"Sorry …" I... "My phone just started." Xia An panicked as he spoke.
"I"m not blaming you. Why are you apologizing so seriously? What"s the arrangement for noon? We"ll eat together. " Gong Yuze"s voice carried through the microphone, appearing exceptionally clear and attractive.
Xia An"s breath caught in her throat as she refused, "I"m sorry, but we have a guest at noon. I want to stay at home to help my mom entertain the guest."Xia An closed her eyes a little and continued to cruelly refuse, "Guest may have to stay until night before you leave. I …" I have to be home!
Gong Yuze remained silent for a few seconds, feeling a little depressed. "Alright, then I"ll go look for you at your house at nine o"clock. Come down and we"ll meet."
"It"s too late. Go home and rest!" Xia An wanted to push it away.
"I won"t be able to sleep without seeing you." Gong Yuze immediately smiled warmly.
If these words were spoken before, then Xia s.h.i.+an would have felt extremely sweet. But now, the more he showed love and love towards her, the more she felt fl.u.s.tered and fl.u.s.tered.
"Must we?" Xia An sighed softly.
"Unless you don"t want to see me." After Gong Yuze finished speaking, he continued to ask with a low voice: "Tell me, do you want to see me?"
While holding the phone in his hand, Xia Ran"s face was filled with tears as he listened to his father"s words.
It took a lot of effort for her to control her breathing, and she pretended to be busy with her calm voice. "The guests are coming soon. My mom wants me to go buy something. Can we talk later?"
"Good!" Go! Be careful, you"re so beautiful, I"m afraid someone else might try to take you away. " Gong Yuze teased her humorlessly.
The instant that Xia An put down his phone, his heart broke. She just stood there covering her mouth and crying uncontrollably as she endured the grief in her heart.
When Cheng Yu came out, he just so happened to see this scene, his heart also tensed up. He quickly walked over, and as he handed over the paper, he asked anxiously, "What happened? What happened? Who bullied you? Is that your boyfriend? "
Xia An took the paper from him and covered his eyes with his tears. She shook her head, but couldn"t find the words to speak.
It had already been more than ten minutes since Xia Anning calmed down. Cheng Yu had been trying to console her from the side, but he did not know what exactly had happened to her.
"I"m fine now, thank you, Cheng Yu." Xia An exhaled a breath of the slightly cold air of early autumn and calmed down.
"What"s going on? If your boyfriend doesn"t treat you well, break up! "You have so many people who would like it. If it really comes down to it, I"m willing to be the one who dotes on you and take care of you." Cheng Yu took this opportunity to confess his fondness for her in his eyes.
Xia An was startled, and his eyes turned red as he stared at Qin Wentian. He felt a sense of fear and trepidation in his heart.
Cheng Yu looked at her firmly, and did not try to avoid her anymore, "An Ran, don"t tell me you didn"t know? "In junior high school, when you became my tablemate, I fell for you and liked you for a long time. Until now, I have never forgotten you, and other than visiting my family, the person I wanted to see the most is you."
Xia An dumbfoundedly stared at his former tablemate and cla.s.smate. She really didn"t know that he would have such feelings for her.
"Cheng Yu... "You …" Xia Ran didn"t know what to say anymore.
"Don"t worry, I won"t force you to be with me on purpose. I"m just saying that if your boyfriend isn"t suitable for you and bullies you, you can have another choice." Cheng Yu comforted her gently.
Xia An painfully shook his head. "He didn"t bully me."
"Then why are you so sad? Is it because you can"t be together? " Cheng Yu guessed and asked.
The pain in Xia An"s eyes multiplied, and Cheng Yu immediately understood. His guess was right, he really wanted to know what the man Xia An liked looked like.
Everyone felt that they were not bad at all.
"Cheng Yu, I"m sorry. I need to go home! "Goodbye." Xia An turned around and left. Not long after she took a few steps, a message came out of her phone. Xia An opened it, and saw that it was from Lan Ying.
It was a mother"s face, cut off from the video. Xia An"s breathing immediately stopped. She quickly pressed down the photo in panic, as if it would be discovered by everyone around her.
Xia An walked out of the residential complex and saw that his mother was chatting with a few neighbors, who knew where these neighbors got the news, that Xia An"s boyfriend was very rich, and that they were all envious of Xia Shuhua"s good daughter!
Xia Shuhua was in a good mood being praised by her neighbors, smiling all over.
Xia Shuhua, who was standing not too far away, watched this scene. She truly couldn"t imagine what kind of treatment her mother would receive if she failed to fulfill Lan Ying"s conditions and her mother"s past was exposed to the public.
And would these neighbors still look at her with such envy? She was afraid that the worst words would come out, because her mother was a very high-profile person. She knew that these neighbors seemed to be friendly to her, but in reality, there were also a lot of cases where her mother wasn"t willing to pa.s.s her down.
She had seen her mother quarrel with a neighbor who had moved away. The woman had said something unpleasant, and her mother had sat in the room and secretly shed tears.
She really didn"t want to see her mother treated like this again.
As a child, even if the world were to criticize her, all she could do was protect her.
