Summer's Desire

Chapter 12
"The Prosperity of the World" has officially started filming. Amidst the heated public opinion and media attention, Luo Xi's brilliance has attracted all the eyes of the world.The publicity he made for the new play, his dazzling makeup photos, and the peerless demeanor of his acting that were occasionally captured by media reporters when they visited the set all triggered wave after wave of upsurge.

When the ambiguous relationship between Yin Xiamo and Ou Chen was exposed, Luo Xi's relationship problem immediately became the focus of most attention among all the hot spots.And the female lead in "A Prosperous World" is played by Shen Qiang, Luo Xi's former rumored girlfriend, which can't help but make people's imaginations run wild.

If there is an actress in the entertainment circle whose appearance, status and reputation can match Luo Xi, there is no other actress except Shen Qiang.Although Shen Qiang has a cold and arrogant personality and rarely cooperates with reporters' interviews, her beautiful singing voice and unique temperament make her an unshakable queen in the music world.Moreover, she is frank and honest, and never hides her appreciation for Luo Xi. Although she was saddened by the scandal between Luo Xi and Yin Xiamo, so that she became thin and silent for a while, she did not include Luo Xi in the list of refusal to cooperate. His generosity and openness are evident.

Whenever a reporter went to visit "The Prosperity of the World", after meeting Shen Qiang, besides asking about the progress of the filming, the most interesting thing was her current relationship with Luo Xi.

"I heard that Luo Xi and Yin Xiamo have broken up. Is this true?"

At the filming scene, Shen Qiang had just returned from filming a dance scene in the film when she heard the entertainment reporter from Inspur Studio who came to visit the set ask herself this question.

She looked up at Luo Xi who was talking to the director on the sidelines.He was far away from her, but he was dazzling like a strong white light, as if there was only that one person in the whole scene, and everything else faded into the shadows.

"I don't know."

Shen Qiang replied coldly, started to leave, ignoring Yu Ji's repeated shouts behind her.She walked to Luo Xi's side and listened quietly to him discussing the shooting with the director. After a while, Luo Xi turned to look at her. Her expression didn't change at all, but her heart seemed to be twisted hard by something.

It became increasingly unclear what Luo Xi was thinking.

When I first met Luo Xi, she was still a newcomer, but Luo Xi was already as popular as a myth.His beautiful appearance like cherry blossoms, his humble and gentle attitude, his gifted singing and acting skills made her heart that was not deeply involved in the world fall quickly.

However, as time passed, she gradually discovered that Luo Xi was completely different from her initial impression. Although she could get acquainted with him immediately, the closer she got, the farther away he was.The vague mist on his body is like an armor that keeps everyone out, hiding his loneliness, self-willedness, and childishness deeply. Under some real emotion.

Since the filming of "The Prosperity of the World", there has been a lot of speculation about whether he and Yin Xiamo have broken up. Luo Xi refused to answer the reporter's questions, with a flowery smile and a faint coldness in his eyes, making everything even more confusing.

She watched him calmly.

I've seen him talking on the phone with Yin Xiamo in the past, with tenderness in his eyes, a doting smile on his lips, smiling while listening, as if he was the child being coaxed.But in the past few days, he didn't call Yin Xiamo again, and his phone was turned off almost all the time, as if he was devoting himself to filming.Under the strong light, he was suffocatingly beautiful, with pitch-black eyes and lips as bright as petals, that kind of beauty stunned all the staff, and that kind of beauty was mixed with extreme cold in a trance, It makes people shiver unknowingly.

Maybe we broke up, Shen Qiang thought to herself.

The more she is hurt, the more beautiful she is, the more hurt she is, the more indifferent she will be. Luo Xi's character is really like a child sometimes.

"Miss Shen, come here to take a group photo!"

The entertainment reporter who visited the class shouted loudly, and Shen Qiang's thoughts were interrupted. When she came to her senses, she found that Luo Xi had left to take pictures, and she was the only one left on the sidelines.Her eyes dimmed, she quickly gathered her mood and walked over.

The flash flashes continuously.

"Be intimate!"

"Shen Qiang, please smile!"

"Okay! Get closer!"

……

The photographer of Xinxun.com took pictures from different angles, constantly asking Luo Xi and Shen Qiang to pose in various poses. Luo Xi gently hugged Shen Qiang's shoulders, his breath surrounded her, and she began to lose her mind again.Suddenly, Yuji let out a low cry of surprise, and looked over her shoulder to the back. After a brief moment of astonishment, the cameraman hurriedly took pictures of the back, and at the same time, all the staff members showed surprised expressions.

Luo Xi looked sideways indifferently.

Shen Qiang was about to turn her head, but felt that Luo Xi's hand on her shoulder became stiff suddenly, and she couldn't help but look at him.His face was calm, but Shen Qiang sensed something was wrong, he seemed to have cooled down in an instant, the coldness emanating from the depths of his pupils made him seem to be submerged in ice water, Luo Xi icily Looking in that direction, Shen Qiang suddenly thought of the latest news...

The person who came, could it be...

……she?

Shen Qiang silently turned her head away.

That person has thick and curly long hair like seaweed, white skin like ivory, amber eyes as calm as the sea, and a graceful smile on the corner of his lips. He is holding a big paper bag in his hand. It really is Yin Xiamo who has been scandalized recently.Sensing her gaze, Yin Xiamo smiled and nodded to her. She didn't feel the fear of seeing the senior stars, nor did she show any concern for Luo Xi holding her shoulders. Her smile was as refreshing as the sea breeze. That feeling made Shen Qiang suddenly a little dazed. Chung.

Luo Xi's hand slowly released Shen Qiang's shoulder.

He didn't speak, but silently lowered his head and stared at Yin Xiamo, the corners of his lips still maintained the upward arc before, but his eyes were weird and cold.Everyone on the filming scene focused their attention, and the atmosphere suddenly became strangely quiet. Almost everyone knew the relationship between Luo Xi and Yin Xiamo, and almost everyone knew that Luo Xi and Yin Xiamo had recently broken up. Everyone looked at Luo Xi Xi looked at Yin Xiamo again, and the audience was silent.

Yin Xiamo smiled softly, as if nothing had happened, she took out the contents of the paper bag, there were a lot of fruits, and a big plastic box.At this moment, Jie Ni in the corner of the court had already reacted from her astonishment, and hurried to Yin Xiamo's side, took those things for Luo Xi, covered up the embarrassment of the atmosphere with a brisk smile, and said:
"Sister Xia Mo, are you here to visit the class?"

Yin Xiamo smiled and did not answer directly, but said: "Jie Ni, can you please give these fruits and sushi to the staff for me, everyone has been working hard lately."

"Oh well!"

Jie Ni saluted her again, and then distributed the fruits and sushi to the on-site staff.Each piece of sushi was exquisitely made, and under the amazement of the staff, the frozen atmosphere was suddenly broken.Although Shen Qiang didn't know why Yin Xiamo came here, but with this kind of gentle and composed manner, she couldn't help restraining her mentality of despising Yin Xiamo.

"Xia Mo, have you seen the latest news?"

The Entertainment Journalist of Inspur Studio asked happily, did not expect to see the three protagonists in the recent hot scandal when visiting the class today, but Yin Xiamo looked calm and did not seem to be troubled by any rumors, which made him feel like falling for a while in the fog.

"What news?" Yin Xiamo asked.

"There are rumors that you have a close relationship with Ou Chen of the Ou Group recently, and there are rumors that you and Luo Xi have broken up..." Yu Ji said slowly, observing Yin Xiamo and Luo Xi carefully while talking, hoping to get back together Find clues in the expressions of the two.

Yin Xiamo was slightly stunned, and then glanced at Luo Xi beside him. Luo Xi seemed to be smiling but not smiling, his eyes were dark and deep. He didn't speak, as if he wanted to see how she would answer.She looked at Hui Yu Ji with a gentle smile, and said softly, "Does anyone believe such rumors?"

"..." Yuji was slightly astonished, but after all, he had experienced many battles, so he immediately turned to Luo Xi with a smile and said, "Does Luo Xi believe it or not?"

"Asheng," Luo Xi lazily hugged Yin Xiamo's shoulders, and kissed her on the cheek, "Do you think it looks like we broke up?"

"Uh……"

Ah Sheng looked at the two people in front of him in confusion. If he said they had broken up, why would Yin Xiamo come to visit Luo Xi's class? If he said they hadn't broken up, there seemed to be something wrong with the two of them being together.

"Please clarify for us in tomorrow's report, we are fine."

"Let's go." Luo Xi turned to Xia Mo, and then he never paid any attention to Yu Ji's answer, and walked towards the makeup lounge with his arms around Yin Xia Mo's shoulders.

Before Ah Sheng could react, the backs of the two had disappeared.Ah Sheng withdrew his gaze in embarrassment, and suddenly found that Shen Qiang was still standing there, looking sadly at the direction where the two disappeared. He was overjoyed, and quickly asked:

"Miss Shen, do you think Luo Xi and Yin Xiamo..."

"If you want to interview, please make an appointment with my manager." Shen Qiang also turned to leave, the sadness on her face seemed to have never existed, her demeanor was as cold and arrogant as usual.

*** ***
Luo Xi's exclusive lounge.

The windows were drawn with thick curtains, and the light in the room was dark, as if it had suddenly turned from day to night, only the small white lights around the makeup mirror were shining faintly, the desktop was piled up with various things in a mess, and the iPad on top was charging The photo of Yin Xiamo anxiously sending Ou Chen to the emergency room was still on on the screen.

Yin Xiamo put the paper bag in her hand on the dressing table, she picked up the PAD, her gaze stayed on the photo in the hospital for a few seconds, then she looked at Luo Xi, and said with a joking smile:
"Is that why you don't answer my calls?"

Roxie stopped pulling the curtains.

The curtains were only opened a little bit, and a ray of light came in, clearly drawing a line between light and dark in the room.Luo Xi was shrouded in light, while she stood in the shadow of the curtain.

A trace of uneasiness arose in Yin Xiamo's heart, and she stepped forward.

"brush--!"

The curtains were opened wide, and the bright sunlight shone in, making her unable to open her eyes for a moment.

Only then did Luo Xi turn her head to look at her, and said in a calm voice:
"Why did you come?"

Yin Xiamo was stunned, let her mind calm down, walked back to the dressing table, took out some fruits and a blue bento box from the paper bag, she looked up at him, and smiled a little playfully: "Someone did something for no reason. Missing, let me make sure if he is still on Earth."

She tried hard to break the gloomy atmosphere in the room, but Luo Xi didn't answer her words. Yin Xiamo suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, raised the lunch box in her hand, and said:

"The fruit has been washed, and you can eat it directly during filming. The sushi in the bento box is the sushi I made. There may be too much sushi, but if you don't finish it today, throw it away tomorrow."

"Thank you."

The lunch box had already been handed to him before Luo Xi reached out to take it.Under her expectant eyes, he opened the bento box conveniently, and saw about twenty pieces of sushi inside, each of which was different in shape, small and exquisite, and the colors were so cute and bright.

He lowered his head, looking at the sushi that obviously took a lot of effort to make, and didn't make a sound for a long time.

Yin Xiamo was a little nervous:
"What's the matter? Don't you like it?"

Luo Xi slowly closed the lunch box, looking at her with beautiful eyes, but inexplicably with a trace of bitterness: "Xia Mo, do you know? Sometimes, I am very afraid that one day you will be very kind to me .”

She stared at him blankly.

"Someone once gave me a big and sweet ice cream, but after I finished eating, she disappeared." He looked up, closed his eyes and said mockingly, "It seems that every time happiness reaches its peak, it is It's the beginning of the tragedy."

"If I finish all the sushi, will you disappear too?"

The sun shone brightly and surrounded Luo Xi, he stood alone, his skin was as white as if it were transparent, and his lips seemed to be transparent as well.

Although he didn't understand what he was talking about, Luo Xi, who was immersed in sadness, made Xia Mo feel a little distressed.She went up and hugged him, and said softly:

"No, I won't see you."

"Really?" There was a slight suspicion in Luo Xi's voice, he pushed her away and said word by word, "But, I don't trust you anymore."

Yin Xiamo's heart suddenly throbbed.

"Is it because of those photos? So, that's why you don't answer my calls these days?"

The room was silent in response to her.

The pain in her heart gradually intensified, and there was even a hint of despair and grievance in her heart. Even when she was attacked and slandered by Anhui Ni, she never felt such despair-like emotions.

"You said you would trust me."

In the end, she could only speak quietly like this.

"Yes, I said it before." Luo Xi said sneeringly, "but what did you repay me?" She was hanging her head, her long eyelashes cast a peaceful shadow on her cheeks, the angle was actually the same as that in the photo She looked down at Ou Chen from the same angle...

His eyes dimmed.

The pain in my heart seemed to be twisted.

"I didn't lie to you." Yin Xiamo said hoarsely.

"Yes, you didn't lie to me, but chose to mislead me..." The darkness in Luo Xi's eyes and the careless smile on his lips seemed so incongruous, "When I asked you if you went to see Ou Chen, you But he said, you didn't make any deal with him, and you didn't promise him any conditions..."

"That's the truth."

"But, what I'm asking is whether you have seen him..."

"Is there a difference? What do you care about?" She frowned, trying to express herself clearly so that he would not misunderstand, "If what you mind is that I see him, then now I am in the Oushi Group How could this kind of thing be avoided? If you mind if I agreed to some of his requests because of the "Battle Flag" incident, then even now I can say it again—no!"

"So, you have indeed seen him." His eyes became darker and darker, and the mist in his eyes made his face almost enchantingly beautiful.

Yin Xiamo hesitated for a moment, knowing that this question could no longer be avoided.

"……Yes."

"Are you looking for him, or is he looking for you?" The voice was like night fog.

Her heart sank suddenly, and another half hour passed.

"...I was the one who went to find him."

"Did I tell you, don't go to him and beg him because of the "Battle Flag"?"

"..."

"Before, did I ask you not to meet him or talk to him, no matter what the reason was, and how did you agree to me?" Luo Xi stared at her with dark eyes.

…………

……

The night before going to Japan for location shooting...

"Don't meet him." Luo Xi's throat was rough, "Don't let him see you either. If you accidentally meet him, don't talk to him, and don't listen to him talk to you..."

Wrapped in the white sweater on his chest, her mind was in a mess, she was a little out of breath, and she was slightly stunned, not knowing what to say...

"Did you hear me?……"

"..."

"Otherwise I'll be sad... very sad... hear you?" Luo Xi ruffled her long hair depressedly.

"Okay..." she said softly.

"Xia Mo," he smiled happily, put his chin on the top of her head and rubbed it lightly, "I think I'm actually very happy..."

……

…………

"I went to him because..."

"I don't want to hear it!" Luo Xi's eyes were full of fragility and pain, "You always have a lot of excuses and reasons!"

"...It's because I don't want him to blame you because of my relationship. It's time for the past to end!" Yin Xiamo gritted her teeth, and finally insisted on finishing what she wanted to say.

"It's over..." Luo Xi laughed, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, her eyes were full of wet light, "... Looking at Ou Chen who was being rescued with such anxious and concerned eyes, this Is this what you call the end?!"

"..." She trembled slightly.

"How do you want me to trust you?" Sensing the abnormal expression on her face, Luo Xi's lips became even more icy, he gently inserted his hands into her long hair, and whispered, "Even if you promised not to go to him, Even if you promised that you would never talk to him even if you met him occasionally, you ran to see him by yourself; you obviously met him, but when I asked you, you talked about it; you kept telling me that I had no business with him , but took over the "Golden Dance" in the blink of an eye..."

"..."

"Heh, maybe you didn't go to him for me, but for yourself." His smile was as beautiful as cherry blossoms, the shards of cherry blossoms were blown down by the wind in early summer, "I remember you once said, You have no love in your heart, what you want is success, and for success, you will do whatever it takes. So, now you decide to give up on me for your chance?"

"You—do you think so?!"

Yin Xiamo's chest was in severe pain!
She looked at him, her heart was suffocated, and she desperately told herself that he spoke so sharply because he was hurt, but the pain in her heart gradually made her lips turn white.She suddenly didn't know why she was standing here, why she listened to him say these hurtful words to herself like a fool!

Seeing her suddenly pale face, Luo Xi felt extremely regretful!
No, he didn't mean that, he didn't really suspect her!If it's for the opportunities that Ou Chen can provide her, what she has to do is to break up with him, instead of standing here trying to explain to him.With her usual indifferent personality, if she didn't care about him, she wouldn't keep calling him, and even came to visit her class when he refused to answer her calls.

However, when she thought of those photos, she tied the green lace on Ou Chen with a gentle expression, and she looked at Ou Chen on the emergency bed with the anxious and concerned expression on her face...

Like the fog in the middle of the night, the unexplainable fear and insecurity made him feel as if a black hole was suddenly smashed out of his heart, and he fell straight down...

In the lounge, the two of them stared at each other stiffly, the pain and sadness in their eyes seemed to be a predestined curse that no one could undo, and suddenly they didn't know what to say, as if everything they said was wrong... …

"Dong dong."

Jenny knocked on the lounge door from outside.

"Luo Xi, the next scene is about to start, the director asks you to prepare."

Luo Xi silently looked at Yin Xiamo again, wanted to say something, but finally couldn't say it, and walked past her stiffly.Yin Xiamo stood in the backlight, her heart throbbing with pain, when the door was closed by him with a bang, the most painful string in her heart seemed to be broken...

*** ***
When Yin Xiamo returned home, it was already dark.Standing at the door, she took a deep breath, trying to hide all the gloomy expressions on her face, rubbed her face, and let a smile appear on her face. After she got used to smiling, she took out the key and opened the door.

"Xiao Cheng—"

She yelled softly while changing her slippers at the entrance.

No one around?
Xiaocheng should be at home at this time, but there is no one, no smell of food, and the light in the living room is also dimmed.She walked into the living room suspiciously, and the black cat rushed towards her like a black shadow. She was startled, but Milk screamed desperately, leading her to Xiaocheng's bedroom!
Press the switch.

The lights suddenly brightened!

Xiaocheng was lying on the bed, her eyes tightly closed, her pale face...

Yin Xiamo was shocked!
"Little Cheng..."

She rushed forward, her hands and feet became cold for no reason, her body was hot and cold, and her eardrums were so loud that her whole body was about to explode!

"Xiao Cheng—!"

"……sister……"

Slowly, as if awakened from sleep, Yin Cheng opened his eyes with difficulty. His eyes were a little loose at first, and he stared blankly at Yin Xiamo for a long time, and suddenly a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.He struggled to sit up, smiled softly and said:
"...Sister...you are back...I will cook..."

"Xiaocheng, are you feeling well?"

The unreasonable palpitations before made Yin Xiamo feel uneasy, she anxiously tried the temperature of his forehead with her palm, it seemed to be a low-grade fever, and seeing his pale and chapped lips, she felt even more frightened.

"I'm just a little sleepy... I've slept for too long..." The voice was intermittent, Yin Cheng leaned against the head of the bed and smiled comfortingly at her, "...Maybe I have a low-grade fever...It's okay...Lie down for a night...It will be fine ..."

"Meow meow--!"

Milk ran around Yin Xiamo's feet restlessly!
"Let's go to the hospital."

Yin Xiamo suddenly saw several bottles of new medicines on the bedside table that she hadn't seen before. One of the bottles was tilted upside down and the cap was not closed properly, and some white pills were scattered on the table.Xiaocheng is a tidy and careful child, she will never leave the medicine after taking the medicine, her heart sank straight down with a "thud", and all kinds of guesses that frightened her suddenly flashed.

"We're going to the hospital right away!"

"No...I'm really fine..." Yin Cheng smiled nonchalantly, "If sister...worry about me...you can make chicken wings for me...OK...the chicken wings my sister made last time were really delicious..." As he spoke, his voice became a little short of breath, and his lips became even paler.

"Little Cheng!"

Cold sweat broke out on his back, Yin Xiamo bit his lips tightly, calmed down his panic, and said softly:

"Lie down and have a good rest. If you have a fever, it might not be good to eat something greasy like chicken wings. I will make some porridge for you. Then I will ask my sister to accompany you to the hospital to see if you are okay. If there is nothing wrong, we will come back right away... ..."

"sister……"

"Sister, go make porridge for you." Yin Xiamo pushed Yin Cheng, who was about to get up, back on the bed, "You should rest for a while."

Hurriedly walking out of Yin Cheng's bedroom, Yin Xiamo closed the door, and then, her body gradually began to tremble!Luo Xi's indifference and stab wounds that made her sad before suddenly became less important. She only wanted Xiao Cheng to be well, she only wanted Xiao Cheng to live healthy!

She closed her eyes and silently repeated over and over again——

Xiaocheng...

Absolutely nothing can happen...

*** ***
Foam bar.

The most famous foam bar in the downtown area, the forest-like dark green neon signboard is shining in the night.The lights in the bar are dim, every corner is full of guests, the waiters shuttle back and forth, the sound of clinking wine glasses, whispers, loud laughter, the bartenders are dizzyingly playing many tricks to call out various A cocktail, the band sang rock and roll frantically on the front stage, making the lively atmosphere in the bar high to the highest point.

"Brother Luo Xi, I was your loyal fan before I debuted! I downloaded all your singles, watched all your movies, and even stayed up late to line up for an autograph session, and got your autograph!"

"The last time I went to the "Entertainment Star Show", the host asked me who my favorite star was, and I replied without thinking that it was Brother Luo Xi! In fact, I entered the entertainment industry only to see Brother Luo Xi with my own eyes. Yes, but I have never had a chance to cooperate, this time I found out that I can actually act in a movie with Brother Luo Xi, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep for several days!"

"Brother Luo Xi, let me offer you a toast first...I'm just starting out...I still need to be reminded of my acting skills..."

"..."

The sea-blue sofa and long armchairs divide this corner of the foam bar into a relatively independent small area, and more than a dozen actors and staff members of the "Prosperous World" crew chatted excitedly while drinking.

The dim light changes and blurs.

Luo Xi sat in the deepest part of the shadow, leaning against the sofa, clinking glasses with the crew casually.Diagonally across from him, Shen Qiang was also present, talking to an actor beside her.

The whole crew was very excited.

When the day's filming was over, when the assistant director proposed to go to the bar to relax, Luo Xi, who had never participated in such activities, unexpectedly agreed abnormally.What's more, Shen Qiang, who was also independent, also said that she would also participate.Going to a bar with two Uranus superstars is really a rare experience.Besides, Luo Xi was very kind today, she didn't refuse anyone who came to toast, and she didn't put on airs of a superstar at all!
Very loud in the bar.

None of the warm words in the air floated into Luo Xi's ears, but the intuition cultivated over the years made him able to cope with it even if he was completely absent-minded.On the stage of the bar, there is a girl in hot clothes singing. The girl looks familiar, but she can't remember where she saw it. Her typhoon is mature and sexy, and her singing voice is charming and slightly hoarse.

looked at her casually.

Under the blurred light and shadow...

That girl quietly transformed into another person...

With a faint smile and light eyes, her face as white as ivory and long hair as thick as seaweed made her look like a lazy little mermaid.Facing the microphone, she stared at him from afar and sang a song in a low voice:

"...

if crying and begging
If you pretend you don't know you've always loved her

if i get on my knees and beg you
can you stay for me

......"

Under the cherry blossom tree that year, when I heard her footsteps——

Maybe it sealed his fate.

Having been adopted countless times and then sent back to the orphanage, the 16-year-old is used to not having any expectations for the new environment.Sitting on the slightly damp bluestone platform in the courtyard, all he thought at that time was, how long will he stay this time?What excuse would the family use to send him back to the orphanage?

he……

I can no longer be happy...

Since the day his mother abandoned him.

There seemed to be a black hole in his heart, and some things had been completely hollowed out, leaving nothing in his chest.

Unknowingly, he is used to pretending to be excellent and perfect in front of strangers, with a smile hanging on the corner of his lips, but the black hole in his heart is cold.In the nightmare in the middle of the night, he tried to smile again and again and said: Mom, look, you gave up such an excellent me.

You - won't you regret it?

However, being abandoned is his fate after all...

Although this fate has too much deliberate participation by him.

Let excellence and sensibility become his armor, block anyone who tries to get too close to him, and use pride and smile to mock those children who are angry that their parents' love has been taken away by him.However, those children were his own, and he was just adopted, so how could he really take away their parents' love.

The result was that he was sent back repeatedly, and was even framed as a thief and arrested.In the eyes of the aunt in the orphanage, he is a poor child, but he just wants to ask his mother——

If he knew that he was abandoned, he would often cry at night and become unable to be happy anymore...

Even so……

mother--

Won't you regret it?

Sitting on the slightly damp bluestone platform in the courtyard, the cherry blossoms quietly bloomed behind the 16-year-old him. For some reason, the past suddenly came to his mind.When the sound of small and quiet footsteps sounded, he suddenly had a ridiculous illusion, thinking that it was his mother's return!
Suddenly I looked back and saw her——

Among the petals in the sky, the 15-year-old her has amber eyes as calm as the sea, not suitable for her age, but it made his heart suddenly become silent...

Thinking about it now, the feelings for her seemed to be groundless. At that moment, she was imprinted in his heart, and it was like a brand that he could never leave.

Her eyes can always easily see the bottom of his heart, and she has no interest in him, only when he intentionally or unintentionally hurt Xiao Cheng, she pounces on him like a baby bird, threatening him to restrain himself.In her heart, Xiao Cheng occupies an extremely important place, sometimes he even thinks that she lives for Xiao Cheng and does everything to make Xiao Cheng happy.

Later, she slowly accepted him and gradually treated him like a family member. Just when there was warmth in his heart, she completely tore up the warmth in his chest.

Perhaps in her opinion, she is utterly benevolent and even won him the opportunity to study abroad, but she didn't know how much he hated her!Just because his existence might affect Yin's father's work and Xiaocheng's future life, she calmly sent him away, without even the slightest hesitation or struggle in her eyes.

He thought it was hatred that made him unable to forget her during his days in England.Until one time, the wallet containing her photo was stolen, and he chased it like crazy for several streets, just to get back her photo in the empty wallet.At that time, he realized that in the deep hatred, there are more complicated feelings...

"...

i know you love her
love her like a diamond

even if she doesn't love you

you still love her foolishly
like i love you

foolishly in love with her

……

i can pretend i don't know you love her

i can cry and beg you
If kneeling in front of you can soften your heart

or even if i die

you won't stay either
......"

The figure of the girl on the stage was vague, with a white face and indifferent eyes in a trance. The singing was very quiet, as if it came from a far away place.

Luo Xi stared at her for a long time.

Eyes dark as night.

When I met her again five years later, her demeanor was even more serene, but even if she was just quietly in the corner, she still had the radiance and fragrance that made people intoxicated.

Perhaps the purpose of approaching her at the beginning was to take revenge on her, to seduce her, to make her fall in love with him, and to let her have a taste of the sad feelings he has never gotten rid of all these years.

But he overestimated himself.

As he got closer to her, his feelings seemed to have an independent consciousness.He can't help but love her, her quiet beauty is like a poppy, she hasn't fallen into it yet, he has already fallen into it.

This sinking frightened him.

Perhaps it was a fateful tragedy, he seemed to be able to see his own ending.

The more he loves her, the more he is afraid of her. It's like a dagger covered in honey is piercing his heart. It's so sweet and painful that it bleeds.

Although she seemed to have gradually fallen in love with him, there was always a kind of indifference in her eyes, as if she could leave him at any time, as if feelings were not that important to her.Sometimes, he felt that it was just an illusion, and she looked at him smiling without any alienation, clearly showing tenderness and love, but suddenly felt that the emotion in her eyes was his illusion...

Even when seeing those photos of her and Ou Chen together, the pain almost suffocated him.However, he didn't actually distrust her that much.

If she really planned to leave him, why would she come to visit and explain to him, and tried so carefully to make him happy, he understood, and regretted that he had said those words that hurt her impulsively.

only--

He's really scared...

She will leave him eventually, just like she indifferently sent him away five years ago, just like his mother abandoned him in the playground...

Although, she likes him, does she also like Ou Chen, otherwise, no matter what angle she is in, she can't capture her anxious and concerned expression in the photo; she likes him, but there may be many things in her heart that are more important than him He is important, you can gently leave him at any time, and leave quietly...

bottom of my heart...

A burst of coldness is slowly emerging...

Back in a trance a long time ago, when he was a child, he sat alone on a playground bench in the middle of the night, his limbs were frozen by the cold, and the blood in his body stopped flowing bit by bit... If you love her less, then Maybe it will be easier to bear when she leaves...

"Daisy! Daisy!"

"One more! Daisy—!"

There was warm applause and applause in the foam bar!
The depressed Luo Xi was awakened!
Under the rotating colorful light ball, the girl singing on the stage is not her at all, nor is the song "Diamond" that was sung just now.Hearing the shouts from the regular customers of the bar, Luo Xi suddenly understood the reason why she found this girl familiar.Daisy seemed to be a singer who entered Sun's company for training at the same time as her. Later, she won, and Daisy left, but now she is singing in this bar.

"...Know her?"

I don't know when the crew members around him have dispersed to dance, only Shen Qiang stayed and moved to sit beside him.

"do not know."

... Of course it couldn't be her.

Luo Xi silently drank the wine in the glass.When discussing where to go, he subconsciously said "foam bar", knowing that she would not appear here again, and he drove her away who came to visit the class.

"Just now I bet in my heart..."

Holding the wine glass in Shen Qiang's hand, she didn't look aloof and high-spirited in the usual way, she seemed to be a little drunk, her cheeks were flushed like rouge, and her eyes were dazedly bright.

"..."

There was no ice in the whiskey, and it rushed into the stomach hotly, Luo Xi's vision was a little blurred.

"Why don't you ask me what I bet..."

Shen Qiang leaned on Luo Xi's shoulder with her starry eyes half open, playing with the wine glass in her hand.The rest of the crew were dancing in the arena, and no one looked towards this corner.

"What bet?"

Luo Xi asked casually absent-mindedly.

"I bet... when will you find out... that I drove them away... that it's me sitting next to you... it's me..." The strong smell of alcohol mixed with her body fragrance, in the There was a strange and strong sense of sexiness in the lively and noisy bar, "...but...hehe...you kept looking at that girl on the stage...you didn't...not notice me..."

"How much wine did you drink?"

"I drank...a lot of wine...hehe..." Shen Qiang buried her face in his shoulder, and murmured with a low laugh, "...but...I was pretending to be drunk...hehe..."

Luo Xi gently pushed her head away.

"I'll walk you home."

"...Why can't you see me... That Yin Xiamo... How long have you known her... I've been by your side... Don't you know?..." Suddenly hugging his arms tightly, Shen Qiang raised her face Staring at him, the eyes are three parts drunk and seven parts sober, "...you will never see me... is it... just like just now... you have been looking at that strange girl... and you can't see me... …Yes or no……"

"Shen Qiang..."

"Why don't you want to look at me?!..." Under the confused light, there were tears in her eyes, "... In the afternoon... I overheard your conversation with her outside the lounge!!... ...Hehe...hehe...I eavesdropped on purpose..."

Luo Xi's body stiffened immediately!

"...break up with her...if she hurts you like that...if she makes you unhappy..."

"We won't break up."

In the sea-blue sofa and long armchair, there is blurred and changing dim light.Luo Xi's breath became icy cold, he tried to separate her hand from his arm, but she held him tightly and shouted stubbornly:
"Why?! I met you first, I... fell in love with you first... I told you a long time ago... Did you really think I was joking then?..."

"so what?!"

Luo Xi suddenly became angry, and there was a cruel chill in her voice: "The length of time we have known each other has nothing to do with the depth of our relationship!"

It was a thorn in his heart...

He suddenly understood what he was afraid of, and why he uncontrollably said those hurtful words to Xia Mo in the afternoon.

It's not that he doesn't trust her, it's just—

The person she met first...

It's Ou Chen...

Before knowing him four years, she belonged to Ou Chen.

Does she really have no feelings for Ou Chen?He still remembers the way she acted like a baby to Ou Chen under the cherry blossom tree five years ago, the way she stared at Ou Chen...

And in the photo not long ago, she looked anxiously at Ou Chen on the emergency bed in the hospital...

so similar……

Didn't she even notice it herself?
However, he had already found out, so he was so frightened that he could hardly breathe...

"...Is it irrelevant?"

Shen Qiang laughed, she stared straight at him and said, "But, Yin Xiamo's affection for you is not one-tenth of what I have for you!"

"Go away!"

As if being stabbed at the deadliest point, Luo Xi yelled angrily in a low voice, and pushed her away vigorously!Shen Qiang was pushed down on the sofa, her expression was astonished and hurt, gradually, the vague wakefulness in her eyes gradually dissipated, revealing a stubborn coldness.She said coldly:
"Do you need me to prove it to you?"

"unnecessary."

Luo Xi replied with a cold face.But Shen Qiang, as if she didn't hear his reply at all, approached him all of a sudden, wrapped her hands around the back of his head, and pulled him closer with all her strength.Then, her lips kissed his lips heavily!
"You are crazy!"

Luo Xi was furious!Push her away immediately!Not only was he annoyed at being kissed by her forcibly, but he was also worried that if this scene was photographed by Yu Ji and she would see it!Bars have always been a place where entertainment journalists are used to lurking, especially the famous foam bar.

"This is my proof. Are you worried that you will be photographed by Yuji? I am not afraid! I don't care what Yuji will write. Even if it says that I chase you back without shame, it doesn't matter. I will give up everything for you. !"

Shen Qiang smiled proudly, looked directly at him and said:
"Can she do it?! You have always come forward to save her again and again. You don't care if there will be negative scandals, and you don't care if your reputation and popularity will be affected. But, what has she done for you? She She will only step on you to climb up step by step! What has she done for you? At most, she came to visit the class to cook something to eat, and she even refused to stand up firmly and said that she would not accept the movie "The Prosperity of the World" with you. "Golden Dance" on stage!"

Listening and listening, Luo Xi's face was pale, her eyes were as deep as black holes, every word she said stabbed him heavily, and the pain made his mind go blank like a white mist.Shen Qiang looked at him with heartache, felt pity for him and felt sorry for herself, she leaned over gently, and kissed him again...

same night.

Yin Xiamo sat in the ward in a daze.

She ignored Yin Cheng's various excuses and insisted on accompanying him to the hospital.In fact, the more Xiaocheng tried to delay and dissuade her, the more uneasy she felt.Xiao Cheng had known the doctor on duty that night when she was hospitalized five years ago. When the doctor heard her say that Xiao Cheng had a low fever and was not in good spirits, he became nervous and called several doctors who were resting together. Come for a consultation.Then, Dr. Zheng, who was in his 50s, rushed over from home.

Although Dr. Zheng and other doctors knew Xiao Cheng very well, they ignored Xiao Cheng's understatement when describing his physical condition, and urgently arranged for him to undergo a series of examinations.Looking at some of the test results that have come out, Dr. Zheng has a solemn expression, and tells Yin Xiamo that Yin Cheng must be hospitalized immediately for treatment.

"Sister, you go home."

Yin Cheng was lying on the hospital bed, his smile was as gentle as ever, his long eyelashes were as soft as angel wings, and the liquid in the hanging bottle dripped into the back of his hand.

Yin Xiamo's chest tightened.

Suddenly, Xiao Cheng's chin became thinner and sharper, and his lips were a little transparent.She always thought that it was normal for Xiao Cheng to have some changes in his appearance because he had grown up.Moreover, Xiaocheng was fine when he ate with her, and his appetite didn't decrease, so she thought his condition was well under control...

Is it...

She secretly panicked.

Is she wrong?Did she overlook something?
"Sister, you know that doctors like to make a fuss. I just had a cold and a fever a few days ago, but my body is very good, and I can live to be 80 years old." Yin Cheng smiled softly and held her hand, " Don't worry, sister, it's really fine."

Yin Xiamo adjusted her breathing, squatted beside his hospital bed, shook his hand back, and said:
"Sleep well, you won't have a fever when you wake up, your illness will be cured, and my sister won't worry, okay?"

"Okay." Yin Cheng nodded, "Sister, you still have an announcement tomorrow, go home first. When my fever subsides tomorrow, I will go back by myself."

"I've pushed the announcement down."

When she called Jane to reject those announcements, Jane said in a panic that she was crazy, but when she knew it was because she had to take care of Xiaocheng, Jane's attitude immediately turned around 180 degrees, allowing her to stay at the hospital with peace of mind, and not to do anything outside. Don't worry, she will do it to the death!
"sister……"

She shook his hand and said dotingly: "I will reject all the announcements for the next three days, and I will never leave your side even if you are discharged from the hospital. Even if you are discharged from the hospital, I will take good care of you at home for a few days, doing what you like Something to eat, okay?"

"No need!" Yin Cheng anxiously wanted to get up, "I can just stay in the hospital by myself."

"I have decided."

Yin Xiamo's voice was soft but she couldn't say anything more.

She put his hand into the thin quilt, gently tucked the quilt under his chin, and got up to adjust the speed of the infusion.Yin Cheng wanted to try to dissuade her again, but seeing her stubborn expression, he finally said nothing.

The night was very quiet.

The drips flowed quietly into the back of Yin Cheng's hand, he seemed to be asleep, his breathing was even, and his voice was very soft, as if it would stop at any moment.

Yin Xiamo stared blankly at Xiao Cheng.

She knew that there must be something wrong, otherwise Xiaocheng would not try so hard to hide it from her, otherwise the expressions of the doctors would not be so serious...

Darkness of night.

Her body suddenly shivered with cold.

After a long time, she silently shook her head again, no, God will not be so unfair, she has never given Xiaocheng anything, how can she hurt Xiaocheng again.

Will not……

She closed her eyes with a pale complexion, her chest seemed to be pressed down by a huge rock weighing tens of thousands of catties, and she couldn't breathe heavily...
