Girlfriends

That night, the envisioned meal for the four of them was not completed after all.

After Ye Xiaohan made it clear with a rare indifference and firm attitude that "I'm really not interested, I'm not interested in being a light bulb, and I'm not interested in seeing one more person", the atmosphere inevitably became a little subtle.

Lu Fan, who has always been extremely considerate and thoughtful, quickly realized that he had been a little reckless, and immediately felt a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I didn't think twice."

Ye Xiaohan shook her head, trying to smile, but it was obviously a bit perfunctory, "It's okay, it's getting late, you go to eat."

Zong Ying didn't speak yet, but Lu Fan probably saw that her complexion was not good, so he quickly answered, "Let's go together", after thinking for a while, he said, "Otherwise, Ye Zi and Xiaoying should go together, we just made an appointment with Zhong You know that guy, just go have some drinks with him."

Xiaoying...

Ye Xiaohan laughed again, this time, her smile was not perfunctory, it was completely brought from the corner of her lips into her eyes, however, for some reason, it made people feel uncomfortable, "No need Please, I'll go back first."

Lu Fan wanted to call Ye Xiaohan who had turned around to leave, but Zong Ying stopped him first.

Facing Lu Fan's suspicious gaze, Zong Ying didn't seem to want to explain, "It's okay, let's go there, didn't you still have an appointment with Zhong Qing?"

Although he couldn't figure out what she was thinking, Lu Fan still chose to be kind, "Well, I'll send him the address later."

So the three of them ate dinner together. To be exact, Zhong Qing arrived in a hurry when both Zong Ying and Lu Fan had eaten halfway.

As soon as he saw them, Zhong Qing couldn't help laughing and said, "Although I have already received a text message from Lu Fan on the way, but to be honest, I'm really disappointed to see that there are only two of you."

Lu Fan looked at him, then at Zong Ying, and adjusted his words, "Student Ye Zi seems to be in a bad mood today?"

Zong Ying didn't answer him.She just raised her head and looked at Zhong Qing fixedly, "Zhong Qing, are you going to chase my little Ye Zi?"

Her voice was soft.

Her gaze is dark.

she looks like...

It was another side that neither Lu Fan nor Zhong Qing had ever seen.

After a long time, Zhong Qing laughed again, "Yes, I think, I like classmate Ye Zi, so... I wonder if I have this honor?"

Zong Ying looked at Zhong Qing who was sitting opposite her, and felt that the time and space of the past and present life were all distorted together suddenly.

The person in front of him, with a familiar smile and a very familiar tone, said, "I think, I like classmate Ye Zi".

Zong Ying felt in a daze that this was not a confession to Xiao Yezi, but an answer to herself, a kind of finalization of the past and the past.

She felt a little tired, but she couldn't help but think, perhaps, this is the normal trajectory.

And I have already accepted this fact in my heart, haven't I?

The corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly, but he wasn't sure if it was a smile or not.

She thought that she had cultivated enough indifference and toughness, but at this moment, she still had the urge to run away from everything regardless.

No, it's not that she wants to "escape everything", the current her simply wants to "break everything".

Lu Fan was the first to realize that something was wrong with her, "What's wrong, your face suddenly looks so ugly, is it uncomfortable?"

Only then did Zong Ying get out of the fugue state.

What was she thinking just now?

Yes, the past is gone.

All obsessions should be put aside.

After all, she is still a free and easy person, right?

only……

This time, Zong Ying was sure that she was indeed smiling, "It's nothing...just thinking, Zhong Qing, my little Ye Zi is hard to chase."

That night, the three of them drank a whole bottle of sake.

Zong Ying, who boasted that she would never get drunk after a thousand cups, was a little unsteady in the end.

Lu Fan sent her downstairs, and wanted to call Ye Xiaohan to pick her up, but she stopped her.

What was rejected at the same time was Lu Fan's kindness to take a step back and send her upstairs.

Zong Ying walked into the corridor and slowly walked up the stairs.

Her body was shaking slightly, but she knew that she was not drunk, and her mind was even clearer than usual.

The long staircase seems to have no end in sight, and the time seems to be stretched along with it.

Zong Ying felt that she had been away for a long, long time... long enough for her to gradually start to understand something.

For example, she figured it out, she really didn't have the slightest, even ambiguous, affection for Lu Fan, just like...the same as she had for Zhong Qing in her previous life...

The difference is that in the previous life, because of the initiative of the other party, she chose to be with him in such a muddled manner. Now that she thinks about it, she is irresponsible to both of them, so in this life, she will not make the same mistake again.

For another example, if she has figured it out, she should admit that, no matter in the previous life or in this life, when she sees or thinks that Xiao Yezi will be with Zhong Qing, the discomfort and caring feeling in her heart are more, in fact, Just because of the little leaves...

and so……

What if that person is not Zhong Qing?

What if the person who finally stood beside Xiao Yezi was not Zhong Qing?

How would she feel if this "if" came true?

Zong Ying thought of this question for the first time, and asked herself this question seriously for the first time.

She vaguely had an answer, and also had a vague premonition that this answer would bring about some changes.

A sea change.

Finally at the gate, Zong Ying took out the key, and opened the door after trying several times with unsteady hands.

As expected, the living room was dark, but the difference was that there was a slight glimmer of light coming from the direction of the bedroom.

Zong Ying took out her phone to check the time, and it was almost eleven o'clock.

She wasn't sure if Ye Xiaohan was asleep, so she walked over and opened the door lightly.

The small lamp at the bedside was on, but Ye Xiaohan was already asleep. The laptop was placed by her hand, and it was not turned off, and it automatically entered the screen saver mode.

Zong Ying gently moved the position of the pillow for her, and took away the notebook by the way, intending to put it aside.

I accidentally touched the touchpad, so it quickly switched to the working state.

The screen was clean, except for a chat window of the Penguin family.

Zong Ying didn't intend to spy on it, but just with a casual glance, she saw that the other owner of the chat window, nicknamed "Taozi", probably was Tao Ran, that cheerful and bright girl.

Thinking of how she and Xiao Yezi would look each time they met... Zong Ying couldn't help but glance at the screen again.

This time, she saw a line of words, a line of words sent by Ye Xiaohan:

"Taozi, I really don't know how long I can last..."

The author has something to say:

Both of them need to have some changes or epiphanies, and they are about to watch the clouds and see the bright moon~
