"Let's not think about it anymore."
Duan Ye finally calmed down.
Nanxing held his hand, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
It was so hot that it fell onto the back of his hand.
Nanxing forced a smile: "I was wrong, really."
Duan Ye's eyes became somewhat vacant, just like Qi Yue's.
Nanxing felt a pang of heartache every time she looked at it.
She said, "I was really wrong. One wrong step led to another."
“If I hadn’t been so ambitious back then, I wouldn’t have kept pretending to ignore your feelings. Later, when we went to university, although you still liked me a lot, there were so many girls around you. You’re so great, I was really afraid that they would take you away from me. So when Ye Nuan came to me, I investigated her background. I knew... that you two wouldn’t last long.”
"So I pushed her to you. I thought that even if such a bad person was by your side, you would still remember my good points from time to time. I just didn't expect that you would fall in love with someone like that."
"I have no choice but to tell Ye Nuan again and again that you love me."
Duan Ye's left hand was held by Nan Xing, and he dared not move, but the fingers of his right hand were trembling uncontrollably.
So that's the truth...?
Nanxing cried bitterly: "I thought, I thought that as long as you broke up, and I stayed by your side, everything could start over."
"But...I didn't expect..."
Nanxing couldn't continue speaking.
Duan Ye felt a pang of pain and an uncontrollable sense of irony. He never expected that it was because of that breakup that he drowned his sorrows in a bar and met the love of his life.
Nanxing, do you realize your mistake now, and feel the pain?
But this is just the beginning. He remembers everything that happened to you, how you ruined his good intentions, how you killed Ye Nuan, how you almost caused Luo Qingyuan to die on the operating table, and how Grandma Luo passed away.
Duan Ye gently closed his eyes: Nanxing, the worst is yet to come. Don't you love me? Then I will personally send you to court.
The one who tied the knot must untie it.
This is what his brother told him.
The only person who could find Nanxing's weakness and uncover the powerful backer behind her was Duan Ye.
Nanxing wouldn't believe anyone.
Only with Duan Ye, despite all her suspicions, she would never be willing to let him go.
Nanxing seemed to have gone mad, rambling on and on for a long time, making the driver restless. But she seemed to have given up, and finally gently stroked his face, saying, "I hurt you before, so I will treat you the same way you treated me before."
"I know you've suffered a lot of injustices in the past. From now on, I'll make it up to you slowly. No matter how much you throw a tantrum or get angry, I'll take care of it all, okay?"
They grew up together and are the people who know each other best.
When Lian Nanxing got her first period, it was Duan Ye who bought her sanitary napkins.
They can't just let this go.
Nanxing has already given up a lot, but the only thing she is unwilling to give up is Duan Ye.
She thought she would never receive a reply from Duan Ye.
But in the end, Duan Ye opened his eyes and looked at her gently: "Okay."
Nanxing burst into tears of joy, her emotions running high: "Good, good, good, as long as you're still willing to give me a chance, it's not too late."
She leaned gently against Duan Ye, and this time, Duan Ye did not pull away.
Soon, they arrived at No. 1 Middle School.
This is their high school campus. More than ten years have passed, and the place has long been renovated, but the thick sycamore tree on the school playground still stands tall, which makes Nanxing miss it very much.
Around 1 p.m., it was lunchtime for students, so the campus was quite empty, with only a few students scattered on the lawn chatting and reading.
Blue sky and white clouds, clear skies for miles.
Nanxing was in a good mood.
She pointed to the swings not far away and said with a smile, "There used to be wooden swings here, but now they're all decorated so beautifully."
"Do you remember? Every time get out of class ended, you'd rush off like crazy just to grab this swing for me to play on..."
How could Duan Ye forget? The three years of high school were the three years when he first fell in love, the three years when he realized that he had long liked Nanxing. So he worked hard, thinking about being good to Nanxing, and also thinking about... getting into the same university as Nanxing.
Youth is inevitably filled with confusion, and whenever Duan Ye couldn't find his way forward, he would always look to Nanxing.
Duan Ye said, "I remember."
Nanxing was very happy. She was already beautiful, and her smile was even more radiant. Some of the students around her were staring at her in a daze.
That smile looks exactly the same as it did back then.
Duan Ye was momentarily dazed, then asked her, "Do you still remember?"
"What?" Nanxing looked at him with a smile.
Duan Ye pointed to the bushes not far away: "There, there is often a stray cat that hides there no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter. Later, we named the cat Jixiang together and would leave some food from the canteen to feed it every day. Lin Feng and Liu Jie even made a nest for it."
Nanxing paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "I remember. I would buy it sausages from time to time. When we were around, we made Jixiang plump and round, and the teacher praised us."
Duan Ye looked at the pond not far away: "Then, in the first semester of our senior year, when we came back, we found that Jixiang had drowned in it. My classmates and I were very sad, so we dug a hole and buried him."
"He was buried under that sycamore tree."
Nanxing's lips stiffened for a moment.
Duan Ye looked at her and said, "When I went to your house later, Aunt Xie said that you went back to school a week before the start of the semester. I've been wanting to ask you what you did at school."
