"It's a woman who's pursuing Valan."
Han Zhan's observation skills were very good. He could tell at a glance that the girl named Nan Yanyan was pursuing Arang. Han Zhan ate the last bite of beef roll and asked Song Ci: "What time did you go to bed last night?"
"About two o'clock."
But when Han Zhan came back, it was just past twelve o'clock.
Han Zhan suddenly stood up and walked outside. He came to the swimming pool. Arang was skating on the frozen pool, and the two little guys were also crawling on the ice.
Han Zhan said "Hey" to Arang.
Arang turned around and saw Han Zhan. He thought Han Zhan was here to call him to eat, so he said, "I'm not hungry. I don't want to eat breakfast." He ate too much last night.
Han Zhan squatted down and asked him, "You didn't come back until after 2 o'clock last night?"
"Um."
"What did you do?"
Valan responded honestly: "Racing and watching fireworks."
"Watching fireworks? With whom?" He saw Valan's eyes wandering and evasive, and immediately understood everything. "You went racing with that woman last night, and also watched the fireworks?"
"Um."
Han Zhan still felt strange. "Why are you setting off fireworks for no reason? Could it be..." He put on an ambiguous smile and asked Arrang, "Did she confess to you?"
Han Zhan was like an old mother questioning her daughter's love life.
Argen: "I guess so."
"What do you mean by considered?"
Arang threw the snowball in his hand to Han Zhan's feet. Han Zhan picked up the snowball and hit Arang on the neck.
Valan quickly dodged the snowballs thrown at him and then said, "She likes me. I told her that if she wins the race, I will be her boyfriend. If she loses, she is not allowed to like me anymore..."
"In the end, you lost." Han Zhan said with certainty.
Valan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so sure?"
Han Zhan: "If she loses, she won't set off fireworks."
Valan: "Yes. She won."
"Oh my god." Han Zhan's expression was a little excited and gossipy. "Great, Arang, you've finally found your way out of being single. Congratulations."
Argen couldn't understand Han Zhan's happiness at all. He said, "I originally wanted to reject her and let her give up, but I didn't expect her driving skills to be worse than a professional racing driver."
It was Valanciunas's carelessness and underestimation of the enemy that caused him to escape alone.
"Don't worry about the process, I only care about the result." Han Zhan narrowed his eyes at Arjan and pointedly pointed out, "You still have feelings for her, right? If you really don't like her, you should just reject her directly. Why bother with a racing bet?"
There are always variables in any bet. Valgen was still expecting those variables to happen, so he made such a bet.
He is afraid of touching love, but he also hopes for love in his heart, so he is so conflicted.
After hearing what Han Zhan said, Arang became dazed and didn't even notice that Miaomiao threw a snowball at his foot.
Seeing that Arang had not yet realized his own heart, Han Zhan carried Han Miao and Han Jun back to the house, leaving Arang alone on the ice to think about life.
Song Ci quickly took off the children's down jackets, changed them into warm coats, and carried them to the fireplace to warm themselves by the fire.
Han Zhan had to go to work. Before leaving, he asked Song Ci, "Cibao, will you come to work with me?"
Song Ci refused, "I won't disturb you from working."
Han Zhan left on his own.
Not long after he left, Valan came to the fireplace. He sat cross-legged on the wooden floor, looked up at Song Ci, and said to her, "Song Ci, I have a girlfriend."
Song Ci was a little surprised, "When did it happen?"
"Six hours ago."
Song Ci showed the same gossipy and excited look as Han Zhan had before. "Who is it? Which family's daughter? Do I know her? Is she pretty?"
Argen: "Better looking than you."
Song Ci didn't believe this. "In Wangdong City, there are really few girls who are prettier than me. If there were, they wouldn't fall for a stingy guy like you."
Arjan snorted, "She's really prettier than you."
Song Ci: "How pitiful! You are so young, how could you be blind?"
"Forget it if you don't believe me."
Arrang stared at the flames, silent, but neither did he leave. Song Ci touched Han Miao and Han Jun's hands, finding them warm, and allowed them to have breakfast.
The two little guys skipped away, and Song Ci looked at Arang lying on the ground and asked him, "Do you want to say something?" If Arang had nothing to say to her, there was no way he would sit here and warm himself by the fire.
Valang raised his head and looked at Song Ci hesitantly, wanting to say something.
Song Ci raised an eyebrow, "What do you want to say?"
Valan lowered his head again and refused to speak.
Next to Song Ci's sofa was a bamboo basket with a ball of yarn and knitting needles in it. With great patience, she picked up the needles and began to knit a sweater.
In the past two years, Song Ci has not had time to knit a sweater for Han Zhan, so he always hangs around wearing that panda sweater. Song Ci decided to knit another one for Han Zhan.
The sweater pattern had already been laid out, so the knitting was very efficient. Soon, a section of the sleeve was knitted. At this time, Valan suddenly said, "I was awakened by a nightmare this morning."
Song Ci didn't stop moving her hands. "What kind of nightmare?"
Valan covered his cheeks with his hands and said with lingering fear: "I dreamed that someone fell from the roof of a building in front of me. I walked closer and took a closer look, and found that the person was my girlfriend..."
"I also dreamed of Edward. He was covered in blood and holes, and he told me sinisterly that he would not let me go..."
Valan's tone was filled with pain, "Song Ci, I feel so confused and scared." Even though Edward is dead, the fear that Edward created in Valan's heart will never go away in this lifetime.
Feeling Valanci's pain and plea for help, Song Ci finally put down the sweater in her hand.
She lowered her eyes to look at Valan, but couldn't help herself and raised her hand to touch Valan's short golden hair. "Edward is dead. He died in the tsunami, and his body was eaten clean by the fish in the ocean long ago. The Edward who appeared in your dream was just the fear in your heart."
"It was Sophie who jumped to her death, not your girlfriend. Everything was caused by your inner demons."
Arjan understood this truth, but inner demons were not something that could be eliminated simply by clearing them away. Arjan sighed, "Now I finally understand how Cecilio felt when he took the initiative to send Su Huanyan away."
That is love so deep that one dares not touch.
