Yun Hao, who was smoking, started to cough hard when he heard Liu Jiaming's sudden question.
"Cough cough, cough cough …"
The smoke from his mouth and nose made him cry.
Liu Jiaming looked at Yun Hao in astonishment, walked up to him and patted his back a few times, and said: "Is there a need to have such a huge reaction? "Don't choke on my words before I finish them."
"No, I'm sorry!" Yun Hao calmed down with much difficulty.
He had truly been frightened by Liu Jiaming just now.
It was true that he still liked Xu Lee, there was no doubt about it. No matter what he told himself in his heart, he must put an end to this thought. No matter how much he tried to restrain the thoughts in his heart, the truth was still the truth, and it was not that easy to change it.
However, like was what he liked. He, Yun Hao, had always kept this matter buried in his heart. He never showed any expression in front of Liu Jiaming or Xu Lee, nor did he do anything to obstruct their interactions.
Everyone was well aware of this, but sometimes they could maintain their calm without revealing it.
But now, Liu Jiaming suddenly shot a ball.
"You still like Xu Lee, right?"
How was Yun Hao going to answer Liu Jiaming now?
Like it?
Yun Hao felt that he would be beaten if he said those two words in front of his fiancé.
Don't like it?
Was it necessary to tell such obvious lies?
After muttering to himself for a moment, Yun Hao said: "Sorry, I am not able to calmly choose to leave like you were back then, but I will control myself. Between you and Xu Lee, I will not disturb you."
This was the best answer the current Yun Hao could give. The meaning that he expressed was also very clear. He still liked Xu Lee, but he knew that he could no longer continue to like her.
After receiving Yun Hao's answer, Liu Jiaming laughed heartily, walked to his side, and said: "Perhaps it's because the current you, loves you even more deeply than the me from back then. So you had no choice but to leave as calmly as I did at that time. However Yun Hao, the current me will definitely not lose to you in terms of my feelings towards Xu Lee. "
"I know …"
From Liu Jiaming's everyday actions towards him, it could be seen. When they were sitting in the car, he would make Xu Lee sit at a table near the window. When they were eating, before Xu Lee had even touched her chopsticks, Liu Jiaming would have already heated them up with hot water.
These seemingly minute details, however, could all reveal the meticulous care Liu Jiaming had shown Xu Lee.
"I already got the answer I wanted from you. So, Yun Hao, I hope that you can do as you say. " Liu Jiaming stared at Yun Che, and continued: "You have always been a person that I admire greatly. I think if not for Xu Lee, the two of us would have become very good friends."
"Thank you …"
"Ah, for Xu Lee's sake, she should be almost done bathing. I'm going over. "
After Liu Jiaming finished, he left the backyard. Yun Hao was alone as he sat on a chair on top of a wooden pillar and looked at the bright moon and stars in the sky as if he was in a daze. The cigarette in his hand was already lit, and lit up occasionally under the dim shade of the trees, until it was completely burnt to the very end.
A gust of night breeze blew past, breaking the ashes of the cigarette in Yun Hao's hand. With a slightly hot temperature, it pulled Yun Hao out of his silent thoughts.
He got up from the wooden chair and was about to walk into the room, when he saw Cheng Xi who was wearing pajamas standing in the hallway, staring at him.
Wang Feng had blown her hair into a mess. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked a strand of hair behind her ear, her light clothes fluttering in the wind. Maybe because she felt a bit of coldness, Cheng Xi hugged her arms. Under the moonlight, Cheng Xi looked holy and spirited. Within her eyes, there was a trace of gentleness that could warm up a person's heart.
Looking at the current Cheng Xi, Yun Hao was actually infatuated for a moment.
However, such obsession was purely because it was a beautiful scene for anyone.
"Cheng Xi... When did you get here? " Yun Hao reacted and asked.
"Eh, I …" Cheng Xi stared at Yun Hao for a moment before replying, "Mn, I just came over."
Just a slight movement meant that Cheng Xi was lying. It was just that Yun Hao had not realised it yet.
He had already looked at Yun Hao, and had an entire cigarette's worth of time. When Liu Jiaming and Yun Hao had just finished chatting with each other, Liu Jiaming secretly informed Cheng Xi and told her to come to the inner part of the courtyard.
Liu Jiaming informed her because of the agreement between the two of them. Since their goal was the same, they had already formed an alliance to help each other.
After receiving the news, Cheng Xi who had just lied down immediately donned his pajamas, and walked out wearing his slippers. When she walked to the entrance of the courtyard, she saw Yun Hao, who was looking up at the sky, sitting there alone.
She, who had originally planned to step forward to comfort Yun Hao, stopped in his tracks.
When Yun Hao was sad and upset, he took the opportunity to go up and comfort him. Would he be a little despicable if he did this?
Thus, she stood at the other end of the corridor and silently watched as the cigarette in her hand burned to the end.
Yun Hao quickly adjusted his expression, looked at Cheng Xi and said: "What, can't you sleep and come out for a walk?"
Cheng Xi nodded and said, "Yes, I can see the stars and the moon on the web here. I saw them through the window just now, so I wanted to take a look outside."
"Haha, only the stars and the moon can be seen in the countryside." Yun Hao said casually, then suddenly asked: "Are you feeling better?"
Cheng Xi nodded, and said: "The medicine you gave me, is still very effective. It doesn't hurt anymore."
"The countryside is different from the cities. The temperature difference between day and night is still quite large." Yun Hao said: "These two days, your body isn't feeling too well again. It's best if you don't stay outside for too long."
"Yes, I know."
"Then hurry back to your room. It's getting late. Rest early." Yun Hao said.
"Mm …" Cheng Xi nodded and silently followed behind Yun Hao. The two of them walked inside the house together.
Yun Hao's room was on the left side, Cheng Xi's room was on the right, and when the two of them were at the fork in the corridor, Cheng Xi suddenly grabbed onto Yun Hao's clothes.
"Wait a minute!"
Yun Hao turned around, looked at her, and asked: "What's wrong?"
Cheng Xi took a deep breath, and suddenly rushed into Yun Hao's embrace.
At the same time, the door to the bathroom opened and Xu Lee walked out.
