closing as if she wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in her throat.
When she saw that Qin Luo was about to turn around and leave, she finally made up her mind and said what she had buried in her heart.
"I…I actually wanted to apologize to you.”
" It's not because of that," Ji Yan interrupted. His face was slightly red and he seemed a little embarrassed.
"Then why should I apologize?"
" It's because of what happened before." Ji Yan took a deep breath and lowered his eyes."You confessed to me so many times before, but I never agreed to it even once.”
" The rejection at the beginning was out of habit. I'm used to rejecting others and staying away from them. This has something to do with my personality and also…my mother's upbringing. However, I don't blame my mother because I know she's doing this for my own good.”
" But it's also because of this that I've developed my current personality…At first, I thought you were the same as the others who approached me, but later I realized that you're different from them.”
"I don't know when it started, but I've gotten used to your confessions. On the surface, I look like I don't care, but actually…I really care.”
"Sometimes, when your confession is a little late, I feel inexplicably anxious. I keep looking out the window, wondering if you've given up.”
"Sometimes when it's windy and rainy outside, I'm afraid that you'll stubbornly run to me again. I hope that you at least know how to shelter yourself from the wind and rain.”
" I thought that I was just being sympathetic, but it wasn't until a few days ago when you told me that you were going to give up that I realized that I…"
At this point, Ji Yan's voice suddenly paused, as if he was shy or reserved, and he did not dare to finish his sentence.
She carefully raised her head and met Qin Luo's gentle gaze. She also saw the gentle smile on his lips.
This smile seemed to give Ji Yan some courage. She took another deep breath and said firmly,"I want to apologize for hurting you 99 times in the past. At the same time, I don't want our relationship to end here, so I hope…I hope that we can give each other another chance!”
After she finished speaking, she stared at Qin Luo without blinking. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her fair hands clenched unconsciously. Her eyes did not blink, and every part of her body seemed to express the nervousness in her heart.

Qin Luo looked at her quietly, then suddenly raised his hand and helped her brush her messy bangs under Ji Yan's stunned gaze.
Actually, I didn't really understand today's movie. I'll watch something else when I have time next time." After he finished speaking, he pointed at the sculpture of the little girl in Ji Yan's hand and said,""Be careful, don't lose it."
Ji Yan's expression was a little dazed, and then his eyes gradually brightened. He seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and his expression became relaxed. He replied heavily,"Yes!"
"Alright, let's go home." Qin Luo smiled.”
"Then I'll go home first. You go home early too…Good night.”
Ji Yan said as he turned around and left. She did not even notice that she was like a happy little girl as she walked, jumping up and down from time to time, exuding a lively and lively aura.
She hummed in a light tone and slowly returned home. When she reached the door, she took a deep breath to calm herself down before opening the door and entering the house.
" Mom, I'm back," she said softly, but there was no response.
She was not surprised because every time she came back, there would always be no one at home, but her mother would come back soon.
When he asked her where she had gone, she said that she was taking a walk downstairs. Ji Yan had never taken this matter to heart and was used to it.
Ji Yan hurried into the bathroom, removed the light makeup on his face, and quickly returned to his bedroom.
She placed the little girl sculpture in the box on the table, then crossed her hands on the table. She placed her chin on her hands and tilted her head to look at the little girl sculpture in front of her.
The scenes that she had experienced with Qin Luo today flashed through her mind. In the end, she stopped at the scene of him gently brushing her bangs.
Ji Yan's lips unconsciously curled up into a sweet smile.
