Chapter 161: Fear



Jiang Li was still wearing Grandpa Su's daughter's clothes. When she woke up from bed, it was already afternoon. Due to the continuous rain, the sky was already dark.

Grandpa Su didn't care, but told Jiang Li that if she didn't mind, this place could also be her home.

Jiang Li did not answer Grandpa Su, but smiled and shook his head, thanking him solemnly.

Grandpa Su sat in the living room, listening to the Kunqu opera playing from an old player next to him.

The player is very old and there is some noise from time to time.

After greeting Grandpa Su, Jiang Li walked into the rain holding a black umbrella.

It's summer vacation now and they don't have to go to class. Next year they will graduate as a senior.

Time flies so fast, and I can't remember many things now. Jiang Li avoided the puddles at his feet and got on the bus.

Jiang Li looked towards the corner and found that there was already someone sitting there.

She was a girl wearing blue and white clothes, with short hair and headphones. Her exposed profile gave people a sharp feeling.

Jiang Li turned around and sat on the other side.

Jiang Li sat in the bus, which was shaking slowly. She looked at the girl next to her, took out her cell phone, but found that she didn't have any earphones.

Jiang Li sighed, and the bus shook and stopped. The girl he had seen earlier stood up from the back seat and got off the bus.

Jiang Li stared at the girl's back and suddenly felt a little ashamed of himself.

She felt a little uncomfortable, a familiar but indescribable feeling, like inferiority but not entirely.

If only he didn't have that past, then Jiang Li would be able to stand beside him confidently and bravely like the girl just now.

Jiang Li closed his eyes and leaned back on the car seat.

But if it weren't for that past, perhaps she wouldn't have come to this city. Perhaps fate had already secretly made a choice for her life.

…………

Jiang Li got out of the car and followed the familiar road back to their home.

Jiang Li walked up the stairs, taking each step hesitantly, as if he would run away in the next second.

Jiang Li's left thumb gently stroked her ring finger. The ring was still on her hand.

Finally, Jiang Li arrived at the door, but she found that her key seemed to be gone.

Maybe it fell at home some time ago.

Jiang Li stood by the door without saying a word, his long black hair covering his pale cheeks, leaving only the tip of his straight nose exposed.

A bit of black and white stands out clearly.

Jiang Li rolled his beautiful black eyes, thought for a long time before stretching out his finger and gently knocking on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock."

After a crisp knock on the door, Jiang Li immediately withdrew his hands and held them together again.

But she waited for a long time, but there was no movement inside.

"Woo woo."

No, she also heard Ginger's voice.

Sheng Jiang was lying on the door panel, scratching the wooden door excitedly, while Jiang Li squatted down and called Sheng Jiang's name softly through the door.

"Woof woof woof." Sheng Jiang called out happily. It hadn't smelled Jiang Li's scent for two or three days.

Jiang Li sighed, her long eyelashes drooping down her eyes. She took out her mobile phone and looked at the chat box that she had pinned on the WeChat interface, but her eyes became hesitant.

It seems that Mo Jingchun is indeed not at home, I...

“Crack.”

Jiang Li turned off the screen of his phone, put it back into his pocket, and decided to wait for a while.

Jiang Li squatted down and leaned against the door, put his hands on his shoulders, and waited silently.

Jiang Li actually didn’t know what she was waiting for, but there was a voice in her heart telling her to come here.

Maybe he was unwilling to give up, or maybe he didn't want to give up this relationship as easily as he did before.

Since Mo Jingchun now is just like himself back then, can Jiang Li also reconcile this relationship like he did back then?

"Da da da."

After not knowing how long he had been daydreaming, Jiang Li heard heavy footsteps coming from downstairs.

Jiang Li became nervous as she heard the sound getting closer. She opened her eyes wide and looked towards the stairs.

The next second, a familiar figure entered her eyes. The figure was clear and hazy, making it difficult to understand.

Mo Jingchun's breathing was heavy. He walked up the stairs, stood at the door, and took out the key from his pocket.

Mo Jingchun moved his nose slightly and smelled a fresh and elegant scent. He paused in opening the door and looked in the direction of the scent. As soon as he lowered his head, his eyes met Jiang Li's.

Mo Jingchun opened his mouth, which had been tightly closed, with a look of surprise.

However, after a brief eye contact, Jiang Li quickly looked away and stood up from the ground.

After squatting for too long, Jiang Li's eyes went dark when she suddenly stood up. She took a step back and fell backwards.

Mo Jingchun grabbed Jiang Li's arm to prevent her from falling to the ground. The latter's face was very pale, but it was precisely because of the paleness that people could not see that Jiang Li was abnormal.

With the force of Mo Jingchun's arms, Jiang Li regained his balance.

At this moment, the two of them were standing at the door, subconsciously avoiding each other's eyes. Mo Jingchun remained silent, and Jiang Li's eyes felt a little sore when he saw him for the first time.

"Mo Jingchun...you're back." Jiang Li spoke first. She had a smile on her face, but it looked very forced.

Mo Jingchun licked his dry lips and hummed.

The air fell into awkward silence again.
