Even though An Ruyou didn't want to reminisce about his youth and girls, she had to admit that He Chengyu's coaxing made him feel much better.

Seeing that An Ruyou was no longer so angry, He Chengyu continued with his previous topic, "Perhaps the little girl found me too embarrassing, and did not despise the muddy water on me either. While helping me block the rain with the umbrella, she helped me up from the ground to a cleaner place.

"Even though I was still young at that time, I knew that I can't cry in front of a girl, so I tried my best to restrain the grievances I felt. I thought that after the little girl helped me up, she might leave soon, but she also took out her handkerchief and helped me wipe my tears, and also helped me clean up the mud stains on my clothes … "

An Ruyou obediently stayed in He Chengyu's embrace and didn't resist at all. She didn't even move an inch, as if she was gradually becoming entranced listening to He Chengyu's story.

As she listened to He Chengyu's words, she felt a strong sense of familiarity, as though she himself had experienced such things as well when she was young. However, because she had experienced too many things, An Ruyou could not exactly remember them, especially if they belonged to him or Qiao Ruoyou's memories.

, who was in a trance, heard He Chengyu continue to speak: "When that girl took out her handkerchief, I accidentally saw an embroidered word. When I stopped crying, the little girl asked if I had any money on me and told me to take a taxi home, but I was in a hurry and didn't bring any money or an umbrella with me. She probably saw that I was in such a sorry state, so she gave me her umbrella and took some change from her schoolbag. "

I don't remember how much money I had, but I still remember that she found a lollipop from her schoolbag and gave it to me. After sending me into the taxi, I originally wanted to let her get in with me, but she generously waved me off and ran off with her schoolbag over her head. That day, I didn't even thank her properly.

He Chengyu self-deprecatingly touched his forehead, "Now that I think about it, my performance that day was really too terrible."

An Ruyou, who had been in He Chengyu's embrace the entire time, remained silent. Suddenly, He Chengyu unknowingly clenched his hands even tighter, as if he was a drowning man grasping at straws to save his life.

He Chengyu thought that An Ruyou had only been cold and did not mind it too much. He continued: "Later on, I was unable to forget this kind girl and her young heart, so I had always wanted to find her. That day when I saw the word 'Qiao' on her handkerchief on the second floor, I guessed that it should be her surname and judging from her clothes, she should not be an ordinary family. Fortunately, there aren't many people with the surname Qiao, so I guessed that she should be one of the two daughters of Qiao Family. "

Although He Chengyu said the last sentence in a casual manner, to An Ruyou, it was like a ray of light, falling upon his heart and causing him to recall some distant memories that belonged to Qiao Ruoyou.

Before hearing He Chengyu's words, An Ruyou had always treated this small matter that she had experienced as a small interlude in her life. Although she had never forgotten about it, he had never taken it as the same matter either.

In An Ruyou's memories, she had just been brought back to Qiao Family by someone from the Qiao Family, and it wasn't long ago that she had been brought back to the Qiao Family from an orphanage.

In order to cultivate herself to become a capable assistant for Qiao Family, Qiao Family didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to send him to various types of tuition classes. At that time, Qiao Ruoyou was also very grateful to the people of Qiao Family, if not for the people of Qiao Family, she never would have thought that one day she would have the chance to enter a class where only the rich had the chance to study.

But even so, the little Qiao Ruoyou would still want to find a chance to relax, at that time when she was facing this unfamiliar city, she did not know where she should go. Therefore, when the class ended, Qiao Ruoyou would only look for an opportunity to circle around when the driver of the Qiao Family had yet to come to take him home, and also need to quickly return to the place she had previously agreed on with the driver, so that she would not be exposed.

On a rainy night, the teacher in charge of the class saw that the sky was not looking good, and was a little worried about Qiao Ruoyou's safety. He was worried that she would come home too late, so he ended the class early.

Even though it was raining outside, Qiao Ruoyou was not afraid. She held the small flower umbrella that Mother Qiao brought her in the morning and saw a place that looked like a park, with a wooden cotton plant growing bright inside. After going through the baptism of rain, the plant became even more emerald and alluring, attracting Qiao Ruoyou's attention and reminding her of the piece of cotton at the entrance of the orphanage.

After she memorized the location of the exit, she walked into the park with light steps, but she didn't expect to step into He Chengyu's entire life.

Before Qiao Ruoyou could walk to the front of the cotton tree, she saw a small figure lying on the ground amidst the heavy rain. Qiao Ruoyou thought that he would get up quickly, but he kept lying on the ground without an umbrella. It was as if she was isolated from the world.

Qiao Ruoyou quickly took a few steps forward until she was standing in front of the little person who was wearing a white shirt and back pants. She placed the umbrella over his head, helped him up, and tidied up the stains on his clothes.

She looked at the boy with bloodshot eyes. She didn't know if it was because of the pain from the fall or because of some other reason, but she felt pity for him.

With regards to this pitiful little boy, Qiao Ruoyou couldn't bear to ask too many questions about him, but she still used her remaining money and sent the boy to a taxi. Only then did she feel at ease to leave, return to the place after class, and find Qiao Family's driver.

It was precisely because Qiao Ruoyou had left in such a hurry that she did not notice the gratitude and yearning in Little He Chengyu's eyes, who was behind her.

An Ruyou never thought that after so many years, she would actually return and visit the same place again. She might even hear what she experienced when she was young from a completely different angle.

However, He Chengyu's words were not done yet, and the relationship between He Chengyu and his father was far more than just this.

He Chengyu recalled for a while, and continued: "You Zou, I'll tell you these things, I hope you won't be angry. After I'm done with you tonight, this knot in my heart, forget it, in the future, you'll be the only one left."

An Ruyou didn't know how to respond to He Chengyu's words.

"When I guessed that the girl was Qiao Family's daughter, I really wanted to go and find her. I wanted to ask her if she still remembered what happened between her and me on a rainy night in a deserted park. "However, I was still too young at that time and didn't have the ability to be independent. I didn't have any connections of my own, so I have always kept this matter in my heart, waiting for the day when I find her and tell her about it."

If it was said that An Ruyou was a little jealous just now, then right now, the jealousy in her heart was not, more so, sour. She did not expect that her unintentional action would actually have such a huge impact on He Chengyu.

And when An Ruyou heard Qiao Ruoyou's name once again, she too felt some waves in her heart. She had always thought that when she was still Qiao Ruoyou, no one had ever truly cared about her, and those familial feelings and love that she had once cared about were all lies in the end. Therefore, An Ruyou had once rejoiced that her time as Qiao Ruoyou was gone, and that he had finally left that identity.

He Chengyu was afraid that An Ruyou would not be able to move or stay in the same place for too long, so he let go of An Ruyou first and jumped down the stage to carry An Ruyou off, "You Lu, the two of us can walk while chatting, otherwise, it would be cold if we stay here forever."

If it was An Ruyou alone, she would definitely not dare to walk in such a dark park, but it would be different if He Chengyu was by her side. No matter how dark the road was, An Ruyou was willing to walk with He Chengyu.

But He Chengyu was still worried that An Ruyou would get a cold, so he took off his suit jacket and wore it on An Ruyou's body. It was just the beginning of summer, and the weather had already started to get hot, so even though it was night time, the temperature was not very low. An Ruyou did not feel cold, it was just a little cold, but it was actually very comfortable.

So, An Ruyou wanted to take off He Chengyu's jacket, but of course He Chengyu would not agree to it. He even quickly buttoned up his shirt so that An Ruyou could not reject him, "Why are you like my mother, I'm actually not cold right now."

"Just wear it. As a man, of course I'm not cold anymore. I still feel hot." After saying that, He Chengyu looked at An Ruyou who looked like a child dressed in adult clothes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

An Ruyou also lowered her head to look at herself. She saw that her hands were already wrapped around the sleeves and the hem of the suit was even up to her buttocks. An Ruyou was also a bit speechless.

Honestly speaking, with An Ruyou's height of 1.65 metres, coupled with the fact that she usually wore high heels, she could be considered decent among the girls. However, wearing it now actually made him look like a Dwarf.

An Ruyou wanted to take it off immediately, but she kept talking back, "What kind of appearance is this? If others were to see this, would I even need to put on an appearance …"

However, He Chengyu once again stopped An Ruyou from doing anything. "Be obedient, there won't be anyone here, and there won't be anyone who will recognize you, so don't worry, alright? The body is the most important thing. "

An Ruyou also felt that He Chengyu's words were reasonable, so he stopped being bashful and coy. He put on He Chengyu's large suit and walked along the road with him.

Tonight, to He Chengyu, it was just like what he had said to himself and An Ruyou, and he would treat it as a break in his past. Qiao Ruoyou had already left this world and she had also met An Ruyou.

He Chengyu just did not want this relationship to forever be known by himself. He wanted to share his past with An Ruyou, and also participate in the future.
