Spring Branches

"Xiao San, do you still remember?"

The cool boy suddenly said this.

He looked at Tang Asi with burning eyes.

Tang Asi felt a chill down his spine from staring at him.

Tang Asi's first reaction was not to think that this cool boy was scolding him, but to feel a little excited and sad after hearing this name.

Her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

The cool boy said, "In Lianhu Courtyard, Jinfeng District, City C, there is a mistress named Tang Piaoliang following behind you."

Suddenly, a tear fell from Tang Asi's eyes.

She never expected that the boy in front of her was actually her childhood friend.

The two of them had a very good relationship at that time.

We are together every day.

The kind that each protects.

Tang Asi met Xiao San when he was living at his grandmother's house. They finished elementary school together, but when he was in junior high school, Tang Asi lived with his mother again and lost contact with this good friend and confidant.

When I think of those scenes from the past now, the memories are still fresh in my mind, like a surging tide.

"Did you recognize me at first sight?" Tang Asi asked in a hoarse voice.

Xiao San smiled slightly and said, "Yeah."

"Then why don't you recognize me?"

"I wasn't quite sure at the time. I wanted to get to know you after I was sure, but you looked like you really disliked me at the time, so I didn't tell you." The cool boy explained patiently.

The cool boy completely changed his appearance after confessing his relationship.

He would smile, no longer just having that cold, expressionless look on his face.

Tang Asi clearly remembered that the cool boy looked particularly good when he smiled when he was a child, and everyone in the compound thought they were a good match and that they should be arranged to be married.

After not seeing each other for many years, I didn't expect to meet you in such an occasion.

Their identities have already changed.

The two sat on the chairs in the park, looking at each other.

Tang Asi said: "You are not as handsome as before."

The cool boy smiled and said, "You are more beautiful than before."

Tang Asi asked again: "What are you doing now? Do you have a girlfriend?"

The cool boy turned his head to look at the building behind him and said, "I work in this building."

Then he looked into Tang Asi's eyes and said jokingly, "You don't have a girlfriend? I've been waiting for you."

After hearing this, Tang Asi burst out laughing and said, "You are still the same as when you were little, still so smooth-talking."

"You must have remembered it wrongly, okay? I was obviously very introverted when I was a child." After saying that, the cool boy burst into laughter.

Tang Asi also laughed.

The past is like smoke, and the scenes of their childhood bickering all came to their minds.

Tang Asi took a long breath, "I never thought that we would meet in this way after so many years."

The cool guy said: "I didn't expect that either."

Suddenly thinking of something, the cool boy turned his head to look at Tang Asi and said seriously: "Oh, by the way, I changed my name. Now it's not Ju Ran, but Shen Ran. Huo Ran Ran."

"Ah?" Tang Asi looked puzzled: "Why would you change your name?"

After hearing this, tears welled up in Shen Ran's eyes.

He suddenly raised his head.

Why is he so sad now?

Tang Asi didn't know the reason, but he still gently placed his hand on Shen Ran's shoulder, patted him twice and consoled him: "What happened? You'll feel better if you tell me."

"My mom ran away with someone, my dad was in jail, and I was adopted."

Shen Ran said lightly.

Without the sensibility just now, Shen Ran now returned to his cold and ruthless appearance.

Anyone who hears these three sentences will feel sympathy for the boy in front of them and want to hug him as if to comfort him.

But Tang Asi doesn't think so.

She said: "This is a new life, I hope you can endure the sweetness."

Shen Ran chuckled, "Why are you still so...slippery-tongued like when you were a kid?"

Tang Asi also laughed, "I just held on."

Shen Ran's face darkened again. "How have you been these years? How have you been doing?"

"It's harder than yours, right?" Tang Asi smiled bitterly.

"Are you married?" Shen Ran asked, his serious eyes staring at Tang Asi's embarrassed eyes.

After meeting again after a long separation, the first thing Tang Asi saw was the ring on her left ring finger. The diamond on the ring was very shiny and big.

Moreover, the residential complex where she lives now is the most upscale one in the entire city.

Just from these two points, Shen Ran could tell that the man Tang Asi married was, first of all, very rich.

What Shen Ran didn’t understand was that when she was a child, Tang Asi hated men the most. No one expected that she would marry a man at such a young age.

This was something Shen Ran never expected.

Tang Asi's expression was very serious: "Well, I've been married for more than half a year."

"Can you tell me your lover's name?"

"Lu Yichuan."

Shen Ran smiled, "I just happen to know this guy. He had an older brother, but it seems that he passed away."

"..."

"Do you know why his brother died?" Tang Asi temporarily chose to skip over the fact that Shen Ran said he knew Lu Yichuang. The most curious thing happened, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

She hadn't thought about Lu Yisi for a long time, and hadn't heard anyone mention Lu Yisi.

"I don't know." Shen Ran shook his head.

He really doesn't know.

I have been living in Country N for many years and have no interest in domestic affairs at all.

Moreover, the people there made him feel disgusted, so he took the initiative to block out everything about the country.

Tang Asi gave a bitter smile, "I have a big melon that will shake the world, do you want to eat it?"

"Not curious." Shen Ran said lightly.

Today's sunshine is very comfortable. It doesn't feel hot when it shines on people, but rather very warm.

Tang Asi pursed his lips and smiled, "What if this big news is about me? Don't you want to hear it?"

"About you, or about the bad?"

"bad."

“Then I won’t listen.” Shen Ran said.

Tang Asi snorted, "You are too Versailles, Shen Ran."

"Oh, my new name comes to your mind so easily." Shen Ran smiled mischievously, "You are so close to me, Lu Yichuan won't be angry, right?"

"..."

Tang Asi glared at Shen Ran, "You are still teasing me like you did when you were little, right?"

"No, no, just a joke." Shen Ran laughed.

This was the most he had laughed in recent times.

A smile is rarely seen on his face anymore.

"Then are you still going to listen?" Tang Asi's tone was a little heavy.

Shen Ran coaxed, "Listen, listen, tell me."

Tang Asi nodded, his face instantly turned sad, and said: "Lu Yisi is my first love."
