Seeing the cars disappearing little by little at the end of the road, Xiao Ye finally stopped with staggering steps, tears welling up from his eyes, sliding down his cheeks and falling to the ground.

He was such a coward that he couldn't even say the words to confess to the girl he liked. In the end, he didn't even have the chance to say a complete goodbye. It was unlikely that Chen Tang could hear the words he shouted regardless of everything! The car had driven so far. Well, maybe it was better not to hear it, she had already left...

The sun in the sky was getting bigger and bigger, and it hurt people's skin. Pedestrians on the road were holding umbrellas or other things to block the sun, only Xiao Ye was still standing in the middle of the road, constantly blaming himself.

When Li Xue and the others found Xiao Ye, his skin had turned red from the sun and he was staggering.

"Xiao Ye, what's wrong with you?" Li Xue pulled Xiao Ye's hand distressedly. Lin Miao and Jian Hui looked at him with worry.

Xiao Ye turned his head to look at them, his body swayed, and then he grinned and said, "Sister, I'm fine, really, don't worry." Then, his eyes went dark and he heard a burst of screams.

"Xiao Ye, what's wrong with you? Wake up..."

When Xiao Ye woke up, he found that he had returned to his room. The room was quiet. He sat up from the bed, still feeling dizzy. He smiled bitterly, thinking that he was hypocritical to have suffered from heatstroke from the sun.

He got off the bed and walked to the door. Just as he was about to open it, he heard faint voices.

"Xiao Ye is such a pitiful child. She kept such a thing a secret and we didn't even notice it. I'm afraid she's really hurt this time. What a pity. If Chen Tang didn't leave..." Jian Hui's voice was filled with some heartache and helplessness.

Xiao Ye smiled bitterly. Even if Chen Tang didn't leave, it was doomed that there would be no possibility for him and her.

"I hope he can get over it as soon as possible. It's really painful to see him like this." Li Xue's voice was full of worry.

Xiao Ye said in his heart, yes, he will soon forget her, but he can't do it now. He didn't know where she was now, and whether she would encounter danger on the road?

He shook his head, drove her shadow out of his mind, then he opened the door and walked out.

"Sister, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry." Xiao Ye said to Li Xue with a forced smile.

Li Xue looked at Xiao Ye's still pale face and swallowed the comfort that was about to come out of her mouth. Some things are better not to be mentioned often. Scars need enough time to heal. If you always reveal them, they will never heal. She smiled and said, "Of course I have, I've been keeping it for you."

Xiao Ye was relieved to see that Li Xue no longer mentioned Chen Tang. He was really a little afraid that they would ask about it.

Jian Hui and Lin Miao followed Li Xue to the kitchen. Lin Miao asked worriedly, "Is Xiao Ye okay?"

"Yes, seeing him like this, I feel bad. This child is already like this, and he is still afraid that we will worry." Jian Hui looked at the thin figure in the living room worriedly. "

Alas, we can't help much with this matter. He has to get over it himself. If he doesn't mention it in the future, we won't ask. Time will dilute everything." Li Xue sighed and took the dish to the dining room.

Xiao Ye forced himself to eat a small bowl of rice. If he wasn't afraid that Li Xue and the others would worry about him, he wouldn't be able to eat anything. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, said hello to a few people, and then went back to the room. Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, he couldn't help but miss that brilliant smiling face. I wonder how she is now?

On the way to ZY Base, Chen Hai and his team found a suitable place for camping before it got dark.

Chen Tang took Mu Mu out of the car and found a place to sit down. She held a small package that Li Xue gave her last night. It contained some snacks she liked to eat, and a bottle of mineral water that Li Xue specifically told her not to drink unless her life was in danger.

She didn't know what was in the water, but when she thought about how Li Xue told her seriously not to let anyone know the origin of the water, she knew that the water Li Xue gave her must be very valuable and might bring trouble to Li Xue. So she decided to take the small package with her before returning to ZY Base. She took

out the snacks from the package and couldn't bear to open it and eat them. What should she do? It was only the first day, and she missed them so much.

She put the snacks back into the small package and pulled out a small pocket watch from her pocket. This pocket watch was given to her by Li Xue. It was exquisitely made and inlaid with several rubies. When she opened the cover of the pocket watch, she saw a small group photo. The people in the photo included her and all the members of the Hope Team. This was two days before the departure. She dragged Li Xue and the others to the population registration office of the base, and used threats and inducements to get the people at the registration office to take this group photo with their cameras.

Looking at the bright smiling faces in the group photo, Chen Tang felt very sad. She gently stroked the photo, and when she saw the fresh face, she suddenly felt a little hot on her face. This Xiao Ye is really something. Why would he suddenly say something like that? When she thought of him stubbornly following her car, Chen Tang's heartbeat quickened. This feeling was so wonderful. She felt a little shy, a little afraid of being discovered, but also felt a little sweet in her heart.

She was not an inexperienced little girl, so of course she knew what this feeling was. But why did she feel so embarrassed and her heartbeat beat so fast towards Xiao Ye? Was it because of what Xiao Ye shouted at the end? It must be like this, otherwise why didn't she feel this way when she saw him every day before? It was

really annoying. Why did he say such words? She couldn't calm down at all. Chen Tang glanced at the smiling face in the photo with some annoyance, and then covered the pocket watch with a snap.

Chen Hai stood in the distance and watched Chen Tang's every move, and couldn't help sighing in his heart. Xiao Tang cried almost all the way, and it was that kind of silent crying, which made him feel very sad. After a lot of effort, he finally saw her stop crying and get off the car to move around, but she looked shy again. He frowned unhappily, thinking of the stubborn look on that boy's face. He was afraid that the boy named Xiaoye would say something to disturb Xiaotang, but he didn't expect that he couldn't stop it in the end.

He knew that there was no possibility for Xiaotang and that boy, and they were completely from two different worlds, but he still didn't want that boy's words to cause trouble to Xiaotang. Now it seems that his idea was right, and Xiaotang was not indifferent.

Alas, I just hope Xiaotang can see the reality and forget about that boy as soon as possible.
