Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Brothers and sisters are not siblings, and they cannot be ambiguous...
The next morning, Song Yazhi set off early and went to the Lin family with Song Fanggang's family. Song Zhihan did not go. She was not ready to face them. Besides, she would have to explain her relationship with the Song family and the Lin family when they met. The thought of it made her feel overwhelmed.
Song Zhihan ran away.
After getting up reluctantly, I went to find Qu Yixing and the others. Li Daizhen and her husband had just returned from their trip, so it was just right for the four of us to get together and play mahjong.
Qu Yixing had a mahjong machine at home, so we simply didn't go outside and started playing in his basement.
Four people sit at a table, playing cards is secondary, chatting is the main thing.
Qu Yixing threw out a red middle and looked worried. "This year's New Year is so hard. My mom has already told me in advance that my second, third, and third aunts have arranged a lot of girls for me to go on blind dates."
Li Daizhen threw a Nanfeng: "Song Zhihan, what did you mean by the message you sent me yesterday?"
Last night, she received only a brief message.
【Daizhen, I'm done.】
"Oh, please don't laugh at me when I tell you this. I was mistaken. I thought I was taken away by mistake, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding. Shanshan was the child who was taken away by mistake from Lin Mo." Song Zhihan touched a piece of cake and threw it away, with a hint of melancholy in his words.
"What?"
"What!"
These two sounds came from Li Daizhen and Qu Yixing at the same time.
"Why does Lin Mo's name appear here?"
"Then you have nothing to do with Lin Jie."
She didn't even bother playing cards anymore. Li Daizhen frantically questioned her about the entire situation. Qu Yixing was still confused. "No, what does that mean? I don't understand a thing. Lin Jie and Lin Mo, how are these two connected? Hey, why do these names sound so smooth..."
Li Daizhen pushed him away without even looking up and moved closer to Song Zhihan: "So what do you think now, baby?"
Qu Yixing grabbed at the air and said, "Isn't there anyone who can pay attention to me?"
Cheng Rang gave him a good hand, steadying him, and smiled faintly: "I'll explain to you."
"I don't know either. We haven't been in touch since yesterday. Do you think Lin Jie will be angry? I've caused such a big mess. He must think I'm stupid."
Song Zhihan held his chin up with a worried look on his face, and glanced down at the screen of his mobile phone, which didn't vibrate at all.
"No, Lin Jie won't be angry with you. At most, he will feel helpless." Li Daizhen patted her chest, looking very confident.
Song Zhihan was unsure. From what had happened before, it seemed that Lin Jie was deeply poisoned by this brother-sister relationship. He was in pain, but now he knew that all this pain was caused by an incredible misunderstanding. Could he really remain calm?
On the other side, Qu Yixing finally learned the whole story from Cheng Rang.
He first roared, "You isolated me. How could I not know about such a big thing? I hate you!" Then he laughed at Song Zhihan's train of thought, "You are so stupid, Song Zhihan. You can even get this wrong. Don't tell others that we are friends. I won't embarrass you." Finally, his face was full of melancholy, "In that case, Lin Mo is Aunt Song's biological niece. It seems that I have no chance..."
Song Zhihan glared at him, "You're crazy. If you really like Lin Mo, you have to change. Which decent girl would be with you if you act like a dandy and wanton all day?"
In the past, it was just a warning from a friend, but now it is different. She is Lin Mo's cousin. To deal with this criminal who has bad intentions towards her sister, she will scan him repeatedly with a knife.
Qu Yixing frowned deeply, glanced at her, and said, "Were you talking about Lin Jie just now? Song Zhihan, you don't still like him, do you?"
Song Zhihan avoided him, turned sideways and ignored him.
Qu Yixing became excited and kept asking her questions like a follower.
"Yes, yes, yes, do you still like him?"
He is really annoying. Song Zhihan was angry and pushed him away forcefully, yelling, "Yes, I just like him, so what!"
After getting the answer, Qu Yixing sat back in his seat contentedly. He picked up his cold drink, blew away the non-existent heat, and said in a pretentious manner, "Oh, he likes you too."
Song Zhihan didn't bother to pay attention to him and asked perfunctorily: "How do you know?"
She didn't expect to get an answer, but if Qu Yixing hadn't been prepared, how could he pretend to be so powerful in front of her?
He took a sip of water and said a few words.
"The night before Li Daizhen's wedding."
"You're drunk."
"It was Lin Jie who took you."
Having said this, everyone's attention was drawn to him, and three pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.
But Qu Yixing stopped talking. He just drank water and didn't say anything.
Li Dai was so anxious that she slapped him and glared at him, asking, "Are you constipated?"
Qu Yixing rolled his eyes at her and looked at Song Zhihan with a smile: "Do you want to know?"
As a friend of many years, Song Zhihan knew what he was going to say the moment he opened his mouth. But the unknown answer made her feel uneasy.
"What are the conditions? Tell me."
With her words, Qu Yixing felt relieved and bold: "It's very simple, help me make an appointment with Lin Mo."
Song Zhihan refused without a second thought: "Impossible."
If this was the condition, she would rather ask Lin Jie herself, or just pretend she didn't know.
Qu Yixing snorted, but was not too discouraged. He still revealed what happened that day.
"You were drunk and insisted on calling Lin Jie. Then he came and personally took you back to the hotel. As for what happened between you two, I have no idea. Let me remind you, the senior came in a hurry and even put his slippers on the wrong way around. From a man's perspective, he definitely wanted to pick you up."
Song Zhihan sat there in a daze, thinking carefully about what happened that day.
She often blacks out after drinking, but if she thinks back carefully, she will have a vague impression of what happened.
That day... first Qu Yixing pulled her out of the bar, then Lin Jie took her back to the hotel, and then at the door, she cursed Lin Jie. She forgot what she said exactly, but his face looked very ugly, so it must not be anything nice.
And then...
The fragments in her mind suddenly came together and she remembered.
Lin Jie kissed her at the door of the room. It was not just a light kiss, but a deep kiss that was intimate and entangled with each other. Her face even turned red as she lay in his arms and gasped for breath. Transparent saliva flowed from her lips and stained Lin Jie's collar. She also used his clothes as tissues.
All of this played out in Song Zhihan's mind. His hands pinching his waist, his teeth gnashing, even his tongue entwining...
"Why is your face so red?"
Li Daizhen looked at Song Zhihan, whose face suddenly turned red all the way to the neck, and asked a strange question.
Song Zhihan stuttered back to his senses, pressed his cheeks to cover his face, and fanned himself with his hands: "No, I'm... hot, hot."
Qu Yixing laughed in an ambiguous manner and played with the mahjong in his hand.
Cheng Rang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. His voice was very soft, and it easily brought them back to those beautiful youthful years.
"Zhihan, actually, when we were in high school, I felt that Senior Lin liked you."
Qu Yixing raised his hand casually: "Second."
Song Zhihan lowered his head and chuckled knowingly, "I know."
Lin Jie told her this in person.
Li Dai was really puzzled: "Then why hesitate? You like him and he likes you too. Isn't that great?"
Song Zhihan shook his head and said nothing more.
That misunderstanding made her mistakenly believe that she and Lin Jie had embarked on the wrong path of infidelity between siblings. She strongly corrected it and asked Lin Jie to do the same. Apart from crossing the line on the night of the annual meeting, he had not done anything that crossed the line again. He already treated her as his sister.
But now she jumped out and said she liked Lin Jie. Would he think she was too fickle and instead feel disgusted? Or maybe Lin Jie only had brotherly feelings for her now, not love between a man and a woman, and they had missed the opportunity to fall in love. And those things no longer existed once they were missed.
No matter which one it was, it was not what Song Zhihan wanted to see. She only hated herself for being too reckless and hastily dragging Lin Jie into the pirate ship without finding out the truth of the matter. Now the two of them were forced to be neither siblings nor be ambiguous.
The card game stopped, and a few people chatted briefly. Qu Yixing stood up, holding up his phone and yelled, "It's snowing! It's snowing!"
Several people were encouraged by this and ran outside to see the snow.
It’s not snowing in Yuhang, but the weather forecast says today’s snow is something that only happens once in ten years.
Standing outside the Qu family's terrace, snowflakes drifted down in the dark night sky, fell to the ground, turned into bean-sized water droplets, and were quickly covered by another thin snowflake.
The scene was so beautiful that everyone couldn't help but stretch out their hands and let the cold snowflakes stay in their palms.
Li Daizhen shouted with joy, but soon her voice became silent. She was completely covered by Cheng Rang's tall back. The two of them were in the corner, exchanging each other's warmth.
Qu Yixing cursed loudly and stomped his feet in frustration.
Song Zhihan, looking at the snowflakes falling all over the sky, seemed to hear the sound of snow falling, and the sound came from Lin Jie.
I really want to see him.
She took out her cell phone and looked at the dark screen. She made a decision in her heart, and the moment she thought about it, the screen lit up.
Lin Jie's name was jumping on it, again and again, dancing along with Song Zhihan's beating heart.
She stretched out her cold fingers and pressed the answer button.
"Song Zhihan." His voice came from the other side of the phone, as deep as ever.
"Hmm..." Song Zhihan lowered his head, his face a little hot.
"Uncle Song and his family came to our house today and talked to us about Lin Mo and Shan Shan." Lin Jie's voice was a little hoarse, with a faint smile. It could be heard that they had a very pleasant conversation.
"I know, my mother told me." Song Zhihan responded, his eyes falling on the snowflakes that were beginning to accumulate. A thin layer covered the ground, making the sky look much brighter.
"Why don't you come?" Lin Jie suddenly asked her, a little anxiously.
"I... don't know what to do. You knew about this yesterday, why didn't you tell me? Are you angry because I made such a big mistake." Song Zhihan touched the melted snowflakes with her fingertips and felt the coldness all over her body. She still couldn't help but ask the questions that had been trapped in her heart.
"No, it happened suddenly. We have been contacting Sichuan to verify this matter. As for you, are you angry because I didn't tell you in time? That's why you didn't come."
"No, no." Song Zhihan quickly denied it, his heart beating fast.
She answered too quickly and Lin Jie didn't pick up the phone for a while. The two of them were silent across the phone. They could only hear each other's shallow breathing, mixed with electric current, intertwined together.
The snow fell heavier, and the thin snowflakes became thicker, like white and soft cotton. The traces of snowflakes falling on the ground were also getting bigger. The lights in front of the Qu family's door were also lit, shining a warm yellow color, shining on the snowflakes, like burnt marshmallows, and the air seemed to be filled with that sweetness.
"It's snowing. Do you want to meet me?"
Lin Jie suddenly spoke, and his voice clearly reached Song Zhihan's ears.
She seemed to taste cotton candy.
