"Chen Zhen?"

Su Cailan looked at Chen Zhen in surprise. "What's wrong with you? Insomnia last night?" She studied Chen Zhen's face: "You look like you haven't slept all night."

"Ah."

With the camera behind his back, Chen Zhen wiped his face with his hands.

"I didn't sleep all night."

"...There is something temporarily."

"What is more important than life? Don't be fooled." Su Cailan said seriously: "Staying up late is easy to die suddenly, really."

"……Thanks for your advice."

Chen Zhen looked at her.

"Why are you alone?"

"No, my brother asked me to wait for you here. My mother hasn't been sleeping well recently, my brother took her to buy some medicine, and I'll be back in a while." Su Cailan showed her wrist and looked at her watch.

"It's almost there, the pharmacy is a 10-minute drive away."

"Auntie feeling well?"

"I seem to have something on my mind recently?" Su Cailan was also a little puzzled: "She didn't tell me. However, since my father left, my mother has the problem of not being able to sleep well from time to time."

Her expression was a little sad.

"Your father?"

"Didn't my brother tell you? My dad died in a car accident. It was a surprise, and the whole family couldn't accept it. My parents are childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship."

Su Cailan's eyes turned red immediately.

"sorry."

"fine."

At this moment, Su Cailan's cell phone rang. "Brother? Have you bought the medicine yet? We're in the main hall, the entrance elevator of the Southern Song Cultural Relics Exhibition Hall. Come quickly."

"it is good."

Su Qiyang parked the car and went there with Xin Wanwan.Seeing Chen Zhen and Su Cailan together from afar, Xin Wanwan couldn't help but say: "Your friend and Lanlan are quite a good match, they look like a husband and wife...It's a pity that you have someone."

"Um……"

Of course the siblings look alike, and as for "I have a master", even if Su Qiyang didn't hear it, he probably guessed what his sister said to his mother.

"mom."

"Hello, Auntie."

Su Qiyang immediately said: "Mom, this is my friend, you can just call him Xiao Chen."

Xin Wanwan was a little suspicious.

"My surname is Chen..."

"Yeah, auntie, is it a common surname? Probably more than half of the people in China have this surname. When I was young, I often had the same name as my classmates."

Chen Zhen made a joke at the right time.

Xin Wanwan was amused.

"Fortunately, neither of my two children have ever encountered someone with the same name."

"It's good to get the names of uncle and aunt."

"Their father took it, eh...his father does know how to name it."

"Mom, let's go, there aren't many people now, it's just right to go in, be quiet." Su Cailan saw Chen Zhen mentioning her father again, afraid that her mother would be more worried, so she quickly changed the topic.

"it is good."

The mother and daughter of the Su family walked in front - this exhibition was originally what they wanted to see more.Su Qiyang and Chen Zhen followed side by side.Su Qiyang was a little embarrassed, and glanced at Chen Zhen hesitantly.

"Didn't sleep last night?"

"Ah."

Chen Zhen's voice was a little cold, and Su Qiyang guessed that he was a little angry - he didn't know what mood he was in now, so he could only cover it up with his usual gentleness and calmness.

"too late."

He said something vaguely.

Chen Zhen looked up.

Xin Wanwan and Su Cailan slowly walked around the winding door and walked towards the silk textile exhibition hall.This kind of exhibition is divided into several large exhibition halls according to the categories of cultural relics. The silk fabric exhibition hall is separated from the gold and silver jewelry exhibition hall where they are located.

"Mr. Su."

Chen Zhen, who was taking pictures, stopped and looked at Su Qiyang steadfastly: "I'm very angry." Su Qiyang seemed to want to say something, but Chen Zhen didn't give him a chance to defend himself.

"I'm angry at what you said."

"I……"

"But I can understand your position and thoughts." Chen Zhen changed the subject, and his voice became even deeper: "I appeared like this because of Cailan's relationship, you don't trust me, and you think I have some conspiracy, using past memories and Feelings, if I were you, I might feel the same way."

He laughed self-deprecatingly again.

"After all, you didn't even think about me at the beginning."

Su Qiyang was a little embarrassed - but he can't be blamed for this, it has been five years.To be honest, they had never been together back then, and the number of times they met was very few. Most of the time, they only communicated by text messages and phone calls.

For Su Qiyang at that time, Chen Zhen's pursuit came at an inopportune time.

Subconsciously, he deliberately did not remember.

"Chen Zhen, I'm sorry, I..."

"You may not know—" Chen Zhen looked directly into Su Qiyang's eyes: "The matter of Cailan happened very suddenly, and our family had never had any hope before."

"You didn't find her?"

"After a long time, it will fade away. My parents are still very worried that my sister is no longer in this world."

Chen Zhen's expression was also a little sad: "This matter is in our family, no one wants to mention it, my parents are very painful. After knowing that Cailan was adopted by your family, my parents are eager to meet her—— Teacher Su, you study psychology, so you should be able to understand this feeling of longing and guilt."

"Um……"

Su Qiyang asked sharply, "What about you?"

Chen Zhen fiddled with the camera, was silent for a while, and then said: "A few years ago, I did an in-depth investigation report about abandoned babies looking for relatives. Most of the abandoned were girls."

Su Qiyang sighed.

Chen Zhen said: "Actually, even if they don't have that kind of experience, their mentality is understandable. No matter what reason they are abandoned by their families, as long as they are abandoned babies, most of them don't want to be involved with their original families."

Su Qiyang looked at him.

"I have a different attitude towards Cailan than my parents." Chen Zhen said seriously: "She is living a good life, has a complete life, and has a family of her own. I don't want to disturb her—this kind of life experience is not something to be happy about. But I can also understand my parents, at least subjectively, they didn’t mean it. As a parent, it’s not too much to ask for a glimpse of your own daughter, right?”

Su Qiyang pondered for a while.

"If you just want to see each other..."

Chen Zhen smiled lightly: "In my opinion, the difficulty of the problem is how to allow my parents to visit your Su family in a reasonable and reasonable manner while keeping the secret."

Su Qiyang looked at Chen Zhen in a daze.

Chen Zhen's expression became stubborn and indifferent, and there was both anger and grievance in his eyes: "I originally thought like this, but you suspect that I have ulterior motives for reminiscing about the past!"

Five years ago, he passionately pursued Su Qiyang, who was gentle and ruthless, and did not give him a single thought.

Chen Zhen didn't understand the reason.

He was proud, he was angry, he was sad, he refused to admit it - but he never forgot Su Qiyang, and he never forgot that summer afternoon, that feeling of thumping in his heart.The first time they met in front of the museum, Chen Zhen recognized Su Qiyang.

Chen Zhen even resented Su Qiyang a little bit.

Is he not good enough?

Does he not like him enough?

He clearly stated that it's not that he can't accept feelings from the same sex, so why?

Chen Zhen really didn't understand.

He couldn't even recognize Chen Zhen at first sight after five years—and Chen Zhen had missed him for so many years, but he just didn't have the courage to look for him again.

Chen Zhen is so angry.

He seriously recounted the past, but Su Qiyang seriously questioned him.

Chen Zhen was really wronged.

"you……"

Su Qiyang sighed deeply.

"I see."

When Xin Wanwan and Su Cailan joined them, the two of them talked and laughed freely as if nothing happened.Su Cailan obviously felt the embarrassing ambiguity, and she beat her chest and feet with annoyance in her heart.

She was gone in less than half an hour!

What's going on here!

"Cailan, let me take a photo of you, you look beautiful today."

"Okay."

Women's enthusiasm for taking pictures is beyond Su Qiyang's comprehension, but Chen Zhen obviously has a good insight into Su Cailan's weakness - he needs this photo.

Su Qiyang acquiesced.

After the exhibition, Su Qiyang took them to dinner.At the dinner table, Su Qiyang and Chen Zhen looked at each other from time to time, but because of the two women on the table, it was inconvenient to say a lot of things, so they could only stop talking.

The WeChat notification sounded suddenly.

Su Qiyang turned on the phone.

"Brother...the aura between you and Chen Zhen can't be more obvious! Handsome Mr. Su, wake up, hey, your kind old mother is still sitting opposite you! Are you trying to use this meal to come out of the closet? It's too dangerous, at least, let's talk about it when we go home... [cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face]"

The last row of little expressions...

Really vivid.

Su Qiyang silently put down the phone, his expression a bit indescribable.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Xin Wanwan asked strangely.

"No. It's just a joke from a friend..." Su Qiyang's mouth twitched, and he made up nonsense without changing his face.Chen Zhen, who was sitting beside him, glanced slightly.

"Is it a cold joke?"

To a certain extent, what Chen Zhen said hit the truth.

"……Um."

Su Qiyang nodded silently.

"Ha, ha, ha." This was the awkward yet polite laughter from Miss Su Cailan, the person involved in the cold joke.Miss Su's heart: Chen Zhen, MMP, you just told a cold joke!

but--

Is it really cold?
