Truth
The tears from Chen Xing's eyes fell on Chen Tian's shoulder, but Chen Tian's shoulder made her feel at ease.
Chen Xing said: "Brother, you are the only one I have. You are really the only one I have."
Chen Xing's eyes were red and tears kept flowing. The pain in her heart came back. She grabbed her chest and her breathing became disordered.
Chen Tian heard Chen Xing's heavy breathing in his ears. He held her shoulders with both hands and saw her hands covering her heart. He realized that she was having heart pain.
Chen Tiandao: "Chen Xing, take a deep breath, take it slow, don't get excited, control your emotions..."
Chen Tian was frightened. He supported Chen Xing while pressing the nurse's bell. He waited for the nurse to come in, examine Chen Xing, give her a quick-acting heart pill, and watched her slowly recover before leaving.
After the nurse left, Chen Xing lay flat on the hospital bed, and Chen Tian sat beside her to accompany her.
Chen Tiandao: "Don't think about it, go to sleep, you will be fine after a good sleep, I will be here to guard you."
Chen Tian sang a lullaby to Chen Xing, coaxing her to sleep like he did when she was a child, and slowly Chen Xing closed her eyes.
Chen Tian looked at the sleeping Chen Xing. Just when he was about to reach out to help her tuck the loose hair on her forehead behind her ears, he suddenly ran out of the ward, covering his mouth with his hands and slowing down his pace, for fear of disturbing Chen Xing.
Chen Tian came out of the ward and ran all the way to the bathroom. He squatted in the toilet and vomited everything he had eaten that night. In the end, all he could vomit was bitter water.
Chen Tian collapsed on the ground exhausted. He rested for a long time before getting up. Standing in front of the sink, he looked at his haggard appearance in the mirror. Chen Tian washed his hands and face. He had been holding on all day, and at this moment, the only blood color he had turned pale.
Chen Tian held the table with both hands, counting the days until he had to go to the hospital again tomorrow, but he still had to stay with Chen Xing. He really didn't want Chen Xing to be alone, but in order to spend more time with Chen Xing, he had to leave for a while.
Chen Tian felt his body becoming increasingly weak, and he realized that he seemed to be becoming a burden to Chen Xing. This was something he didn't want to happen at all. He thought he could hold on for a long time, but reality always went against his wishes and was never willing to pity him.

The next day, Chen Xing woke up later than usual. Maybe it was because Chen Tian was there last night, so she slept very peacefully. But when she woke up, she didn't see Chen Tian, but Shi Nannan instead.
Shi Nannan said: "Brother Chen Tian told me this morning that he had something to take care of. He will come to see you later."
Chen Xing asked, "Did he say what it was?"
Shi Nannan shook her head and said, "He didn't say, but it must be very urgent. But don't worry, he will definitely come back in the evening."
Shi Nannan didn't know what was going on with Chen Tian. She was just woken up by Chen Tian's phone call while she was still sleeping in the morning. It was a bit noisy on his end. Before Shi Nannan asked what was going on, Chen Tian hung up the phone.
Chen Xing didn't think much about it. She knew that Chen Tian was very busy recently, but she didn't know what he was busy with. Gao Yamei only mentioned it at the dinner table when the old lady passed away, but Chen Xing didn't listen much. She vaguely remembered that the old lady's funeral was very disharmonious. It seemed that Chen Rong went to make trouble again and demanded money. She had no idea how it was handled afterwards.
Chen Tian came out of another hospital in the morning. He looked extremely bad and his walking was not very steady. He found a place to rest for a while and regained some energy.
Then he found the contact information of Wen Yu that he had asked Shen Xuyang for in the morning on his mobile phone. From what Chen Tian heard from Chen Xing's words last night, he could only judge that it was Wen Yu.
Chen Tian had a deep impression of Wen Yu, although they had only met once and had little dealings. But that day he noticed that Wen Yu looked at Chen Xing with an abnormal look in his eyes. Moreover, when Chen Xing was in the countryside, she always mentioned Wen Yu in front of him, but on her eighteenth birthday, he was not there, which was very suspicious.
If the person in Chen Xing's heart is really Wen Yu, Chen Tian doesn't want to accept Wen Yu at all, but he can't resist Chen Xing's love for him, so he will pave the way for her.
Wen Yu had long guessed that Chen Tian would ask him out, and he was waiting. Chen Xing was still in the hospital, and he would never go to the United States at this time.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Wen Yu appeared at the place where Chen Tian had asked him to meet. It was a park with beautiful scenery. At this time, there were children running, followed by their fathers and mothers.
Wen Yu saw Chen Tian sitting on a bench by the river in front waiting for him, so he walked over and sat on the other side.
Chen Tian sat relaxedly with his back leaning against the chair, but his expression was solemn and serious.
Chen Tianxian said, "Did you see the family of three running on the grass across the way?"
Wen Yu didn't expect this to be the opening line. He just looked at the warm family of three not far away and said, "What do you want to say?"
Chen Tian's eyes were always fixed on the picture of the family of three. It was happy and beautiful. The relationship seemed very simple and the scene was very common. It was a luxury for both him and Chen Xing.
Chen Tian said calmly but affirmatively: "The person Chen Xing likes in his heart is you, right?"
Wen Yu's calm expression changed slightly. When talking to Chen Tian, it was indeed unpredictable what he would say next.
Wen Yu said: "I think so."
Wen Yu interrupted Chen Xing that day. He thought he liked him and he had always thought so in his heart, but only Chen Xing could be sure of what it was.
After hearing this, Chen Tian didn't need to ask any more questions or test anything. He was sure that the person in Chen Xing's heart was Wen Yu, but he didn't know why he made her so sad.
Chen Tian asked directly: "Do you like her?"
Wen Yu was silent. He couldn't answer. The answer should have come out of his mouth, but he no longer had the right to say that he liked her.
Chen Tian didn't hear the answer, so he asked again: "Do you like Chen Xing?"
Wen Yu still didn't answer, but just lowered his head in silence. Should he say it? Could he say it? He asked himself the answer over and over again in his heart.
Chen Tian was already a little impatient, but he still held back and asked, "I'll ask you one last time, do you like Chen Xing?"
This time, Wen Yu didn't hesitate or wait for a moment. Before Chen Tian finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Chen Tian with a firm gaze and said, "I like her."
I don’t know if it was because Chen Tian felt oppressed or because he didn’t want to deceive, so he wanted to tell him loudly that he was sincere.
Chen Tian saw the seriousness in Wen Yu's eyes and said, "I want to hear the truth."
Wen Yu said: "I like Chen Xing, I like her very much. It's not just like, but love. It's a very deep love, a love that would make me give up everything, even my life, for her."
This was the confession that Wen Yu failed to tell Chen Xing on that rainy night. It was also his true feelings. He could tell everyone, but he didn't have the courage to tell her.
Chen Tian listened to Wen Yu's affectionate words. Although Chen Xing was not there, he could see the sincerity in Wen Yu's eyes.
Chen Tian couldn't understand Chen Xing, but he could understand Wen Yu, who was also a man and deeply in love with Chen Xing.
Chen Tian treats Chen Xing as his sister, but his love for her is unreserved affection and care.
Wen Yu's feelings towards Chen Xing are different from his, but they both hope that Chen Xing can be happy.
Chen Tian turned his head and looked forward, saying, "When I first met you, I could tell you had feelings for Chen Xing, but considering your temperament and conversation, I don't think you are suitable for Chen Xing."
Wen Yu still remembers the first time he met Chen Tian. Chen Tian had a somewhat disdainful expression towards him. He still doesn't know what it was about him that made Chen Tian look down on him.
Wen Yu asked: "Can you tell me the reason?"
Chen Tian curled his lips and said, "Your family must be well-off. Judging from the way you sit and your polite tone, you are well-educated and come from a wealthy family."
"But Chen Xing and you are completely different in this respect. She's innocent and naive, unaware of the wickedness of society and the cruelty of reality. She thinks simply liking someone is enough. But as her beloved brother, I don't want her to fall into this hell in the future."
When Wen Yu heard what Chen Tian said, he finally understood why he was looked down upon by him.
Wen Yu said: "You are right, but also wrong."
Chen Tian was a little confused. He frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Wen Yu said, "Like you, I hope she can always remain pure and clear, and have hope and love for this world."
"My family background is not something I should be proud of, and it should not be the standard by which you judge me."
"I don't deny that I've had a much more comfortable life than the average person since I was a child, but that has nothing to do with whether or not I can be with Chen Xing."
"And in my heart, I've always felt that I wasn't worthy of her. I was the one who fell in love with her first, and I was the one who tried every possible way to appear and disappear from her world. I was the one who always led her to be inseparable from me, but now I don't even have the right to regret it."
Chen Tian never expected Wen Yu to say this, but it was indeed because of Wen Yu's words that he completely changed his opinion of him. Perhaps he was narrow-minded from the beginning.
After all, Chen Tian entered society earlier than Chen Xing, and he protected Chen Xing very closely, so he was a little hostile towards everyone, but Wen Yu was someone who satisfied him.
Chen Tian said: "I'm surprised you think so. You are indeed much better than I thought. No wonder Chen Xing likes you so much. Before this, I was worried about what to do if she liked you too much."
Chen Tian is not against Chen Xingren. As long as Chen Xing likes and cares about something, he will support it unconditionally. However, Wen Yu's family background always makes Chen Tian worried. He is worried that Chen Xing will be hurt if they are together in the future. After all, Chen Xing has no solid backing and no matching family background. Can love alone really last long?
Now after hearing Wen Yu's words and his attitude, he can feel more at ease. At least he has Wen Yu's sincerity. As for the way out, Chen Tian will pave it for Chen Xing.
At this time, Wen Yu had to say: "I can't be with her."
Chen Tian was so surprised that he couldn't believe what he heard and asked, "What did you say?"
Wen Yu repeated again: "I can't be with her."
Chen Tian heard it clearly this time. In the last second, he was still feeling lucky that the person Chen Xing liked truly loved her. In the next second, he heard Wen Yu say such heartbreaking words. How could he calm down?
