Lin Zhixing looked at the man beside him in shock.
From the moment He Yanchen said, "Everyone has the right to show vulnerability," a few minutes ago, she already knew who he was.
During her and He Mingyu's last summer vacation in elementary school, Yin Ruyun planned to send them to study abroad.
He Mingyu had been looking forward to it for a long time and had also made a long plan.
Lin Zhixing knew it would cost a lot of money just by looking at it.
She resolutely refused to go.
Yin Ruyun sent her to the He family's summer resort.
The two and a half months at the Mountain Resort were the happiest time in Lin Zhixing's twenty years of living under someone else's roof.
She cleaned the house with the uncles and aunts in the villa, trimmed the garden, and picked grapes and apples in the backyard.
The aunts would make delicious desserts for her, and that was also where she learned to cook many kinds of food.
After she had been in the summer resort for more than a month, an older brother came.
In her memory, the boy was tall and thin.
The outline of the body bones is so obvious that it seems as if a layer of skin is attached to the bones.
Perhaps because they had stayed there for too long, they became a little carried away and thought the boy was some aunt's child. They treated him as their friend and even took the initiative to give him freshly picked grapes, apples and flowers.
I also took out my collection of spicy strips and wanted to share them with him.
All were rejected.
The boy was silent and refused to communicate with her.
Until one night there was lightning, thunder and heavy rain.
When Lin Zhixing was watching the rain through the French window on the first floor, he heard a roar accompanied by thunder coming from the boy's room.
She stood at the door of the boy's room for a long time before she was sure that the boy was afraid of thunder.
I could only shout, trying to drown out the thunder with my louder voice.
Lin Zhixing went back to the house and took out his small blanket, covered the two people's heads with it, and covered his ears with his hands.
She said in a loud voice, "Thank you for carrying water for me that day. The uncles and aunts all said I was capable, but sometimes there are things I can't do. That day I asked you for help, and you helped me. I feel like we are good friends. So, I think everyone has the right to be vulnerable, and it's okay to be vulnerable in front of friends."
Her voice hadn't changed at that time.
The tone is childish.
The blanket smelled of her usual shampoo, a light lavender scent.
In Lin Zhixing's memory at that time, the boy clearly did not respond at all, not even said a word, and left the next day.
She didn't know who he was or why he was here.
It was only more than ten years later that she found out the purpose of his visit to the Summer Resort.
Thinking about what Wang Xue had said before, Lin Zhixing had no doubt about this statement.
Unfortunately, their friendship is limited to the Summer Resort.
Lin Zhixing couldn't ask him what he had experienced at that time or why he thought about committing suicide.
She habitually smiled and encouraged him, "You are so outstanding, it would be a shame if you stayed there forever."
He Yanchen raised his arm and smoothed the woman's long hair that was tilted to the side of her face. "Yes, later I realized that the things that seemed so big at the time were now just insignificant things when I look back. What's more, it was someone else who caused these things."
In fact, Lin Zhixing knew all of this...
Of course she knows.
The car was still parked at the entrance of the community.
He would not take her home without her consent.
It was extremely quiet outside the car. He Yanchen said, "For what happened back then, you have to give me a chance to repay you."
The man was not being sentimental when he said this.
It seems like he is describing a very ordinary thing.
It's like borrowing something, you have to return it.
But Lin Zhixing knew that the man was giving her a way out and helping her find a reason to ask him for help.
But she... still felt that it made no sense for her to live in a man's house.
"Actually, I didn't do anything, so I don't need to be rewarded."
In Lin Zhixing's opinion, he just said it casually.
Even if the man doesn't mention it, she won't think about it anymore...
"Then I will buy you a house and find you a 24-hour bodyguard to ensure your safety." He Yanchen made another suggestion.
"No, no." Lin Zhixing hastily refused. She looked at the man seriously, "Mr. He, I really don't need your reward..."
"But I don't like owing others anything. Although we only met for a short time, you are much better than I thought. In my opinion, this may be the only time in your life when you need my help. If you miss this opportunity, I may owe you this favor for the rest of my life."
He Yanchen's tone was extremely serious when he said this.
He really thought so.
Lin Zhixing is such a hardworking and serious person, he will succeed in whatever he does in the future.
If he doesn't hold on at this time...
Then she might not need his help with anything anymore.
Lin Zhixing felt He Yanchen's persistence.
She really doesn’t have the ability to solve Shen Gang’s problem now…
The best way to save He Yanchen money is probably to live directly at his house...
If you're just staying for a few days, it shouldn't be a problem, right?
Lin Zhixing clenched his hands together and thought for a long time before agreeing, "Then I'm sorry to bother you during this time, Mr. He. I will do my best to resolve these matters and move out as soon as possible."
The car started moving with her consent.
He Yanchen turned his face to the outside of the car and looked at the street scene. "It's okay. I'm single and I don't have any plans to find a girlfriend for the time being. Apart from sleeping, I don't spend much time at home. You don't have to rush to move."
"Well, okay, thank you, Mr. He."
