Chapter 37: Abandoned Sea of Flowers - 1
He ignored my surprise but opened the door of the car and picked me up. I instinctively put my arms around his neck with this sudden hug.
I looked at his close face and lowered my head slightly shyly. Although I was not very heavy, his movements were so light and skillful, like holding a big doll and putting me into the co-pilot position in the car. He helped me fasten my seat belt and carefully adjusted himself before getting into the car.
We didn't say anything along the way, and his car drove smoothly and slowly. This is my first time to make a sports car. I thought it would be a cool scene with wind blowing and messy hair, but now I just feel the comfort of a breeze.
The old Beijing city at night is noisy and noisy. Looking at the sight of thousands of lights in the distance, every light is warm, which makes people can't help touching it in this cool night.
I took off my glasses and let the light in front of me become blurred and bright.
I hope that when I get home, I can also see the warm light of my house and my mother's busy figure through the window. That's something I never cared about before. It's as natural and normal as getting up and eating every day, but now it's so luxurious.
"Can you drive faster?" I looked at the passers-by and said to him.
"Catch it."
As soon as the words fell, the warm wind suddenly suddenly changed, roaring through my ears, and my hair was blown around in the wind. The people and buildings that flew by, and the light spots were connected by speed and crossed in front of me like countless meteors.
Slowly getting used to this feeling, I slowly loosened my hand holding the door, raised it high and shouted loudly, as if it were joy in the eyes of outsiders, and I did vent the sadness I had endured for a long time in my heart.
I poked my head out and looked at the way home in front of me. The wind mixed with cold slapped me on my face, with a faint tingling feeling, but I liked this feeling.
"Don't let her worry about you when she rests." He grabbed my shoulder and pulled back the probing head.
He still looked at the car ahead and drove seriously, but his hand slipped from my shoulder to my hand, and I could feel that he was holding my hand tightly.
I looked at him and his face shining in the night, warming the little me in this mechanized city. And he knows how many emotions are hidden in my sadness and joy.

On weekends, Ye Yichen will accompany me in the hospital from morning to night, so Situ Lei will not appear on this day. He is obviously deliberately hiding from Ye Yichen.
"Ziyang, how long did Luolin ask for leave?" Situ Lei sat on the court and muttered into a bottle of water.
"For a long time." Liu Ziyang hesitated and looked hard to say.
"Do you have something to hide from me?" Liu Ziyang's personality has always been straightforward, and it will definitely reveal the truth when he lies or hides something. Especially to ask him directly like this.
They looked at each other quietly for a while. Finally, Liu Ziyang couldn't stand Situ Lei's eyes that almost saw through him and confessed everything: "Okay, A Lei, don't look at me like that. Frankly, Luolin has been fired for a long time."
After hearing this, Situ Lei suddenly stood up, pulled down the towel on his neck and fell to the ground and ran out of the court. He didn't even change his clothes and stepped on the accelerator all the way out.
"A Lei, don't let Luo Lin know that it's what I said, or she should blame me." Liu Ziyang sat on the ground and shouted.
Situ Lei did not go to Luo Lin, but drove home directly.
"Dad!" He slammed the door open.
Situ Bohan was chatting with An Jingran on the balcony at this time.
"Xiao Lei is back. Uncle An hasn't looked at you for a long time. Come and let me have a look." An Jingran was very enthusiastic about his future son-in-law.
"Uncle An, I have something to tell him. Can you go out for a while?"
An Jingran left the room blankly and patted Situ Lei on the shoulder when he went out: "Son, it's not easy for your father. Don't force him too much."
"Why did you fire her? Don't tell me that you believed the ridiculous remarks of those people on the board of directors, so that I would look down on you even more."
"It's not what I believe, but all the facts are in front of me. I can't pretend to be public for personal gain."
"What kind of fact is this? Have you considered her feelings?"
Situ Lei's voice has no ups and downs, and the father and son have been having a dialogue. No one can hear their really low roar.
"I have been investigating this matter, and I will not wrong a student. Even if she is my daughter, I can't cover up and condone her. You are too emotional. Sooner or later, your character will suffer losses.
"Really, am I too emotional or are you too cold-blooded?"
Situ Lei opened the door and was ready to leave. An Jingran had actually been leaning against the door to listen to the movement inside. Suddenly, he opened the door without any warning and staggered and almost fell down. He looked at Situ Lei and smiled awkwardly.
"Xiaolei, come home for dinner in the evening. I haven't seen you for a holiday." An Jingran tried to ease this scene.
"No, Uncle An, I'm really sorry to let you misunderstand for so many years. I have always regarded An as my sister, and I haven't developed the relationship with her as you think. You guys, I've left in advance.
"Bohan, what does he mean?" An Jingran instantly raised his face and looked at Situ Bohan and asked.
"I found my daughter." Situ Bohan sat on the sofa, picked up a cigarette from the coffee table with trembling hands and slowly inhaling it. With the exhalation of a thick smoke, he gradually regained his composure.
"After knowing the truth, Xiaolei has been looking for the child abandoned by me. I thought she had died a long time ago, so I let him do such nonsense, at least he doesn't fight with people all day long. I thought it would make him sensible.
Situ Bohan continued to smoke and said.
"Xia Luolin, who was expelled from our school a few days ago, is the only child of Yuwei and me. I didn't expect Xiaolei to take on the responsibility I owe her after finding her. I don't know if he really likes the child or wants to pay the debt for me.
"She already knows the truth?" An Jingran also picked up a cigarette.
"No, he wanted to hide it from her all his life and repay it with his life. When Xiaolei found the child, he began to change slowly. He thought he had hidden it well, but I can know that he couldn't escape his inner condemnation."
The eyes of the two people filled the air and gradually dissipated, just like what they were talking about at the moment. No matter how important he was, in their mouths, he would eventually disappear in the air like this blue smoke.
An Jingran listened to him slowly and finally understood why his daughter had been so scared like a frightened bird this year.
"Xiaolei only felt that he had taken away everything that originally belonged to Luolin, but I wanted to compensate for what Yuwei and I owe her. I can't delay Xiaolei for a lifetime like this. Although he is not my own son, I raised him. I can't..."
Situ Bohan lowered his head and didn't know how painful and helpless his face was at this moment.
"Tell her." An Jingran leaned on the sofa and took a deep breath of smoke with his eyes closed. At this moment, he also deeply felt that the appearance of this girl named Xia Luolin had threatened too many people.
-
Why do you hide everything from me? It's because I can't protect you or you haven't believed me or liked me from beginning to end. How can I be inferior to Ye Yichen?
How many of your hugs, kisses and intimate sleep together in the Hangzhou Hotel are the lingering that I haven't seen before.
These things that make him hate. What he has wanted to do but hasn't done are like an immovable projector circulating in his mind. Whether he wants to see it or not, it can't be removed. Situ Lei's heart became more and more unable to calm down, and he could only drive a car and roar on the road, allowing this kind of emotion to rage.
"luolin." Situ Lei came to the hospital aggressively and opened the door.
"How do you..."
I looked at Situlei at the door and looked at Ye Yichen in the room, thinking about why Situlei came at this time. Won't he meet Ye Yichen?
Ye Yichen stood up in front of me, as if she was afraid that I would look at Situ Lei: "What's the matter with you?"
"It's nothing to you. I'll find her." Situ Lei said bluntly.
"She is my girlfriend. How can you have nothing to do with her?"
The air seemed to freeze, and I was angry at what he blurted out. But he didn't react for a moment and immediately made an explanation to clarify himself.
"Xia Luolin, tell me yourself now. Are you his girlfriend?"
Ye Yichen is in the middle of us like this. I can't see Situ Lei's expression at this moment, and he can't see me either. He asked me gently and desperately, waiting for my sentence like a prisoner, whether it was life or death.
And at this moment, Ye Yichen also put away his previous self-confidence, because he knew that the sentence he just blurted out was too early. Even if we had been together for so long, he was not sure that I would be on his side.
To be precise, he should know clearly that I can never stand on his side. He has never taken too much weight in my heart.
"No."
Although I have hesitated and struggled in my heart, no matter how I answer this question, I will stab one of them, but I resolutely chose to protect Situ Lei.
When I immediately denied what he had just said on impulse, Ye Yichen slowly moved away from the body that had been blocking me all the time.
The moment Situ Lei saw me, a faint smile appeared on his face. Maybe he was satisfied, or maybe his long-awaited heart finally got the long-awaited comfort.
We came to the garden downstairs. Ye Yichen and I bumped into each other here, were secretly photographed, and inexplicably seen by Situ Lei, where all the misunderstandings began.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Situ Lei asked.
"What?"
"Why don't you tell me that you were fired? Do you think I can't protect you, or do you acquiesce to being wronged by that group of people from the bottom of your heart and then leave Minghan?"
"Because you said you would never meet again, I thought we would never have any intersection like strangers from now on, and this is my business. No matter what I think I can't throw it to you to deal with. But fortunately, I dropped out of school, otherwise I wouldn't have such a loose time to spend with my mother. I smiled.
"After I said that to you, as you just said, I will also go to see you in the mood of being a stranger in the future. Even now, it is still the same."
What Situ Lei said was very frank and did not deny what he said in Hangzhou.
"Then you still come to face me every day."
"I just don't want to do something that I regret." With that, he put my head on his shoulder and let me rely on it. I won't let you go inexplicably anymore."
His hand gently stroked my long hair and leaned on his shoulder. He was sober and felt him beside me.
After returning to the ward, Ye Yichen has left quietly without any signs. I know that he will be hurt by what I just said, but I can't deepen the gap between the three of us like this.
And I have already expressed my attitude. I would rather hurt him once now than let him suffer for a lifetime in the future.
"Mom, wake up quickly. If you don't get up, your daughter will become a puppy. I gently put my mother's hair behind my ears.
