The weather in New York was gloomy and it was drizzling. During the weekend, Lin Yingci returned to her apartment and worked on her group assignment. At around 9 o'clock, she took a glass of red wine to the window to get some fresh air, but saw that the black Audi A6 was still parked downstairs.

Why are you still here...

She thought it might be Lin Jingran, but it shouldn't be this car...

Without giving it any more thought, she deliberately carried a bag of garbage downstairs. It was raining outside, so she held an umbrella and stared at the window of the cab as she walked, but it was dark and she couldn't see anything.

She was walking back to the elevator when she suddenly remembered that Shen Yilin had told her before that Lin Jingran had a fight with Chen Ying with a knife because of her.

——Afterwards, Shen Yilin went to comfort Chen Ying, saying that Lin Jingran was just confused for a moment, but Chen Ying said to her, "You all insist on having a son, what's so good about a son?"

·

Since he has risked so much for her, why are people here but not brave enough to see her?

The elevator door opened, but she didn't go in. She turned around and walked towards the car again, knocking on the car window. She thought if it wasn't him, she would tell him that he couldn't park there. But when she rolled down the window, it was really that familiar face. His eyes were inexplicably evasive. His hair was shorter, with some small strands of hair on his forehead. He still had handsome eyebrows and eyes, and was wearing a gray-green jacket. He glanced at her shyly, smiled and said hello: "Hi,"

Lin Yingci nodded, and subconsciously asked, "Why are you here?"

Lin Jingran took a deep breath, looked at her again, and stammered, "I, I was just passing by."

His eyes were clear and bright, and she had forgotten how many times she had been immersed in such eyes.

She nodded again and said hesitantly: "Since you are here...would you like to go up and sit down?"

"Okay." Lin Jingran agreed immediately. On the surface, he was still calm, but he was actually very nervous. For some reason, he kept thinking about the day he met Li Jiaojiao in the garage, and how she could find Hengyuan. He was finally no longer afraid of Chen Ying, but he started to worry about other people.

It turns out that people can't do bad things.

·

He followed her into the elevator. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was somewhat silent. Lin Yingci spoke first, and asked softly with a smile on her face:

"Were you here last month as well?"

Her beautiful eyes stared at him like that, and Lin Jingran felt his heart skip a beat.

"Yeah." He retracted his gaze, not daring to look at her again.

"Come to see me?" She suddenly smiled, and Lin Jingran also smiled: "Yes."

·

He watched her enter the code to open the door, then turned around to pour him a glass of water. He sat down opposite her obediently, took the glass with both hands and drank two sips.

Lin Yingci also sat down and asked casually, "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" As she spoke, she took two sips of the red wine next to her notebook.

"You didn't know how to drink before," Lin Jingran suddenly said.

She was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "It was the past."

Lin Jingran lowered his head, looked at her gently, and blurted out: "Would you like to listen to me?"

She nodded: "You talk, I listen."

"Okay," Lin Jingran drank two more sips of water, cleared his throat and spoke again: "Let's talk about Ni Zhen first. There is really nothing between her and me."

"Yes," Lin Yingci answered him while typing without looking up.

Lin Jingran kept looking at her.

"Fei Yu gave shares to her brother Ni Yu, and now our relationship is pretty good."

"Yeah," Lin Yingci nodded again.

"Then, my mother," his voice was light but extremely gentle, "she will no longer care about our affairs."

Lin Yingci suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him.

"I wonder if there is a possibility for us to reconcile," he mustered up his courage again and met her gaze.

Lin Yingci stopped typing and looked at him. Her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to say.

Suddenly he remembered something and asked again: "Oh, you and that one." Lin Jingran searched for the name in his mind.

"Jiang Siyue, how are you guys?" he asked her deliberately.

"Not bad." Lin Yingci remained calm, while Lin Jingran's smile suddenly disappeared.

"You guys are fine, right?" he asked her.

"Yeah." She also looked at him.

"When are you planning to get married?" He no longer had a smile on his face, and his tone became a little aggressive.

"I haven't considered this step yet—"

Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of a chair moving backwards, and Lin Jingran stood up in an instant: "Since you are so kind, I will leave first."

Lin Yingci's mind went blank for a moment. She stared at her blankly and stood up: "Then... I'll take you there."

The elevator was unusually silent, and neither of them spoke until the elevator door opened - they had reached the first floor.

"I'll take you here," Lin Yingci looked at him and reminded him, "Drive safely."

Lin Jingran walked out of the elevator quickly as if in a huff, but after taking two steps he regretted it - what was wrong with him? He had finally come here and now he was inexplicably angry.

You know they are not together, why are you asking so much?

Just as the elevator door was about to close, he reached out to stop the elevator. The elevator door opened again, and Lin Yingci looked at him with red eyes.

He suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable. Without saying anything, he walked in and held her face and kissed her deeply. Lin Yingci pushed him away with force, her breath a little unstable: "What are you doing?"

"Why are you crying?" Lin Jingran asked her, still looking into her eyes, "You can't bear to leave me, right?" After saying that, he kissed her hard again. The elevator went upstairs again. Lin Yingci pushed him away again. He quietly calmed down and spoke again:

"I have met Jiang Siyue,"

Lin Yingci's eyes were a little evasive, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. She watched the elevator door open and hurried out. As she opened the door, she asked, "Then why are you asking me?"

"Why did you lie to me?" He followed her into the living room.

Lin Yingci was very confused. After closing the door, she looked at him and said, "You ask, and I will answer."

Lin Jingran suddenly moved closer to her and whispered, "Do you know that lying comes at a price?"

He hugged her waist tightly and kissed her again. Lin Yingci also hugged his neck. She did not refuse again, but responded enthusiastically...

Suddenly he picked her up and walked straight to the room. He put her on the bed and took off his coat. Lin Yingci also sat up slightly and looked at him.

"You have something to tell me, are you done?" She looked at him.

Lin Jingran also took off his last piece of clothing and moved closer to her: "We have said what we need to say, but we have not done what we need to do."

He kissed her again, taking off her coat, and suddenly he let her go, his eyes hazy, and he asked breathlessly, "Do you still love me?"

In the darkness, only the eyes of the two people were shining with the light of love.

"Yeah," she nodded - she didn't want to lie anymore.

Lin Jingran suddenly smiled as well: "I love you, too. That has never changed."

……

Afterwards, she leaned lazily in his arms, and suddenly remembered something. She turned slightly to look at him and asked, "What did you do to your mother? Why did I hear you entered the office with a knife?"

"It took me a long time to come up with this idea," he also looked at her, "Everything she did to you was no less than stabbing me with a knife. I just told her not to do it again," he paused, "otherwise I worked so hard to coax her and she would tear me apart with just a few words."

Lin Yingci couldn't help laughing and asked, "Did you apologize to her later?"

"I apologized," Lin Jingran hugged her again and let her lean on him, "Don't worry, I apologized very sincerely."

"At that time they said I was your biological sister," she asked him again, "what did you think?"

"I was going crazy thinking about it," he said, unable to help laughing, "but then I figured it out."

He leaned over and kissed her hair, and said word by word, "A sister is a sister. At worst, we can't have children."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Yingci couldn't help but look up at him: "You think so."

"Yeah, there's nothing I can do about it." He also looked at her, "Emotions are not something you can control at will."

Suddenly he remembered something and reminded: "Shangyou said you can't sleep well and drink every day."

As he spoke, he felt a little distressed. He let her rest her head on his with one hand and hugged her back with the other hand. "Drink less. It's not good for your health. Alcohol is addictive."

"I understand," Lin Yingci also hugged his neck,

……

After chatting for a while, he got up and took a shower. When he lay back on the bed, he found that Lin Yingci was still leaning sideways to look at the photo - the photo Lu Xiang had taken of him in the nightclub. He immediately snatched the phone away.

“Can I delete this photo?”

He looked at her and asked helplessly,

Lin Yingci leaned into his arms and hugged his neck, nodding slightly. He quickly hugged her, deleted the photo with one hand, and deleted the photo in the recycle bin. After putting down the phone, he hugged her with both hands and muttered, "Why do you keep looking at this photo? I don't even know this girl, and we have no connection at all later. Why are you still looking at it now?"

Lin Yingci didn't say anything.

Lin Jingran stroked her back and comforted her: "It's been so long, and I've explained it clearly, so don't think about it anymore, okay? If you're unhappy, you can scold me or hit me, but don't hold it in. Don't say anything or ask anything. If you're not happy, your body will be bad too."

Lin Yingci nodded slightly again.

"I also transferred Lu Xiang away," he suddenly became very dissatisfied and frowned, "I get angry when I see him. He is the assistant I hired myself, but he is helping my mother -"

Seeing him chattering non-stop, Lin Yingci suddenly stood up slightly and kissed him. He was a little surprised, but soon turned over and pressed her under him...

·

At 2: in the morning, he went downstairs to move the car and came back. The room was on a dim yellow table lamp, warm and romantic. Just as he lay down on the bed, Lin Yingci suddenly came over again. Lin Jingran put his arm around her back and said gently, "Are you still not asleep?"

"One more time," she looked at him with some sincerity in her eyes. Lin Jingran was a little surprised and smiled and said, "What? ...Lin Yingci,"

He paused and asked, "You murdered your husband?"

"No, forget it," she turned around and prepared to sleep, but Lin Jingran came up to her again.

"Who can't you say?" He put his arms around her waist from behind, "Hmm?"

"I was wrong," she admitted.

"So what do you think I can do? Hmm?"

"Okay, okay..."
