The precursor to the coming of early autumn is that the sky is getting darker and earlier.

When Chi Yun walked out of the Public Security Bureau, it was clearly not yet six o'clock, the sky had already turned a grayish blue, and the neon street lights on both sides of the street lit up one after another, replacing the afterglow to illuminate the sycamore leaves on the ground .

Ye Wangning fell half a step behind Chi Yun, never being side by side with him, they kept silent tacitly, as if this would make a short distance longer.

"I'm going back," Chi Yun finally stopped, and was the first to break the silence, "What about you?"

Ye Wangning also stopped. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then, goodbye."

"What about you?" Chi Yun repeated persistently.

Ye Wangning didn't show that hesitant expression again, and replied with a normal face: "I'm going back too."

"Where are you going?" Chi Yun didn't seem to just ask casually, he turned to face Ye Wangning and said, "I heard from them that you haven't gone to class since last week, so you probably haven't gone back to the dormitory either." Okay, are you going to take a break from school?"

On the surface, Chi Yun asked ordinary questions, but he was not at peace in his heart.

It's not so much that he didn't believe that Ye Wangning would drop out of school, but rather that he didn't believe that Ye Wangning would drop out of school because of the breakup, and the answer that made him nervous because of this seemed to be about to come out.

"...No," Ye Wangning didn't ask who "they" were, as if he had expected it a long time ago, "They talked nonsense, I asked for leave for a few days."

Chi Yun didn't speak, he was staring at the band-aid that appeared out of thin air on Ye Wangning's chin, perhaps because Ye Wangning kept his head down, now that he raised his face, Chi Yun noticed the presence Not strong transparent bandages.

But the crimson bloodstains faintly showing under the band-aid, which didn't have a strong sense of presence, showed his sense of existence with teeth and claws.

Chi Yun was in a trance for too long, Ye Wangning obviously couldn't guess his mental activities, just thought that he didn't believe the words, and called him in a panic: "Brother?"

"Then what about your father, your brother, and your family they said?" Chi Yun finally came back to his senses, and he said, "Is it also nonsense?"

Ye Wangning was silent for a moment, and replied: "No."

"Even if I'm an ex-boyfriend, am I a bit of a failure?" Chi Yun smiled, there was no irony in this smile, but more helplessness, "I have to hear about you from outsiders." .”

"I just don't want you to think that way." Ye Wangning's tone suddenly became more urgent.

He said stubbornly: "I don't want you to take care of my emotions."

Chi Yun took a deep breath and said, "Let's get rid of this first, let's talk about today, how did you know I was cheated, and you came to call the police?"

"Don't lie to me again," he added.

The sky was getting darker, Ye Wangning was silent for a few seconds, the neon light was dimly yellow, and when he raised his eyes, even the light and shadow stained on the bridge of his eyebrows and nose seemed pale.

"I've looked at your phone," Ye Wangning said, "about two or three times. Once you met Xu Shengze and got drunk. I wanted to see your chat records, but I found it by accident."

This answer was unexpected, but Chi Yun wasn't surprised, he just couldn't figure out what Ye Wangning was thinking.

"Why didn't you tell me then?" Chi Yun was puzzled, "If you told me, I could still..."

The rest of the words were stuck in half, Chi Yun struggled for a moment, and felt that there was nothing to do, at most, it was the remorse of falling into the same pit from the beginning to the end, until he found out that he fell into two pits, and nothing could be changed.

The problem between him and Ye Wangning was never just about 10 yuan.

"Very childish, right?" Ye Wangning said to himself, "I also don't understand what I was thinking at the time, maybe it was because I was secretly happy, which created the illusion that you would like me."

Chi Yun keenly captured the word: "Illusion?"

There was no expression on Ye Wangning's face, he nodded slightly, and repeated mechanically: "Illusion."

Chi Yun couldn't lose his temper at all, he read these two words over and over a dozen times in his heart, and said angrily and funnyly: "Although I don't know how you misunderstood, but Yu Weiran and I are just friends .”

"I don't have an ex-boyfriend."

Ye Wangning blinked his eyes. His eyes were the most beautiful. When he blinked, it was easy to have an innocent and fragile look.

"Now I know," Ye Wangning whispered, "so I regret it."

Chi Yun stared at him for a while, wanting to say something cruelly, but couldn't say anything, so she finally forced herself to look away and asked, "What do you regret?"

"I regret lying to you," Ye Wangning replied. The answer was standard and general, making Chi Yun suspect that he had even been waiting for himself to ask this question. "I regret what I said to your friends, because I wanted to catch you too much." do everything."

He lowered his eyes: "I regret not telling you earlier, I have liked you since a long time ago."

Chi Yun raised his head, his heart rate was increasing at an unbelievable speed, he opened his mouth, wanting to ask the key point, but his mind was dizzy, and finally he only asked one sentence: "How long?"

"Longer than you imagined." Ye Wangning replied softly.

"If you want to listen, I can tell you all slowly," Ye Wangning said slowly, looking at Chi Yun, as if he didn't want to miss every second, "I told my mother about our affairs, Although it is not possible now, I will definitely take you to see her."

Chi Yun was stunned for a few seconds, then subconsciously asked: "But isn't your family..."

Ye Wangning was not surprised. Chi Yun knew that he said "um", and his expression gradually became cold: "As for Ye Zhengqing, you can treat him as dead."

"..." Chi Yun was dumb, he still hadn't turned the corner, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Ye Wangning.

"I'm sorry," Ye Wangning looked at Chi Yun, thinking of something else, the expression on his face softened, "I didn't mean that."

what do you mean?Chi Yun could no longer keep up with his thinking.

But Ye Wangning continued: "It's not that I don't want you to see him, but I just don't think it's necessary. I never thought he was my father. Whether it's him or my mother, they have always regarded me as a pawn .”

"Don't make yourself so pitiful." Chi Yun blurted out subconsciously, he wanted to say that they are your parents after all, but when he saw the wound on Ye Wangning's chin, he seemed to suddenly realize something and couldn't say it out .

"I'm not pitiful." Ye Wangning didn't seem to see Chi Yun's dignified expression, he pretended to smile relaxedly, "Brother, as long as you still like me a little bit, I'm not pitiful."

Chi Yun forgot what he was going to say, he raised his face in a daze, and looked at Ye Wangning.

Ye Wangning's eyes were red, as if he was looking forward to the answer, but also as if he was afraid of the answer.

After a moment of silence, Chi Yun gave the answer: "I can't do it."

The light in Ye Wangning's eyes went out, and he stared at Chi Yun with that kind of inexplicable eyes, which almost broke Chi Yun's heart.

"I can't do it." Chi Yun whispered again.

"I love you a lot."
