Faced with this sudden confession, Chen Leying was not happy but frightened.
She looked at Zheng Yang in disbelief: "You are my brother, I always treat you as my brother!"
"But I'm not your brother!" Zheng Yang growled, "I don't want to be your brother, I want to be your boyfriend. We can hold hands, kiss, and completely possess each other!"
Chen Leying thought the person in front of her was crazy. "What crazy are you talking about? I can fall in love with anyone, but that person can never be you!"
In fact, influenced by her original family, she has prepared herself to never fall in love or get married in her life.
But Chen Leying chose a more hurtful statement because she had to cut off Zheng Yang's feelings for her.
Zheng Yang's eyes were a little hurt. "Why can't it be me? I'm not your brother. We have no blood relationship. Just because I received your brother's cornea, you exclude me? This is so unfair to me."
Chen Leying pretended not to see the hurt look in his eyes: "How can there be fairness in love? If you don't like it, then you don't like it. You can't force it. In my heart, you are just my brother, nothing more."
She knew that it was unfair to Zheng Yang to treat him as her brother, but she was greedy for the warmth brought by the illusion that her brother was still alive and ignored Zheng Yang's feelings.
I am too selfish.
"Zheng Yang," this was the first time Chen Leying called him by his name, "I don't have any feelings for you beyond brother and sister. Whether now or in the future, I only think of you as a brother."
After leaving these words, Chen Leying got out of the car and left without looking back.
Cutting the Gordian knot is the best way for Zheng Yang.
…
"Chen Leying, your brother is here to see you. Please go to the office."
It was during lunch break when Chen Leying felt someone push her arm, and she immediately opened her eyes alertly.
The fan in the classroom was spinning, bringing a hint of cool breeze.
Chen Leying was stunned. Was she dreaming?
Didn't she drop out of school?
Seeing her stunned look, the head teacher urged, "Your brother is here to see you. He's waiting for you in the office."
Chen Leying was shocked. Hadn't her brother already...
Without thinking too much, she ran to the office.
A young man with an upright figure was standing in the office, holding two bulging bags full of food.
Chen Leying stared at him blankly for three seconds, then rushed over and hugged Chen Leping: "Brother!"
Tears soaked Chen Leping's clothes. He rubbed Chen Leying's head and asked, "Do you miss me so much?"
Chen Leying just kept crying and was completely speechless.
At this moment, she didn't want to delve into whether what had happened was a dream or not. She just wanted to be with her brother forever.
Chen Leping took great pains to appease his sister. He had a hunch that something was wrong with her abnormal behavior.
"Yingying, what's wrong with you?" he asked cautiously, "Did someone bully you at school?"
Chen Leying shook her head, "No, I just had a terrible nightmare."
She didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she took the initiative to end the topic, "Brother, why did you come to see me suddenly?"
"I'm here on a business trip and came to see you on the way." Chen Leping said, "The college entrance examination is coming soon, you should do your best."
Chen Leying said, "Brother, please take some time to get a physical examination."
Chen Leping was a little confused, "Huh? What's wrong?"
Why did he suddenly go for a physical examination?
Chen Leying lowered her eyes and made up an excuse, "The father of a classmate in our class had a physical examination and was diagnosed with an incurable disease."
"I'm your brother, young and strong. I'm in great shape and enjoy eating everything. Nothing will happen to me." Chen Leping said with a smile.
Chen Leying said seriously, "Brother, you must go for a physical examination!"
The pain of losing her brother in the dream was too unforgettable, and she didn't want to experience it again.
Chen Leping spread his hands: "Okay, I promise you. I'll go for a physical examination after I finish the project at hand."
Chen Leying thought for a moment and said, "I'll go with you after I finish the college entrance exam."
She had to see her brother's medical report with her own eyes to feel at ease.
Chen Leping felt that his sister was really abnormal today. Then he thought that maybe she was frightened by what happened to her classmate's father, which was why she was so nervous.
So he agreed, "Okay, then we have a deal. After you finish the college entrance examination, we will pick a Sunday and go with me for a physical examination."
Chen Leying finally felt relieved.
Next is the college entrance examination.
Chen Leying had excellent grades and performed exceptionally well in the college entrance examination. The moment she walked out of the examination room, she knew she had secured a place in the university of her choice.
"When I was in college, I worked part-time to pay for my studies. I worked as a sorter on the assembly line in an electronics factory..."
A sentence suddenly popped up in my mind.
Chen Leying stopped to think.
Who said this?
It feels so familiar...
"Yingying, over here!" Chen Leping was waving at her excitedly among the crowd of people who came to accompany the exam not far away.
Chen Leying shook off the previous thought and quickly walked up to Chen Leping, "Brother, I've finished the exam."
Chen Leping didn't ask her how she did on the exam, "To celebrate your college entrance exam, I'm taking you out for a nice dinner!"
Although they said they were going to have a big meal, Chen Leping actually drove her to an outdoor gear store.
Chen Leying was a little surprised. "Aren't we going to eat? Why are you here?"
Chen Leping smiled and said, "There's a meteor shower tonight. Let's go watch it and camp outdoors! Haven't you always been looking forward to camping? You've mentioned it to me several times before."
Camping in the wild?
Chen Leying did mention it to her brother several times.
Now that her wish is about to come true, why can't she feel a little bit of anticipation?
It was like...she had been camping in the wild countless times?
"What are you daydreaming about? Let's go buy some camping equipment first." Chen Leping pulled her into the store.
As soon as the two entered the store, the chubby boss came up to them with a smile on his face: "Sir or Madam, what would you like to buy?"
Chen Leping started chatting with the boss and soon bought the necessary camping equipment.
The boss helped move all the equipment into the trunk of the car, and Chen Leping navigated the car to the destination.
Chen Leying sat in the passenger seat, watching the scenery flash by outside the car window.
I don’t know how long the car had been driving, but it was passing by a factory called “Anxin×××”.
Chen Leying felt that the name of this factory was extremely familiar, but when she thought about it more deeply, her head began to ache.
She stopped thinking about the name and her headache soon eased.
The car drove for another half an hour and finally arrived at the destination.
Chen Leping parked the car at the foot of the mountain, then found a suitable place for camping nearby and began to prepare ingredients for dinner.
"How about we use local ingredients tonight and go to the river to catch some fish for barbecue?" Chen Leping suggested excitedly, holding a fishing net.
Chen Leying: "Okay."
