Chapter 362 Are you trying to have a secret crush on someone with this face?

"What's the hurry?" Meng Yushu was pulled into the courtyard by his sister with a confused look on his face, and then he saw the glass bottle buried in the snow - his brother said he would bring him snow from the top of the mountain.

I didn't expect that I would actually bring it back.

Looking at the bottle of snow that looked just like the ones around it, Meng Yushu couldn't help but laugh. Her brother's sometimes nonsensical behavior was filled with love and concern.

"It seems that you are a little happier." Meng Anran looked at the smile on her brother's face with satisfaction, and sat down on the snow pile, as relaxed as if she had negotiated some big project.

Meng Yushu looked at her in surprise, his eyes seemed to ask how she knew he was in a bad mood.

Meng Anran shrugged, "This is my territory, I have spies everywhere."

Meng Yushu rolled his eyes thoughtfully, then understood instantly: "Did Yitong tell you?"

"Hmm?" Meng Anran raised her eyebrows. "Why did you think of her so quickly?"

"Because besides Ji Lan, I've only met her today." Meng Yushu sat down next to his sister, casually sticking the glass jar into the snow, and looked at her sideways: "What did Yitong tell you?"

"She said she didn't know if she said something wrong, but she felt you were in a bad mood when you left." Meng Anran spoke frankly, nudging her brother with her shoulder and smiling meaningfully, "Brother, I didn't realize you could hide your worries, didn't you?"

Usually, Meng Yushu always looks calm and composed, as if his mind is out of touch with the world. I thought he was really focused on filming and not bothered by other things.

He is worthy of being the best actor, he actually hid it so deeply.

If Han Yitong hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have realized that her brother was worried.

"Tell me about it." Meng Anran scooped up a handful of snow, formed it into a ball in his palm, and threw it away boredly.

The snowball hit the ground and scattered instantly, blending into the snow, as if it had never existed.

"Hmm..." Meng Yushu dragged out his tone as if he was hesitating. After thinking for a long time, he lowered his voice and said, "This is a secret. You are not allowed to tell anyone."

The familiar opening line told her that there was gossip. Meng Anran's eyes lit up instantly, and she moved closer to her brother. "I definitely won't tell anyone, not even Qin Mu."

Meng Yushu smiled dotingly. She definitely trusted her sister's words, so she shared with her what was hidden in her heart: "I have someone I like."

After hearing just a few words, Meng Anran was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth: "Are you in love?"

"No." Meng Yushu quickly covered his sister's mouth and carefully glanced at the door. After confirming that no one inside heard it, he let go and continued, "We were in the class next door when we were in college."

Meng Anran frowned in disbelief, staring at Meng Yushu's stunning face with a complicated expression, "Brother, you're not playing a secret crush on me with this face, are you?"

Meng Yushu pursed his lips in agreement.

"Why?" Meng Anran found it difficult to understand. She felt that with Meng Yushu's personality, appearance, and family conditions, as long as she pursued him bravely, there would definitely be results.

To put it another way, even if there is no result, at least you have tried your best and there will be no regrets.

Meng Yushu didn't answer her sister's question, but calmly recounted the story of their acquaintance: "Although we were in different classes, we took acting classes together. My freshman year, I was assigned to partner with her in an improvisational assessment, playing a couple fleeing wartime. She's a great actress, and seeing her cry was so heartbreaking that I didn't even realize I was acting."

As he spoke, he laughed, as if he was recalling a good time, and those scenes seemed to be right before his eyes.

"That's when we started to cross paths. When we were forming teams for the final exam, we both chose each other without prior agreement." He lowered his eyes, suddenly looking a little more lonely. "We played husband and wife, lovers, and teenage secret crushes. But in reality, we could only remain friends."

Meng Anran could see the frustration in his expression, and her mood inevitably darkened. "You don't dare to take that step?"

"It's not that I didn't dare, it's that I couldn't." Meng Yushu smiled bitterly, "She was already engaged at the time. Every time I saw the platinum diamond ring on her hand, I warned myself to keep my distance."

Yet, he was always uncontrollably attracted to her.

"Engaged?" Meng Anran found it unbelievable. Logically speaking, a freshman is eighteen years old. Except in the business circle where marriage is used as a transaction, few people choose to get engaged as soon as they reach adulthood.

Seeing her confusion, Meng Yushu added, "Her fiancé is a singer named Wei Li. You should have heard of him."

Not only had she heard of him, Meng Anran also knew him—a wealthy second-generation prince who had to return home to inherit an oil field after failing to make a name for himself in the music industry. Wei Li's sister was also in attendance at her birthday party.

"So... the girl you like is Dai Lingling?" Meng Anran was confused.

The Dai family was the wealthiest in Diancheng, and they were family acquaintances of the Wei family. Wei Li and Dai Lingling were betrothed to each other, even before their child was born. As they grew older and became very compatible, their wedding plans went smoothly—they were set for the second half of the year, and they had already obtained their marriage certificate.

No wonder Meng Yushu and he are just friends. This is not something an outsider can interfere with at all.

"We haven't been in touch since graduation." Meng Yushu sighed softly, feeling relieved after saying these words. "I occasionally see her Moments, and she seems to be living a happy life now."

Meng Anran sighed with emotion.

It turns out that there is no such thing as a flower on the top of a mountain or being indifferent and cold. It's just that one has already had someone in his heart but cannot get the love he wants.

The person I love is already a married woman, and I can’t get her but I can’t let her go.

Meng Anran looked at the place where the snowball had just hit, but could no longer tell the exact location.

From then on, it no longer existed in the world, yet it was everywhere.

"Is this why you never take on spy films?" She glanced at her brother, and at this moment seemed to be able to empathize with him.

Meng Yushu chuckled, with a hint of worry lingering between his brows, "Perhaps, there is no better partner than her."

He turned his head and looked directly into his sister's eyes. "So, sometimes I envy you and Qin Mu. You grew up together, met, understood, and fell in love with each other. It seems that no difficulty in the world can separate you. If you can meet someone who is on the same wavelength and understands your feelings in this life, you should cherish him or her."

Meng Anran nodded obediently. She herself was still ignorant about love and could not give her brother any comfort.

Just then, the phone vibrated a series of times.

She took out her cell phone, and on the screen that lit up automatically was a letter from Lu Heng who had disappeared overnight.

[Lu Heng]: Come to Cangwu Residence.
