    ?

    Han Dong's blurted cry brought back the girl's slack soul, her dark pupils struggled to move, and finally landed on the long-handled umbrella hanging upside down by the table.  She tried her best to hold the corner of her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything, so she walked over quickly with her head down, picked up her umbrella, and disappeared outside the glass door again.

    Han Dong's heart was in a mess, and his chest felt tight and painful.  He didn't know how much Ah Shi had listened to the conversation just now, but judging by her expression, she must be very hurt.

    He turned his head angrily, gave Guo Xuemei a hard look, and ran after her.

    Guo Xuemei stood behind the counter alone, feeling the air around her become cold.  She found that facing such a situation, she couldn't gloat at all, and the loneliness in her heart was even deeper, causing waves of regret and worry¡ªwas the words just now a little too much?

    Han Dong walked very fast, and at the corner of the next cafe, he had already rushed behind Xiaoshi.

    As soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed the girl's arm, anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but increase his strength.

    Xiaoshi frowned, was forced to stop, but did not turn around, let the man hold her arm, bowed her head in silence, but her back was straight, showing coldness and stubbornness.

    Han Dong asked nervously, "Are you okay?"

    Xiaoshi didn't answer, but stared down at the tip of her shoe.

    How can it be all right?

    Just now she was going back to get the umbrella, but she overheard such words, every sentence stabbed the most painful place in her heart, with malicious speculation.

    But what can she care about?

    Xiaoshi closed her eyes, took a deep breath, raised her head slowly, smiled in the direction of the wind, and said, "It's all over."

    The voice is as light as a breeze, and the tone is as light as a cloud.

    Han Dong let go of the girl's arm, and looked into her eyes. The black and white pupils were full of water, and there was a sense of melancholy that had to be let go.

    Han Dong remembered this kind of gaze¡ª¡ªthe gaze that made him feel distressed and helpless the most.

    There was a chill in his voice: "You know that person is back?" He didn't even want to mention his name, how many times he had gritted his teeth and said those three words silently.

    Xiao Shi nodded.

    Han Dong's heart sank, and his bad premonition became stronger and stronger, "You and Xiaokang, it's not because of his quarrel, right?"

    Xiao Shi was speechless for a while, and the situation of yesterday was churning in his mind.  That's it?  or not?

    When Han Dong saw her groaning silently, he took it as acquiescence, and his expression became serious instantly, from a friend who cared but was chaotic to an elder brother who was angry and indisputable.

    "Ashi, don't be so confused again! How nice a well-off person is! You know how he treats you, and I can see it too! What's even more rare is that he also does his best to your parents. When you meet such a  Good man, it's not easy!" His tone was full of anxiety and reproach, together with unspeakable pity, he threw his head and face at Xiao Shi.

    Xiao Shi knew what he meant.

    Indeed, Kang Ning's kindness to her parents is not just as simple as caring and greetings, it is simply kind.

    That was two years ago, she was still studying in Beijing, and Kang Ning was in the Beijing headquarters of Hirata Pharmaceuticals. She hadn¡¯t been sent to Shanghai yet, and she wasn¡¯t her boyfriend yet. She was just one of her suitors¡ªthe most tenacious and enthusiastic  Suitors.  Before the Spring Festival, the father of the old lung disease developed bullae and pneumothorax. The situation was very serious and he needed emergency surgery.  Yongde's medical conditions are not good, so Xiaoshi's family rushed to Kunming overnight, but as the Spring Festival approached, all the experts in the hospital were on vacation, and the mother and daughter were extremely anxious.  When Kang Ning learned about it, he immediately flew to Kunming, and with the help of his accumulated contacts in pharmaceutical companies, he entrusted the best specialist in thoracic surgery to perform the operation on his father.  The operation was successful, and my father was out of danger and recovering gradually.  From then on, Xiaoshi could no longer be indifferent to this man's overtures.  She told herself in her heart that this was a good person worth entrusting, so she agreed to establish a relationship with him.  Without Kang Ning, my father might not be alive now.

    Xiao Shi bowed his head in silence, Han Dong's emotions became more and more agitated, and the scenes that made him feel distressed appeared before his eyes again: her tears, hopelessness, sadness, her pale and slumped face in the hospital, her shoulders twitching from crying under the street lamp  ¡­

    He tensed his voice so as not to lose control due to excitement, and asked: "Tell me, what did that person do for you? He only has himself, his family's property, and his bright future in his heart.  His wealth, status, anyway, everything is ahead of you! A man like him is not worthy of your love. He doesn't care about you at all, otherwise, he wouldn't let you suffer so much. Ah Shi, you  Don't heal the scar and forget the pain!"

      A muffled thunder rolled over, as if crushing Xiaoshi's heart.  The throbbing heart was shattered into pieces, as if it was no longer my own, so I couldn't feel the pain anymore.

    Xiaoshi raised her head, looked at the cloudy sky, and said lightly, "It's going to rain." I don't know if she was talking to Han Dong or talking to herself.

    After finishing speaking, she smiled gratefully at Han Dong, and instead of saying "goodbye", she turned and left lightly.

    Han Dong didn't chase after him, and he didn't say anything more. He had already said what he should say.

    He watched the girl's back gradually drifting away in the gray air, and suddenly felt powerless like never before.

    Before he came to Shanghai, the girl's mother repeatedly asked him to take care of her daughter, saying that she had never left home since she was a child, and had never suffered.  At that time, he just agreed cheerfully, but he didn't realize it, and still hurt her.

    So this time, never do it again!  No matter who it is, don't hurt her again!

    Xiaoshi had already walked away, but Han Dong was still standing there, and the light in his eyes became more determined.

    Even if I can't walk with you, I still want to watch you walk well!

    Xiaoshi finished walking the small street full of coffee shops, passed the bus station, and passed the subway entrance, but kept walking.  She didn't want to take a car, and she didn't want to go home, she just wanted to walk like this.

    It's raining, as if I can't hold back the tears in my eyes.  The sound of heavy traffic became very distant in the rain, and only the sound of raindrops hitting the umbrella surface remained in my ears.  The voice was empty, as if hitting the eardrums directly, and then shook in the bottom of her heart. Together with Han Dong's words just now, it became the background sound in her mind: "He only has himself in his heart, his family's property, and his bright future.  wealth, statusa man like him is not worthy of your love for him. He doesn't really care about you at alldon't forget the pain when your scar is healed!"

    Repeated the cycle over and over until it brought out the dark image that she didn't dare to open in her sealed heart

    "Do you have to go to America?"

    The girl looked up at the man's face, unable to understand his sudden decision.  He once said that he would get engaged as soon as she graduated, and then take over the property in Shanghai; he had promised that he would convince his mother to agree to their marriage, and they would have a promising future.

    But now, everything has become out of reach.

    The kind of love that is not affected by time and space is idealized. The reality is that long-distance relationships rarely achieve positive results.  Especially in a situation like theirs, the disparity in family background and the opposition of their parents put too much pressure on this relationship. If it is far away across the ocean

    Unable to hear the man's answer, the girl's voice lowered, "We are already under a lot of pressure. If you leave again, I'm really afraid that our relationship will gradually fade and we will separate one day."

    The man lowered his head and stared into the girl's eyes, almost seeing her through. He put his steady and strong hand on her slightly trembling shoulders, and said word by word: "Remember, if one day we really  The separation will never be due to emotional reasons."

    This is really an ominous prophecy.  The girl felt that every nerve connected to her heart was aching stiffly. The pain of being about to lose tore apart her reserve and pride. She was willing to let go of everything and not leave in exchange for him.

    She has never bowed her head to anyone, even to a man's mother, such a strong woman, and such a sharp speech, she can calmly deal with it, neither humble nor overbearing.  However, now, she lowered her head and asked him for an answer with courage that knows no bounds: "If, I mean if, you will lose me if you go abroad, will you still go?"

    The man's deep breathing was close at hand and could be faintly heard. His tone was very calm, so calm that it was a little cold, "Your assumption is meaningless. I don't think there is any relationship between the two."

    The girl still looked at him stubbornly and said, "Negating the question is not the answer."

    This is simply asking for humiliation.  Sure enough, the man's eyes became complicated, and he said slowly, "If you insist on asking me to choose one of the two, then I can only tell you, don't be too attached to anything."

    The girl smiled slightly, she understood what he meant.  She should have known such an answer a long time ago, didn't she?  The man in front of him has too many things to do, what is she compared to his great career that day?  But why is she not reconciled?  Do you have to listen to him say it himself, and tear up her last pitiful self-esteem before you give up?

    At this time, the man's gloomy voice sounded again, with some of the softness she was familiar with, "Yanyan, I never thought of giving up on you, but there are some things that I'm not sure about myself. So, I can't ask  What are you, can you understand?"

    "But I am willing." The girl said affirmatively.

    In fact, when she heard the word "Yanyan", she had already surrendered.  He doesn't call her that often, only a few times, when the happiness and happiness of the two of them getting along is beyond words, he can't help calling her "Yanyan".

    In this world, apart from her dearest parents, only he would call her that.  Such a loving and pampering title fell directly on her heart.

    The girl's eyes were filled with water, and she repeated firmly: "I will wait for you."

    However, what are you waiting for?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)"But I would," said the girl with certainty.
