Yunci threw the paper towel to the side and tapped the teacup with his fingers. His voice was flat and light: "we are related by blood, you should not forget it?"
Ruan Xi Chen slowly lowered his head: "we don't have any."
Cloud words tiny a Leng: "what?"
Ruan Xi Chen took a deep breath, looked up again and said, "we are not related by blood. I was bought into Ruan's family when I was born. I knew about this a few days ago."
He pulled out a bitter smile: "do you think I'm joking? I like it as a joke, too, but it's a fact. "
Yunci frowned and saw him quietly for a while. Soon, her eyebrows stretched out again. She didn't say anything or ask anything. She didn't like to expose other people's scars.
The two fell into an inexplicable silence until the boss brought two bowls of noodles. Yunci took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Ruan Xichen first, as if he didn't hear anything.
Ruan Xi Chen Leng Leng took over, eyes show a bit of gratitude.
Yunci's reaction surprised him. If he was someone else, he would exaggerate when he heard this kind of secret thing. He was surprised and curious. He would ask questions and want to know more clearly. After knowing, he thought about which people to share with in his heart. On the surface, he comforted him falsely.
Two people quiet finish eating noodles, cloud words wiped to wipe mouth, looking at Ruan Xi Chen, once again open mouth, concise say: "but I don't like you."
More direct and ruthless answers, without any emotion or any cover up.
Ruan Xi Chen laughed and accepted frankly: "I know that when you just came to Ruan's house, my attitude towards you was very bad. It's my fault. I always regret it. Even if you hate me, I'm not surprised. In the future, I'll try my best to treat you and let you change your outlook on me."
Cloud words calm said: "I don't hate you."
"Really?" Ruan Xi Chen's eyes flashed, revealing his expectant eyes.
You're not qualified enough to make me hate you.
This sentence, cloud words did not say.
After leaving the noodle shop, it's dark. Ruan Xichen proposes to send Yun to quit school. Yun simply refuses and takes the lead in walking forward. His figure soon disappears into the night.
——
At noon, Jun duonuan asked Yun to resign from the canteen for dinner. She ordered three big chicken legs, which made the hands of the aunt in the canteen tremble even more. She strongly advised: "children, eat less, shame on waste!"
Jun duonuan grinned: "there is no waste of two words in my life dictionary!"
Cloud words holding lunch box, pocket phone rang, she took out a look, face expressionless hang up.
Since he confessed in the noodle shop, Ruan Xi Chen has become more and more attentive to her. Every day, he will call her or send a text message to ask her out for dinner. Even if he has been refused, he is not angry at all. He still perseveres. He has the attitude of boiling frogs in warm water.
Cloud words thought, the Ruan Xi Chen number pull black.
In the evening, when I went back to my bedroom, my mobile phone rang again. It was ye nianrui.
After connecting, the old man's voice with a smile came from that end: "girl, how are you doing at school?"
Cloud words will book on the table, light answer: "OK."
Ye nianrui said, "girl, I know you are busy. If you have time, you'd better come back to play chess with me."
"Good."
He suddenly coughed two more times, and his voice did not have the usual perseverance: "Alas... My body is getting worse and worse, and I don't know how many days I can play with you."
